in buying a dog? a dog can be a good friend to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, it can cause you a lot of trouble. families should sit down and discuss the problems before buying a dogeven if the children in your family are the ones who want the dog，the parents are the ones who are really responsible(有责任的) for seeing that the animal is properly cared forif you dont know much about dogs，its a good ides to go to the library for books about different kinds of dogs，as well as books about how to train a young dog. dogs of different kinds change in popularity as the years go by. one of the most popular dogs these days is the german shepherd(牧羊犬). this is because it provides protection. the family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may he too powerful for children, if your house is not big, a toy dog may be a good choice(选择). these dogs are very small and easy to train. they dont need to be walked daily.41. according to the passage, who

secondly, we must speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). thirdly, we must be able to write it. lastly, we must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar. there is no short way to succeed in language learning. a good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize(记忆) the rules from a grammar book. it is no much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. we must learn by using the language. if we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. we must “learn through use”. practice is important. we must practice speaking and writing the language whenever we can.44. the most important things to learn a foreign language are _. a. understanding and speakingb. listening, speaking, reading and writing. c. writing and understanding. d. memorizing and listening.45. someone hears and writes english very well, but he speaks it very

the most important in learning a foreign language? a. a good memory. b. speaking c. practice d. writing48. “learn through use” means _. a. we use a language in order to learn it. b. we learn a language in order to learn it. c. we can learn a language well while we are using it. d. both b and c.clondoners are great readers. they buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and of books - especially paperbacks, which are still comparatively cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. they still continue to buy “proper” books, too, printed on good paper and bound（装订）between hard covers. there are many streets in london containing shops which specialize in book-selling. perhaps the best known of these is charring cross road in the very heart of london. here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which boasts of being “the biggest bookshop in the world” to the tiny, dusty little places which seem to have been left over from dickens time. some of these shops stock, or will obtain, any kind of book, but many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books on philosophy, politics or any other of the countless subjects about which books may be written. one shop in this area specializes only in books about ballet! although it may be the most convenient place for londoners to buy books, charring cross road is not the cheapest. for the really cheap second-hand books, the collector must venture off the beaten track, to farringdon road, for example, in the east central district of london. here there is nothing so impressive as bookshops. the booksellers come along each morning and pour out their sacks（麻袋） of books onto small hand carts. and the collectors, some professionals and some amateurs, have been waiting for them. in places like this they can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old one that may be worth many pounds.49. “londoners are great readers” means that _.a. londoners are great because they read a lot. b. there are a great number of readers in londonc. londoners are readers who read only great books d. londoners read a lot50. according to this passage, charring cross road _.a. is in the suburbs（郊区） of london b. is famous for its bookshopsc. contains various kinds of shops d. is the busiest street in london51. in this passage, what does the underlined part “venture off the beaten track” mean? _.a. buy books in a most busy street b. move away from a busy streetc. waste time looking for books d. take a risk of losing ones life52. on farringdon road, _.a. you can find fine bookshops for the latest booksb. there are only small bookshops for the second-hand booksc. you can see book sellers selling books on hand-cartsd. the same books as the ones in the bookshops of charring cross road are solddtalking on a mobile phone is expensive, so a lot of people send text messages. text messages are much cheaper than talking on a mobile phone, and you can make it even cheaper by shortening the words that you use. you can do this by taking out “unimportant” letters in the words and using numbers instead of words (2=to, 3=free, 4=for , 8=ate , h8= hate.etc.) here is an example: im 3 nw, why nt gv me a cll? (im free now, why not give me a call?) mobile phone users have developed a series of symbols to show how they feel. they are called emoticons（情感符号）. to read an emoticon , you have to look at it sideways. for example, if you say something in a text message which is a joke, you can follow it with a smiling face. like this: why didt u cll me ? im so sad. :-)here are some others. can you think of these text messages where you could use them? :-( sad :- really sad |-| asleep :-v shouting 8-| surprised53the underlined word “sideways” means in this passage . a从侧面地b从外面地c斜眼地d颠倒地54what do you think of this text message “whr hv u bn ? im wtng 4 u means ? a. where have you been ? im waiting for you . b. where have you been ? im looking for you . c. what are you doing ? im waiting for you . d. what are you dong ? im looking for you .55which one means “laughing” in the text messages ? a. :-( b. :-) c. :- d. 8-|第二节 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。（每小题2分）everyone knows that fish is good for health.56 but it seems that many people dont cook fish at home. americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. buying, storing, and cooking fish isnt difficult.57 this text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.58 fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that youre standing at the oceans edge. any fishy or strong smell means the fish isnt fresh.59 when you have bought a fish and arrive home, youd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you dont cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. frozen fish isnt as tasty as the fresh one.there are many common methods used to cook fish.60 first, clean it and season it with your choice of spices(调料). put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound.
