Passage 1
The information Highway is the road that links computer users to a large number of on-line
services; the Web ,e-mail, and software, to mention just a few. Not long ago, the Information
Highway was a new road, with not many users. Now, everyone seems to want to take a drive, with
over 30 million families connected worldwide. Not surprisingly, this well-traveled highway is
starting to look like a well-traveled highway. Traffic jams can cause many serious problems,
forcing the system to close down for repair. Naturally, accidents will happen on such a crowed
road, and usually victims are some files, gone forever. Then, of course, there’s Mr. Cool, with his
new broad-band connection, who speeds down the highway faster than most of us can go. But
don’t trick yourself; he pays for that speeding.
Passage 2

Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail
a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources（来源）, as well as one of the oldest.
Evidence shows that windmills（风车）began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century
BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle
East with knowledge of using wind power.
For many centuries, people used windmills to grind（磨碎）wheat into flour or pump water
from deep underground when electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote
areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio.
However, by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United
States, windmills were rarely used.
During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created
when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal
and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher coasts.
Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of
wind.
60．From the text we know that windmills ________.
A．were invented by European armies
B．have a history of more than 2,800 years
C．used to supply power to radio in remote areas
D．have rarely been used since electricity was discovered
61．What was a new use for wind power in the late l9th century?
A．Sailing a boat.
B．Producing electricity.
C．Grinding wheat into flour.
D．Pumping water from underground.
62．One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is that _______.
A．wind power is cleaner
B．it is one of the oldest power sources
C．it was cheaper to create energy from wind
D．the supply of coal and gas failed to meet needs
63．What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A．The advantages of wind power.
B．The design of wind power plants.
C．The worldwide movement to save energy.
D．The global trend towards producing power from wind.
C
They are the sort of friends who are so close they trust each other with their lives. If one falls
the other is there to catch him.
They are Wellman, whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing
accident. and Corbett, an experienced rock climber. Together, they climbed up Half Dome, the
famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National Park, through one of the most difficult routes.(路
线)
During the climb, Corbett took the lead, hit in the metal spikes（尖状物）that guided the ropes
and climbed up. Then, after Wellman pulled himself up the rope, Corbett went down to remove the
spikes and climbed up again. This process was repeated time and again, inch by inch, for 13 days.
Wellman’s job was not easy either. He got himself up the rope through upper body strength
alone. In all, Wellman figured that he had done 5,000 pull-ups up the rope on the climb.
However, when the two men first met, they never talked about climbing. “he knew that was
how I got injured.” Wellman said. Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again
and they started training.
Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth. At one point, pieces of rock gave way, and
Corbett dropped down quickly. Wellman locked their rope in place, stopping the fall at 20 feet. His
quick action probably saved his friend’s life.
“Your partner can save your life --- you can save your partner’s life,” Wellman said as the
pair received congratulations from friends. “There are real close ties.”
64．Which of the following was a challenge for Corbett in climbing Half Dome?
A．To climb up to remove the spikes.
B．To climb it twice.
C．To do 5,000 pull-ups up the rope.
D．To lock the rope in place.
65．Why did the two men never talk about climbing when they first met?
A．Corbett was poorly trained.
B．Wellman had lost interest in climbing.
C．Corbett didn’t want to hurt Wellman.
D．Wellman hadn’t decided whether to climb again.
66．What do we know about Wellman?
A．He climbed Half Dome by himself.
B．He was disabled in a traffic accident.
C．He stopped rock-climbing for some time.
D．He was saved by Corbett during the climb.
67．The main idea of the text is that______.
A．two heads are better than one
B．friendship is precious in life
C．the disabled should never give up
D．a man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated
D
Ireland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when English
rulers tried to conquer(征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the
English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of
Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of
the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.
In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died
of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work , forced many people to leave Ireland and live in
the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2
million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.
For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many
people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in
factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things
move at a quieter and slower pace.
The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly, Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish
writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”, Since independence,
Ireland has revived(复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different
areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of
Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.
68．What does the author tell us in paragraph 1?
A．How the Irish fought against the English.
B．How Ireland gained independence.
C．How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.
D．How two ”Irelands” came into being.
69．We learn from the text that in Ireland_____.
A．food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in population
B．people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countryside
C．it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory worker
D．different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments
70．The last paragraph is mainly about____.
A．the Irish character
B．Irish culture
C．Irish musical instruments
D．a famous Irish writer
71．What can be the best title for the text?
A．Life in Ireland
B．A Very Difficult History
C．Ireland, Past and Present
D．The Independence of Ireland

