A
Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room? In 2040 it will not matter. They
will turn themselves off and on again when you return. You will choose the temperature for each room, the
lighting and the humidity(湿度). A sensor will detect the presence of a human (and, with luck, ignore the dog!)
and turn the systems on, and when the humans leave it will turn them off again.
The sensors will work through the central home computer, and they will do much more than just turn the fires
and lights on and off for you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, plugs or switches, isolate them so that
they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect fire and if you are out of the
house, the computer will call the fire brigade. It will also call the police if the sensors detect an intruder. This will
not be too difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic. You will open them using your
personal card—the one you use for shopping—may be using a number known only to you.
It will be impossible to lose the key, and a house-breaker will have to tamper with the lock or with a window.
It is not very difficult to make such tampering send a signal to the computer.
The computer will be an entertainer, and most of your entertainment will come right into your home. It does
now, of course, but by 2040 “entertainment” will mean much more. For one thing, you will be able to take part
actively, rather than just watching.
1.The author intends to tell us that in 2040 _______.
A. we will live without lights and heaters B.we will use more lights and heaters

2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A .The sensor is multi-functional.
B. Without a computer, the sensor cannot do much.
C. The sensor will detect fire and make an emergency call.
D. You can be taken for an intruder if you tamper with the lock or with a window.
3.According to the author, in 2040, new technology will _________.
A.free us from the keys we use today B. turn everything into sensors
C. make the locks out of date D. get rid of all crimes
4.Thanks to computers, in 2040 people will _______.
A. have no entertainment outside B. replace TV with computers
C. be controlled by computers D. have more fun at home

B
The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of September 2, 1666. In four days it destroyed
more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred
thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.
The first started on Sunday morning in the houses of the King’s baker in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his
wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery
into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
By eight o’clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning
along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St. Paul’s
and the Guildhall among them.
Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor
people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.
The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of
the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.
After the fire, Christopher Wten, the architect, wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone.
In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them is the new St. Paul’s.
The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of
the past.
6. The fire began in _____.
A. a hotel B. the palace C. Pudding Lane D. Thames Street
7. The underlined word “family” in the second paragraph means _____.
A. home B. children C. wife and husband D. wife and children
8. It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that _____.
A. some people lost their lives B. the birds in the sky were killed by the fire
C. many famous buildings were destroyed D. the King’s bakery was burned down
9. Why did the writer cite(引用) Samuel Pepys?
A. Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire. B. Because Pepys also wrote about the fire.
C. To show that poor people suffered most. D. To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire.
10. How was the fire put out according to the text?
A. The King and his soldiers came to help.
B. All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed.
C. People managed to get enough water from the river.
D. Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.
C
Have you ever found yourself in this situation: You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child — a
bit of nostalgia (怀旧) or “blast from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words5
come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a
foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the
most difficult languages.
Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20. Then
they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group
simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third
group to sing the words.
All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series
of language tests to see what they remembered.
Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the
language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the
tests were over, the singers came out on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them
showed a higher overall performance. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two
times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them.
Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to
remember things when they are contained in a catchy or memorable tune.
Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages. On the University of
Edinburgh’s website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental evidence that a
listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in
this area.”
11. The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to ________.
A. recall the past B. amuse the readers C. introduce the topic D. compare the past with the present
12. According to the passage which language doesn’t share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages?
A. Hungarian B. Spanish C. Italian D. English
13. From the last two paragraphs, we can conclude that ________.
A. singing is the best way to learn a foreign language
B. brain probably works best when foreign language learners sing the words
C. a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner
D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree with each other
14. What’s correct about the study undertaken by the researchers at the University of Edinburgh?
A. Altogether twenty adults were tested in the study.
B. People in the 3rd group performed as well as the other 2 groups.
C. People in the 2nd group were asked to speak the words to a beat.
D. In the study 60 adults were divided into 3 groups according to abilities.
15. In which situation can the finding of the research be applied?
A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.
B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.
C. A student is going to learn a new English song.
D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.
V. 阅读表达 (每小题 2 分; 满分 10 分)
I stood at the edge of the cliff. The wind stung my eyes, cutting into my skin. Dark-feathered birds circled the
air, swooping (俯冲) low over the ocean every now and then to catch their dinner. Hundreds of feet below, the deep
ocean beat against the rough sandy shore. I took a deep breath, filling my lungs with excitement — and at the
same time, fear.6
Behind me, I heard the rest of the crew start to mutter. I was here for the shooting of a movie as I was one of
the lead actors in the film Dangerous Things, and this scene was right in the middle of the climax (故事的高潮). It
was vital that this went right.
The director had talked to me about getting a stunt double (替身演员), but I’d persuaded him that I could
handle the dive. I’d taken a diving course a few years ago, and I’d been taking swimming lessons since I was five
years old. I had been pretty confident that I could do this — up till now.
Someone called out, “Ceria, you don’t have to do this! Are you sure you want to dive?” It was one of the
producers, Callie Evans. I knew I couldn’t turn back now. I couldn’t bear to see the disappointed look on the
director’s face when he was told that I couldn’t do it.
At that moment, all my fears and worries broke free. The expectation of adventure and victory seemed to
move all the hesitation. I swooped downwards. The air on either side of me cut into my extended arms. I knew
that this wonderful feeling of flight would only last a few seconds, yet time seemed to slow down so I could hear
the thrilled whoops of my crew and a round of applause that seemed to echo in my pounding ears.
