21、ce Football magazine early Tuesday.Praised by Argentina great Diego Maradona as his successor, Messi won an unprecedented treble（三重） in Spain last season with Barcelona as the Catalan side swept the Champions League, the Spanish title and the Copa del Rey.The 22-year-old Messi, the first Argentine t

23、0 points. Real Madrid winger Ronaldo had 233 and Xavi had 170.Honestly, I knew that I was among the favorites because Barcelona had a fruitful year in 2009, Messi was quoted as saying by the magazine. But I didnt expect to win with such a margin. The Golden Ball is very important to me. All the play
24、ers who won it were great players, and some great players never won it.Barcelona had three players in the Top 5 with Andres Iniesta taking fourth ahead of former Barca player Samuel Etoo.

Ronaldo to win the European Footballer of the YearB. Ronaldinho beats Messi to win the European Footballer of the YearC. Messi beats Xavi to win the Eur

Messi said Barcelona had a fruitful year in 2009.BThanks to the Web, Were Alone Together and Loving itTheres a professor, Barry Wellman, at the University of Toronto in Canada who has come up with a term to describe the wa
31、y a lot of us North Americans interact these days. And now a big research study confirms it. Barry Wellmans term is networked individualism. Its not the easiest concept to grasp. In fact, the words seem to contradict each other. How can we be individualistic and networked at the same time? You need
32、other people for networks.Heres what he means. Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social networks involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.But the l
33、atest study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project confirms that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social interchange. A lot of folks Pew talked with say thats a good thing, because of concerns that the Internet was turning us into h
34、ermits who shut out other people in favor of a make-believe world on flickering computer screens.To the contrary, the Pew study discovered the Internet has put us in touch with more real people than wed have ever imagined. Helpful people, too. Were turning to an ever-growing list of cyber friends fo
35、r advice on careers, medical crises, child-rearing, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told the Pew that the Internet plays an important or crucial role in helping them deal with major life decisions.So we networked individuals are pretty tricky: Were keeping more to oursel
36、ves, while at the same time reaching out to more people, all with just the click of a computer mouse!45. The Pew study was conducted in _.A. The United States B. CanadaC. The U.S. and Canada D. Europe46. Which of the following has happened since the invention of the Internet and email?A. People are

