Poverty, hard work, an
15、d even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Amy, and Marmee, as the March girls called their mother.The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish
16、 Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always. The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. “Your husband is very ill,” it said, “come at once.” The girl tried to be brave whe
17、n their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever (猩红热) when she was taking care of the sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once
18、more all together. Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater
19、one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety. Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there
20、. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldnt live much longer to be with the family and in the spring time she died. News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became ever mo
21、re successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer and soon afterwards founded a school for boys. And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to. 56. The members of the March

24、t after Britains space scientists yesterday threw their full weight behind an ambitious (雄心勃勃的) proposal to explore the solar system with plans to land astronauts on Mars by 2033. Lord Sainsbury, the science minister, announced that the UK is contributing 5 million to help pave the way for the Auror
25、a programme which will finally allow astronauts to boldly go where no others have yet set foot on the red planet. Speaking in London, Lord Sainsbury said, Space exploration always has been a voyage of discovery and today could be the start of another exciting journey which greatly expands our knowle
26、dge of the world in which we live. He said the purpose of Aurora was to stretch the imagination and inspire new generations to take an interest in science or pursue it as a career. Officials at the European Space Agency had set a September deadline for member countries to confirm their commitment to
27、 Aurora. The present programme involves landing a robot rover (漫游者) on the surface of Mars as early as 2009, to be followed by a sample-return mission to bring Martian rock back to Earth. British scientists say the UK is ideally placed to play a leading role in Aurora. The ill-fated Beagle 2 probe (
28、航天探测器), which disappeared suddenly while attempting to land on Christmas, was filled with state-of-the-art British technology. Despite the missions failure, scientists say it would be tragic to waste the Beagle 2 know-how. But the financial commitment is only a first step, and experts say playing a
29、full part in Aurora could demand an investment from the UK of about 35 million a year over a period of five years. Professor Ian Halliday, chief executive of PPARC, said, Aurora is an exciting programme of space exploration to make clear the mysteries of our immediate cosmos (宇宙). Importantly the UK
30、 can make a real contribution both scientifically and industrially. A fully costed and defined Aurora programme should be completed by 2006.60. According to the Lord Sainsbury, the purpose of Aurora includes all of the following EXCEPT_.A. to inspire young people to take an interest in scienceB. to
31、land astronauts on MarsC. to stretch peoples imaginationD. to encourage young people to pursue it as a career61. The whole Aurora programme will need an investment from the UK of about _ million pounds in all.A. 35 B. 5 C. 175 D. 4062. The passage mainly tells us about _ A. the UKs ambitious proposa
32、l to land astronauts on Mars by 2033 B. how to land a robot rover on Mars in 2009 C. the purpose and the meaning of Aurora D. how much money will be spent on Aurora63. It can be concluded that the passage is most probably a _ A. science fiction B. research paper C. news report D. speech on spaceC So
33、metimes, something that is considered to be negative turns out to be an advantage on the job. Though he is only 18 years old and blind, Suleyman Gokyigit is among the top computer technicians and programmers at InteliData Technologies Corp., a large software company with several offices across the U
34、nited States. After our company united with another one last October, two different computer networks were driving us crazy, recalls Douglas Braun, the InteliData president. We couldnt even send e-mail to each other. In three weeks Mr. Gokyigit created the software needed to connect the two networks
35、. None of the companys 350 other employees could have done the job in three months, says Mr. Braun. Suleyman can see into the heart of the computer. Mr. Gokyigits gift, as Mr. Braun calls it, is an unusual ability to form an idea of the inside of a machine. The computer permits me to reach out into
36、the world and do almost anything I want to do, says Mr. Gokyigit. The young programmer is at home with hardware as well, thanks partly to a highly developed sense of touch. Mitzi Nowakowski, an office manager at InteliData, remembers how he easily disconnected and reconnected their computer systems
37、during a move last year. Through feel, Suleyman can find the position of connectors, pins and wires much faster than most other people with sight, he says. Much of the student programmers speed comes from his ability not to be interrupted while at the computer. When typing, he listens carefully to t
38、he synthesizer (合成器). His long, thin fingers fly over the keyboard. Nothing seems to shake his attention, says Mrs. Nowakowski, his boss. Mr. Gokyigit is the only company employee who is available (可找到的) 24 hours a day. We consider him our top problem solver, says Mr. Braun. 64. According to Mr. Bra
39、un, Suleyman_ A. can work wonders on computer B. is the best technician in the world C. has done a hard job in three months D. has united InteliData Technologies Corp. with another computer company 65. The underlined part is at home with hardware ( paragraph 4 ) means_ A. is good at dealing with com
40、puter hardware B. is fond of computer hardware C. works with computer hardware at home D. feels comfortable when working with computer hardware 66. Suleyman was quick while at the computer mostly because of_ A. his blindness B. his attention on the synthesizer C. his long, thin fingers D. his abilit
41、y not to be interrupted 67. What does the text mainly tell us? A. Computer technicians are more likely to be gifted. B. Ones disadvantages may prove to be advantages. C. The disabled can also play an important role in society. D. Top computer scientists have unusual abilities to form ideas of comput
42、ers. D They cant vote which nations should have a seat on the United Nations Security Council(联合国安理会), but ordinary people have shown their feelings.By Tuesday afternoon, over 11.5 million people in and outside China had signed an online petition(请愿) saying Japan should not succeed in its bid for an
43、 everlasting seat on the Security Council. The petition by 11.5 million people tells Japan that money alone cannot buy their heats.The loud call is due to the historical facts in Would War. Some Japanese politicians said their country is ready to play a more active role in world affairs, and their c
44、ountrys contribution can no longer be limited to economic fields.A new history textbook that a right-wing Japanese organization has handed out for agreement goes so far as to paint Japan as a “victim（受害者、牺牲品）” in Would War. Its authors even say that China started all the wars between the two countri
45、es. Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi turned down an invitation to a grand party in Moscow on May 9 to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the end of Would War. Koizumis absence will do nothing but encourage more probes into his countrys historical baggage.Japanese politicians continue to visi
46、t the Yasukuni Shrine（靖国神社）. Wartime leader and war criminal Hideki Tojo, as well as five other hanged war criminals, are buried at the shrine. They talk about peace during the visits and ask their Asian neighbors to understand Japanese culture, which requires them to visit Shinto to mark seasonal c
47、elebrations. But they dont see the pains that the Japanese invasion brought on other Asian countries. How can a nation sleep with such a history on its conscience（良心）? The amount of money Japan gives the United Nations doesnt necessarily give the country the role in international affairs. Neither wi
48、ll an everlasting seat on the Security Council free Japan from its historical baggage.68. The 11.5 million people signed an online petition to_.A. express their feelings that they didnt want Japan to win its bid.B. stop Japan from bidding an everlasting seat on the Security Council.C. honor the peop
49、le who died in World War.D. support the idea that Japan should give the UN more money.69.In the new Japanese book,_.A. the Japanese are described as right-wing people.B. the wars are not mentioned at all.C. the Japanese government is asked to apologize officially.D.

