It has cost more than 25 million and taken 10,000 writers to update the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Murder victims Stephen Lawrence and James Bulger are among those joining the likes of Queen Victoria and Gandhi. The new version of the dictionary, which was founded in 1882, costs 7,500 and takes up 12 feet of shelf space. Projects director Robert Faber said Stephen Lawrence was included because his death triggered dramatic developments in British policing and social policy. Women make up 10% of the entries - double the previous share - and include Queen Elizabeth I, Dusty Springfield, Linda McCartney and Virginia Woolf, whose father compiled the first edition. Alongside the famous names are lesser known individuals such as the inventor of snooker, army reservist (预备役军人) Neville Chamberlain. Stephen Lawrence and James Bulger were both included because of the overwhelming soul-searching (真挚的自我反省、深思) and examination of education and social policy which followed their deaths. Mr Faber said: These are not just people who were killed but people who had an impact. Jill Dando is there as much for her career but also because her death became a public event. So many of these people have seized the public imagination and have contributed to public debate.56 How many women are profiled in the New Oxford Dictionary of National Biography?AAbout 5. BAbout 55. CAbout 550. D About 5500.57. It can be inferred that Jill Dando _.Adied in a case of murder which drew the public much attentionBisnt included in the Oxford Dictionary of National BiographyCis the director of the Oxford Dictionary of National BiographyD is included in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography only for her death58. _ are collected in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography.AThose who were murdered in historyBThose who have shaped BritainCThose who are famous all over the world DThose who live in Britain59. How much does a volume of the new version cost on average?AMore than 25million. BMore than 400, 000.C7, 500. D125.BIt takes an entire village to raise a child. Thats an old proverb (谚语) that is being quoted more and more often these days. And Im pleased about that.Today, more and more schools are reaching out to involve parents, community members and businesses (工商企业) to help shape a childs future. Parents need to be involved in their childrens education in many ways. Helping children with homework and studying, going on a field trip, teaching a craft (手工艺) or coaching a childs sports team are all great ways to be involved with your childs education. And dont forget to communicate with teachers they need and respect your input. Studies show that children learn more and schools function better when parents and schools work together. Its important to stay in touch with your childs education all through his or her school career. Communities can help children create and achieve new goals. Help with homework, read to a child, coach a childrens team, or provide emotional (情感上的) support. Help solve problems and build self-esteem (自尊心). Kids need role models and advisers can be role models by sharing their experiences and wisdom. Businesses can also help shape our childrens future. Invite a class from your local school to visit your workplace. You may be providing a glimpse that opens a new world of possibilities. Show students what goes on during a typical day. Give a mini course for students: how to use a computer; how products are made; how machinery works. You may have a developing electrician, teacher, nurse, or even a newspaper reporter on your hands. It really does take an entire village to raise a child. So share the responsibility(职责) - and the joy - of bringing a child to his or her full potential(潜能).60. The implied advice in the proverb It takes an entire village to raise a child. is that _. AAll the people in a village should give food to a child.BSchools, parents, and other organizations should share the responsibility of shaping a childs future.CChildren should be brought up in the village where they were born.DSchools should be set up in the village where a child was raised.61. The text was written mainly for _.Aparents and members in organizationsBteachers and studentsCnewspaper reporters and developing electricians Deducation experts and government officials62. Students can get developed in practical working skill through _.Aparental involvementBcommunity activitiesCbusiness training Dschool teaching63. Which is NOT true according to the passage?AParents play an important part in childrens education.BCommunities have not a bit effect on the way to new and high ideal.CEducating a child well demands of the work not only from school but from other organizations.DBusinesses may arrange some training courses for students.CSix Americans are working on a new highway. But this highway wont have any trafficIts an ice highway to the South Pole. The team has just finished a second year of work on the 1,020-mile highway. The road is the greatest single footprint of activity weve seen in the Antarctic (南极洲), said Alan Hemmings, an Australian environmentalist.The highway will provide a new way for supplies to be trekked (拉, 搬) across the earth on tractor-pulled sleds (雪橇). This method will use a lot less fuel than an aircraft, the current (当前的) way that scientists and supplies reach the Amundsen-Scott Base, a U.S. research station in the South Pole. The highway will also allow for equipment that is too big for planes to carry to be brought to AntarcticaEven with these benefits, there is one disadvantage a round trip on the road will be 30 days, compared to a few hours by plane. Making this 20-foot-wide road isnt easy, and it takes a lot of time. The crew (工作队) has been working on the road for two summers, when its warmer and easier to work with the ice. It probably wont be completed until 2006. Crevasses (裂缝), or cracks, in the land often make the construction difficult. Crevasses are kind of like pot holes that form when surface ice is stretchedThis can be very dangerous, especially when the crevasses are hidden under a layer (层) of snow and cant be seen. Last year it took us three months to go three miles across a crevasse field, full of dangerous, hidden crevasses, said the projects manager, John Wright. Each year, more crevasses appear and they have to be filled with snow and ice so the road is safe for travel. The road will also be lined with green flags so travelers know where the safe surface is.64. When it is finished, the highway will not be used for _.Agiving supplies to the research station in the South PoleBtaking scientists to the South PoleCtaking travelers to a tour of AntarcticDbringing huge equipment to Antarctic65. How many miles can be covered at most each day if you take the ice highway to the South Pole?A30. B34.C68. D88.66. Which of the following is true according to the passage?AOther crevasses wont appear if a crevasse has been filled.BMany new crevasses will form after a crevasse has been filled.CTravelers can drive their sleds on the ice highway freely. DThere will be less danger if the crevasses are covered by snow.DBeauty has always been regarded as something admirable. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal consultants (顾问) give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive persons. But in the executive circle (政界), beauty can become a liability.While attractiveness is a positive thing for a mans rise, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to be the reasons for their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Why are attractive woman not thought to be able? An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine (女性的) and an attractive man more masculine (男性的) than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the masculine qualities requiredThis is true even in politics. Anne Bowman recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates (候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked lo rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the woman who had been ranked most attractive always received the fewest votes.67In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness _.Astrengthens the feminine qualities requiredBmakes women look more honest and capableCis of great importance to womenDoften enables women to succeed quickly68Bowmans experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness _.Aturns out to be an obstacle to men Baffects men and women alikeChas as little effect on men as on womenD is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women69It can be inferred from the passage that peoples views on beauty are often _.ApracticalBold-fashionedCprejudiced (偏见的) Dserious70The author writes this passage to _.Adiscuss the negative aspects of being attractiveBgive advice to job-seekers who are attractiveCdemand equal rights for womenDemphasize the importance of appearance第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题l分，满分l0分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Heres how:1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Dont forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject. 3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world wont end
