    第II卷 （两部分，共35分）
    第一部分 任务型阅读
    请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。
    注意：每空格1个单词。
    Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV.
    The first difference is that a policeman’s real life revolved round criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.
    Little of his time is spent in chatting. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.
    Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminal is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks, little effort is spent on searching.
    Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence.
    A third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the unpleasant pressures: first, as members of a police force, they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with the law. Secondly, as expensive public servants, they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.
    If the detective has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simple-minded — as he see it — of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead of eliminating crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detective feel, is that nine-tenths of their work is re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical(愤世嫉俗的).
     
    		Police in 1.________ world
    		Police on TV
    Knowledge of 2.___ law

    Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become “computer-literate”. But not all experts agree that this is a good idea.
    One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David Tebbutt, the founder of Computertown UK. Although many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer, David does not see it that way. He says that Computertown UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to people and make them “people-literate”.
    David Tebbutt thinks Computertowns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he insists there is an important difference between the two. The clubs are for people who have some computer knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who are happier going to Computertowns where there are computers for them to experiment on, with experts to encourage them and answer any questions they have. They are not told what to do. They find out. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask. People don't have to learn computer terms(术语), but the experts have to explain in plain language. The computers are becoming “people-literate”.
    小题1:Which of the following is David Tebbutt's idea on the relationship between people and
    computers?
    A．Computer learning should be made easier.
    B．There should be more computer clubs for experts.
    C．People should work harder to master computer use.
    D．Computers should be made cheaper so that people can afford them.
    小题2:We can infer from the text that “computer-literate” means ______.
    A．being able to afford a computer
    B．being able to write computer programs
    C．working with the computer and finding out the value
    D．understanding the computer and knowing how to use it
    小题3:The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to the idea that Computertowns ___.
    A．help to set up more computer clubsB．bring people to learn to use computers
    C．bring more experts to work togetherD．help to sell computers to the public
    小题4:David Tebbutt started Computertown UK with the purpose of ______.
    A．making better use of computer expertsB．improving computer programs
    C．increasing computer salesD．popularising computers

    Such remarkable change in people’s viewpoint may well explain the gradual ___60___ of single-sex schools.  The aim of education is to stimulate imagination, encourage free thinking and keep alive various interests.  But the single-sex school follows the same regulations and ___61___ a set of separate subjects for males or females.  In single-sex schools, instead of being offered a rich expansion of experience, students have access to ___62___ knowledge.  Such education harms individual freedom and kills the possibility for a young person to develop into a(n) ___63___ human.  Furthermore, such sexual distinction is also dangerous as it breaks up the sense of community by ___64___ people into two sex groups, which eventually damages the development of human civilization.

    E
    The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented . Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral rights of others . So the massacre (大屠杀) on the road may be regarded as a social problem .
    In fact , the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people just ordinary people acting carelessly , you might say . But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damage to others . A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence (疏忽).
    Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver . Emotional upsets can distort drivers’ reactions , slow their judgment , and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be evident . The experts warn that it is important for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one’s emotion under control .
    Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers . Street walkers regularly violate (违反) traffic regulations , they are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents , and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road .
    Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years . Safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture (制造业) and through periodic road-worthiness inspections . In addition , speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures , the accident rate has decreased . But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave . The only real and lasting solution , say the experts , is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration . Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road .
    1．What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage ?
    A．To show that the motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention .
    B．To promote understanding between careless drivers and street walkers .
    C．To discuss traffic problems and propose possible solutions .
    D．To warn drivers of the importance of safe driving .
    2．Why does the author mention the psychological condition of the driver in Paragraph Three ?
    A．To give an example of the various reasons for road accidents .
    B．To show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy .
    C．To show some of the inaccurate estimations by researchers .
    D．To illustrate the hidden tensions in the course of driving
    3．The following is mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents except       .
    A．careless bicycle riders     B．mindless people walking in the street
    C．irresponsible drivers       D．irresponsible manufacturers of automobiles
    4．Which of the following best reflects the author’s attitude toward a future without traffic accident problems ?
    A．Doubtful yet still longing for .       B．Happy and rather confident .
    C．Surprised and very pleased .   D．Disappointed and deeply worried .

    When important events are happening around the world, most people turn to traditional media sources, such as CNN and BBC for the news．However, during the war in Iraq in 2003, many people followed the war from the point of view of an unknown Iraqi citizen who called himself “Salam Pax ” ．(Salam Pax means peace)
    Salam Pax wrote a diary about everyday life in Baghdad during the war, and posted it on his website．Pax’s online diary was a kind of website known as a “blog”．Blogs are online diaries, usually kept by individuals, but sometimes by companies and other groups of people．They are the fastest growing types of website on the Internet．
    A blog differs from a traditional website in several ways．Most importantly, it is updated much more regularly．Many blogs are updated every day, and some are updated several times a day．Also, most blogs use special software or websites, which can help ordinary people easily set up and start writing their own blogs．
    There are many different kinds of blogs．The most popular type is an online diary of links where the blog writer surfs the Internet and then posts links to sites or news articles that they find interesting , with a few comments about each one ．Other types are personal diaries, where the writer talks about their life and feelings．Sometimes these blogs can be very personal．
    There is another kind of blogging, called “moblogging ”, short for “ mobile blogging ”．
    Mobloggers use mobile phones with cameras to take photos, which are posted instantly to the Internet．The use of mobile phones in this way made the headlines in Singapore when a high school student posted a movie he had taken of a teacher shouting at another student on the Internet．Many people were shocked by what the student did, and wanted phones with cameras to be banned from schools．
    Many people think that as blogs become common, news reporting will rely less on big media companies, and more on ordinary people posting news to the Internet．They think that then the news will be less like a lecture, and more like a conversation, where any one can join in．