George Prochnik would like would to put a sock in it. He makes his case in a new book,
listening for Meaning in a World of Noise, Here he explains himself (using his indoor voice):
“We’ve become so accustomed to noise, there’s almost a deep prejudice against the idea that
silence might be beneficial. If you tell someone to be quiet, you sound like an old man. But it’s
never been more important to find continuing quiet. Silence focuses us, improves our health, and
is a key to lasting peace and satisfaction.”
“We need to excite people about the sounds you start to hear if you merely quiet things down
a little. During a Japanese tea ceremony, the smallest sounds become a kind of art—the spoons
making a light ringing sound on a bowl, the edges of a kimono （和服）brushing against the floor.”
“Deaf people are very attentive（专注的）in almost every aspect of life. If two deaf people are
walking together, using sign language, they constantly watch out for each other and protect each
other by paying steady attention to the other. They are connected yet also fully aware of their
surroundings. Even deaf teenagers! We in the hearing world can learn from them. If we remove
the powerful blasts（一阵阵）of noise, we become aware of an extraordinarily rich world around
us—of little soft sounds and the sound of footsteps, of bird songs and ice cracking（开裂声）. It’s
astonishing how beautiful things sound when you can really listen. ”
72．What does the phrase “to put a sock in it” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A．to be quiet
B．to be colorful
C．to be full of love
D．to be attentive to someone
73．What does Prochnik say about us?
A．We are used to quietness.
B．We have to put up with noise.
C．We do not think silence to be beneficial.
D．We do not believe lasting peace to be available.
74．Which of the following is true according to Prochnik?
A．We need more sounds in our lives.
B．There is nothing to be learned from the deaf.
C．We are not aware how rich the world around us is.
D．There is too much noise at a Japanese tea ceremony.
75．It can be inferred from the text that .
A．we can benefit a lot from old people
B．it is a good idea to use sign language
C．there is no escape from the world of sound
D．it is possible to find how beautiful
things sound

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
If we agree that the function of education is to prepare us for life, then there is very little time
to waste. So, while we can, we ought to concentrate on teaching children something really useful.
Here is what our schools should teach.
Politeness is a mark of civilization. The sooner children learn this, the better. In any case, a
lot can be accomplished by a smile and good manners.
Like it or not, our adult lives will be consumed by the struggle for money, but we don’t make
an effort to teach children how to manage it. So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability
from the beginning.
We’re likely no accept something we are told, but that’s not what educated people do.
Educated people are reasonable and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they
should at least teach critical（批判性的）thinking.
Children should learn to take care of their health. They should know that if they eat junk food
（垃圾食品）, they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens
to their bodies when they drink or smoke.
All of us are part of society. We have rights and responsibilities. We ought to understand what
they are. We have to know a little bit of history and geography, because we need to have an
environment in which to relate to the people around us.
How will we test students on these? We can’t. But that’s not a reason to avoid teaching what
is important. Our schools should spend every moment they have telling this to our children: ”This
is life, this is what you are going to face, and this is how you deal with it.”

My Approach to Difficulties in Learning
As high school students, we run into one difficulty after another in the process of learning.
Everyone has their own way to deal with them. Here I would like to share mine.
When I am faced with a difficulty, I usually choose to refer to relevant learning materials or
Web pages. In this way, I can not only work it out but also improve my ability to overcome
problems all by myself.
However, when it is something beyond my competence, I turn to my classmates or teachers
for help. Sometimes I also my parents for advice. As a result, I have made steady progress in my
studies.

