Yet I did nothing for the attackIt was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpectedI was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five timesI backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking meHad I been hurt I wouldnt have found it amusingAnd I was laughingAfter all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forwardMy attacker rushed me againHe charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vainFor a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker pausedI wasnt sure what to doAfter all, its just not everyday that one is attacked by a butterflyI stepped back to look the situation overMy attacker moved back to land on the groundThats when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlierHe had a mate and she was dyingSitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan herI could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mateHe had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mates sake （缘故）, even though she was clearly dying and I was so largeHe did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, should I have been careless enough to step on herHis courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mates safety seemed admirableI couldnt do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the poolHe had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed Since then, Ive always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.56Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path?ATo get close to a butterfly.BTo look over the bad situation.CTo escape a sudden attack.DTo avoid getting his shoes dirty.57What made the man feel funny?AMaking the attacker pause.BBeing attacked by a butterfly.CBeing stepped on by his mate.DDiscovering the energetic butterfly.58From this experience the man learned .Awhat he should do when faced with troubleBpeople should show sympathy to the weak Chow he should deal with attacksDpeople should protect butterflies59Which of the following words can best describe the butterfly?ACareless BAmusing CCourageousDAggressive.BHow Many Lies Do the Children Tell You?Mothers who feel their children don t appreciate them can add another grievance to the list: half the time, their children are lying to themA study designed to expose the truth about lying shows that undergraduates lie to their mothers in 46% of their conversationsStill, mums should feel better than total strangers, who are told lies an astonishing 77 % of the timeBella Depaulo and a team of psychologists from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, asked 77 undergraduates to keep a record of all their conversations for a week, and write down whether they lied at any timeDePaulo named lying broadly, as when you intentionally try to mislead someone, so she would catch the smallest of liesThe students told an average of two lies a dayThey said they had been studying when they had been out drinkingOne told his parents that a textbook cost $50 rather than $20 so that they would send him extra moneyFemale students constantly told their plain-looking roommates that they were prettyThey are everyday lies, says DePauloDePaulo and her colleagues conclude that people tend to tell fewer lies to those they feel closest toCollege students lied to their best friends 28% of the time but lied to acquaintances 48% of the timeIn close relationships, people were more likely to tell kind-hearted lies, designed to protect feelings, rather than self-serving liesRomantic （浪漫的） partners Ml somewhere between close friends and acquaintancesStudents lied to romantic partners about a third of the timeDePaulo thinks that unmarried lovers can expect less honesty than best friends because of the insecurity that comes with romanceMothers can take heart from one other findingThey may have been lied to, but at least their children talked to themThe students were recorded telling few lies to their fathers because they had little interaction with them60What is the meaning of the underlined word grievance in Paragraph 1?AOpinionBComplaint CBelief DDifficulty61According to the passage, college students felt closest to _ Amothers Bbest friends Cacquaintances Dromantic partners62Female students lied to their roommates to .Aget money from them Boffer them the servicesCgain more security Dmake them happy63What is the purpose of this article?ATo present a fact BTo argue an ideaCTo tell a story DTo explain a theoryCWhen English as a foreign language is taught to children at the primary and early secondary levels of education, it is taught with a general educational aim in mind that is, it is regarded as a good thing for them to learn a foreign language as a part of a broad educationThere is usually, however, no immediate and specific requirement for such children to make use of the language in any communicative situationThe purpose of learning the language is essentially delayed till the tertiary （第三的） level of education, normally at university, where, it is agreed, a knowledge of English would be helpful in their academic studiesImmediate aims of learning English are interpreted by the requirements of examinationUnavoidably, what is taught to primary and secondary level children is not a communicative knowledge of English language use, but a knowledge of how the rules of English operateThe language system is taught by means of systematic audio-lingual （听说） drill and exercise techniques based on habit formation theory of learning and structural description of EnglishThis may be an effective manner of teaching English usage, but it is less certain that an understanding of how these rules are related to language in use for communicative purposes is an automatic result of this instructionWhat the thousands of children succeed in learning in this way is what is necessary in order to pass examsWhether such exams accurately reflect the uses to which English will be put at the tertiary level is another matter altogetherAdults, on the other hand, unless they are learning a foreign language for “pleasure” at evening institutes, as a “cultural” and social experience, are generally fully aware of the use to which they intend to put itThat use is frequently associated with an academic or professional requirement; without a knowledge of the foreign language, their development in their chosen field of work could be restricted or at least unfavorably affected64According to the author, the current examination system _Aprepares students for their job developmentBdelays the purpose of general educationCaffects students English competenceDmeets students academic demands65We can learn from the passage that _ Aadults in general realize the use of foreign languagesBaudio-lingual methods are communicative approachesCchildren learn English in order to communicate with othersDteaching the rules enables kids to use the language properly66What is the main topic of the passage?AEnglish learning and examinationsBThe importance of English learningCPurposes of English language learningDEnglish learning as a part of education DWal-Mart is not just the worlds largest retailer （零售商）Its the worlds largest company, which sells in three months what number-two retailer Home Depot sells in a yearWal-Mart exercises its power for just one purpose: to bring the lowest possible prices to its customersAt Wal-Mart, that goal is never reachedThe retailer has a clear policy for suppliers: On basic products that dont change, the price Wal-Mart will pay, and will charge shoppers, must drop year after yearBut what almost no one outside the world of Wal-Mart and none of its 21,000 suppliers know is the high cost of those low pricesTo survive in the face of its pricing demands, makers of everything from bikes to jeans have had to close US plants in favor of obtaining products from abroadIndeed, the real story of Wal-Mart, the story that never gets told, is the story of the pressure the biggest retailer constantly applies to its suppliers in the name of bringing us every day low pricesThe giant retailer s low prices often come with a high costWal-Mart s pressure can crush the companies it does business with and force them to send jobs overseasAre we shopping our way straight to the unemployment line? Of course, US companies have been moving jobs offshore for decades, long before Wal-Mart was a retailing powerBut there is no question that the chain is helping accelerate the loss of American jobs to low-wage countries such as ThailandPeople ask, How can it be bad for things to come into the US cheaply? Sure, its great to have bargainsBut you can t buy anything if you re not employedThere is no question that Wal-Marts drive to squeeze out cost has benefited consumersBy now, it is accepted wisdom that Wal-Mart makes the companies it does business with more efficient and focusedWal-Mart itself is known for continuous, improvement in its ability to handle, move, and track goodsIt is legendary （传奇） for forcing its suppliers to redesign everything from their packaging to their computer systemsIt is also legendary for quite straightforwardly telling them what it will pay for their goods67How do suppliers meet the requirements of Wal-Mart?ATo sell even more goods in three monthsBTo cut down the employment rate sharplyCTo charge shoppers at a much higher priceDTo run the business in a well-organized way68Wal-Marts low price policy results in _.Amore high-paying jobsBbetter designed packagesCbigger profit of its partnersDmore jobless American workers69What can we infer from the passage? AStill more quality goods will be provided BThe food you get at Wal-Mart costs leastCThe value of Mal-Mart is over assessed DWal-Mart is a very demanding company 70Whats the best title for the passage?AThe Fortune Wal-Mart MakesBThe Wal-Mart you dont Know CThe Biggest RetailerWal-MartDThe Money Saving Tip in Wal-Mart第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。It doesnt come as a surprise to you to realize that it makes no difference what you read or study if you cant remember itYou just waste your valuable time 71 One dependable aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for readingWhy does a clerk in a store go away when your reply to her offer to help is, No, thank youIm just looking?
