But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting(天气预报). ‎ For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(关节) hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow(彩虹) during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog(雾) appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.‎ Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.‎ ‎50. Which of the following can be used here to replace(取代) the underlined phrase “on the way”?‎ ‎ A. away B. gone C. disappearing D. coming ‎51.

Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.‎ ‎ （7）‎ One of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking.

If you are in a tall building, don't use the lift and never jump out of the windows. When you are in a living room, find a strong table or rush into a smaller room like washroom. Then lie down your body. Take care of your head. When you are in a public place, like supermarket or cinema, don't crowd in jam(拥挤) , or you may fall over and get hurt.

We'll share what we have with them.”‎ I filled a box with foods and clothes. While I was doing this，I encouraged(鼓励) the boys to choose their toys and donate some of their less favorite things.

I soon found myself at the center of a crazy activity, in the middle of doctors, policemen and passers-by. A large can opener was used to get me out of my broken car and into an ambulance(救护车).‎ Over the next eight hours, I was taken to hospital, tested with X-ray and diagnosed (诊断) with a broken neck. Knowing that I’d been saved from death encouraged me throughout the long wait in the hospital and helped me deal with the countless visitors.‎ Only after I was sure that the last friend had left, could I direct my energies inwards. Flying in and out of my line of vision during my hospital stay was the Red Cross lady, a gentle presence in white who, from time to time, came in to offer cups of tea. After the visitors had gone, she came up to me and checked if I was all right.‎ I found myself telling her everything about the accident, my fears for my family as a result of my injuries (伤)—about my whole life. While I waited for an ambulance to take me to another hospital, she stood by my bed and held my hand as I off-loaded all the emotion I’d hidden from my family. She listened, quiet and patient.‎ Even now, the knowledge that I have the ways to get in touch with her provides me with great comfort. I look forward to a day in the near future when my angel (天使) and I can meet again, in happier situation.‎ In times of danger, faith (真诚) can encourage us.

