Note that there is one word more than you need.A. offers B. influences C. uncovered D. exactly E. bigF. found G. campaigns H. involved J. properly I. notion
24、Whats in a name? Letters offer clues to ones future decisions, apparently. Previous studies have suggested that maybe a persons monogram _41_ his life choices where he works, whom he marries or where he lives because of “implied self-esteem (自负),” or the temptation of positive self-associations. For
25、 instance, a person named Fred might be attracted to the _42_ of living in Fresno, working for Forever 21 or driving a Ford F-150.Now a new study by professor Uri takes another look at the so-called name-letter effect and _43_ other explanations for the phenomenon. He analyzed records of political d
26、onations in the U.S. during the 2004 campaign which included donors names and employers and found that the name of a persons workplace more closely related to the first three letters of a persons name than with just the first letter. But he suggests that the reason for the association isnt implied s
27、elf-esteem, but perhaps something _44_ the opposite.Duyck, one of the researchers whose previous work _45_ the name-letter effect, isnt so quick to abandon the implied self-esteem theory. He pointed out that the sample group Uri studied may have biased the results: Uri analyzed the name-letter effec
28、t in a sample of people who donated money to political _46_. Still, Duyck notes that Uris theories are credible, and that even while some people may _47_ the same name of companies, employees may be tending to those companies because they start with the same letter as their names. In the end, whatev
29、er the explanation for the name-letter effect, no one really disputes that self-esteem is _48_ on some level. But the true importance of the effect is up for debate. “I cant imagine people dont like their own letter more than other letters,” says Uri, “but the differences it makes in really _49_ dec
30、isions are probably slim.”III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Unemployment will certainly be in double-digits next year-and m
31、ay remain there for some time. And for every person who _50_ as unemployed in the Bureau of Labor Statistics household survey, you can bet theres another either too _51_ to look for work or working part time whod rather have a full-time job or else taking home less pay than before. And theres yet an
32、other person whos more fearful that he or she will be the _52_ to lose a job._53_, 10 percent unemployment really means 20 percent underemployment or anxious employment, all of which translates _54_ into late payments on mortgages, credit cards, auto and student loans, and loss of health insurance.
33、It also means sleeplessness for tens of millions of Americans, and, of course, _55_ purchases.Unemployment of this magnitude and duration also translates into ugly _56_, because fear and anxiety are _57_ grounds for the political resentment against immigrants, blacks, the poor, government leaders, b
34、usiness leaders, Jews and other easy _58_. Its already started. Next year is a mid-term election. Be prepared for worse.So why is unemployment and underemployment so high? And why is it _59_ to remain high for some time? Because, as noted, people who are worried about their jobs or have no jobs, and
35、 who are also trying to _60_ from under a pile of debt, are not going to do a lot of shopping. And businesses that dont have customers arent going to do a lot of new _61_. And foreign nations also suffering high _62_ arent going to buy a lot of our goods and services. And without customers, companie
36、s wont _63_. Theyll cut payrolls instead.This brings us to the obvious question: Whos going to buy the stuff we make or the services we provide, and therefore bring jobs back? Theres only one _64_ left: The government.50. A. keeps toB. stickstoC. shows upD. attaches51. A. discouragedB. timidC. sureD

40、st read.(A) Japan will hand out its first “Nobel Prize of Manga (国际漫画奖)” for artists in the comic book field abroad. This is another step in Japans efforts to show the power of pop culture diplomacy.The International Manga Award, which was compared by manga lover Foreign Minister Taro Aso to a “Nobe
41、l Prize” when he first proposed it, will be given to an artist working abroad whose work best contributes to the spread of the manga form worldwide.Manga, a name used for Japanese style comic books, often combines stories with drawing styles that differ from the overseas superhero comics and cartoon
42、, particularly in their frequent emphasis on cuteness.The winner will receive a certificate and a cup at an award ceremony, and will spend 10 days in Japan meeting with local comic book artists and publishers.“Manga has been spreading overseas and are selling quite well,” Aso said when announcing th
43、e award to the public. “I want to further improve the communicative power of these so-called pieces of pop culture.”Aso has argued that warm feelings for Japanese comics and cartoon can translate into warm feelings for Japanese foreign policy.He has proposed sending cartoon artists overseas as cultu
44、ral ambassadors and the government has named some officials to advise ways to promote Japanese cartoon and culture to foreign audiences.The award committee, consisting of manga artists and publishers, is expected to make its selections quite soon.According to a ministry official Nobuyuki Watanabe, t
45、he prize carries no money reward. The cups design has yet to be finished, but it will be something “appropriate”.65.

