When you see something you want, you strive to achieve your goal. You are passionate, loyal, and self-confident, and you are often a trendsetter. Your enthusiasm for projects and goals spreads to others who happily follow your lead. When you want something, you may be ruthless about getting it or blind to how your actions affect others. Another blood type, A, is a social, “people” person. You like people and work well with them. You are sensitive, patient, compassionate, and affectionate. You are a good peacekeeper because you want everybody to be happy. In a team situation, you resolve conflicts and keep things on a smooth course. Sometimes type As are stubborn and find it different to relax. They may also find it uncomfortable to do things alone. People with type B blood are usually individualists who like to do things on their own. You may be creative and adaptable, and you usually say exactly what you mean. Also you can adapt to situations, you may not choose to do so because of your strong independent streak. You may prefer working on your own to being part of a team. The final blood type is type AB. If you have AB blood, you are a natural entertainer. You draw people to your because of your charm and easygoing nature. ABs are usually calm and controlled, tactful and fair. On the downside, though, they may take too long to make decisions. And they may procrastinate, putting off tasks until the last minute.56.

Almost not any medicine.(C)Global warming threatens to hold back human progress, and make unachievable all UN targets to reduce poverty, according to some of the worlds leading international and development groups. I n a report published today, Oxfam, Greenpeace, Christian Aid, Friends of the Earth, WWF and 15 other groups say rich governments must immediately address climate change to avoid even “unbearable levels” of worldwide poverty. “Food production, water supplies, public health and peoples living environment are already being damaged,” the report says. “The world must meet its promise to achieve poverty reduction and also deal with climate change.”The report, which draws on UN predictions of the effects of climate change in poor countries over the next 50 years, says poor countries will experience more flooding, declining food production, more disease and the worsening or disappearing of entire ecosystems(生态系统)on which many of the worlds poorest people depend. “Climate change needs to be addressed now. The poor will bear the burden of it. The frontline experience of many of us working in international development indicates that communities are having to fight against more extreme weather conditions.”Climate change will play havoc(浩劫)with agriculture and water supplies and will increase diseases. “By 2025 the proportion of the worlds population living in countries of great water stress will almost double, to 6 billion people. Tropical and sub-tropical areas will be hardest hit those countries already suffering from food shortage”. Poor countries mostly do not need high-tech solutions, but would most benefit from education, research and being shown how to farm better. The report says unchecked global warming, more than wars or political confusion, will displace millions of people and destabilize (不安定) many countries.63. _ should play a leading role in resisting the more extreme weather conditions according to the report.A. International groups B. Poor countries C. Rich countries D. Tropical and sub-tropical countries64. Which of the following is not the effect of global warming according to the report?A. More natural disasters and starvation.B. Increasing the worlds population.C. Making millions of people move to other places.D. Shaking the foundation of a country.65. Which of the following is not true according to the text?A. Poverty and climate change are closely linked.B. More and more people will suffer from the water stress and food shortage.C. What the poor countries need badly is high technology.D. International communities have to take steps to resist the bad climate.66. What is the best title of the passage?A. International Development Brings in Climate Change B. Global Warming Is a Bigger Threat to PoorC. International Groups Work Together to Reduce PovertyD. Worldwide Poverty Shall Be Avoided (D)America is growing older. Fifty - eight years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. To day, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect（影响）American society in many wayseducation, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different societyone in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior（行为） is suitable（合适）at various , ages.A person s age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. Theres no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isnt as strong as it used to be. It doesnt surprise us to hear of a 29 - year - old university president or a 35 - year -old grandmother, or a 70 year - old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age. ”No one says“Act your age” any more. Weve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.67It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America _ .A. has made people feel youngerB. has changed peoples social positionC. has changed peoples understanding of ageD. has slowed down the countrys social development68The underlined word “one” refers to _ .A. a societyB. AmericaC. a placeD. population69“Act your age” means people should _ .A. be active when they are oldB. do the right thing at the right ageC. show respect for their parents young or oldD. take more physical exercise suitable to their age70If a 25 - year - old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _ .A. normalB. wonderfulC. unbelievableD. unreasonable(E)The way people hold to the belief that a fun - filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment （预担的义务）, self - improvement.Ask a bachelor（单身汉） why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three - day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.71According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _ .A. he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC. he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement72Raising children, in the authors opinion is _ .A. a moral dutyB. a thankless jobC. a rewarding taskD. a source of inevitable pain73From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from _ .A. hatredB. misunderstandingC. prejudiceD. ignorance74To understand what true happiness is one must _ .A. have as much fun as possible during ones lifetimeB. make every effort to liberate oneself from painC. put up with pain under all circumstancesD. be able to distinguish happiness from fun75What is the author trying to tell us?A. Happiness often goes hand in hand with painB. One must know how to attain happiness.C. It is important to make commitments.D. It is pain that leads to happiness.第卷（共35分）第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节： 对话填空阅读下面对话，掌握其大意，并根据所给首字母的提示，在标有题号的右边横线上写出一个英语单词的完整、正确形式，使对话通顺。W: Tell me, Jack.
