around 5 percent nothing might be able to prevent housing prices going up said one house seller in Santa Monica California It s crazy said Tim who is looking for a house near the beach In 用心 爱心 专心5 1993 I bought my first place a two bedroom flat in Venice for 70 000 My friends thought then that I was overpaying Five years later I had to move I sold it for 230 000 which was a nice profit Last year while visiting friends here I saw in the local paper that the exact same flat was for sale for 510 000 It is a seller s market Homebuyers feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking price Donna a new owner of a one bedroom flat on Venice Beach said That s what I did I told the owner that whatever anyone offers you I ll give you 20 000 more under the table so you don t have to pay your house seller any of it I was tired of negotiating with the house sellers Tim says he hopes he doesn t get that desperate Whether you decide to buy or not you still feel like you made the wrong decision If you buy you feel like you overpaid If you don t buy you want to kick yourself for passing up a great opportunity Everyone says the bubble 气泡 has to burst sometime but everyone hopes it will burst the day after they sell their house Even government officials have no idea what the future will bring All we can say is that clearly these things go in regular cycles said the state director of housing What goes up must come down But as we all know housing prices always stay up a little higher than they go down 被接受 So you can t lose over the long run Twenty years down the road your house is always worth more than you paid for it 46 If Tim had sold his flat last year he could have earned A 510 000 B 440 000 C 280 000 D 160 000 47 Donna paid another 20 000 to the

blue But in spite of this Bush wears blue ties more often than any other color WhatWhat theythey meanmean According to Sharon Haver editor of in America the feelings associated with colors overrule their political significance A guy who wants to be regarded as strong and in charge would wear red Haver says Unsurprisingly the business tycoon Donald Trump is known for wearing red ties But what about blue According to Haver Blue is a softer color Look at the sky It s peaceful and calm and trustworthy SelectingSelecting thethe rightright tietie forfor thethe rightright occasionoccasion Perfect job interview tie Perhaps no other tie wearing occasion is as important as the job interview Gilchrist the fashion expert advises playing it safe and choosing a conservative one Best choices are solids stripes or small patterns An excellent color is burgundy 深红色 or another serious color Avoid pink or yellow which suggests that the wearer lacks gravity Pattern ties Gilchrist suggests

glamorous creative jobs Date night tie When picking out the right tie for taking a girl out on a date spend more time considering color than pattern According to studies women are attracted to men

personalities and policies B Because they want to advise him how to select an appropriate tie for such a big occasion C Because they think the tie will tell if he is trustworthy as they expected when

C Why to avoid pink or yellow ties in job interviews is that they don t 用心 爱心 专心8 match the atmosphere D The more colorful the tie is the more likely you ll get the job you want C C Compared to adults children seem to be moving constantly So it s no surprise that most parents who are quizzed about their child s physical activity level describe their children as fairly active But a new study of nearly 2 000 British school children suggests that many parents overestimate the amount of physical activity their children are really getting The researchers equipped 1 892 British school children ages 9 and 10 with accelerometers that measure all physical activity during a given time period The research known as the Speedy study collected the exercise data from children at 92 schools in Norfolk England between April and July 2007 A child was regarded inactive if he or she recorded less than an hour a day of physical activity Although the majority of children studied were getting enough physical activity a sizable minority of children were not Overall 39 percent of girls and 18 percent of boys studied were getting less than an hour of physical activity each day But if you asked the parents of the inactive children to describe their child s activity level the vast majority 80 percent described their children as fairly or very physically active according to the findings published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine Interestingly the children themselves had more awareness about their lack of physical activity Overall 40 percent of children overestimated their physical activity But it wasn t the parents of overweight children who were most likely to guess wrong about physical activity levels The parents who were most out of touch about their child s physical fitness were more likely to have children who were slim Parents of girls were also more likely to overestimate physical activity The researchers noted that parents should be educated about the importance of physical activity for children even if the child is not overweight Parents of slim children appear to assume that their children are adequately active the study authors reported Increasing awareness regarding health benefits of physical activity beyond weight control might help have a correct idea of physical activity levels and encourage behavior 用心 爱心 专心9 change 54 According to the Speedy study what kind of children can be judged physically inactive A Slim children B Children with less than an hour a day of physical activity C Overweight children D Children out of touch with their parents for a long time 55 What does the writer probably mean by saying a sizable minority of children were not in Paragraph 3 A The amount of children s physical activity is far from the writer s satisfaction B Only a small number of children were not getting enough physical activity C A small number of children didn t overestimate their physical activity D The minority of children were not studied at all 56 The passage is intended to A encourage parents to fairly judge their children s physical activity levels B persuade parents to keep an eye on their children s weight C urge children to wear accelerometers during exercise D advise parents to keep in touch with their children D D Have you ever thought about what determines the way we are when we grow up Remember the TV program Seven Up It started following the lives of a group of children in 1973 We first meet them as wide eyed seven year olds and catch up with them at seven year intervals nervous 14 year olds serious 21 year olds and then grown ups Some of the stories are inspiring others sad but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way in which the children s early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives For example at seven Tony is a lively child who says he wants to become a sportsman or a taxi driver When he grows up he goes on to do both How about Niki She says I would like to find out about the moon And she goes on to become a space scientist As a child soft spoken Bruce says he wants to help poor children and ends up teaching in India But if the lives of all the children had followed this pattern the program 用心 爱心 专心10 would be far less interesting than it actually was It was the children whose childhood did not prepare them for what was to come that made the program so interesting Where did their ideas come from about what they wanted to do when they grew up Are children influenced by what their parents do by what they see on television or by what their teachers say How great is the effect of a single important event Many film directors including Steven Spielberg say that an early visit to the cinema was the turning point in their lives Dr Margaret McAllister who has done a lot of research in this area thinks that the major factors are parents friends and their wider society 57 What does the text mainly discuss A New ways to make a TV program interesting B The importance of TV programs to children C Different ways to make childhood dreams come true D The influence of childhood experience on future lives 58 What does the underlined word influenced mean in the last paragraph A Impressed B Improved C Affected D Attracted 59 What are the examples in Paragraph 2 meant to show A Many people s childhood hopes are related to their future jobs B There are many poor children in India who need help C Children have different dreams about their future D A lot of people are very sad in their childhood 60 Spielberg s story is meant to show that A going to a movie at an early age helps a child learn about society B a single childhood event may decide what one does as a grown up C parents and friends can help a child grow up properly D films have more influence on a child than teachers do 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 2 分 满分 10 分 A Goods for auction 拍卖 sales B Definition of bidding C Way to sell more goods by auction D Auction sales in history E
