Soon they began talking to each other, and the man said to her, Do you have a family? Yes, I have one son, the woman answered. Oh, really? said the man. Does he smoke? No, hes never touched a cigarette, the woman replied. Thats good, the man continued. I dont smoke either. Tobacco is very bad to ones health. And does your son drink wine? Oh, no, the woman answered at once. Hes never drunk a drop of it. Then I congratulate you, maam, the man said. And does he ever come home late at night? No, never, his neighbor answered. He goes to bed immediately after dinner every night. Well, the man said, hes a wise young man. How old is he? Hes six months old today. But he will grow up to be a gentleman, the woman replied proudly.1、The man and the woman are talking about the womans son. 答案 所选答案： 对 问题 12 得 2 分，满分 2 分2、The woman thinks her son will be a gentleman. 答案 所选答案： 对 问题 13 得 2 分，满分 2 分3、The conversation took place on a train. 答案 所选答案： 对 问题 14 得 2 分，满分 2 分4、The word disappointed probably best describes the mans feeling at the end of the conversation. 答案 所选答案： 错 问题 15 得 2 分，满分 2 分5、The woman is so proud of her son that she does not really understand what the mans questions mean. 答案 所选答案： 错 问题 16 得 2 分，满分 2 分Passage 2By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others-they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nations consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us-an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星) , who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? Thats hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death-such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.

People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of peoples work and everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life; they use them in their sports, too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years ago, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a persons character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.(1)、According to this passage we know that people began to play about one hundred years ago.答案 所选答案： 错 问题 22 得 2 分，满分 2 分(2)、The writer didnt tell us in this passage that basketball was invented in America.答案 所选答案： 对 问题 23 得 2 分，满分 2 分(3)、People all over the world enjoy sports because sports are interesting. 答案 所选答案： 错 问题 24 得 2 分，满分 2 分(4)、From this passage we can see that according to the author sports and games are significant to our life in many respects.答案 所选答案： 对 问题 25 得 2 分，满分 2 分 (5)、The writers attitude towards sports is positive.答案 所选答案： 对 问题 26 得 2 分，满分 2 分Passage 4We use both words and gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that these words and gestures can be understood in different ways.It is true that a smile means the same thing in any language. So does laughter or crying. There are also a number of striking similarities in the way different animals show the same feelings. Dogs, tigers and humans, for example, often show their teeth when they are angry. This is probably because they are born with those behavior patterns. Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In both Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like “he went pale and began to tremble” suggests that the man is either very afraid or he has just got a very big shock.However, “he opened his eyes wide” is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surprise. In Chinese “surprise” can be described in a phrase like they stretched out their tongues! Sticking out your tongue in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislike.Even in the same culture, people differ in ability to understand and express feelings. Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on peoples faces. Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do.16According to the passage, _.答案 所选答案： Cpeople may interpret gestures and words in various ways. 问题 27 得 2 分，满分 2 分17By using the example of dogs, tigers and humans, the author intends to illustrate _.答案 所选答案： Chumans and animals share something in common in expressing their feelings. 问题 28 得 2 分，满分 2 分18We can learn from Paragraph 3, misunderstanding of facial expressions may occur among those who differ in _. 答案 所选答案： Acultural background 问题 29 得 2 分，满分 2 分19The word “insulting” in the third paragraph can best be replaced by _.答案 所选答案： Aimpolite 问题 30 得 2 分，满分 2 分20The best title for this passage may be _. 答案 所选答案： DWords, Gestures and Feelings 问题 31 得 2 分，满分 2 分第三部分:词汇与结构（每小题2分，满分20分）此部分共有5个未完成的句子，针对每个句子中未完成的部分有4个选项，请从A.B.C.D四个选项中选出正确选项。 1Everybody was touched _ words after they heard her moving story.答案 所选答案： Abeyond 问题 32 得 2 分，满分 2 分2Where can I _ dollars for pounds? 答案 所选答案： Dexchange 问题 33 得 2 分，满分 2 分3._ yesterday, I would have asked him not to do that.答案 所选答案： AIf he had come 问题 34 得 2 分，满分 2 分4Mother doesnt know _ the hammer after he had used it.答案 所选答案： Cwhere her son put 问题 35 得 2 分，满分 2 分5.
