31、出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项标号涂黑。ANearly everyone was very much against motor cars when they first appeared. So the government found a very clever way to try and drive them off the roads. Back in 1861, a previous government had passed a law about the heavy steam vehicles which were beginning to crawl about the
32、roads of Britain. This law said that no vehicle should go more than 10 miles an hour in the country and 5 miles an hour in town. Four years later these speed limits were reduced to 4 and 2 m.p.h, and a man with a red flag had to walk in front to warn people of the danger. k*s*5*u This law applied to
33、 ordinary cars, too, and the police started to arrest drivers who broke the speed limit and didnt have a man with a red flag. Of course, it made the idea of motor cars seem quite ridiculous. But this law was stopped in 1878 and the speed limit was raised to the frightening speed of 14 m.p.h, in 1896
34、. A special race was held from London to Brighton to celebrate this victory for the motor car industry. The London-Brighton Veteran Car Run is still held every November to mark this event. Only cars made before 1905 may take part. In the first rally there were no more than 33 entrants, and only 22 o
35、f them finished the course. Nowadays, so many old cars apply to go on the run that the organizers have had to restrict the entry. Early motorists had to carry their own spare parts and do their own repairs. If they had a real breakdown, the only chance of getting anywhere was to borrow a horse and h
36、itch it to the front of the car!61. What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us?A. The heavy steam vehicles appeared as early as 1861.B. No one liked motor cars when they first appeared.C. The British government tried to do away with motor cars.D. The first car drivers had to pay attention to th
37、e speed limits.62. What does the underlined “it” in the third paragraph refer to?A. The law. B. The speed limit. C. A red flag. D. The government.63. According to the passage, the following is true EXCEPT _.A. The cars were allowed to run faster in 1861 than they were in 1865B. Motor cars were not p
38、opular when they first appearedC. The London-Brighton Veteran Car Run has become more popularD. The law was stopped in 1896 and a special race was held to celebrate it 64.

49、 free of charge, for everybody in the country. Before this time health care had to be paid for by individuals. Nowadays the central government is directly responsible for the NHS although it is administered by local health authorities. About 83 percent of the cost of the health service is paid for b
50、y general taxation and the rest is met from the National Insurance contributions paid by those in work. There are charges for prescription and dental care but many people, such as children, pregnant women, pensioners, and those on Income Support, are exempt from payment. Most people are registered w
51、ith a local doctor (a GP, or general practitioner) who is increasingly likely to be part of a health centre which serves the community. As the population of Britain gets older, the hospital service now treats more patients than before, although patients spend less time in hospital. NHS hospital many
52、 of which were built in the nineteenth century provide nearly half a million beds and have over 480,000 medical staff. The NHS is the biggest employer in Europe although Britain actually spends less per person on health care than most of her European neighbors. During the 1980s, there was considerab
53、le restructuring of the Health Service with an increased emphasis on managerial efficiency and the privatization of some services (for example, cleaning). At the end of the 1980s, the government introduced proposals for further reform of the NHS, including allowing some hospitals to be self-governin
54、g, and encouraging GPs to compete for patients. Patients would be able to choose and change their family doctor more easily and GPs would have more financial responsibility. The political questions continue of how much money should be provided to support the NHS and where it should come from.69. We
55、know from the first paragraph that _.A. patients were charged for receiving health care before 1948B. people didnt have to pay for health care before the NHS was set upC. the NHS was an organization which gave free advice to villagersD. the original aim of the NHS was to provide equal basic health c
56、are for everybody 70. What do we know about the NHS?A. Its managed by the central government.B. It hires more people than any other unit in Europe.C.

