Once upon a time there was a wise man who used to go to the sea to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down at the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up. As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn?t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean. As he got closer he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing???

The young man paused, looked up and replied, “ Throwing starfishes(海星)in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfishes in the ocean?” “The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don?t throw them in they?ll die”

“But, young man, don?t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfishes all along it. You can?t possibly make a difference!”

The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, and said, “ It made a difference for that one.”There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that gift, we will gain through the strength of our vision the power(力量) to shape the future.

We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our starfish wisely and well, the world will be better. 51.One day, the wise man saw a young man _______. A. dancing along the beach B. walking with a dancer

C. picking up starfish for sale D. trying to save as many starfishes as possible 52. The underlined words “ something very special” refers to ________. A. the gifts from friends B. the strength of making decision C. our own starfish D. the ability to make a difference 53. From the last two paragraphs, we can learn that ________. A. the wise man realized something new and important

B. the wise man thought it was foolish of the young man to throw starfishes in the ocean. C. the young man had the ability to make a difference D. it is necessary for us to save starfish on the beach

Are the British people Europeans? This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians, who tend to think of all white men as Europeans. But the British, when they are in Britain, do not regard themselves as Europeans. The Europeans, to them, are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of the English Channel, who have never learnt how to speak English. Europe is “the Continent”: a place full of interest for English tourists, but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved. Thus, although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe, yet the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very, very insular(具岛国性的). They feel, and in many ways are, different from the rest of Europe, and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them, or even to understand them, in time of need.

Where did the British people come from? This is an extraordinary interesting question, since they are a mixture of many different races, and all these races invaded Britain at various times from Europe. Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century B.C, but there had been at least three invasions before that. The first of these was by a dark-haired Mediterranean race called Iberians. The other two were by Celtic tribes: first the Gaels, whose descendants(后裔) are the modern Scots and Irish, some of whom still speak the Gaelic language; and secondly the Britons, who gave their name to the whole island of Britain. These were the people whom the Romans conquered. The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of civilization, but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers, so the British race survived until the overthrow of the Roman Empire by the “barbarians”, i.e. the numerous Germanic tribes which overran the whole of Western Europe.

55. The purpose of the passage is to _______. A. talk about Europeans

B. discus the origin of British people C. argue for the superiority of British people D. compare the Europeans with Africans and Asians 56. It can be known from the passage that ______. A. most people think white people are Europeans

B. there are many Africans and Asians living in Europe C. white men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and Asians D. the British people think of themselves as Europeans 57. It can be inferred from the passage that ______. A. Europeans are those who are unable to speak English

B. those who invaded Britain came from the other side of the English Channel C. Britain is a place full of interest for those excitable foreigners D. Britain is the source of almost all the wars in Europe 58. Why do the British people feel insular?

A. They are different from those people in the Continent.

B. They sometimes fail to support the continent countries in time of need. C. They are separated geographically from the Continent. D. They are considered difficult to understand.

59. Which of the following is most likely to be discussed after this passage? A. The Germanic tribes which invaded Britain. B. The civilization the Romans gave Britain. C. The Romans who did not settle in Britain.

D. The survival of the British people in the first century B.C.

C

Tomorrow was his girlfriend?s birthday and the young man was having a difficult time deciding on a present for her. She already had more clothes than she knew what to do with them, so he couldn?t get any kind of apparel. She never ate sweets, so candy was out of the question. What then? He had a very special reason for wanting to impress her with just the right gift; tomorrow he was going to make an offer of marriage to her. He finally decided on perfume(香水). All girls liked perfume. That raised another problem, however. What kind did she prefer? He couldn?t ask her because that would ruin the surprise.

At last the young man hit upon a brilliant idea. That afternoon, pretending to take his girlfriend?s fox terrier, little dog for a walk, the young man and the dog went directly to the perfume counter of the town?s biggest department store. Good! There was a large array(长列)of perfume. He beckoned(招呼)a clerk, instructing her to open a large number of bottles and wave the stoppers under the dog?s nose. Nestled in the young man?s arms, the terrier began to be restless and bored as this seemingly

pointless game went on. Then Fritz suddenly became frisky, wiggling in the young man?s arms and barking excitedly, as the clerk waved one stopper under its nose.

