  A

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

  Mr. Johnson's car had ended up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after he lost proper control on ice and hit a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johnson said. “I couldn't force the doors open 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 (笛) 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 (扳手) 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 climbed up clear as the car filled up.”

  His hands and arms cut and bruised, Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby. 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.

  21.Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr. Johnson?

  A.The hammer.       B.The coin.

  C.The seat. D.The horn.

  22.We know from the passage that ________.

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

  B.Mr. Johnson's car accident was partly due to the slippery road

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

  D.Mr. Johnson could not escape from the door because it was full of sweet jam

  23.“Finally it gave” in Paragraph 5 means that ________.

  A.at last the wrench went broken

  B.the chance was lost at the last minute

  C.the lock came open after all his efforts

  D.luckily the door was torn away in the end

  24.What is the best title for this newspaper article?

  A.Driver Escapes through Car Boot

  B.The Story of Mr. Johnson, a Sweet Salesman

  C.The Driver Survived a Terrible Car Accident

  D.Car Boot Can Serve as the Best Escape Route

  B

  Talking plants might sound like characters in a fairy tale. But recent scientific studies have shown that plants communicate with each other and with other living things in a surprising number of ways. To understand them, scientists say, we just have to learn their language. Farmers are especially interested in what plants have to say.

  “Plants are able to communicate with all sorts of organisms (有机体). They can communicate with giant bacteria, with other plants and with insects. They do this chemically,” said Cahill, an Ecology Professor of the University of Alberta in Canada.

  Plant scientists are just beginning to understand this chemical “language”. Cahill says studies have shown, for example, that plants can evaluate conditions in their immediate environment and take appropriate actions. Plants have an ability, for example, to signal pain or discomfort caused by anything from temperature extremes to an insect attack. Jack Schultz, a professor of chemical ecology at the University of Missouri, says when a plant senses that it's being eaten, it cannot walk away from trouble; on the contrary, it will release a chemical vapor that alerts other plants nearby.

  “Their language is a chemical language, and it involves chemicals that move through the air that are easy to be changeable, and most of all are smells that we are familiar with,” Schultz explained.

  “All plants responded to the attack by changing their chemistry to defend themselves,” Schultz recalled. “But we were quite surprised to find that nearby plants also changed their chemistry to defend themselves, even though they were not part of the experiment.”

  Studies have also shown that plants under attack release pleasant chemicals. Those chemicals attract friendly insects that attack the pests eating the plant.

  In the end, plants' ability to communicate their needs—and our ability to understand them—could help farmers reduce the use of poisonous chemicals, cut operating costs and limit damage to the environment.

  25.The recent scientific studies have shown that plants can ______.

  A.communicate with other living things in a chemical way

  B.hardly react to any sudden change in temperature

  C.use a very special chemica1 language which is familiar to us

  D.respond to the attack by giving off poisonous chemicals

  26.When being eaten by an insect, the plant will ________.

  A.walk away from trouble

  B.change its chemistry to kill the insect

  C.release a chemical vapor to “ask” other plants for help

  D.give off nice chemicals to attract friendly insects killing the pest

  27.The underlined word “alert” most probably means “______”.

  A.warn          B.protect

  C.threaten D.allow

  28.Which would be the best title for the passage?

  A.Communication between Plants

  B.A Chemical “Language”

  C.Plants Can Talk

  D.How Plants Protect Themselves

  C

  For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.

  As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historicists. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “The Old Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.

  However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub's landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.

  That's how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩 ) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned (禁止) smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.

  This decline(衰退) is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 p.m. Previously, with 11 p.m. as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes long­term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.

  In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs”, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.

  29.The passage mainly tells us something about ________.

  A.the long history of British pubs

  B.the decline of British pubs

  C.the past and present of British pubs

  D.the importance of British pubs

  30.Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?

  A.The credit crunch.     B.The present closing time.

  C.The ban of smoking. D.Having no spare money.

  31.We can infer from the passage that ________.

  A.binge drinking means drinking less beer

  B.British people used to like drinking slowly

  C.closing the pubs early will reduce social problems

  D.British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking

  32.We can see from the last Paragraph that the author ______.

