5.I travel a lot,and I find out different"styles"of directions every time I ask"How can I get to the post office?"
Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don't have names;in Japan,people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.For example,the Japanese will say to travelers,"Go straight down to the corner.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.The post office is across from the bus stop."
In the countryside of the American Midwest,there are not usually many landmarks.There are no mountains,so the land is very flat;in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles.Instead of landmarks,people will tell you directions and distances.In Kansas or Iowa,for example,people will say,"Go north two miles.Turn east,and then go another mile."
People in Los Angeles,California,have no idea of distance on the map;they  measure distance in time,not miles."How far away is the post office?"You ask."Oh,"they answer,"it's about five minutes from here."You say,"Yes,but how many miles away is it?"They don't know.
It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes.What happens in such a situation?A New Yorker might say,"Sorry,I have no idea."But in Yucatan,Mexico,no one answers"I don't know".
People in Yucatan believe that"I don't know"is impolite.They usually give an answer,often a wrong one.A tourist can get very,very lost in Yucatan!
72.When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place,they usuallyD.
A.describe the place carefully        
B.show him a map of the place
C.tell him the names of the streets     
D.refer to recognizable buildings and places
73.What is the place where people measure distance in time?B
A.New York.B.Los Angeles.C.Kansas.D.Iowa.
74.People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answerC.
A.in order to save time  
B.as a test   
C.so as to be polite 
D.for fun
75.What can we infer from the text?A
A.It's important for travelers to understand cultural differences.
B.It's useful for travelers to know how to ask the way correctly.
C.People have similar understandings of politeness.
D.New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.

4.Owning a smartphone may not be as smart as you think.They may let you surf the Internet,listen to music and take photos wherever you are,but they also turn you into a workaholic(工作狂).
A study suggests that,by giving you access to emails at all times,the smartphone adds as much as two hours to your working day.Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles.The study shows the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours,but a further 2 hours is spent responding to or sending work emails,or making work calls.
Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails.Some workers say they are on call almost 24 hours a day.Nearly two-thirds say they often check work emails just before they go to bed and as soon as they wake up,while over a third have replied to one in the middle of the night.The average time for first checking emails is between 6 am and 7 am,with more than a third checking their first email in this period,and a quarter checking them between 11pm and midnight.
Ghadi Hobeika,marketing director of Pixmania,said:"The ability to access millions of applications has made smartphones invaluable for many people.However,there are disadvantages.Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day,seven days a week,and smartphones mean that people cannot get away from work.The more constantly in touch we become,the more is expected of us in work."
67.With a smartphone the average UK working day isC.
A.2 hours       B.9 to 10 hours          C.11 to 12 hours               D.24 hours
68.It could be inferred from the text that the British peopleD.
A.prefer to check emails in the morning
B.are crazy about different smartphones
C.shorten their normal working hours
D.work extra hours with smartphones
69.What does Ghadi Hobeika feel about smartphones?C
A.They are unimportant for most of people.
B.They have disadvantages for some companies.
C.They make it impossible for people to rest.
D.They are useful to improve a work ability.
70.Where can we most probably read this text?B
A.In a science fiction
B.In a newspaper.
C.In a travel magazine
D.In a storybook.

3.How far would you be willing to go to satisfy your need to know?Far enough to find out your possibility of dying from a terrible disease?These days that's more than an academic question,as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story.
There are now more than a thousand genetic(基因的)tests,for everything from baldness to breast cancer,and the list is growing.Question is,do you really want to know what might eventually kill you?For instance,Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson,one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup,is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer'(老年癡呆癥).
"If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease,that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious,through which you see the rest of your life as you wait for that disease to hit you.It could really mess you up."Said Dr.Robert Green,a Harvard geneticist.
"Every ache and pain,"Smith suggested,could be understood as"the beginning of the end.""That's right.If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimer's disease,then every time you can't find your car in the parking lot,you think the disease has started."
Dr.Green has been thinking about this issue for years.He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimer's.It was thought that people who got bad news would,for lack of a better medical term,freak out.But Green and his team found that there was"no significant difference"between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives.In fact,most people think they can handle it.People who ask for the information usually can handle the information,good or bad,said Green.
71.The first paragraph is meant toB.
A.ask some questions              
B.introduce the topic
C.satisfy readers'curiosity         
D.describe an academic fact
72.Which of the following is true of James Watson?D
A.He is strongly in favor of the present genetic tests.
B.He is more likely to suffer from Alzheimer's disease.
C.He believes genetic mapping can help cure any disease.
D.He doesn't want to know his chance of getting a disease.
73.According to Paragraphs 3 and 4,if a person is at a higher genetic risk,it isA.
A.advisable not to let him know       
B.impossible to hide his disease
C.better to inform him immediately
D.necessary to remove his anxiety
74.The underlined part"freak out"in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to"A".
A.break down        B.drop out     C.leave off        D.turn away
75.The study led by Dr.Green indicates that peopleC.
A.prefer to hear good news    
B.tend to find out the truth
C.can accept some bad news    
D.have the right to be informed.

