    PART FOUR WRITING
    SECTION A
    Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram/Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.
    The Elysee Palace(爱丽舍宫) in France enjoys equal popularity in the world with the Buckingham Palace in the United Kingdom, the Kremlin in Russia as well as the White House in the U.S.A. It is the residence of the president of the French Republic and the symbol of the supreme authority in France.
    The Elysee Palace, with an area of 11,000 square meters, is at the eastern end of the Champs Elysee in the city of Paris and backed by a large and quiet garden of more than twenty thousand square meters. The main building of it, quite handsome and graceful, is a 2-story classical stone architecture of European style, flanked(两侧有) by two side buildings facing each other and with an extensive rectangular courtyard in the middle. There are altogether 369 halls and rooms of different sizes.
    The Elysee Palace, built in 1718, has a long history of nearly 300 years to date. This house was at first a private residence of a count named d’Evreau, so it was called Hotel d’Evreau. It had later gone through many changes and its owners had been changed for many times, but all people living in it were distinguished personages and high officials. The house was renamed Bonaparte Mansion when it was owned by Louis XV and Louis XVI successively(接连着，继续地)when they acted as emperors. Napoleon I signed his act of abdication(放弃)here when he had suffered crushing defeat in the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Napoleon III moved in the Mansion in 1848 when he was elected president, and the house became a Royal Palace when he proclaimed himself as emperor. The Third French Republic issued a law in 1873, designating(指定)officially the Elysee Palace as the residence of president of the French Republic. Over a hundred years since then, almost all the presidents of the French Republic worked and lived there. Starting from 1989, the Elysee Palace is open to the public every year in September on the French Castles Day.

    第三节任务型阅读（共5个空；每空1个词，每小题2分，满分10分）
    We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming (把…按能力分班)pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect for their total personality.
    We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
    In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
    Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.
    Develop the abilities of pupils:
    ●develop their full abilities, not their 71. ___________ ability
    ●value personal qualities
    ●. social skills

    ●    72.________ the pupils who are at the bottom of the top grade
    ●    rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability
    ●    only one aspect for pupils’ total personality
    		    73._________to pupils’ full abilities.
    ●     give them the opportunity to learn to cooperate,  to share, and to develop  leadership skills

    D
    Ellen Swallow Richards was the first woman to earn a bachelor’s degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). A chemist, social activist, teacher, and first woman member of the Institute of Engineering, she believed that housekeeping was a science. As a progressive thinker at the time, she thought that women needed to learn about money matters and have up-to-date information on cleanliness and nutrition. She encouraged women from all backgrounds to get the best education possible.
    Ellen was born in 1842 and was brought up in Massachusetts. A graduate of Vassar College in New York, she returned to New England to attend MIT. After her marriage to Professor Robert Richards, she worked in a laboratory at MIT, examining pollution of water sources in Massachusetts. Her work led to the creation of the first food-inspection (检验) laws of that state. She was instructor at MIT from 1884 until her death in 1911.
    Like other progressive thinkers of the time, Ellen was worried about problems of the poor and the effect of the environment on society. She considered the environment a key factor in quality of life. Within the family, as in the world at large, science was chief in tools used to help the poor. Science could help to manage money matters, keep a home safe and clean, and improve quality of life. Food properly cooked could be tasty, nutritious, and inexpensive. Better and cheaper food could protect the health and improve the lives of working-class families.
    Ellen created the science of housekeeping, now called home economics, and elevated（提升）it to a serious college subject. She worked tirelessly as a national leader in developing standards, materials, and teacher training for this new field. Her publications cover many subjects—from the chemistry of cooking and cleaning to the cost of living.
    57. According to the text, Ellen __________.
    A. provided new jobs for the poor            B. helped to create new kinds of food
    C. set up the field of home economics         D. created the ideas of food-inspection laws
    58. As a progressive thinker, Ellen __________.
    A. suggested people cook their own meals at home
    B. believed cheap food was better than expensive one
    C. advised women to get the best education possible
    D. considered money matters a key factor in quality of life
    59. Ellen believed that __________.
    A. poor families knew how to manage money
    B. families were well informed about good nutrition
    C. cheaper food could not protect people’s health
    D. families spent much on food but were not well nourished
    60. One can infer that, as a result of the efforts of people such as Ellen, __________.
    A. one may study home economics at a university for a career
    B. the pollution of water sources is no longer a problem
    C. most people today learn to cook at school
    D. science does not help much within the family as in the world

