    The Museum of Childhood is spread over 4 floors, with the first floor acting like a balcony around the edge of the building, so you can look down over the ground floor central hall with the shop, Information Desk and Benugo Café.
    The museum of Childhood is housed in a large Victorian building in east London. It has been on this site since 1872. It has undergone refurbishment (翻新) and reopened in 2006 and an elevator now makes all floors accessible.
    This is not a quiet place and children are allowed to have fun here. Child safety is extremely important and a member of staff remains by the front door at all times. Also, note the “Code of Behavior” notice, which includes: children under 12 must be supervised by an adult; no eating in the galleries and no running.
    Toy exhibits are in glass cases and there are plenty of low-level exhibits for younger children to see. The glass cases have lots of thought-inspiring questions on them to encourage discussion between adults and children. When you or the children need some quiet time, there are sofas at either end of the second floor with reading books available.
    Pros: Many free activities for kids

    Without the atmosphere there would be no weather, no wind, rain, snow, or clouds. Air is all around us; we live at the bottom of a great ocean of air. It is invisible, but we can feel it when it moves. There are miles of air above us, pressing down with great weight on the earth and everything on it. Because air presses down on us from all directions at the same time, and because we are able to bear (忍受) this weight, we do not seem to feel it. But scientists have proved that air has this weight, and that anything that has weight creates(产生) a force called pressure. As changes in air pressure take place, they, make air move.
    Air is a gas that expands(膨胀) when heated, gets lighter, and moves upward. When air is cooled, it gets heavier, sinks close to the earth's surface, and flows like water in a great river. As warn air rises, cold air rushes in to take its place. 'Thus winds originate (起源). The winds that blow high above us are caused by the warmer air running away from colder air. The wind we feel near the earth's surface is the heavy colder air trying hard to catch the warmer air. Changes in temperature cause the air to move. And of course there are many changes, so air movements are taking place practically all the time.
    小题1:The first paragraph mainly tells us the causes of
    A．why we don't feel airB．why atmosphere is important to us
    C．why there is air surrounding usD．why there is air pressure
    小题2:Air moves under such conditions that
    A．there is air pressureB．the air is heavy
    C．air pressure doesn't remain the same all the timeD．air comes up and down
    小题3:Which of the following pictures best tells the movements of warm air and cold air?
    小题4:According to the passage, in same areas if farmers who grow grapes (葡萄) light fires in the early morning, that is because the farmers want to________________．
    A．drive away warm airB．prevent cold air from coming to harm their plants
    C．cause more windD．stop warm air running away

    第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    Sometimes you make a wish, but when it comes. you decide you don’t want it. That’s what happened with Micky’s “birthday wish”.
    Our family tradition is that you make a wish before you blow out the birthday candle.  After he blew out the candle. Micky told us that his wish was to win a prize in the Pine Ridge-match. We quickly told Micky, “If you tell people your wish. your wish won’t come true.” So we lit the candle again, and he made another wish.
    Micky and Paul were both supposed to start playing at 5:30.
    When Micky reported to the check-in table, the game organizers told him his opponent (对手) had phoned and said he was coming late. The officials told Micky he could choose not to play and be declared the victor of the first round of competition.
    But Micky said he didn’t want to win by not playing. He wanted the experience of playing a great player.
    Finally, the beast showed up. He was tall, smiling and relaxed. His serve (发球) was like lightning.
    Micky had some good returns, but he lost quickly, 6-1, 6-0.
    We congratulated Micky on having some good returns and a few great serves. And we noted that he had won the first game.
    “I didn’t win that game,” Micky said. “I think he just gave it to me at the beginning because he arrived late.”      
    “It was a birthday present.” I said, smiling.
    “No, I refused my birthday present,” Micky said. In his eyes, his “birthday present” had been the chance to win by his opponent’s being late.
    Micky ended up winning the “consolation prize(鼓励奖)” a small prize that we didn’t know existed until Micky earned it by being undefeated in the consolation bracket (档次).
    We’ll’ never know what Micky’s second wish was - the wish he didn’t share with us.
    It seems to me that no matter how many birthdays you celebrate, as long as you enjoy challenges, you will never be “old”.
    56. What kind of person is Micky?
    A. A person who always gives up.          B. A person who is afraid of challenges.
    C. One who enjoys challenges.               D. One who is selfish.
    57. Why did Micky lose the match?
    A. Because he gave up a good chance.           B. Because he let the others know his birthday wish.
    C. Because he was proud of himself.       D. Because his opponent played much better than him
    58. The prize Micky won was ______.
    A. one he had expected                                B. not a well-known one
    C. a famous one                                  D. one he thought meaningless
    59. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.
    A. enjoying challenges is helpful for one to keep “young”
    B. one will become old as he celebrates his birthdays
    C. one will stay young by continuously celebrating his birthdays
    D. challenges can make one never get old

