For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼). Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computers mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器).I have had the disease for most of my life, Hawking once said.

Theyre very interesting and I can learn a lot from them. I like travelling and I have won a free four-week trip to England, but I know little about the British way of life. Would you please write to tell me something about the British meals?Thank you.Yours,Wang LinJanuary 1, 2005Dear Wang Lin,Its very helpful to know something about the British meals before travelling. In many English houses, people eat four meals a day. They are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.Breakfast takes place at any time from 7:00 to 9:00 in the morning. They usually have eggs, bread with butter(黄油), cheese and so on. English people drink tea or coffee at breakfast. Lunch comes at one oclock. It can be a hamburger or a three-course (三道菜) meal. Afternoon tea is between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm. Dinner begins at about half past seven. The first course is soup. The next is often meat or fish with vegetables. Then come fruits of different kinds: apples, pears, bananas and so on. But not all English people eat like that. Some of them have their dinner in the middle of the day. Their meals are breakfast, dinner, tea and supper. And all these meals are usually simple.Wish you a good time in England!Yours,Rose36.

A. on New Years Day B. at the Lantern FestivalC. on New Years Eve D. on Christmas Day (C)Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport vehicles and some other special outdoor working places has been banned(禁止)in China since January 2011.Lets look at the following advantages of banning smoking. First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but will also be good for passive(被动)smokers. When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets. If smoking is banned, spread of these diseases can be controlled. Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up. Since a smoker is prevented from smoking, he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours. When a smoker doesnt smell or see anybody around him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too. As a result, people have to give up smoking. Smoking in public places influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents. When teens see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily. Thus the number of teen smokers will increase. Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers. So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers. Looking from the economic point of view, smoking should be banned to increase work productivity(生产率).Employees(雇员)who smoke usually take breaks to smoke while working. So the number of hours they put in their work is smaller. If you see from the environment point of view, smoking should be banned. Smoking causes air pollution. If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.41._doesnt belong to a non-smoking place.A.A field B.A hospital C.A library D.A restaurant42. The second paragraph mainly wants to tell us _.A. banning smoking is good for restaurantsB. banning smoking is good for non-smokersC. banning smoking is good for spread of diseasesD. banning smoking is good for active smokers and passive smokers43. How many advantages of banning smoking are mentioned in this passage? A. Two. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.44.According to the text, the underlined word “adolescents” means _. A. men B. women C. adults D. teenagers45. Which of the following statements in NOT true? A. If smoking is banned, work productivity will increase. B. If smoking is banned, the number of teen smokers will be larger. C. If smoking is banned, it will make the environment become better. D. If smoking is banned, smokers will learn how to live without smoking.第卷 （非选择题 65分）.词汇运用（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）A）根据句子意思，从方框中选用恰当的单词或短语填空。of, am used to, rising, driest, myself, paid attention to, for, have a bad effect on, cloudy,1.

If people find your page interesting, they will come to visit it. If lots of people like your page, then you have created something of value(价值). The whole idea of a TV station is to create a place that attracts lots of people. Then the stations owner can charge companies for advertising on TV. A web page is like a small TV station. If yours becomes very popular, then you can sell ads on it. That is one form of “value”. There are other forms as well, especially for teenagers. A popular page allows you to speak to and educate others, gives you a chance to meet people, and opens doors of opportunity that you might not expect. If you want to create your own page, you have two choices . You can create a page that says, “Hi, my name is Suzy and here is a picture of Binky, my cat. My favorite bands are”That is fine, but it is not of much interest to anyone but your close friends. The other choice you have is to create a site that other people find useful. Pick something you enjoy or know a lot about and create a page about it. For example, if you like football, create the best page on the net about football. The people from all over the world will come to visit your page because you are offering something of value. 21. Whats the whole idea of a TV station?22. Is a popular page good for teenager?23. If one likes clothes, what kind of page can you create?24.Why will people from all over the world visit a web page?25.Whats the main idea of the reading?(B)This summer, the most popular tourist sight in China has to be Tibet.
