     Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own. We take delight in the
existence of creatures and even whole societies beyond our everyday lives.
     This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists have made to find out whether life of
some kind exists on Mars, and the popularity of fantasy (幻想) literature or movies like The Lord of the Rings.
This sense of wonder draws us to each other, to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But
have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already
exist all around us?
     Human beings, as biologists have suggested, possess an inborn desire to connect with and understand other
life forms. However, people, especially in big cities, often lead rather isolated lives. In a study of British
schoolchildren, it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from television
shows and video games than with common wildlife. Without modern technology, a small pond could be an
amazing world filled with strange and beautiful plants, insects, birds, and animals. When we lack meaningful
interaction (交互) with the world around us, and sometimes even with our families and friends, we seek to
understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen.
     The world of make-believe is not necessarily bad. But when the world of fantasy becomes the only outlet
(出路) for our sense of wonder, then we are really missing something. We are missing a connection with the
living world. Other wonderful worlds exist all around us. But even more interesting is that if we look closely
enough, we can see that these worlds, in a broad sense, are really part of our own.
1. The popularity of The Lord of the Rings proves _____.
[     ]
A. the close connection between man and the fantasy world
B. the wonderful achievements of fantasy literature
C. the fine taste of moviegoers around the world
D. the general existence of the sense of curiosity
2. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
[     ]
A. People are far less familiar with the world of fantasy.
B. The world around us could serve as a source of wonder.
C. The world of fantasy can be mirrored by a small and lively pond.
D. Modern technology prevents us from developing our sense of wonder.
3. If our sense of wonder relies totally on the world of make-believe, we will _____.
[     ]
A. fail to appreciate the joy in our lives
B. be confused by the world of make-believe
C. miss the chance to recognize the fantasy world
D. be trapped by other worlds existing all around us
4. What is the main purpose of the passage?
[     ]
A. To show us the hidden beauty in our world.
B. To warn us not to get lost in the fantasy world.
C. To argue against the misuse of the sense of wonder.
D. To discuss the influence of the world of make-believe.

第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題，每題2分，滿分40分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。
The National Outline for Medium and Long Term Education Reform and Development (2010 - 20) was released over the weekend. Here are some of the highlights:
Four – percent effort
The government says spending on education will be 4 percent of GDP by 2012. globally, average spending on education is about 4.5% of GDP. China spend 3,33% in 2008. according to Hu Angang, of Tsinghua University’s Center for China Studies, even if China reaches that goal, it will only rank about 100 th out of 188 countries.
Administrative rank
Administrative rankings for school leaders are to be phased out to tackle the bureaucracy (官僚機(jī)構(gòu)) problem that limits educational development, according to Cheng Fangping, of the national Institute for Educational Research. Areas like teaching programs, scientific research, and technological development will be more independent.
Vocational Education
The system will be free of charge. According to Wu Yan, of Beijing Institute of Educational Sciences, this will be key to developing China’s production capacity and will improve poor people’s lives dramatically.
Entering college
Universities could eventually have the freedom to choose some of their own high school applicants. Normally, students are accepted based on the uniform national exam scores. Also, students who agree to go to a remote area could be admitted to university under special circumstances. The most likely change could come on the college entrance English test, which might be modeled on the IELTS or TOEFL. Students will be able to take it several times and pick their best score.
56．Which of the following is true in the future according to the passage?
A．Applicants could take the IELTS or TOEFL instead of the college entrance English test.
B．Colleges will be given the right to choose all of their own applicants.
C．Vocational education will be party free to make people’s lives better.
D．Applicants could sit for the college entrance English test more than once.
57．Which of the following words is closest in meaning to “uniform” in the last paragraph?
A．formal      B．official     C．same D．united
58．We can learn from the passage even though our country spends 4% of GDP on education in 2012, ________.
A．there will still be 188 countries ahead of China in this aspect
B．China will certainly overtake the global average spending on education
C．there might be nearly 100 countries ahead of China in this aspect
D．China will be the 100 th country to spend over the global average on education
59．From the third paragraph, we can infer that________.
A．school leaders will have more freedom to manage the school
B．schools will have more limits from the government

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D項中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

China launched its first manned spaceship at 9:00 a.m. Wednesday, becoming the third country in the world to send a person into orbit after the former Soviet Union and the United States. Astronaut Yang Liwei became China’s first space man.

