Tomas Manning. 17“_ to the program, Tomas!” “Thanks Sue. Its a pleasure to be here.” “Perhaps you could start by telling us where the idea for the book came from?” “Well it was first suggested in the early _. Sir Hugh Beaver, the Managing director of Guinness, was out shooting birds with some friends. A bird flew away so quickly that no one was able to shoot it. Sir Hugh wondered whether this bird was the fastest bird in Europe. And it wasnt the fastest. He wondered what it was. ” “So I suppose he went to the nearest library to look for the information and he couldnt find it?” “Yeah, thats exactly what happened. And this made Sir Hugh think there must be other people in the same situation who wanted this kind of information. He thought that, like himself, people would be interested in finding facts about the records to satisfy their curiosity.” “So the idea for a book of records was born. And when did the first book come out?”“ A few years later, in 1955. So to answer your first question: the tallest person in the world is 231.7cm tall. And the oldest person is Jeanne L Calment who was born in February, 1875.” “They are also some rather strange records on their torments” “Yeah, thats right. Did you know, Sue, that the shortest time that taking”tallest welcome 1950s第二部分：英语知识运用第一节：单项填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。21.

Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.Man is now slowly polluting the whole world. Air pollution is still the most serious. Its bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.56. _, our world is becoming much smaller. A. Because of the rise in pollution B. Thanks to science development C. Because the earth is being polluted day and night D. Because the earth is blown away by the wind every year57. Hundreds of years ago, life was _ it is today. A. much easier than B. as easy as C. much harder than D. as hard as58. Pollution comes in many ways. We can even hear it. Here “it” refers to _. A. rubbish B. noise pollution C. air pollution D. water pollution59. Air pollution is still the most serious kind of pollution because _. A. it makes much noise B. it makes us angry more easily C. it makes our rivers and lakes dirty D. its bad for all living things in the world60. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. B. The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world population does. C. The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people on the earth. D. If people could go to work by bus or bike instead of car or motorbike, it would be helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2. BWhat makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipients face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most? This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father. I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate. Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dads face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift. 61. The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was _. A. doing shopping B. having a debate C. reading a message D. leaving for Wyoming62. The authors inspiration for the gift came from _. A. a photo of a flower B. a story about a kid C. a call from the mother D. a text about Christmas63. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to a poem by _. A. the father B. the author C. William Blake D. Edgar Allan Poe64. The author made the gift by _. A. searching for the poems online B. drawing the background by hand C. painting the letters in three colors D. matching the words with pictures65. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To show how to design images for gifts. B. To suggest making gifts from ones heart. C. To explain how computers help create gifts. D. To describe the gifts the author has received.第II卷（共 分）第一部分第一节 短文综合填空(共10个空：每空1分，满分10分)Yesterday, another student and I, _ 66（代表）our universitys student association, went to the Capital International Airport to meet this years international students to Beijing University.

Its one of the first words we learn as babies, yet its one of the last ones we think to use as adults. Thats unfortunate, because saying hello is more than just saying hello-it is recognition of anothers worth. How might the world change-how might we change-if we mastered this word? To find out, I spent one month saying hello to every person I met. Heres what Ive learned. 2 It can boost(促进) productivity.