57、h care.71. All the following statements about GPs are true EXCEPT that they _.A. take care of the local peoples healthB. have more responsibilities than beforeC. work under high pressure nowadaysD. often take part in competitions to see who is the best 72. The underlined word “exempt” probably means
58、 _.A. suffering B. different C. prevented D. freeD A black hole is created when a large star burns out. Like our sun, stars are unbelievably hot furnaces (熔炉) that burn their own matter as fuel. When most of the fuel is used up, the star begins to die. The death of a star is not a quiet event. First
59、 there is a huge explosion. As its outer layer is blasted off into space, the dying star shines as brightly as a billion suns. After the explosion, gravity pulls in whats left of the star. As the outside of the star sinks toward the center, the star gets smaller and smaller. The material the star is
60、 made of becomes tightly packed together. A star is so dense that a teaspoon of matter from it weighs billions of pounds. The more the star shrinks, the stronger the gravity inside it becomes. Soon the star is very tiny, and the gravity pulling it in is unbelievably strong. In fact, the gravity is s
61、o strong that it even pulls light into the star! Since all the light is pulled in, none can go out. The star becomes black when there is no light. Then a black hole is born! Thats what we know about black holes. What we dont know is this : What happens inside a black hole after the star has been squ
62、eezed into a tiny ball? Does it keep getting smaller and smaller forever? Such a possibility is hard to imagine. But if the black hole doesnt keep shrinking, what happens to it? Some scientists think black holes are like doorways to another world. They say that as the star disappears from our univer
63、se, it goes into another universe. In other words, a black hole in our universe could turn into a “white hole” in a different universe. As the black hole swallows light, the white hole shines brightly somewhere else. But where? A different place, perhaps, or a different time many years in the past o
64、r future. Could you travel through a black hole? Right now, no. Nothing we know of could go into a black hole without being crushed. So for the time being, the black hole must remain a mystery. Black holes are a mystery but that hasnt stopped scientists from dreaming about them. One scientist sugges
65、ted that in the future we might make use of the power of black holes. They would supply all of Earths energy needs, with plenty to spare. Another scientist wondered if a black hole would some day be used to swallow earthly waste a sort of huge waste disposal(处理) unit in the sky!73. When the star beg
66、ins to die, _.A. there is no fuel left in it B. its outer layer goes into space firstC. a huge explosion will happen D. it doesnt give off light any longer74. Which of the following doesnt help produce a black hole?A. The gravity inside the star is very strong. B. The light cant go out of the star.C
67、. The star becomes smaller and smaller. D. The dying star shines very brightly.75. The black hole _.A. continues becoming smaller and smaller all the timeB. goes into another universe and becomes a white holeC. can pull in everything we know of in the worldD. will appear at another place at a differ
68、ent time76. The best title for this passage is _.A. What Are Black Holes B. Travel through a Black Hole C. How Do Black Holes Come into Being D. A New Scientific Discovery: Black Holes EOnline advertising is simply advertising that is done over the Internet. For those interested in such a strategy,
69、there are a number of options and some have found a way to advertise online through things that do not appear to be traditional advertising mediums. While the effects of online advertising are still being studied, it is a rapidly-growing segment of the advertising dollar. As more people turn to the
70、Internet as a source for daily news, socialization and communication, more advertising dollars are likely to be spent. In fact, in a period of five years, from 2006 to 2010, online advertising is expected to increase from 6 percent of all money spent for advertising, to 12 percent or more. That coul
71、d signify the beginning of a fundamental shift in how all advertising dollars are spent. Online advertising is also quickly becoming a serious force for other types of advertising media to deal with. Newspapers and magazines all over the world are facing a number of different challenges, including l
72、oss of ad revenue. Many attribute some of those struggles to online advertising, which is not only taking a share of the advertising, but a share of the audience as well. This is especially true of the young adult male audience, which is a target demographic of many advertisers. However, newspapers
73、and magazines are not the only media dealing with lower revenue. The remarkable thing about online advertising is its ability to cut across the range. For example, online ads can look like television commercials on print ads. The possibilities are limitless. Further, because of hypertext(超文本) linkin
