A I had to knock on the taxi to get his attention Finally the driver a man about 60 looked up from behind the wheel and apologized I m sorry but I was reading a letter He sounded as if he had a cold or a cough Since I was in no hurry I told him to finish his letter He shook his head explaining that he had already read it several times and almost knew it by heart Curious I asked whether it was from a child or maybe a grandchild This isn t family he replied though he might just as well have been a regular member of the family Old Ed and I grew up together They were always friends But since he moved away from the neighborhood 30 years ago it d generally just been postcards at Christmas time between them A couple of weeks ago Ed died I should have kept in touch He repeated this more to himself than to me To comfort him I said sometimes we just didn t seem to find the time But we used to find the time he said Take a look He handed the letter over to me The first sentence I ve been meaning to write for some time but I ve always delayed it reminded me of myself It went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together When I read the part where it said Your friendship really means a lot to me more than I can say because I m not good at saying things like that I found myself nodding in agreement We had gone several kilometers and were almost at my hotel so I read the last paragraph So I thought you d like to know that I was thinking of you And it was ended with Your Old Friend Tom I thought your friend s name was Ed I said I m Tom he explained It s a letter I wrote to Ed before I knew he d died I never put it in the mailbox I guess I should have written it sooner His face was pale as he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief When I got to my hotel room I didn t unpack right away I had to write a letter and post it 全国特级教师网 7 56 Who wrote the letter A Tom B Old Ed C The author D The driver s grandchild 57 It can be inferred from the passage that the driver regretted A missing Ed s funeral B moving away from his neighborhood C forgetting to send Ed Christmas cards D not being able to keep in touch with Ed 58 From Paragraph 4 we learn that the author A often fails to write to his friends B has no intention to write to his friends C had many great moments with his friends D was good at expressing his feelings to friends 59 What message does the passage probably try to convey A Comfort your friends when they are feeling down B Life is unpredictable so live each day as if it were your last C Remember to always mail your letters after expressing your words D Always make time to value and experience your lasting friendships B Lights Out at Bedtime There are plenty of good reasons to power up a personal desktop or laptop computer in the evening writing e mails chatting on social networks or making purchases over the Internet for instance But various studies indicate that people who stare at a PC s bright monitor shortly before going to bed probably sleep less soundly than they would otherwise because the light seriously affects their natural wake sleep cycle They haven t proved it though says Dieter Kunz the team s director at Charite s Psychiatric Clinic in St Hedwig s Hospital in Berlin Similarly exposure to just 10 minutes of normal bathroom lighting is enough to free the sleep hormone melatonin which regulates people s natural wake sleep cycle and makes them sleepy at nightfall Ten years ago a team of British and American researchers detected a photo pigment 光敏色素 in the human eye that signals to the body whether it is day or night summer or winter The photo pigment is especially sensitive to blue light The blue light more or less tells the body It s daytime be awake Kunz says Monitors have a mostly cold white light content and scientists suspect the photo pigment may react similarly to it So the longer people look into the bright light the more awake they become and then sleep poorly 全国特级教师网 8 A lot of people have difficulty switching off in the evening About half of the women in Germany and a quarter of the men sleep poorly Environmental factors are only one of the possible causes Job stress as well as personal and health concerns are also the main reasons for their sleep problems In addition electronic objects standby lights and indicator lamps can be annoying in the dark and affect sleep Sound scientific evidence is still lacking on this matter Kunz notes According to Kunz those who cannot go without their computer in the evening should turn down the blue content if possible and lower the brightness somewhat But nobody does that because after all you want to concentrate while working at the computer and the light helps the brain 60 The passage is mainly about A natural wake up cycles B the effect of light on sleep C personal and health concerns D functions of computer monitors 61 The underlined word which in Paragraph 2 refers to A normal bathroom lighting B 10 minute exposure to lighting C the release process of a chemical D a chemical affecting one s sleep cycle 62 We can learn from the passage that A the blue light has a calming effect B the photo pigment tells people day or night C women in Germany use computers more often than men D it has been proved that standby lights affect people s sleep C The Loss of Innocence Innocence is such a precious gift It s explained as freedom from guilt or wrong doing Just imagine never having to worry about anything and having a guilt free mind Some people wish to save this kind