I was _36_to see that it was an English-English dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary._37_it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one _38_, to be honest, I found it extremely _39_ to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and _40_ not fully understand the meanings. I was used to the _41_ bilingual dictionaries, in which the words are _42_ both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt _43_ to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I _44_ that monolingual dictionaries are _45_ in learning a foreign language As I found out, there is _46_, often no perfect equivalence(对应) between two _47_ in two language. My aunt even goes so far as to _48_ that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the _49_ meaning of a word in English! _50_ , she insisted that I read the definition(定义) of a world in a monolingual dictionary _51_ I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning. _52_, I have come to see what she meant. Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses a(n) _53_ number of words, around 2, 000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am _54_ exposed to（接触）the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas. _55_ this, I can express myself more easily in English.第三部分: 阅读理解 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AOne day Mr. Brown sees a young woman in the street with children.

Decide positively that you want to quit. Try to avoid negative thoughts about how difficult it might be. Develop strong personal reasons as well as your health and responsibility to others. For example, think of all the time you waste taking cigarette breaks, rushing out to buy a pack, hunting a light, etc. Set a date for quitting - perhaps a special day like your birthday, a holiday. If you smoke heavily at work, quit during your vacation. Make the date holy seriously, and dont let anything change it. Begin to condition yourself physically; start a modest (适当的) exercise; drink more water; get plenty of rest.Immediately after quitting. The first few days after you quit, spend as much free time as possible in places where smoking is prohibited, e.g. libraries, museums, theatres, department stores, etc. Drink large quantities of water and fruit juice. Try to avoid wine, coffee, and other drinks which remind you of cigarette smoking. Strike up a conversation with someone instead of a match for a cigarette.

News C. Health D. Culture D Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be game of some kind football, hockey, golf, or tennis. It may be mountaineering. Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their relaxation. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore (忽略), but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods. If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities. A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier (滑雪者) is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. But it is not unusual for man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more ski
