When a baby sees a ball, the baby may reach out for it. If the baby is very young, and you __21____the ball behind a pillow (枕頭), then the ball ______22 exists for the child. As the child grows older, the child will move the pillow to get the ball. Even though the child cannot see the ball, the ball still exists. This is an early example of “l(fā)earning to see the __23____”.
Just about all of us have __24____, so we all think we can see. But, in __25____ we are all blind to probably 99% of the world. Because___26____ people realize this, few people make the attempt to learn more, in order to see more. Just like a child, what we don’t see doesn’t exist.
__27_____, because most of us are blind to 99% of the world, we rely on others to give us the answers. We willingly allow doctors, lawyers, priests, and politicians to tell us what to do or think, but they take no responsibility when the results go wrong. Commercial television, radio, newspapers, and magazines are largely corporate owned, profit driven, and focus more on distraction and misinformation than on education. Yet, we continue reading, watching and listening to commercial media under the illusion that we are learning. Corporate (法人的) media is education with blinders. They only show you the __28____ picture, and, in this way, they control public opinion. __29___ needs to turn to noncommercial television, radio, and Internet world news to get the big picture.

A
Language learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises. Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since these can’t be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This self-imitation（模仿）leads on to deliberate（有意的）imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. It is a problem we need to get out. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world .Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.
41. Before children start speaking________.
A. they need equal amount of listening
B. they need different amounts of listening
C. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructions
D. they can’t understand and obey the adult’s oral instructions
42. Children who start speaking late ________.
A. may have problems with their listening
B. probably do not hear enough language spoken around them
C. usually pay close attention to what they hear
D. often take a long time in learning to listen properly
43. A baby’s first noises are ________.
A. an expression of his moods and feelings
B. an early form of language
C. a sign that he means to tell you something
D. an imitation of the speech of adults
44. The problem of deciding at what point a baby’s imitations can be considered as speech________.
A. is important because words have different meanings for different people
B. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with age
C. is not especially important because the changeover takes place gradually
D. is one that should be completely ignored（忽略）because children’s use of words is often meaningless
45. The author implies________.
A. parents can never hope to teach their children new sounds
B. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating
C. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak
D. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quickly
B
As
the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of
relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go
from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential
for a healthy mind and body.
Stress is a natural
part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the
bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to
provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets
out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities, others lose heart at the first sign of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "flight or fight" and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Since we can't remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.
46. People are finding less
and less time for relaxing themselves because _____.
A. they regard working as their greatest enjoyment
B. they believe that work is superior to relaxation
C. they are traveling fast all the time
D. they are becoming busier with their work than ever before
47. According to the author, the most important character for a good manager is his _____.
A. strong will to hold out stress
B. knowing the art of relaxation
C. high sense of responsibility
D. having control over performance
48. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the passage?
A. We can find quite a few ways to avoid stress.
B. Stress is always harmful to people's health
C. It's easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.
D. Different people can bear different amount of stress.
49. In the last sentence of the passage, "do so" refers to _____.
A. "expose ourselves to stress"
B. "find ways to deal with stress"
C. "remove stress from our lives"
D. "establish links between diseases and stress"
50. According to the author, the right attitude toward stress is _____.
A. to avoid it B. to try to cope with it
C. to regard it as a vital motivation D. to find some relaxation
C
In a
few years, you might be able to speak Chinese, Korean, Japanese, French,and
English―and all at the same time. This sounds incredible, but Alex Waibel,a
computer science professor at US's Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and
One application, called Lecture Translation, can easily translate a speech from one language into another. Current translation technologies typically limit speakers to certain topics or a limited vocabulary. Users also have to be trained how to use the programme.?
Another prototype(雛形機) can send translations of a speech to different listeners depending on what language they speak. “It is like having a simultaneous translator right next to you but without disturbing the person next to you,” Waibel said.?
Prefer to read? So-called Translation Glasses transcribe(轉錄) the translations on a tiny liquid-crystal(液晶) display(LCD) screen.?