“I?ll take that one,” said the young man to the clerk. The price was high, but it was worth it, he thought.

“ My favorite perfume!” said the delighted girl the next evening as she unwrapped the package. “ How did you know?” she asked, dabbing some perfume behind each ear.

“ Intuition(直觉), I guess.” Said the young man, deciding that it wasn?t exactly wrong to tell a lie under the circumstances. One day, after they were married, he would admit that his intuition had really been a little dog named Fritz.

60. Which of the following words best describes the young man in the story? A. Kind-hearted B. Curious C. Creative D. Mean 61. The underlined word “ frisky” (in Paragraph 4) means “_______”> A. lively B. angry C. uneasy D. puzzled

62. According to the story, the birthday present for the girl was actually decided on by_______. A. the young man B. the store clerk C. the man?s intuition D. the dog Fritz 63. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the story? A. The young man wanted to give his girlfriend a pleasant surprise. B. The pet dog Fritz knew what the young man wanted very well. C. The kind of perfume the young man chose was expensive.

D. The young man told a white lie about his final choice of the perfume.

D

Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.

Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes．Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore．At such times， there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or

who became seriously ill.

Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U. S., for example, there is a department which new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell．A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products． 64.The main topic of the passage is_________.

A. conditions in the work place B. the freedom of industries in the past

C. changes in industrial production D. the safety and health of workers and customers 65. It can be inferred from the passage that in the past______. A. workers often got ill because of the poor working conditions B. companies were free to put out any products they wanted to C. many people were killed by dangerous products

D. industries were as careful in management as they are today 66. It is implied in the passage that_________.

A. governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of products B. governments paid little attention to the safety of products C. government officials often did not listen to scientists D. in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments 67. Some years ago safety rules_________.

A. were put forward due to scientists? recommendations B. came into being as a result of the workers? demands

C. were introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriously injured D. were effective enough to protect workers and customers

68.The special departments protect customers and workers in many ways EXCEPT by_________. A. testing new products B. controlling the sale of products C. designing new products D. inspecting work places

“Happy New Year!” Everyone will greet each other with these words as they meet each other

over the next couple of weeks. But it wasn?t always January 1 that marked the New Year.

At least 4,000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians marked the changing of the year.

In Egypt, the year started when the Nile River flooded, enriching farmers? fields. This happened at the end of September.

The Babylonians held a festival in the spring, on March 23, to kick off the next farming cycle.

The Babylonian celebration lasted for 11 days.

The date January 1 was picked by the Roman Emperor Julius Caesar as the change of the year

when he established his own calendar in 46 BC. The month of January originates from the Roman god, Janus. He is pictured with two heads. One head looks forward and the other back. They represent a break between the old and new. The new calendar was in time with the sun and it has been used until the present day.

In Vietnam, the New Year holiday happens in February. They buy fresh flowers and a peach

blossom to put in their house, following the Vietnamese custom.

Thailand has its specific New Year?s date; it?s different from the normal calendar. The Thai New

Year is celebrated on April 13. On this day, Thai people play with water, throwing it on each other. It is intended to bring good luck during the New Year ahead.

In China, the more favorable New Year is usually celebrated in February according to lunar

calendar (阴历). On New Year?s Eve, all family members sit together at table, enjoying lots of auspicious foods such as dumplings, chicken to bring good luck.

I recently surveyed my classmates about their views on the new English textbook. According to the survey, 80% of the students were quite satisfied with it, while 15% disliked it and 5% had no opinion. Students who liked it said the pictures with the texts were very attractive, which greatly aroused their interests in learning. Moreover, the book was very interesting, covering many hot topics and providing lots of cultural knowledge of the world. However, students who disliked it complained there were too many new words and difficult sentences, making the texts difficult to understand. In conclusion, the new English textbook has helped most students improve their English enormously.

Personally, I think the new English textbook is of great value to us students. For one thing, it reflects a new concept of the modern education system with Chinese characteristics. For another, it helps to develop students? overall language skills. (149 words)