  A.holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubs

  B.is against the admission of too many women to the pubs

  C.thinks that women in the pubs will cause less social problems

  D.thinks that British pubs should offer everything you need

  D

  To the Editor,

  Re Why a Fallen Angel Is a Centerfold (Sunday Review, Nov. 6): I first met Lindsay Lohan in 1997 when she was 11 and I was the casting director (挑选演员的人) of the film The Parent Trap. I was struck by her talent, fresh charm and innocence the moment I caught sight of her. She was, and remains, a gifted actress and a good human being.

  It is not for me to judge Ms Lohan's choices, or whether fame has been less than kind to her, but I have been greatly saddened by the way the media have chosen, with all gloves off and seemingly going with what could please them, to record her efforts and failures. She is a sentient (能感知事物的) human being, not a thing, not a product, not anything else to be sold.

  Charles McGrath makes several attractive points in his news analysis about the public demand which is impossible to satisfy, in a 24/7 news cycle forever changed by the Internet, to gossip about, and give nearly complete access to, celebrity or famous persons' lives. Perhaps people do feel better knowing that wealth and fame do not lead to a perfect life for everyone. Perhaps we admire famous people only to reject them without any pity or mercy when their behavior disappoints us.

  I find it ironic (讽刺的) that Ms Lohan's decision to pose for Playboy for a monetary reward is considered to be morally questionable, while journalists and photographers gain profit by writing about and capturing images of her and other famous people.

  Perhaps when reporting on and reading about famous people who have lost their way, we will remember that those people are also very human people who, like us, make mistakes, endure misfortune and have a chance—in spite of media coverage—to begin a completely new life tomorrow.

  33.What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?

  A.Lindsay Lohan became an actress at the age of 11.

  B.Lindsay Lohan is generally a good person.

  C.Lindsay Lohan used to be a good woman.

  D.Lindsay Lohan once starred in The Parent Trap.

  34.This letter was written mainly to tell the editor that ________.

  A.the public should bear famous people's mistakes

  B.the public should be especially strict with famous people

  C.the media shouldn't only satisfy the public's demands

  D.nobody can get both wealth and fame at the same time

  35.What can we infer from the passage?

  A.Why a Fallen Angel Is a Centerfold was not received well by the public.

  B.Charles McGrath believes wealth and fame can't give a perfect life to anyone.

  C.Many people as well as the media show much mercy to Lindsay Lohan.

  D.Charles McGrath is the author of Why a Fallen Angel Is a Centerfold.

  第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)

  根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

  If you're looking for a challenging situation to practice your English, pick up the phone. Not being able to see the other person and the body language can make the chatting difficult. __36__ Here are some tips to guide you through an average phone conversation in English.

  1.Greetings

  Every phone call should begin with a polite greeting such as “Hi, how've you been?” or “Nice to hear from you”. Even if you're calling a business contact for a specific purpose, it'd be rude to jump right into business. __37__

  2.Getting to the point

  There always comes the point where you want to move on from friendly chatting and get down to business. What should you do in this situation? __38__ However, if you are waiting to find out why someone called you, you can guide the conversation by saying “So what can I do for you?”

  3.Interrupting without offence

  Sometimes you may happen to be speaking with a very talkative person. __39__ Keep in mind when you'd like to interrupt, be sure to do it politely. For example, begin with “I'd like to say something here”.

  4.Closing the call

  This can be the trickiest part of the conversation! It may be the time to offer good wishes if it's appropriate. __40__ Sometimes it's easiest to just say you enjoyed speaking to the other person. Also remember cleverly saying the word well at the beginning of a sentence can indicate you're ready to end the conversation.

  A.Use the phrase “I'm just calling to...” to change to the topic at hand.

  B.Additionally, you may want to confirm any plans you've made.

  C.You should make a little small talk at the beginning.

  D.You'd better greet him or her in a friendly way.

  E.So it may be difficult to get a word in.

  F.Practice English through phone calls.

  G.Never fear, though!

  On April 16th, we went sightseeing that we have long expected. We left at 6:30 on our school bus and arrived Beihai Park three hours later. Soon we jumped on the bus and organized a hill­climbing contest. Everyone tried their best to reach the top of the hill as faster as they could. Then we rowed small boats in the lake. By 12 o'clock we had a quickly lunch in order to save time. It was the afternoon activities that made us exciting. We visited the Sea World and watched the dolphin's show. We couldn't help taking lots of wonderful photo. We enjoyed ourselves very much that we didn't realize it was the time to return until 5:00 pm.