Then there's the Muscle Translator. Electrodes capture the electrical signals from facial muscle movements made naturally when a person is mouthing words. The signals are then translated into speech. The electrodes could be replaced with wireless chips implanted in a person's face, according to researchers.?
During a demonstration held
last Thursday in CMU's
This particular gadget(器械),when fully developed, might allow anyone to speak in any number of languages or, as Waibel put it, “to switch your mouth to a foreign language”. “The idea behind the university's prototypes is to create ‘good enough’ bridges for cross-cultural exchanges that are becoming more common in the world,” Waibel said.?
With spontaneous(自發(fā)的) translators, foreign drivers in Germany could listen to traffic warnings on the radio, tourists in China could read all the signs and talk with local people, and leaders of different countries could have secret talks without any interpreters there.?
51. Which of the following statements is not true ?
A. A lecture translation can translate what you said into other languages easily.?
B. Muscle Translators can translate what you think into speech if you just move your mouth.?
C. There is no Muscle Translator in the world now.
D. The spontaneous translators will help us a lot.
52. What kind of equipment is NOT mentioned in this passage?
A. Lecture Translation. B. Multiple Translator.
C. Muscle Translator.? D. Translation Prototype.
53. What's the final destination of inventing the language translators??
A. To make cultural exchanges between different countries easier.?
B. To help students learn foreign languages more easily.?
C. To make people live in foreign countries more comfortably.?
D. To help people learn more foreign languages in the future.
54. What can be inferred from the seventh paragraph?
A. The translator is so good that it can translate any language into the very language you need.?
B. The translator is becoming more and more common in the world as a bridge.?
C. With the help of the translator, you only need to open your mouth when you want to say something without saying the exact words at all.?
D. The translator needs to be improved before being put into market.
55. Where can this passage probably be excerpted from?
A. A newspaper. B. A magazine on science.?
C. A fairy tale. D. A scientific fantasy book.
第二節(jié) 信息匹配(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)
閱讀下列應用文及相關信息，并按照要求匹配信息。請在答題卡上將對應題號的相應選項字母涂黑。
首先，請閱讀下面有關購車的五條建議：
5 steps to getting the best price in buying a new car.
Ideally, a dealership should help you find the right vehicle at a fair price. But some dealers place more emphasis on their profit margins than on satisfying their customers.
Read the following situations and match the advice with them.
56. Many dealerships prey on the unprepared. Going into a showroom “cold”--without having gathered key facts and preliminary(初步的) pricing figures--gives the salesperson too much control over the buying process.
57. The dealer invoice price is commonly available on Web sites and in pricing guides. But the invoice price isn't necessarily what the dealer paid. There are often behind-the-scenes bonuses（幕后紅利）, such as dealer incentives and holdbacks, that give the dealer more profit margin.
58. Salespeople like to mix financing, leasing, and trade-in negotiations together, often asking you to negotiate around a monthly payment figure. This tactic（策略） gives the dealer more latitude to offer you a favorable figure in one area while inflating figures in another.
59. The salesperson may try to sign you up for a higher rate than you could get elsewhere.
60. Dealers often try to sell you extras such as rust proofing, fabric protection, and paint protectant, or push etching your Vehicle Identification Number on windows to deter thieves.
請結合以上情形，與下面的建議進行匹配。
When buying a car, keep your interests front and center--and avoid common pitfalls（缺陷） that can cost you extra money--by following these tips:
A. Don't assume that the sticker price（標價） is the purchase price（買價）.
To get the lowest price, go in with a starting price that's based not on the sticker price but on how much the dealer paid for the vehicle.
A reasonable price to start negotiations is either 4 to 8 percent over what the dealer paid or the CR Wholesale Price, depending on the demand for the model.
B. Do your homework.
Thoroughly research your choices. Read a variety of reviews. Check the reliability, safety, fuel economy, and pricing of any models you're considering. And don't wait until the day you plan to buy to test drive the vehicles. If you have a trade-in, know its approximate worth. That will depend on the vehicle's age, condition, mileage, and equipment, as well as where you trade it in.
C. Negotiate one thing at one time.
Make clear that you want the lowest possible mark-up over your starting price. Add that you intend to visit other dealerships selling the same vehicle and will buy from the dealer with the best price.
