Miranda’s new assistant? I imagine that you’ll just be delighted with this news. So let’s see, you can start on Monday, right?
A: Umm, well, I don’t think I can start Monday. I am visiting my father in Baltimore. And because I don’t live in New
York, I’ll need a couple of days to find a flat and buy some furniture and move my things from Avon.
B: Oh, well then, in that case I suppose Wednesday would be good. Ok, see you then!

Woman: Hello, Mr. Jan Erick Freedman. You’re a frequent traveler. And we also know that you eat out twice a day. How
come you’re so fond of eating out?
Man: When I got my first job back in 1982 and started travelling, I had no other choice but eat out. I found that I felt
different due to what I was eating, so I tried to find places that served food that made me feel good. The secret was the
quality of the food and how well the food was prepared. I made an effort to find good restaurants as well as nice dishes.
Woman: How did you manage to make a list of 218 favorite restaurants?
Man: I’ve lived in many cities and when I moved back to Sweden from the United States, people asked me where to go and
eat when they went to cities I knew. I got a lot of ideas. Then I wrote about restaurants for the Swedish club magazine and
someone suggested I gather the information about the restaurants together since I had all the facts about the restaurants I’ve
been to. I started to do that.
Woman: How do you find restaurants?
Man: The best way is to ask the people there. I may talk to the people at the street market or take a walk and look for a place
for myself. I never asked a hotel clerk or a taxi driver. I don’t go empty restaurants or places with menus too difficult to
understand.
Text 10
Man: At the beginning of the tour, we’ll start with the most important place in my town, which is the Plaza Leon. The Plaza
Leon, which is more than 100 years old, is a gathering place for young people on Friday and Saturday nights, and for
parents and children on Sunday afternoons. Four streets lead to the Plaza, which have white sidewalks and treeline.
Hernandes Street, which was named after a famous writer born in the city, contains all of the food stores, fish markets and
vegetable stands. Femando Street, which was named after an educator, is where all of the government offices are housed.
Via del Mar Street, whose roads are made of stones, is the only street which still has its old surface. Finally we come to
Horatio Street on which there are two universities, one of them is the most famous university in my country. That’s why it’s
my favorite street of all.

A
When I was 12, all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring. They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had
one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.
What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in
fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the " new" stuff (东西) we got was
really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.
Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched
everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later,
we sold the house and moved away.
Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me.
It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. "
You'll recognize this one," she said, smiling.
Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside. The family
who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the
carpets. When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they
realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother. And it
still fits me.
56. The underlined word "in" in the first paragraph probably means "_____".
A. fashionable B. available C. practical D. renewable
第11页 | 共23页57. When she got the ring back, the writer was about _____.
A. 13 years old B. 15 years old C. 26 years old D. 28 years old
58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The writer's family moved several times.
B. The writer never stopped looking for her ring.
C. The writer's ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.
D. The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.
59. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. My New Ring B. Lost and Found C. Lost and Replaced D. An Expensive Ring

Your glasses may someday replace your smartphone, and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch. Some in the city can't
wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include.
第12页 | 共23页" I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open," said Walter
Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.
The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times said, possibly
including a variation of augmented(增强的) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑)
that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street,
indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on
the sidewalk in front of you.
" As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs," said Sam Biddle, who writes for
Gizmodo.com. " We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things," he added, "and the average
consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars. "
9to5Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said he is
confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones.
"It's just like smartphones 10 years ago," Weintraub said. "A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people
thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones, and it's
unnatural," he said. " There's gonna be improvements to that, and this a step there. "
60. One of the possible functions of the smartphone-like glasses is to ____.
A. program the opening hours of a bar
B. supply you with a picture of the future
C. provide information about your surroundings
D. update the maps and GPS in your smartphones
61. The underlined phrase "pop up" in the third paragraph probably means " ____".
A. develop rapidly B. get round quickly
C. appear immediately D. go over automatically
62. According to Sam Biddle, the smartphone-like glasses are ____.
A. necessary for teenagers B. attractive to New Yorkers
C. available to people worldwide D. expensive for average consumers
63. We can learn from the last two paragraphs that the smartphone-like glasses ____.
A. may have a potential market B. are as common as smartphones
C. are popular among young adults D. will be improved by a new technology

Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman
Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen's most famous work, might be updated, 200 years on.
Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence. But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her
characters. Here's my own suggestion. . .
It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to
men, however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.
" My dear husband," said his hopeful wife one day, " have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long, is
taken over by a bright young businesswoman?"
Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not. "But it is, it is," she replied excitedly. Mr Dull-
Husband made no reply.
"Don't you want to know her plans?" she cried with some impatience.
"Well, clearly you think it matters to your silly little head. .. so I'd better listen. "
"Well, my dear, the rumour (传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England,
though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me. She will move in herself next month. " "What is her
name?" "Bingley. "
"Is she married or single?"
"What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys. " "How so? How can it
第16页 | 共23页possibly affect them? "
"My dear love; those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. "
" Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place. "
" Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business
qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. "
" Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. " "Oh, that's
not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. "
And Mrs Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company.
... It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her
salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more "female" dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the
city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed
(攀谈) with influential figures.
67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Austen was born 200 years ago.
B. Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.
C. Austen's success lies in her wisdom.
D. Austen's updated work gains popularity.
68. The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet ____.
A. had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about Bingley
B. felt kind of worried and doubtful about Bingley
C. was extremely anxious to meet Bingley
D. had a great curiosity about Bingley
69. In the eyes of Mrs Bennet, Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ____.
A. get married to B. work for her
C. help her move inD. take over her store
70. What does the writer intend to tell us?
A. Women with brains can also be as successful as men.
B. Women have to pay a high price for success.
C. A judgment must be made free from prejudice.
D. Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.

A MENTORING (导师制) program is giving life changing opportunities to Banbury youth.
Young Inspirations was founded two years ago to provide mentoring sessions for students and unemployed young adults
aged 11 to 21.
Alex Goldberg, the program's founder, said; "We set up Young Inspirations because we wanted to give young people
experiences which will potentially be life changing and broaden their outlook.
"We try to create work experience opportunities that will really make a difference to our youth. For example, we've secured
internships (实习) with world-famous firms such as Honda.
"At a time of funding cutbacks where schools are finding it more and more difficult to offer this kind of mentoring, it is
extremely important that these opportunities are available both to help youth with their school work and grades and to give
them opportunities which may help shape their futures. " Kieran Hepburn, 14, is one of a group of Banbury youth who has
benefited from the program so far. In October the Banbury School pupil was accompanied by Young Inspirations staff to
Paris where he was an observer at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO)
第18页 | 共23页International Youth Forum (论坛).
The event was held for young people from around the world, to seek their views on how the future of youth and education
should look. Kieran joined several hundred observers mostly in their 20s and was the only UK school pupil to attend the
event. Kieran thinks the trip was a life changing experience. " Before we left I didn't quite know what to make of it but
when we got there we didn't stop, it was amazing," he said, " We went to three or four hours of debates each day and then
did something cultural each afternoon. "
The main theme of the forum was how youth can drive change in political and public life. It dealt with issues (问题) such as
drug abuse, violence and unemployment.
Kieran said: " It has really helped me to improve my confidence and social skills as well as my school grades and I was
voted most improved pupil at school in August. "
The Young Inspirations mentoring sessions take place each Friday in Banbury. For details visit
www.younginspirations.com.
71. The Young Inspirations mentoring program aims to _____.
A. train staff for world-famous firms B. offer job opportunities to young adults
C. provide youth with unique experiences D. equip the unemployed with different skills
72. According to Alex Goldberg, it is difficult for schools to offer the mentoring due to _____.
A. the lack of support from firms B. the cultural differences
C. the effect of unemployment D. the shortage of money
73. According to the passage, the forum focused on how youth can ____.
A. build up their confidence at school B. find work experience opportunities
C. improve their social skills for the future D. play an active role in the change of society
74. We can learn from the passage that _____.
A. the visit to the United Kingdom was amazing
B. Kieran has made great progress in many aspects
C. the youth have found a way to solve their problems
D. the mentoring sessions are held every day except Friday
75. What would be the best tide for the passage?
A. Alex Goldberg, Founder of Young Inspirations
B. Young People Find a World of Opportunity
C. Kieran, Banbury School Pupil to Paris
D. Debates Help Youth with Their Grades
