15小题,每小题 2分,满分 30分)A English is a very,interesting language.It has borrowed words from many other languages.Immigrants(移民)coming into the United States have contributed many words to the language,which have kept their original pronunciation.Coolie and kowlow”were taken from the Chinese language,“kamikaze from the Japanese,“shampoo“from India,4*blitz from German,4iamigo and“Los Angeles”from Spanish and so on.Many students have studied English,for years,some as many as eight.However,some students still have difficulty in speaking fluent English.Some know many words but are unable to discern them when native speakers use them.In our Oral English classes we will focus on speaking and listening to native English speakers.For this reason,because we are trying to train your ears to hear English and your mouths to speak intelligible(易理解的)English,we will have a rule that ONLY ENGLISH will be spoken in our English classes.Anyone speaking Chinese in class will be required to pay a fine in order to encourage the speaking and understanding of English.If teachers enter a classroom and discover that anyone is speaking Chinese,they will require everyone in the room to pay the fine.It is everyones job to enforce the English-Only rule.It is for your benefit.It is because we want to accustom(使习惯于)your ears to hearing English.Other subjects may be learned solely from books but the only way to learn a foreign language is to SPEAK IT!Students are often nervous about speaking in class at first but we hope to make the classes fun,so you will forget your nervousness and learn to speak out.Enjoy your classes.56.The first paragraph is mainly about.A.the difficulty ofleaming English.B.how interesting and various English isC.different words in different languages D.the immigrants contributions to America 57.The underlined word“discern“in Para 2 can be replaced by.A.understandB.noticeC.hearD.speakIn the author s opinion,the only way to learn a language well is to.A.listen to it on the radio B.leam it from books C.play games with it D.speak it oftenThe article is probably aimed at.A.Japanese studentsB.German studentsC.Chinese studentsD.Indian studentsB World Car Free Day is a very important day on the environmental calendar.Every September 22,governments,green groups and ordinary citizens stress the damage cars arc doing to the earth.The day is a reminder that wc do not need to rely so much on cars.Those who take part in the activity hope that wc all should realize wc do not have to accept our car-control led society.Carlos Pardo from Colombias Sustainable Urban Transport Project said,“World Car Free Day is not only a celebration of fun ways to get around the city,but a demonstration of traffic-free streets and clean air is possible.But we do not want just one day of celebration and then a return to nonnal life.When people gel out of(heir cars,they should stay out of(heir cars.It is up to us,our cities and our governments to help create lasting change to benefit walkers,cyclists and other people who do not drive cars.”Car-free days were organized as early as during the 1970s,and several car-free days were organized in European cities during the early 1990s.An international car-free day was organized in Europe in 1999.The European Union adopted the idea in 2000.Today,as many as 100 million people in over 1500 cities worldwide celebrate this day.World Car Free Day aims to take a large number of cars off the streets for all or part of a day.This will give people a chance to sec what their town might look like with fewer cars.But some people say it is a one-day trick and docs not make people give up their cars for the rest of the year.They say what is needed is a move towards a more sustainable city transportation system.60.September 22 is a day.A.when cars cause no damage to(he earthB.when we can go on separate holidays C.that reminds us(o drive our cars lessD.that tells us to refuse to drive any carsAccording to Carlos Pardo,.A.it is impossible to have traffic-free streets B.people should keep away from their cars C.its funny to get around the city without cars D.each day should be like World Car Free DayWhat can be inferred from the passage?A.No cars can be seen on World Car Free Day B.Further action is needed to make people drive less C.Car-free days first appeared about 50 years ago.D.Most people in the world are celebrating the dayC The first time I saw Carlos I would never have believed he was going to change my life.I had my arms fuJI of books and I was tearing into the classroom when I ran into something solid.It was Carlos.My,youre tall J he said.Of course,the class began to laugh.Angry,I walked to my seat without a word.I glanced back to see if Reed Harrington was laughing with the rest.That would be the last straw.But Reed was studying chemistry and did not seem to be aware of anything else.I didnt know why 1 considered Reed my friend.Maybe just because he was a good two inches taller than I.Anyway,every time I blew out my birthday candles and made a wish,it was for a date with Rccd Harrington.t4Takc that scat,Mr.McCarthy told the proud newcomer Carlos,pointing to the only empty one,in the back of the room.Carlos smiled broadly.44But I need a couple of dictionaries.Again the class laughed,but now they were laughing with Carlos,not at him.He had been here only 10 minutes and already he had them on his side.It was the school elections that made me think of Carlos again.Reed Harrington was voted president and Carlos vice president,4Hovv come?”I kept asking myself.How come this shrimp(虾)whos only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular.”So on that morning,I stopped Carlos and said,It doesnt seem to bother youbeing short.He looked up at me.Of course I mind being short.But there isnt anything I can do about it.When I realized I was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin,I just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself.“You seem to get along great,I admitted.But what about me?Nobody wants to date a girl taller than he is.”The trouble with you is youre afraid to be yourself.Youre smart.And you could be pretty.In fact,you might be morethan pretty.I felt myself turning red.61.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.The writer cared inuch about Reeds attitude.B.Carlos isnt popular with the classmates.C.The writer is always confident with herself.D.Carlos always makes fun of the writer.62.From the passage,we can conclude.A.Carlos is as tall as the writerB.Carlos fell in love with the writer later C.the writer is very tallD.Reed,Carlos and the writer became good friends laterWhat can wc use to describe Carlos character?A.Handsome and proud C.Diligent and helpfulWhafs the best title of the passage?A.A girl and a boy.C.My helpful classmates.NOT all memories are sweet.Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences.Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars.Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill,which will help people forget bad memories.The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a fii.ghtening experience.They hope it might reduce,or possibly wipe out,the effect of painful memories.In November,experts tested a drug on people in the US and France.The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain.So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced,not that the memories are wiped out.They are not sure to what degree peoples memories are aftecled.The research has caused a great deal of argument.Some think it is a bad idea,while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after war.They say that there are many people who suffer from terrib le memories.Some memories can ruin peoples lives.They come back to you when you dont want to have them in a daydream or nightmare.They usually come with very painful emotions,said Roger Pitman,a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School