    D
    His first fight was for the equal rights of black people in South Africa. Then, as the first black president he fought to unite the country and organize the government. Now Nelson Mandela has set his sights on a new enemy, AIDS.
    On March 19 the 82-year-old, former president, hosted his second AIDS-awareness concert. He warned that 25 million people in Africa were already infected with the fatal disease.
    Mandela was born in a small village in South Africa in 1918. He was adopted (收养) by the chief of his tribe (部族) and could have been a chief himself and lived a happy country life.
    But he refused to be a chief when his people lived under racial discrimination ( 种族歧视). He decided to fight for equal rights for all the people in South Africa. Before 1990, under the country’s Racial Segregation Law (种族隔离法), colored and white people lived separately. Black people were treated unfairly even when taking a bus. Blacks had to stand at the back of the bus to make room for white people even when there were only a few of them on board.
    For his opposition (反对) to the system Mandela was arrested (被捕) and spent 27 years in prison. He was freed in 1990 and become the president of the country after the first elections were held in which everyone could vote.
    Mandela was not only a political fighter who attacked with speeches. He was also a trained boxer (拳击手) and fought in the ring when he was young.
    “ Although I did not enjoy the violence of boxing, I was interested in how one moved one’s body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat (撤退),” he wrote in his autobiography.
    As a skillful fighter, he chose music as his weapon against AIDS. He hopes to win another victory against AIDS.
    52．Nelson Mandela succeeded in doing the following except _____.
    A. winning the equal rights for the black people in South Africa
    B. uniting South Africa
    C. organizing a government in South Africa
    D. controlling the spread of AIDS
    53．If Nelson Mandela hadn’t fought against racial discrimination, he _____.
    A. could easily have been the president of South Africa
    B. could still have lived a happy life
    C. could have been in a difficult situation
    D. would have been an excellent boxer
    54．It can be inferred that Nelson Mandela _____.
    A. continues to help the black people with the political struggle
    B. is taking a position in a music group
    C. is taking on the world’s greatest fight against AIDS
    D. is preparing for the next election of president
    55．Which statement can best describe the life of Nelson Mandela?
    A. Struggle is his life.          B. Sports make his fame.
    C. Fight for equal rights.        D. Great fighter against government.

    C
    A poor chimney-sweeper, who had not enough money to buy a meal, stopped one hot summer day at noon before an eating-house, and remained regaling his nose with the smell of the victuals．The master of the shop told him several times to go away, but the sweeper could not leave savory smell, though unable to purchase the taste of the food．At last the cook came out of the shop, and taking hold of the sweeper, declared that, as he had been feeding upon the smell of his victuals (food and drink), he should not go away without paying half the price of a dinner．The poor fellow said that he neither could nor would pay, and that he would ask the first person who should pass, whether it was not an unreasonable and unjust demand．
    The case was referred to a policeman, who happened to pass at that moment．He said to the sweeper: “As you have been feasting one of your senses with the odor (smell) of this man’s meat, it is but just you should make him some recompense; therefore you shall, in your turn, regale (amuse) one of his senses, which seems to be more insatiable than your appetite．How much money have you?”
    “I have but two pence in all the world, sir, and I must buy me some bread．”
    “Never mind,” answered the officer, “take your two pence between your hands; now rattle (cause to make a lot of quick little noises)them loudly．”
    The sweeper did so, and the officer, turning to the cook, said, “Now, sir, I think he has paid you: the smell of your victuals regaled his nostrils(openings at the end of the nose); the sound of his money has tickled your ears．”
    This decision gave more satisfaction to the bystanders than to the cook, but it was the only payment he could obtain．
    66．The sweeper stopped one hot summer day at noon before an eating-house, because _______ .
    A．he wanted to regale his nose with the smell of the victuals
    B．he was hungry and he wanted to have dinner
    C．he was hungry but he had no enough money to buy a meal

    obviously _______ .
    A．reasonable     B．not fair  C．logical   D．proper
    68．We infer that the way that the policeman settled the problem was _______ .
    A．foolish        B．kind      C．clever    D．stupid
    69．The passage implied that _______ .
    A．it’s a pity that the cook did not get what he wanted
    B．the master of the shop and the cook were cool-hearted
    C．the cook was cruel

