and this would continue in the future. once the bears are all dead, the tourists will stop visiting the village. but if the bears keep visiting the villages, then, perhaps, so will the tourists.25. the best title for this passage would be _.a. hungry brown bears b. brown bears in the forestc. wandering brown bears d. brown bearsa wonder26. it is unusual to the writer that _.a. the brown bears like to be taken photos of.b. the bears come out at night to look for food c. the bears just take bits of food thrown awayd. the bears have attacked a farmers sheep 27. the villagers could continue to earn money from the bears if _.a. they shot the bears for sport b. people paid more money to kill themc. more tourists came to see the bears d. the villagers sold the bears skins to tourists28. what will happen to the bears in the future?a. they may be kept in zoos. b. they may become extinct.c. they may keep eating rubbish. d. they may be watched by visitors. csun tours: short breaks in new yorkday 1: times square and the lincoln centerwelcome to new yorkthe big apple! here in new york the wonders of the big apple exceed (超出) all expectationsthe fantastic skyline, wonderful restaurants, theaters, museums, shops and attractions. on your first day you will visit the famous lincoln and rockefeller centers, and drive down fifth avenue. you will drive through times square, the “crossroads of the world”. you will then travel to central park, a miracle in the center of manhattan. lunch is on your own, but this evening you will have dinner at the famous jekyll and hyde club, where the waiters are all dressed as vampires（吸血鬼）, and at some point in the evening frankenstein （科学怪人）comes to life.day 2: exploring the citythe entire day is yours for sightseeing and shopping. explore the attractive city of new york with its skyscrapers, bridges, historic landmarks and broadway theaters.day 3: downtown and south street seaporttoday you will visit greenwich village, wall street and the world trade center. you will visit south street seaport, a 19th-century seaport with narrow streets, hundreds of shops, an international food stand and street entertainment. this afternoon you will visit chinatown, and finally the empire state building observatory, which towers 1,250 feet above new york city. you will use the high-speed elevators to go to the top, unlike king kong who climbed up the outside of the building. this evening, you will have dinner at the well-known tavern-on-the-green restaurant overlooking central park.arriving in new yorka sun tours representative will meet you at jfk airport and take you to your hotel, which is in the center of the city. when you check in, you will receive further information about this evenings “getting-to know-each-other” party at the manhattan restaurant.29. if you want to join in this tour, which of the following will you contact?a. sun tours b. hyde club c. greenwich village d. jfk airport 30. how many places will you visit on the third day?a. five b. six c. seven d. eight31. what can we know from the last paragraph?a. you will go to the hotel in the center of the city by yourself. b. when you arrive at the airport, you will be told about the tour plan.c. you have known all about the manhattan restaurant before your arrival.d. when you check in, you will know more about the evening party.dif you say, “the cats out of the bag” instead of “the secret is given away,” youre using an idiom. the meaning of an idiom is different from the actual meaning of the words used. “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” is a proverb. proverbs are old but familiar sayings that usually give advice. both idioms and proverbs are part of our daily expressions. many are very old and have interesting histories. see how many of these expressions you know. “bury the hatchet.”native americans used to bury weapons to show that fighting had ended and enemies were now at peace. today, the idiom means to make up with a friend after an argument of fight.“a close shave.”in the past, student barbers learned to shave on customers. if they shaved too close, their customers might be cut or even hardly escape serious injury. today, we use the idiom if a person narrowly escapes disaster.“raining cats and dogs.”in norse mythology the dog is associated with wind and the cat with storms. this expression means its raining very heavily.to “shed crocodile tears.”crocodiles have a reflex that causes their eyes to tear when they open their mouths. that makes it look as though they are crying while swallowing their food. in fact, neither crocodiles nor people who shed “crocodile” tears feel sorry for their actions.“saved by the bell.”in 17th-century england, a guard at windsor castle was accused of falling asleep at his post. he claimed he was wrongly accused and could prove it; he had heard the church bell chime (鸣响) thirteen times at midnight. townspeople supported his claim and he was saved. today we think of the bell that ends a round in boxing, often saving the boxer from injury, or the bell at the end of a class period, saving you from more work. now this idiom means rescue from a situation at the last possible moment.32. the best title of this passage will probably be _.a. everyday expressions b. not idioms but proverbs c. idioms and proverbs are old d. idioms or proverbs33. the purpose of this article is to _.a. compare some useful and interesting idioms and proverbs b. tell us some idioms and proverbs which can be used today c. explain the meaning of some interesting everyday expressionsd. show the importance of using proverbs and idioms in your writing34. it can be inferred from the article that _.a. idioms and proverbs are a must in our lifeb. proverbs are more common than idiomsc. idioms are more interesting than proverbsd. it is difficult to guess the meaning of idioms35. which of these statements is an example of “a close shave”?a. my brother bought a new computer yesterday.b. my friend will come to my city to see me.c. a car nearly hit me on my way to school.d. no one in my school has ever been to canada.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。every student has tests when they are at school. but have you ever been so worried about the tests that you cant fall asleep at night? have you ever felt sick or had a headache during a test? 36 . this worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. you may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid - which can give you a stomachache or a headache. 37 . good or normal stress might happen when you are called to answer a question in class or when you have to give a speech. this kind of stress can help you to get things better done. 38 .but bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over a long time. you may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is ill, if you are having problems at school, or if you are going through anything else that makes you upset every day. 39 . 40 . that means making good decision about how to spend your time. if you are only dealing with school stuff and have no time to play, you can get stressed. make sure you keep your self in mind: sleep, exercise, leisure and food. if you take care of yourself and get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun stuff, you will probably be less stressed out!a. however, there are two different kinds of stress. b. can you tell a kind of stress from another one? c. the best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life. d. that kind of stress isnt going to help you, and it can actually make you sick. e. since bad stress is harmful for us, youd better try to change it into good stress.f. if so, then you know what stress is. stress is what you feel when you are worried or uncomfortable about something.g. for example, you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare well before the test. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分；满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(a、b、c、d)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。f-a-m-i-l-yi bumped into a stranger as he passed by, “oh, excuse me, please.” was my reply. he said, “please 41 me too;
