    Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them; often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.
    Of course sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes. Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore. At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries; however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.
    Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U.S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell. A third department looks at the places where people work, and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course, new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness, but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.
    51. The main topic of the passage is ______.
    A. conditions in the work place            B. the freedom of industries in the past
    C. changes in industrial production       D. the safety and health of workers and customers
    52. It can be inferred from the passage that in the past ______.
    A. workers often got ill because of the poor working conditions
    B. companies were free to put out any products they wanted to
    C. many people were killed by dangerous products
    D. industries were as careful in management as they are today
    53. It is implied in the passage that ______.
    A. governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of products
    B. in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments
    C. government officials often did not listen to scientists
    D. governments paid no attention to the safety of products at all
    54. From the passage, we know that some years ago safety rules ______.
    A. were put forward due to scientists’ recommendations
    B. came into being as a result of the workers’ demands
    C. were introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriously injured
    D. were effective enough to protect workers and customers
    55. The special departments protect customers and workers in many ways EXCEPT by ______.
    A. testing new products                       B. controlling the sale of products
    C. designing new products                   D. inspecting work places

    Perhaps you do not know your school principal (校长) well. But you might be wise to take him or her seriously. Beijing University will enroll (招收) students recommended by high school principals this year. If the students recommended pass a round of interviews by Peking University, they will have an extra 30 extra points added to their national college entrance exam scores if they apply to the university.
    Beijing University said the reason behind the move was a desire to give students with comprehensive (综合的) or special abilities a chance to stand out.
    However, a survey, showed 10,046 out of 14,227 people are against the measure. Some experts agree with the criticism. Liu Daoyu, former president of Wuhan University is one strong opponent(反对者). “There are so many high schools across the country. But only 39 schools are qualified to recommend students. Is it fair to the rest of the schools? Besides, most of the 39 schools are located in big cities, which is unfair to other regions,”
    The reform is also unfair to other students, some say. According to Liu, in the competitive exam, one extra point can put a student ahead of a large numbers of others – never mind 30.
    “Principals do not know students well. How can they guarantee the recommendation will be fair?” asked Wang Xuming, former spokesman of the Ministry of Education.
    The Ministry of Education said the move is a good experiment in college admission reforms and the public should support it even if it is not yet mature (成熟的). It said Beijing University promised a series of supervision (监督) measures to avoid cheating. For example, the information of schools and principals that recommend students, and the recommended students will be put online for a week for public supervision.
    小题1:The best title of the passage could be         .
    A．Beijing University Will Enroll More Students
    B．Beijing University’s Reform Causes a Debate
    C．People Are Against Beijing University’s Reform
    D．The Government Supports Peking University’s Reform
    小题2:The following are the reasons why Liu Daoyu is against Beijing University’s reform except that          .
    A．there will be a lot of cheating
    B．it is unfair to the other regions
    C．it is unfair to other schools
    D．30 points cause a huge gap among students
    小题3:We can learn from the passage that          .
    A．the Ministry of Education supports the reform
    B．the reform has started to work in college admissions
    C．all the recommended students will be accepted
    D．no more than 70% of the people are against the reform
    小题4:If a student passes the interview by Beijing University, he or she         .
    A．can also apply to other universities
    B．will be admitted into Beijing University
    C．will have comprehensive and special abilities
    D．needn’t accept the public supervision

    A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you. 
    Peers can have a good effect on one another. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone’s reading it. 
    However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way. For example, one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him, your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to shoplift with him. Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’s doing it” may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind. 
    Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer－just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations. 
    It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.
    68. What is the best title for this passage? 
    A. Peers have a good effect   B. Children give in to peer pressure
    C. Peer pressure is hard to resist    D. Peer pressure
    69. The underlined word “shoplift” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
    A. do some shopping     B. carry goods for shops 
    C. steal in shops            D. take the lift upstairs in shops
    70. The writer will NOT agree that ________.
    A. only children change their correct answers to incorrect ones because of peer pressure
    B. peers have an effect on one another
    C. peer pressure can be got rid of
    D. peers will believe in themselves if there are other peers who agree with them
    71. By writing the passage the writer intends to ________.
    A. tell people to follow other’s opinions
    B. warn people to stay away from their peers
    C. tell it is hard to walk away from pressure
    D. persuade people to do the right thing regardless of peer pressure