    （D）
    Read a whole book in English? Me?
    Yes, you. Believe it or not, that may be easier than you think. Not all classics are too difficult or complicated. So you’re not limited to the simplified versions. And the easier books are not all for children.
    Books in their original versions may send you to the dictionary. And you might not understand everything you read. But reading one from cover to cover will give you a real sense of accomplishment（成就）. The key is to find the right books. Let’s take a look at these.
    The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (C.S. Lewis)
    Stepping into an old wardrobe, four English schoolchildren find themselves in the magical world of Narnia. On this delightful land, they find friends among the many talking creatures. The children soon discover, however, that Narnia is ruled by the White Witch. Edmund, one of the children, falls under her power. Who can free Narnia? Only Aslan, the great and noble lion. He alone knows the Deeper Magic. But the children themselves must help fight the battle against the White Witch and those who serve her.
    The Old Man and the Sea (Ernest Hemingway)
    Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, hasn’t caught any fish in more than 80 days. Sailing far out from land, the old man hooks an enormous fish. That begins an agonizing three day battle. First he struggles against the great fish. Then he must fight off the sharks that circle the little boat and threaten to eat his fish. Exhausted and bleeding, the old man arrives back at shore. But his fish, his beautiful fish . . .
    Hemingway won the Nobel Prize for this superb story of strength and courage, of victory and regret.
    A Wrinkle in Time (Madeleine Lingle)
    Meg’s father, a U.S. government scientist, has been missing for many months. He had been experimenting with time travel when he mysteriously disappeared.
    Now Meg, her little brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calvin will try to rescue him. But first they must outwit the forces of evil they encounter（遇到） on their journey through time and space. Can they find Meg’s father before it’s too late?
    This novel is more than just a science fiction adventure. It’s an exploration of the nature of our universe.
    The Pearl (John Steinbeck)
    One day Kino, a poor Mexican pearl diver, finds a magnificent pearl. With it he dreams of buying a better life, new clothes and schooling for his son. Instead, it brings only evil. His wife pleads with him to get rid of it. "No," says Kino. "I will have my chance. I am a man." But when he kills a man who is trying to steal the pearl, Kino and his wife must run for their lives.This tale of dreams, justice and the power of greed is told simply and beautifully.
    The Long Winter (Laura Ingalls Wilder)
    It’s winter, 1880—1881, on America’s northern prairies. Mr. and Mrs. Ingalls and their four girls stay near the kitchen stove to keep warm. Heavy snowstorms cut them off even from neighbors. With the trains stopped, no supplies can reach the town. Food and fuel are running out. Day after day the girls must grind wheat for bread and twist hay to burn. At times they nearly lose the battle to keep their spirits up.
    This story provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of early American settlers.
    63. In the passage, the author intends to _______.
    A. recommend a few simplified versions of classics
    B. recommend a few original versions of classics
    C. tell us how to read an English book from beginning to end

    A
    Michael Phelps and his U.S. teammates crowned the greatest single Olympic performance Sunday morning with a win in the 4×100－meter medley relay(混合泳接力).
    The victory gave Phelps his eighth gold medal of the Beijing Olympics, the most golds ever won by an athlete at one Games. With gold No. 8, Phelps earned an unusual place in the Olympic record books.
    "There is no comparison in the swimming world for what Michael has done," said Gregg Troy, coach of U.S. swimmer Ryan Lochte, who finished third to Phelps in two races here in Beijing but also won gold alongside him in the 4×200－meter freestyle relay. It's hard to find comparisons even in the sports world overall. Phelps is solidly in the company of seemingly undefeatable superstars such as Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods.
    "I think years and years down the road we'll realize more and more how amazing he is and how special he really is." U. S. teammate Natalie Coughlin said. The 23－year－old from Baltimore capped a brilliant meet at the Water Cube. He set a world record in every event aside from the 100 butterfly which he narrowly won on Saturday, completing a program of 17 races in nine days.
    Phelps has won 14 Olympic gold medals and 16 total medals. He holds the record for most medals won by a man, surpassing Soviet gymnast Nikolai Andrianov, who won 15 from 1972－1980. Soviet female gymnast Larysa Latynina holds the record with 18.
    At the 2004 Athens Games, Phelps won six gold medals and two bronze. He has already said he'll swim in the 2012 London Games. Phelps' victories in Beijing include: 200－meter freestyle, 200 and 400 individual medleys, 100 and 200 butterfly, 4×200 free relay, 4×100 medley relay, and 4×100 free relay.
    41．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
    A．Phelps Plans To Attend 2012 London Games
    B．Phelps Wins 4×100－meter Medley Relay
    C．Phelps Writes Games Gold History
    D．Phelps Finishes His Competitions
    42．Why are Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods mentioned in the 3rd paragraph?
    A．To memorize the two heroes' contributions to the world.
    B．To indicate Phelps' great efforts to his championship.
    C．To attract the world's attention to the young Phelps.
    D．To emphasize Phelps' unique position in swimming.
    43．Which of the following is true of Phelps?
    A．Phelps has got the most gold medals in Beijing Olympic.
    B．Phelps has won 18 Olympic gold medals till now.
    C．Phelps won 8 gold medals at the Athens Games.
    D．Phelps defeated Nikolai Andrianov in Beijing.
    44．It can be inferred from the text that __________.
    A．Phelps is a swimming genius by nature
    B．Phelps succeeded in Athens at the age of 18
    C．Phelps has won the most golds all by himself
    D．Phelps will have a brilliant future in the 2012 London Games