For many Americans, the Internet plays an important role in helping them make important decisions.D. “Internet addiction” is a growing problem among peop
39、le who use computers. 48. What does the bolded words “reach out” in the last paragraph mean? A. Connect with. B. Play a trick. C. Make a decision. D. Stay alone.CThe devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina is a wake-up call. It is a call for every American to pay attention to the destruction we risk
40、 by allowing human-induced(导致的) climate change to continue. It is impossible to prove that Hurricane Katrina was caused by global warming, or even that human activities made the storm more severe. However, a paper published in the scholarly journal Nature reports that the force of dangerous hurrican
41、es has increased by 50% during the last 50 years. It also reports that a global warming-induced rise in temperature near the oceans surface has probably contributed to this increase in dangerous storms, and thus to property(财产) damage and human death.On August 30, the Los Angeles Times summed up(总结)
42、 the view of many scientists who agree that if the frequency of hurricanes does not decrease in the next few years, then we will be fairly certain that humans, and not natural storm cycle, are at the root of the problem. I believe there is at least a chance that by reducing U.S. reliance on fossil f
43、uels for energy, we can prevent future tragedies like Hurricane Katrina. Let the change begin now.There are many ways to reduce the volume of greenhouse gas emissions. My family drives the most fuel-efficient car we can afford, but I prefer to take public transportation whenever possible. My family
44、buys locally grown food instead of produce that was transported thousands of miles on fuel-burning vehicles. We also replaced our incandescent light bulbs（白炽灯泡）with more energy-efficient compact fluorescents（荧光灯）. This might sound like a trivial move, but the Union of Concerned Scientists reports th
45、at if every household in the United States replaced one incandescent bulb with a compact fluorescent, it would have the same effect on U.S. carbon-dioxide emissions as removing 7.5 million cars from the roads. Now think if every household replaced not just one but all of their incandescent bulbs!The
46、 United States, with just five percent of the worlds population, is responsible for close to one quarter of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, yet our country is doing far less than most European nations to fight global warming. We dont have to sacrifice our lifestyles; Europeans enjoy the same sta
47、ndards of living as Americans. So what are we waiting for? It is time to act.49. Which of the following is a fact?A. Hurricane Katrina was caused by global warming.B. Human activities made the storm more severe.C. The force of dangerous hurricanes has increased by 50 percent during the last 50 years
48、. D. A global rise in temperature near the oceans surface accounts for more dangerous storms.50. From Paragraph 2 we can infer that many scientists agree _.A. it might be human activities that lead to global warming.B. natural storm cycles have caused global warming.C. hurricanes are likely to come
49、more frequently.D. burning fossil fuels for energy is a better alternative.51. If every household in the U.S. replaced all their incandescent bulbs, _.A. it would have the same effect as removing 7.5 million cars from the roads.B. it would save 7.5 million tons of carbon-dioxide from going into the
50、air.C. this would reduce the total output of COemissions in huge amounts.D. cars will be much more environmentally friendly.52. According to the writer,_in reducing the volume of greenhouse gas emissions.A. Europe does a better job. B. Europe should follow the example of America.C. he, as an Europea
51、n, wants to see more efforts made by Americans.D. Europeans should shoulder a greater responsibility.DSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning， they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is
52、 not passing reading on do them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”. Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and func
53、tion. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: It can be seen and observed。 Learning to read involves all that each individual
54、does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny. If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the qu
55、est（探索) for knowledge？Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children.” When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner
56、 fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading. 53. The problem with the reading cou
57、rse as mentioned in the first paragraph is that _.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading54. The teaching of reading will be successful if _.A. tea
58、chers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable55. The underlined word “scrutiny” most probably means “_”.A.
59、 inquiry B. observation C. control D. suspicion56. According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when _.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches childre
60、ns experienceEFlexible working hours, homeworking opportunities and cover for emergencies or school holidays are the top concerns for working mothers, according to a British survey on Thursday. The survey of 1,677 people by specialist employment advice website workingmums.co.uk showed that despite a
61、 tougher job climate, in which redundancies(裁员) had risen dramatically during the crisis, mothers demanded for a more flexible schedule. Flexible hours for full-time jobs came top of the list for 85 percent of respondents who were asked what they thought made for a family-friendly employer. That cam
62、e just ahead of homeworking opportunities. “Flexibility is really key and able to help achieve an element of work/life balance,” workingmums.co.uk founder Gillian Nissim told reporters.She said the crisis had not reduced the urgency of this issue for working mums and that employers who want to be pr