    Accidents happen almost daily. Some accidents are minor and some are serious but others may be fatal. We read about such accidents nearly every day in the newspapers. It is wrong for people to think that accidents occur only on the roads or highways, or even at worksites. Home accidents are just as common. Because very few home accidents are reported, people tend to think that there are few accidents which happen in homes.
    There have been many cases where people fall to their deaths from high-rise flats. Children often fall from staircases while coming down the stairs. Old people may slip on wet or slippery floors if they are not careful.
    Nowadays there are a lot of modern electrical appliances such as rice-cookers, electric irons, and kettles which make life easy for the modern housewives. These appliances can kill if they are not used in the proper way.
    Gas stoves used for cooking are also dangerous if they are not properly handled. They may cause burns or, in more serious cases, they may even cause fires.
    But all such accidents can be prevented if we are careful and obey simple rules of safety. For example, it is unwise for people to try repairing their own electrical appliances if they do not know how. It is safer for them to get their faulty appliances repaired by a qualified electrician.                                       
    61. Accidents take place_______.
    A. mostly in homes                          B. mostly on roads and highways

    A. They help modern housewives a lot.

    Experts believe that there are about 40,000 different types of jobs in the world. Choosing the right one is a difficult job in itself.
    “Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people end up in a job that they are not suited to. “Chance” may play a more important part than “decision”. So here are a few steps to help you think about jobs, which you might enjoy doing after school or university.
    First, it is important to recognize what kind of person you are and which special qualities make you different from everyone else.
    To examine your skills and abilities even further, ask yourself this question: in the following three areas — skills with people, skills with information or skills with things — which are your best skills?
    You may have noticed something while you were doing this task. The point is that there is a difference between an interest and a skill. If you like are and enjoy looking at pictures, it is an interest. But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that is a skill. The best job is one that uses your skills n something that you are interested in. in addition to this, it is an advantage if you believe that a particular job is worth doing in the world.
    After that, the next step is research. To find out as much as possible about different kinds of work, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers. Ask your friends about the work they do. If you are interested in banking, it is better to talk to a bank clerk who is twenty –four, rather than a bank manager who is sixty –four. Do not rely on your parents’ friends for information. A younger person will be able to describe a normal day at work and tell you about the interesting or boring things when you first start working.
    Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life, so find something that you enjoy doing.
    61. The difference between “finding a job” and “choosing a job” lies in _______.
    A. finding a job is a decision while choosing a job is a chance
    B. finding a job is more important than choosing a job.
    C. A job that you find is one who is more suitable for you than one that you choose
    D. A job that you choose is based on your decision and suits you while one that you find often isn’t.
    62. What is the first step to find a job that suits you well?
    A. The first step is to recognize what kind of person you are and which special qualities make you different from everyone else.
    B. The first step is to find out as much as possible about different kinds of work.
    C. The first step is to ask your friends about the work they do.
    D. The first step is to consider your parents’ advice.
    63. All the things are ways of research about different kinds of work except______.
    A. Go to library and refer to books.
    B. Turn to your friends to help.
    C. Turn to your parents’ friends for advice.
    D. Talk to a younger person for information
    64. If you are interested in banking, you should talk to a bank clerk who is twenty –four instead of a bank manager who is sixty –four because_________.
    A. they will be able to describe a special day at work.
    B. they are full-time workers and can tell you about the interesting or boring things at work.
    C. it is easier to find a bank clerk than to find a bank manager. 
    D. they are easier to get along with
    65. Where does the passage probably appear?

    While many modern forms of communication like phone calls, e-mails, and letters, are extremely convenient, in my opinion, nothing beats speaking to another person face to face.
    The first and most obvious advantage that a face-to-face communication has over a letter and
    e-mail is that there is the ability to interactively converse. If the sender of a letter or an email does not write clearly, then much time must be spent in clearing up the misunderstanding. In a face-to-face conversation, misunderstandings are easily dealt with because of the interactive nature of it.
    I would still argue that the face-to-face conversation is better because you can see the other person. Not all communication is verbal; the meaning of much of what we say depends on our body language and the tone of voice. Joking and irony are particularly difficult to express and enjoy without seeing the expression on someone’s face, or watching the movements of their body.
    Finally, if the goal of communication is to maintain or deepen the relationship with someone, the face-to-face communication offers the choice of communication by touch even if we could communicate by the video. Trust and respect between business partners can be established with a firm handshake. No amount of body language can convey the excitement of a high five between friends, and no number of words can communicate the comforting embrace of a loved one. Touch is the first basic method of our human relationship before spoken language, and it is only available when people communicate face to face.
    56. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
    A. How to communicate more effectively.
    B. The importance of using body language in communication
    C. Face-to-face communication, the best way of communicating
    D. Comparison of different communication forms
    57.Which of the following is NOT true in the passage?
    A. A letter or e-mail is always written unclearly.
    B. Business partners can show trust through a firm handshake.
    C. During a conversation, body language is also important.
    D. The face-to-face conversation is a way of communication.
    58.The author’s attitude towards forms of communication is       .
    A.Modern forms of communication like phone calls and e-mails are extremely convenient.
    B. Traditional ways of communication are out of date and should fall into disuse.
    C. Face-to-face communication can only be used among strangers.
    D.Face-to-face communication has advantages over the other ways of communication.
    59. What does the underlined word“maitain”in last paragraph mean?
    A .keep            B. stand          C. destroy             D. reduce
