I cycled to work during the weekdays and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go fo
16、r long walks. In those days I had a job in an office, but I did not have many things to do, so I didnt earn much. I knew it was not a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better. But the hours were a
17、lot longer, too. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. “ Expense account lunches”. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didnt have any time for things like that any more. Theres a lo
18、t of stress in a job like mine. Perhaps thats why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling the glass to the top. Then I had another glass, and then another. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used t
19、o smoke at all.56. Which of the following is TRUE about the writer ten years ago?A. He cycled to work every dayB. He got a lot of exercise every day.C. He was very fit.D. He didnt play basketball.57. His first job was not very good because_.A. he had too much time to keep fitB. he didnt earn muchC.
20、he had much time to go for long walksD. he didnt like to work in an office58. He started drinking more than he used to because_.A. he used to have only half a glass of whisky when he got homeB. he just didnt have any time for things he likedC. he started smoking a lotD. there is a lot of stress in a
21、 job like his.59. What can we learn form the passage?A. A job with lower pay is good.B. A job with a higher pay is goodC. A person is usually tired from a job with a good pay.D. A person should earn much money in his jo.BIf a person tells you that something is “the real McCoy”, he is telling you it
22、is the real thing, not a copy or replacement. There is nothing false about “ the real McCoy”. It is the best that can be found.There are different ideas on how the expression came into common use. Perhaps the most popular story is about a famous boxer, Charles Kid McCoy, a one-time world famous welt
23、er-weight champion. One day, McCoy was having a drink in a bar with a lady friend. A man came up and began to talk to her. He was not a nice man.McCoy wanted no trouble. He asked the man to leave. He said, “ Im Kid McCoy.” McCoy thought his name was so well-known that he didnt need to say more. But
24、the man did not believe him. “Oh, yeah?” he said. “Well, if you are Kid McCoy, then I am George Washington!” And he continued to speak to the prize-fighters friend in an unpleasant way.McCoy hit the man with a fistnot hardactually it was really a light touch. But the man fell to the ground, unconsci
25、ous. Ten minutes later, when he came to sense, he called out, “ that was the real McCoy!” And so, as told by Kid McCoy, that was how the expression “ the real McCoy” got started.There are other versions, however. One is that the expression goes back to the days of prohibition(禁止) when it was illegal
26、 in the United States to sell whiskey. Although whiskey was against the law, many sold it. And many sold bad whisky. They were not afraid to do so, because there was so little that anybody could do about it. Buying whiskey, good or bad, was as illegal as selling it.But there was one whisky dealer wh
27、o was honest. His name was McCoy. He refused to sell bad whiskey. He sold only the best imported whiskey. His product became recognized as the best. It was called “the real McCoy”.The expression survived prohibition days and soon became a general term. One way or another, no matter how the expressio
28、n began, “ the real McCoy” is an expression that everyone understands. It means the one and only- the best one. They are indeed words of special praise.60. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. It is about the exact meaning of the version.B. It tells how a person gets his name.C. It shows
29、how to tell the real from the false.D. It explains how to find the best.61. In the third paragraph, “the prize-fighter” refers to _.A. a championB. George WashingtonC. a fellowD. McCoy62. Which of the following is TRUE about the days of prohibition?A. A national law forbade the sale of alcoholic dri
30、nks.B. Bad whiskey was not allowed to sell.C. People at that time preferred nothing but whiskey.D. The days of prohibition resulted in McCoys selling wine.63. What is the main idea of the whole passage?A. The story of a famous boxerB. The general use of the version.C. The expression and its story.D.
