despite the most pains-taking research，no one has yet found the answer. one expla- ation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times，and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on. no one has yet found a cure for the cold. there are drugs and pain suppressors(止痛片)such as aspirin，but all they do is relieve the symptoms(症状) 21 .which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage? a. the eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time. b. people suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors. c. colds are not caused by cold d.a person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.22. arctic explorers may catch colds when_.a. they are coming into touch again with the outside worldb .they are writing reports in terribly cold weatherc. they are free from work in the isolated arctic regionsd. they are working in the isolated arctic regions23. the passage mainly discusses_. a .the experiments on the common cold b. the reason arid the way people catch colds c .the continued spread of common colds d .the fallacy about the common coldb american graduates will struggle to find jobs this year american graduates will find it tougher than ever to get jobs in the coming year, as american economy slows down and unemployment rises. experts say a chronic over-supply of graduates and a shortage of”high end jobs had already been causing difficulties，but the mass lay-offs and business closures(倒闭)in recent months has made the situation even worse. american prime minister has told students that the problem of graduate employment is” at the top of the governments agenda(议事日程)”.six and a half million graduates in america will be looking for a job over the next year. the government says it is going to try to create nine million jobs for them and for those from previous years who are still unemployed. that will not be easy，though . economic growth in america is expected by some to fall below the figure of 8%，cited by many as the minimum(最小值)needed to continue to create enough jobs. there are three problems for the new graduates to cope with. firstly，the economic slowdown here means there are fewer jobs available. secondly，widespread redundancies mean there are more experienced people than there might have been in previous years，trying to secure the same jobs as them. thirdly，there are many graduates from previous years who are still jobless. marry studied exhibition planning and management at los angeles business school. she said everyone thought it would be easy for her to get a job when she graduated. but even though she has had dozens of interviews at job fairs，she has not managed to land the kind of job she wanted. ”ive ended up with an intern(实习)job，”she says，”which is nothing to do with my major. she says she is earning about 230(159)a month，more than many of her classmates who have had to take jobs that give them half that，but far less than she had hoped for.”i might go back to school to study for a mastersdegree because its so hard，”she says.”hopefully finding a job will be easier with a higher qualification. 24. we can infer from the passage that_. a. the graduates this year will have enough jobs. b. the people will find jobs easily because the government will create nine million jobs for them this year. c. all of previous graduates have found jobs. d. not every graduate can find a job this year. 25.which of the following is not true according to the passage? a. marry studied exhibition planning and management b. marry did an intern job but it wasnt connected with her major. c. marry is easy to find a job because of her major.d. marry was unsatisfied with the income.26. from the theme，this text isa. a narrative story b. a financial commentc. a scientific report d. a piece of news27. the underlined word “qualification means_. a.品质 b.条件 c能力 d.证书cscientists are working to develop crop plants that can reduce the amount of water used for agriculture . almost sixty percent of the worlds fresh water withdrawals from rivers，lakes and other water resources go toward irrigating fields. scientists are using biotechnology as well as traditional breeding methods to develop water-saving crops to feed a growing world. tommy carter is a plant scientist in north carolina working for the agricultural research service it，the united states department of agriculture. he leads team drought，a group of re- searchers at five universities. they have been using conventional breeding methods to develop soy-beans that can grow well under dry conditions. tommy started working on drought-resistant soy- beans in1981.his research has taken him as far as china，where soybeans have been grown for thousands of years. farmers in the united states ,however, have grown soybeans for only about a century. tom my carter says the soybeans they grow arc for the most part genetically similar. more differences could better protect crops against climate changes that can reduce production. those changes in- elude water shortages which could increase from global warming. the agriculture department has a soybean germplasm collection(种质收集)，a collection of genetic material passed from one gen- eration to the next. members of team drought studied more than 2，500 examples from the collec- lion. they looked at those from asia and searched for germplasms that could keep plants from weakening and wilting(枯萎)during hot，dry summers in the united states. tommy says they found only five，but these slow-wilting lines can produce more than normal soybeans under drought conditions. the team is now doing field tests. the first breeding line is expected to be released next year for use by private seed companies and public soybean breeders. scientists are also working on other crop plants that either use less water or use it better，orboth.28. according to the passage，scientists try to find out