Arthur Miller （1915﹣2005）is universally recognized as one of the greatest
dramatists of the 20th century．Miller's father had moved to the USA from Austria
Hungary，drawn like so many others by the"Great American
Dream"．However，he experienced severe financial hardship when his family
business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early l930s．
Miller's most famous play，Death of a Salesman，is a powerful attack on the
American system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on
money and social status as indicators of worth．In Willy Loman，the hero of the
play，we see a man who has got into trouble with his worth．Willy is"burnt
out"and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment：if he can't do
the work，then he is no good to his employer，the Wagner Company，and he
must go．Willy is painfully aware of this，and at loss as to what to do with his lack
of success．He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the
end．
When it was first staged in 1949，the play was greeted with enthusiastic
第6页 | 共42页reviews，and it won the Tony Award for Best Play，the New York Drama
Critics′Circle Award，and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama．It was the first play to win all
three of these major awards．

Salesman on Broadway．

in doing business

61．（10分）B
Tim Richter and his wife，Linda，had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo，New
York﹣﹣he in computers，she in special education．"Teaching means everything
第7页 | 共42页to us，"Tim would say．In April1998，he learned he would need a heart
operation．It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's
purpose．
Not long after the surgery，Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library，a
program started by Dolly Parton's foundation （基金会） that mailed a book every
month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of
Sevier，Tennessee．"I thought，maybe Linda and I could do something like this
when we retire，"Tim recalls．He placed the brochure on his desk，"as a
reminder．"
Five years later，now retired and with that brochure still on the desk，Tim clicked
on imagination library．com．The program had been opened up to partners who
could take advantage of book and postage discounts．
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters．Rather than sign up
online，they went to Dollywood for a look﹣see．"We didn't want to give the
children rubbish，"says Linda．The books﹣reviewed each year by
teachers，literacy specialists and Dollywood board members﹣included classics
such as Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney's
Llama Llama series．
Satisfied，the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work．Since
2004，they have shipped more than 12，200books to preschoolers in their in their
area．Megan Williams，a mother of four，is more than appreciative："This
program introduces us to books I've never heard of．"
The Richters spend about＄400a month sending books to 200children．"Some
people sit there and wait to die，"says Tim．"Others get as busy as they can in the
time they have left．"
61．What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life？
A．His health problem B．His love for teaching C．The influence of his wife
D．The news from the Web
62．What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library？
第8页 | 共42页A．Give out brochures．B．Do something similar．