Actually, Im ignorant of all those countries in Central Asia, whose names are always ending in “stan.” F
56、or decades, even centuries, Central Asia has been out of focus, a blank on the map of empires. Just as the introduction from Turusbek Mamashov, from the Tourism agency of the president of the Kyrgyz Republic, says, “Throughout this Fashion Week project, we need to create a revolution in the minds of
57、 our people, preparing the country for the international tourism market. It is an opportunity as well as an investment.” What he says is right. If you just give it a glimpse (一瞥), youll find out that the flavor (风情) of the Silk Road is still there. As part of the route for Silk Road traders and migr
58、ating tribes through its epic(史诗的) history, Kyrgyzstan, like other Central Asian countries, is a vast place of desert, grassland and mountain ranges. It is not widely known that Kyrgyzstan is the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bais birthplace. Bishkek, the place holding Fashion Week, is the capital and indust
59、rial center of independent Kyrgyzstan. It is a relaxed, handsome place with wide streets and large amounts of greenery. Especially in the autumn of November, the yellow leaves falling everywhere make the whole city a legend in fall. The mountains are just at its rear, in that case a unique scene of
60、picturesque beauty is composed by snow-white peaks, lakes and the urban Landscape. Today, Ala-Too Square is the center of the poetic places worth seeing in Bishkek. The “White House,” the seat of the Kyrgyzstan Government, is just at the west of the square. Behind this is Panfilov Park, a great plac
61、e to head for a national holiday. The State Museum of Fine Arts is opposite, which is also called the Gapar Aitiev Museum of Applied Arts, featuring Kyrgyz jewelry, rugs and works by local artists. One of the joys besides the scenery is the openness of the people. Bishkek is a city without a big pop
62、ulation but mainly good-natured people from many races, 47 percent are Russian and about a third are Kyrgyz. Most travelers vote Kyrgyzstan as the most appealing, accessible and welcoming of the former Soviet Central Asian republics. It is written by a tourist that Kyrgyzstan is the country Russians
63、 most desperately want to keep: hills always covered with grass and wild flowers. Kyrgyz men always ride a horse wearing a photogenic hat.72.According to the passage, Kyrgyzstan used to be _.A. an international fashion centreB. an important part of Silk RoadC. the focus of the worldD. a vast desert
64、land in Central Asia73.The Fashion Week in Bishkek is supposed to _.A. start a revolution in KyrgyzstanB. attract foreign investment to KyrgyzstanC. promote tourism in KyrgyzstanD. celebrate the independence of Kyrgyzstan74.Which of the statements is NOT ture according to the passage?A. Bishkek is a
65、 crowded modern city surrounded by mountain ranges.B. Panfilov Park is a popular destination for local people during holidays.C. The majority of the population in Bishkek are Russian and Kyrgyz.D. The famous poet Li Bai is thought to have been born in Kyrgyzstan.75.What is the most important message
66、 the author wants to convey in the passage?A. Reflections and thoughts on the glorious history of the Silk Road.B. Feelings about the ongoing Fashion Week project in Bishkek.C. The geographic features and imposing history of Kyrgyzstan.D. The natural and cultural characteristics and attractions in K
67、yrgyzstan.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Using expensive testing equipmentB. Staffing a modern hospitalC. Testing becoming a great helpD. Cost of medical accidentsE. Cos
68、t of training medical workersF. Measures of reducing medical costs76._Physicians fees are only one reason for rising health costs in the United States. Medical research has produced many tests to diagnose, or discover, patients illness. Physicians usually feel obliged to order enough tests to rule o
69、ut all likely causes of a patients symptoms. A routine laboratory bill for blood tests can easily be more than $100.77. _Sophisticated new machines have been developed to enable physicians to scan body organs with a clarity never before possible. One technique involves the use of ultrasound sound wa
70、ves beyond the frequencies that human beings can hear to produce images. Others use computers to capture and analyze images produced by X-rays or magnetic fields. These machines are extremely expensive: The price of a single machine can exceed one million dollars.78. _ New technologies also mean new
71、 personnel. Physicians, nurses and orderlies can no longer staff a hospital alone. Hospitals now require a bewildering number of technical specialists to administer new tests and operate advanced medical equipment.79. _Physicians and hospitals also must buy malpractice insurance to protect themselve
72、s should they be sued for negligence by patients who feel they have been mistreated or have received inadequate care. The rates for this insurance have been raised very steeply in the last ten years, as patients have become more medically knowledgeable, and as juries sometimes awarded very large amo
73、unts of money to injured patients.80. _As a result, hospital costs and physicians fees rose steadily through the 1990s. Government agencies became convinced that it was necessary to limit rising medical costs. One approach is to require hospitals to prove that a need exists for new buildings and ser