But I think those of us who live in large cities in Asia would be cheating ourselves if we said this is the only time we are busy shopping. No, from Bangkok to Singapore, from Shanghai to Manila, shopping—especially shopping in large centers—is a year-round activity.‎ Shopping centers are good. They show Asia’s surprising economic (经济的) growth, and how far we have come in such a short time. For many of the older generation who can remember a time when everyone lived in villages and there was no running water, the air-conditioned centre means comfort, choice, luxury (豪华) and better times.‎ Nowadays, it seems our usual activities happen in the centre—it’s where we shop, eat, watch movies, meet our friends or just generally walk around.‎ Further more, we have come to regard shopping centers as important landmarks or tourist attractions(吸引). Whole generations of Asians are growing up to think that, besides home and school, the shopping center is the most natural place to be.‎ My idea about shopping centers is not that they are often big buildings that look quite different from other parts in a city, or that they promote (促进) shopping at a time when our planet can hardly afford it. My main idea about centers is that they don’t really seem to make us happy. The large advertisements outside the stores could make us think that if we only had this pair of jeans, or if we hung out at this café drinking coffee, then we could feel more successful. But once we buy something, we only want to buy something more—as everyone already knows.‎ Shopping centers, even though they try to look as welcoming as possible, can be unkind places. To make us buy, they must make us feel that we are short of something, or that everyone else has something we do not yet own. We must want to surpass others or at the very least to keep up. How can this thought always trying to be cool bring us true joy?‎ The saddest thing is that the modern centre has stopped us from many beautiful, necessary and important activities. We have no one to blame (责怪) but ourselves. Instead of shopping, we could be cooking, visiting a nearby waterfall, going to the beach, reading a novel, taking a long walk, playing a sport, learning a dance or visiting each other’s homes.‎ Every time we have a spare piece of land, all we can think of building on it is yet another centre. Perhaps instead, we should be building libraries, theatres, museums, sports halls, public swimming pools, parks—the list is endless. We might even consider leaving that land alone. This is something that the centre may have caused us to forget—in order to be happy, we must create as well as consume (消费).‎ ‎57. What is the writer’s attitude towards shopping centers?‎ A. He likes them very much. B. He doesn’t like them at all.‎ C. He likes them only a little. D. He doesn’t like all of them.‎ ‎58. Why do more and more shopping centers appear in some Asian countries?‎ A. Because economy in the world develops very fast.‎ B. Because shopping centers have attracted tourists all over the world.‎ C. Because people go shopping in large shopping centers all year round.‎ D. Because shopping centers have become an important part in everyone’s life.‎ ‎59. What is the greatest disadvantage of shopping centers, according to the writer?‎ A. They don’t seem to make us happy.‎ B. They lead us to buy more and more things.‎ C. They force us to give up many other activities.‎ D. They have us fall into endless competition with others.‎ ‎60. Which of the following is not true?‎ A. It is very easy for us to find a shopping centre in a big city.‎ B. There are usually all kinds of services in a shopping center.‎ C. The government must be responsible for the writer’s sadness.‎ D. Besides shopping, there’re many other activities we can enjoy.‎ ‎【答案】（A）48A49C50D（B）51C52A53B （C）54B55A56D ‎（D）57B58D59C60.C ‎（16）‎ My friend, Victor, is a zoo keeper in the National Zoo. His work is very interesting but it is hard. Sometimes it is dangerous, too. Every morning the zoo keepers have to get up at five to prepare the food for the animals. Each kind of animal is given special food. For example, the lions must be given meat; the deer must be given grass and leaves; and the parrots must be given fruit and nuts. Sometimes some animals won't let the others eat their food. If this happens, each of them must be fed separately(分离地) . ‎ Every morning each cage must be washed by the zoo keepers. This can be dangerous, especially with lions and tigers. To make the work easier, the animals are locked in the sleeping compartments (隔间) while the cages are being washed. When the animals are sick, the zoo keepers must look after them. Each sick animal ‎ is kept in a separate cage and given medicine. Sometimes they must be given injections. It is not easy to inject（打针） a sick lion!‎ All the keepers live near the zoo. Each of them has a small house. There he lives with his family. They do not have holidays on Sundays and public holidays. Instead, each of them has a day off during the week. Each keeper has a holiday on a different day from that of the other keepers. ‎ The most important job of the keepers is to look after the safety of the visitors. People must be prevented from doing dangerous things. Many people have been injured because they did careless things, like putting their hands into the lion's cage. ‎ ‎31. What kind of food must be given to the animals like tigers, lions and bears?‎ A. Nuts. B. Fruit. C. Meat. D. Grass and leaves. ‎ ‎32.

And just because some Americans thought that if we had a Mother’s Day, we should also have a Father’s Day. Father’s Day has become important in North America. And shopkeepers found it was a good way to get people to buy presents for their fathers, presents from their shops.‎ By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though some have Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will also become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day?