Only after you've settled on the price should you discuss financing, leasing, or a trade-in, as necessary. Negotiate each item individually. Remember, you're in charge and can leave at any time. Heading for the door can sometimes jump-start a slow-moving negotiation or bring a lower offer.
D. Don't pay for extras you don't need.
Don't accept those unnecessary services and fees. If the items are on the bill of sale, put a line through them. Vehicle bodies are already coated to protect against rust. And CR reliability surveys show that rust is not a major problem with modern cars. You can treat upholstery and apply paint protectant yourself with good off-the-shelf products. You can also do your own VIN etching with a kit that costs about $25.
E. Other costs.
In addition to the vehicle price, you need to consider other costs, including: Sales tax ; Registration fees ; Insurance premiums
Taxes and registration fees can increase your out-of-pocket cost by as much as 10 percent or more, and driving a car that’s worth more than your current one will cost more to insure. Be sure to check with your insurance agent or get insurance quotes online so you understand what you’re getting into.
F. Arrange financing in advance.
Compare interest rates at several banks, credit unions, and loan organizations before checking the dealer's rates. If pre-approved for a loan, you can keep financial arrangements out of the negotiations. Automakers may offer attractive financing terms, but make sure you qualify for them.

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
There are two major teaching methods in schools: the lecture system and the discussion system.
The two teaching methods have their own strengths and weaknesses respectively.
Many students like the lecture system because it helps them to learn quickly and much more. Attending a well-prepared lecture is a most rewarding experience: it can open a new horizon for you and save you much time as well ? the time you might otherwise spend reading one book after another. Yet the fault of the lecture system is that it cultivates a bad habit of passive learning. Students bring their notebooks and even tape recorders to class to write everything down without thinking for themselves, let alone raise any question to teachers.
On the contrary, the discussion system encourages students to form their own ideas and opinion. To engage in frequent and even heated debates, you have to do a lot of homework beforehand, find answers yourselves and thus you develop the analytical skills which benefit both your study habit and your future life. However, it also has its weakness: students do not learn systematically.

答案與解析
完形填空
本文講述學習是為了看到未知的。人類雖有眼睛，但對世界上99%的事物熟視無睹。幾乎很少人認識到這一點。人們都有依賴心理，我們依靠別人給我們答案。商業(yè)媒體大都是利益驅使，更多聚焦在娛樂或誤傳，很少關注教育。Corporate (法人的) media is education with blinders.。人人都需要非商業(yè)的媒體以獲得the big picture。
21. A 根據文章，把球“放”到枕頭下，嬰孩就認為沒有球了。
22. 因no longer意思是“不再”。其他選項邏輯不符。
23. B 上下文告訴我們，教育就是學習“未知的，看不見的”Education is learning to see the invisible.
24. D 眼睛才能“see”。
25. B 因in reality意思是“實際上，事實上”。in return是“作為回報”，in short是“簡言之”，in case是“以防萬一”。根據上下文，選Ｂ。
26. B 根據后句的排比，邏輯上應該選Ｂ。
27. A most of us are blind to 99% of the world是一件不幸的事。
28. B 根據Corporate (法人的) media is education with blinders. They only …和and Internet world news to get the big picture.的對應關系，應該選little。
29. A 下一句的排比可以幫助我們作出判斷。
