Vanity (虚荣) stamps with person
27、al photographs went on sale for the first time in Japan as part of an international postage stamp exhibition. The customers photo is taken with a digital camera and then printed on stamp sheets, a process that takes about five minutes. Sold in a sheet of 10 stamps for $ 8.80, little more than the co
28、st of lunch in Tokyo, each stamp printed a different scene from a traditional painting along with the photo. The stamps can be used normally to mail a letter, and postal officials hope they will help encourage interest in letter-writing in the Internet age. “Certainly e-mail is a useful method of co
29、mmunication, but letters are fun in a different way, “said Hatsumi Shimizu, an official in the Post Ministry. “We want to show young people that letters can be fun too. “ While similar stamp sheets appeared in Australia in 1999 and are now sold in some 12 nations and territories, Japans fondness for
30、 commemorative photos is likely to make them especially popular here. Indeed, officials had prepared 1,000 sheets but they were sold out in less than 30 minutes. Although the stamps are currently only available as a special service during the exhibition, postal a regular basis in the future.56. The
31、best title of this passage might be . A. Never Miss a Chance to be Photographed B. Your Own Face on a Postage Stamp C. First Japanese Postage Stamps with a Photo D. Letters are as Fun as E-mails57. By saying “little more than the cost of lunch in Tokyo”the author really means .A.this service is not
32、very expensiveB.the cost of this service is very highC.food in Tokyo is very dearD.$ 8.80 is a very small amount of money58. The purpose of this activity is . A. to make the international postage stamp exhibition more interesting B. to make more stamps for normal use C. to draw interest in writing l
33、etters D. to satisfy Japans fondness of commemorative photos59. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Japanese people like to take photos. B.

34、his service is more popular in Japan than in other places.B Women work harder than men at university and get better degrees as a result, according to a study carried out at Burnel University. The research, which tracked 200 students over four years, found that women consistently outperformed men in
35、further education even though they had started their courses with almost the same A-level results. An analysis of the department% results showed that while 65 per cent of female graduates were awarded, only 35 per cent of males did that well.Girls are known to outperform boys at school, but this res
36、earch shows the trend continues at university.Fiona Smith, the senior lecturer at Brunel who led the study, said: “The survey proved a previously held opinion that the educational sex gap is purely a middle wrong school phenomenon. ” It also makes the unfairness for working women in terms of pay. Wo
37、men work. harder at school, harder at university and do better in both, yet still receive less pay. The survey found that female students were harder working, less likely to miss lectures and more likely to believe their marks reflected their ability than their male competitors. Female students were
38、 also more likely to seek and receive support from teachers. On the contrary, men were more likely than women to miss lectures due to“laziness” and to believe that playing sport was an important part of university life. Different from the popular argument that womens success is due to the increased
39、emphasis on coursework, female geographers at Brunel did better in exams than in coursework, the research found. The study, based on 180 questionnaires and interviews with more than 70 students, concluded that males underachieved because they felt working hard was not “macho”. Dr Smith said: Most wo
40、men feel that getting good grades is the most important part of university life. They believe they need to work harder in order to be able to compete in the male-controlled environment they will face at work: good grades are viewed as an “insurance policy” for success. Men, on the other hand, feel t
41、hat its not “macho” to work hard. They tend to put going out and playing sport higher thancoursework.60. The underlined word “It” in the sixth paragraph probably refers to . A. the previously held opinion C. the survey B. a middle school phenomenon D. the educational sex gap61. The cause of women pe
42、rforming better at university than men is that . A. female students did better at school before entering university B. women will not find jobs unless working harder at university C. women get more help and support from the teachers D. most female students thinks good grades at university will benef
43、it them in the future.62. The underlined word “macho” might have the same meaning as . A. pround B. manly C. brave D. strong63. Which of the following might be the best title of this passage?A. Women Outperform Men at University.B. Women Should Receive the Same Pay as Men.C. Males at University Perf
44、orm too Badly.D. Females Do Better at School as Well as at University.C When the world was a simpler place, the rich were fat, the poor were thin, and right-thinking people worried about how to feed the hungry. Now, in much of the world, the rich are thin, the poor are fat, and right-thinking people
45、 are worrying about fatness.Evolution (进化) is mostly to blame. It has designed mankind to deal with lack, not plenty. People are perfectly fit to store energy in good years to see them through lean ones. But when bad times never come, they are stuck with that energy, stored around their expanding be
46、llies (腹部). Thanks to rising agricultural productivity, lean years are rarer all over the globe. According to the UN, the number of people short of food fell from 920m in 1980 to 799m 20 years later, even though the worlds population increased by 1.6 billion over the period. This is mostly a cause f
47、or celebration. Mankind has won what was, for most of his time on this planet, his biggest battle, to ensure that he and his offspring had enough to eat. But every silver lining has a cloud, and the result of prosperity (繁荣) is a new trouble. Fatness is the worlds biggest public-health topic todayth
48、e main cause of heart disease, which kills more people these days than AIDS, malaria, war; the major risk factor in diabetes (糖尿病) ; heavily connected with cancer and other diseases. Since the World Health Organization labeled fatness an “epidemic (流行病)” in 2000, reports on its fearful results have
49、come thick and fast. Will public-health warnings, combined with media pressure, persuade people to get thinner, just as they finally put them off tobacco? Possibly. In the rich world, sales of healthier foods are booming and new figures suggest that over the past year Americans got very slightly thi
50、nner for the first time in recorded history. But even if Americans are losing a few ounces, it will be many years before the country solves the health problems caused by half a centurys dining to overload. And, everywhere else in the world, people are still piling on the pounds. Thats why there is n
51、ow an agreement among doctors that governments should do something to stop them.64. Whats the main idea the writer intends to tell us in this passage? A. Its harmful to have enough to eat. B. Its better to be thin than fat. C. Fatness is the greatest danger in the world. D. Fatness has become a grea
52、t health problem.65. It can be inferred from the passage that the biggest problem in history is . A. people were thin B. people smoked heavily C. there was not enough food to eat D. people stored energy in good years66. Why does the author compare smoking with the fatness problem in this passage? A.
