When the moon is round and full, the shadows(影子) of the moon mountains and the lines of the moon valleys sometimes seem to show a giant nose and mouth and eyes. At least, some people think so.If there were a man on the mooninstead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a manwhat would he be like?He would not be like anyone you know. He would not be like anyone anybody knows.If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or cold the way Earth people are, he could not stay on the moon.The moon becomes very, very hot. It becomes as hot as boiling water. And the moon becomes very, very cold. It becomes colder than ice.Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright. The rest of the moon is cold and dark.If the man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive, he couldnt live on the moon because theres no air there. Hed have to carry an oxygen tank, as astronauts do. Theres no food on the moon, either. Nothing growsnot even weeds（grass）.If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains, he would be very happy. There are many high places there, such as the raised land around the holes, or craters(火山口), of the moon. Some of these rims are as tall as Earths highest mountains.But if the man on the moon liked to swim, he would be unhappy. There is no water on the moonjust dust and rock.When you think of what its like on the moon, you may wonder why it interests our scientists. One reason is that the moon is Earths nearest neighborit is the easiest place in space to get to.Going back and forth between the moon and Earth, astronauts will get a lot of practice in space travel. Things learned on moon trips will be of great help to astronauts who later take long, long trips to some of the planets.Scientists are also interested in the moon because it has no air. The air that surrounds Earth cuts down the view of the scientists who look at the stars through telescopes. A telescope on the moon would give them a clearer, closer view of the stars.29. What is the reason why our scientists are interested in the moon?AThe moon is beautiful.BThe moon is different from the earth.CThe moon is the easiest place in space to get to and it has no air, unlike Earth.DThe moon is Earths nearest neighborit is the easiest place in space to get to.30. The underlined word “rim” in the Paragraph 8 means _.Aball Bhill Cheight D. round edge 31. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. The climate on the moon is quite different from that on the earth.B. Traveling between the moon and Earth will do much good to astronauts.C. There is some food and weeds on the moon, even though theres no air.D. It is clearer to look at the stars through telescopes on the moon than on earth.32. What is the main thought of the passage?A. .A telescope on the Moon would help scientists have a clearer, closer sight of the stars.B. There may be human beings on the moon.C. If there were a man on the Moon, there would be many similarities between the man on the Moon and on the Earth.D. We can learn much from research on the MoonCAs societies develop, their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. When people have enough money, these wants become demands.Now, it s important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies (策略). There are various ways of doing this. One way at supermarkets, for example, is to interview customers while theyre doing their shopping. They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. It s also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act.Another way to get information from customers is to give them something. For example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract.Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touting the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that. This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.33. The text is designed for _ A. customers B. salesmen C. researchers D. mangers34. Which of the following can help managers get useful information? A. Visiting customers themselves. B. Giving customers free food on the street. C. Visiting parks as ordinary customers. D. Asking customers questions at supermarkets.35. What does the word this underlined in the last sentence refer to? A. Visiting Disneyland. B. Dressing up and walking around. C. Wearing attractive clothes. D. Acting Mickey Mouse. 36. The main idea of the text is _. A. how to do market research B. how to develop marketing strategies C. how to find out customers social needsD. how to encourage customers to spend more moneyDThe need to feed a growing population is putting much pressure on the worlds supply of water. With 97% of the worlds water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage seems strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country, many of the worlds agricultural industries experience constant water shortages.Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution are very high. Not only is there the cost of the engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered. Where valleys(山谷)are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Each country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements.This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation. In Texas, farmers overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed.Saudi Arabias attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrigation water from underground reserves. Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry.37. From the first two paragraphs we learn that_.A. much of the worlds water is available for useB. people in high rainfall countries feel lucky C. water can be easily carried through pipes across the worldD. the costs of water redistribution should be considered38. Which of the following is TRUE?A. The water stores in Texas have been reduced by 75%.B. Most industries in the world suffer from water shortages.C. Good management of water use resulted from the project in the Central Valley.D. The underground water in Saudi Arabia might run out in 50 years.39. What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. Steps to improving water use management.B. Ways to reduce the costs of building dams.C. Measures to deal with worldwide water shortages.D. Approaches to handling the pressure on water supply.40. The text is mainly about_.A. water supply and increasing populationB. water use management and agricultureC. water redistribution and wildlife protection D. water shortages and environmental protection第二节There is an English saying, _41_. Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. _42_.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. _43_. Laughter increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial. _44_. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated (忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh. _45_.A. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughterB. Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.C. They have found that laughter really can improve peoples health.D. Laughter is the best medicine.E. Laughter can prolong peoples life.F. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.G. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.四、英语知识运用第一节：完型填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分）Massive Open Online Courses are also called MOOCs. Tens of thousands，or even more people can _46_ these classes all at once. You can be anywhere in the world to take a MOOC. All you need is a _47_ and a network connection. MOOCs add to a tradition of what is known as _48_ learning. For years，many colleges have offered classes that are taught _49_ or mostly online. MOOCs are available in _50_ like computer science or engineering，which work quite well. But can MOOCs in subjects like arts be as _51_ as the old teaching approach? Scott Anderson teaches philosophy at the University of British Columbia in Canada. He sees both good and _52_ sides of MOOCs. “There are parts that will be fine，mostly when students listen to a _53_，there is no special reason why they need to be _54_ present to hear and get it,” says Mr. Anderson. Increasing numbers of students in MOOCs can mean _55_ communication between students and _56_. He says two ways to_57_ this problem are by adding more teachers and _58_ up online discussion groups. Lisa Jadwin，who teaches English and writing at St.John Fisher College in New York，says that online education has some _59_ for her subjects. Whats _60_ in online education is face-to-face interaction，for example，the teaching of English is a face-to-face _61_ practice. So the old approach is not going to be _62_ very quickly by compute raided instruction. Bill Pogue teaches communications at the University of Houston downtown. He says that after leading classes for more than 30 years，he would not _63_ to teach a MOOC. However，Mr. Pogue sees good _64_ in online education. He noted a strong sense of community in an online course he once took. He said the students could work _65_ on the same project while living in different regions.46. A.cut Bgive Caccept Dtake47.