63．According to the text，Dollly Parton is ．
A．a well﹣known surgeon B．a mother of a four﹣year﹣old
C．a singer born in Tennessee D．a computer programmer
64．Why did the Richters go to Dollywood？
A．To avoid signing up online．B．To meet Dollywood board members．
C．To make sure the books were the newest．D．To see if the books were of good
quality．
65．What can we learn from Tim's words in the last paragraph？
A．He needs more money to help the children．B．He wonders why some people
are so busy．
C．He tries to save those waiting to die．D．He considers his efforts worthwhile．
66．（10分）C
Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her
21﹣year﹣old twin sons：a combination of savings，income，scholarships，and a
modest amount of borrowing．Then her husband lost his job，and the plan fell
apart．
"I have two kids in college，and I want to say'come home，'but at the same time I
want to provide them with a good education，"says Jacobs．
The Jacobs family did work out a solution：They asked and received more aid
from the schools，and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount
through the federal loan （贷款） program．They will each graduate with
$20，000 of debt，but at least they will be able to finish school．
With unemployment rising，financial aid administrators expect to hear more
families like the Jacobs．
More students are applying for aid，and more families expect to need student
loans．College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid
money to go around．
第9页 | 共42页At the same time，tuition （学费） continues to rise．A report from the
National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and
fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007，while average family income rose just
147%．Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade．
"If we go on this way for another 25years，we won't have an affordable system of
higher education，"says Patrick M．Callan，president of the center．"The middle
class families have been financing it through debt．They will send kids to college
whatever it takes，even if that means a huge amount of debt．"
Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies
decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making
them．The good news，however，is that federal loans account for about three
quarters of student borrowing，and the government says that money will flow
uninterrupted．
66．According to Paragraph 1，why did the plan of Jacobs family fail？
A．The twins wasted too much money
B．The father was out of work
C．Their saving ran out
D．The family fell apart
67．How did the Jacobs manage to solve their problem？
A．They asked their kids to come home．
B．They borrowed 20，000 from the school．
C．They encouraged their twin sons to do part﹣time jobs．
D．They got help from the school and the federal government．
68．Financial aid administrators believe that ．
A．more families will face the same problem as the Jacobses
B．the government will receive more letters of complaint
C．college tuition fees will double soon D．America's unemployment will fall
69．What can we learn about the middle class families from the text？
A．They blamed the government for the tuition increase．
第10页 | 共42页B．Their income remained steady in the last decade．
C．They will try their best to send kids to college．
D．Their debts will be paid off within 25years．
70．According to the last paragraph，the government will ．
A．provide most students will scholarships B．dismiss some financial aid
administrators
C．stop the companies from making student loans D．go on providing financial
support for college students．
71．D
Since the 1970s，scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with
computers．Brain﹣computer interface （BCI） technology could help people with
disabilities send commands to machines．
Recently，two researchers，Jose Milan and Michele Tavella from the Federal
Polytechnic school in Lausanne，Switzerland，demonstrated（展示）a small
robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts．
In the laboratory，Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his
left or right band．He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with
his thoughts．
"Our brain has billions of nerve ceils．These send signals through the spinal cord
（脊髓）to the muscles to give us the ability to move．But spinal cord injuries or
other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the
muscles，"Tavella says．"Our system allows disabled people to communicate with
external world and also to control devices．"
The researchers designed a special cap for the user．This head cover picks up the
signals from the scalp（头皮） and sends them to a computer．The computer
interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair．The wheelchair
also has two cameras that identify objects in its path．They help the computer react
to commands from the brain．
Prof．Milan，the team leader，says scientists keep improving the computer
第11页 | 共42页software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands．"The
practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in
two categories：communication，and controlling devices．One example is this
wheelchair．"
He says his team has set two goals．One is testing with real patients，so as to prove
that this is a technology they can benefit from．And the other is to guarantee that
they can use the technology over long periods of time．
71．BCI is a technology that can ．
A．help to update computer systems B．link the human brain with computers
C．help the disabled to recover D．control a person's thoughts
72．How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory？
A．By controlling his muscles．B．By talking to the machine．C．By moving his
hand．D．By using his mind．
73．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5？
A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair B．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair D．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
74．The team will test with real patients to ．
A．make profits from them B．prove the technology useful to them
C．make them live longer D．learn about their physical condition
75．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？
A．Switzerland，the BCI Research Center
B．New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disable
D．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries．
第四部分书面表达（共两节，满分15分）第一节阅读表达（第76题2分，77、7
8、80题每题3分，第79题4分，满分l5分）
76．（15分）阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上
（请注意问题后的词数要求）．
第12页 | 共42页[1]Do you spend over an hour each day texting messages to your friends？Do you
frequently ignore work，study，and other activities to check your phone for
messages？Are you anxious and restless if you are separated from your mobile
phone？Do you hardly ever use your phone to talk any more，and do your thumbs
hurt from texting too much？
[2]If ，then it is very possible that you are a textaholic．A textaholic can be
defined as someone who is addicted to sending and receiving messages．The main
symptoms are a strong desire to text messages，which takes precedence
（优先）over everything else，and bad moods，low spirits and a lack of
self﹣confidence if messages fail to come in．The root of the problem，as with
many addictions，is the desire to escape from emotional difficulties such as
stress，anxiety and relationship problems．Experts warn that text addiction is likely
to become the most common form of addiction in the future，especially among the
young．
[3]So what can you do if you think you may be a textaholic？The key is to get your
life back in balance．Make sure you resist the urge to answer every message you
receive，and consider leaving your mobile phone behind occasionally when you go
out．Most importantly，make a point of spending quality time with friends and
family，and make time to re﹣learn the art of face﹣to﹣face conversation instead
of conducting your relationships by means of text messages．Not only will you save
time and money，but you may also rediscover the pleasure of true
communication．
76．How does the author introduce the topic of the text？（no more than
5words）
77．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2with proper words．（no more than 8words）
78．What emotional difficulties may be the causes of text addiction？（no more
than 5words）
第13页 | 共42页79．What do experts say about text addiction？（no more than 14words）
80．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3？（no more than 8words） ．

W: Oh, we loved it. Tom liked Germany best, but France was my favorite.
M: So did Rachael finally go with you?
W: No, she wasn’t able to. She was called away for a business trip to China.

W: Bob, I’m sure you know about second-hand smoke.
M: Of course, I do.
W: But have you heard about third-hand smoke?
M: Third-hand smoke? I’m afraid not. What is that then?
W: Well, it is here in today’s paper. Parents may think they are protecting children
from second-hand smoke when they smoke outside their home or only when the
children are not there. But now researchers are warning about what they call third-
hand smoke. When you smoke dangerous matter from cigarettes get into your hair and
clothing. As babies are the weakest, when you come to a baby, you pass it to the baby
and increase the chances of disease in the baby.
M: Is that so? In that case I have to say that I should never get close to a baby.
W: That’s right. Actually all smoking parents should do the same or better give it up
completely.