53、 They are both problems difficult to settle. B. They both lead to the same diseases. C. They are both bad habits. D. They are both harmful to health.67. Which of the following is true according to this passage? A. Man has got rid of lean years by raising agricultural productivity. B. Though difficul
54、t, man may break away from the fatness problem. C. Fatness may cause many diseases such as heart disease, AIDS and cancer. D. The doctors feel that they can do nothing about the fatness problem.DIf its possible to see red about not seeing red, that is what I was doing. We had misjudged the timing of
55、 our autumn trip to see the changing leaves in the Great Lakes states, and I was really upset. No matter how I strained my eyes (使劲用眼), I couldnt spot red anywhere. Not even a bit of golden yellow broke through the dull greenery. This vacation was a complete waste. I sat alone in the backseat of our
56、 rented car and got angry as we drove north through the dull, dark green. In the front seat my husband and father chatted merrily, obviously unconcerned. Then a motto came to mind :“Happiness is a decision. ”It must have been something my mother said. She was always passing on words of advice. When
57、I was a child she gave me a little black book with empty pages. On the flyleaf (扉页) she had written, “Look for a beautiful thing and you will find it. ”I was supposed to keep a record of the most beautiful thing I saw day. I remember spending hours debating what Id write down. A babys dimpled smile?
58、 A stone shining with fools gold? Pictures in the clouds, or tulips (郁金香) tipping their heads? I found so many things it was impossible to pick just one. Now, on the road, I played Mothers game again. I took in the all-green scenery. Thick forests lined both sides of the highway. The long conical (圆
59、锥形的) pines and spruce (云杉) was seen here and there. Maple leaves danced in the gentle wind. I felt like a girl again surrounded by beautiful things. Later in the trip, after we crossed the Upper Peninsula and drove into Canada, I found the bright fall plants I had been looking for. But by then Id al
60、ready seen a million shades of green, the infinite variety and beauty that only our heavenly Father can produce. And that we can always find if we look closely enough.68. What was the purpose of the authors trip? A. To see the green forest. B. To have a sightseeing across America. C. To see red leav
61、es in fall. D. To try out the motto her mother gave her.69. Whats the point the author wants to show in the passage? A. Nothing is too difficult if you put your heart into it. B. No pains, no gains. C. Failure is the mother of success. D. Beauty exists if you have an eye for it.70. Which of the foll
62、owing can best describe the authors feeling at the end of her trip? A. Delighted B. Angry C. Disappointed D. Surprised71. The underlined phrase see red in the first paragraph probably means . A. get discouraged B. get angryC. get ashamed D. get excitedE The English language is changing, and fast, th
63、anks to the rapid progress of technology. We all have a choice: We can either bury our heads in the sand and spend the rest of our lives wishing Shakespeare were alive and well. Or we can embrace (拥抱) the new English, enter into the spirit of the Internet age and call it Weblish. You cant avoid it,
64、for the simple reason that whenever a new variety of language comes along, it inevitably impacts (冲击) on the language as a whole, says Dr. David Crystal, honorary professor of linguistics (语言学家) at the University of Wales in Bangor, whose book Language and the Internet has just been published. The t
65、rouble with keeping up with the new English is not so much that there are so many new words but that the old words no longer mean what we thought they did. In the past, if someone said they did not have Windows, you would have to suppose they lived in a cave. These days, it is probably because they
66、use a Mac (which is a computer, not a raincoat). Spare is as disliked as it ever was, but whereas it once meant an unappetizing (引不起食欲) canned meat, it now stands for unwanted “junk” e-mail. Spellings are changing, too. Not only is text-messaging playing hvc wth vrbs (havoc (混乱) with verbs), but the
67、 conventions of e-mail communication place little emphasis on “perfick speling. ” Wcblish loves to see nouns happily become verbs ( “Please bookmark this site”), and verbs become nouns ( “Send me the download”). Verbs and prepositions are regularly thrown together to become new nouns or adjectives (
68、dial-up, logon, print-out,pull-clown, upload), while others are created from simply pairing nouns: cyberspace, ethernet , Internet, hyperlink, metatag, netspeak.72. The best title of this passage would be . A. Keep up with the latest weblishB. Keep up with the latest development in EnglishC. Newly-i
69、nvented English wordsD. Technology and English73. We can infer from the first paragraph that .A. some people wish Shakespeare were still aliveB. people may have different attitudes towards weblishC. all the people welcome weblishD. weblish causes fear among people74. The third paragraph is mainly ab
70、outA. different meanings of English wordsB. the rapid changes of English wordsC. the difficulty in understanding words related to computer and the InternetD. the common words used on the Internet75. Dr. David Crystal would probably agree that A. people should not accept weblishB. weblish can cause m
71、isunderstandings among peopleC. weblish will destroy the English languageD. people should know something about weblish第卷 （非选择题 共35分） 第四部分： 写（共两节，满分35分） 第一节：短文改错 （共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一行作出判断：如无错误，在该行右边的横线上划一个勾（）；如有错误（每行只有一个错误），则按下列情况改正：该行多一个词：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉,在该行右边横线上写出该词,并也用斜线划掉.该行缺一
