    B
    The mystery had reached its climax (高潮) The man had undoubtedly been murdered. However, no one present knew who could have killed such a kind person. It was therefore time to call in the great detective, who gave one searching glance at the corpse (尸体), and then used a microscope.
    "Aha!" he jumped as he picked a hair off the dead man's coat "The mystery is a mystery no longer. We have only to find the man who lost this hair, and the criminal will be in our hands. " The chain of logic was complete, and the detective started to do his search.
    For four days and four nights he moved unobserved through the streets of New York, scanning closely every face, looking for a man who had lost a hair. On the fifth day he discovered a man pretending to be a tourist and his head was enveloped in a cap reaching below his ears. The man was about to board the Gloritania, and the detective lost no time in following him on board.
    "Arrest him!" shouted the detective, and then, drawing himself to his full height, he took out the hair. "This is his," said the great detective, "and it proves his guilt. "
    "Remove his hat," ordered the ship's captain firmly.
    It was discovered that the man had no hair.
    "Aha!" said the great detective without a moment's hesitation. "He has committed not one murder, but about one million!"
    60. Before the great detective arrived, it seemed that______.
    A. the man had died of natural causes   B. no one could possibly have murdered the man
    C. the mystery would be easy to solve  D. the dead man was covered with hair
    61. The detective declared the mystery would be solved soon______.
    A. after he found the murderer      B. before he used the microscope
    C. after he found a hair           D. before he looked at the corpse
    62. The tone of this story is______.
    A. scientific       B. serious         C. educational      D. humorous
    63. The main idea of this story is that______.
    A. those using logic are not always logical   B. mysteries can be solved by observation
    C. detectives can never be trusted          D. guilt can be proved scientifically

    第二卷(三部分，共39分)
    第一节任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
    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。
    Wondering how many calories the banana cream pie on your plate has? Some Japanese have a novel way to find out: Photograph it with a cellphone and send the image to an expert. With cellphones becoming common in Japan and rising concern over expanding waistlines, health-care providers will allow the calorie-conscious people to send photos of their meals to nutritionists (营养学家) for advice.
    Public health insurance offices in Osaka in Western Japan have launched the service on a trial basis. About 100 cardiac (心脏病的) patients signed up in the first year, followed by diabetes and obesity patients in the second. “Japanese have been getting fatter, especially men in their 20s and 30s. There is concern over what they learned about nutrition when they were younger,” the Osaka official, Satomi Onishi, said. “We’re hoping that this program can help us deal with the problem.”
    Osaka is using a system developed by Asahi Kasei Corp. The system is operating among about 150 health-care providers and local governments around the country Nutritionists can work with photos from one day’s meals to several weeks’ worth. Results come back in three days. People can also log on a website to get further information.
    Dr Yutaka Kimura has developed a similar system at Kansai Medical University’s Hirakata Hospital, also in Osaka. Five patients have taken part in the programme, which costs $37 to join and $21 per month. Patients photograph meals over the course of three to seven days, and a nutritionist e-mails advice to them. “Patients used to fill in meal logs, but people tend to forget things or underestimate (低估) their portions (份),” Kimura said. “Photographing meals and e-mailing them can be easier and get more accurate results.”
    As Japanese have turned to bigger portions and more meat and fried foods, obesity and related illnesses such as high blood pressure have become a rising concern. The Health Ministry estimated last year that more than half of Japanese men and about one in five women between 40 and 70 years old were at the increased risk of heart disease, type II diabetes and other diseases because of obesity. With the Health Ministry hoping to see a 25% reduction in the number of people at the risk of these diseases by 2015, Osaka officials hope the cellphone program will help.

    		Cellphone cameras help Japanese lose (69) _____.

    		Another system has also developed in which advice is (77) _____ to patients after a nutritionist gets (78) _____ amount  of nutrition from the photographed meals over the course of three to seven days.
    Further information can be got by (76) _____ on a website.

    Many people think a telephone is a necessity (必需品). But I think it is a pest (有害的事物) and a time waste. Very often you find it impossible to escape from it. If you have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you least want it to ring; when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation or when you are just going out, or when you are in your bath. Are you strong-minded enough to ignore it? You are not. You think there may be some important news or message for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you ever rushed from the bathroom or the bed, only to be told that you are a wrong number?
    But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone directory, and you can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isn’t it important to have a telephone in case of sudden emergency—illness, accident, or fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a country with a large population like England one is seldom far from a telephone in case of emergency.
    I think perhaps I had better try to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different cases—if I were a wealthy and powerful business person, for instance, or badly ill and had to lie in bed, I might find a telephone a necessity. But then if I were a taxi driver I should find a car as necessity. Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular talent: one is mechanical (机器的) invention, the other literature. My own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them, for I have just been handed a piece of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.
    Title: The Telephone
    Different (71) ________ about it
    		Many people
    		It is (72) ________ when one wants to make a call, especially in time of (73) ________.
    The author
    		It may (74) ________ time and even be         (75) ________.
    Not everyone, (76) ________ a business person or a sick person who has to stay in bed, needs it.
    I don’t need it because my job is writing.
    (77) ________ with it
    		It always seems to (78) ________ when one is doing something else or doesn’t want it to ring.
    Almost (79) ________ can ignore it even if they want to.
    One (80) ________ to answer it only to find that he is misdialed.

