Nowadays young people in the UK hardly ever go to music shops.In fact,there aren't
many music shops 36 on British high streets and small,independent music shops have almost
completely disappeared.You could be forgiven( 谅 解 ) for 37 that British youngsters are no
longer interested in music. 38 ,music is still an important part of life for most British people.In a
recent survey young people had to imagine what they would 39_if they lived on a desert island
and 90 percent of those who 40_chose music first.
The main difference between attitudes to music now and in the past is that lots of young
people would 41_the idea of paying for music nowadays."Music is free,"they say,"and you can
get it from the Internet."So illegal downloading of music is 42_according to the survey,saying
that an average teenager has 800 illegally down loaded songs on his or her MP3 player.Another
research has shown that many teenagers listen to music 43 on their computer hard drive,which
contains over 8,000 songs 44.
So,what does this mean for the bands(乐队)that make their money from the 45 of their
music?In the past bands could make some money from T shirts,CDs and posters but now they
need to be more creative now.Some of the big names in British music are 46 some interesting
ways to make money.For example,you can choose a Gorillaz lamp if you want to brighten up
your bedroom.You can 47_dry your Coldplay cups with a Supergrass branded tea towel while
listening to music.
If you are thinking of 48 your own band you have to go to your audience to make
yourself known.This means on social networking sites such as Facebook and My space where a
lot of teens can be found in the evening.It is more difficult for bands that are just starting out in
the music business to make money but easier for them to find 49.UKbands is a site devoted to
new music,where it gives bands a chance to 50_their music across the web.So dig out your guitar
and maybe you could be an Internet star.

A
What is the number one favourite pet in the UK?If you think the answer is"dogs"-you are
wrong.There are 8.6 million cats and 8.3 million dogs in Britain according to the recent
figures.But experts predict that there will be more dogs than cats next year as dogs become more
and more popular.
Dogs as accessories
We like to spend time with our pets.The Queen is famous for her corgis(柯吉犬)and is
often photographed with them.Nowadays some dog owners are more extreme-a few TV
celebrities even take their dogs to go shopping or to restaurants.Chihuahuas are especially popular
as "handbag dogs"because they are so small.
Dog holidays
People are also giving their pets holidays.Many UK hotels and holiday parks now welcome
dogs as guests.What about owners who go abroad?They can leave their dog pets at a dog hotel or
dog spa while they're away.Some even provide their canine guests with a TV.Dogs are for life
The British charity,Dogs Trust,finds homes for thousands of lost and abandoned dogs every
year.Their famous slogan "“A dog is for life and not just for Christmas"was created in the 1970s
to teach people about the responsibility for owning a dog.Dogs Trust told British people not to
give dogs as gifts or treat them like toys.
Dogs on TV
Victoria Sitwell is the host of the popular TV programme called It's Me or the Dog.In the
show Victoria helps dog owners with their pets' bad behavior.She tries to find solutions to the
problems such as a Dalmatian(达尔马提亚狗)who thinks he owns the house and won't let the
family sit on the sofa,dogs that will only eat ice cream and biscuits and even a bulldog who uses
the owner's bed as a toilet.Yuck!
Fashion for dogs
You can shop online or on the high street for the latest in dog clothes and
accessories.Specialist shops sell items such as dog boots,dog fancy dress costumes,dog coats,dog
dresses and dog pants.
51.Why does the author ask a question at the beginning of the passage?

Jenny was a bright-eyed,pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were
checking out at the grocery store,Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace priced at$2.50.How she
wanted that necklace!When she asked her mother if she would buy it for her,her mother
said,"Well,it is a pretty necklace,but it costs an awful lot of money.I'll tell you what.I'll buy you
the necklace,and when we get home we can make up a list of housework that you can do to pay
for the necklace.And don't forget that for your birthday,Grandma just might give you a whole
dollar bill,too.Okay?"Jenny agreed,and her mother bought the pearl necklace for her.Jenny worked on her housework very hard every day,and sure enough,her grandma gave
her a brand-new dollar bill for her birthday.Soon Jenny had paid off the pearls.How Jenny loved
those pearls.She wore them everywhere to kindergarten,bed and when she went out with her
mother to run errands( 跑 腿 ) 。 The only time she didn't wear them was in the shower.Her
mother had told her that they would turn her neck green!
Jenny had a very loving daddy.When Jenny went to bed,he would get up from his favorite
chair every night and read Jenny her favorite story.
One night when he finished the story,he said,"Jenny,do you love me?"
"Oh yes,Daddy,you know I love you," the little girl said.
"Well,then,give me your pearls."
" Oh!Daddy,not my pearls!" Jenny said."But you can have Rosy,my favorite
doll.Remember her?You gave her to me last year for my birthday.And you can have her tea party
outfit, too. Okay?"

one."

her?She's my favorite.Her hair is so soft, and you can play with it and braid it and everything.You
can have Ribbons if you want her,Daddy,"the little girl said to her father.
" No,that's okay,"her father said and brushed her cheek again with a kiss."God bless
you,little one.Sweet dreams."
Several days later,when Jenny's father came in to read her a story,Jenny was sitting on her
bed and her lip was trembling."Here,
Daddy,"she said,and held out her hand.She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was
inside.She let it slip into her father's hand.
With one hand her father held the plastic pearls and the other he pulled out of his pocket a
blue velvet box.Inside of the box were real,genuine,beautiful pearls.He had had them all along.He
was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap stuff so that he could give her the real thing.

