(1) ．由全文可知，“I”對(duì)“a man”并不認(rèn)識(shí)，故可排除A、D; understand表示“理解”，與全文語(yǔ)意不符。而由下文中對(duì)“a man”行為舉止的描述可知，“I”無(wú)意中注意到了有人在暗中觀察自己，notice一詞正可以表示“無(wú)意中注意到”。(2) ．由于那個(gè)人不停地瞅著“我”的方向，給“我”造成的印象是“似乎認(rèn)識(shí)我”。(3) ．由下文“他在_____地讀報(bào)紙”可知，報(bào)紙應(yīng)該是打開(kāi)著的。(4) ．由下文的“那人是位偵探”，并且是“跟蹤作者來(lái)到餐館”，可知此處最合理的選項(xiàng)應(yīng)該是pretending，表示“假裝在讀報(bào)紙”。而hope表示“希望”；think 表示“認(rèn)為”；continue表示“繼續(xù)”。(5) ．本題考查詞義辨析。see表示“看出，留意”；find表示“發(fā)現(xiàn)”；guess表示“猜想”；learn表示“得知”。由于該句中was keeping an eye on me與上文的kept glancing in my direction相呼應(yīng)，所以此處應(yīng)該表示“我看得出他--直在觀察我”。句中but與pretending to read構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。(6) ．在全文第一句中就已經(jīng)交代出“等著我點(diǎn)的飯菜”，可知當(dāng)服務(wù)員給我送來(lái)的應(yīng)該是已點(diǎn)的飯菜，故應(yīng)該用food。(7) ．由下文的“all the waiters in the restaurant knew me”可知，那個(gè)人被我和服務(wù)員熟悉的交談所困惑。(8) ．A項(xiàng)表示“與……聊天”；B項(xiàng)表示“看著……”；C項(xiàng)表示“嘲笑……”；D項(xiàng)表示“談?wù)摗薄Ｔ诓宛^里，服務(wù)員與熟悉的顧客之間的交談應(yīng)該是“聊天”。(9) ．由上下文語(yǔ)意可知，該句中as表示“隨著……”之意，而went on表示“進(jìn)行下去，繼續(xù)下去”，所以空格處應(yīng)表示“隨著時(shí)間的推移”。(10) ．該句中it為形式主語(yǔ)，that all the waiters in the restaurant knew me為真正的主語(yǔ)。對(duì)于偵探來(lái)講，看到自己的跟蹤目標(biāo)幾乎與餐館里所有的服務(wù)員都熟悉自然令人困惑。A項(xiàng)表示“真實(shí)的”；B項(xiàng)表示“有希望的”；D項(xiàng)表示“可能的”。(11) ．由后文的“He came into the kitchen”可以作出判斷。(12) ．由“he paid his bill”可知“此人”就要“離開(kāi)”。(13) ．由上文所述，文中的“I”已經(jīng)注意到了“the man”對(duì)于自己的注意，在他離去后，自然要打聽(tīng)一下那個(gè)人想要干什么。A項(xiàng)表示“想，想要”；B項(xiàng)表示“嘗試，試圖”；C項(xiàng)表示“命令”；D項(xiàng)表示“希望”。(14) ．由上文的“that man was a detective和下文的because he thought you were the man he”可知“I”被人跟蹤了。(15) ．由上下文語(yǔ)境可知此處指“因?yàn)樗J(rèn)為你就是他要找的人”。(16) ．在提示了那個(gè)人的身份和行為后，作為“I”自然十分驚訝。(17) ．由偵探的跟蹤行為及后文的“he looked very much like you”可知餐館老板在此處的話應(yīng)該表示肯定的語(yǔ)氣。(18) ．由上文的“left without another glance in my direction”可知偵探已經(jīng)弄明白了是自己搞錯(cuò)了。(19) ．由下文的“I might have been in trouble”可知，此時(shí)作者為自己感到慶幸。(20) ．由全文最后一句“哎呀，真慶幸我來(lái)到了一家別人都認(rèn)識(shí)我的餐館，否則我就可能陷入麻煩中了”可知，該空格最恰當(dāng)?shù)倪x項(xiàng)為otherwise。thus表示“如此，這樣”，表示順承；however表示“然而”，表示轉(zhuǎn)折；therefore表示“因此”，表示因果。 |

That holiday morning I didn’t have to attend school. Usually, on holidays, Mother 26 me to sleep in. And I would certainly take full advantage of it. __27_ , on this special morning, I felt like getting up early.
I stood by my window overlooking(眺望，俯視) the _28_, having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something _29_ in life.
As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off, I 30 an old man on a bicycle with a bucket（水桶） _31_ on its handle(把手) and pieces of old and used cloth in a basket and bottles on its back-carriage(后座). He 32 from one car to another, washing and cleaning them. From the water on the ground, it seemed that he had already 33 washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars. He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.
Several thoughts 34 my mind as I watched him work. He wasn’t well-dressed. He had on a pair of shorts and a(n) 35 T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern 36 would want to be seen riding on. But he seemed 37 with life. There he was, working hard at his small business, 38 passers-by(過(guò)路人) and stopping to have a free talk now and then 39 elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.
There was a noticeable sense of 40 in the way he seemed to be doing things— 41 the windscreen (擋風(fēng)玻璃), then standing back to look at it proudly; scrubbing (擦凈) the wheels and 42 , standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.
It was a 43 to learn, I felt. One doesn’t have to beg for a 44 at any age if one is in good health and willing to work hard. For a while I felt 45 of myself. Though I am young —just sixteen, and there was this old man before me who must have got up very early and been busy working so hard and actively.

