In the nineteenth century Charles Dickens, the English novelist, wrote excitedly 16 a stage – coach, pulled along by a team of horses that could 17 more than twenty miles of road within sixty minutes. To us in the twentieth century, 18 man is able to move and to communicate with such rapidity, the 19 of the stage – coach seems no speed at all. Aeroplanes fly many hundreds of miles in an hour; express trains 20 four times the speed of the stage – coach; and even without 21 , we can, by wireless or telegraph, communicate with seconds with people on 22 side of the globe.

The 23 of these increased speeds are numerous. Because business 24 say, from Europe to America or to the Far East can save much time, 25 a journey that would once have taken weeks 26 now, by air, only twenty – four hours. Fruit, vegetables and other goods would go bad

27 a long, slow journey can be safely sent to far distant places. Members of one family 28 each other by vast distances can have conversation with each other by telephone 29 if they were all sitting in the same room.

Not all the effects of speed, however, are 30 . People who are in the habit of using motor cars 31 they want to move half a mile become physically lazy and lose the 32 of enjoying a vigorous（充满活力的）walk. Those who travel through a country at eighty miles an hour do not see much of life of that country, of its people and animals and plants as they flash 33 . They become so anxious about moving quickly from one place to another that they are 34 able to relax and enjoy a 35 journey.

三、 阅读理解（共15题 满分45分）

(A)

Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful(有压力的) conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.

Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support — money aid, material resources, and needed services — that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.

36. The researches show that people’s physical and mental health _______.

A. lies in the social medical care systems which support them

B. has much to do with the amount of support they get from others

C. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles

D. is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes

37. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “cushions” ?

A. takes place of B. makes up of C. lessens the effect of D. gets rid of

38. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work in spare time is an example of _______.

A. instrumental support B. informational support

C. social companionship D. the strengthening of self-respect

(B)

According to a famous optical(光学) expert, Alexander, who recently visited Shanghai, the developed countries in Europe and America have made rules that children must wear resinous(树脂) glasses instead of the traditional glasses made of glass. This is because the glass glasses are more likely to do harm to children’s eyesight.

Alexander pointed out: wearing the right glasses as soon as possible is still the best way to cure and put right children’s eyesight problems.

In America and Japan the resinous glasses have taken up 80 percent of the glasses market. And some European countries and America have made it a law that children, teenagers and drivers must wear resinous glasses. Now, about 10 million children in China have different eyesight problems and they need timely treatment.

But still, too many parents are buying the traditional glass glasses for their children. This is mainly because many parents know little or nothing about the good points of the resinous glasses. Besides, the price for the new glasses is a little higher than the traditional ones.

39. This news article mainly wants to tell us _______.

A. Alexander visited China and introduced a new type of glasses

B. we should wear resinous glasses instead of glass glasses

C. resinous glasses are popular in Europe and America

D. glasses can be made of other materials instead of glass

40. According to Alexander, the “timely treatment” to eyesight problems is _______.

A. to stop wearing glass glasses any more B. to buy a pair of glasses and wear them right away

C. to wear suitable resinous glasses at the right time

D. to buy glasses made in Europe, Japan or America if possible

41. It can be inferred from this news text that _______.

A. resinous glasses are not on sale in China yet

B. resinous glasses are not acceptable in China

C. glass glasses have disappeared on western market because there is a law against them

D. glass glasses are the first choice in China not only because of their price

(C)

The U.S. Department of Labor statistics(统计) show that there is an oversupply of college trained workers and that this oversupply is increasing. Already there have been more than enough teachers, engineers, physicists, aerospace experts, and other specialists. Yet colleges and graduate schools continue every year to turn out highly trained people to compete for jobs that aren’t there. The result is that graduates cannot enter the professions for which they were trained and must take temporary jobs which do not require a college degree.

On the other hand, there is a great need for skilled workers of all sorts: carpenters, electricians, mechanics, plumbers, TV repairmen. These people have more work than they can deal with, and their annual incomes are often higher than those of college graduates. The old gap that white —collar workers make a better living than blue collar workers no longer holds true. The law of supply and demand now favors the skilled workmen.

The reason for this situation is the traditional myth that college degree is a passport to a prosperous future. A large part of American society matches success in life equally with a college degree. Parents begin indoctrinating(灌输) their children with this myth before they are out of grade school. High school teachers play their part by acting as if high school education were a preparation for college rather than for life. Under this pressure the kids fall in line. Whether they want to go to college or not doesn’t matter. Everybody should go to college, so of course they must go. And every year college enrollments(入学) go up and up, and more and more graduates are overeducated for the kinds of jobs available to them.

