Our purpose is to fit them for life.In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degree;they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor; we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our townsIn fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be ashamed of ones work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.25. The writer of the passage thinks that _.A. education can settle most of the worlds problemsB. free education for all probably leads to a perfect worldC. free education wont help to solve problemsD. all the social problems cant be solved by education26. The writer wants to prove that _.A. our society needs all kinds of jobsB. our society needs free education for all C. a farmer is more important than a professorD. work with hands is the most important27. The purpose of education is _.A. to choose officials for the countryB. to prepare children mainly for their future workC. to let everyone receive education fit for himD. to build a perfect world28.

This broad family includes most of the European languages spoken today. The Indo-European family includes several major branches (分支): Latin and the modern Romance languages (French etc.), the Germanic languages (English, German, Swedish etc.), the Celtic languages (Welsh, Irish Gaelic etc.), Greek and so on. The influence of the original (最初的,最早的) Indo- European language can still be seen, even though no written record of it exists. The word for father, for example, is vaterin German, paterin Latin, and pitrin Sanskrit. These words are similar to each other in different languages that share the same root. Of these branches of the Indo-European family, two are, for the study of the development of English, of special importance: the Germanic and the Romance. English is a member of the Germanic languages. It is believed that this group began as a common language in the Elbe river region about 3,000 years ago. By the second century BC, this single language had divided into three different sub-groups: East Germanic, spoken by peoples who moved back to southeastern Europe. No East Germanic language is spoken today, and the only written East Germanic language that survives is Gothic. North Germanic, which developed into the modern Scandinavian languages: Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and Icelandic. West Germanic, the ancestor (祖先) of modern German, Dutch, Flemish, Frisian, and English.33. The main purpose of this passage is to discuss _.A. the branches of the Indo-European familyB. the history of the English languageC. a large language family D. the differences between languages34. The underlined word "sub-groups" probably means _. A. branches B. small groups C. large groups D. languages35. The passage is likely taken from _. A. a textbook for primary students B. a website on how to learn EnglishC. a magazine on English research D. a report on language development第二节(共5小题;每小题 2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Much meaning can be expressed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. 36 In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not for too long. And if he sensed that you are staring at him, he may feel uncomfortable.The same is true in our daily life. If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. 37 . Eyes do speak, right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. 38 . If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her, his intentions are clear. He wishes to attract her attention, and let her know that he is admiring her.However, when two persons are busy with a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listeners eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking. 39 If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if he trying to control you, you will feel embarrassed. A poor lie-teller usually exposes(曝露) himself by looking too long at the victim. He wrongly believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. 40 In fact, eye contact should be made based on specific relationship and situation.A. On the contrary, it will give him away.B. Do you have such a kind of experience?C. Thats what normal eye contact is all about.D. Actually, continuous eye contact is limited to lovers only.E. After all, everybody likes to be stared at for quite a long time.F. But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex.G. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel annoyed at being stared at that way.第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 完形填空( 共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。There was a man who played the piano in a small bar.