    (C)
    I love it at night. It’s peaceful. And when it cools down I sometimes do some ironing. I don’t really care for it. I work full-time and too busy for most housework. I remember the old woman who taught me to iron. I was about 15 and somehow got a live-in job taking care of a woman who had been an able-bodied, healthy woman until the accident that caused her to be paralyzed（瘫痪）.
    The woman had an electric wheelchair. She could move her head and arms but not her hands or fingers. She had this clamp（夹子）attached to her arm and I’d have to open it and put a cup or a pencil in it and then she could move it. She would tell me how to do things. She would instruct me in great detail on the correct way to do things. Her home was perfect and beautiful. She would follow me around in her electric wheelchair to make sure I did everything exactly right. I’m sure she had been a perfect homemaker. She would have me fold everything, including socks and pillow cases. I would complain silently and wish terrible things on her. She taught me the right way to make the bed and tuck (塞)the corners. I know sometimes she’d get frustrated and impatient with me. I knew she wanted to grab it and do it herself. But she never yelled（大叫）or scolded. Only insisted I do it right. I didn’t like it much, but I did it.
    Today I can iron pretty well. I know where to start on a shirt, the right way to do the collar and sleeves. Now that I think about it, I don’t think she is an old lady. I think she might have been about my age now. Anyway, when I iron, I think of her and silently thank her for all the things I learned.
    63. From the passage we can infer that the writer of the passage now is ________.
    A.a housewife       B.a full-time worker   C.a clothes maker    D.a college student
    64. The writer used to take care of the lady because ______.
    A.she wanted to learn how to do housework
    B.she was a relative of the disabled woman
    C.she wanted to earn some money while sleeping and eating there
    D.she had to do something in return to the lady for her kindness
    65. When the lady taught the writer how to do housework, the little girl was ______.
    A. eager to learn   B. unwilling to learn   C. forced to learn   D. careful to learn
    66. What’s the writer’s attitude towards the lady now?
    A. Sympathetic    B. Fearful    C. Hateful   D. Grateful

    阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
    A
    One stormy night many years ago, an elderly man and his wife entered the hall of a small hotel in Philadelphia. Trying to get out of the rain, they came to the front desk hoping to get some shelter for the night.
    “Could you possibly give us a room here?” the husband asked.
    The clerk, a friendly man with a winning smile, looked at the couple and explained that there were three conventions in town.“All of our rooms are taken,” the clerk said.“But I can’t send a nice couple like you out into the rain at one o’clock in the morning. Would you perhaps be willing to sleep in my room? It’s not exactly a suite, but it will be good enough to make you folks comfortable for the night.”
    When the couple declined, the young man pressed on.“Don’t worry about me; I’ll make out just fine.” the clerk told them. So the couple agreed.
    As he paid his bill the next morning, the elderly man said to the clerk,“You are the kind of manager who should be the boss of the best hotel in the United States. Maybe someday I’ll build one for you.” The clerk looked at them and smiled. The three of them had a good laugh. As they drove away, the elderly couple agreed that the helpful clerk was indeed exceptional, as finding people who are both friendly and helpful isn’t easy.
    Two years passed. The clerk had almost forgotten the incident when he received a letter from the old man. It recalled that stormy night and enclosed a round—trip ticket to New York, asking the young man to pay them a visit.
    The old man met him in New York, and led him to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 34th street. He then pointed to a great new building there, a pale reddish stone, with turrets and watchtowers thrusting up to the sky.“That,” said the older man,“is the hotel I have just built for you to manage.”“You must be joking,” the young man said.“I can assure you I am not,” said the older man, a sly smile playing around his mouth.
    The older man’s name was William Waldorf Astor, and that magnificent structure was the original Waldorf—Astoria Hotel. The young clerk who became its first manager was George C.Boldt. This young clerk never foresaw the turn of events that would lead him to become the manager of one of the world’s most glamorous hotels.
    51.The purpose of the author writing this story is to_______.
    A.give people a good laugh                         B.cover some facts
    C.promote the business of Waldorf—Astoria Hotel       D.deliver a lesson
    52.Which of the statements about the story is NOT true?
    A.The story took place at about one a.m..
    B.The old couple was too poor to afford a luxurious room.
    C.The clerk was willing to help those in need.
    D.The clerk received an unexpected invitation from the old man.
    53.The underlined word “conventions” in Para.3 can be replaced by_______?
    A.rooms       B.suites            C.meetings         D.hotels
    54.Which of the following proverbs suits the story the best?
    A.Every little thing helps.                                           B.Make hay while the sun shines.
    C.Man proposes； God disposes(处理,决定).                   D.One good turn deserves another.