2.B
Dear Disney,
Last weekend,the four members of my family spent an enjoyable holiday at the Magic Kingdom-Disneyland.And one event made our visit seem truly magical.
We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain,only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice-cream on the ride.We were so excited that we all forgot ice-cream was not allowed on the ride.
Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do.Then Murphy,one of the staff members,came over.She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride.Gloria said,"Promise?"Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream,and she completely enjoyed the ride.
Sure enough,as we walked out the exit,there was Gloria's new friend with"her"ice-cream.Now you and I both know what happened,because we know that an ice-cream won't last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida.Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride; she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out the exit.Gloria said,"Thank you,"but I'm sure she thought it was the same ice-cream.
We know that someone tried hard to make our visit special.Thanks so much for going above and beyond!
Yours,
Carmen Rivera

1.The right name is important in the business world.All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you'll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyone's mind.
In many countries,successful trade or brand names are protected by law.This is so that other companies cannot make a product that looks like another.People might think that they were buying one product and,in fact,be buying something different.Businesses register a company or a product name with the government.In fact,more than 1,000 product and company names are registered every hour.Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products.A good example of this is in the car industry.Some successful names for cars have powerful associations.The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.
When a U.S.company decides to sell its product in another country,it has to make sure that the product name translates properly.When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China,it looked for the right name.It wanted a name that would do two things.One was to present its image in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name-Coke.It took some efforts before finding the right word-which sounds similar and translates as"happiness in the mouth".Asian company names are not new to the United States.The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful.Finding the right brand name is a big business.Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers.There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing product names.These companies can charge up to $ 100,000 a word for their creations.But it's worth it.Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.
59.Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?D
A.To make companies pay for naming service.
B.To help people choose the best products.
C.To present good images of the products.
D.To prevent products from being copied.
60.What can we learn from the passage?B
A.Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names.
B.Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger sale.
C.The government often does business with naming companies.
D.It is considered necessary for cars to be named after animals.
61.What's the best title for the passage?A
A.The Business of Names
B.The Development of Names
C.The Rules of Naming Business
D.The Methods of Choosing Names.

"No!Leave me alone!"Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later.I forgot to be mad at them and went.When I came home I found a note on the table.My mother put it where I would be sure to see it."Dad has had an accident.Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital".
When I reached the hospital,my mother came out and told me my father's injuries were extensive."Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911,thank God!If he had moved Daddy,there's no telling what might have happened.A broken rib(肋骨)might have pierced (穿透)a lung…."
My mother may have said more,but I didn't hear.I didn't hear anything except those terrible words:Leave me alone.My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more.How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?

"Daddy…I am so sorry…."
"It's okay,sweetheart.I'll be okay."
"No,"I said,"I mean about what I said to you that day.You know,that morning?"
My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly.He looked at me and said,"Sweetheart,I don't remember anything about that day,not before,during or after the accident.I remember kissing you goodnight the night before,though."He managed a weak smile.