With a column of beautiful smoke, the Shenzhou V craft cut across a bright northwest China sky at exactly 9:00 a.m. Wednesday and went into orbit 10 minutes later.

China Central Television’s Channel One cut into its regular programming to announce the launch. The station later showed the Shenzhou V streaking(moving very fast)into the sky and disappearing, its tracer billowing (to fill with air and become larger)behind it.

Minutes after the launch, a CCTV announcer said that Shenzhou V and 38-year-old Yang Liwei, an air force pilot since 1983, had “entered orbit at 9:10.” It reported Yang was “reading a flight manual(手冊) in the capsule of the Shenzhou V spacecraft and looked composed and at ease.”

The Shenzhou V launch came after four test launches of unmanned capsules that orbited the earth for nearly a week before parachuting back to China’s northern grasslands. Reports said the manned flight was expected to last about 22 hours.

President Hu Jintao watched the launch at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in northwest China’s Gansu Province.

Hu called the launch “the glory of our great motherland and a mark for the initial victory of the country’s first manned space flight and for the significant, historic step of the Chinese people in the advance of climbing over the peak of the world’s science and technology.”

He said that: “The Party and the people will never forget those who have set up the outstanding merit(貢獻(xiàn)) in the space industry for the motherland, the people and the nation.”

“The launch of the Shenzhou V is long-awaited by the Chinese people,” Foreign Minister spokeswoman Zhang Qiyue said on Tuesday. She said the flight was a key step in the “Peaceful development of space.”

NASA Administrator Sean O’ Keefe also congratulated on China’s first successful human space flight.

41. The following are countries succeeded in sending man into space EXCEPT ____

A. China          B. Germany      C. America             D. the former Soviet Union

42. The underlined word “composed” in paragraph 4 means_____

A. happy      B. nervous        C. calm        D. excited

43. According to the passage which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. It’s the first time that China has sent up its first manned spaceship.

B. Before the Shenzhou V launched, four test launches of it had moved around the earth.

C. The 38-year-old astronaut was sent into space by China’s ShenzhouⅤspacecraft and landed safely the next day.

D. Yang Liwei is China’s first astronaut in space.

44. The writer quoted(引用) Foreign Minister spokeswoman Zhang Qiyue’s words to express ________.

A. the Chinese have been expecting the successful space launch and it’s a great contribution to the peaceful development of space.

B. a lot of Chinese people are waiting for the launch.

C. this launch is the first time in China.

D. China’s manned spaceship made a peaceful development of space.

45. The description of Yang Liwei tells us that _______.

A. Yang didn’t know what to do and he was looking up a flight manual

B. it’s 10 years since he became an air force pilot

C. Yang entered orbit at exactly 9:00 a.m.

D. Yang trained himself well and felt very satisfied with everything in the space craft

I ran across an old photo of him the other day, thinking of some old things. He’s been dead for 25 years. His name was Rex.

11【題文】  With its budget of $80 million , John Woo as director, and an all-star cast（明星云集的演員陣容）, Red Cliff is the most expensive and ambitious Asian-financed film ever. Last week I saw the release of the second part, and boy oh boy does it shows.

But watching the film as a foreigner I felt I was missing out on something. Not knowing my Cao Cao's from my Zhou Yu's, I was not even sure whom I wanted to win. Certainly after the opening scene, in which Cao Cao is seen watching a game of Cuju, an ancient Chinese variation of football, I knew who had my support. After all, any man who enjoys his football is someone after my own heart. But after Cao Cao resorted to some evil strategies against his enemies in the south, I wasn't so sure he was the man I should be rooting for.

And there is a lot more to Red Cliff 2 than just extravagant battle scenes. The film does not take itself too seriously. Conversations between leaders are littered with one-liners, many of which had the audience in laughter. There is even enough to keep fans of more romantic entertainment happy too. This includes a charming relationship between a southern spy（偵探）and an innocent northern soldier. The characters' interaction provides some genuinely heart-warming moments in the middle of the battle.

