marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. if he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. for commitment is in fact quite painful. the single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three-day vacation. i dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. but couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. it liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. it liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. and it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.51.according to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _ .a. he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesb. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singlec. he finds more fun in dating than in marriaged. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement52.to understand what true happiness is one must _ .a. have as much fun as possible during ones lifetimeb. make every effort to liberate oneself from painc. put up with pain under all circumstancesd. be able to distinguish happiness from fun53.what is the author trying to tell us?a. happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.b. one must know how to attain happiness.c. it is important to make commitments.d. it is pain that leads to happiness.bwomen should not drink any alcohol during pregnancy. a report released by nice says. it says if they must drink, they should not do so in the first three months and should limit to one or two ounces once or twice a week afterwards. it replaces previous guidance of saying small daily amounts were fine.nice decided to tighten its guidance partly because of the concern that people are now drinking more than in the past. previous draft guidance suggested women should drink an ounce of alcohol a day once they were past the first three months of pregnancy. the department of health in england changed its guidance last year, calling for no drinking while pregnant or while trying to get pregnant. drinking heavily in pregnancy can cause fetal alcohol syndrome (胎儿酒精综合症), which can leave children with features like small heads, widely spaced eyes and behavior or learning problems,the experts said there was no evidence that several ounces once or twice a week would do any harm to the baby but could not categorically rule out (排除) any risk. national childbirth trust agreed women should limit their drinking during pregnancy. “pregnant women who have had a few drinks often worry a great deal about whether they have harmed their baby. in general, it is believed that if a light infrequent drinker, in good health, drinks to the point of drunkenness on one occasion, the risk to her baby is small.”nice also made a number of other recommendations for the care of women in the uk who were pregnant or planning to get pregnant. it said vitamin d and folic acid (叶酸) supplements should be offered by health staff to help avoid conditions such as rickets (软骨病) and spina bifida (脊椎裂). officials also called for local health officials to ensure equal support plans where mothers encourage new parents to breastfeed are set up. nice also called for improvements in the care of pregnant women with diabetes. about 20;000 pregnancies each year are affected by diabetes and, therefore, carry, higher risk of miscarriage (流产) and still birth. the guidance said women should get access to advice and support, in particular to achieve good blood sugar control before they get pregnant.54. whats the meaning of the underlined word categorically in paragraph 4 ?a. honestly.b. absolutely.c. physically.d. doubtfully.55. according to the passage, miscarriage is caused most probably by _.a. the lack of vitamin d and folic acidb. rickets and spina bifidac. the lack of doctors advice and supportd. diabetes carded by pregnant women56. national childbirth trust found that _. a. a pregnant woman drinking alcohol infrequently has little risk to her babyb. pregnant women who drink a little occasionally are always afraid of the effectsc. there is no evidence that a pregnant woman drinking alcohol might harm her babyd. getting drunk once wont harm the baby57.in this passage, the author mainly intends to _. a. show nices new guidance on pregnant womens alcohol drinking and its advice for the care of pregnant womenb. warn pregnant women against any alcohol during pregnancyc. show the present situation of pregnant womens drinking limitd. call for more care for pregnant women in societycamericans are pound of their variety- and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. why are uniforms so popular in the united states? among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. people have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. the television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. what easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity (身份) than to step out of uniform ?uniforms also have many practical benefits. they save on other clothes. they save on laundry bills.they are tax-deductible (可减税的). they are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. when people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.58. people are accustomed to thinking that a man in uniform_.a. suggests quality workb. discards his social identityc. appears to be more practicald. looks superior to a person in civilian clothes59. the chief function of a uniform is to_. a. provide practical benefits to the wearerb. make the wearer catch the public eyec. inspire the wearers confidence in himselfd. provide the wearer with a professional identity60. according to the passage, people wearing uniforms_.a. are usually helpfulb. have little or no individual freedomc. tend to lose their individualityd. enjoy greater popularity61. the best title for this passage would be_.a. uniforms and society b. the importance of wearing a uniform c. practical benefits of wearing a uniform d. advantages and disadvantages of uniformsd the price of milk may be going up. there was not enough rain in some parts of the country last year and the bad weather may mean that a gallon (加仑) of milk will cost 41 cents more after october 1st. california already has high milk prices and the california court does not want the price to go any higher. high milk prices will be very hard for some people. families with many children will have to spend more money to buy milk. the poor and older people without much money will also be hurt by higher prices. the court said that more milk from other states should be sold in california as the price of milk from other states is not as high. some states got enough rain so their costs did not go up. people will then be able to buy the cheaper milk, meaning that unless milk producers bring their milk prices down, their milk will not sell. the drought (干旱) around the country has meant market forces are likely to push milk prices up by as much as 41-cent a gallon by october 1st. experts said this decision by the californian court could reduce (减少) the effect of the price rise here. the 41-cent increase would add to californias already high milk prices so california must allow more milk producers from outside the state to sell their products there. this would then lead to increased supplies (供应), which would, as a result, stop milk prices from increasing.62. who will be hurt by high milk prices? a. young people. b. rich people.c. milk producers from outside california. d. families with lots of children.63. what is the third paragraph mainly about?a. more milk can be brought in from other states.b. milk prices in other states will drop.c. some states got enough rain. d. people like to buy cheaper milk.64. what will california do to keep milk prices down? a. force milk producers to lower their price.b. encourage people to drink less milk.c. get men to produce more rain. d. increase the supply of milk in the state.65. what are we told in the passage? a. the milk price in california is already high. b. its almost impossible to reduce milk prices. c. california has made a decision to produce more milk.d. milk prices will increase by 41 percent.五、写作（共三节，满分20分）第一节 课文背诵（共10小题，每小题0.5分，满分5分）so why has english changed o 66 time? a 67 all languages change and develop when cultures meet and c 68 with each other. at first the english