how to_. a. save the worlds water resource b. increase crop production c. feed a growing world d. grow crops with less water29. why did tommy carter come to china? a. lie likes traveling. b. hes doing research into soybeans. c. china has a long history d. lie works for the agricultural research service.30. what do we know about slow-wilting plants talked about in the passage? a. they yield big profits. b. they seem to be drought-resistant. c. they can grow in almost any climate. d. they need much water for their growth.31 .the scientists are developing the crop plants because_. a. traditional crop plants cant grow under dry conditions b. only biotechnology could lead to a success in this area c. irrigating fields has used almost 60% of our freshwater d. we need new crops to save more water than ever befored five years ago，david smith wore an expensive suit to work every day.“i was a clothes ad- dict(迷)，”he jokes.“i used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so i could change if my clothes got wrinkled(皱的).”today david wears casual clothes-khaki pants and a sports shirt-to the office. lie hardly ever wears a necktie.“im working harder than ever，”david says，“and i need to feel comfortable.” more and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. in the united states，the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. in the early 1990s，many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on friday(but only on fri- day).this became known as“ dress-down friday or “casual friday .“what started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing，”said business adviser maisly jones. why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? one reason is that its easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code .“a lot of young people dont want to dress up for work，”says the owner of a software company，“so its hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code. another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. in a study made by levi strauss and company，85 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. “suits are expensive ,if you have to wear one every day，”one person said.“for the same amount of money，you can buy a lot more casual clothes.32. david smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict because a. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt b. he wanted his clothes to look tidy and clean all the time c. lie couldnt stand a clean appearance. d. he didnt want to spend much money on clothes33. david smith wears casual clothes now，because a. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes b. they make him feel at ease when working c. he looks handsome in casual clothes d. he no longer works for any company34. according to this passage，which of the following is false? a. many workers dont like a conservative dress code. b. comfortable clothes make workers more productivec. a casual clothes code is welcomed by young workers.d. all the employers in the u.s. are for casual office wear.35. in this passage，the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned except_a. saving workers money b. making workers more attractivec. improving workers feeling d. making workers happier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;侮小题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，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 a language is a signaling system which operates with symbolic vocal sounds(语声)，and which is used by a group of people for the purpose of communication. lets look at this 36 in more detail because it is language，more than anything else， 37 distinguishes man from the rest of the 38 world. other animals，it is true，communicate with one another by 39 of cries: for example， many birds utter 40 calls at the approach of danger ;monkeys utter 41 cries，such as expressions of anger, fear and pleasure. 42 these various means of communication differ in important ways 43 human language. for instance，animalscries do not 44 thoughts and feelings clearly. this means，basically，that they lack structure . they lack the kind of structure that 45 us to divide a human utterance into 46 we can change an utterance by 47 one word in it with 48 :a good illustration of this is a soldier who can say，e.g.，“tanks approaching from the north，49 who can change one word and say “aircraft approaching from the north or “tanks approaching from the west; but a bird has a single alarm cry， 50 means“danger!” this is why the number of 51 that an animal can make is very limited :the great tit(山 雀)is a case 52 point ;it has about twenty different calls，53 in human language the number of possible utterances is 54 .it also explains why animal cries are very 55 in meaning.36. a. classification b. perception c. function d. definition37. a. as b. which c. that d. what38. a. native b. animal c. physical d. human39. a. ways b. methods c. means d. approaches40. a. warning b. exciting c. mating d. boring41 .a. identical b. different c. similar d. unfamiliar42. a. furthermore b . therefore c. afterwards d. but43. a. about b . from c. with d. in44. a. express b. explain c. interpret d. infer45. a，encourages b. enforces c. enables d.ensures46. a. speeches b. sounds c.voices d. words47. a. spelling b. replacing c. pronouncing d. saying48. a.ours b.another c. theirs d. others49.a.so b. or c. but d. and50. a. which b. that c. this d. it51 .a. signs b. signals c. gestures d.marks52. a. at b. in c. of d. for53. a. somehow b.since c.anyhow d. whereas54. a. boundless b. changeable c. careless d. limitless55.a. general b. alike c.common d. ordinary第二部分阅读理解 第二节(共5小题;侮小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(请把答案写在卷ii的相应题号上) money matters parents should help their children understand money.56 so you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things，candy or toys，for example. 1 .the b
