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。
A
History is a society's memory and forms part of people's identity (身份). But Taiwan's government has proposed a change to their history. In the move their textbooks will separate the island's history from the rest of China.
By disconnecting the island's history from the mainland, the government hopes to create a stronger Taiwan identity.
Under new guidelines (方针) to be carried out in 2006, Taiwan has ordered high schools to change textbooks to create one book of Taiwan's history. At the moment their books cover the complete Chinese history. But following the new move Chinese history will be taught as part of international history. No longer to be included as part of Taiwan's history is the founding of the Republic of China (ROC) in 1911 by Sun Yat-sen. This event will be in the new international history book.
"It is a political attempt by Taiwan's leader Chen Shui-bian to make their education support Taiwan's independence", said Li Weiyi, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council.
This move has also received great opposition in Taiwan's schools. "The new outline (大纲) is too political and facts have been changed," said Yu Lin, the headmaster of Taipei Middle School. "It will confuse students' understanding of history."
"Who on earth should I think is the founding father of the ROC?" asked a student in Taipei. "Many famous people in history like Confucius(孔子) or Sun Yat-sen, who was considered 'father of the ROC' for more than half a century, should now be thought of as foreigners based upon this ridiculous logic,'' he said.
Many people have shown opposition to the move. "History cannot be changed. Mixing politics with our history means forgetting our ancestors," said Lien Chan, chairman of Kuomintang Party. "It will not do any good for the Taiwanese and only worsen cross-Straits relations."
56. What is mainly described in the passage?
A. Taiwan’s government has proposed a change to their history textbooks in 2006.
B. Taiwan authorities want to separate the island from the mainland.
C. Taiwan leaders want to make their education support Taiwan's independence.
D. Taiwan leaders try to confuse students' understanding of history.
57. What’s the excuse for the move according to Taiwan’s government?
A. To cut off all connections with the mainland.
B. To disconnect the island's history from the mainland.
C. Most of the Taiwanese do not welcome the textbook.
D. To create a stronger Taiwanese identity.
58. Which of the following is not included in the move?
A. Chinese history will be taught as part of international history.
B. The founding of the Republic of China (ROC) in 1911 by Sun Yat-sen will be in the new international history book.
C. Sun Yat-sen will be considered 'father of the ROC'.
D. Many famous people in history like Confucius or Sun Yat-sen will be thought of as foreigners.
59. Which of the following doesn’t show the correct relation between the man and the opinion?
A. China’s spokesman: It is an attempt to make their education support Taiwan’s independence.
B. Headmaster in Taipei: The new outline will throw light on students’ understanding of history.
C. A student in Taipei: It’s ridiculous.
D. Chairman of Kuomintang Party: The relation between the island and the mainland will become tense.

You’re out to dinner. The food is delicious and the service is fine. You decide to leave a big fat tip. Why? The answer may not be as simple as you think.
Tipping, psychologists (心理学家) have found, is not just about service. Instead, studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors (因素) from the waiter’s choice of words to how they carry themselves while taking orders to the bill’s total. Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pocket by the end of the night.
“Studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker,” wrote Rick van Baaren, a social psychology professor. “These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous (大方的) toward the person who mimics them.”
So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups. He requested that half serve with a phrase such as, “Coming up!” Those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers. Rick van Baaren then compared their take-home. The results were clear-it pays to mimic your customer. The copycat waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.
Leonard Green and Joel Myerson, psychologists at Washington University in St. Louis, found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill. After research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters, cab drivers, hair stylists, they found tip percentages in three areas dropped as customers’ bills went up. In fact, tip percentages appear to plateau (达到稳定水平) when bills topped $ 100 and a bill for $200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $ 100.
“That’s also a point of tipping,” Green says. “You have to give a little extra to the cab driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you. If they weren’t there you’d never get any service. So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.”
60. How many factors affecting the customers’ tipping are mentioned in the passage?
A. 2. B. 1. C. 3. D. 4.
61. According to the passage, a customer gives the cab driver a tip for ____.
A. driver’s politeness B. driver’s mimicry C. driver’s attitudes D. being there
62. According to the passage, which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip percentages?
63. According to the passage, we know the writer seems to _________.
A. oppose Mr. Green’s idea about tipping
B. think part of Mr. Green’s explanation is reasonable
C. give his generous tip to the waiters very often
D. support the opinions of Mr. Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping

Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive (重新体验) these experiences in nightmares.
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase (抹去), the effect of painful memories.
In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war.
They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. "Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry (精神病学) at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."
But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we'd want to wipe those memories out," said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist (伦理学家).
Some people fear that although the drug would first be used in only very serious cases, it would become more and more common. "People always have the ability to misuse science," said Joseph LeDoux, a New York University memory researcher. "All we want to do is help people have better control of memories."
67. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. People often suffer from bad memories.
B. American researchers are trying to develop a pill.
C. Forget bad memories, and be happy.
D. The research has caused a heated argument.
68. The underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refers to “_____”.
A. the new drug B. the research into the drug
C. the memory D. the chemical in the drug
69. Which of the following is not the opinion of the supporters?
A. The pill can erase all the memories in the past.
B. Some memories can ruin people’s life. The pill can relieve emotional suffering.
C. The pill can also help many other types of people who suffer from terrible memories.
D. The pill can prevent or treat troubling memories in soldiers after war.
70. Which of the following is not the opinion of the opponents (反对者)?
A. Our memories give us our identity.
B. The memories help humanity avoid mistakes of the past.
C. The drug should be used in only very serious cases.
D. People may not be sure whether they want to wipe the memories out.

How would you like an easy way to earn $ 2,500? All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals. There’s a catch however. You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week. There are no books or television or radio for amusement. You can’t leave until the week is up. And a camera will be recording your every move.
Two people actually took the job. The idea came from Rob Thompson, a video artist. He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated. His goal was to raise people’s awareness(意识) of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food. He decided to pay $ 5,000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week.
To Rob’s surprise, quite a few people answered his advertisement. He had interviewed and selected Eric, a 24-year-old restaurant worker, and Para, a 24-year-old chemist. The plan was for them to spend seven days together in a chicken cage that was six feet long and three feet wide. A camera would record their experiences, which would take place in an art museum.
The week was long and difficult. They slept on a hard wooden floor. They couldn’t stand up without hanging their heads. They ate vegetables and drank water from a garden hosepipe. Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain. There were no sinks, mirrors, or toothbrushes in the cage. Their only inspiration was the two framed checks that hung on the wall outside the cage. Visitors who came here were warned, “Do not feed the humans.”
Finally it was over, and Para and Eric appeared from their cage. They had survived the week, and they each had a $2,500 check in their hands. When Rob Thompson opened the cage, Eric came out, changed into clean clothes, and ate a chocolate bar right away. “It’s great to be able to stand up,” he said. Para just changed her clothes and left. After a week of visitors and reporters watching her, she didn’t want to talk to anyone.
71. What kind of person is Rob Thompson?
A. He is curious about people’s personal life.
B. He is kind-hearted to animals.
C. He hates people around.
D. He likes to help poor people.
72. The underlined word “catch” probably means ________.
A. unsolved problem B. surprising wonder C. unbelievable fact D. hidden difficulty
73. What made it most difficult for the two to stay in the cage?
A. They didn’t know each other.
B. They couldn’t lie down to sleep in the cage.
C. They didn’t have meat to eat.
D. They had to do almost everything under others’ eyes.
74. Rob offered the money because he wanted ______.
A. to see if there were any people who would like to live in a cage
B. to show the public how terrible animals’ life could be
C. to make more money by publishing the recorded videotapes
D. to improve housing conditions of working people like Eric
75. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. Easy Way to Earn $ 2,500
B. Do Not Feed the Humans
C. Living Like a Chicken
D. Getting Along Well Anyway

