I didnt think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended ,as there are a whole lot of antique shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong.I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,“ Would you like to buy a chair? He looked it over carefully and said,“ Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir? “Twenty pounds,I said. “OK, he said, “Ill give you twenty pounds. “It s got a slightly broken leg,I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done. “I'll buy it,I said. “What do you mean？ Youve just sold it to me,he said. “Yes, I know but Ive changed my mind. I'm sorry, I'll give you twenty -seven pounds for it. “ Your must be crazy, he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair. “ Youre right, I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said,Would you mend this chair for me?I wouldn't have agreed to do it, he said. “We dont do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But Ill mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.45We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer _.A. was rather impoliteB. was warmly receivedC. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chairD. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair46The expression “the penny dropped in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper _.A. changed his mind B. accepted the offerC. saw the writers purposeD. decided to help the writer47How much did the writer pay?A. 5.B. 7.

Bush is expected to issue a directive in the next few weeks. It will give the US Air Force a green light for the development of space weapons, US media reported last week.This would potentially start a new global arms race, some experts have warned.To keep that from happening, last Wednesday the White House explained that it was not considering putting weapons in space. It said it was making a shift in US space policy to allow for protection of satellites.But some defense analysts and arms control advocates argue that the policy will pave the way for the US to put both defensive and offensive weapons in space.“No one should be fooled, said Theresa Hitchens, an American weapons expert.The US is now restricted by a 1996 directive signed by President Bill Clinton. Plans for space weapons were vetoed by the Clinton cabinet. The directive emphasized the peaceful use of space , in agreement with almost unanimous global opinion.The US military has placed importance on space and has sent up numberous satellites for troop communications and to provide intelligence and data to guide bombs to their targets.The US Air Force wants to develop space- based weapons that could strike targets anywhere in the world within 90 minutes of receiving the order to open fire.These new weapons under development cover a wide range. They include hunter- killer satellites and orbiting weapons. And they use lasers, radio waves, or even dense metal tubes, known as “ Rods from God, dropped from space to do the damage.There are many barriers to the setting up of this kind of program, experts say.First is the coast. It is estimated that the budget may be US $220 billion to US $ 1 trillion .The technical difficulties of developing reliable space weapons are also a problem.And, the program will draw strong criticism from around the world. Experts worry about starting a space arms race.53.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?AUS Military Plans BThe Global Arms Race CA Comparison between Two PresidentsDPresident George W. Bush and the World Peace54.According to this passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. President George W. Bush supports space weapon development. B. The space weapon program will threaten world peace C. Clinton government was poorer than Bush government. D. The US space weapon project is very expensive.55.After reading this passage, it can be inferred that “_ “. A. George W. Bushs directive to be issued will be against global opinions B. The White House is right in explaining that US new space policy aims to protect satellites C.US government has little difficulty in developing new space weapons D. President George W. Bush and Bill Clinton share a lot in common56.The authors attitude towards the coming space weapon development is _. A. optimistic B. critical C. excited D. indifferentEThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend(or hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.57The phrase“sour the pleasure of society most nearly means_.A. have a good taste with social life B. make others unhappyC. tend to scold others openly D. enjoy the pleasure of life58We can conclude from the passage that_.A. people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessB. such unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeC. we should pity all such unhappy peopleD. unhappy people can not understand happy persons59If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should _.A. prevent any communication with themB. show no respect and politeness to themC. persuade them to recognize the bad effectsD. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes60In this passage, the writer mainly_.A. describes two types of people B. laughs at the unhappy peopleC. suggests ways to help them unhappyD. tells people how to be happy in life 第二节 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Peter: 61Monica: Yes, but not here62 I dont like eating standing upPeter: There is another restaurant over thereMonica: 63Only the rich can afford to eat thereBesides, 64 Im not going into a restaurant that doesnt have a menuPeter: We just passed a café that does snakesMonica: 65Peter: Youre one of those people that are never satisfied, arent you?AShall we have something to eat?BDo you come here very often?CI dont like café without tablesDIt is expensive and charges very high pricesEOh, I dont like the look of itFIt serves very good coffeeGI cant see a menuIII 写作共三节，总分值55分第一节 单词拼写共10小题；每题1分，总分值10根据以下句子及所给单词的首字母或汉语注释，在句子右边的横线上写出该单的正确形式。66You may use_ _ _ (面部)expressions, hands movements and anything to get your meaning across in learning a new language67With the teacher 's _ _(解释),they came to understand the difficult problem68After a good rest, her health is _ _渐渐地improving 69Chinese characters are the mo
