And classical music, it seems, may be fine rain for restaurants. The music of Mozart, Bach and Beethoven played in restaurants makes diners feel richer and encourages them to spend money, according to research made by the University of Leicester in central England. "When you hear a piece of music, it activates all types of knowledge," said Adrian North, a senior lecturer in psychology at a university who carried out tests in a restaurant near Leicester over a period of three weeks. "If you hear classical music, it gives you the feeling of wealth and it makes you feel a bit noble. In a restaurant, this has the effect of making you spend a bit more money." Researchers found that classical music, often connected with wealth, was the most successful in encouraging people to pay cash, with diners spending more than 24 pounds a head. But when the music was Britney Spears', diners spent less than 22 pounds a head, they found. With no background music, spending fell to around 21 pounds. “Where people were really spending the money was on the luxurious things , such as desserts and coffees," said James Davis, owner of Softleys restaurant in Market Bosworth, where the research was carried out. He also said, "I think this research will certainly affect what we will play in the future." 39. How did people feel while listening to classical music? A. They only feel noble. B. They feel they are luxurious. C. They feel that they are a little noble and wealthy. D. They have the feeling that money is less important. 40. Which music has the most obvious effect on people’s spending? A. Britney Spears' B. Classical music C. Pop music. D. Not mentioned in the passage. 41. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. People like to have desserts and coffees. B. The desserts and coffees are very expensive. C. People spend money in enjoying music in restaurants. D. Having desserts and coffees makes people spend more money. 42. It can be inferred from the passage that_________. A. Softleys might accept the idea B. most people don't believe the idea C. restaurants will never play Britney Spears' music D. every restaurant will play classical music in the future43. What is the best title of the passage? A. Classical music makes diners spend more money. B. Music and restaurants. C. Diners love music. D. Music is the food of love. B How do you get a man to do his share of the housework? If you are like most women, you’ve faced this question the hard way. A man will enjoy a clean, orderly house, but he usually won’t make the effort to clean or organise it. This doesn't mean that a woman has to do all the housework; she may have to manage many of the household duties, and request her partner’s participation(参与). A woman can often say that men and women should take equal responsibility(责任) for housework. Very few men are raised to be fully responsible for housework, and many men look on housework as women’s work. On the other hand, most men will readily work around the yard, make repairs and complete projects on weekends or evenings, and it’s important that you give your man appreciation(欣赏) for those things, too. Most men will take on a little housework around the house if asked politely. They are even more likely to do housework if they can choose what they want to do, and do it without being monitored(监视). Here’s the key: men want to feel that they are doing housework either because they want to do a task, or because they simply want to please their women. Men are much less likely to take on household tasks they consider uninteresting and unimportant. In other words, men are likely to do a household task just for the good of the house. 44. The passage is mainly about how to _____. A. get men to do some housework B. get men to serve their families C. praise men’ housework D. make men do all the housework 45. According to the passage, a man_____. A. is willing to do housework B. likes to be told to do housework C. is taught to be responsible for housework from childhood D. likes a clean house but doesn’t make efforts to clean it 46. In order to get men to do some housework, women should often_____. A. order them to do their share B. ask them to do some housework politely C. blame men’s laziness D. monitor men’s work 47. According to the passage, the underlined sentence in the last paragraph means that men won’t _____. A. work without any payment B. do unimportant household tasks C. do housework without women’s praise D. please their wives 48. According to the passage, which of the following would a husband most probably like to do? A. Cleaning the table. B. Doing some washing. C. Painting the fence. D. Asking his wife to work on the yard. C. Most people consider skydiving (高空跳伞) a product of the 20th century, but its history actually goes further back than that. The Chinese attempted to parachute (跳伞) in the 10th century, a thousand years before we did. The Chinese did what we would today call base diving; that is, they jumped off a place that would allow them to float from a height to the ground. The first person to attempt to parachute was a Frenchman named Jacques Garnerin. He jumped from his hot-air balloon at the end of the 18th century and did tricks on the way down and stupefied the crowds by landing safely on the ground. At the end of the 19th century, Kathie Paulus, a brave German woman, became famous for her skydiving skills. Once the airplane was invented, skydiving took on a whole new form. The airplane made it possible to dive from greater heights at greater speeds, allowing for more range in the movements in the air. A woman named Tiny Broadwick became the first woman to jump from a plane in 1913 and dive free fall in 1914. Skydiving was not called skydiving until the middle of the 1950s, when Ronald Young invented the word. It had been called parachuting before this and was mainly used by the military to land troops in inland locations, or for pilots to jump out of their planes when necessary. Once World War I was over, parachuting became a sport, which we now call skydiving. After World War II, this activity became more a hobby than a military action. Soldiers were trained in parachuting and enjoyed the thrill so much that they continued on for fun. From this, teams and competitions were formed. Skydiving schools appeared in the late 1950s and now it is a recognized extreme sport enjoyed by many. 49. The underlined word “stupefied” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”. A. disappointed B. encouraged C. surprised D. attacked 50. Who was the first woman to jump from a plane? A. Jacques Garnerin. B. Kathie Paulus. C. Tiny Broadwick. D. Ronald Young. 51. Which of the following is TRUE? A. The Chinese attempted different skydiving skills in the 10th century. B. Skydiving became popular after the airplane was invented. C. The word skydiving was first used in a military action. D. There were no skydiving schools until the late 1950s. 52. What would be the best title for this text? A. The history of skydiving B. The popularity of skydiving C. What is skydiving? D. Why is skydiving an extreme sport? 第 II 卷（共 40 分） 第四部分 写作（共三节，满分 40 分） 第一节 选词填空 （共 10 体题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） advance relief informal hesitate despite imagine accompany direction collection encourage 53.
