Our company was organized only two years ago, but we are one of the largest boat companies in California. As you know, your son has bought a boat from us recently, and I think you know how pleased be is with our product. Also, John Webb, one of your sons friends, has bought a boat from us and, we understand, is very happy with his boat. We are always happy to know that our customers are satisfied. We are writing to you now because, as you know, your son has decided to buy a larger boat, and we need your signature on the loan (贷款) papers. The loan application has already been signed by Danny. As you will see, there is one form to fill out, and there are three contracts to sign. Dannys 26-foot boat was returned to our San Pedro Dock yesterday, and we are pleased to say that the new 36-foot “Challenger” will be delivered in two weeks from today. It is being inspected by our manager right now. The auto-pilot (自动领航仪) has already been installed by our mechanic. It looks as though everything will be ready in time for delivery. All we need are the signed contracts from you.Thank you.Tony Valention51. The main aim of the letter Tony wrote to Mr. Perkins is to _.A. tell him to sign the contractsB. thank him for buying a new boatC. tell about something of his companyD. ask him to pay for his boat right away52. The underlined word “contracts” means _.A. application forms from the buyersB. letters sent by the sellersC. formal agreements having the force of lawD. designs of a new product53. From the passage we can see that the boat company _.A. isnt an old oneB. is a world-famous oneC. is developing slowlyD. has to advise customers to buy its boats(B)There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I dont mean while youre unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.The 5 % mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in ones own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.And whats more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.Dont guess! Look it up!54. It is certain that the best way to learn new words is _.A. to learn them by oneselfB. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequentlyC. to guess them from the contextD. to get more separate meanings of each word55. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to _.A. the 30,000 words B. English teachersC. misunderstood wordsD. frequently used words56. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.57. It can be inferred that _.A. when somebody is conscious, he or she usually cant learn new words by heartB. we must use the words as often as possible in order to master themC. its the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the contextD. only dictionaries can help us learn language well(C)My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece.What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys.As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested.Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自动地).My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music.When l came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DONT MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!Needless to say, 1 obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “page-turning” feat (技艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.58. The author was nervous before the performance because _.A. his or her mother and father werent presentB. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stageC. he or she hadnt mastered the entire pieceD. he or she had never performed in public before59.

The author _.A. didnt make any mistake in the performanceB. felt better at the beginning of the performanceC. paid all attention to nothing but his / her performanceD. lost his / her concentration sometimes during the performance61. What did the author feel about his / her performance?A. He / She thought it was comfortable and successful.B. He / She thought it was very difficult but successful.C. He / She thought he / she had never made a mistake during the performance.D. He / She thought he / she played through the piece carefully but light-heartedly.(D)People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles to the air.The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy for traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the live of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.62.

In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contribute to _.A. heart disease B. lung diseases C. loss of clear vision D. serious headache(E)Did you know that vegetables can grow in the climates they are not used to? Cool climate vegetables like asparagus (芦笋) are now able to be grown in places as hot as Hawaii. In Hawaii, marine (海的)engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables that they are living in cooler climates. In that way they grow faster and taste better. What these engineers have been using is very simply cold sea water. How did they use it? They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through them cools the earth. This causes plant growth and enables gardeners in tropical climates (热带气候) to grow crops from cooler climates. Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air and they make the air “wet” and thus water the gardens. What especially makes people happy