74、g, advertisers have the power to transport potential buyers directly to their site, or a site selling their products. In some cases, online advertising may not look like advertising at all. There was one case where a video was put on an online video sharing web site supposedly showing popcorn being
75、popped by radiation put out from mobile phones. While this was later revealed as a hoax, the company that put the video online received a substantial amount of free, or nearly free, publicity. The company sold headset devices meant to help limit an individuals exposure to radiation. Online advertisi
76、ng is also appealing to some advertisers because, with some types of ads, there is no pay unless there are results. With click-through advertising, the advertiser only pays if a user clicks on the ad. This type of strategy can make advertising very cost effective, especially for those who do not hav
77、e large advertising budgets.77. Suppose a total of 20 million pounds is spent on advertising industry in 2010, then about _ million pounds goes to online advertising.A. 1.2 B. 2.4 C. 3.6 D. 4.8 78. Online advertising is more favorable than other types of advertising in that _.A. it is more cost effe
78、ctiveB. it can appear in different forms, such as print ads or television commercialC. the Internet has become an essential part of our daily lifeD. all of the above79. In paragraph 5, the author uses popcorn as an example to _.A. show that popcorn is a kind of junk foodB. prove that online advertis
79、ing can achieve the expected result without looking like advertisingC. indicate that radiation from mobile phones are harmful to our healthD. persuade people to reduce exposure to radiation 80. The passage mainly deals with _.A. an attempt to introduce online advertising B. the unusual success of on
80、line advertising C. the important role of online advertising in our daily life D. the fact that online advertising has become a threat to other types of advertising第二节 信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Directions: read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is
81、 one extra heading, which you do not need.A. Tuvaluan people became rich overnightB. Signs of sinking have appeared on TuvaluC. The news came that the country would be drownedD. Tuvaluan people have suffered from serious diseasesE. Desire to enjoy life has caused serious consequencesF. Tuvaluan peop
82、le are improving their living standards despite the rising sea81. If you suddenly received a lot of money, how would you spend it? For the people of Tuvalu, a tiny state comprising nine islands in the South Pacific, something unusual happened. In 1999, Tuvalu, with its population of 11,000, was the
83、third poorest state in the world. Later, Tuvalu received a domain name on the Internet “.tv.” A communication company from California quickly offered to buy the domain name for $40 million. The islanders became very rich.82. At the same time, the islanders received some very bad news. Due to global
84、warming, and because the islands are only 3m above sea level, Tuvalu will probably become the first state in the world to disappear under the sea. According to scientific estimates, the islands will suffer severe floods within the next 15 to 20 years, and by the end of the century, the islands will
85、have disappeared from sight altogether.83. You can already see signs of the rising sea on Tuvalu. Pools of seawater appear here and there, some beaches are swallowed by the waves, and the roots of trees are rotting by the ocean. The rain cause temporary floods.84. But despite these problems, the Tuv
86、aluans had their new money. Paul Lindsay, a documentary film-maker, went all the way to Tuvalu, and came back with an incredible story. As the water rises, the Tuvaluans are using the money to develop the land that is soon to disappear. They are building new houses, planning nightclubs, restaurants
87、and hotels, and new cars are driving around on new roads. “Just because we are sinking, it doesnt mean we dont want to raise our standards of living.” Lindsay was told by Sam Teo, Tuvalus minister for natural resources.85. Of the $40 million Tuvalu received through the Internet deal, $10 million was
88、 used to asphalt the islands 9km of roads. Before 1999 there were four cars on theislands. The Tuvaluans used to walk or cycle everywhere. There was a flood of imported foods and goods and soon these had unexpected consequences. The Tuvaluan people now suffer from diseases such as obesity, high bloo
89、d pressure and diabetes. Others discovered that it was too expensive for them to keep their cars. There is now a huge rubbish dump in the middle of this tropical paradise, covered with abandoned cars and other waste.第四部分:写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题l分,满分l0分) 下面短文中有10处语言错误。请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。增加:
