If I went to a friends house and found him not at home, his mother might say, “Oh, hes out in the woods,” with a tone (语气) of airy acceptance. Its similar to the tone people sometimes use nowadays to tell me that someone Im looking for is on the golf course or at the gym, or even “away from his desk”. For us ten-year-olds, “being out in the woods” was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a while. We sometimes told ourselves that what we were doing in the woods was exploring. Exploring was a more popular idea back then than it is today. History seemed to be mostly about explorers. Our explorations, though, seemed to have less system than the historic kind: something usually came up along the way. Say we stayed in the woods, throwing rocks, shooting frogs, picking blackberries, digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Italian burial mound(古坟). Often we got “lost” and had to climb a tree to find out where we were. If you read a story in which someone does that successfully, be skeptical: the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight, and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees. There were four or five trees that we visited regularly - tall beeches, easy to climb and fortable to sit in. It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end. By then some of us has reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence（青春期). In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring. We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we were really rather big to be up in a tree. Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria.36. The author and his friends were often out in the woods to _.A. avoid doing their homeworkB. spend their free timeC. play golf and other sportsD. keep away from their parents37. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. The activities in the woods were well planned.B. Human history is not the result of exploration.C. The author explored in the woods aimlessly.D. Exploration should be a systematic activity.38. The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _.A. serious B. calm C. doubtful D. optimistic B Recently, a case of lifeboat ethics(伦理) occurred. On Aug.4, Graham and Sheryl Anley, while boating off the coast of South Africa, hit a rock. As the boat threatened to sink, the husband got off, but his wife was trapped in the boat. Instead of freeing his wife and getting her to shore, Graham grabbed Rosie, their pet dog. With Rosie safe and sound, Graham returned for Sheryl. All are doing fine. Its a great story, but it doesnt strike me as especially newsworthy. News is supposed to be about something fairly unique, and recent research suggests that, in the right circumstances, lots of people also would have grabbed their Rosie first. We have strange relationships with our pets. We look after our pets with great love and better health care than billions of people receive. We speak to pets with the same high-pitched voices that we use for babies. As an extreme example of our feelings about pets, the Nazis had strict laws that guaranteed the kind treatment of the pets of Jews being shipped to death camps. A recent paper by George Regents University demonstrates this human involvement with pets to an astonishing extent. Participants in the study were told a situation in which a bus is out of control, bearing down on a dog and a human. Which do you save? With responses from more than 500 people, the answer was that it depended what kind of human and what kind of dog. Everyone would save a brother, grandparent or close friend rather than a strange dog. But when people considered their own dog VS people less connected with them - a distant cousin or a hometown stranger - votes in favor of saving the dog came rolling in. And an astonishing 40% of respondents, including 46% women, voted to save their dog over a foreign tourist. What does a finding like this mean? First, that your odds(胜算) arent so good if you find yourself in another country with a bus bearing down on you and a cute dog. But it also points to something deeper: our unprecedented(史无前例的) attitude towards animals, which got its start with the birth of kind-hearted societies in the 19th century. We prison people who abuse animals, put ourselves in harms way in boats between whales and whalers and show sympathy to Bambi and his mother. We can extend sympathy to an animal and feel its pain like no other species. But lets not be too proud of ourselves. As this study and too much of our history show, were pretty selective about how we extend our kindness to other human beings.39. What is the function of the first paragraph?A. To create a relaxing mood for reader.B. To raise problems that will be solved later.C. To present the theme of this essay straight.D. To lead in the main topic of this essay.40. The author mentions Nazi laws in the third paragraph _.A. to illustrate the strange relationship between human and petsB. as an example to persuade people not to love petsC. to show how cruel the Nazis were to the JewsD. as an example to display the kindness of the Nazis41. Which of the following is true according to the article?A. Most people surveyed choose to save their own dog rather than a human.B. Human beings are more and more concerned with animals nowadays.C. The story of the Anleys and their dog was too unique to be newsworthy.D. It was in the 19th century that human beings started to love their pets.42. What does the author mainly argue for?A. We should be selective when showing attitude towards other human beings.B. It is kind of human beings to extend kindness to animals.C. Pets are of great significance to us human beings.D. We should rethink about our attitude towards animals and mankind. C Barcodes (条形码) arent given much thought by the majority of consumers, but these codes were fairly recently applied in a working fashion in 1970. A small food store owner decided one day that keeping records of the inventory (存货) of his stock and the associated prices were an extremely laborious process, and so, in 1948, he contacted The Drexel Institute of Technology in a bid(投标) to work towards a solution. Bernard Silver rose to the challenge and set out to study the problem, and began working on a solution involving an automatic way of keeping track of items that had been sold. Silver and a group of students from the institute realized their answer in the form of ultraviolet light (紫外线), ink and a scanner. The system worked at first, but possessed some negatives. It was unbelievably costly to carry out on a large scale and the system was also unstable. If the invention was to bee monplace (寻常的事) in grocery stores, these two problems had to be solved. The patent for the barcode system was filed（申请）by Silver and one of his students, Woodland. The patent was not granted immediately; in fact it took three years for the patent agency to admit their invention patent for the barcode, occurring on 7th October, 1952. Despite the patent being issued, the system was still not weled by the majority of store owners. It was not until 1966 that the system began moving its way into more and more grocery stores. This system was soon criticised, as there was no central mechanism for controlling uniformly （一致的）coded items. In 1970, Logicorn developed the Universal Grocery Products Identification code (UGPIC), soon shortened to Universal Identification Number (UPC). It was Marshs superstore, in Troy, which was the very first store to install this plex barcode reading system, and its popularity has soared (升温) ever since, and is obviously now monplace in all types of stores worldwide.43. What is stressed in the second paragraph?A. The function of ultraviolet light, ink and a scanner.B. The heavy work of store owners. C. Bernard Silvers education background.D. The rise of barcodes. 44. Which of the following was NOT a disadvantage of Silvers system?A. It lacked a central mechanism.B. The system was not stable. C. It was a laborious process.D. It was expensive to be applied on a large scale.45. What is the purpose of the text?A. To provide information about the development of barcodes.B. To praise scientists efforts in making peoples lives easier.C. To tell people that failure is the mother of success.D. To describe shop owners opinions of barcodes.第三节. 七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs. 46 Some people are pulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing puter games. 47_ Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more every day, but its more than a mon hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they dont need. Even though they dont have enough money, they buy everything they want. The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isnt a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. 48_ Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can bring out problems. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. 49_ They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they dont have. 50 .A. However, in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions.B. Once you are addicted to alcohol or drugs, it is difficult to get rid of them.C. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.D. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.E. It can also cause financial problems.F. Over the years, shopping has bee a very mon activity.G. People addicted to puter games consider the games as great ways to amuse themselves.第三部分. 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Charles RDrew was a medical student at Columbia University in New YorkBefore he graduated, he wrote an article 51 blood bank, that is, the storing of bloodUp till then, a lot of people had died from loss of blood 52 there was no blood bankWhen the United States entered the Second World War, it became 53 to set up blood banksDr Drew became 54 of the red crosss first blood bankWhen the Red Cross 55 blood banks to collect and store blood for men 56 in battle, black American gave blood along with the whitesAt 57 their blood was not acceptedLater blood from the blacks was 58 but was stored in a 59 place from “white” bloodAlthough the best doctors 60 that there was 61 difference at all between the blood of blacks and whites, the Red Cross, with the support of the government, 62 to separate black blood from white bloodAfter the war, Dr Drew was 63 from Washington with three other doctors to attend a medical meeting in a southern stateIn northern Carolina their car went 64 a ditch（深沟）and Dr Drew was 65 hurtHe had lost 66 blood by the time a passing car took him to the 67 hospitalBut they were stopped at the gate of the hospital“ 68 him to the hospital for blacks” No matter 69 they said, they could not get into the hospitalThey had to take him to the 70 hospital, but on the way Dr Drew died because he had lost too much blood51Aof Bin Cfor Don 52Athough Bbecause Cif Dand53Apossible Bimpossible Cimportant Dnecessary54Ahead Bvisitor Creceiver Dsupporter55Astarted Bexpected Cpromised Dforbade56Adied Bwounded Ckilled Dfighting57Amost Bleast Cfirst Dlast58Areceived Baccepted Clost Dfound59Aseparate Bcool Chot Dgood60Ainsisted Binvented Cdiscovered Dregretted61Alittle Bmuch Csome Dno62Abegan Bcontinued Cstopped Drefused63Adriving Bwalking Carriving Dtraveling64Afrom Binto Calong Doff65Ahardly Bnearly Cbadly Dnot66Asome Blittle Cmuch Dall67Abiggest Bmost modern Ccheapest Dnearest68ABring BTake CSend for DFind69Ahow Bwhere Cwhat Dwho70Afarthest Bbetter Ccolored Dsame第二节 语法填空（共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。A:  Look at the photos of the UFOs on TV! Do you think _71_ are real?  B: I really dont know, my dear brother. You know, UFOs mean Unidentified Flying Objects.A: But therere many people in the world    72    said they had seen the UFOs. B: Thats true,   73    no one really knows what they really    74    (be). A:     75    , have you ever heard the news that Justin has disappeared?  B: Yes, the police    76    (question) Justins sister, who said that Justin was taken away by aliens.A: Why did she think so?  B: Because she said she saw a spaceship    77     (fly) towards Justins room and heard him cry.   78        the spaceship disappeared. A: Do the police believe her story?  B: They havent ruled out the possibility that Justin was taken away by aliens, but they are also  looking into other     79    (possible). A: I wish Justin could return home soon.  B: So    8