26. — What do you think of store shopping in the future?
—Personally, I think it will exist along with home shopping but _____.
A. will never replace B. would never replace
C. will never be replaced D. would never be replaced
【解析】选 C。考查时态和语态。句意为：“你认为未来的商场购物会如何？”“依我看，
商场购物会和家庭购物并存，但是永远不会被代替。”本题考查时态和语态。根据句子
结构，but 后应为一般将来时；句中主语it 指store shopping，but 后应用被动语态，故选择
C 项。
27. The factory used 65 percent of the raw materials, the rest of which _____ saved for other
purposes.
A. is B. are C. was D. were
【解析】选 D。考查时态与主谓一致。句意为：该工厂使用了65%的原材料，其余的用作其
它用途。非限制性定语从句中的主语rest 意为“其余的”，谓语动词应与of 后的名词一致，
而which 指代先行词materials，故谓语用复数；定语从句中的谓语应与主句中的谓语动词
used 一致，故用过去时态。从时态和主谓一致两方面考虑，选择D 项。
28. Whatever is left over may be put into the refrigerator, _____ it will keep for two or three
weeks.
A. when B. which C. where D. while
【解析】选C。考查定语从句。句意为：剩下的任何东西都可以放入冰箱，在那里可以保存两
三周。本题考查非限制性定语从句的关系副词。由句型结构可以看出，该题中的先行词
refrigerator 在从句中作介词的宾语，该介宾结构在定语从句中作地点状语，故选择关系副
词where。when 在从句中作时间状语；which 在从句中作主语或宾语；while 是连词，不能
用于定语从句。
29. —You can have a pet dog, but suppose you get bored with it in a few days？_____？
— We won’t, we promise!
A. Then what B. All right C. How come D. So what
【解析】选 A。考查情境交际。句意为：“你可以养只宠物狗，但是假如过了几天你厌烦了
呢？下一步会怎么样呢？”“我们保证不会厌烦的。”A 项为“下一步会怎样？下一步
怎么办？”；B 项为“好吧”，表示赞同别人的建议；C 项为“怎么会呢？”，表示惊讶；D
项为“那又怎样？”，表示对某事不关心或认为某事不重要。根据句意选择A 项。
30. Tom asked the candy makers if they could make the chocolate easier _____ into small pieces.
A. break B. breaking C. broken D. to break
【解析】选D。考查非谓语动词。句意为：汤姆问糖果制造商他们能否把巧克力制作地更易
弄碎。该句中的形容词easier 为宾语补足语，相当于表语的作用，其后应该使用不定式结
构，类似于It is + adj. + to do…结构，故选择D 项。
31. _____, I managed to get through the game and the pain was worth it in the end.
A. Hopefully B. Normally C. Thankfully D. Conveniently
【解析】选C。考查副词辨义。句意为：幸好，我设法打完了比赛，为此做出的努力也没有白
费。本题考查作句子状语的副词词义辨析。A 项为“充满希望地”；B 项为“正常地”；C 项
为“庆幸地，满怀感激地；幸好”；D 项为“方便地，便利地”。根据句意选择C 项。
32. —I didn’t ask for the name list. Why ______on my desk?
—I put it there just now in case you needed it.
A. does it land
B. has it landed C. will it land
D. had it landed
【解析】选B。考查句子时态。句意为：“我没有要名单，怎么名单在我桌上？”“我刚才
放在那里的，免得你需要。”问句中谈论的事情即“放”的动作发生在过去，强调的是
对话发生时的情况，需要使用现在完成时，故选择B 项。
33. His writing is so confusing that it’s difficult to make out _____it is he is trying to express.
A. that
B. how
C. who
D. what
【解析】选 D。考查名词性从句。句意为：他的笔迹非常混乱，很难弄清他想表达什么意思。
本题考查动词短语make out 引起的的宾语从句，该空在宾语从句中作express 的宾语，表
示事物，故选择D 项。That 在宾语从句中不作句子成分；how 作方式状语；who 作主语，指
人。只有what 可用作宾语并且指事物。
34. If you _____faults but you still want the bicycle, ask the shop assistant to reduce the price.
A. come across B. care about
C. look for
D. focus upon
【解析】选A。考查短语动词。句意为：如果你发现自行车有瑕疵但还想买，可以要求店员降

be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC 可知，A 项错误，B 项错在more than；
根据末段句子可知，尽管成本较高，人们依然使用风能提供电力，因此D 项错误。

C. To do 5,000 pull-ups up the rope. D. To lock the rope in place.

【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第五段可知，Wellman 过了一段时间才决定再次攀岩，于是
他们二人共同训练，因此C 项正确。A 项课文中没有提及；B 项错在in a traffic accident，
应为in a rock-climbing accident；D 项错误，应为Wellman 挽救了Corbett 的生命。
67. The main idea of the text is that .
A. two heads are better than one
B. friendship is precious in life
C. the disabled should never give up
D. a man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated

害影响及本国工作机会缺乏，大量爱尔兰人移往其它国家，使爱尔兰人口下降，故A 项正
确。B 项中人们移往城市并非是由于农村缺少工作机会；文章中并没有对比城市和乡村生
活的难易；D 项错误在于all，并非全部的爱尔兰歌谣都使用乐器。
70. The last paragraph is mainly about .
A. the Irish character B. Irish culture
C. Irish musical instruments D. a famous Irish writer

a deep prejudice against the idea that silence might be beneficial 和it’s never been more
important to find continuing quiet 及第三段During a Japanese tea ceremony, the smallest
sounds become a kind of art 等句可以判断得出，我们生活在一个喧闹的世界，寂静才是我
们的追求，故选择C 项。

A. We need more sounds in our lives
B. There is nothing to be learned from the deaf
C. We are not aware how rich the world around us is

One possible version
My Approach to Difficulties in Learning
As high school students, we run into one difficulty after another in the process of learning.
Everyone has their own way to deal with them. Here I would like to share mine.
When I am faced with a difficulty, usually choose to refer to relevant learning materials or
Web pages. In this way, I can not only work it out but also improve my ability to overcome
problems all by myself.
However, when it is something beyond my competence, I turn to my classmates or teachers for
help. Sometimes, I also ask my parents for advice. As a result, I have made steady progress in my
studies.
