a. idioms about colors.b. idioms about history.c. idioms about animals.d. idioms about dogs.( )5. how many idioms about dogs are mentioned in this passage?a. 3 b. 4 c. 5d. 6( )6. which of the following statements is not true about the meaning of the idiom “dog-ear”? a. it means a turned-down corner of a page as a bookmark.b. it means someone makes a bookmark by turning down the corner of a page in the book.c. it means an old book with many broken pages.d. it means something is short and small like a dogs ear. cacting is a very crowded profession(职业) and the only advice to a young person thinking of going onto the stage is “dont!”. but still lots of young people would like to go, although very few of them will become famous. the normal way to begin is to go to a drama school. usually only very talented students are accepted, and the course lasts two years. then the young actor or actress usually works with a show company as an assistant(助理). this means doing everything in the theatre: painting, looking after the actors, taking care of the costumes, and even acting in very small parts. it is hard work indeed; the hours are long and the pay is poor. but young actors who are crazy about acting are happy, waiting for the chance of work with a better company, or perhaps in films or on television.of course, some people have great chances and they just succeed without this long and hard training. connie parrat, for example, was just a next-door girl working in a bicycle factory. a film producer happened to see her one morning at a bus stop as he drove past in his big car. he stopped and got out to speak to the girl. he asked her if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test. at first she thought he was joking, and then she got angry and said she would call the police. it took the producer twenty minutes to convince(使相信) connie that he was serious. then she went to the studio the next day. the test was successful. they gave her speech lessons and within a few weeks she was playing the lead role opposite one of the most famous actors of the day. of course, she was given a more popular name, which is now world-famous. but chances like this happen once in a blue moon!( )7. which word can best describe connie parrat according to her experience? a.lucky. b. beautiful. c. successful.d. famous.( )8. if we say “something happens once in a blue moon”, it must be very _. a. strangeb. rare c. interestingd. common( )9. what fact is not provided in the passage?a. too many people dream to become actors or actresses.b. a drama school usually offers a 2-year training courses.c. not all people can achieve success without hard work.d. young actors often complain about being badly paid. dchris is not a traditional explorer(探险家)he usually works in an office for a large organization. however, chris job can be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.chris works for msf, an organization also known as doctors without border(国界). since 1971, mfs has sent trained doctors all over the world to help people who have suffered from disasters, such as wars and illnesses. chris is a doctor from france who has traveled to many places to organize programs that help people.at the moment, over 27,000 trained doctors have taken part in msf projects. the organization received the nobel peace prize in 1999. all kinds of doctors can volunteer for msf. they need to be ready to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should face difficulties. most of msfs work is in africa. when msf chooses a doctor for a task, they have to go for at least six months. when doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency(紧急的) task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.but why would doctors leave a comfortable life and a good pay to join msf? according to chris, the experience they have is a great help in their life. whats more, just like the explorers of the past, they need to keep an open mind and learn to get on well with the people they meet. one thing that they can say at the end of any task is that they have made a real difference to peoples lives.( )10. what may msfs work be like?a. tiring and boring b. exciting and dangerous c. relaxing and colorful d. peaceful and comfortable( )11 as a volunteer doctor for msf, he or she should _.a. have worked in africa for six months b. have been sent on an emergency taskc. be ready to work for a task for at least half a yeard. have suffered from wars, illnesses or other disasters( )12. why would doctors like to join msf?

a. msf offers medical help to people who have suffered from disasters. b. msf received the nobel peace prize for helping poor countries. c. volunteer doctors make a real difference to their own lives in msf.d. chris is a doctor who has organized programs to help people.第二卷 （主观题 共40分）五、词汇运用（本大题共8分，每小题1分）（a）根据句意，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。1. the scientists have done a lot of _ (研究) to reduce the air pollution.2. my mother bought some _(牙刷) in the supermarket last friday. they are nice.3. it is _ (明智)to bring a mobile phone with you than to bring a map with you.4. all the students take an _ (积极的) part in the sunshine sport activities.（b）根据句意和汉语注释，写出单词的正确形式。5. he will be sent to england this summer for _ ( far ) studies.6. most of the people in the south live _ ( most ) on rice.7. he has been _( wake ) for half an hour, but he has not got up yet.8. wheres mr smith?