31、 The friendship between an athlete and a seller.CLateral（横向的）thinking, first described by Edward de None in 1967, is just a few years older than Edwards son. You might imagine that Caspar was raised to be an adventurous thinker, but Edward de Bone was so famous, Caspars parents worried that any time
32、 he would say something bright at school, his teachers might snap. “Where do you get that idea from?”“We had to be careful and not to overdo it,” Edward admits. Now Caspar is at Oxfordwhich once looked unlikely because he is also slightly dyslexic(诵读困难). In fact, when he was applying to Oxford, none
33、 of his school teachers thought he had a chance. “So then we did several thinking sessions,” his father says, “using my techniques and, when he went up for the exam, he did extremely well.” Soon after, Edward de Bone decided to write his latest book Teach Your Child How to Think, in which he transfo
34、rms the thinking skills he developed for brainstorming businessmen into informal exercises for parents and children to share.Thinking is traditionally regarded as something done in a logical order, and everybody knows that children arent very logical. So isnt it an uphill battle, trying to teach the
35、m to think? “ You know,” Edward de Bone says,” if you examine peoples thinking, it is quite unusual to find faults of logic. But the faults of perception(知觉)are huge! Often we think ineffectively because we take too limited a view.Teach Your Child How to Think offers lessons in perception improvemen
36、t, of clearly seeing the implications of something you are saying and of exploring the alternatives.64. What is TRUE about Caspar?A. He first described lateral thinking.B. He is often scolded by his teachers.C. He is Edwards sonD. He is an adventurous thinker.65. Caspar succeeded in applying to Oxfo
37、rd because_.A. he used in the exam the techniques provided by his fatherB. he read the book Teach Your Child How to Think before the exam C. he was careful and often overworkedD. his school teachers thought he had a chance66. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that Edward_.A. was prompted（促使）to stu
38、dy lateral thinking because his son was lightly dyslexicB. once taught businessmen how to think before he wrote for parents and childrenC. was likely to improve childrens logic with his bookD. gave a description of lateral thinking several years after his son was born67. Lateral thinking refers to t
39、he following EXCEPT_.A. seeing the implications of what you are sayingB. exploring the alternatives for what you are sayingC. improving ones logic in thinkingD. improving ones perception in thinkingDStudents may be smart, savvy（有见识的）, and have spotless resumes(履历表). But unless they also have sartori
40、al sense, they may not fare well on the job market. Thats the premise(前提)behind the “Suitable Suits” program at Barnard College.The Office of Career Development keeps a closet filled with 21 crisp, black suits that students can borrow for job interviews. Students make an appointment with the office
41、and agree to dry-clean the garments before returning them.“Students going into sectors like education or not-for-profit work are not going to have to own a suit and dont want to invest a couple of hundred dollars,” says Kim C. Barberich, associate director of programs at the womens college.And yet,
42、as many recent college graduates will prove, the all-important “ first impression” often seems to play a key role in whether or not a job applicant is successful in the interview. At least as much as hygiene(卫生), posture and eye contact, formality of dress can influence the way an interviewer sizes
43、up a candidate.“Helen Rodriguez, a junior majoring in history, borrowed a suit last month to interview for a summer internship with a city-council member in New York. Ms. Rodriguez chose the skirt instead of the pants, and the short jacket instead of professional,” she says. “It made me feel confide
44、nt.”Suitable Suits started in the spring of 2004 and was paid for with a grant from the Goldman Sachs Group. Around 120 students have borrowed suits so far.After 11 long days, Ms. Rodriguez heard back from the council members office. She got the job. “I am very grateful to the Suitable Suits program
45、,” she wrote in an e-mail message. “I truly believe that it helped me form a positive first impression at the interview.68. The “sartorial sense” in the first paragraph refers to _.A. social awarenessB. sense of dressingC. first impressionD. table manners69. What does the Suitable Suits program do?A
46、. Give students advice on studying.B. Give students advice on how to find a job.C. Lend proper suits to job-hunting students to make a good first impressionD. The author did not tell us.70. What is the authors attitude towards the program?A. SupportiveB. CriticalC. Indifferent D. IronicalEDesign is
47、the act of making something better. Everything, no matter how ordinary, has been designed.That some objects give us no special pleasure or are not fashionable does not change the fact that somebody decided what they would look like, what they would do and how they would be used.Every time you buy a
48、new kettle or toaster, the quality of the design is influential, encouraging you to choose one kettle or toaster over the others. Good design works well. Excellent design works well. Take the Alessi kettle, with its curved handle and two-tone whistle. It looks very exciting but the handle can get to
49、o hot to touch. Compare this with the familiar Russell Hobbs automatic electric kettle. It has been in production since the late 1950s, works perfectly and looks good.Poor designs are easy to find. If you cannot see what is at the back of the kitchen cupboard without getting down on your hands and k
50、nees, that is a bad design. If you catch your sleeve on a door handle, that is a bad design. If you cannot understand how to use the controls on your cooker without searching for the Instruction Book and if, when you find the book, you still cannot work the timing switch, that is a very bad design.T
51、he question is: how, when these kinds of faults are so obvious, have some designs ever reached our homes?The answer is that in most cases, bad designs emerge because not enough energy and tie are give to think through all the different questions that should be asked about the product.Kitchen cupboar
52、d makers will say that they are making cupboards as economically as possible. This kind of “cheapness” is one of the main reasons for the absence of good design in our homes. To make a cupboard where the shelves swing out to display the contents when the door is opened is more expensive.72. What doe
53、s the passage say good designers think about?A. What will influence peopleB. How things will be usedC. What people are used toD. What is fashionable73. What was wrong with the Alessi kettle?A. The design was old-fashionedB. It was too roundC. It was unreliable.D. The design was impractical.74. In wh
54、at way are some cookers badly designed?A. The instruction books have no diagrams.B. The handles stick out too far.C. It is difficult to find the controls.D. Using the timing switch is a confusing process.75. Why do badly-designed things get made and sold?A. Because there are to few designers.B. Beca
55、use they are quicker and cost less to make.C. Because manufacturers pay low wages to designers.D. Because designers do not know enough about manufacturing processes.第二卷（共35分）第四部分：写作（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，在该行右边横线上画一个勾；如有错误（每行只有一个错误），则按下列情况改正： 此行多一个词：
