“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you” hopes to hear answer “Fine”, even though the person’s friend isn’t fine. Because “How are you” is not really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other way of saying “Hello,” and “Hi”.

Sometimes, people also don’t say just what they mean. For example, when someone asks, “Do you agree?” the other person might be thinking, “No, I don’t agree. I think you are wrong.” But it isn’t very polite to say so, so the other person might say, “I’m not so sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

People also don’t say just what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone end when one person says “I’ve got to go now”. Often , the person who wants to hand up (挂电话)gives an excuse; “Someone’s at the door” “I’ve got to put the things away” “Something is burning on the fire”. The excuse might be real, but it isn’t very polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings.

When they meet each other, talk about an idea, or end a talk, people often don’t say just what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s all part of the games of language!

1. When a person is not going to agree with someone, it would be better to say “______”. A. No, I don’t agree B. I think you’re wrong

3. “______” is a better expression used to end a telephone call. A. I don't want to talk any more. B. Sorry, I want to hang up C. You speak too much.

D. I’ve got to put something away.

4. The question \A. is not always nice B. often has no answer

C. is to say “hello” to your family

D. is not needed when someone is fine

5. The passage tells us that one of the rules of the games of language is “_______” A. always say what you mean B. don’t agree with other people C. be polite

D. never say just what you are thinking

The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of the second of September, 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.

The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's bakery in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.

By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them.

Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.

The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.

After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect(建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow; but he did build more

The Internet is way of life for US college students, with research showing them to be one of the most connected groups.

A recent study by Harris Interactive and 360 Youth found that 93 percent of American college students visit the Internet, and this market is expected to grow from 15.2 million in 2003 to 16.4 million in 2007. That is slow but could be the result of the already high number of college Internet users.

About 88 percent of American college students own a computer, and more than half have broadband（宽带）connections. Furthermore, 67 percent own cell phones and 36 percent use their mobile devices to visit the Internet. Study findings are that 42 percent go online mainly to communicate socially, and 72 percent of college students check emails at least once a day, with 66 percent using at least two email addresses.

The most popular online social activity is forwarding messages to friends or family,

第 24 页共 45 页

with 37 percent of college students saying they do so. The study also looked beyond the Internet surfing（冲浪）habits and into the buying habits of this group, and found them responsible for more than US $ 210 billion in sales last year alone.

College students have learned how to spend their money, with 93 percent saying low prices were important when shopping.

The study also showed that 65 percent make loan payments; 41 percent of freshmen have a credit card; and 79 percent of seniors have a credit card. A significant number of charges on these credit cards are likely to be for entertainment and leisure expenses.

1. College students in the US, as this passage shows,_______. A. waste much time visiting the Internet B. lead an exciting life by using the Internet

What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is \he uses these tools that make him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however,

第 25 页共 45 页

goes one step further: he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his question into a large set of ideas about how the world works.

The scientist’s knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any change file scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the change in the conditions.

This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The

accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigation. Einstein’s ideas are shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.

1. \The author says this to show _________. A. the importance of information

B. the difference between carpenters and ordinary people C. the difference between scientists and ordinary people D. the importance of thinking

2. A sound scientific theory should be one that _________.

A. works under one set of conditions at one time and also works under the same conditions at other times

B. leaves no room for improvement

C. does not allow any change even under different conditions D. can be used for many purposes

3. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Scientists are different from the ordinary people. B. The theory of relativity.

C. Exactness is the secret of science.

D. Exactness and way of using tools is the key to the making of a scientist. 4. From the passage we can conclude that a scientific theory ________. A. can be repeated in testing B. can be true sometimes

C. can be tested out under some conditions D. can be wrong when different tool is used

5. How does a common person become a scientist? A. Knowing how to do things. B. Knowing why things change. C. Knowing what the world is.

D. Knowing how to show others tools.

Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the

parasites (寄生虫)on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together.

Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals(珊瑚)of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants which act as \

products from the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are even prevented from light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.

Fire fighting is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save people’s lives. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone else in the family, such as stairways and emergency exits, but not elevators.

From the lower floors of buildings, escape through windows is possible. Learn the best way to get out from a window with the least chance of serious injury.

The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the fingertips will have a drop of about 6 feet to the ground. It is about the

height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way down than to stay in a burning building.

Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked into the room.

On the second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those which open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement might end in injury. Bushes and trees can help you to have a soft landing.

1. Which of the following should not be used when trying to escape from a fire? A. Windows. B. Elevators. C. Fire exits. D. Stairways.

2. How far from the ground is the second floor window? A. About 12 feet. B. About 6 feet.

C. About the height of an average man. D. Nearly 10 feet.

3. According to the passage, windows are _______ of escaping a fire. A. the only way. B. the best way.

C. safer than any other ways.

第 31 页共 45 页

D. one of the possible ways.

4. The writer suggests that _______. A. breathing in smoke might be harmful

B. smoke will enter the room through an open window C. fresh air can’t reach the second floor window

D. to keep you head low will help you to escape a fire

5. If you are on the second or third floor when a fire breaks out, you’d better get to the roof and _______.

A. drop directly onto the ground

B. firstly drop onto a roof then onto the cement

C. drop from a roof window then onto bushes or trees D. drop onto the cement rather than bushes and grass

Moods, say the experts, are feelings that tend to become fixed, influencing one’s outlook for hours, days or even weeks. That’s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry or simply lonely.

Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out; sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology（药理学）offers a lot of tranquilizers（镇静剂）.What many people don’t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug methods to set you loose from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don’t head for the drug-store but try the following methods.

Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic exercise seems to be the most efficient cure for a bad mood. “If you could keep up the exercise, you’d be in high spirits”, says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.

Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compare favorably to drugs as a mood raiser. Physical exertion such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise, running, cycling, walking, swimming or other repetitive and sustained activities that increase the heart rate, increase blood circulation and improve the body’s use of oxygen. Do some of the activities for at least 20 minutes a session three to five times a week.

1. What is the main subject discussed in the passage? A. How to beat a bad mood. B. How to talk bad moods out. C. How to do physical exercises. D. How to join in aerobic exercises.

2. According to the passage, all of the statements are true EXCEPT that ________. A. climbing is an efficient cure for a bad mood B. moods can have a bad effect on people’s health

第 32 页共 45 页

C. aerobic exercise can help people get rid of bad moods D. pharmacology has provided people with many tranquilizers

3. “Feel out of sorts” in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by “________ ”. A. put things in order B. are in high spirits C. are in a bad mood D. search for tranquilizers

4. It can be inferred from the passage that _______. A. some drugs are more effective than physical exercises

B. a person does not need aerobic exercise if he is in a good mood C. the best way to overcome a bad mood is to talk to oneself D. when in a bad mood, one may not work very efficiently 5. What will not be changed in body when we have exercise? A. Blood circulation. B. Heart rate. C. Intelligence. D. Oxygen use.

Do you have bright ideas? Ideas for inventions that change society or, at least, make life easier for somebody? Perhaps we all do sometimes but we don't often make the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a competition called British Designers for

Tomorrow. The competition encouraged young people to carry out their ideas. There were two groups in the contest: Group One was for school children under 16. And there were eleven prize-winners altogether.

Neil Hunt, one of the prize-winners, was called “Sunshine Superman”. It's important when people study the weather to be able to record sunshine accurately. We need to know how many hours of sunshine we have and how strong it is .Most sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Neil's more accurate and this is very important for research into way of using solar power.

You can do so much with animated cartoon. Look at Simon West's idea for animated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to move as you go nearer to or farther from them. This isn't a new idea. But it is mew to use these pictures on road signs. “We found that people were more likely to see moving signs,” said Simon, now you can really see rocks falling, trains moving, horses running or a car falling over the edge of a cliff. Write a warning!

The ideas in the competition were so inventive that we are surprised that British

industry doesn't ask more school children for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of “pupil power!”.

1. The writer holds that people seldom _______. A. have bright ideas

C. stop asking school children for suggestions

D. pay more attention to school children's inventive power

Tom Brennan was working in a Philadelphia office building when he noticed a black bag .The bag contained a book.

This chance discovery ended a 12-day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasure -- a 120-page diary kept 190 years ago by Deborah Logan ,“a woman who everybody knew in her day ,” James Green, the librarian told the magazine. Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia. It also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington, D.C., in the war of 1812. She describes president James Madison on horseback as “perfectly shaking with fear” during the troubled days. George Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a Frenchman and praised her excellent English.

The adventure of the lost book began September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from England to deliver the diary of his ancestor （祖先）to the Library Company, which he and his wife considered to be the best home for the diary.

Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession “about five minutes” when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person .On returning to his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoore was shocked to realize that he had left it in the taxi.

The first newspapers were written by hand and put up on walls in public place. The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC. In the 700’s the world’s first printed newspaper was published. Europe didn’t have a regularly published newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany.

The first regularly published newspaper in the English language was printed in Amsterdam in 1620. In 1621, an English newspaper was started in London and was published once a week. The first daily English newspaper was the Daily Couran. It came

out in March 1702.

In 1690, Benjamin Harris printed the first American newspaper in Boston. But not long after it was first published, the government stopped the paper. In 1704, John Campbell started The Boston Newsletter, the first newspaper published in the American colonies. By 1760, the colonies had more than thirty daily newspapers. There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States.

There are different ways in which people try to deal with the problem of energy. One way is the greater production of common energy sources, such as coal, oil and gas. The trouble with these sources, however, is that they are not renewable.

Another way is energy conservation(节能), which means using energy more efficiently(有效地). In some very cold countries people build special houses to save

energy. They place materials between the inside and the outside of the walls of the house

第 36 页共 45 页

to keep the cold out and the warmth in. The house is heated by the lights, the body heat of the people and the other equipment in it.

Finally, renewable energy sources are used even though they are often expensive to develop. One form of these is geothermal energy. In certain parts of the world the temperature of the earth increases thirty degrees centigrade with each kilometer down. At six kilometers, therefore, it rises to nearly two hundred degrees. To get the heat, water is pumped(压;抽)down into the rocks and back up to the surface. Heat from the earth is already used in certain countries.

5. At a place where the surface temperature is 15℃, how deep do you have to dig so as to get a temperature of 75℃? A. One km. B. Two km. C. Three km. D. Four km

Today almost everyone knows computers and the Internet. If I ask you “What is the most important in your life?” maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet.”

The first computer was made in 1946. It was very big but it worked slowly. Today computers are getting smaller and smaller. But they work faster and faster. What can computers do? A writer has said, “People can’t live without computers today.”

The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twenty-five years later than
