Pirates have gone farther south and east in answer to increased patrols (巡逻) by warships off the Somali shore. The robbing of the three ships Sunday was about 600 miles outside the normal operation area for the international force, said a spokesman. The spokesman said the attack so far out at sea was a clear sign that the international patrols against pirates were having a “marked effect on pirate activity in the area”. The three ships the MV Prantalay 11, 12, and l 4 had 77 members on board in total. All of them are Thai, the spokesman said. Before the Sunday robbing, pirates held 11 ships and 228 sailors.1.How many sailors were held by the pirates up to the time of the report?A. 228.B. 77.C. 305.D. 383.第2招：不要试图在原文中直接寻找答案阅读理解 Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air couriers.

It is either reflected or absorbed by the gases in the upper atmosphere. Of the energy that reaches the lower atmosphere, 30% is reflected by clouds or the Earths surface. The remaining 70% warms the surface of the planet, causes water to evaporate, and provides energy for the water cycle and weather. Only a tiny part, approximately 0.023%, is actually used by green plants to produce food.3.Only a small part of the Suns energy reaches the Earths surface because most of it is _.A. absorbed by the clouds in the lower atmosphereB. reflected by the gases in the upper atmosphereC. lost in the upper and lower atmosphereD. used to evaporate water from the oceans and lakes第4招：理清上下文的逻辑关系阅读理解 A Brown University sleep researcher has some advice for people who run high schools: Dont start classes so early in the morning. It may not be that the students who nod off at their desks are lazy. And it may not be that their parents have failed to enforce (确保) bedtime.

And when youre doing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation (感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisionsthose are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh. Psychologists have known that one persons perception (感知) of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlows work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills. Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries. To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses (假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink. “We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.5.We can infer from the passage that _.A. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwideB. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiencesC. capable persons are often cold to othersD. physical temperature affects how we see others阅读理解 Andrew Ritchie, inventor of the Brompton folding bicycle, once said that the perfect portable bike would be “like a magic carpet.You could fold it up and put it into your pocket or handbag”.

My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games, Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of Dads shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet, she went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course shed let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when wed be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.

People pay restaurant bills with their bank card, check into hotels or travel around. In every case, they leave a trace. And because of this, Im able to track them down even when they dont want to be found. The first thing I do when I want to find out where someone is staying is to go to the neighborhood where he used to live. Its human nature to tell stories which is why neighbors will tell me all they know when I ring at their houses. Sometimes, someone even talks about his friends dishonesty. Then I produce a pattern of my subjects life: if he likes to have a holiday in Spain or in Italy, if he prefers two-or three-star hotels and where he might hide his assets (资产). When Ive got this life pattern, I start my research. Nine times out of 10, I find the people Im looking for. I once investigated a lorry supplier who owed 500 000 to a subcontractor (分包商). The subcontractor wanted to find out if it was worth bringing charges against the supplier. I found out the supplier had moved assets to his son, who founded a new company offering the same product. It was all done within the law. There was no money to be got from that operation. However, I asked the son if I could speak to his father and he told me that his parent was on a long holiday in Spain and wouldnt be back for a while. It didnt take me long to find out that the father wasnt in Spain. I went back to the son and this time he told me that his father might be in Bulgaria, and I found him doing winter sports in a beautiful mountain area. He was living in a big house on a large piece of land he had bought for 400 000. This was exactly the kind of asset my customer was looking for.15.We may infer from the text that the subcontractor might _.A. get his money backB. give up hope of settling the debtC. bring charges against the lorry suppliers sonD. sell the big house in Bulgaria阅读理解3 A small town in southwest Britain is banning (禁止) plastic bags in an attempt to help the environment and cut wastea step that environmentalists believe is a first for Europe. Shopkeepers in Modbury population 1,500, agreed to stop handing out disposable plastic bags to customers on Saturday. They said paper sacks and cloth carrier bags would be offered instead. Last month, San Francisco became the first U.S. city to ban plastic grocery bags. Internationally, laws to discourage the use of plastic bags have been passed in parts of South Africa and Ireland, where governments either tax shoppers who use them or fine companies that hand them out. Bangladesh already bans them, and so do at least 30 remote Alaskan villages. Modbury, about 225 miles southwest of London, has also declared a bag amnesty (宽限期), allowing local people to hand in plastic bags that have piled up at home. They will be sent for a recycling. The Modbury ban was the idea of Rebecca Hosking, who saw the effect of bags on manne life while working in the Pacific as a wildlife camerawoman. She said response (反应) in the town so far had been “really positive”. “Modbury is quite an old-fashioned town and a lot of people have wicker baskets to go out shopping anyway,” Hosking told Sky News Television. The World Watch Institute, an environmental research agency, states that 100 billion plastic bags are thrown away each year in the United States alone. More than 500 billion are used yearly around the world.39.What was Rebecca Hosking?A. An environmentalist.B. A photographer.C. A sailor.D. A lawyer.40.The underlined word “disposable” in the passage probably means _.A. throw-awayB. long-lastingC.

San Francisco is the first city to ban plastic bags in the worldD. fewer and fewer plastic bags will be used in the world.42.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A. Big Cities Banning Plastic BagsB. Environmental ProtectionC. Effect of Plastic Fags on Sea AnimalsD. British Town Banning Plastic Bags阅读理解4Sunday, October 5Clear, 69 F My wife, Eleanor, and I took the train from Paris to Strasbourg, where we were met by our driver and guide, and the minibus which goes along with the boat.

Monday, October 6Rained last night, cloudy in the morning, 69 F We spent about two hours in Nancy, then sailed on the Canal de la Marne au Rhine.

However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off. Shades of that spirit spread over todays conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light-heartedly out the door, picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says its going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the race with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, for his smile. Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh that bus left five minutes ago.” Dreams of head-cutting! Its not the news that makes someone angry. Its the unsympathetic attitude with which its delivered. Everyone must give bad news from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way A boss informing an employee he didnt get the job takes on a sympathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver. Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When youre tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isnt ready yet? When you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces. Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warning. Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh, thats all right. Ill catch the next one.” Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded (被轰炸的) person is sure to have. 24.In Paragraph 1, the writer tells the story of the pharaoh to _.A. make a comparisonB. describe a sceneC. introduce a topicD. offer an argument25.In the writers opinion, his neighbor was _.A. not considerateB.

D. wished that the sales agent would have had dreams.27.What is the main idea of the text?A. Learning ancient traditions can be useful.B. Delivering bad news properly is important in communication.C. Receiving bad news requires great courage.D. Helping others sincerely is the key to business success.阅读理解6 Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window. I walked to the door and knocked. “Just a minute.” answered a weak, elderly voice. After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman i