C
Six months before she died, my grandmother moved into an old people's home and I visited
her there when I was in Britain.She was sitting in the living room with about 15 other residents(
居住客),mostly women,half of them asleep.The room was clean and warm,with flowers and
pictures,and the care assistants were kind and cheerful.All was silent except when the residents
needed to be helped to the bathroom.It was depressing(压抑)。Gran talked a lot about how
much she missed seeing her grandchildren,but I knew from my sister that they hated going to visit
her there,and to be frank,I couldn't wait to get away myself.
So I was interested to read a newspaper article about a new concept in old people's homes in
France.The idea is simple,but revolutionary--combining a residential home for the elderly with a
nursery school in the same building.The children and the residents eat lunch together and share
activities such as music,painting,gardening,and caring for the pets,which the residents are
encouraged to keep.In the afternoons,the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the
children,and if a child is feeling sad or tired,they can always find someone for comfort.
The advantages are great for everyone concerned.The children are happy because they get
a lot more of free afternoon,and enjoy themselves because someone has time for them.They also
learn that old people are not' different' or frightening in any way.And of course,they see illness and death and learn to accept them.The residents are happy because they feel useful and
needed.They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they
take more interest in their appearance too.And the staff( 员工)are happy because they see an
improvement in the physical and psychological health of the residents and have an army of
assistants to help with the children.Nowadays there is less and less contact(接触)between the
old and the young."There are many reasons for this,including the breakdown of the extended
family,working parents with no time to care for ageing relations,families that have moved
away,and smaller flats with no room for grandparents.But the result is the same-increasing
numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children.And
more and more old people are lonely and feel useless,along with more and more families with
young children who badly need more support.It's a major problem in many societies.
That's why intergenerational programmes,designed to bring the old and the young
together,are growing in popularity all over the world,supported by UNESCO and other local and
international organisations.There are successful examples all over the world,using young people
to teach IT skills to older people and using old people as volunteer assistants in schools,perhaps
reading with children who need extra attention.One successful scheme (方案)in London pairs
young volunteers with old people who are losing their sight.The young people help with practical
things such as writing letters, reading bank statements and helping with shopping,and the older
people can pass on their knowledge and experience to their young visitors.
But it isn't only the individuals concerned who gain from intergenerational activities.The
advantages to society are great too.If older people and the youth of today can understand and
accept each other,there will be more harmony in a community.
59.The new concept that the writer read about in the newspaper refers to
A.allowing old people to help take care of children
B.building a bridge between the old and the youth
C. encouraging children to visiting old people
D.requiring more assistants to help the old people
60.What is the major problem in society today according to the passage?
A.The breakdown of the extended family.
B.More and more old people left behind.
C.Lack of care for the old and the young.
D.Children without much care from their parents.