One result of this emphasis on a college education is that many people go to college who do not belong there. Of the sixty percent of high school graduates who enter college, half of them do not graduate with their class. Many of them drop out within the first year. Some struggle on for two or three years and then give up.

42. It’s implied but not stated in the passage that _______.

A. many other countries are facing the same problem

B. white-collar workers in the US used to make more money than blue-collar workers

C. fewer students will prefer to go to college in the future

D. the law of supply and demand has a strong effect on American higher education

43. Which of the following is NOT a reason why college enrollments go up every year？

A. Many people believe that the only way to success is a college education.

B. Many parents want their children to go to college.

C. High school teachers urge their students to go to college.

D. Every young man and woman wants to go to college.

44. By saying that “many people go to college who do not belong there”, the author means that _______.

A. many people who are not fit for college education go to college

B. many people who do not have enough money go to college

C. many people who go to college drop out within the first year

D. many people who go to college have their hopes destroyed

(D)

Visiting U.S. President George W. Bush said in Beijing Friday that both China and the United States should encourage bilateral(双边的) contacts and exchanges to promote mutual(相互) understanding.

“It’s important for our political leaders to come to China,” said Bush, who gave a speech Friday morning at Qinghua University, one of the most prestigious universities in China.

His working visit to China and discussions with Oinghua students “help promote” Sino-U.S.(中美) relations, Bush said in response to a student’s question about what he would do to promote Sino-U.S. relations.

“Many people in my country are very interested in China,” he said, adding that these Americans have learned more about China’s culture and the Chinese people.

He said that he would keep encouraging such contacts and exchanges between the two countries.

Bush said that he would describe back home what he has seen here and that China as a great nation not only has a “great history” but also an “unbelievably exciting future.”

The president said that the 2008 Olympic Games would make a significant opportunity for the rest of the world to understand China, which enables more people to come to China and feel the modernization taking place, and many more people will see it on the television.

Bush arrived in Beijing Thursday for a two-day working visit to China.

45. What the word “prestigious” in the second paragraph probably means?

A. great B. famous C. honorable D. modest

46. The narrator(叙述者) of the passage was most probably _____.

When you are in another country, it is important to know the language, but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally(非语言地), before saying anything by making gestures. According to a pioneer in nonverbal communication, only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.

In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”. In Southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you”.

In ancient Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life, he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States, when someone puts his / her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right”. However, in Sardinia and Greece, the gesture is insulting and should not be used there.

In the United States, raising your clasped hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship.

In the United States, holding your hand up with the thumb and index finger in a circle and the other three fingers spread out means “Everything is O.K.” and is frequently used by astronauts and politicians. In France and Belgium, it can mean “You’re worth nothing.”

There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country, such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans usually feel comfortable when speaking with someone if the distance between them is about eighteen inches to arm’s length. Anything closer makes them feel uncomfortable.

When talking to Americans, it is also important to make eye contact. If you look down when talking to an American, he / she may feel that you are embarrassed, afraid, or trying to hide something.

In addition to knowing how to communicate nonverbally in a country, it is important to know what you and he cannot discuss. In the United States, there are certain topics to avoid when you first meet someone, For example, don’t ask people their age, weight, religion, marital status(婚姻状况), how much money they earn, or how much something costs. You can talk about work, the weather, traffic problems, sports, food, news of the day, where one lives, consumer subjects (computers, car repairs, and so forth), and travel or vacation plans.

These few examples illustrate that your actions can speak louder than your words. In a particular cultural contest, what you say and what you don’t say are equally important.

47. Which of the following is true?

A. People all over the world only communicate verbally.

B. Most of our gestures have no meaning at all.

C. Some people think that 65 to 70 percent of our communication is nonverbal.

D. Gestures are the most common way to common way to communicate.

48. As we can see from the passage there are ____ kinds of nonverbal communication signals.

A. four B. five C. six D. seven

49. Please paraphrase the clause“…your actions can speak louder than your words.

A. Your deeds are better than your words B. What you do is better than what you say

C. You try to show your best manners

D. you are better understood by your gestures than through your words

50. The main idea of the passage is that when you are in another country, ______.

A. it is unimportant to know the language

B. it is important to know what you can talk about to a foreigner

C. to know how to communicate nonverbally is as important as to know the language

D. to communicate the rough gestures is more important than to know the language
