    To become a doctor in the United States, students usually attend four years of medical school after they complete college. Then these young doctors work in hospitals for several years to complete a training program called a residency(住院医生实习期).
    These medical residents provide hospitals with needed services in return for not much pay. They work under the supervision(管理) of medical professors and more experienced doctors. Medical residents treat patients . they carry out tests. They perform operations. They complete records. In hospitals with few nurses, residents also do work formerly done by nurses. Some medical residents work one-hundred or more hours in a single week. They often work for more than thirty-six hours at a time before they can rest.
    Critics (批评家) of this system say medical residents work too long and do not get enough res. They say these young doctors may be too tired to perform their medical duties effectively. Now, the government will limit the number of hours of work that residents can work. Most doctors in training will be limited to eighty-four hours of work each week. They will have work periods of no more than twenty-four hours at one time. They will have ten hours of rest between work periods.
    Medical residents will have one day each week when they do not have to work. Any work they accept outside their hospitals will be limited．Experienced doctors and medical professors will closely supervise the residents to make sure they are not too tired to work.
    Many medical residents welcomed the work limits. Others, however, said the new policy may interfere with patient care and their own medical education.

    III. 阅读 (共两节，满分40分)
    第—节阅读理解 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    Two-legged, humanoid (类人的) robots such as Honda Motor Co. Ltd’s ASIMO would likely have an easier time climbing up stairs inside homes than a robot that moves on wheels, developers say.
    But it will be some time before such devices make their way into people’s homes.
    “They may look smart, but they are still quite stupid,” Shimoyama said. “I don’t think they will ever be as smart as humans.”
    While safety is an obvious concern, robots also need to be sensitive to people’s needs.
    Researchers at Fujitsu Frontech Ltd and Fujitsu L       aboratories responsible for developing “Enon”, a guide and patrol (巡逻) robot designed for use in shopping malls and corporate facilities (公共场所), are working on this.
    Enon, which has a humanoid upper body but no legs, is equipped with a touch screen on its chest and space in its belly to carry loads weighting up to 10 kg.
    In guide mode, it will detect a newcomer and approach the person with a nod and a greeting: “Are you a visitor? Hello.”
    Visitors requiring directions can point to icons (图标) displayed on Enon’s chest screen. If the restroom icon is pressed, the screen will display a map that shows the way.
    The robot will then face and point in the direction of the restroom, although it won’t actually walk the visitor there.
    Enon is now in use at four locations in Japan, including a shopping mall near Tokyo. The main goal is to make it more helpful for the elderly.
    “People who work in the transportation sector often ask whether we can build a robot that will find elderly people who look lost in train stations, and ask them if they are all right,” said Toshihido Marita, director of Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd’s autonomous system laboratory. “Actually that is hard to do, very hard,” he said.
    41. The advantage of Honda Motor Co. Ltd’s ASIMO is that _________.
    A. it can do any housework for us       B. it can talk with patients or old people
    C. it can climb up stairs as humans      D. it can walk smoothly with its wheels
    42. According to Shimoyama, robots _________.
    A. can be made to do everything humans do 
    B. will be made as smart as humans in the future
    C. will remain as stupid as before
    D. can never compete with humans in intelligence
    43. Most important of all, a robot should be made _________ at present.
    A. safe and elegant                           B. safe and functional
    C. elegant and cheap                         D. sensitive and cheap
    44. Which of the following statements about “Enon” is NOT true?
    A. It can be used as a guide in hospitals. 
    B. It can help shoppers carry goods selected.
    C. It can be used to welcome guests in restaurants.
    D. It can be used to stop thieves in malls.
    45. Enon is mainly designed to help _________.
    A. old people           B. mall owners        C. tourists or newcomers   D. shoppers

