Martin was returning to work in his London office after spending two weeks with his brother in New York. He was coming back with a heavy heart. It was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday; it was not just that he invariably suffered badly from jet lag(时差); it was that Monday mornings always began with a team meeting and，over the months，he had grown to hate them.
Martin was aware that colleagues approached these meetings with hidden agenda（会议议程）; they indulged in (沉溺于)game playing; and he knew that people were not being honest and open. The meetings themselves were bad enough—there was all the moaning afterwards at the meeting like“I could have improved on that idea，but I wasn't going to say”.
As this morning's meeting began，Martin prepared himself for the usual dullness and boredom. But，as the meeting progressed，he became aware of a strange background noise. At first，he thought that he was still hearing the engine noise from the aircraft that had brought him back to London. But，as he concentrated on the noise，it became a little clearer.
He realized，to his amazement，that he could actually hear what they were thinking at the same time as they were speaking. What surprised him，even more than the acquisition(获得)of this strange power，was that he discovered that what people were
saying was not really what they were thinking. They were not making clear their reservations. They were not supporting views which they thought might be popular. They were not contributing their new insights. They were not volunteering their new ideas.
Martin found it impossible not to respond to his new knowledge. So he started to make gentle interventions，based more on what he could hear his colleagues thinking than on what he could hear them saying.“So，John，are you really saying...” “Susan，do you really think that?” “Tom，have you got an idea on how we could take this forward?” They looked at him，puzzled. In truth，he felt rather proud of his newly-acquired talent.
As the meeting progressed，it was clear to him that each member of the meeting was learning how to hear the thoughts of the others. The game playing started to fall away; people started to speak more directly; views became better understood; the atmosphere became more open and trusting.
The meeting ended. As people left the room，Martin found that he could still hear what they were thinking. “That was the best meeting we've ever had.” “All meetings should be like that.” “In future，I'm going to say what I think”.
41. It is known from the first paragraph that Martin ______.
A. just came back from his business trip in New York
B. was found to suffer from a serious heart disease during the trip
C. had a good time during his fortnight's stay in New York
D. didn't like his work in his London office
42. Why did Martin hate his company's team meeting?
A. Because it had to be held every Monday morning.
B. Because he was tired of hosting such a meeting.
C. Because he couldn't control the meeting that was out of order.
D. Because the meeting atmosphere wasn't open and trusting.
43. The underlined part “his newly-acquired talent” in Paragraph 5 means that he could _____.
A. still hear the engine noise of the plane though he was back
B. clearly hear what the members of the meeting were saying
C. actually control the thoughts of the members of the meeting
D. express what the meeting members were thinking based on their words and
their thoughts
44. What do we know about this Monday morning's meeting from the passage?
A. Martin made people say what they were thinking immediately the meeting
began.
B. Martin was angry at the dullness of the meeting at the beginning of the
meeting all the time.
C. Martin led people to express their real thoughts with the meeting progressing.
D. Many members of the meeting played games and told lies at the meeting all
the time.
45. It is inferred from the last two paragraphs that towards the end of the meeting Martin would hear such words as “______”.
A. I was thinking of making a suggestion—but I couldn't be bothered
B. I have got an idea on how we could take this forward. I think we should...
C. The usual people say the usual things，so I have no other new ideas
D. I could have improved on that idea，but I wasn't going to say

