A
Maker
of Great Violins
Hundreds of violins
are made every day. However, the finest and most sought-after violins
were handcrafted by an Italian violin maker over 300 years ago. The craftsman’s
name was Antonius Stradivarius, and any one of his violins is worth over $
100,000 today.
Stradivarius, who was born in 1644,began his career as a violin maker’s
apprentice(徒弟).Working on his own by
1680,he became determined to make instruments that could reproduce tones(音调)as rich as those produced by the human voice. He tested several
shapes and styles for his violins until he arrived at a design that pleased
him. During his career he crafted over 1,100 violins. Those still in existence
have become treasured possessions.
Unfortunately, the secret of Stradivarius’ violin died with
its maker. During his lifetime Stradivarius kept his notes safely hidden; even
his two sons, who helped him in his workshop, did not know all the steps in
each violin’s construction.
Through the years, many experts have offered possible
explanations for the unique tone of a “Strad”. Some say it is the instrument’s
shape and the combination of its parts. Others suggest that the secret lies in
the special wood, which Stradivarius obtained from native Italian trees. The
most widely accepted supposition is that the beautiful tone of the violins is
created by the liquid that the old master used to coat his instruments.
Chemists have studied and reproduced the liquid as closely as possible, and it
has improved the sound of many violins. Still, no violin maker has been able to
fully reproduce the tone of Stradivarius’ violins.
56.According to the passage, Stradivarius made _________.
A. hundreds of violins every day
B. over 100,000 violins during career
C. only one violin
D. more than a thousand violins during his career
57.We can conclude from the passage that Stradivarius’________.
A. notes were found by chemists
B. notes were never found
C. secrets were learned when he was an apprentice
D. notes were left to his sons
58.In this passage the word rich means ________.
A. wealthy B. highly
amusing C. full and
pleasant D. high and sharp
59.Another food title for the passage would be _________.
A. how to Make Violins
B. Expensive Violins
C. What Was Stradivarius’
Secret D. Italian Violin

The family is larger and
more varied than most people realize. It includes some animals that we normally
think of as camels and some that we don’t usually recognize as camels.
Everybody knows about the one-humped camel, or dromedary. And many people have
heard of the Bactrian camel, which has two humps. But did you know that llamas
and some other animals without humps are also camels?
Camels have played an important role in the lives of many
people for at least four thousand years. And this is mainly because camels have
the ability to live in places where other large animals could never survive. In
huge deserts like the Sahara, the climate can be too hot and dry for most
animals. There are places where rain doesn’t fall for months, or even years.
The sand may stretch for hundreds of miles, and animals may have to walk for
days to reach water. The deserts of Africa and Arabia are not the only places
where camels live.
Desert winds often blow sand into the air. To protect their
eyes, camels have long eyelashes that catch most of the sand. If sand gets onto
an eye, a camel has a third eyelid to get it out. Like a windshield wiper on a
car, this extra eyelid moves from side to side and wipes the sand away. The
eyelid is very thin, so a camel can see through it. In sandstorms camels often
close their third eyelid and keep walking. You might say that a camel can find
its way through a sandstorm with its eyes closed.
64.We understand from the passage that_________.
A. the variety of camels is limited
B. camels refer to those animals with one or two humps
C. the camel family includes a large variety of species without humps
D. some animals without humps are also included in the camel family
65.Camels have been important to human beings for long in history mainly
because__________.
A. they can go without water for a long time
B. they have special structure in their eyes
C. they can stand the heat and dryness of the desert
D. they can carry heavy loads
66.Camels can protect their eyes from the desert wind because________.
A. their eyes are specially structured
B. they have two eyelids
C. their eyelids are specially long
D. their third eyelid functions as a windshield wiper
D
There is a range of
activities which require movements of about one to four or five miles. These
might be leisure activities, such as moving from home to swimming pool, tennis
club, the theater or other cultural centers, or to a secondary or more advanced
school; or they might be movements related with work and shopping in the central
areas of cities. The use of cars which are able to carry five people at 80 mph
for satisfying these needs is wasteful of space and most productive of
disturbance to other road users.
The use of the bicycle, or some more modern derivative of
it, is probably worth more consideration than has recently been given to it.
The bicycle itself is a remarkably efficient and simple device for using human
muscular energy for transportation. In pure energy terms, it is four to five
times as efficient as walking, even though human walking itself is twice as
efficient as the movement of effective animals such as dogs. It is still widely
used, no only in some developing countries where bicycles are major means of
people and goods, but in a few richer towns such as Amsterdam in Holland and
Cambridge in England.
The bicycle neither gives enough protection from the weather
nor is very suitable for carrying goods, and demands considerable muscular work
to make progress against wind or uphill. It also offers its rider no protection
against collisions(碰撞)with
other vehicles. All these difficulties could, however, be greatly got rid of
with relatively small changes in design. The whole machine could be enclosed in
a plastic bubble(气泡)which would provide some protection
in case of accidents.
It would be easy to add a small petrol or electric motor. A
wide variety of designs would be possible. As in rowing, we might employ the
power of the arms or the general body musculature, as well as those of the
legs; more muscular exercise would be good for the health of many people in
cities, and a wide use of bicycle like muscle-powered vehicles would be a
useful way to ensure this. It could also provide opportunities for showing-off
by the young and vigorous.
67.The main idea of the first paragraph is that the car________.
A. can satisfy the demand for speed
B. causes waste of space
C. produces disturbance to other road users
D. is far from prefect for short range movements
68.More attention should be given to the bicycle as a means of transport
because it is______________.
A. a very efficient and simple device
B. much cheaper than a car
C. widely used in Amsterdam and Cambridge
D. still used by rich people
69.Enclosing the bicycle in a plastic bubble would______.
A. make it easier to use
B. save muscular energy
C. provide protection from the weather
D. prevent it from colliding with other vehicles
70.Which of these is UNTRUE for the present bicycle?
A. It is far more efficient than the movement of animals.
B. It offers its rider no protection.
C. It is not very suitable for carrying goods.
D. It can hardly be improved on.

