She refused, so he turned away sadly and said he must do what he had made up his mind to do. At this word, the lady was greatly frightened for she was afraid for his life. So she called him back and gave him a dollar. The beggar took the money, put it into his pocket, and thanked her a great deal. “You have saved me from a terrible fate,” he said. The lady asked him what he meant. The beggar replied, “Madame, I have been begging all day, but only you have taken pity on me. Without this dollar you gave to me, I should have had to go to work now. 21. Before meeting the lady, the beggar _.A. had already received some dollars already B. had been thinking of taking his own life C. had received no money for that day D. had acted as if he was looking for a job 22. If the woman had understood the beggars words correctly, she would probably_.A. have given him one more dollar B. have persuaded him to give up begging C. have gone away without giving him any money D. have offered him some work 23. In the story, “a horrible fate” means _A. to beg B. to go to work C. to die D. to live a hard life BSome people say that the best way to reduce the size of your waist is to do stomach exercise. Many people believe that when specific muscles are exercised, the fatty tissues (组织) in the immediate area are burned up. The truth is that exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one specific area. Of course, if you reduce the fat throughout your body, you will certainly see results around your waist too.Some people believe that you need to exercise twice a week in order to keep a sufficient level of physical fitness. However, studies directed by American scientists show that unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. Within 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to reestablish (重建) the good physical effects. And what does that mean to you? American scientists concluded that while daily exercise is most helpful, exercising every other day or three days a week will keep a sufficient level of physical fitness.Is it true that you burn more calories running one mile than walking the same distance? The answer is no. The truth is that you use the same amount of energy whether you walk or run the mile, since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed does not matter. Of course, if you run rather than walk for 30 minutes, you will cover more distance, and therefore burn more calories.If your breathing doesnt return to normal within 5 minutes after you finish exercising, you have exercised too much. Five minutes or so after exercising, your breathing should be normal, your heart shouldnt be beating loudly, and you shouldnt be tired. 24. If you want to reduce the fat around your waist, you should _. A. do stomach exercise B. exercise the waistC. exercise all the muscles of your body D. run fast for 30 minutes25. From the second paragraph, we learn that _. A. we only need to exercise twice a week B. we should exercise three times a week C. muscles lose their strength after 48 hoursD. we should exercise every other day, or three days a week 26. If you have exercised too much, _. A. your breathing will take longer than 5 minutes to return to normal after you finish exercising B. your breathing will return to normal within 5 minutes after finishing exercising C. your heart will not be beating loudly D. you will be too tired to move27. This passage tells us that _. A. it is better to do more running than walking B. the more exercise you do, the healthier you will be C. the unexercised muscles must be used again within 48 to 72 hoursD. in order to lose weight, you have to run fast CEinstein, a great scientist of the age, was almost as strange as his Theory of Relativity.Once, while riding a street car in Berlin, he told the conductor that he had not given him the right change. The conductor counted the change again and found it to be correct, so he handed it to Einstein, saying, “The trouble with you is that you dont know your figures.”Einstein said that there were only twelve people living who understood his Theory of Relativity although a good many books had been written to explain it. He had nothing but contempt(蔑视) for the things most people set their hearts on - for fame and riches and luxury(奢华).He didnt want money or praise. He made his own happiness out of such simple things as his work and playing the violin and sailing his boat. Einsteins violin brought him more joy than anything else in life. He said that he often thought in music.28The conductor thought Einstein _ Awasnt good at maths Bhad good memory Cwas either mad or strange D. liked to make trouble29Einstein meant that many people _ A. knew his Theory of Relativity well because they could explain it Bhad written to have grasped his theory correctly Cpretended to have grasped his abstract theory Dadmired him very much30Which of the following statements is true?A. Einstein care little for fame or wealth.B. Einstein had nothing but enough fame and riches and luxury.C. Einstein was eager for the things most people set their hearts to.D. In the eyes of Einstein, most people had a strong wish to publish book on the theory.31. The underline part “set their hearts on” means _.A. believe B. have C. love D. hate DThere is an English saying, “Laughter is the best medicine.” 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. They have found that laughter really can improve peoples health.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. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It 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.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The group that tolerated (忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny programme. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes (减少)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. 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 laughter.32. According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG? A. Laughter is good for health. B. Laughter can make you bee old quickly. C. Laughter helps to reduce pain. D. Laughter, just like physical exercise, is good for our body.33. Why do doctors hold laughter clinics? A. Because they want to earn more money. B. Because they think they will help the patients recover from illnesses.C. Because they want to improve their patients health.D. Because they want their patients to laugh more. 34. According to the author, we should _ in our life. A. laugh as much as possible B. watch more funny filmsC. smile all the time D. spend time in the laughter clinics35. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Both laughter and physical exercise are good for health. B. Laughter clinics can help patients improve their condition.C. Laughter can reduce the effect of pain. D. Laughter is the best medicine.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。A:_36_B:ImgoingbacktomyhometownandthenId liketotravelwithmyfriends.A:Really? _37_B:Ihaventdecidedyet.Canyougivemesome advice?A:IsuggestyoushouldgotoYunnanforavisit.Itsgreat.Iwenttherelastsummer.B: _38_A:Well, inthatcase, Shanghaimustfit you most.

Firstly, we must understand the language when we hear 61. spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it correctly with confidence and without hesitation. 62. , we must be able to read the language, and fourthly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are 63._ (grammatical) correct. There is no easy way to success in language learning. 64. good memory is of great help, but it is not enough only 65. (memorize) rules from a grammar book. It is not much use learning by heart the long list of words and 66. (they) meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by 67. (use) the language. If we are satisfied with only a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. “Learn through use” is a good piece of 68. (advise) for those 69. are studying a new language. Practice is important. We must practice speaking and 70. (write) the language whenever we can.61. _ 62 . _ 63. _ 64. _ 65. _66. _ 67. _ 68. _ 69. _ 70. _第四部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）下面短文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号()，并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面 写出修改后的词。注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；2只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。Myoldfriend,Harrison,hadlivedintheMediterraneanformany yearsafterhereturnedback toEngland.Hehadoftendreamedofretire inEnglandandhadplanedtosettledowninthecountry.Hehadno soonerreturnedthatheboughtahouse andwenttolivein there.Almost immediatelyhebegantoplainabouttheweather,foreventhough itwasstillsummer,itrainedcontinuousanditwasoftenbitterly cold.Aftersomanyyearsofsunshine,Harrisongotashock.He actedasifhehadeve
