    　 As we know, Human beings each have unique brains. The brain is of the greatest importance to the body. It is the boss of the body．Your eyes，ears，nose，and skin tell your brain what is going on around you．Other parts of your body tell your brain what is going on inside of you．Your brain takes in the signals．It tells your body what to do with them．When you touch fire，your skin tells your brain that your finger is too hot．Your brain tells you to move your finger．All these happen very fast．Your brain also controls your breathing，blinking，and heartbeat．It controls your feelings and thoughts too．
    　　Humans have the most developed brain of all animals．Yet it is not the largest brain．The human brain weighs three pounds．The brain of an elephant weighs 11 pounds．So the largest brain is not always the best brain．In people，a larger brain does not mean a clever person．

    I spent two months with an American family last year when I studied in America.
    It is said, “The best house is in America, the best wife is in Japan, and the best food is in China.” So I took pride （自豪）and __21__ to __22__ “the best food” for my American family. Each day, regardless of my poor skill of cooking, I would do something in __23__ way: changing the dishes’ colour, the meat’s type or the soup’s style. （风味）Thus, my American friends could discover the __24__ of eating Chinese food. Because of my “__25__” job, I was often rewarded （奖励） by their __26__ of appreciation （感激）such as “very delicious”, “excellent”, etc.
    But the joke was here: Yesterday, I cooked Sichuan style __27__ for dinner. I was __28__ at my achievement.（成就）
    When all the family members arrived at the table, they first looked __29__ at the fish, then looked at me. “Why do all the fish have their __30__?” they asked, “It’s terrible!”
    Terrible or beautiful? I don’t know. But I __31_ know that fish heads are delicious. The __32__ is the best part of fish; in __33__ only the respectable （受敬重的）guest can have the special honour of __34__ it.
    Another __35__ thing is: The American friends often said to me “__36__” as they __37__ fruits or other things. According to Chinese tradition I would simply smile in answer to their kindness __38__ actually helping myself to any of the food. __39__, I said “help yourself” to them whenever I brought home fruits. Dear me, no matter how much or how often I brought home food, as long as it was nice to their taste, they __40__ hesitated （犹豫）to use their hands to “help themselves” until all was finished

    第三部分：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、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    One of today’s hottest topics among women (and to an extent among men too now) is anti aging and how to reverse the signs of age. The beauty industry has responded to this by offering a wide collection of anti aging creams and other anti aging products aimed at all pocketbooks, ranging from economical to highly priced.
    And the question is “do any of these often much-vaunted(被过度吹嘘的) anti aging creams actually work?” And if they do, how precisely do they perform their miracles?
    Well, the appropriate response to that is that they do work—after a fashion. There certainly are anti aging creams available for a relatively modest price that will reduce the appearance of wrinkles in a comparatively short period of regular application. But this really is the limit of their powers: they won’t actually undo skin damage or eradicate(根除) all signs of age; they will simply modify them, some more effectively than others.
    The way they work is like so: they remove upper layers of dead skin cells and make deeper layers absorb water, serving to plump them up and make them look fuller and healthier. But since such anti aging creams only go skin deep, as it were, skin damage will reappear once you stop using the anti aging wrinkle(皱纹) cream.
    This means fairly heavy regular use, which might be costly depending on your choice of product. However, if you can afford it or think it’s worth the cost, it won’t be such an issue. After all, what woman wants to look older than her years when looking good is so tied up with many women's self-esteem(自尊) and sense of identity.
    A compromise(折中) solution for those on a tighter budget is to use the cheaper creams. In addition, it’s always wise to be a little experimental to make sure you end up with the one that suits your skin best.
    So, to sum up: an anti wrinkle face cream will work within limits, depending on your objective.
    41.   This passage mainly tells us something about _____.
    A. anti aging creams                         B. anti aging foods
    C. anti wrinkle face                          D. anti wrinkle skin
    42.   According to the author, we can infer _____.
    A. anti aging creams must reverse the signs of age
    B. skin damage must not reappear after using creams
    C. anti aging creams should be properly used
    D. skin damage will disappear forever after using creams
    43.   The benefits from anti aging creams are the following except that _____.
    A. they remove upper layers of dead skin cells
    B. they make deeper layers absorb water
    C. they make layers look fuller and healthier
    D. they make wrinkle faces rough
    44.   The meaning of the underlined phrase “on a tighter budget” is _____.
    A. having a larger amount of money
    B. having a smaller amount of money
    C. having no money at all
    D. having a lot of money
    45.   Fairly heavy regular use will make you _____.
    A. spend much money on your choice of product
    B. easily afford your choice of product
    C. think your choice of product wrong
    D. believe your choice of product right

    Finding something to do during the school holidays isn't always easy, but one mum has set up a new website to help families find activities and events in Norfolk.
    Fiona Anthony of Bawburgh, near Norwich, was persuaded by her friends to set up the website, Info4Families, when they noticed she always knew what events were happening in the county（县）.
    "I am always looking for things to keep my children occupied and Norfolk has such a lot going on," she said.
    Detail（细节）from Info4Families     
    "But I found it quite difficult to get information about events and activities for children and families, as there was no central information point and it would often involve collecting leaflets（传单） and checking notice boards at different places.
    "So I decided to set up a website which would allow people to find things to do, without leaving home," she added.
    Fiona was also concerned that some events she had booked had to be cancelled（取消） because not enough people wanted to go.
    "It is a real shame that some parents can’t find the events and some event organisers don’t get the numbers they need. I want to help bring the two together," said Fiona.
    The website gives details on regular, one-off and free events, and includes activities which children can do on their own or with the family.
    Parents can look for activities by category（种类）and by age so that they can find events suitable for their children’s interests and needs. The site also links to local places of interest, such as libraries, museums and cinemas.
    小题1: Fiona Anthony set up the website __________.
    A．to tell people how to spend their holidays at home
    B．to design some activities for event organizers
    C．to help people choose activities and events they’re interested in
    D．to make money by providing some useful information
    小题2:The underlined word “occupied” in the third paragraphs probably means “________”.
    A．busyB．happyC．freeD．tired
    小题3:From the website Info4Families, we can easily access to the following websites about Norfolk except ________.
    A．museumsB．schoolsC．cinemasD．libraries
    小题4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Not all the events on the website are free of charge.
    B．Fiona always knew what events were happening in her country.
    C．Children must take part in the activities provided by the website together with their parents.

    Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertiser, hoping to sell their products.
    The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item(商品) that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.
    It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.
    小题1:What does the author try to argue in Paragraph 1?
    A．The exercise of rights is a luxury.
    B．The practice of choice is difficult.
    C．The right of choice is given but at a price.
    D．Choice and right exist at the same time.
    小题2:Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?
    A．Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.
    B．People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.
    C．Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.
    D．Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the rage of choice.
    小题3:By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that _______.
    A．advanced products meet the needs of people
    B．products of the latest design flood the market
    C．competitions are fierce in high-tech industry
    D．everyday goods need to be replaced often
    小题4:What is this passage mainly about?
    A．The variety of choices in modern society.
    B．The opinions on people’s right in different countries
    C．The Problems about the availability of everyday goods.
    D．The helplessness in purchasing decisions

    THE Little Mermaid, a fairy tale by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen is well known. It tells of a young mermaid who falls in love with a prince.

    Visitors to the pavilion will find the Little Mermaid in the water from Copenhagen’s harbor---just as she is in her home city. Two decades ago the harbor was filthy with pollution from factories. Today it is so clean that local people will sometimes take a swim in it. Visitors to the pavilion will be able to take off their socks and shoes and dip their toes in the water.
