11、 introduced a new policy to prevent students aged 11 to 18 (17)_ (use) slangs and colloquial abbreviations (口语化的缩写) inside the school. Harris Academy Upper Norwood said it carried out the program to allow its students (18)_ (express) themselves confidently and appropriately. (19)_ we want to make su

12、re of is that they are confident in using standard English. Slang doesnt really give the right impression of the person. Young people going to interviews for their first job need to make a good impression (20)_ _ employers will have confidence in them. Donna Bowater at the Telegraph writes that shor

13、t forms of words (21)_ (become) popular with the rise of text messages and the social networking website Twitter in the past few years.“In addition to (22)_ (give) students the teaching they need to succeed academically, we want them to develop the soft skills (23)_ they will need to compete for job

14、s and university places,” the school was quoted as saying in a statement by the BBC.(24)_ the above-mentioned support, South Yorkshire MP Angela Smith said that the policy might cause a risk to dialects (方言) and accents. Some critics argued that slangs provided students with an environment (25)_ the

15、y could feel both the history and development of languages. The widespread argument is making people wonder (26)_ it is necessary to cut the use of slangs entirely or not. All in all, different opinions of the policy help us have a deeper understanding of the truth that language is always changing w

16、ith the times.Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once.

Over recent years, this type of travel has been steadily gaining _28_ as more people search for new travel experiences.It is obviou

18、s that eco-tourism is beneficial in many aspects. First, all the money spent by the tourists is used to _29_ the important environmental spots they visit. Second, it helps visitors to better understand the environment, which is sure to _30_ their knowledge of the world. Furthermore, this style of tr

19、avel is also more _31_ of the local culture.Compared to normal tourists, eco-tourist use energy more _32_, save water and produce less rubbish by finding ways to recycle it. These behaviors have a(n) _33_ and lasting effect on the local environment. Two things are needed to make eco-tourism a succes

20、s. First, it should be done in small groups. And second, because it requires _34_ effort, both eco-tourists and locals must be sincere in their devotion to improving the environment.Green travel provides local people with jobs in parks, hotels and shops. One great achievement of eco-tourism has been

21、 the _35_ of illegal hunting. Former hunters can now work as guides to help keep the animals safe in their natural surroundings.

Reading Comprehension (43%)Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passages there are fou

23、r words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and

24、magazines; a never-ending flood of words. In getting a job advancing, the ability to read and comprehend _37_ can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are _38_ readers. Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age, and never _39_ them

25、. The main shortage lies in the actual stuff of language itself words. Taken individually, words have little_40_ until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. Unfortunately, _41_, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously read one word at a time, oft

26、en regressing to _42_ words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common _43_ habit in reading. Another bad habit which _44_ the speed of reading is vocalization sounding each word either _45_ or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits, some

27、 reading clinics use a device called an accelerator, which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set a slightly _46_ rate than the reader finds _47_, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, making word-by-word reading, regressi

28、on and sub-vocalization, practically _48_. At first comprehension is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, but your comprehension will _49_. Many people have found their reading skill _50_ improved after some training. Take Charles Au, a

29、business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute before the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.

34、erent meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.In the United States, nodding your head up and down means “yes”, while in some parts of Greece and Turkey, it means “no”. In the southeast of Asia, it is a polite way of saying “I heard you”. Today in the USA, when someone puts hi

48、ndless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Havent you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language? According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Res

49、earchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles. The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr. Andrea Mec

50、helli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners. Scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was gre

51、ater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference. “Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists. It means th

52、at the change itself increases the ability to learn. Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible (灵活的),” he said. “You are actually

53、going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.” The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four. Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed tha

54、t the younger they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.58. The main subject talked about in this passage is _. A. science on learning a second languageB. mans ability of learning a second languageC. that language ca

55、n help brain powerD. language learning and maths study59. In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to _.Asay language is also a kind of physical laborBprove that one needs more practice when he (she) is learning a languageCto show the importance of using the language when you

56、 learn the languageDmake people believe language learning helps grey matter work well60. The underlined word “bilingual” probably means _. A. a researcher on language learningB. a second language learner C. a person who can speak two languagesD. an active language learner61. In the last two paragrap

57、hs, the author wants to tell us that _. A. learning a second language is the same as studying maths B. early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in studying other subjects C. Italian is the best choice for you as a second language D. youd better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to l

Many of them lost their home. F. There were also a lot of accidents.In the 19th century, millions of European went to the USA be

60、cause they wanted to find a better life. Many of them couldnt find work in cities like New York. _62_ The people, called settlers, travelled west through the mountains on the Oregon Trail. Some of these people hoped to find gold in California. The journey sometimes took more than one year. There are

61、 a lot of films, called Westerns, about the settlers on the trail. In most of the film, we see the Native Americans (American Indians) attacking the settlers, and the “Indians” killing many white people. _63_ In fact, most of them were very helpful to the settlers. It is true that the settlers journ

62、ey was extremely difficult. Many of them walked 3, 200 kilometers, the whole length of the trail. They had wagons(马车), but the wagons were often too full, so people could not travel in them. _64_ The people were very poor and many did not even have shoes-they walked the whole trail barefoot in extre

63、mely cold temperature. More than 50, 000 people, including many women and children, died on the trail.