    How do you feel after you've stayed up late to finish schoolwork? Or the day after a slumber party? Scientists now say that your answers to these questions may depend on your genes.
    Genes are stretches of DNA that work like an instruction manual for our cells. Genes tell our bodies and brains what to do. People have about 40,000 genes, and each gene can have different forms. So, for example, certain forms of some genes make your eyes blue. Other versions of those genes make your eyes brown.
    In a similar way, new research suggests that a gene called period3 affects how well you function without sleep. The discovery adds to older evidence that period3 helps determine whether you like to stay up late or get up early.
    The period3 gene comes in two forms: short and long. Everyone has two copies of the gene. So, you may have two longs, two shorts, or one of each. Your particular combination depends on what your parents passed on to you.
    Scientists from the University of Surrey in England studied 24 people who had either two short or two long copies of period3. Study participants had to stay awake for 40 hours straight. Then, they took tests that measured how quickly they pushed a button when numbers flashed on a screen and how well they could remember lists of numbers.
    Results showed that the people with the short form of period3 performed much better on these tests than the people with the long form did. In both groups, people performed worst in the early morning. That's the time when truck drivers and other night-shift workers say they have the most trouble concentrating.
    After the first round of experiments, participants were finally allowed to sleep. People in the group that performed well on the tests took about 18 minutes to nod off.
    People with the long period3 gene, by contrast, fell asleep in just 8 minutes. They also spent more time in deep sleep. That suggests that people with the long form of the gene need more and deeper sleep to keep their brains working at top form.
    小题1:We can know from the passage that genes can not ________.
    A．tell our bodies and brains what to do
    B．make our eyes blue or brown
    C．decide how well you work without sleep
    D．ensure whether you’re good at driving
    小题2:Which of the following statements about the period3 is wrong?
     
    A．It affects whether you like to stay up late or get up early.
    		B．It comes in two forms: short and long.
    		C．One has either two longs or two shorts of it.
    		D．Your parents determine what particular combination you have.
    小题3: People with the short form of period3__________.
     
    A．need to go to bed early and get up early
    		B．can work better than the people with long form of period3 without sleep
    C．take less time to fall asleep after they stay up late
    D．need more and deeper sleep to keep their brains working at top form
    小题4:What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．The Period3 GeneB．The Function of Genes
    C．Wake up, Sleepy GeneD．Stay up Late or Get up Early?

    B
    China is going green．In order to reduce air pollution and oil shortages, carmakers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market．Toyota’s hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week．Let’s have a look at the new car．
    Any vehicle is a hybrid run on a rechargeable battery and gas．Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gas engines．The gasoline engine provides 99 percent of the power when the car is going at a steady speed. A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when it needs to speed up．
    Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine．The first thing you notice is that it is quieter than a traditional car．At this point, the car’s gas engine is at rest．The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24km/h．If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gas being used, and no waste gas given off．
    The computer decides when to use the gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two．If you go over 24km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油门), you are telling the computer how fast you want to go．
    The electric motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries．And when driving at a high speed, the gas engine not only powers the car but also recharges the batteries．When you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator (发电机) to produce electricity to recharge the batteries．As a result, the car’s batteries will last for around 200,000 miles．
    66．The underlined sentence probably means ________.
    A．there will be more and more green land in China  
    B．China’s new cars are combinations of different green models
    C．China is still young and lacking in experience
    D．the environment is getting better in China
    67. What is the most important feature of hybrid cars?
    A. They are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gas.
    B. They have smaller engines than traditional gas ones.
    C. They only use 99 percent of their power to run up hill.
    D. They are much quieter than traditional cars.
    68. We can know from the story that ________.
    A. the gas engine recharges the batteries as well as powering the car
    B. using the brake suggests that the gas engine should work
    C. the car’s batteries will last for around 200,000 miles without being recharged
    D. the batteries can be recharged at any time you want
    69. The author writes the passage mainly to________.
    A. announce plans to develop hybrid vehicles for the Chinese market
    B. let people know how to save their gas when driving a car
    C. teach people how to drive a hybrid car
    D. introduce a new kind of “green” car
    70．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
    A．The hybrid car is environmentally friendly．
    B．The hybrid car is unable to get itself recharged．
    C．The hybrid car has been made in mass．
    D．The hybrid car can decide what power to use

