二、Cloze Test（10 points,1 point for each item）下列短文中有十个空白，每个

空白有四个选项。根据上下文要求选出最佳答案，并在答题纸上将相应的字母涂黑。

1. We all believe that modern technology can make life better because it makes

everything faster. But by 11 everything up, we suffer losses we have not yet learnt

to know. Our day begins with speedy urges: the alarm rings and you jump 12 bed. You

take a quick shower. Then you wake the kids and 13 them through breakfast so they

wont miss the bus. At the dining table, you swallow some slices of bread with a cup

     of tea. When everything 14, you hurry to the car, thinking of the things you would

buy from the supermarket on the way 15. Driving 20 minutes in the busy traffic, you

reach your workplace, rushing into the building and 16 up the stairs three at a

time, arriving at your desk with seconds to spare. You take 17 deep breaths. Then,

you instantly remember that the 18 you didnt finish last night must be faxed to

Beijing by 10 oclock in the morning.

Yet it seems that the 19 we go, the further we fall behind. Not only in the literal

sense of not getting done what we set out to do, 20 at a deeper level. It has come

to the point where my days feel like an Olympic marathon.

三、Reading Comprehension（30 points，2 points for each item）从下列每篇短文

的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。

1. Parents can have a great impact on the development of their childrens

creativity in art. But first, they have to know how. They may find the following

advice interesting and instructive.

Encourage free drawing rather than coloring books. Coloring books stop the

possibility of selfexpression. A child may just enjoy colorful pictures and never

learn how to express himself. As an art teacher says, “Children have a very

powerful instinct to draw freely and roughly. Such practice makes them learn

language easily.” In fact, a child expresses himself in rough drawing. This is the

beginning of literacy and creativity. Also, parents should not teach their

kids“how” to draw and they should not make their kids draw realistic pictures to

entertain themselves. Experience tells us that such teaching from the parents will

discourage children, making them think they cant do it the “right”way.

Competition and rewards should also be avoided in the process of artistic creation.

A childs natural instinct to create will disappear if he or she thinks about prize

while drawing.

Parents should be role models for their kids. They should not say things like,“I

cant draw a straight line.”Instead, they should learn to say,“I love to

create.”This teaches children that the process of creation is more important than

the product. If children see their parents drawing, cooking or building creatively,

they will do the same.

Buy a notebook for your child to use every day. This can be a journal for making up

stories, writing ideas and drawing pictures. Even the youngest child can use it to draw freely and roughly, expressing himself.

     Take your child to places that promote ideas and creativity. Art museums, science

centers, libraries and childrens museums all are great places to see other peoples

creativity. That will inspire children to make their own creations and inventions.

Give children choices and free time. Some of the best ideas come from daydreaming and imagining.

In short, parents should allow their kids to have the freedom to invent for

themselves. That means not always teaching and commanding.

(1). To develop their artistic creativity, children should be encouraged to______.

(A). draw freely and roughly

(B). learn to draw realistic pictures

2. It is often said that politeness costs nothing. In fact, it seems that a little

more politeness could save businesses ￡5 billion every year. Frequently hearing the

phrase“thank you” or “well done” means the same to staff as a modest pay rise.

     Praise and encouragement also makes employees more likely to work hard and stay in

their jobs. In this way the business companies can save the cost of finding new

employees. A third of 1,000 workers surveyed by a consulting firm said they did not

get thanked at all when they did well—and a further third said they were not

thanked enough. In both cases, staff said they felt undervalued, meaning they were

less likely to exert themselves and were more likely to look for employment

elsewhere.

The result of the survey shows that there would be around ￡52 billion loss in

productivity if the employees felt less appreciated. According to the firm, praising

staff has the same positive effect as a 1 per cent pay rise—and works out much

cheaper for bosses. Three out of four employees said that regular acknowledgement by

their bosses was important to them, but only a quarter said they were actually given

as much praise as they felt they needed.

The survey found that those in bluecollar and manual jobs were less likely to be

given any recognition for doing well. But it seems that they most need such praise.

In regional terms, Scottish staff felt most undervalued. Four out of ten workers

said they were never thanked and eight out of ten said they would like more praise.

However, workers in the NorthEast are less impressed by being praised by the boss,

as only 69 per cent said they felt the need to be told “well done” regularly.

Older employees and women need the most reassurance, according to psychologist

Averil Leimon. She said that words of praise did more than creating a pleasant place

to work—they could even promote profits.

(1). The survey indicates that politeness could save businesses a huge amount of

money every year because .

答案：A

(3). According to the survey, of the employees believed they were praised as

much as expected.

(A). 25%

(B). 30%

(C). 40%

(D). 75%

答案：A

      (4). The survey shows that those who do not pay much attention to praise are .

(A). staff from Scotland

(B). workers in NorthEast

(5). It can be concluded from the passage that .

(A). bluecollar employees are expecting more pay rise

(B). pleasant workplace could promote business profits

(D). words of praise could possibly increase business profits

3. A centuriesold tradition, illustrated in a modern childrens book, links the

sweetness of honey with the joy of learning to read.

“The grandpa held a jar of honey so that all the family could see. He then dipped a

spoon into it and put some honey on the cover of a small book.

The little girl had just turned five.

‘Stand up, little one,’ he asked the girl softly.‘I did this for your mother,

your uncles, your older brother, and now you!’

Then, he handed the book to her.‘Taste!’

She touched the honey with her finger and put it into her mouth.

‘Whats that taste?’ the grandpa asked.

The little girl answered,‘Sweet!’

Then all of the family said in a single voice,‘Yes, and so is knowledge, but

knowledge is from the bee that made that sweet honey, you have to go after it

through the pages of a book!’

The little girl knew that the promise to read was at last hers. Soon she was going

to learn to read.”

This is the beginning of a profoundly moving childrens book entitled Thank You,

Mr.Falker.In this book, Patricia Polacco writes of her own passion to read, inspired

by the honey on the book. It wasnt until fifth grade that she met her beloved

teacher who provided the hlep that she needed to finally unlock the magic of the

written word.

Reading this book,we are in fact acquainted with some enduring traditions of child

education that stress the importance of verbal capacity at a very early age.

     The child learning to read is admitted into a collective memory by way of books. And

with the printed words that are active with meaning, the child becomes acquainted

with a common past which he or she renews, to a greater or lesser degree, in every

reading. Much as the author of the book Thank You, Mr. Falker puts it,“Almost as if

it were magic, or as if light poured into her brain, the words and sentences started

to take shape on the page as they never had before…And she understood the whole

thing…Then she went into the living room and found the book on a shelf, the very

book that her grandpa had shown her so many years ago. She spooned honey on the

cover and tasted the sweetness…Then she held the book, honey and all, close to her

chest. She could feel tears roll down her cheeks, but they werent tears of

sadness—she was happy, so very happy.”

(A). nearly six years old

(B). less than five years old

(C). more than six years old

(D). a little more than five years old

答案：D

(2). It can be inferred from the passage that .

(3). The book entitled Thank You, Mr. Falker is about .

their money they earn for minor purchases, such as birthday cards and candy. The

rest of the money they earn can be put in the bank. When there is enough, the child

can purchase some big items, such as MP4, DVD players, etc. A money management plan

taught early can help children spend money more wisely later in life.
