         Azure Warrenfeltz, a 4-year-old girl, is fluent in Japanese and Spanish. She also can   1   bits of French,
    German, Arabic and Italian, and she soon hopes to learn some Mandarin Chinese.
         In today's globalized world, Azure is one of many young American children whose parents insist her   2  
     include foreign languages.
         "It's such a   3   environment now, you never know what you might need," says Azure's mother, Julie
    Warrenfeltz, who started schooling her daughter in foreign languages when she was 6 weeks old. "She
    couldn't   4   a violin, she couldn't stand upright, but I wanted her to do   5  ."
         Not only is learning a foreign language easier for children than it is for    6  , but children who are exposed
    to other languages also do better in school. They are more   7   to diversity, says Fran?ois Thibaut, who runs
    The Language Workshop for Children, which has nine schools around the East Coast.
         Language study for children is based on immersion (沉浸), he says. Kids sing songs and play games to
    help develop language comprehension skills. When children start learning languages at birth, they have the   8  
     to learn many languages at once without getting   9  -because, as the brain develops, so too does the ability to

    阅读下面短文，然后用英语简洁回答文后所给的问题（注意每题每小题要求的词数）。
         About 40 percent of the top students in college entrance examinations have chosen overseas universities
    for their postgraduate studies, according to a survey.
         Most of them have stayed overseas after finishing their intended courses, showed a survey that tracked
    130 top performers in college entrance exams from 1977 to 1998.
         The survey, released on the China Alumni Association website, found it worrying that many of the top
    students would not _____ despite the country's rapid development in the past few decades.
         The government should find better ways to hold back talented students, said Cai Yanhou, a professor
    with Central South University in Changsha, capital of Hunan Province.
         UNESCO figures show Chinese students consist of 14 percent of international students, the highest in
    the world. Their favorite destinations for higher studies are the US, Britain and Japan. Some experts said
    handsome scholarships, better job prospects and more opportunities to pursue further studies are the main
    attractions of foreign universities.
         But Cai, who also led the survey team, said "top in exams" does not necessarily mean "top in career"
    because the study found none of the top students at college entrance exams had become a top Chinese
    expert or academic. Some of them are just more adaptable to exam-oriented education (应试教育) than
    their peers, experts said.
         The media fill pages and time slots(逢) with their "success" stories to gain wider readership and
    viewership. High schools promote their former students proudly to attract new ones, and universities
    want to show their superior status by recruiting (吸收) them, they said.
         Wang hoped future reforms would do away with the score-oriented method so that students can be
    judged from all aspects.
    1. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)
         _____________________________________________________________________________________
    2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? The top students "success" stories
        are widely announced by the media to attract the readers' and the viewers' interest.
         _____________________________________________________________________________________
    3. Please fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.
        (Please answer within 10 words) 
         _____________________________________________________________________________________
    4. If you are one of the top students in college entrance examinations, will you choose to study abroad?
        Why or why not? (Please answer within 30 words)
         _____________________________________________________________________________________

         Speeding off in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch. But he is in for an unwelcome surprise.
    The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer (远程控制器) and a radio signal from a control center miles away
    will make sure that once the thief turns the engine off, he will not be able to start it again.
         The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car contains a mini-cell phone, a micro-processor and
    memory and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. If the car is stolen, a coded (编码的) cell phone signal will tell
    the control center to block the vehicle's engine management system and prevent the engine being restarted.
         In the UK, a set of technical fixes is already making life harder for car thieves. "The pattern of vehicle crime
    has changed    ," says Martyr Randall, a security expert. He says it would only take him a few minutes to teach a
    person how to steal a car, using a minimum of tools, but only if the car is more than 10 years old.
         Modern cars are far tougher to steal, as their engine management computer won't allow them to start unless
    they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition (点火) key. In the UK, technologies like this have
    helped to achieve a 31% drop in vehicle crime since 1997.
         But determined thieves are still managing to find other ways to steal cars, often by getting hold of the owner's
    keys. And key theft is responsible for 40% of the thefts of vehicles fitted with a tracking system.
         If the car travels 100 meters without the driver conforming (一致) the ID, the system will send a signal to
    an operation center that it has been stolen. The 100-meter minimum avoids false alarm be- cause of some
    possible errors of the GPS signal.
         Staff at the center will then contact the owner to confirm that the car really is missing and keep the police
    informed of the vehicle's movements via the car's GPS unit.
    1. What's the function of the remote immobilizer fitted to the car?
    [     ]
    A. To help the police make a surprise attack on the car thief.
    B. To order the car to lock automatically when stolen.
    C. To prevent the car thief from restarting it once it stops.
    D. To send a radio signal to inform the car owner of the theft.
    2. The underlined sentence "The pattern of vehicle crime has changed" suggests that ____.
    [     ]
    A. it takes less time for the car thief to do the stealing
    B. many self-prepared too]s can be used for car theft
    C. the theft becomes more difficult because of modern technology
    D. the thief has lost interest in stealing cars over 10 years old
    3. ____ is essential in making a modern car tougher to steal.
    [     ]
    A. A micro-processor
    B. A special ID code
    C. A special cell phone
    D. A GPS satellite positioning receiver
    4. Why does the tracking system set a 100-meter minimum before sending an alarm to the operation center?
    [     ]
    A. To leave time for the operation center to give an alarm.
    B. To keep the police informed of the car's movement.
    C. To give the driver time to contact the operation center.
    D. To allow for possible mistakes in the GPS system.
    5. What will the operation center do first after receiving an alarm?
    [     ]
    A. Start the tracking system.
    B. Stop the engine.
    C. Contact the owner.
    D. Locate the missing car.

