that they had the same chance as men have, and believe it is still mens world,” said dr james holden, one of the scientists who did the study.anne harper has a very good job for an international oil company. she also believes in “women s liberation(解放)”. “i dont wish that i were a man,” she says, “and i dont think many women do. but i do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women. at work, for example, we often do the work that men do but get paid less. there are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best ones and open only to men. if youre a man, you have a much better chance of leading an exciting life. how many women pilots are there . or engineers or scientists?”56what can we learn from the first paragraph?a60% women in west germany wish that they were born men. bmost

old, short and tall, thin and fat. it is everybodys second language. it is easy to understand, although you cant hear it. it is sign language.when you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. when you smile at someone, you are saying, “i want to be friendly”, but you are not using speech. you are using sign language. when you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “please ask me. i think i know the correct answer.”babies who cant talk can point at things. they are using sign language. a policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hands. he is using sign language.many years ago, a french priest, charles michel de epee, became interested in education for deaf people. he invented a finger alphabet (字母表). it is still in use. people can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands, and deaf people can read and understand them. soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. the only university for the deaf is gallaudet college in washington, d.c.today, in the united states, there are special tv news programs for deaf people. the newsreader tells the news in sign language. at the same time, the words appear on the tv screen.the actors in the theatre of deaf dont spell every word. sometimes they use hand signs. when they put two hands together, it means sandwich. they can make a roof with their hands when they want to show a house. one finger in front of an actors mouth can mean quiet. you can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed. and when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under water.how many hand signs do you use every day? 60the passage is mainly about _.aa famous priest in francebthe importance of sign languagecan introduction to sign languagedhow to

62which of the following about sign language is true?ait is a special language used in a few countries in the world.bit is a way to express ones ideas without words.cit is only used by the deaf.dit can be heard.cyour friends might be in australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away. life has changed for millions of young people across the world who now make friends online. whether you use chat-rooms, qq, msn or icq, you are a member of this group.“i dont often talk with my parents or grandparents, but i talk a lot with my old friends on qq,” said foxs shadow, the online name used by a girl student in china. “most of my classmates use qq after school.”qq is the biggest messaging service in china. a record from tencent, the company which developed qq, shows that 4 million people used it one saturday night in october.and probably foxs shadow was one of them. “i log in on friday nights, and saturdays or sundays when i feel everything around me boring. i usually spend about ten hours chatting online every week,” she said. “but i never talk with strangers, especially boys or men.”even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online. “you dont know who youre talking to. you should always be careful about whom you believe in online.”many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have known someone very well. foxs shadow once met one of her online friends face to face. it was a girl who was a football fan like herself and they went to a football match together.a 16-year-old beijing boy, named bart simon online, dislikes qq users. “i used to chat on qq, but i found that most people were talking about foolish things,” he said. now he chats online in english, using msn. “i only chat online because ive got friends in japan, the us and singapore,” he said. “i want to learn more about foreign cultures.” but he spends little time chatting on qq as he sees it as a waste of time and money. “if you are really addicted to it, sometimes you cant give your mind to your lessons,” he said. “and friends in your real life are always more important than those so-called friends you meet online.”63from the passage, we know“they are all just a few clicks away” means“ ”.ait is wonderful to see your friends by clickingbit is popular to make friends onlinecit is possible to live much closer to your friendsdit is easy and fast to get in touch with your friends 64foxs shadow thinks qq is .aa good place to spend her time when bored bthe biggest messaging service in chinaca safe place

of our friends in real life.cwe should be careful about boys or men online.dchatting online is a waste of time and money.66the underlined phrase means .aturn on the computer benter in qq csurf the internet dmake friendsdwhat is it that makes people laugh? more than two thousand years ago the ancient greek philosopher (哲学家) aristotle defined (定义) jokes as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph by showing were better than someone else in a certain way. according to aristotle and many other philosophers，all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons that is，putting it clearly，on showing that they are worse off than ourselves. jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves at someone elses expense.showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes. someone may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty （残酷）or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us. we feel free to laugh when we hear about someone sliding on a banana skin. the joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society. this is probably the reason why some of the jokes，especially those involving cruelty，are so popular with certain people.besides，all jokes depend on our enjoyment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because its different from things which are happening around it. the same situation can be either sad or pleasant，depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is. if a girl in a bathing suit falls into a swimming pool，we dont laugh because nothing unusual has happened. but if a man in a smart suit falls in，the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh. a good joke-teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens，and so we laugh.67the underlined word “inferiority” (in paragraph 1) means _.asomeone that is better than someone elsebsomething that is better than something elsecsomeone that is as good as someone elsedsomething that is not as good as something else 68according to aristotle, all jokes depend mainly on _. aresulting in a sense of success bshowing inferiority in another person or group chaving a good opinion of other people dmaking people laugh unexpectedly69whats the main idea of paragraph 2?ato express those attitudes usually unacceptable to society is one of the reasons we like jokes.bwhen people are angry, they would like to hear jokes.cpeople who like jokes are usually cruel. dshowing we are better than other people is the only one reason we like jokes.70what will a good joke-teller always try to do? amake an unexpected thing happen in an expected situation bmake different things happen at the same time. cmake a sad situation into a pleasant one. dmake people laugh at something unusual and out of place. 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。how can we all get more laughter into our lives? here is what the experts suggest: 71 nancy alguire, a teacher in clifton park, n. y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing. then she married a circus clown (小丑). “i became interested in the clowns,” she recalls “one day i put on a costume and paint my face. that afternoon my whole life changed. i learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way i had never done before.” 72 to this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing. 73 it doesnt take you too much time and can be easy. collect favorite cartoons and jokes. also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life. “good ideas come and go fast, you have to catch them quickly or they are gone,” says virginia tooper.laugh when you need it most. “ 74 ” says comedian bill cosby. “and once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might by, you can survive it,” he insists.gray alan, a