34. B 动词celebrate意为“庆祝”,常用来“庆祝”具体节日、胜利、生日、结婚纪念等活动; congratulate指对某人表示祝贺,介词on后面接名词或-ing,表达要祝贺的事。根据句子结构,应选动词-ing作伴随状语。

阅读理解
56. A 主旨题。短文第一段表述了“台湾当局已经提出篡改历史教科书”,全文围绕这一中心分析其目的以及各界的反映。B、C、D三项是台湾当局篡改历史教科书的目的,并不是全文的中心。
57. D 细节题。根据短文第二段“the government hopes to create a stronger Taiwan identity”一句可知台湾当局篡改历史教科书的借口是:更为突出台湾人的身份。
58. C 细节题。短文第三段讲述了这次篡改历史教科书的具体内容,C项“孙中山将被看成中华民国的国父”这一史实不在修改之列。
59. B 归纳题。根据短文第五段“It will confuse students' understanding of history and cause difficulties for teachers”一句可知:新大纲将会混淆学生对历史的理解。而B项中的throw light on表示“弄清;有助于说明某事物”之意,与原文不符。
60.A 细节判断题,可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第三节和第五节体现答案。
61.D 细节判断题,可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第六节You have to give a little extra to the cab driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you.体现答案。
62.D 细节判断题,可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第五节体现答案。
63.D 推理判断题,可用逻辑推断法来解。由原文可知,作者举出Mr. Green和Rick van Baaren的例子是为了支持自己的观点,可见他自己是赞成这两人的观点的。
64. D 65. C 66. C
67. D 主旨题。A项表示的是短文第一段的中心;B项表示的二、三段的中心。整篇文章的中心是:“忘忧药”的研制引起了各方人士的争鸣。
68. B 词义题。根据第四段所表述的内容:这项研究已经引起了激烈的争论,有人说“这”不是个好主意。由此可判断“it”指的是“the research into the drug”。
69. A 归纳题。归纳第四、第五段的意义,可知支持者的观点可概括为B、C、D三项。A项“这种药能抹去过去所有的记忆”这与短文的意义不符,更不用说是支持者的观点了。
70. C 归纳题。根据倒数第二段所表述的意义,A、B、D三项是反对者的观点。C项只是文章中所表述的一个现象,并不是他们的观点。
71.B 推理判断题,可用逻辑推断法来解。由原文第二节He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated. His goal was to raise people’s awareness(意识) of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food.可以推出Rob Thompson善待动物。
72.D 语境词义推断题,可用语境词义推断法来解。由句中however的语境逻辑可知,该词含义与All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals.含义相反,因此该词表潜在的困难。
73.D 推理判断题,可用逻辑推断法来解。由原文第三节末句A camera would record their experiences, which would take place in an art museum. 和第四节Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain.可以推出他们的一切行动都是在别人的眼皮之下进行的,而由常识可知,这是一件令人最难以忍受的事情。
74.B 推理判断题,可用逻辑推断法来解来解。由原文第二节His goal was to raise people’s awareness(意识) of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food.可以推断他花钱请人蹲鸡笼的目的是向公众表明动物的生存条件多么糟糕。
75.C 认真阅读分析原文可知,本文自始至终介绍Rob Thompson请人蹲鸡笼来揭示动物恶劣的生存环境一事,因此以Living Like a Chicken为题既具有高度的概括性、强烈的针对性,又因句式新颖、句意独特而具有一定的醒目性。
短文改错
76.as应改为when。此处表正在这时、突然,应用when引导并列句,表后句动作紧接在前句动作之后发生。
77.answer后面应加it。answer为及物动词,后面应接宾语。
78.She应改为It。替代上文所指的人应用It。
79.a应改为the。此处的电话应为谈话双方都知道的事物,表特指。
80.room后面应加was。and前面的分句缺少谓语动词。
81.opening应改为opened。and具有对称性,要求前后采用相同的动词形式。
82.With应改为To。此处表致使,应由To来表示,构成短语To one’s surprise,表令某人惊讶的是。
83.正确。
84.去掉about。此处应用tell sb. sth.句子结构。
85.which应改为that。该句为强调句型,强调词可用that但不可用which。
书面表达
One possible version:
Report on the Survey About Our School Uniform
I did a survey about our school uniform. I asked groups of my classmates what they think about our uniform.
The majority likes it. 60% of them say it is very fashionable and the color is nice. They think it is neat and tidy and also a symbol for students. In their opinion, when they wear the school uniforms, they feel equal and no need to follow the fashion.
On the other hand, 30% of the students don’t like the school uniform. Some of them feel it is uncomfortable and the color is too dull. Still some consider it is old-fashioned. In their eyes, its style is very simple. The rest have no idea about it.
So much is my report.

M: Hey, Mary! You have really been gone a long time. How did you do there?
W: Hi! Well, I talked with my teachers before I felt about the work I would miss. Besides, my aunt in
Denver made me study a lot there.

was a teacher.
M: How was the holiday?
W: Cold, at least three of the days I went. And I saw so many people on the mountain on
Washington’s Birthday.
M: The beaches here were full on Washington’s Birthday, too. It really was warm here, so lots of
people went swimming.
W: Well, we should have stayed home that day. There were so many. We took the train over to the
mountain, so at least we didn’t have to drive. It is a good thing we did---there were so many cars and
buses, and no place to park anywhere .
M: Just like the beaches here.

How much sleep do we need? We are all different. Some people need only three or four hours of sleep a night. Others need ten hours of sleep a night. Most Americans sleep an average of seven to eight hours a night. After age fifty, the average sleep time goes down to 6.5 hours a night.
Many people cannot fall asleep at night. Above one in three Americans has a problem with sleep. The name of this problem is insomnia.
This is not a new problem. Many famous people in history had insomnia. Some of these people had special ideas to make them sleep. Benjamin Franklin, the famous statesman and inventor, had four beds. He moved from bed to bed to fall asleep. King Louis XIV of France had 413 beds and hoped to fall asleep in one of them. Mark Twain, the famous American writer, had a different way. He lay on his side across the end of his bed!