    When I was young，I wished for a good car and a big house. That was my idea of success. I took all the advanced classes and tried to do well in the exams with my mind set on going to a key school. I just knew that I would somehow become famous and be able to afford the car and the dream house. All the way through junior years，my mind was planning this beautiful future.
    Then in the eleventh grade, many losses changed my mind. First, one of my friends died at 16. Soon after， my great-grandmother passed away followed by my beloved fourth-grade teacher. These events left me not knowing what to do or where to go. Death had never touched me so closely.
    After a long period of emptiness, it finally struck me: Life is not promised and neither is future success. Though I was attempting to achieve material success， I was not enjoying my daily life. I realized that finding inner peace， purpose and happiness will stick with me forever and that is real success.
    Enjoying life's precious quirks (偶发事件) makes an ordinary person more successful than a wealthy person who isn't content and takes everything for granted. The summer before senior years, my attitude changed greatly. Instead of memorizing facts, I began learning skills. Instead of focusing on the future， I focused on today and the many blessings and successes that came with it.
    I still get excellent grades， but now I devote weeks to studying instead of struggling for exams, and I think about the future with a deeper sense of meaning. For me, being successful means truly living life each day.
    68.The reason why the author changed his idea of success is ____.
    A.that he can't afford his house
    B.that his beloved teacher was dead
    C.that he didn't know what to do or where to go
    D.that he lost a few beloved persons in a short time
    69.What does the author want to tell the readers?
    A.The true meaning of the life.
    B.The true meaning of studying
    C.How to achieve success.
    D.His opinion about success.
    70. According to the passage which of the following is TRUE?
    A.The writer thinks the success is not promised.
    B.His teacher died before the death of his grandpa.
    C.The writer didn’t do well in all the exams.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在机读卡上将该项涂黑。
    The part of the earth’s history known as the coal age began more than 250 million years ago and lasted millions of years. During that time, in the area that is now the United States, coal beds formed from Texas to the north Atlantic coast.
    At that time thick forests swamps（沼泽） covered much of the earth’s surface. Great trees died and fell into the swamps. Then they rotted （腐烂）and new trees and plants grew on top of them. The process repeated itself for thousands of years. The rotted plants turned into a substance called peat（泥炭）, which is still forming today in many swamps.
    Meanwhile the land surface was changing. Movement in the earth’s crust (地壳) pushed up hills in some places, while elsewhere land sank. Swift rivers ran from the hills; heavy rains fell and the rivers overflowed, leaving muddy sand in the sunken wooded places and swamps. Oceans, too, poured in over the low-lying land, carrying sand that covered the peaty areas.
    The pressure of water and sand pressed the oxygen and hydrogen out of the peat, leaving carbon. Under constant pressure, the rotted material, containing a high percentage of carbon, formed gradually into coal.
    56. This main idea of the passage is about the ______.
    A. coal beds in the U.S.   B. earth’s history   C. formation of coal   D. swamp age
    57. When plants died, they _____.
    A. grew up again       B. fell into the water and rotted
    C. fell into coal beds    D. turned immediately to coal
    58. Hills were formed as a result of _____.
    A. movements of the earth’s crust       B. the remaining from swamps
    C. the remaining from swift rivers       D. ocean currents
    59. What is implied but not stated in the passage?
    A. Peat is still forming today.
    B. The formation of coal requires high pressure.
    C. The land surface changed during the coal age.
    D. The formation of coal was very rapid.

    Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers urged, "Barbara, be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience." How right they were! Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure, extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends.
    "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm," wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang in there when the going gets tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, "I can do it!" when others shout, "No, you can't!" It took years and years for the early work of Barbara McClintock, a geneticist（遗传学家）who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted. Yet she didn't let up on her experiments. Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
    We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such a youthful air, whatever their age. At 90, cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach（巴赫）. As the music flowed through his fingers, his bent shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes. As author and poet Samuel once wrote, "Years wrinkle（使生皱纹）the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul."
    Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money, title or power. Patricia Mallrath, retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her enthusiasm. She replied, "My father, a lawyer, long ago told me, I never made a penny until I stopped working for money."
    If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can do it as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville, Kan, was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended her depression（抑郁）that had troubled her for at least 30 years, and the quality of her work led one critic to say, "I am persuaded to call Layton a genius."
    We can't afford to waste tears on "might-have-beens". We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after "what-can-be." We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a backyard garden, the simple picture of a six-year-old, and the beauty of a rainbow.
    67. Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?
    A. Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
    B. If you don't have enthusiasm, you can achieve nothing.
    C. Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.
    D. Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.
    68. The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that ________.
    A. music can arouse people's enthusiasm
    B. enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed
    C. enthusiasm can make people feel young
    D. enthusiasm can keep people healthy
    69. How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm?
    A. Two.                  B. Three.                  C. Four.                D. Five.
    70. The author holds the view that ________.
    A. enthusiastic people will never get old
    B. enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
    C. enthusiasm is more important than experience
    D. enthusiasm can give people more success and fame