Clocking in at（結(jié)束于）around two hours, the film certainly does justice to the history story. When I walked out the cinema, I felt as drained（精疲力竭） as Cao Cao's soldiers must have 1,800 years ago.

41.By expressing “boy oh boy” in the first paragraph, the author seems to show that _______.

A．the film characters are like boys who are childish.

B．the film provides amazing and surprising scenes for audience.

C．the film is suitable for younger boys to watch.

D．the film scene is so bloody that boys shouldn’t watch it.

42.When did the author change his attitude toward Cao Cao?

A．When he read the history story about Cao Cao.

B．When he saw Cao Cao was watching a game of Cuju,

C．When he realized that Cao Cao took some bad measures to beat his enemies.

D．When he saw the romantic love story of Cao Cao and a southern spy.

43.The following factors of the film are all mentioned in the passage except_______.

A．high budget

B．leading roles

C．a(chǎn)ctors and actress

D．conversations

44.From the passage we can infer that_______.

A．the author is a football fan in a foreign country.

B．Cuju is the name of an ancient Chinese variation of football.

C．the film Red Cliff 2 lasts about two hours.

D．the author was very tired after about two hours’ battle.

13【題文】The new iPhone 3G should please everyone. Its look and feel are only slightly improved, but a faster network loads Web pages more quickly, true GPS functionality allows it to easily find places nearby, and the new $199 price (down from $400) makes it an affordable luxury.

Before deciding whether to buy, however, make sure you can actually take advantage of the iPhone 3G's high-speed data network. 3G stands for third-generation, which in non-geek speak translates to Web pages and mail messages that, ideally, load about three times faster than on the original iPhone. Even better, 3G coverage enables you to make a phone call and surf the Web at the same time. That's great, if you live or work in a place where the 3G network of AT&T（美國電話電報公司） (the sole wireless carrier of the iPhone) is active. That's not so great in cities like New York where AT&T's cellular coverage is awful. As one of my colleagues in New York City, who bought the original iPhone, commented, "It's just a toy. You can't make phone calls on it, so I carry my Verizon phone with me all the time."

The real fun begins when you tap on the icon called "App Store" and start browsing the hundreds of add-on applications that have been developed just for the iPhone. You'll find tons of games (I like JirboBreak, a free game inspired by the Atari classic Breakout) and mobile versions of popular websites like Pandora, Facebook, MySpace and the New York Times. Most apps will cost you, but the vast majority are $9.99 or less. The apps work on the old iPhones too, but you'll enjoy them a lot more on the iPhone 3G because many of the programs, including Yelp (local business reviews), Whrrl (mobile social networking) and UrbanSpoon (restaurant reviews), use your exact location — provided by the iPhone 3G's GPS chip — to make recommendations. The apps also load much faster over the 3G network.

57.The new iPhone 3G has following features except that _______

A．It looks and feels better

B．It has a faster network

C．It is easy to locate a place

D．It is too expensive for people to buy

58.Why do one of my colleagues carry Verizon phone with him all the time? ______.

A．Because iPhone 3G is just a toy.

B．ecause he prefers Verizon phone better.

C．Because AT&T's cellular coverage is terrible there

D．Because Verizon phone enables him make a phone call and surf the Web at the same time

59.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage. ____.

A．App Store will offer you great fun.

B．many apps have been developed for the iPhone.

C．Most apps are very expensive.

D．Pandora, Facebook, MySpace and the New York Times are popular websites.

60.From the passage we know that the attitude of the author toward iPhone 3G is _____.

A．doubtful

B．a(chǎn)ppreciative

C．optimistic

D．pessimistic

14【題文】Birds that are half-asleep—with one brain hemisphere (半球) alert and the other sleeping—control which side of the brain remains awake, according to a new study of sleeping ducks.

Earlier studies have documented half-brain sleep in a wide range of birds. The brain hemispheres take turns sinking into the sleep stage characterized by slow brain waves. The eye controlled by the sleeping hemisphere keeps shut, while the wakeful hemisphere’s eye stays open and alert. Birds also can sleep with both hemispheres resting at once.

