The win makes Mo Yan the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel in its 111-year history. Informed of his win today, the author, who was having dinner at home, was “overjoyed and scared”. Born in 1955 to parents who were farmers, Mo Yan a pen name for Guan Moye, grew up in Gaomi, Shandong province in eastern China. At the age of 12, he left school to work, first in agriculture, later in a factory. In 1976 he joined the army and during this time began to study literature and writing. He published his first book in 1981, but found literary success in 1987 with Hong Gaoliang Jiazu, which was successfully filmed in the same year, directed by famous Chinese director Zhang Yimou. In his writing, Mo Yan draws on his youthful experiences and on settings in the province of his birth and his works show the life of Chinese people as well as the countrys unique culture and folk customs. Mo Yan is known as a productive writer. In addition to his novels, he has published many short stories and essays on various topics. Despite his social criticism, he is seen in his homeland as one of the most famous contemporary authors. Dozens of his works have been translated into English, French, Japanese and many other languages. The awarding ceremony will be held on December 10. The winner will win a medal, a personal diploma and a cash award of about $1 million. 46.How did Mo Yan feel when he was told about the news?A. Excited and proud. B. Worried and cautious. C.

A World Famous Writer, Mo YanBDear Michelle,My Dad hates my Mom. He tells me that she is a liar and that I should not trust her. Of course, they are divorced but they have “joint custody” (共同监护). What a joke! I am 15, my brother is nine, and we have a life of hell, frankly.We live one week on and one week off. This was the brilliant idea of both of my parents, which was fair to them but ruining my life. I cannot get away from his voice and his putting my mom down. Sometimes I think about running away. A Hopeless Ant Dear Hopeless Ant,First, thank you for trusting me with your problem. If all you said is correct, then there are several things that you can and should do to help yourself, your brother, and oddly enough, your parents.You need a family counselor. Such a person could listen to each family member alone and then meet together to talk about the situation.If refused, you need to talk to a counselor in your school. You need to be heard, and you need an adult who will listen. A school counselor can organize a meeting with your parents.Perhaps you need to write to your mother. Writing things down allows people to go over it more than one time.I cannot imagine that she will stand passively by and do nothing at all to help once she reads how you feel. Your father needs a letter as well. He may not realize the destructive effect that it has on his children.Lastly, have a plan in mind when all else fails that is not self-destructive. Life passes very quickly, sweetheart, and you will grow up and have your own life.Until then, you need to keep yourself safe. Never doubt that it will get better. Write back and let me know how everything is going.Michelle49.The Hopeless Ant wrote the letter to _.A. express dissatisfaction with his parentsB. ask for advice seriouslyC. make his father punishedD. just make a joke50.

It lies in West Africa on the Gulf (海湾) of Guinea, to the south of Burkina Faso and Niger, between Togo on the west and Nigeria on the east.Benin used to be called Dahomey and was controlled and ruled by France from 1893 to 1960, when it became independent. In 1963 the army general Soglo overthrew (推翻) the first president Maga. Soglo set up an army government and called himself head of state in 1965, but was overthrown and replaced by a civilian (非军人) government in 1967. In December 1969 Benin had another change of power with the army again taking over. In May 1970, Maga and two other men set up a new government, with each of them acting as president in turn for two years. However, half a year after Maga turned over power to the second man Ahomadegbe, the three-man government was overthrown by the army once more and General Kerekou became president. In November 1975 Kerekou changed the name of the nation from Dahomey to Benin, Benin being the name of a 17th century kingdom covering the same place. Kerekou also announced that Benin would be a Peoples Republic based on Marxism-Leninism.53.Which of the following maps shows rightly the positions of Benin and its neighbouring countries?

Our planet has shrunk. Its now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly increased by foreign language skills.Deeply involved with this new technology is a kind of modern businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts. Overseas assignments (指派) are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive (行政) ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the companys plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to manage back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more common. Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices (装置) with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets. English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isnt generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.The employee posted abroad who speaks the countrys language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight (洞察力) to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign customers over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset (有价值的人或物) to the firm. 57.With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, businesspeople _.A. are eager to work overseas B. have to get familiar with modern technology C. are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations D. are attaching more importance to their overseas business 58. In this passage, “out of sight and out of mind” (Line 3, Para. 3) probably means _. A. leaving all care and worry behind B. being unable to think properly for lack of insight C. being totally out of touch with business at home D. missing opportunities for promotion when abroad59.According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today? A. Ability to speak the customers language. B. Connections with businesses overseas.C. Technical know-how. D. Business experience. 60. The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can _. A. fast-forward their proposals to headquarters B. better control the whole negotiation process C. easily make friends with businesspeople abroadD. easily find new approaches to meet market needs 第二节（共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容, 从下框AF选项中选出能概括每段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。 A.

That year their sales (for the 16 of them) were close to 250 million thats right, a quarter of a billion dollars! Needless to say, it was an excellent and interesting time.

Instead, they saw that life was to be enjoyed and that means they were able to laugh a lit