of innocence from being lost from childhood to adulthood What would the world be like if innocence were never lost One way it would benefit humanity is the lack of hatred 仇恨 among the world During youth there may be an occasional argument even a little physical fight but nothing like firing a handgun at a fellow human being And children are blind towards the racial differences 全国特级教师网 9 of others A kid will hang out with any other kid It is the lack of innocence and the ignorance we learn from adults that influence children otherwise Another benefit is the constant desire for fun and adventure With very little if any time at all for fun the adventurous mind is lost in time with the responsibilities placed upon adults If innocence were kept alive these ambitions would never depart from our lives However other people actually hate the idea of innocence lasting for ever They feel that the lack of organization and mental power of those with innocence would cause extremely destructive consequences to society in general A large number of individuals would never have the urge to learn work and act upon the necessary needs for humanity to survive Without a proper education which is usually provided by those who no longer live in a world of innocence people would not have the desire to succeed get a good job in life or provide income for their families which would hurt the lives of children The lack of a good education and career would also harm the economy As long as innocence is kept alive no one would be terribly angered at the lack of effort people put out in the workplace resulting in a strong decline in production and quality of needed goods Maybe it is wrong in wanting to save innocence It sure is a nice thought though Perhaps innocence was meant to be lost It was god s will to make things the way they are and there is a good purpose for everything All that remains to be said about innocence is to enjoy it while it lasts 63 The author believes that the loss of innocence in adulthood should be A avoidedB condemnedC accepted D encouraged 64 Lifelong innocence would be beneficial to society in that A proper education would be provided B there would be no racial discrimination C more happy families would be guaranteed D people would realize their childhood dreams 65 According to the author people with innocence can hurt the economy with their lack of A motivational will B mental ability C adventurous ambitions D needed goods 66 Which of the following shows the structure of the passage 全国特级教师网 10 CP Central Point P Point Sp Sub point 次要点 C Conclusion D Willie Sutton a once celebrated American criminal was partly famous for saying he robbed banks because that s where the money is Actually museums are where the money is In a single gallery there can be paintings worth more taken together than a whole fleet of jets 机队 And while banks can hide their money in basements museums have to put their valuables in plain sight Nothing could be worse than the thought of a painting as important as The Scream Edvard Munch s impressive image of a man screaming against the backdrop of a blood red sky disappearing into a criminal underworld that doesn t care much about careful treatment of art works Art theft is a vast problem around the world As many as 10 000 precious items of all kinds disappear each year And for smaller museums in particular it may not be a problem they can afford to solve The money for insurance on very famous pictures would be budget destroyers even for the largest museums Although large museums have had their share of embarrassing robberies the greatest problem is small institutions Neither can afford heavy security Large museums attach alarms to their most valuable paintings but a modest alarm system can cost 500 000 or more Some museums are looking into tracking equipment that would allow them to follow stolen items once they leave the museums But conservators are concerned that if they have to insert something it might damage the object Meanwhile smaller museums can barely afford enough guards relying instead on elderly staff Thieves sometimes try using artworks as money for other underworld deals The planners of the 1986 robbery of Russborough House near Dublin who stole 18 paintings tried in vain to trade them for Irish Republican Army members held in British prison Others demand a ransom 赎金 from the museum that owns the pictures Ten years ago thieves in Frankfurt Germany made off with two 全国特级教师网 11 major works by J M W Turner from the Tate Gallery in London The paintings worth more than 80 million were recovered in 2002 after the Tate paid more than 5 million to people having information about the paintings Though ransom is illegal in Britain money for looking into a case is not provided that police agree the source of the information is unconnected to the crime All the same where information money ends and ransom begins is often a gray area 67 In the first paragraph the author introduced the topic by A analysing a problem B supporting an assumption C making a comparison D explaining a phenomenon 68 From Paragraph 2 we can learn that A artists are beginning to fight against robberies B smaller museums may be able to handle robberies C art criminals are aware of the importance of art conservation D most museums can not afford insurance on all valuable items 69 It can be inferred from the last paragraph that in Britain A paintings can be used as money in foreign trade B the current law can be taken advantage of for ransom C owne