An excellent example of this happened when Britain and China worked together to bring the Milu deer back to China.‎ Milu deer, a kind of animal with large horns(角), used to be common in China long ago. Like other deer they lived together and ate grass and the soft parts of trees. Milu deer were often killed for food or sport. The Ming and Qing dynasties(朝代) did not protect them and many were killed. That is how the Milu deer disappeared from China.‎ Luckily before all of them were killed, some were taken to Britain to improve the environment of the beautiful park which belonged to the Duke of Bedford. He liked them so much that he took them from China to Britain. Milu deer liked the cool, wet weather in England and their number increased year by year. As a result, when in 1985 the government of China wanted to bring back the Milu deer, the Duke of Bedford was able to help. The first deer came back to China to the Nanhaizi Milu Park 20 kilometers south of Beijing and the centre in Dafeng‎, ‎Jiangsu province.‎ The deer certainly seem happy to be back in China because their number has grown quickly. There are now so many of them that a new park has been opened for them in Hubei‎ ‎Province. At the moment the Milu deer live in centres where they are being well protected and cared for. It is hoped that one day there will be enough animals to let them live in the wild again. ‎ ‎54. The Milu deer disappeared long ago in China because .‎ A. they were not well protected B. they could find nothing to eat C. they died of a serious disease D. they had the habit of living together ‎55. After some of the Milu deer were taken to Britain, .‎ A. people used them to carry things ‎ B. the Duke of Beford sold them all C. they didn’t like the weather there D. their number became larger and larger ‎56. What’s the best title of the passage?‎ ‎ A. The number of the Mulu deer. B. The life of the Milu deer.‎ C. The return of the Milu deer. D. The importance of the Milu deer.‎ ‎（33）Train-spotting Many people around the world have seen Danny Boyle’s movie Train spotting starring Ewan McGregor, but how many of us really know what train-spotting is all about? Now this is not considered cool in town and the word “train-spotter” in Britain is related to “geek” or “nerd” (someone who seems very ridiculous). But is this reputation really deserved?‎ First of all, let’s see what train-spotting is. It is said that there are some 100,000 train spotters in the UK. Exactly as the title suggests, they spot trains, that is, they stand in train stations, look at the number of each train that leaves and arrives and write it down. The eventual aim is to have seen every train in the country. ‎ ‎ Being crazy about railways and trains is not modern and it dates back to 1804. As the number of trains grew and they got faster and faster, so did the interest in them grow? Is this any stranger than people who love cars?‎ ‎ So, what do you need to be a train-spotter? Well, all you really need is a pen or pencil and a notebook to write down the train numbers. Other equipment(装备) includes hot tea in a thermos, a camera and some sandwiches for those long afternoons spent on train platforms when you don’t want to risk the delights of railway station food. ‎ ‎ It’s interesting to note that despite the “bad name” of train-spotting, there have been famous railway lovers in history, such as Alfred Hitchcock, who filmed them regularly, especially The 39 Steps. There is evidence, too, that being a train-spotter is not necessarily a strange phenomenon（现象）in Britain.‎ ‎ One glance at the US train stations should be enough to convince you that train-spotters there are alive and well. In America, they try to call rail lovers “train-fans” and talk of “train-fanning”. Don’t let this fool you—these people are train spotters and there are a lot of them. Each month, two million pages are visited on the website TrainWeb.org. ‎ ‎57. What is train-spotting according to the passage?‎ A. A kind of hobby. B. A type of sport.‎ C. A strange phenomenon. D. A special job.‎ ‎58. Which of the following about train-spotters is true according to the passage?‎ A. They number each train they see.‎ B. They keep a careful path of every train.‎ C. They count the trains passing in front of them.‎ D. They produce films about trains with video cameras.‎ ‎59. The writer writes the passage to . ‎ A. introduce some famous train-spotters B. encourage readers to do more train-spotting C. try to present a true picture of train-spotting D. describe the necessary equipment in train-spotting ‎60. What do we learn from the passage? ‎ A. Train-spotters in the UK want to fool people. ‎ B. Train-spotting is more acceptable in America.‎ C. Train-spotters are much stranger than car lovers.‎ D. Train-spotting relates to（与…有关）a dangerous lifestyle.‎ ‎【答案】48．B 49．C 50．D 51．A 52．D 53．C 54．A 55．D 56．C 57．A 58．B 59．C 60．B ‎（34）‎ At the shopping mall, you probably think about spending, not saving. Think about all the lights that keep the mall bright. Think about all the water faucets in the toilet. Think about all the air conditioning in summer. Saving energy is a hot topic for such a big place!‎ ‎　　Many things at the mall use energy. Electric lights, infrared faucets and air-conditioners need electricity to work. One way to save energy is by keeping lights clean. More and more dust and dirt make the lights less bright.

Astronauts at the ISS may soon do so.‎ NASA(美国航空航天局) said it would use a high-tech machine to recycle wastewater at the ISS. The machine will recycle water for washing hands, shower water, water for brushing teeth and even urine to make drinking water. It will save millions of dollars each year.‎ At present, each ISS astronaut uses about 4.4 liters(升) of water every day. It costs about 24 million dollars a year to send water up to the ISS. A liter of water costs about $ 11,000.‎ The machine will be sent to the ISS later. NASA hopes it will recycle about 93% of all the water used on the station.‎ Will the water be clean? Different chemicals will be put in the wastewater. The water will be heated to ‎130℃‎ to kill bacteria(细菌). Scientists say that the recycled water is thousands of times better than the water from a city tap.‎ ‎41.