People with bigger brains ftend to score higher on standardized tests of intelligence， according to new study findings.
However， the study author Dr Michael A.McDaniel of the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond emphasized that these findings represent a general trend， and people with small heads should not automatically believe they are less intelligent. For instance， Albert Einstein’s brain was “not particularly large”， McDaniel noted. “There’s some relationship between brain size and intelligence on the average， but there’s plenty of room for exceptions，” he said.
Interest in the relationship between brain size and intelligence grew in the1830s， when German anatomist(解剖學(xué)家) Frederich Tiedmann wrote that he believed there was “an unquestionable connection between the size of the brain and the mental energy displayed by the individual man”. Since that statement， scientists have conducted numerous studies to determine if Tiedmann’s assertion was， in fact， correct. Most studies have looked into the link between head size and intelligence. More recently， however， researchers have published additional studies on brain size and intelligence， measured using MRI scan(核磁共振成像掃描).
For his study， McDaniel analyzed more than 20 studies that looked into the relationship between brain size and intelligence in a total of 1,530 people. The studies showed that on the average， people with larger brain volume tended to be more intelligent. The relationship between brain volume and intelligence was stronger in women than men， and in adults than in children. McDaniel notes in the journal Intelligence.
McDaniel is not sure why the relationship was stronger for adults and women. “Other research has shown that women， on the average， tend to have smaller brains than men， but score just as well—if not higher—in tests of intelligence，” he said.
McDaniel insisted that the relationship between brain size and intelligence is not a “perfect” one. “One can certainly find lots of examples of smaller-sized people who are highly intelligent，” he said， “But， on the average， the relationship holds.”
【小題1】. What does the text mainly talk about？
| A．MRI scans are applied to intelligence. |

| C．Dr McDaniel did well in his intelligence study. |
| D．Scientists are interested in Tiedmann’s idea. |

| B．the result of intelligence test was false |
| C．being hard working is more important than intelligence |
| D．brain size doesn’t necessarily decide the level of intelligence |
| A．many scientists agreed with him |
| B．numerous studies have failed to prove his idea |
| C．MRI scan became popularly used |
| D．lots of researchers were interested in the connections between head size and intelligence |
| A．proves Tiedmann’s idea was completely true |
| B．shows women are smarter than men |
| C．involves many studies and a lot of people |

Events took place around the world last week to celebrate International Women’s Day.
The March eighth observance came as thousands of delegates from one hundred thirty countries met at the United Nations in New York. They discussed progress on a plan of action for women's equality. The document was approved ten years ago at a conference in Beijing.
It calls for improved health care for women, along with economic and political gains. It also calls for efforts to reduce human rights violations against women.

In Washington, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice held a Conference of Women Leaders. Laura Bush, the president's wife, spoke at the event which had representatives from fifteen Muslim nations. The first lady praised recent political gains for Muslim women.
In Afghanistan, for example, President Hamid Karzai has appointed the first female governor of a province. In Iraq, women hold almost one-third of the 249 seats in the newly elected National Assembly. And Missus Bush noted that nearly half the voters in the Palestinian presidential election were women.
International Women’s Day began in nineteen ten in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was designed to build support for voting rights for women worldwide. Missus Bush noted that it took American women many years to be recognized as full citizens with the right to vote.
Last week, just before International Women Day's, hundreds of women and men demonstrated in Kuwait to demand the right for women to vote. The government urged parliament to act quickly to debate such reforms.

Sustainable development is applied to just about everything from energy to clean water and economic growth, and as a result it has become difficult to question either the basic assumptions behind it or the way the concept is put to use. This is especially true in agriculture, where sustainable development is often taken as the measure of progress without a proper appreciation of historical and cultural perspectives.
To start with, it is important to remember that the nature of agriculture has changed markedly throughout history, and will continue to do so. Medieval agriculture in northern Europe fed, clothed and sheltered a mainly rural society with a much lower population density than it is today. It had minimal effect on biodiversity, and any pollution it caused was typically localized. In terms of energy use and the nutrients captured in the product it was relatively inefficient.
Contrast this with farming since the start of the industrial revolution. Competition from overseas led farmers to specialize and increase yields. Throughout this period food became cheaper, safer and more reliable. However, these changes have also led to habitat loss and to reducing biodiversity.
All this means that agriculture in the 21st century will have to be very different from how it was in the 20th. This will require thorough thinking. For example, we need to move away from the idea that traditional practices are certainly more sustainable than new ones. We also need to abandon the notion that agriculture can be “zero impact”. The key will be to abandon the rather simple and static(穩(wěn)定的)measures of sustainability, which centre on the need to maintain production without increasing damage. Instead we need a more dynamic interpretation, one that looks at the pros and cons of all the various way land is used. There are many different ways to measure agricultural performance besides food yield: energy use, environmental costs, water purity, carbon footprint and biodiversity. It is clear, for example, that the carbon of transporting tomatoes from Spain to the UK is less than that of producing them in the UK with additional heating and lighting. But we do not know whether lower carbon footprints will always be better for biodiversity.
What is important is recognizing that sustainable agriculture is not just about sustainable food production.
【小題1】How do people often measure progress in agriculture?
| A．By its impact on the environment | B．By its contribution to economic growth |
| C．By its productivity | D．By its sustainability |
| A．Localized pollution | B．The shrinking of farmland |
| C．the decrease of biodiversity | D．competition from overseas |
| A．They are not necessarily sustainable | B．They have not kept pace with population growth |
| C．They have remained the same over the centuries | D．They are environmentally friendly |
| A．It will abandon traditional farming practices | B．It will mainly keep traditional farming |
| C．It will go through complete changes | D．It will cause zero damage to the environment |
| A．To remind people of the need of sustainable development. |
| B．To urge people to rethink what sustainable agriculture is. |
| C．To advance new criteria for measuring farming progress. |
| D．To suggest ways of ensuring sustainable food production. |