74、vices. Hospitals also have faced pressure to run their operations more efficiently, and to decrease the duration of hospital stays for patients receiving routine treatment or minor surgery.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fe
75、west possible words.In the old days of publishing, getting your manuscript into the hands of an editor often meant mailing the unsolicited finished product to the offices of literary agents or editors, where it would receive a cursory look from an editorial assistant or none at all. A modern version
76、 of the slush pile is the online “writing community,” a Web site where aspiring novelists can post their ideas, writing samples or manuscripts and open them to comments and reviews from strangers. On Tuesday Penguin Group USA, the publisher of Tom Clancy, Kathryn Stockett and Nora Roberts, will unve
77、il its own venture, Book Country, a Web site for writers of genre fiction. In its initial phase Book Country will allow writers to post their own work whether its an opening chapter or a full manuscript and receive critiques from other users, who can comment on points like character development, pac
78、ing and dialogue. Later this summer the site will generate revenue by allowing users to self-publish their books for a fee by ordering printed copies. (The books will bear the stamp of Book Country, not Penguin, and the site is considered a separate operation from Penguin.) The site will also explai
79、n the business of finding an agent, marketing and promoting a book, using social media and handling digital and subsidiary rights. Penguin hopes the site will attract agents, editors and publishers scouting for new talent, and allow writers to produce work with more polish and direction than they co
80、uld otherwise. The project has been spearheaded by Molly Barton, the director of business development for Penguin and the president of Book Country. “One of the things I remember really clearly from my early editorial experiences was this feeling of guilt,” Ms. Barton said in an interview. “I would
81、read submissions and not be able to help the writer because we couldnt find a place for them on the list that I was acquiring for. And I kept feeling that there was something we could do on the Internet to really help writers each other.” (Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE T

He asked me to feed the birds for him and said that he would leave the key to his front door in my mailbox.Unfortunately, I
94、 forgot all about the birds until the night before Vernon was going to return. What was worse, it was already dark when I arrived at his house. I soon found that the key Vernon gave me could not unlock either the front door or the back door. I was getting desperate. I kept thinking of what Vernon wo
95、uld say when he came back.I was just going to give up when I noticed that one bedroom window was slightly open. I found a barrel and pushed in under the window. As the barrel was very heavy, I made a lot of noise. But in the end, I managed to climb up and open the window.I actually had one leg insid
96、e the bedroom when I suddenly realized that someone was shining a torch up at me. I looked down and saw a policeman and an old lady, one of Vernons neighbours. “What are you doing up there?” said the policeman. Feeling like a complete fool, I replied, “I was just going to feed Mr Davies birds.”Quest
97、ions:11. Why couldnt the man open the door?12. Why did the man feel desperate?13. Why did the man feel like a fool?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage. One of the biggest problems in developing countries is hunger. An organization called Heifer International is working to impr
98、ove the situation. The organization sends farm animals to families and communities around the world. And American farmer Dan West developed the idea for Heifer International in the 1930s. Mr West was working in Spain where he discovered a need for cows. Many families were starving because of the Civ
99、il War in that country. So Mr West asked his friend in the United States to send some cows. The first Heifer animals were sent in 1944. Since that time more than 4 million people in 115 countries have had better lives because of Heifer animals. To receive a Heifer animal, families must first explain
100、 their needs and goals. They must also make a plan which will allow them to become self-supporting. Local experts usually provide training. The organization says that animals must have food, water, shelter, health care and the ability to reproduce. Without them, the animals will not remain healthy a
101、nd productive. Heifer International also believes that families must pass on some of their success to others in need. This belief guarantees that each person who takes part in the programme also becomes a giver. Every family that receives a Heifer animal must agree to give that animals first female
102、baby to other people in need. Families must also agree to pass on the skills and training they receive from Heifer International. This concept helps communities become self-supporting.Questions:14. What does the speaker tell us about Mr West?15. What are families required to do after they receive su
103、pport from Heifer International?16. What is the major achievement of Heifer International?Section CDirections: In Section C, you will hear two longer conversations.