M: Hello, welcome to our program “Today City”. I’m Larry. We’re going to
Louisville Kentucky where our guest Michelle Ray comes from. She is proud of her
middle-sized city with a small town feel and big city dreams. Now, Michelle, tell us
about your city.
第19页 | 共42页W: Thank you, Larry. Here is my city. Louisville is my city. The first place I take
visitors from out of town is to the Highlands for shopping and night life. When I have
delicious Asian food I always go to the Zen Garden which provides wonderful all
vegetable dishes.
M: Wow, that’s interesting. Many people go for healthy food now.
W: You can say that again. If I want to go camping and fishing, I go to the Red River
area. For complete quiet I can hide away in my house with a good book from one of
our public libraries.
M: That all sounds very exciting. I’m sure some of our listeners will include
Louisville in their travel plan for their next holiday. Thank you, Michelle.

M: We are glad to have Dr. Garfield to talk to us today about dreams. Let me start by
asking the first question. Does everyone dream?
W: It appears that everyone does. Mostly when people say that they never dream, what they really
mean is that they don’t remember their dreams or they don’t think their dreams are important. The
reason behind is that they might have been made fun of with a child when they first reported their
dreams or it was so frightening that they just turned off dreaming completely. The other day,
someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be a great dreamer, but suddenly he
stopped having dreams. I asked him what it happened. It turned out that his brother died by heart
attack and he never expected that such a terrible thing would happen to a young person. Generally,
when there was some frightening event and dream about it was too terrible. People prefer not to
dream about it. Actually the worst thing you can do is stop dreaming. Because it means that the
bad experience would be too painful to even appear in dreams. As long as you dream about it and
even the dream is frightening, your mind is working on it. My personal opinion about what dreams
do is that they help us deal with our problems. We see certain patterns take place in dreams. When
a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill or when a person has been really sad, if
people turn off their dreams totally, it means they don’t love themselves to even think about it.

Arthur Miller （1915﹣2005）is universally recognized as one of the greatest

Hungary，drawn like so many others by the"Great American
Dream"．However，he experienced severe financial hardship when his family
business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early l930s．
Miller's most famous play，Death of a Salesman，is a powerful attack on the
American system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on
money and social status as indicators of worth．In Willy Loman，the hero of the
play，we see a man who has got into trouble with his worth．Willy is"burnt
out"and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment：if he can't do
the work，then he is no good to his employer，the Wagner Company，and he
must go．Willy is painfully aware of this，and at loss as to what to do with his lack
of success．He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the
end．
When it was first staged in 1949，the play was greeted with enthusiastic
reviews，and it won the Tony Award for Best Play，the New York Drama

to us，"Tim would say．In April1998，he learned he would need a heart
operation．It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's
purpose．
Not long after the surgery，Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library，a
program started by Dolly Parton's foundation （基金会） that mailed a book every
month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of
Sevier，Tennessee．"I thought，maybe Linda and I could do something like this
when we retire，"Tim recalls．He placed the brochure on his desk，"as a
reminder．"
Five years later，now retired and with that brochure still on the desk，Tim clicked
on imagination library．com．The program had been opened up to partners who
could take advantage of book and postage discounts．
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters．Rather than sign up
online，they went to Dollywood for a look﹣see．"We didn't want to give the
children rubbish，"says Linda．The books﹣reviewed each year by
teachers，literacy specialists and Dollywood board members﹣included classics
such as Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney's
Llama Llama series．
Satisfied，the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work．Since
2004，they have shipped more than 12，200books to preschoolers in their in their
area．Megan Williams，a mother of four，is more than appreciative："This
program introduces us to books I've never heard of．"

are so busy．

Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her
21﹣year﹣old twin sons：a combination of savings，income，scholarships，and a
modest amount of borrowing．Then her husband lost his job，and the plan fell
apart．
"I have two kids in college，and I want to say'come home，'but at the same time I
want to provide them with a good education，"says Jacobs．
The Jacobs family did work out a solution：They asked and received more aid
from the schools，and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount
through the federal loan （贷款） program．They will each graduate with
$20，000 of debt，but at least they will be able to finish school．
With unemployment rising，financial aid administrators expect to hear more
families like the Jacobs．
More students are applying for aid，and more families expect to need student
loans．College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid
money to go around．
At the same time，tuition （学费） continues to rise．A report from the
National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and
第34页 | 共42页fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007，while average family income rose just
147%．Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade．
"If we go on this way for another 25years，we won't have an affordable system of
higher education，"says Patrick M．Callan，president of the center．"The middle
class families have been financing it through debt．They will send kids to college
whatever it takes，even if that means a huge amount of debt．"
Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies
decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making
them．The good news，however，is that federal loans account for about three
quarters of student borrowing，and the government says that money will flow
uninterrupted．
66．According to Paragraph 1，why did the plan of Jacobs family fail？
A．The twins wasted too much money
B．The father was out of work
C．Their saving ran out
D．The family fell apart