Decades of studies of bird groups led researchers to predict extra alertness in the end-of-the-row sleepers which tend to be attacked more easily. Sure enough, the end birds tended to watch carefully on the side away from their companions. Ducks in the inner spots showed no preference for gaze direction.

Also, birds napping at the end of the line depend on single-hemisphere sleep, rather than total relaxation, more often than inner ducks did. Turning 16 birds through the positions in a four-duck row, the researchers found that compared with 12 percent for birds in internal spots, outer birds half-asleep during some 32 percent of napping time.

“We believe this is the first evidence for an animal behaviorally controlling sleep and wakefulness at the same time in different regions of the brain,” the researchers say.

The results provide the best evidence for a long-standing assumption that single-hemisphere sleep evolved as creatures scanned for enemies. The preference for opening an eye on the lookout side could be widespread, he predicts. He’s seen it in a pair of birds napping side-by-side in the zoo and in a single pet bird sleeping by a mirror. The mirror-side eye closed as if the reflection were a companion and the other eye stayed open.

Useful as half-sleeping might be, it’s only been found in birds and such water animals as dolphins, whales, and seals. Perhaps keeping one side of the brain awake allows a sleeping animal to surface occasionally to avoid drowning.

Studies of birds may offer unique insights into sleep. Jerome M. Siegel of the UCLA says he wonders if birds’ half-brain sleep “is just the tip of the iceberg.” He supposes that more examples may turn up when we take a closer look at other species.

65.According to the passage, birds often half sleep because ______.

A．they have to watch out for possible attacks

B．their brain hemispheres take turns to rest

C．the two halves of their brain are differently structured

D．they have to constantly keep an eye on their companions

66.What is implied about the example of a bird’s sleeping in front of a mirror?

A．An imagined companion gives the bird a sense of security.

B．Birds prefer to sleep in pairs for the sake of their security.

C．The phenomenon of birds napping in pairs is widespread.

D．A single pet bird enjoys seeing its own reflection in the mirror.

67. While sleeping, some water animals tend to keep half awake in order to ______.

A．a(chǎn)lert themselves to the approaching enemy

B．emerge from water now and then to breathe

C．be sensitive to the ever-changing environment

D．a(chǎn)void being swept away by rapid currents

68.By saying “just the tip of the iceberg”, Siegel suggests that ______.

A．half-brain sleep has something to do with icy weather

B．the mystery of half-brain sleep is close to being solved

C．most birds living in cold regions tend to be half sleepers

D．half-brain sleep may exist among other species

15【題文】People in China, as in other parts of the world, are waiting to see how U.S. President-elect Barack Obama will deal with global problems such as the current economic slowdown once he takes office. As Sam Beattie reports from Beijing, there is widespread hope for closer U.S.-Chinese cooperation.

For many students in Beijing, Mr. Obama symbolizes all that is possible in the United States. He's a popular winner here, seen as a self-made man who has made it to the top.

"I think he is very charming, and a president who can create a new era," said Zhang Wei, a university student. "I like him very much and most of my friends do too." Ni Weibo, another university student, agrees. "Sino-U.S. relations still need more cooperation," she said. "I think he will help take it to a new era."

China's President Hu Jintao congratulated Mr. Obama within hours of his victory, saying he hoped bilateral ties could be made stronger.

Political analysts here say China will be looking for the incoming president to avoid contentious issues such as Taiwan's independence, human rights and Tibet.

Instead, they say Beijing would like Mr. Obama to focus on solving the global economic crisis, and to help China's slowing economy by opening up U.S. markets.

But trade relations might be a sticking point, says Renmin University's Professor of International Studies, Shi Yinhong.

He warns, "There is a possibility that President Obama will take some protectionist measures which China will not accept, then trade disputes could develop to a degree that we have not seen ever before."

Despite making the headlines, Mr. Obama faces some tough challenges in managing the U.S. relationship with China. China is now a stronger and more confident country than the China his

predecessors dealt with. And in this time of economic uncertainty, analysts say it's a country with which Mr. Obama will want to maintain a good relationship.