    Our sun is a star, and nine worlds move round it. Worlds like these are planets (行星).
    But there are other stars, other suns. Not only thousands of them, but millions of them. Do different stars have planets? We can see the planets round our own sun. But we haven’t seen any more. The stars are too far away from us. Stars give out (发出)light, but the planets don’t have any light of their own. So we can’t see them. They’re too far, and too dark.
    Still, we can tell that some stars have planets. While a big planet goes round, it pulls its star to one side. And sometimes we can see this, Then we know that the star has a planet.
    For example, Barnard’s Star（巴纳德星）is a small red star. And it is the quickest star in the universe. But sometimes it moves slower, and then quicker again. We have know Barnard’s Star for many years, and now we are sure it has a planet.

    New technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk（收缩）. It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communication’s equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills.
    Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic(国内的) business efforts.
    Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive(行政的) ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superior will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more common.
    Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.
    English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate(候选人) the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.
    The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients(客户) over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.
    小题1:What is the author’s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment?
    A．Critical.B．Indifferent.C．Negative.D．Positive.
    小题2:With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, business people_________.
    A．have to get familiar with modern technology
    B．are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations
    C．are placing more importance on their overseas business
    D．are eager to work overseas
    小题3: In this passage, “out of sight and out of mind” (Para. 3) probably means _________.
    A．being unable to think properly for lack of insight
    B．being totally out of touch with business at home
    C．missing opportunities for promotion when abroad
    D．leaving all care and worry behind
    小题4:According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today?
    A．Connections with businesses overseas.B．Ability to speak the client’s language.
    C．Technical know-how.D．Business experience.

    The great Alaskan explorer John Muir once wrote that to have dinner with a glacier (冰川) on a sunny day is an excellent thing. It is better to sleep beside one, on an Antarctic island,  with just a sleepifig bag for warmth and the sky as your tent.
    Our camp-out was in early January of this year on Danco Island, along the Antarctic Peninsula.  Midway through a 10-day Antarctic journey, conditions were near perfect.  We started our voyage from the Akademik Ioffe in Zodiacs,  landing on the wide beach with its fist-sized rocks.  At the height of the Antarctic summer, the shore was clear of snow, with plenty of room for the 40 adventurers to spend the night.
    Danco Island was charted in 1898 by the Belgian explorer Adrien de Gerlache, who was the first to prove that you could overwinter in Antarctica and survive.  De Gerlache paved the way for Lt.  Robert Scott's first expedition in 1901.  De Gerlache mapped the archipelago (群岛).  He later named the island after his team member mile Danco,  a geophysicist who died that winter.  For one year in the mid-1950s, Danco was known as Base O by the British, who kept a scientific research station there, although all that. remains of it is a foundation and a pile of coal.
    Our expedition was organized by Australian tour operator Peregrine Adventures. The weather was extraordinary -- sunny with daytime temperatures of about 1't2.  The camping was easy and accessible to all ages.  Sleeping under the stars in Antarctica,  in just a sleeping bag is pretty amazing.
    1. Whom did Adrien de Gerlache have a direct effect on?
    A. John Muir.           B. Lt. Robert Scott.
    C. The tourists.          D. The author. 
    2. What was Danco Island named after?
    A. A place.             B. A glacier.
    C. A person.           D. An ocean.
    3. It can be inferred from the passage that        .
    A. old people can't go 'camping in Antarctica
    B. the author went to the Antarctica in winter
    C. John Muir might have visited an Antarctic island
    D. Lt. Robert Scott built a station in the Antarctic
    4. What would be the best title for the passage?
    A. Danco Island
    B. An expedition to Antarctica
    C. Explorers of Antarctica
    D. Sleep under the stars in Antarctica