B．the government will receive more letters of complaint
C．college tuition fees will double soon D．America's unemployment will fall
69．What can we learn about the middle class families from the text？

support for college students．

71．（2011•山东）D
Since the 1970s，scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with
computers．Brain﹣computer interface （BCI） technology could help people with
disabilities send commands to machines．
Recently，two researchers，Jose Milan and Michele Tavella from the Federal
Polytechnic school in Lausanne，Switzerland，demonstrated（展示）a small
robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts．
In the laboratory，Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his
left or right band．He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with
his thoughts．
"Our brain has billions of nerve ceils．These send signals through the spinal cord
（脊髓）to the muscles to give us the ability to move．But spinal cord injuries or
other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the
muscles，"Tavella says．"Our system allows disabled people to communicate with
external world and also to control devices．"
The researchers designed a special cap for the user．This head cover picks up the
signals from the scalp（头皮） and sends them to a computer．The computer
interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair．The wheelchair
also has two cameras that identify objects in its path．They help the computer react
to commands from the brain．
Prof．Milan，the team leader，says scientists keep improving the computer
software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands．"The
practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in
two categories：communication，and controlling devices．One example is this
wheelchair．"
第37页 | 共42页He says his team has set two goals．One is testing with real patients，so as to prove
that this is a technology they can benefit from．And the other is to guarantee that
they can use the technology over long periods of time．
71．BCI is a technology that can B ．
A．help to update computer systems B．link the human brain with computers
C．help the disabled to recover D．control a person's thoughts
72．How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory？ D
A．By controlling his muscles．B．By talking to the machine．C．By moving his
hand．D．By using his mind．
73．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5？
C
A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair B．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair D．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
74．The team will test with real patients to B ．
A．make profits from them B．prove the technology useful to them
C．make them live longer D．learn about their physical condition
75．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？ C
A．Switzerland，the BCI Research Center
B．New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disable
D．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries．
【分析】本文是一则新闻报道，科学家寻找到了一种方法，把人脑与电脑连接

[1]Do you spend over an hour each day texting messages to your friends？Do you
frequently ignore work，study，and other activities to check your phone for
messages？Are you anxious and restless if you are separated from your mobile
phone？Do you hardly ever use your phone to talk any more，and do your thumbs
hurt from texting too much？
[2]If you answer"yes"to any of the questions ，then it is very possible that you
are a textaholic．A textaholic can be defined as someone who is addicted to sending
and receiving messages．The main symptoms are a strong desire to text
messages，which takes precedence （优先）over everything else，and bad
第39页 | 共42页moods，low spirits and a lack of self﹣confidence if messages fail to come in．The
root of the problem，as with many addictions，is the desire to escape from
emotional difficulties such as stress，anxiety and relationship problems．Experts
warn that text addiction is likely to become the most common form of addiction in
the future，especially among the young．
[3]So what can you do if you think you may be a textaholic？The key is to get your
life back in balance．Make sure you resist the urge to answer every message you
receive，and consider leaving your mobile phone behind occasionally when you go
out．Most importantly，make a point of spending quality time with friends and
family，and make time to re﹣learn the art of face﹣to﹣face conversation instead
of conducting your relationships by means of text messages．Not only will you save
time and money，but you may also rediscover the pleasure of true
communication．

problems．此题是细节理解题目，依据在第二段第二句话，另外要注意字数限
制，因此也考查学生搜索信息和概括的能力．
79．答案：It may become the most common form of addiction，especially among
the young．此题要求回答问题且有字数限制，原文提到"Experts warn that text
addiction is likely to become the most common form of addiction in the
future，especially among the
young．"而回答是要对这句话的信息进行同义的转换和重组，且在字数之内．
80．答案：How to get rid of text
addiction．此题是主旨大意题目，通读第三段，从"Most importantly…but you
may also rediscover the pleasure of true
communication．"可知，作者在此段主要告诉了我们面对面交流的好处．可以
更好的陪伴家人，可以节省时间和金钱，更重要的是可以找到沟通的真正乐趣
．作者告诉读者这些好处也是为了通过面对面交流可以帮助读者摆脱短信成瘾
．故此段可总结为"How to get rid of text addiction"