Britain's National Health Service will be offering a traditional Chinese acupuncture(针灸
疗法) to treat back pain.This is the first time it 61 (approve)officially.
The National Institute for Clinical Excellent,however,says there is 62 (evident)that
acupuncture may be 63_(effect)than expensive X-rays or injections,so patients who have been 64 (suffer)for over six weeks should be given a choice.As an alternative to acupuncture,patients
will be able to choose either a course either a course of spinal manipulation( 脊 椎 推 拿 ) ,
65_special exercise sessions.
In the UK,acupuncture is regarded 66 a complementary(辅助的) treatment,which is the
term given to a medical procedure_67 hasn't gone through the strict trials by which scientists
prove some treatments work.
Some are still skeptical about the effectiveness of acupuncture.Research form the US
earlier this month found that simulated(模拟的) acupuncture_68(use)toothpicks(牙签)could
be as good as using real 69 (needle).So while some are yet to be convinced,back pain sufferers
will be ho-ping that acupuncture is 70 (benefit)to their health and helps get them feeling mobile
again.
二、任务型阅读(共 10 小题,每小题 1 分,满分 10 分)
Here are a number of English learning tips to help you improve your English.Choose a few of
them to get started today!
Ask yourself weekly:What do | want to learn this week?
Asking yourself this question every week will help you stop and think for a moment about
what is most important to you.It is easy to focus only on the current unit,grammar exercise,etc.If
you take a moment to stop to make a careful plan for each week,you will notice the progress you
are making and,in turn,become more inspired by how quickly you are learning English!You will
be surprised at how this feeling of success will motivate you to learn even more English.
Quickly review important new information shortly before going to bed. Research has
shown that our brains process information that is fresh in our brains while we sleep.By
shortly(this means very quickly--just a glance at what you are working on at the moment) going
over some exercise,reading,etc. before you go to sleep,your brain will work away on this
information while you sleep!
While doing exercises and alone at home or in your room,speak English aloud.
Connect the muscles( 肌 肉 ) of your face to the information in your head.Just as
understanding the basics of tennis does not make you a great tennis player,understanding
grammar rules does not mean you can automatically speak English well.You need to practice the
act of speaking often.Speaking by yourself at home and reading the exercises you are doing will
help connect your brain to your facial muscles and improve pronunciation and make your
knowledge active.
Do five to ten minutes of listening at least four times a week. In the past,I decided I needed
to get fit and went jogging--usually three or four miles.Well,after not having done anything for
many months,those three or four miles really hurt!Needless to say,I did not go jogging for another
few months!
Learning to understand spoken English well is very similar.If you decide that you are going
to work hard and listen for two hours,chances are that you will not do extra listening exercises
any time soon. if,on the other hand,you start off slowly and listen on a regular basis(five to ten
minutes at least four times a week),it will be easier to develop the habit of listening to English.
Look for situations in which you must speak,read,and listen to English.
This is probably the most important tip.You need to use English in a"realworld"situation.Learning English in a classroom is important,but putting your English
knowledge into practice in real situations will improve your fluency in speaking English.If you do
not know of any'"real life"situation,create new ones for yourself by using the Internet to listen to
news,write English responses in forums,exchange emails in English with email pals,etc.
(71)_____ on Learning English
Setting a weekly(72)________ *By this means you will find it a great(73)________ to
see how much you have(74)______________your
English by the end of the week.
Reviewing before going to bed *While (75)_________,you still process information
in your mind.
Speaking as much as possible *The muscles of your face have(76)________with what
you have learned,for practice makes(77)________
Listening more often *Starting off slowly and listening(78)_________will
help(five to ten minutes at least four times a week rather
than once two hours a week),for one meal won't make a
fat man.
(79)_______English in real
situations
*Catching every(80)________to put what you have
learned into practice is a good idea.

M: Hello. Welcome to the program. In America, May and June are the traditional months for
graduations. A listener in China, Wang Ming, who is about to get an engineering degree, wants to
know how American college graduates find jobs. Right now, the answer is: not very easily. A
latest study on the college job market showed that employers wanted to hire 22% fewer graduates
this year than last. The study also showed that just 20% of those who looked for jobs before
graduation have found one by now. This is compared to half of students who had looked for a job
by this time two years ago. But one difference: fewer of this year’s graduates have started to
search for jobs. Engineering graduates were more likely to have started their job search already,
and to have accepted a job. This is among the best-paid professions for people with just a college
degree. On average, engineering majors expect to start at about $62,000 a year.
此段独白是一则电台广播。用于解答一位即将获得工程学位的中国大学生关于美国大学毕
业生求职就业状况的疑问。
17. 答案为 A。 此题为人物身份推断题,难度不大。根据材料中“Wang Ming, who is about
to get an engineering degree”可知 Wang Ming 是一名马上就要毕业的学生。 18. 答案为 C。 此题为有一定难度的事实细节题。根据材料中“…how American college
graduates find jobs. Right now, the answer is: not very easily.”可知美国大学生找工作也是不容
易的。正确选项使用了同义转述:“not optimistic”是“not easily”的转换表达。
19. 答案为 A。 此题为有关数字的事实细节题。根据材料中“The study also showed that just
20% of those who looked for jobs before graduation have found one by now.”可知今年只有
20%的求职者在毕业前找到了工作。三个选项都来自材料,而且分布十分紧密,很容易造
成困扰,听者需边听边快速记笔记,以分辨各数字所对应的信息。
20. 答案为 B。 此题为事实细节题,需要对原文中的有关信息进行归纳总结,略有难度。
根据材料中“Engineering graduates were more likely to have started their job search already, and
to have accepted a job. This is among the best-paid professions for people with just a college
degree. On average, engineering majors expect to start at about $62,000 a year.”可知仅拥有本科
学位的工程类毕业生就可以获得最好的行业薪酬,他们所期望的起始年薪就高达$62,000,
在前面提到的“不容易”的大背景下,能推断出容易接受工作的原因和薪资水平有关。另外
A 中的 work experience 和 C 中的 choice 均未被提及。