The high-tech machine can only recycle urine to make water.‎ ‎ (37)‎ In the past ten years, many scientists have studied the differences between men and women. And they all got the same answer: The sexes(性别) are different, because their brains are different. And this, the scientists say, makes men and women see the world in different ways.‎ Boys, for example, generally are better than girls at mathematical(数学的) ideas. Boys also generally are better than girls at the kind of hand and eye movements necessary for ball sports. Girls, on the other hand generally start speaking earlier than boys. And they generally(通常) see better in the dark than boys and are better at learning foreign languages.‎ What makes men and women better at one thing or another? The answer is the brain. The brain has two sides connected by nerve(神经) tracks. The left side generally is used for mathematics, speech and writing. The right side is used for artistic creation(创造) and the expression for emotions(情感). In men and women, different areas in each side of the brain develop differently. In boys, for example, it’s the area used for mathematics. In girls, it is the area used for language skills. Another interesting difference is that the two sides of a man’s brain are connected by a smaller nerves than the two sides of a woman’s brain are.‎ ‎46.

She began studying medical reports in the library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart surgeon (外科医生), Dr. Michael DeBakey, of Houston‎, ‎Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same disease. The article said Dr. DeBakey’s fees were very high; Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay?‎ ‎ So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four more years, her little girl was dreaming of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity---only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer.‎ ‎ A few days later, my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t wait to come in; she stood in the hall and read aloud: “Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply. If you can come to Houston, there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation. Signed—Michael DeBakey.”‎ That was seven years ago. Since then, Aunt Edith has been around the world. Her three children are happily married. For her age, she is one of the youngest, most alive people I know----all because of an open heart surgeon who knew how to honor his profession, and how to open his own heart. ‎ ‎66.

You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better scholar if he or she wants to. Here’s how.‎ ‎1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making the list, you should make a schedule（日程表）of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will make you realize what is happening to your time.‎ ‎2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.‎ ‎3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.‎ ‎4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.‎ ‎5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge.‎ The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.‎ There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.‎ ‎61. A schedule will help you _____.‎ ‎ A. finish your work quickly B. solve all your problems ‎ C. find more time for your habits D. know what is happening to your time ‎62.

How to Review Your Lessons ‎ （42）‎ ‎ Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, you’ll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isn’t enough for consumers（消费者）these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items（商品）that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, don’t buy anything just because it’s cheaper than usual! “New and Improved!” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of ingredients（成分）on the back. Then compare prices; that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands（品牌）and different sizes of the same brand.‎ ‎ Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount（折扣）clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores aren’t very attractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores.‎ ‎ Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials（广告）, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology（心理学）behind the ads. In other words, well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.‎ ‎66. Why does the writer suggest that you shouldn’t go into a supermarket hungry?‎ ‎ A. Because you may buy more than you plan to. B. Because you may feel tired.‎ ‎ C. Because you may forget to buy enough things. D. Because you may lose your way.‎ ‎67. Before you decide to buy things, you should _____.‎ ‎ A. make sure whether they are on sale B. consider if you really need them ‎ C. examine the prices of different brands D. read the words on the front of the package ‎68. The writer suggests consumers buy ordinary products because _____.‎ ‎ A. they come in plain packages B. they are advertised on newspapers ‎ C. they are both good and cheaper D. the quality is better than that of famous ones ‎69. The main idea of the last paragraph is that _____.‎ ‎ A. ads and commercials sometimes tell lies ‎ B. advertisers sometimes hide some information C. good consumers never read ads and commercials D. we should make good use of ads and commercials ‎70. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. The writer suggests that you should buy the items on sale.‎ ‎ B. The quality of ordinary items is usually bad.‎ ‎ C. People prefer ordinary items to famous brands.‎ ‎ D. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money.‎ ‎【答案】56~60DCBAA 61~65DACDB 66~70ABCDD ‎（44）‎ ‎ Dick lived in England.
