For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)Dear Sally, I recently became engaged. I love my fiancé（未婚夫）a lot but we are getting into a lot of arguments (25) _ our wedding plans. I would prefer a small wedding, just our immediate family and closest friends. I think it is such a special moment and I only want the people who are most important to be near us. I dont want to be surrounded by people not really (26)_ (care) about us. He wants the whole world to be therethe mail carrier, the baker, the butcher! My fiancé says a wedding day is (27)_ (important) day in anyones life. He wants to share his joy with everyone. Its not a question whether we can afford it although I do worry about how much a wedding costs and I would rather save the money for a house. I dislike (28) _ (fight) but I just dont feel comfortable with his plans. NervousDear Nervous, Planning weddings (29)_be very stressful. Each person has clear ideas about (30)_ his or her “perfect” wedding would be. Each person has dreams and hopes for that day. Now it is (31)_ good time to practice compromising( 妥协) with your husband-to-be. Neither one of you should be unhappy on your wedding day. If you get your way, your husband will be unhappy. If he gets his way, it sounds (32)_ _ you will be unhappy. Why dont the two of you talk about a compromise? Perhaps a medium-sized wedding? Perhaps two weddingsa small intimate ceremony and a large reception? You will have to compromise many times in your married life. You both can start now.Sally (B)Since early times, people (33) _ (fascinate) by the idea of life existing somewhere else besides the Earth. Until recently, scientists believe that life on other planets was just a hopeful dream. But now they are beginning (34)_(locate) places where life could form. In 1997, they saw other evidence of planets near other stars like the sun. But scientists now think that life could be even (35) _ (near) in our own solar system. One place scientists are studying closely is Europa, a moon of Jupiter. Space probe（探索） has provided evidence (36) _ Europa has a large ocean under its surface. The probe has also made scientists think that under its surface is a rocky core (地核) which (37) _ (give) off volcanic heat. Water and heat from volcanic activity are two basic conditions (38) _ (need) for life to form. A third is certain basic chemicals like carbon, oxygen and nitrogen. Scientists believe that there may be such lying at the bottom of Europas ocean. They may already create life or may be about to. You may wonder (39) _ light is also needed for life to form. Until recently, scientists thought that light was essential. But now places have been found on earth, (40) _ are in total blackness such as caves several miles beneath the surface. And bacteria, primitive forms of life, have been seen there. So the lack of light in Europas sub-surface ocean doesnt automatically rule out life forming.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. signal B. force C. commercial D. functioning E. actually F. original G. identifying H. track I. monitor J. disaster K. weightYou never see him, but theyre with you every time you fly. They record where you are going, how fast youre traveling and whether everything on your airplane is 41 normally. Their ability to withstand (承受) almost any 42 makes them seem like something out of a magic book. Theyre known as the black box. When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India Ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for 43 what went wrong. So when a French submarine (潜水艇) detected the devices 44 five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed. In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would 45 basic information like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. 46 flights by 1960. Early models often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the box was completely redesigned and moved to the back of the planethe area least affected by impactfrom  its 47 position in the landing wells (起落架舱). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never 48 black, be painted orange or yellow to aid visibility.      Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which is designed to track pilots conversations, and a flight-data recorder, which is meant to 49 fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircrafts final moments. Placed in an insulated (隔绝的) case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can withstand huge 50 and temperatures up to 2,000. When in deep water, theyre also able to send signals from depths of 20,000 ft. Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1,2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say theyre still likely to turn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one planes black boxes were never recovered. III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The Beginning of DramaThere are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most widely accepted today is 51 on the assumption that drama evolved from ritual( 宗教仪式). The argument for this view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings 52 the natural forces of the worldeven the seasonal changesas unpredictable, and they sought through various means to 53 these unknown and feared powers. Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then kept and repeated until they changed into 54 rituals. 55 , stories arose which explained or masked the mysteries of the rituals. As times passed, some rituals were 56 , but the stories, later called myths, continued to exist and provided material for art and drama.Those who believed that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rituals contained the seed of theatre because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. 57 , a suitable site had to be provided for performances and when the entire community did not participate, a(n) 58 division was usually made between the “area of acting” and the “area in which an audience sits”. Besides, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was 59 to avoiding mistakes in the practice of rituals, religious leaders usually 60 that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often imitated other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed (用哑剧表演出) the 61 effectsuccess in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sunas an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representatives were separated from 62 activities.Another theory traces the theaters origin from the human interest in 63 . According to this view, tales about the hunt, war or other things are told and gradually spread 64 through the use of action and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theater to those dances that are primarily gymnastic or that are 65 of animal movements and sounds.51. A .focusedB. dependedC. basedD. determined 52.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AShyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned about their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.Shy people, who have low self-respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by
