A

Mr. Peter Johnson ,aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape route—through the boot（行李箱）.

Mr．Johnson‘s car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank．―Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,‖ Mr．Johnson said．―I couldn‘t force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in.‖

Mr．Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot．Then he began his struggle to escape．

Later he said, ―It was really a half penny that saved my life．It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot．I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.‖

It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot．Then Mr．Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock．Fifteen minutes passed by． ―It was the only chance I had．Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in．I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up.‖

His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), Mr．Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmer‘s wife, Mrs．Lucy Bates．Huddled in a blanket, he said, ―That thirty minutes seemed like hours.‖ Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night．The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch． 56．What is the best title for this newspaper article? A．The Story of Mr．Johnson, A Sweet Salesman B．Car Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape Route

C．Driver Escapes Through Car Boot

D．The Driver Survived A Terrible Car Accident

57．Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr．Johnson? A．The hammer． B．The coin． C．The screw． D．The horn． 58．Which statement is true according to the passage?

A．Mr．Johnson‘s car stood on its boot as it fell down．

B．Mr．Johnson could not escape from the door because it was full of sweet jam． C．Mr．Johnson's car accident was partly due to the slippery road．

D．Mr．Johnson struggled in the pouring mud as he unscrewed the back seat

59．\（Paragraph 5） means that ____． A．Luckily the door was torn away in the end

B．At last the wrench went broken

C．The lock came open after all his efforts D．The chance was lost at the last minute

- 5 -

60．It may be inferred from the passage that __

A．the ditch was along a quiet country road B．the accident happened on a clear warm day

C．the police helped Mr．Johnson get out of the ditch D．Mr．Johnson had a tender wife and was well attended

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day．―I was a clothes

addict,‖ he jokes．―I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled．‖ Today David wears casual clothes – khaki pants and sports shirt – to the office．He hardly ever wears a necktie．―I‘m working harder than ever,‖ David says, ―and I need to feel comfortable．‖

More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work．In the United States．The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual．In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday （but only on Friday）．This became known as ―dress-down Friday‖ of ―casual Friday．‖ ―What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing．‖ said business consultant Maisly Jones．

Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it‘s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code．―A lot of young people don‘t want to dress up for work,‖ says the owner of a software company, ―so it‘s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code．‖ Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes．In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale．Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productivity．Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money．―Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,‖ one person said．―For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes．‖

61．David Smith refers to himself as having been ―a clothes addict,‖ because ． A．he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt B．he couldn‘t stand a clean appearance

C．he wanted his clothes to look neat all the time D．he didn‘t want to spend much money on clothes

62．David Smith wears casual clothes now, because ．

A．they make him feel at ease when working B．he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes C．he looks handsome in casual clothes

D．he no longer works for any company

63．According to this passage, which of the following statements is false?

A．Many employees don‘t like a conservative dress code． B．comfortable clothes make employees more productive．

C．A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees． D．All the employers in the U．S．are for casual office wear． 64．According to this passage, which of the following statements is true

- 6 -

A．Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago．

B．Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s． C．―Dress-down Friday‖ was first given as a favor from employers． D．Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people．

56．In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned except ．

A．saving employees‘ money

B．making employees more attractive C．improving employees‘ motivation D．making employees happier

C

Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you‘re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you‘re holding a large glass of iced tea．The physical sensation（感觉） of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A．Bargh． Psychologists have known that one person‘s perception（感知）of another‘s ―warmth‖ is a powerful determiner in social relationships．Judging someone to be either ―warm‖ or ―cold‖ is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a ―cold‖ person may be more capable．Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies‘ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness．Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth ―mother‖ rather than one made of wire, even when the wire ―mother‖ carried a food bottle．Harlow‘s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills． Feelings of ―warmth‖ and ―coldness‖ in social judgments appear to be universal．Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as ―warm‖ or ―cold‖ is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries．

To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students．A research assistant who was unaware of the study‘s hypotheses (假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back．After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of ―Person A‖ based on a particular description．Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink． ―We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,‖ says Bargh． 66．According to Paragraph 1, a person‘s emotion may be affected by ______．

A．the visitors to his office

B．the psychology lessons he has C．his physical feeling of coldness D．the things he has bought online

67．The author mentions Harlow‘s experiment to show that ______． A．adults should develop social skills B．babies need warm physical contact

- 7 -

C．caregivers should be healthy adults

D．monkeys have social relationships

68．In Bargh‘s experiment, the students were asked to ______． A．evaluate someone‘s personality B．write down their hypothese

C．fill out a personal information form D．hold coffee and cold drink alternatively

69．We can infer from the passage that ______． A．abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences

B．feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide C．physical temperature affects how we see others D．capable persons are often cold to others

70．What would be the best title for the passage? A．Drinking for Better Social Relationships．

B．Experiments of Personality Evaluation． C．Developing Better Drinking Habits D．Physical Sensations and Emotions．

第Ⅱ卷（共45分）

第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分45分）

第一节 阅读表达（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分）

阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

Compared to people with bad attitudes, people are less likely to suffer from colds．It's possible that being positive helps the body fight illnesses．

In a previous study, people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop coughs and other cold symptoms．People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to mention symptoms to their doctors, even when medical tests detected those symptoms．

Those findings were interesting, but they didn't prove that a person's attitude affects whether he or she gets sick．Instead, it was still possible that a person's underlying personality is what matters． Evidence suggests, for instance, that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic, with high self-esteem and a sense of control over life．This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, ultimately decides our chances of catching colds．

To figure out which mattered more, personality or emotions, the researchers interviewed 193 healthy adults．The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected．Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous fortnight．

Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy noses．On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive．

Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are. For now, it can‘t hurt to look on the bright side more often than not! 76．What‘s the main idea of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)
