In recent years, people use this term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable way. The word became more popular with Apples gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by Chinas rich people. The color became known as “tuhao golden”. The word is now often used to refer to people who have money but lack taste.There are two other Chinese hot words: dama and No Zuo No Die, which may also be taken in the dictionary. Dama, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal. Thousands of Chinese women were buying a large amount of gold when the gold price had gone down. Another phrase No Zuo No Die, meaning if you dont do stupid things, they wont come back to bite you, is also very popular. Other words, such as Maotai, Chinglish and dim sum have also been included in the dictionary.BBC World News recently made a special program called “Tuhao, lets be friends!” “The frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggests that foreign people are looking more to the lifestyle and popular culture of China,” says Zhang Yiwu, professor of Beijing University.What does this trend suggest about the Chinese languages influence?Xing Hongbing, a professor from Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) said “These show that Chinglish is now being accepted by the rest of the world and they play important roles in daily life of Chinese. Behind these Chinglish words and phrases are the Chinese culture. They are reflections of the changes and trends in the Chinese society and they help people from other countries to understand whats happening in China.”21. Which of the following words is NOT a hot Chinglish word? A. Dama B. Karaoke C. Tuhao D. Dim sum22. The word “dama” becomes so popular because _. A. they are wealthy middle-aged womenB. they bought gold crazily when the price was down C. they made the gold price up D. they worked on the Wall Street23. What does the frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggest? A. Foreigners want to know more about the lifestyle and culture of China. B. Foreign people found it funny. C. Chinese is one of the most important languages in the world. D. Chinese people are very friendly.BIts all about personal peace, which means not only an imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated(侵犯) when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume(香水) makes you feel angry.Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire to have space to themselves. In a survey by Trip Advisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers.Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest way. What if someone sits opposite to you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall. Preference for personal space is different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.24. The writer mainly _ in this article.A. tells us how to achieve personal spaceB. explains why people need personal spaceC. introduces some knowledge about personal spaceD. argues for the importance of keeping personal space25. _ might feel his personal space is safe according to the passage?A. A person who has to sit next to a lady putting on strong perfume.B. A person who has been watched by a stranger for a long time.C. A person who hears strange noises when reading at home.D. A Latin boy who is chatting with a friend sitting close to him.26. What can we know from the survey by Trip Advisor?A. People need a smaller personal space in recent times than before.B. People have a strong desire for personal space in recent times.C. There are not enough seats on the plane to meet peoples needs.D. Food service is better provided than seats on the plane.27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses.B. If you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space wont be violated.C. People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space.D. Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space.CWhen Johnnie Martin was in the second grade in high school, one day a psychologist of the school called him into his office.“Johnnie, Ive made a very careful study of you. And I feel sorry to have to tell you Though you have worked very hard, it has not helped. Youre just not fit for it.”The boy buried his face in his hands, “This will be hard on my parents,” he said. “Their one idea is for me to be a college man.”The psychologist laid his hand on the boys shoulder and said, “People have different kinds of talents. Some day you will find what your special gift is and when you do, you will make your parents very proud of you.”Johnnie never went back to school. Jobs were scarce in town, but he managed to keep busy mowing the lawns of the householders and puttering in their flowerbeds. Before long he discovered he had an eye for color.One day while he was downtown, he happened to notice a stretch of unused land behind the city hall. Chance or fate or whatever you may like to call it brought one of the towns aldermen（市政委员会委员）round the corner just at that moment. The boy said, “I can make a garden out of this dump, if youll let me do it.”“The towns got no money for it,” said the alderman.“I dont want any money for it,” said the boy. “I just want to do it.”The alderman was shocked to find someone who did not want money. He took Johnnie into an office, and when the young man came out he had the authority to clean up the public eyesore. Before long the old dump became a little beautiful park.It was also a kind of show window for Johnnie. People saw the result of his skill and knew him as a natural landscape gardener.That was twenty-five years ago. Today Johnnie is the head of a successful business in landscape gardening. His aging parents are proud of Johnnie, for he is not only a success, but he has also made his part of the world a lovelier place to live in.28.

Interest is the key to success.DAccording to new research from the University of Cambridge in England, sheep are able to recognize human faces from photographs.The farm animals, who are social and have large brains, were previously known to be able to recognize one another, as well as familiar humans. However, their ability to recognize human faces from photos alone is novel.The recent study, the results of which were published in the journal Royal Society showed that the woolly creatures could be trained to recognize still images of human faces, including those of former President Barack Obama and actress Emma Watson.Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards. Later, they were able to recognize the image for which they had been rewarded. The sheep could even recognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15 percent the same rate at which a humans ability to perform the same task declines.“Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know that they are intelligent, individual animals who are able to recognize their handlers,” said Professor Jenny Morton, who led the Cambridge study. “Weve shown with our study that sheep have advanced face-recognition abilities, comparable with those of humans and monkeys.”Recognizing faces is one of the most important social skills for human being, and some disorders of the brain, including Huntingtons disease, affect this ability.“Sheep are long-lived and have brains that are similar in size and complexity to those of some monkeys. That means they can be useful models to help us understand disorders of the brain, such as Huntingtons disease, which develops over a long time and affects cognitive abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change.” Morton said.32. According to the new research, whats unusual about sheep?A. They have large brains.B. They can recognize their owners.C. They can recognize human faces from photograph.D. They can tell animals from humans.33. How did the researchers train the sheep?A. By giving food rewards.B. By showing photos of humans and monkeys by turns.C. By guiding them to follow their handlers.D. By showing photos of famous people.34. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Sheep have a higher face-recognition ability than monkeys.B. The sheeps face-recognition ability may prevent some disorders of the brain.C. The sheeps face-recognition ability says the same when shown photos at any angle.D. The new discovery is beneficial to the study of cognitive ability changes.35. Whats the best title of the passage?A. A Wonderful Scientist.B. How Sheep Recognize Each Other.C. A New discovery about Sheep.D. The Life of Sheep.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Do you have the experience of digging out your suitcase, deciding what to bring and being afraid that youve forgotten something? 36 .