The girls in this sixth grade class in East
Pato Alto, California, all have the same access to computers as boys. But
researchers say, by the time they get to high school ,they are victims of what
the researchers call a major new gender(性别)gap in technology. Janice Weinman of the American Association of
University Women says,“Girls tend to be less
comfortable than boys with the computer. They use it more for word processing
rather than for problem solving, rather than to discover new way in which to
understand information.
After
re-examining a thousand studies, the American Association of University Women
researchers found that girls make up only a small percentage of students in
computer science classes. Girls consistently rate themselves significantly
lower than boys in their ability and confidence in using computers. And they
used computers less often than boys outside the classroom.
An instructor of a computer lab says he’s
already noticed some difference. Charles Cheadle of Cesar Chavez School says,
“Boys are not so afraid they might do something that will harm the computer,
whereas girls are afraid they might break it somehow.”
Six years ago, the software company Purple Moon noticed that girl’s
computer usage was falling behind boys. Karen Gould says, “The number one
reason girls told us they don’t like computer games is not that they’re too
violent, or too competitive, Girls just said they’re incredibly boring.”
Purple Moon says it found what girls
want—characters they can relate to and story lines relative to what’s going on
in their own lives. Karen Gould of Purple Moon Software says, “What we
definitely found from girls is that there is no intrinsic(固有的)reason why they wouldn’t want to
play on a computer; it was just a content thing.”
The sponsor of the study says it all boils down to
this: the technology gender gap that separates the girls from the boys must be
closed if women are to compete effectively with men in the 21st century.
71.According to the passage, girls are victims of the gender gap in technology
because______.
A. they can not discover new ways to use computers
B. they have the same access to computers as boys
C. they are likely to be less comfortable with computers
D. they can only use computers for word processing
72.Girls often feel ____________.
A. bored with computer games
B. comfortable using computers
C. it hard to use computers in word processing
D. worried about using computers
73.The research on girls and computers is________.
A. based on a few recent articles
B. based on thousands of studies
C. presented by one person
D. not considered well grounded
74.The software company seems to think__________.
A. if girls had an equal chance of playing games, they would like
computers
B. if the software content was changed, girls would be more interested
C. if the software was more violent, girls would like it better
D. if the characters were funny, girls would like them better
75.The gender gap needs to be closed because__________.
A. it isn’t fair that boys are allowed to use computers all the time
B. there isn’t enough money for upgrading computers
C. most of the causes may boil down to a question of money
D. the ability to use computers is important in today’s world

One Possible Version:
I think the Five Friendlies, which will serve as the
Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, are all very lovely, but I
really like Yingying, the Tibetan Antelope best because it is strong and runs
fast. That’s what the Olympics represent and encourage. Also, Yingying comes
from Tibet and it reminds us of the beauty of nature with wild animals and
plants. Finally, it’s a symbol of Tibetan culture. Through this mascot we can
let foreign friends know more about this part of Chinese culture.

about the year 1400.
W: That sounds very interesting, and it looks like you’ve got a good start.
M: Yes, I think I’m OK so far.
W: Good, if you need any help, come in and let’s talk about it.

W: Why weren’t you at the German class last night, Tom? Have you given up?
M: Well, no…I came back late yesterday and found John sleeping in the chair.
He’d been writing report all day long and he was too tired to go out again, so
we gave the lesson a miss.
W: You’ve missed quite a lot of the lessons lately, haven’t you? Are you losing
interest?
M: Yes, I’m afraid so. Neither John nor I have a gift for language. People just
laugh at us when we try to speak German. How did you and Jane pick it up so
quickly and easily? You’ve hardly been in Germany a month.
W: It was neither quick nor easy. We’d both studied the language before we
came, and we only needed to revise it.
M: Anyway, all our friends here speak English very well, so we don’t really
need to learn German.

Villages in developing countries often lack many things. Books. Clean water.
Electricity. These shortages are easy to see. But a different kind of shortage
is not easy to see. That is the shortage of experts. Many villages have no
doctors, engineers or scientists. They have no one who knows how to treat
unusual medical problems or design a new energy system. There is a way to ease
this problem. You can do it with computers. In the past few years, computer
scientists around the world have developed what they call “expert systems”. An
expert system is a special kind of commuter program. In some situations, it can
take the place of a human expert.
For example, an expert medical system can help to take care of a sick person.
After asking a few questions of the patient, it can tell what medicine or other
treatment is needed