30. C 因see through是“看清，了解”，因為作者建議我們turn to noncommercial media for more information。
語法填空
本文講中國學生在國外學習，喜歡home stay。如今上海的白領免費接收國外學生到家里住，以跟他們學習英語為交換條件。
31. international根據文章內容，英語為本族語的學生是“國際”學生，作定語用形容詞形式。
32.up 因表示“擔起責任”是take up the responsibility。

閱讀理解
(A)本文講語言學習從聽開始，聽得越多，講得越好。嬰孩兒起初的聲音不算語言，而是一種情感的表達。但從何時開始算語言并不重要，因為這個轉變是個漸變過程。孩子即使開始講話，他們始終還是喜歡模仿。
41. B 細節(jié)題。由文章開頭第二句可知。
42. D 細節(jié)題。由文章第二句中and later starters are often long listeners可知，開始講話越晚，學聽的時間就越長。
43. A 細節(jié)題。由第六句可知，作者認為這些noises不屬于語言，是孩子情感的表達形式。
44. C 細節(jié)題。根據文章It is a problem we need to get out可知，作者認為難以界定，沒有特殊界線，屬于自然過渡，是漸變過程。
45. B 推測判斷題。由最后一句的前半句可以推斷出，孩子始終喜歡模仿。
(B)本文講述當今社會人們面臨很大壓力，壓力無法避免，人們承受壓力的限度不同，在壓力面前如何放松自己，坦然面對。
46. D 推斷題。由第一段可推知，無法放松自己主要是比以前任何時候都要忙碌。
47. A 推斷題。由第三段第二句可推知，當好管理者的優(yōu)良品質是要具有堅強的抵制壓力的意志。句中prime material意為“一流的素質”。
48. D 細節(jié)題。由第三段第一句可The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual.可知。
49. C 猜義題。由Since we can't remove stress from our lives…可知括號里的內容是對前文的解釋。
50. B 態(tài)度題。最后一句表明了作者的態(tài)度。
(C)這是一篇科技發(fā)明成果的闡述。不久的將來，全世界操不同語言的人們就可以通過這種機器進行無障礙交流了。
51. C 細節(jié)題。根據文章第六段可推出C項是錯誤的。?
52. B 細節(jié)題。第二段中提到了Lecture Translation,第三段提到了prototype,第五段又提到Muscle Translator,因而沒有被提到的應該是B項。
53. A 作者意圖題。由倒數第二段 “The idea behind the university's prototypes is to create good enough bridges for cross-cultural exchanges that are becoming more common in the world.”(隱藏在雛形機背后的理念是為今后世界上越來越普通的跨文化交流搭建足夠好的橋梁)可以推斷出A項就是發(fā)明翻譯器的真正目的。?
54. D 推斷題。短文倒數第二段中的“This particular gadget, when fully developed...”意為“當這種特別的器械得以充分的改進?時……?”，由此可以推出：目前這種器械尚在發(fā)展完善之中。?
55. B 推斷題。這篇文章是有關科技發(fā)明成果的闡述，根據常識，它極有可能會節(jié)選自科學雜志。
信息匹配
本題講買車的幾條建議。
56. B 代理商prey on無準備的，給銷售人員全程控制。購車前的準備工作與經銷商喜歡控制那些無準備的吻合。
57. A 發(fā)票價目不一定是經銷商要付的，往往有幕后的利潤空間。主要講價格問題，與發(fā)票價，與經銷商紅利有關。
58. C 銷售人員喜歡用各種策略來忽悠購買者，如月付，折扣等，使在不同地方的開支顯得不同。談價要表現對同產品的其它店家很熟悉，買哪家的主動權在你。
59. F 銷售人員可能跟你簽比在別處買更高的價格。這種情況下，先對比多家銀行利率。
60. D 經銷商經常試圖賣給你額外的項目如防銹處理等。 extras是本題的核心詞。

Best Means to Acquire Knowledge
Knowledge may be acquired through many ways, one of which is from traveling and another is by conversation, especially one with a great man. A person may also become knowledgeable through other ways such as listening to the radio, watching television or, the best way, through reading. But, there exists one problem about reading because there are all kinds of books in society. Good books are beneficial to our soul while bad ones are harmful to our mind. Therefore, it is of great importance for readers to read good books and reject harmful ones.
讀寫任務(One possible version)
The above passage compares the advantages and disadvantages of the two major teaching methods in schools: the lecture system and the discussion system.
Actually, some students like classes where teachers lecture (do all of the talking) in class, While others prefer classes where the students do some of the talking.
I prefer the lecture system for three reasons: I am used to the lecture system; it is an efficient system; I am too shy to talk in class. All my school life, I have listened to teachers. The lecture system is an efficient one. I want the teacher to give me as much information as he or she can during the class period. I hate it when the class is full of laughter or gossips.
I hope I can always study in a school or university where they use the lecture system. I think it is better to continue with what one is used to.