19.People who smoke could lose around one third of their daily memory,researchers say.
    A study by a team at Northumbria University showed that smokers lost more of their memory when compared to non-smokers.
    And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as non-smokers.
    The study involved more than seventy 18-to-25-year-olds and included a tour of the university's campus.Those who took part were asked to recall small details,such as a list of songs played at a campus concert and tasks completed at various points-known as real world memory test.Smokers performed badly,remembering just 59 percent of tasks.But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.
    Dr.Tom Heffernan,who leads Northumbria University's Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group,said the findings would be useful in anti-smoking campaigns.He said,"Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many as 45 million in the United States,it's important to understand the effects smoking has on everyday cognitive(認知的)function-of which prospective memory is an excellent example."
"This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has an impact on memory.We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits for the body,but this study also shows how stopping smoking can have knock-on benefits for cognitive functions too.''
    The research will now investigate the effects of passive smoking on memory,while Dr.Heffernan and Dr.Terence O'Neil will look into the effects of third-hand smoking-toxins left on curtains and furniture.
1.What's the main idea of the passage?C
    A.Smoking does harm to health.
    B.Smokers take a tour to the University's campus.
    C.Smoking can affect one's memory.
    D.Smokers are compared to non-smokers.
2.How did those who took part in the study perform when asked to recall small details?A
    A.Smokers did the worst among the participants.
    B.Non-smokers could recall about half of them.
    C.Smokers could recall nothing at all.
    D.Those who gave up smoking did best.
3.According to Dr.Tom Heffernan,the findingsB.
    A.would be really a surprise to the public
    B.would contribute to fighting against smoking
    C.would be used in real world memory test
    D.would be nothing new to the researchers
4.What does the underlined word"impact''most probably mean?D
    A.order    B.impression    C.expression    D.effect
5.What will Dr.Heffernan and Dr Terence O'Neil do?A
    A.Investigate the effects of third-hand smoking.
    B.Do research on how smoking affects passive smokers.
    C.Find ways to persuade people to quit smoking.
    D.Study whether giving up smoking affects memory.

18.Dear Rudyard Kipling,
Father has consistently tried to instill(灌輸) a sense of being a man in me ever since I was very young.When I reached the age of twelve he began taking me to his auto body shop.He told me this tough job would build me into a man of character.But this all changed a year ago when my mother passed away and stumbled upon your poem,If.
My mother was the person who could understand me.If I ever got tired during my work hours at the shop I could call her to come and pick me up.It was my mother who instilled the love of literature and languages in me.My mother spoke six languages fluently and had thousands of books,which still sit in the attic of our house.It was in this"library"of hers that I picked up a book of poetry from a cold metal shelf and found your poem,If.
Because of the death of my mother I felt alone,as if I belonged to no family.The image of a man was completely shattered when I saw   him break down and cry,which looked so pathetic(凄慘的)and"unmanly"compared to his usual stoic(禁欲主義者)and emotionless countenance.Yet I remained silent remembering the golden words:"If you can keep your head when all about you/Are losing theirs and blaming it on you…you'll be a Man,my son!"
If reminded me to remain calm and"keep my head"because I wanted to be a man and wanted to be the one supporting my family.I sacrificed my ability to compete in a winter sport so that I could stay home and cook for my family and clean the house.My father saw this and our relationship has grown much stronger.He finally respected me for who I was and told me he was proud to have a man for his son.Through this poem,I realize that to be a man is not about putting weights on a barbell(杠鈴)but rather putting the weight of others on your back.
Your poem was so much more than just a simple list of guidelines or morals that some see it as; it really changed my life and my relationship with my dad.

41.According to the passage,what kind of person does the author's father expect him to be?A
A.A person who will shoulder responsibilities.
B.A person who knows how to earn a lot of money.
C.A person who knows how to do housework.
D.A person who respects his parents.
42.Who does the underlined word"him"in paragraph 3refer to?C
A.the character in the poem     B.the author's father
C.the author                    D.an unknown person
43.According to the passage,a man in the author's mind would have the following qualities EXCEPTD.
A.responsible           B.calm   
C.caring                D.enthusiastic
44.We can learn from the passage thatA.
A.the poem has helped to improve the relationship between the author and his father
B.the author would not know how to help his family without the poem
C.the author's father must have read the poem as well
D.the author's mother had told him about this poem before
45.The author has written this letter toB.
A.share with Rudyard Kipling his sadness resulting from the death of his mother
B.show his appreciation for the positive influence the poem has brought to him
C.share his opinion on the poem
D.tell Rudyard Kipling how he got the poem.
