it.i felt superior about this matter untilthe other day i took my car to mail a small parcel. the journey is a matter of 281 steps. but i used the car. and i wasnt in any hurry, either, i had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis. it is an illness to which i had thought myself immune, for i was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. at that time, we regarded 25 miles as good days walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. it did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. and the effect was lasting. when i was 45 years old i raced and beata teenage football player the 168 steps up the stature of liberty. such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. but a well-known british physician, sir adolphe abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. a person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. and walking is an ideal form of exercise- the most familiar and natural of all.it was henry thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. the man walking can learn thetrees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. he cannot learn in a car.the car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. many people dont dare to approach nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. to them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. and much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.i say that the green of forests is the minds best light. and none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.28. what was life like when the author was young?a. people often walked 25 miles a dayb. people usually went around on foot.c. people used to climb the statue of liberty.d. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.29. the author mentions henry thoreau to prove that _.a. middle-aged people like getting back to nature b. people need regular exercise to keep fitc. walking in nature helps enrich ones mind d. going on foot prevents heart disease30. what is compared to “a steel river” in paragraph6?a.a ray of traffic light b. a queue of carsc. a flash of lightning d. a stream of people31. what is the authors intention of writing this passage?a. to encourage people to return to walking. b. to recommend people to give up drivingc. to advise people to do outdoor activities.d. to tell people to reflect more on life.da scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. some last a few minutes before they give in. but others are determined to wait until the last moment. by the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. a survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. the children who gave in to temptation early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible.actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesnt show up on an iq test. the hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists concerns. but brain theory cant explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul. here comes the theory of daniel goleman, writer of emotional intelligence: when it comes to predicting peoples success, brain ability as measured by iq may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.eq is not the opposite of iq. what researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how ones ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. among the elements for success, researchers now generally agree that iq counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck. while many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear eq invites misuse. 32. the experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that _.a. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment b. emotional intelligence wont show up until adolescence c. candy can be used to measure a persons emotional intelligence d. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success 33. which of the following is true of eq and iq according to the text? a. scientists are trying to discover the way in which eq and iq work together. b. the higher a persons iq is, the higher his or her eq is.c. some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either. d. there is no link between eq and iq.34. the underlined word “upbeat” in paragraph 4 probably means _.a. optimistic b. floating c. excited d. kind35. what is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?a. information about famous people with high eq. b. some reasons why eq is a relatively new field.c. examples showing the opposite voice about eq. d. strong demand for basic emotional education.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据下列短文内容，从文章后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。faces, like fingerprints, are unique. did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? _36_. yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pigeon , can learn to recognize faces. we all take this for granted._37_. when we talk about someones personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.like the human face, human personality is very complex. but describing

differences in peoples behavior. _ _39_. bookworms, conservatives, military types people are described with such terms.people have always tried to “type” each other. actors in early greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains or the heros role. in fact, the words “person” and “personality” come from the latin persona, meaning “mask”. today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. _40_. a. if you were asked to describe what a “nice face” look like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so.b. but we can easily tell the “good guys” from the “bad guys” because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.c. we also tell people apart by how they behave.d. people have difficulty in describing the features of fingerprints.e. and many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing ones personality.f. experts say that actors differ in their behavioral and physical characteristics in acting.g. even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another.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和d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项tracy