As the pace of life continues to increase , we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.
Stress is an natural part of everyday lift and there is no way to avoid it. In fact , it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be .A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can bear depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "fight" or "flight" and in more primitive days the choice made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress , that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives(it would be unwise to do so even if we could),we need to find ways to deal with it.
46. People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_____.
A. they do not know how to enjoy themselves
B. they do not believe that relaxation is important for health
C. they are travelling fast all the time
D. they are becoming busier with their work
47. According to the writer , the most important character for a good manager is his
_______.
A. not fearing stress
B. knowing the art of relaxation
C. high sense of responsibility
D. having control over performance
48. Which of the following statements is true?
A. We can find some ways to avoid stress.
B. Stress is always harmful to people.
C. It is easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.
D. Different people can stand different amounts of stress.
49. In Paragraph 3, "such a reaction" refers to_______.
A. "making a choice between 'flight' or 'fight'"
B. "reaction to stress both chemically and physically"
C. "responding to crises quickly"
D. "losing heart at the signs difficulties"
50. In the last sentence of the passage, "do so " refers to ______.
A. "expose ourselves to stress"
B. "find ways to deal with stress"
C. "remove stress from our lives"
D. "established links between diseases and stress"
D
Believe it or not, optical illusion(错觉) can cut highway crashes.
Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. But stripes, called chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.
Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan’s success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.
Excessive (too great) speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards (danger) are the greatest curves (曲线) , exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.
Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially(最初) cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns
to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.
Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.
51. The passage mainly discusses ________.
A. a new way of highway speed control
B. a new pattern for painting highways
C. a new way of training drivers
D. a new type of optical illusion
52. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that ________.
A. they should avoid speed-related hazards
B. they are driving in the wrong lane
C. they should slow down their speed
D. they are coming near to the speed limit
53. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former _____.
A. can keep drivers awake B. can cut road accidents in half
C. will look more attractive D. will have a longer effect on drivers
54. The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ______.
A. try out the Japanese method in certain areas
B. change the road signs across the country
C. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevrons
D. repeat the Japanese road patterns
55. What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?
A. They are suitable only on broad roads.
B. They are falling out of use in the United States.
C. They are ignored in a long period of time.
D. They cannot be used successfully to traffic circles.

第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
She had to pack up her bedroom in Virgina Beach, where she lived with her
mother, two sisters and brother. She had to say goodbye to her two dogs, who used to sleep in her bed, and to the beach, where she loved to ride waves on her boogie board.
But it was time to take the leap, however, heartbreaking and awkward it would be. Even at 14, Douglas knew that.
So off she went about 1,200 miles to West Des Moines, Lowa, to train with a coach from China and live with a white family she had never been met. When she arrived, Douglas thought that she must be the only black person in the state. When she woke up, she always said, “This isn’t my bed set. Where am I ?”
Liang Chow, who had coached the Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, transformed Douglas into one of the best gymnasts in the world, helping her skyrocket from an average member of the national team to the top of the sport. And a couple with four young daughters became her second family, nurturing her in Iown while her real family supported her from afar.
That move also was important in Douglas’s making history. By winning the Olympic all-round title, she became the first black woman to do so. She also became the fourth American woman to win the all-round, following Mary Lou Retton in 1984, Carly Patternson in 2004 and Nastia Liukin in 2008.
Douglas won, scoring 62.232 points, and led the competition from beginning to end. Viktoria Komova, who sobbed into her coach’s chest when she learned she had lost, won the silver, with 61.973 points. Aliya Mustafina, the 2010 world all-round champion, won the bronze with 59.566 points. The other American in the competition, Aly Raisman finished fourth after losing a tiebreaker(决胜局) to Mustafina.
Douglas said she had felt confident all along that she would win. “It was just an amazing feeling,” she said, giggling(咯咯笑). “I was just like, believe, don’t fear, believe.” After sacrificing(牺牲) so much, she had no other choice but to push forward, she said.
56. Why did Douglas leave her home at 14? (no more than 10 words)
57. How did she feel when Douglas first arrived at the new home?
(no more than 5 words)
58. What does the underlined word “skyrocket” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?(no more than 3 words)
59. Is Douglas the first American woman who won all-round? Why do you think so?
(no more than 15 words)
60. What do you think of Douglas from the story? Give your reasons.
(no more than 20 words)

Mobile phones bring us a lot of convenience. However, as is shown in a survey of social practice in summer vacation, an increasing number of people use mobile phones in improper situations, such as driving cars, crossing the roads or attending conferences. Such inappropriate behavior is likely to bring bad consequences. On one hand, using mobile phones in this way may cause terrible accidents, which is really dangerous. On the other hand, talking loudly on the phone in public places is far from being polite.
Personally, I think we shouldn’t use mobile phones where attention or silence is needed, for instance, in libraries, hospitals, or in a plane. Besides, relevant laws are supposed to be passed in order to guide people’s use of cell phones so that they will acquire good habits in public. Only when everybody has the awareness of the negative impacts of improper use of phones can we create a more civilized society.