63、epared for the eventual upturn would do well to listen to them rather than risk losing them to more forward-thinking rivals. Many women said they had considered setting up their own business as a way around the flexibility problem and nearly half (45 percent) of respondents said they had looked into
64、 it. Nissim said the workingmums.co.uk database alone showed that on average working mums have more than 15 years of work experience and a range of valuable skills picked up in the workplace and from their parenting experiences. “So the benefits to employers of being able to accommodate (适应) a degre
65、e of flexibility is significant,” she said.Part-time work, flexibility around emergency cover or school holidays were the next highest concerns with extended maternity （产假） pay as well on the list of concerns.More than half (54 percent) of respondents said they would accept a less well-paid job in r
66、eturn for flexibility, with 40 percent prepared to consider this option.57. The passage mainly discuss the problem of _.A. working mothers requiring flexible working hours.B. working mothers planning to set up their own businesses.C. well-paid jobs.D. unemployment at the time of financial crisis.58.
67、 Flexibility of working hours can help women _.A. to have an extended maternity.B. to have opportunities to operate their own companies.C. to strike a balance between work and life.D. to pick up a range of valuable skills.59. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _.A. 40 percent of the res
68、pondents are ready to have less-paid jobs instead of full-time jobs.B. more than half of the respondents would accept a less well-paid job if they were given a job of flexible hours.C. the highest concern of working mums is about part-time work.D. women were more concerned about extended maternity p
69、ay than school holidays.60. If you are the editor of a newspaper, which column will you fit this article in? A. Advertisements. B. People. C. Education. D. Career.FMakoto、Mr. Zheng、Mr. Zhu、Jack 和Xiao Wang 正在广州寻找合适的餐厅，第61-65题是对他们个人情况的介绍。阅读下列餐厅的信息(A、B、C、D、E、F)， 选出符合他们各人需要的最佳选择。选项中有一项是多余的。61. Makoto is
70、 a Japanese tourist who has stayed in Guangzhou for a few days. He wants to make a tour of North China but unfortunately he has no time. So he would like to find a restaurant where he can taste northern food and experience the life in the north.62. Mr. Zheng was born in Hunan but went to Japan at an
71、 early age. This time he came to Guangzhou to deal with some business affairs. Coming back to his homeland after being away for about 20 years, he hopes to find a restaurant serving food of his home town.63. It is the first time for Mr. Zhu, who comes from the northeast of China, to visit Guangdong
72、Province. He is interested in traditional Cantonese food and Cantonese lifestyle.64. Jack is a successful businessman. He is flying to Guangzhou to meet some people, who are likely to sign a contract with him. He wants to find a high quality restaurant. Of course, it is the quality rather than the p
73、rice that he cares about.65. Xiao Wang, a migrant worker in Guangzhou, plans to hold a party with his 10 friends. All of them are fond of the Sichuan cuisine. Xiao Wang hopes to spend less than 600 yuan for the dinner.ANanhai Yucun RestaurantFounded in 1986, Nanhai Yucun Restaurant has always been o
74、ne of the gourmets choices in Guangzhou.Prices are high, but so is the quality. Just look at the gust list; the King and Queen of Spain, South Koreas Prime Minister and his wife have eaten here, along with lots of local famous people. BDongbeirenDongbeiren is meant for northerners. The decoration is
75、 basically redfrom the paper cuts and the curtains to the Kang (a bed with a table where people can sit comfortably without shoes and with their legs folded). It is perhaps a way to remind the northerners of home or for other people to get in touch with the north. CTaotaoju RestaurantTaotaoju Restau
76、rant is one of Guangzhous most well-known traditional Cantonese restaurants, located in a historic building in the heart of the citys Xiguan District.You cant get any more traditional Guangzhou than this, which is a great place for dim sum and seafood. You havent lived in Guangzhou until youve eaten
77、 dim sum in a true local place like Taotaoju. Its also a popular spot for parties.DChongqing Xiaodongtian RestaurantIts one of the top Sichuan cuisine restaurants in Guangzhou, featuring Chongqing flavor.It is a group of chain restaurants in Guangzhou. The food is Sichuan style, but the decoration a
78、nd surroundings are a bit old.Like most Sichuan restaurants, the pleasant smell of their traditional hot pot spreads throughout the whole place.Food here is medium-priced, around 50 RMB per person.EMaojia ReastaurantMaojia Reastaurant is a local favorite for strong-flavored Hunan dishes.It has a str
79、ong cultural atmosphere related to Chairman Mao and also introduces Maojia dishes characteristic of tasty Hunan local flavors, which are a bit softer than the traditional Hunan flavor.FEnmi Japanese ReastaurantThe decoration here is beautiful and peaceful.A small “courtyard of bamboo” is refreshing
80、while the space between tables is large and comfortable. The diverse sashimi (raw fish slices) is a must-try here.The food, however, is served slow and the regulated tow hours for ordering is strange.第II卷非选择题 （共40分）第一节 短文改错 （10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：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在其下面加上该加的词。删除：把多余的

88、 college entrance examination approaching day by day, more and more senior three students are moving out from their dorms and living in a rented apartment nearby their schools. Toward this issue, there are different points of view from students, parents and schools.Most students think although schoo
89、l dorms bring them fun and friendship, the blackout rule to guarantee students sleeping hours doesnt leave them enough time to finish homework. Worse still, the noise in the dorm not only influences their studies but also ruins their rest.To many parents, their investment is worthwhile if it works better for their childrens studies to rent an apartment nearby school. Besides, they can take care of their childrens daily meals and laundry, so their children can eat better and have a comfortable life.In my opinion,
