At first, English (46) (base) more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers (47) (rich) the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a (48) (wide) vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America and some later to Australia. So English began to be spoken in both countries. Finally by the 19th century the language was settled and now English is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia and (49) parts of the world.BYou cannot imagine how the name of Robben Island made us afraid.

Seismologists (地震学家) are telling the public not to believe rumors (谣言) about more earthquakes.Jiang Haikun said the energy from the Wenchuan earthquake was as huge as the Tangshan earthquake in 1976, which killed more than 240,000 people. The strength of the earthquake was big and it released a huge amount of energy so that many parts of the country felt the quake. He emphasized that Beijing did not experience a separate earthquake. The quake we felt in Beijing today was not a separate earthquake. It was just the aftershocks from the Wenchuan earthquake in the afternoon. Jiang Haikun also said, “ Our center’s research shows China and its neighbors are currently (当前) in a relatively-active period for earthquakes. For example, a 7.3 magnitude (级) earthquake occurred in Japan recently. On the Chinese mainland, a 6.9 magnitude quake took place in Tibet in January, while March saw a 7.3 magnitude quake in Yutian in Xinjiang and now we have a 8.0 magnitude quake in Wenchuan. So at the moment there is a trend of earthquakes in China’s mainland and its neighboring countries.”He also urged (敦促) residents not to trust rumors they heard. He stressed no destructive earthquake near Beijing is likely to occur in the near future.71. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. The earthquake in Wenchuan is as big as the earthquake in Tangshan. B. Beijing didn’t experience a separate earthquake. C. No destructive earthquake near Beijing is likely to happen. D. The Wenchuan earthquake is very big and residents can’t believe the rumors.72. Which of the following statements is true? A. The Wenchuan earthquake killed 240,000 people. B. China and all its neighbors could feel the Wenchuan earthquake. C. An earthquake will happen in the near future in Beijing. D. China and its neighbors are now in relatively-active period for earthquakes.73. What do you know about Jiang Haikun from the passage? A. He is an officer from the government. B. He may be an expert from an earthquake research department. C. He is a reporter from Wenchuan. D. He works in a TV station.74. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Many parts could feel the earthquake. B. It is natural that some earthquakes happen in China’s mainland now. C. The rumors are wrong at that time. D. The residents are afraid of the earthquake.BComputer programmer David Jones earns $35.000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card(信用卡). Instead he has been told to wait another two years until he is 18. The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David’s firm releases(推出)two new games for the fast growing computer market each month.But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage(抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school” he said “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway,” David added. “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休)is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”75.In what way is David different from people of his age?A.He often goes out with friends B.He lives with his motherC.He has a handsome income(收入) D.He graduated with six O-levels76.What is one of the problems that David is facing now?A.He is too young to get a credit card B.He has no time to learn drivingC.He has very little spare time D.He will soon lose his job77.Why was David able to get the job in the company?A.He had done well in all his exams B.He had written some computer programsC.He was good at playing computer games D.He had learnt to use computers at school78.Why did David decide to leave school and start working?A.He received lots of job offers B.He was eager to help his motherC.He lost interest in school studies D.He wanted to earn his own livingCIt’s not easy being a teenager — nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve(解决)things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy (隐私). Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation(节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part –time job.79. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents _____________.A. how to get along with a teenager B. how to respect a teenagerC. how to understand a teenager D. how to help a teenager grow up80. What does the phrase “clam up” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. become excited B. show respect C. refuse to talk D. seek help81. The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager_________________.A. to use the phone in a sensible way B. to pay for his own telephoneC. to share the phone quickly D. to answer the phone quickly82. What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?A. Not allow him to learn driving or take drugs B. Give him advice only when necessaryC. Let him have his own telephone D. Not talk about personal things with himD Several years ago,my parents,my wife,my son and I ate at one of those restaurants where the menu is written on a blackboard.After a wonderful dinner,the waiter set the check in the middle of the table.That’s when it happened:my father did not reach for the check.Conversation continued.Finally I realized that I should pick up the check!After hundreds of restaurant meals with my parents,after a lifetime of thinking of my father as the one with dollars, it had all changed.I reached for the check,and my view of myself suddenly changed.I was an adult.I was no longer a kid.Some people mark off their lives in years;I measure mine in small events.I didn’t become a young man at a particular age,like 16,but rather when a kid who wandered in the streets called me “mister”.These events in my life are called “milestones”(里程碑).There have been other milestones.The policemen of my youth always seemed big,even huge,and of course they were older than I was.Then one day they were suddenly neither.The day came when I suddenly realized that all the football players in the game I was watching were younger than I was.They were just big kids.With that milestone gone was the dream that someday,maybe I,too,could be a football player.Without over having reached the hill, I was over it.I never thought that I would fall asleep in front of the TV set as my father did.Now it's what I do best.I never thought that I would go to the beach and not swim,yet I spent all of August at the shore and never once went into the ocean.I never thought that I would appreciate opera(歌剧),but now the combination of voice and orchestra attracts me.I never thought that I would prefer to stay home in the evenings,but now I find myself passing up parties.I used to think that people who watched birds were strange,but this summer I found myself watching them,and maybe I'll get a book on the subject.I feel a strong desire for a religious(宗教) belief that I never thought I'd want,feel close to my ancestors(祖先) long gone,and echo(回音)my father in arguments with my son.I still lose…One day I bought a house.One day—what a day!—I became a father,and not too long after that I picked up the cheek for my own father.I thought then it was milestone for me.One day, when I was a little older,I realized it was one for him too, another milestone. 83.When the young man picked up the bill and paid it, .A.he felt that his father should have paid it B.he was glad to pay instead of his fatherC.he realized he was now an adult D.he became a father with dollars84. The man marked off his life not by the passing years but by .A.comparing himself with other people B.counting the milestones of his lifeC.recalling (回忆)events of the past D.certain meaningful events85. Which of the following statements best expresses the author’s opinion?A.Now or never! B.Tomorrow is a new day.C.To save time is to lengthen life. D.Time and tide wait for no man.第二节:信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)注意:请同时涂A,B 表示E; 同时涂C,D表示F。 请阅读下列房屋的信息及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。A. Sun Garden Sun Garden is the top flat in the north of the city.