         I am especially interested in eco-friendly cars. Would you please give me some help? 
                                                                                                                                             -John Lily
    John Lily,
         More and more automobile companies are taking measures to create cars that do less harm to the planet.
    Here are some of the top green cars this year.
    Tesla Roadster
         This is an electric sports car. You can travel 220 miles before recharging the battery. The only problem?
    It will cost you $ 100 000. So, until you win the lottery or happen to find a box of gold at the end of a
    rainbow, let's move on to the more reasonable choices.
    Aptera 2e
         This electric car is much more affordable than the Tesla Roadster, with a starting price of around $ 25000.
    Its electric motor runs 100 miles per charge. Unfortunately, it is currently only available in California through
    a complex booking process.
    Toyota Prius
         At 51 miles per gallon in the city and 48 0n the highway, the Toyota Prius is one of the most fuel-efficient
    cars in the world. With an annual CO2 rating of 1968 kilograms, this car holds the first place on MSN's list of
    the Least Polluting Vehicles of 2009. It also has other eco-friendly features like a solar-powered ventilation (通
    风) system. 
    Honda Civic Hybrid (混合动力车)
         The Honda Civic Hybrid is competitive with the Toyota Prius when it comes to fuel efficiency. It gets 40
    miles per gallon in the city and 45 on the highway. It also has the second- lowest annual CO2 figure, releasing
    2160 kilograms in a year.
    Honda Insight Hybrid
         With a base price of just $20 000, the Honda Insight Hybrid is the least expensive Hybrid on the market
    today. Coming just after the Honda Civic and Toyota Prius in terms of pollution, this fuel-efficient vehicle gets
    40 miles per gallon in the city and 43 on the highway.
         Besides all these, Toyota Camry Hybrid is also a good choice. 
                                                                                                                                                     William
    1. Compared with Aptera 2e, Tesla Roadster _____.
    [     ]
    A. costs less
    B. needs more time to be recharged
    C. is harder to book
    D. runs much further per charge
    2. Which of the following vehicles causes the least pollution to the environment?
    [     ]
    A. Honda Civic Hybrid.
    B. Toyota Prius.
    C. Honda Insight Hybrid.
    D. Toyota Camry Hybrid.
    3. We can infer from the passage that _____.
    [     ]
    A. as long as you have won the lottery, you can buy Tesla Roadster
    B. only people in California are allowed to buy Aptera 2e
    C. Honda Insight Hybrid may be the third least polluting hybrid of 2009
    D. the fuel efficiency of the Aptera 2e must be the highest of all the vehicles mentioned
    4. What might William be according to the passage?
    [     ]
    A. A future car buyer.
    B. A car expert giving advice to people online.
    C. An eco-friendly car repairer.
    D. An eco-friendly car designer.

    阅读理解。
         It is thought that crying is hardly an activity encouraged by society. Tears, whether they are of sorrow,
    anger, or joy, typically make Americans feel uncomfortable and embarrassed. The shedder of tears (落泪者)
    is likely to apologize, even when a great tragedy was the cause. The observer of tears is likely to do everything
    possible to put an end to the emotional tears. But judging from recent studies of crying behavior, both those
    responses     to tears are often inappropriate and may even be counterproductive (适得其反).
         Humans are the only animals clearly known to shed emotional tears. Since evolution has given rise to few
    purposeless physiological responses, it is logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that enhance
    (increase) survival.
         Although some observers have suggested that crying is a way to ask for assistance from others (as a crying
    baby might from its mother), the shedding of tears is hardly necessary to get help. Loud cries would have been
    quite enough, more likely than tears to gain attention. So, it appears, there must be something special about tears
    themselves.
         Indeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a direct role in reducing stress. University of
    Minnesota researchers who are studying the chemical composition of tears have recently separated two
    important chemicals from emotional tears. Both chemicals are found only in tears that are shed in response to
    emotion. Tears shed because of exposure to cut onion would contain no such substance. 
         Other researchers are mvestigating the usefulness of tears as a means of making a careful examination of
    human ills and monitoring drugs. At Tulane University's Tear Analysis Laboratory, Dr. Peter Kastl and his
    colleagues report that they can use tears to detect drug abuse, to study the causes of "dry eye" syndrome (综合
    症) and the effects of eye surgery, and perhaps even to measure exposure to environmental pollutants.
    1. What does the phrase "both those responses" in Paragraph l refer to?
    [     ]
    A. Crying out of sorrow and shedding tears for happiness.
    B. The embarrassment and unpleasant feeling of the observers.
    C. The tear shedder's apology and the observer's effort to stop the crying.
    D. Linking illness with crying and finding the chemical composition of tears.
    2. From the passage we can infer that _____.
    [     ]
    A. it is natural for people to shed tears
    B. we can reduce our stress by shedding tears
    C. shedders of tears can't get help by crying loudly
    D. unlike animals, humans can shed tears for survival
    3. What does the passage mainly talk about?
    [     ]
    A. Roles of emotional tears.
    B. Functions of shedding tears.
    C. Unwelcome shedders of tears.
    D. Research on the effects of tears.