     If you are in charge of a project, the key to success is getting everyone to want to help you. As a director, I point, I suggest. I gently push the actors in the direction I want them to go. In the 1986 movie, “Nothing in Common”, Jackie Gleason’s character, Max Basner, gets fired from his job as a clothing salesman. The scene, shot on a boat, shows Max’s despair about being out of work. I was looking for some gesture that would allow Max to show his feelings.
    Jackie had far more experience at everything than I did, and at first I was frightened. What could I possibly tell “The Great One” about acting? Finally I decided to direct by suggestion, and sat down with Gleason to talk about the scene. “So Max is sad, right?” I said.
    Gleason nodded.
    “And he’s probably still carrying his pens with name on them—the ones he used to hand out to his customers, right?”
    Gleason nodded.
    “So what would you want to do with the pens after you were fired?”
    He was silent for a moment. “Why don’t I throw them overboard?”
    I stood up and turned up and turned toward the crew. “Hey, everybody, Jackie has a wonderful idea. Let’s shoot it.”
    After filming the scene, Gleason called me over and said with a smile. “Garry, what kind of wonderful idea am I going to have tomorrow?”
    You and your team can discover the answers to problems together. When there are no prizes or gold stars for who gets the solution first, you’ll all benefit when everything turns out right.
    61.According to the writer, to succeed in a project you are in charge of , you should______.
    A. make everyone work for you          B. get everyone willing to help 
    C. let people know you have the idea     D. keep talking to them
    62. “The Great One” in Paragraph 2 refers to______.
    A. Gleason     B. the director himself    C. Max   D. Max’s boss
    63. After filming the scene, Gleason called the director over and smiled at him. That’s because Gleason________.
    A. thought the director gave him a good idea 
    B. formed the habit of thinking of ideas while talking
    C. was not confident about his acting
    D. appreciated the director’s directing skill
    64. The most suitable title for the passage is “_______”.
    A. Directing a Film              B. The Key to Success

    Beijing plans to build huge free or low-cost parking lots beyond the Fourth and Fifth Ring Roads to encourage more car owners to take buses or subways to the downtown area．
    The plan is just one of the many measures the city plans to take to reduce its traffic jams．Low or no parking fees would be used as economic leverage(杠杆作用) to reduce growing parking demands from urban areas．
    Car owners living in the suburbs will be encouraged to park their cars beyond the Fourth and Fifth Ring Roads and take buses or subways to the downtown area．Statistics show that nearly one quarter of the city’s traffic flow is concentrated in the 62-square-kilometer downtown area within the Second Ring Road, which makes up only 12 percent of the city’s total area．
    The Beijing Traffic Management Bureau receives between 400 and 500 calls reporting traffic jams every day and more than 90 percent of the roads are filled to capacity during rush hours every morning and evening．Part of the problem is the lack of easy links between bus routes, subways and cars．
    According to the communication commission, half of the city’s investment in transportation will go towards public transit（公共交通） construction in the next few years, making a jump from the current only 20 per cent．Moreover, Beijing plans to change its layout （布局） by building new city centers, such as at Yizhuang, Tongzhou, Shunyi and Changping, in a bid to reduce the traffic flow to the downtown．
    The current layout of Beijing-expanded ring roads around the same center of the Forbidden City, is seen as the root cause of the endless traffic jams．The downtown area is crowded with three business centers and one financial center, as well as nearly 400 government organs and institutions．
    Traffic experts say building more urban centers around Beijing may reduce the number of residents living in the suburbs and traveling long distances to work downtown every day, thus reducing traffic flow．
    40．In the coming years, if a man beyond the Fourth Ring Road goes to work in the downtown of Beijing, he is encouraged to _________．
    A．take buses or subways     B．take a taxi
    C．drive the car quickly           D．park his car in a place which asks for no fees
    41．According to this passage, when more and more people drive to work in rush hour in Beijing, it is likely to _______．
    A．save time                B．cause traffic jams
    C．cause traffic accidents     D．reduce air pollution
    42．The aim in building new city centers is to ________．
    A．make it convenient for people to go shopping
    B．develop its local resources
    C．reduce the traffic flow to the downtown
    D．solve the problem of more laid-off workers
    43．The passage suggests the author ______．
    A．is tired of driving to work
    B．finds it costs less to take subways than to drive
    C．is for the plan to reduce Beijing’s traffic congestion(拥挤)
    D．has benefited a lot by driving to the downtown every day

    If you’re planning on traveling, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.
    First of all, always check and double-check departure (行程) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.
    The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between. I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.
    “Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was very embarrassing (令人难堪的).
    The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.
    40. According to the passage, it’s obvious that ______.
    A. the author learns some rules of traveling from his own experience
    B. the author doesn’t plan his trips or journeys carefully
    C. Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travel
    D. the American taxi driver never travels to England
    41. What should you make sure first before setting off?
    A. When you will leave.      B. Where you will go.
    C. How you will travel.        D. Whom you will go with.
    42. What does the underlined word “there” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
    A. London.            B. Manchester.            C. Tulsa.        D. Dallas.
    43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A. The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations.
    B. You should remember to take credit cards when traveling.
    C. You should know more about the weather of the place you’ll visit.
    D. You should take enough change when you travel to another country.