According to some Japanese politicians, their visits to Yasukuni Shrine are due to_.A. the fact that the six Would War criminals were buried there.B. the intention that Japan wants to get an everlasting seat on the Security Council.C. the requirement of Japanese culture.D
51、. the probes of the war criminals.71.Which of the following descriptions about Japan is NOT true?A. The government refused an invitation to the 60th anniversary of the end of World War.B. It wants to get an everlasting seat on the Security Council.C. It wants more probes into its historical baggage.
52、D. It gives the UN much money.EEducation is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to fit them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a system of e
53、ducation which will really prepare children for life. It is not enough just to choose the first system of education one finds; or to continue with ones old system of education without examining it to see whether it is in fact suitable or not.In many modern countries it has for some time been fashion
54、able（流行的、时髦的） to think that, by free education for all, whether rich or poor, clever or stupid, one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough: we find in such countries a far larger number of people with univers
55、ity degrees than there are jobs for them to fill. Because of their degrees, they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with the hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries.In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we
56、must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability, and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be ashamed of ones work, or to scorn（轻蔑、不屑做） someone elses. Only such a type of educa
57、tion can be called valuable to society.72. The first sentence of this passage means that_ A. education is not the purpose of life B. education is a way of life C. education is to make people suitable for life D. education is not fit for children73. Free education for all is not enough, because_ . A.
58、 it can not solve all the problems of society B. there are not enough jobs for those who have degreesC. degrees are uselessD. people with degrees are ashamed of their jobs74. The writers of this passage thinks that_ . A. work with hands is dirty B. food is more important than education C. education
59、is not necessary for some people D. it is better to be a completely uneducated farmer75. We must be educated in such a way that_ . A. we can choose whatever job we like B. we can do all kinds of jobs C. each of us can do a good job D. each of us can do some work that is useful to society第四部分 写作（共两节，

62、the age of four. Most of the new teaching would be in languages not widely taught now in American schools. These include Arabic, Chinese, farsi, Hindi and Russian.

63、ers into government service. Administration officials will ask for 114 million dollars in 2007 to start the program. The money would be used to help foreign-language students pay for their education. The plan also calls for sending more American students to other countries to study. And it calls for
64、 bringing more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States.

As a matter of fact, if you put your heart into your study, whatever the result is, there is nothing left for you to regret. Remember: no pains, no gains.第9页 共9页