         An independent college claimed to have become the first school in England to make Chinese a compulsory
    (强制的) subject for its pupils.
         Richard Cairns, the headmaster of Brighton College, said the move aims to recognize the importance of
    China as the world's fastest growing economy.
         Chinese will become one of the core subjects at the 1,200-pupil college from September. At present the
    school has only a "handful" of native Chinese students, but it hopes to attract more in the future.
         Mr. Cairns, who made the announcement in his first week as head of the high-achieving college, said,
    "One of my key tasks is to make sure that the pupils at Brighton College are equipped for the realities of the
    21st century, and one of those realities is that China has the fastest growing economy in the world."
         "China has replaced Britain as the world's fourth-largest economy. We in Britain need to face up to this
    challenge, see it for the trading opportunity that it is, and ensure that our nation's children are well-placed to
    thrive (茁壮成长) in this new global reality.
         "A better understanding of the language and culture of China will be hugely important to the advantage of
    the children of Brighton College."
         Mr. Cairns said he hoped the Chinese children already at the college would help and encourage their fellow
    pupils to learn their language.
         In order to lead the way, Mr. Cairns, a historian from Oxford, plans to take part in the first Chinese class
    as a pupil."I have agreed to join the first Chinese class as a pupil. I think it is the best way for me to show
    the pupils here how important I regard this new addition to our core subjects."
    1. The passage mainly tells us _____.

    B. it realizes the importance of China as the world's fastest growing economy
    C. Chinese is the easiest language for the students
    D. there are many native Chinese students at the college
    3. What is Mr. Cairns' attitude towards the development of China?
    [     ]
    A. He sees it to be a threat.
    B. He thinks of it as a danger.
    C. He considers it to be an opportunity.
    D. He regards it as an encouragement.
    4. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
    [     ]
    A. The Chinese students at the college have already helped their fellow students to learn Chinese.
    B. The school is the first in England to make Chinese a compulsory subject.
    C. Mr. Cairns has just been made head of this high-achieving college.

         In order to know a foreign language thoroughly (完全地), four things are necessary. First, we must
    understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, with
    confidence (自信) and without hesitation (犹豫). Thirdly, we must do much reading. Finally, we must be
    able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.
         There are no shortcuts to success in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough
    only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is not much learning by heart long lists of words and
    their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language.
         If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must
    "learn through use." Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we
    can.
    1. The most important things to learn a foreign language are _____.
    [     ]
    A. understanding and speaking
    B. listening, speaking, reading and writing
    C. writing and understanding
    D. memorizing and listening
    2. Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it very badly. This is because _____.
    [     ]
    A. he doesn't understand the language when he hears it spoken
    B. he doesn't have a good memory
    C. he always remembers lists of words and their meanings
    D. he often hesitates (犹豫) to practise speaking it
    3. One can never learn a foreign language well by _____.
    [     ]
    A. doing much practice
    B. studying the dictionary
    C. learning through use
    D. using the language
    4. Which is the most important in learning a foreign language?
    [     ]
    A. A good memory.
    B. Speaking.
    C. Practice.
    D. Writing.
    5. "Learn through use" means _____.
    [     ]
    A. we use a language in order to learn it
    B. we learn a foreign language in order to use it
    C. we can learn a language well while we are keeping using it

         Everyone has got two personalities-one is shown to the world and the other is secret and real. You don't
    show your secret personality when you are awake because you can control your behavior, but when you are
    asleep, sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their
    position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.
         If you go to sleep on your back, your are a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily
    influenced by fashion or your new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings.
    You are quite shy and you aren't very confident.
         If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and always easily get upset,
    you are very stubborn, but you aren't very ambitious (有野心的). You usually live for today not tomorrow. This
    means you enjoy having a good time.
         If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so
    you are often very defensive. You are shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your
    own. You are easily hurt.
         If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and