    Communication technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth．The first study to compare honesty across a range of communications media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails．The fact that emails are automatically recorded—and can come back to haunt（困扰） you—appears to be the key to the finding．
    Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, asked 30 students to keep a communications diary for a week．In it they noted the number of conversations or email exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confessed to how many lies they told．Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium．He found that lies made up 14 percent of emails, 21 percent of instant messages, 27 percent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 percent of phone calls．
    His results, to be presented at the conference on human-computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April, have surprised psychologists．Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because deception makes people uncomfortable, the detachment（非直接接触） of emailing would make it easier to lie．Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practiced at that form of communication．
    But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time．People appear to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account, he says．This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone．
    People are also more likely to lie in real time—in an instant message or phone call, say—than if they have time to think of a response, says Hancock．He found many lies are spontaneous（脱口而出的） responses to an unexpected demand, such as: “Do you like my dress?”
    Hancock hopes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate．For instance, the phone might be the best medium for sales where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth．But given his result, work assessment, where honesty is a priority, might be best done using email．
    57．Hancock’s study focuses on ________．
    A．the consequences of lying in various communications media
    B．the success of communications technologies in conveying ideas
    C．people’s preference in selecting communications technologies
    D．people’s honesty levels across a range of communications media
    58．Hancock’s research finding surprised those who believed that ________．
    A．people are less likely to lie in instant messages
    B．people are unlikely to lie in face-to-face interactions
    C．people are most likely to lie in email communication
    D．people are twice as likely to lie in phone conversations
    59．According to the passage, why are people more likely to tell the truth through certain media of communication?
    A．They are afraid of leaving behind traces of their lies
    B．They believe that honesty is the best policy
    C．They tend to be relaxed when using those media
    D．They are most practiced at those forms of communication
    60．According to Hancock, the telephone is a preferable medium for promoting sales because ________．
    A．salesmen can talk directly to their customers
    B．salesmen may feel less restrained to exaggerate
    C．salesmen can impress customers as being trustworthy
    D．salesmen may pass on instant messages effectively

    B
    Whether rich or poor, we all have problems: that unfaithful mate, that annoying colleague, that persistent(持久的) disease, and the investment that is turning into a huge loss.
    How can we remain calm, positive and even elegant in the face of all these difficulties of
    life?
    The following suggestions may help.
    It comes with the pay. I have a friend who used to complain about her dead-end job and
    unreasonable boss. Sounds familiar? One day I told her, "Look at it this way. You are getting
    paid for the annoyance as well as the work. It comes with the pay. "
    This has become my favorite saying for work-related frustrations. "Take every day as a bo-
    nus. " When we learn to treasure every moment of what we have, we begin to see life in a whole
    new attitude.
    It's all in the mind. Sure, the psychologists tell us it is important that we work at resol-
    ving problems. But they also say if you try to resolve a problem that would not go away, it would
    only compound(使更复杂) the frustration.
    If you tell yourself there isn' t a problem, there won' t be one. It is all in the mind.
    Stop thinking about your own problem-help others instead. A lady who is struggling a
    life-threatening disease showed she coped with her illness by making herself useful, by offering
    help to others in a similar situation.
    She has spoken to at least five other women with breast cancer. She says that the sharing
    has helped her to find fresh meaning in her own life.
    Never give up on your dream. Why do we give in or give up when we meet difficulities?
    ls it because we have no confidenee in our cause and no commitment (承担义务)for what we
    pursue?
    One strong-hearted lady was the late head of the tragic Kennedy family, Rose Kennedy.
    She said this on nationwide television one week after losing yet another son to assassin's( 暗杀者) bullet--Boddy Kennedy:"And we go on our way with no regrets not looking backwards to
    the past, but we shall carry on with courage. "
    Not the end of the world. Do you know something else? I' ve learned that care as you
    might, love as,you might, some people don't care back.
    And it is not the end of the world. After all, it's not the event that makes a person, is it?
    It's what we do about what happens to us.
    It was said that Albert Einstein' s last request on his death bed was to be given his equa-
    tions(方程式) and his unfinished statement. Einstein first picked up his equations and lament-
    ed(悲叹) to his son, "if only I had more mathematics!" What a great persistent spirit!
    45. All of the followings are wrong EXCEPT_____.
    A. some people have many problems while some have none
    B. Albert Einstein pursued his dream till the last minute of his life
    C. Rose Kennedy must be a timid (缺乏自信的) woman
    D. we shouldn' t love those who don' t care about us
    46. The passage is intended to inform the readers_____ .
    A. how to face problems                       B. how to resolve problems
    C. how to hold on to your dreams              D. how to help others
    47. By saying "Take every day as a bonus", the author is trying to tell us __.
    A. we should get a bonus every day     B. we should treasure every day in our life
    C. we should make advances every day  D. we should enjoy ourselves every day
    48. The last paragraph of the passage is out of place; it should be put under the subtitle of_____.
    A. It comes with the pay                      B. It' s all in the mind
    C. Never give up on your dream               D. Not the end of the world