    B
    By now there were several people standing around me, my mom, and the little broken bush(灌木丛).
    “Son, would you like me to call an ambulance?” some men said.
    “No,” my mom yelled. “I’m fine. Please go away!”
    “She’s learning to ride,” I tried to explain to all those who were not going to go away.
    “Oh, all right!” My mom sat up and brushed the grass and leaves off her sweater. Finally she stood up. Everyone began to clap(鼓掌), and my mom’s face turned bright pink.
    “Thank you very much, but as you can see, I’m just fine.” Mom took a few steps around to show them that she wasn’t hiding a broken leg. Everyone clapped again and then went on their way.
    “Enough for today?” I asked hopefully.
    “No,” she said in a way that surprised me. “I almost had it, and then I let myself get scared. I know I can do it this time!” Now this sounded more like my mom, for I’d never known my mom to be afraid of anything before. I helped her pull the bike out of the bush and push it up the hill.
    She didn’t look quite so pale this time. She got on the bike again and went down the hill. I ran down the hill after her. She had ridden quite a way ahead of me when she looked back over her shoulder, smiling. Then she gave me a thumbs-up(翘拇指) sign.
    “No, no!” I yelled. “Use both hands!”
    But it was too late. Again.
    “Mom! Are you hurt?” I ran up to her in the grass.
    This time she was laughing. “Did you see me? I did it! I really did it!” Then she stopped and looked at me. “I mean,” she said, “we did it.”
    60. From the passage we can learn that the author ____.

    B. went on a picnic with his mother by bike

    C. thought it was a terrible traffic accident
    D. worried about the little broken bush
    62. The underlined word “it” (in paragraph 8) most probably refers to ____.
    A. the ambulance   B. the sweater    
    C. the skill of riding a bike   D. the courage to stand up

    D
    I shall never forget the night, a few years ago, when Marion J. Douglas was a student in one of my adult-education classes. He told us how tragedy had struck at his home, not once, but twice. The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter. He and his wife thought they couldn’t bear that first loss; but, as he said, “Ten months later, God gave us another little girl and she died in five days.”
    This double bereavement was almost too much to bear. “I couldn’t take it,” this father told us. “I couldn’t sleep, eat, rest or relax. My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone.” At last he went to the doctors; one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip, but neither helped. He said, “My body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice(大钳子), and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter.” The tension of grief(悲伤) — if you have ever been paralyzed(使瘫痪) by sorrow, you know what the meant.
    “But thank God, I had one child left — a four-year-old son. He gave me the solution to the problem. One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself, he asked, ‘Daddy, will you build a boat for me?’ I was in no mood to build a boat; in fact, I was in no mood to do anything. But my son is a persistent fellow! I had to gave in. Building that toy boat took me about three hours. By the time it was finished, I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months! I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking. In my case, building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring. So I determined to keep busy.”
    “The following night, I made a list of jobs that ought to be done. Scores of items needed to be repaired. Amazingly, I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention. During the last two years I have completed most of them. I am busy now that I have no time for worry.”
    No time for worry! That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hours a day at the height of the war. When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities, he said, “I am too busy. I have no time for worry.”
    53. The underlined word “bereavement” in the second paragraph refers to _____.
    A. having lost a loved one
    		B. having lost a valuable article
    C. having lost a profit-making business
    		D. having lost a well-paid job
    54. Marion felt his body as if it was caught in a vice because _____.
    A. he couldn’t earn enough money to support his family
    B. he was suffering from sleeplessness disease
    C. he couldn’t get out of mental pressure
    D. he felt tired of adult-education classes
    55. Marion made a list of over 200 items that needed to be repaired because _____.
    A. he hadn’t been able to spare time to mend them
    B. he wanted to kill his free time by repairing them
    C. the items had actually been broken and needed attention
    D. repairing the items helped crowd worry out of his mind
    56. At the end of the passage, the author wrote about Winston Churchill in order to _____.
    A. prove that he followed Churchill’s example
    B. support his student’s solution to his problem
    C. show that he was successful in his career
    D. make it clear how his conclusion was reached

    D
    Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn’t do anything romantic: we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and future. This was pretty much what I had expected.
    　　Andy is unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. However, I am an outspoken girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words from their boyfriends.
    　　I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: “If someone does not love you in the way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you.” This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.
    　　One cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dorm and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. Upon arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities(手续). When I was put on a drip（输液）, he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender voice, I had never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I felt asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still whispering to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have waken up. At that moment, I found love in his sparkling eyes.
    　　Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.
    　　My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father, understand me like my mother and helps me like my elder brother.
    67. Why does the author envy other girls of her age?
    A. Their boyfriends look more handsome.        B. Their boyfriends express love directly.
    C. They win a lot of praise from colleagues.      D. They often receive roses.
    68. The word “sullen” in Paragraph 3 can be best replaced by “          ”.
    A. cheerful                      B. calm                     C. happy                  D. bad
    69. The author mentioned her experience in hospital to show Andy           .
    A. loves her greatly              B. is always careless      C. is sometimes shy       D. is good at telling stories
    70. The writer writes the passage to tell us that           .
    A. Andy is very outspoken                                B. Andy is a perfect husband
    C. Andy has his own way to express love         D. Andy cares more about others
