         Computers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future computers will be
    used in lots of everyday life. It is thought that we won't have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able
    to get all texts from computers. The Internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food. Most
    telephone calls will be made by computers, too.
         Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
         Let's look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of
    paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket
    computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won't need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized(计算机化) books will be used more and more.
         Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read
    large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers
    won't change these two habits.
    1. In paragraph1 it is thought people will use computers for _______.
    A. playing games, shopping and making telephone calls
    B. making telephone calls, having meals and seeing films
    C. seeing films, buying food, and going for holidays
    D. playing games, making telephone calls and seeing the doctor
    2. Which reason for using computerized books is NOT said in the passage?
    A. Computerized books won't be very expensive.
    B. Computers can keep many different books in them.
    C. We won't have lots of pages.
    D. We won't need any paper.
    3. The title for this passage is _______.
    A. Computers will Replace Shops and Books  
    B. Computers will be Used in the Future
    C. Computers will Do Everything for Man
    D. How Computers Change Our Habits

    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。

    Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.

    After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar , and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.

        Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. "Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. "They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone."

    Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.

        These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.

        Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar,  one of Rockstar's original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now."

    1. Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas?

    He needs to go to the doctor every day.

    He studies the leading cause of diabetes

    He has a positive attitude to this disease.

    He encourages diabetics by writing articles.

    2. Diabeitcrockstar.com was created for _________.

       A. diabetics to communicate          B. volunteers to find jobs

       C. children to amuse themselves       D. rock stars to share resources.

    3. According to the text, Kody ______.

    A. feel lonely because of his illness

    B. benefits from diabeticrockstar.com

    C. helps create the online kid’s forums

    D. writes children’s stories online

    4. What can we learn about Fight It?

    A. It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.

    B. It organizes parties for volunteer once a year.

    C. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.

    D. It owns a well-known medical website.

    5. The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ______.

    A. works full-time in a diabetes charity      B. employs 22 people for his website

    C. helps diabetics in his own way           D. ties to find a cure for diabetes

    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
    Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, you are communicating quite fluently, but: Listening is STILL a problem! First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening comprehension is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. The first step is to find listening resources. The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealMedia.com. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.
    Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated (懊恼) by limited understanding. What should you do?
    Here is some of the advice I give my students:
    ●Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.
    ●Stay relaxed when you do not understand — even if you continue not to understand for a long time.
    ●Do not translate what you hear into your native language.
    ●Listen for the general idea of the conversation. Don’t concentrate on detail until you have understood the main ideas.
    I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn’t understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts. Firstly, translating creates a wall between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that — even if I didn’t pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.
    56. The best way to improve our listening is to _____.
    A. practice as much as possible
    B. find as many listening resources as possible
    C. use the Internet like a radio station
    D. speak naturally and read as much as possible
    57. Which of the following is a good habit when listening?
    A. Try to understand everything.                B. Try to get the main ideas.
    C. Pay much attention to details.                D. Translate each word in your mind.
    58. Why did the writer mention his / her experience in Germany?
    A. To prove the importance of translating.
    B. To show the problems of speaking a foreign language.
    C. To tell us the importance of staying calm.
    D. To point out an ineffective method of listening.
    59. The underlined part “a wall” in the last paragraph refers to “_____”.
    A. a communication barrier             B. culture shock
    C. language conflict                     D. a little misunderstanding

    A
    It u won $ 50,000,000 would u still go to college?
    Lots of people go to college so they have a chance to get a better job, but if you won $ 50 million, would you still pursue（追求）a higher education?
    Re: If u won $ 50,000,000 would u still go to college?
    I would surely still go to college if I had that much money, but I would not be competing for a scholarship on collegenet. com. I would probably still discuss things here and I would create other scholarships to help other people to go to college as well.
    With $ 50 million, I would not have to worry about getting a loan（贷款）from Chase Bank or finding scholarships to study abroad. I would have published several books by now as well, but I would still pursue my education. Going to undergraduate school is something that I really want to do because I want to become a Pediatrician. Money may buy a lot of things, but it does not necessarily give you knowledge and knowledge is what I am hunting for now.
    I am not just going to school to get a better job; I am going to school to realize all of my dreams. $ 50 million is a lot of money, but no amount of money can keep me from my dreams.
    Veggie thought: “Money may make things easier, but it is not everything. ”
    Re: If u won $ 50,000,000 would u still go to college?
    Would I still go? UMM , YES YES YES YES YES! ! ! ! !
    I still want to teach... I don’t care if I have more money than Bill Gates... I still want to be in a classroom teaching! ! And I need a degree to do that! Teaching is my dream job, and it would make me really happy.
    I would pay off my loans as well as my boyfriend’s loans and help out a couple of friends who are having trouble with money.
    Re: If u won $ 50,000,000 would u still go to college?
    I would still go to college. The only difference is with that much money to go to college I probably would stay in college longer and pursue a few extra degrees while I am there. I am looking for knowledge not money. The only problem is I need money to pursue knowledge.
    Also I could set up scholarship funds and I could save some more for additional dreams that I have.
    56. According to the answers, what do they have in common?
    A. They all prefer money to education.
    B. They all want to get a better job.
    C. They will continue to pursue knowledge.
    D. They will give up jobs.
    57. From the first answer, we know the person is ________.
    A. patient         B. ambitious        C. mean            D. selfish
    58. In the following statements, which is true according to the passage?
    A. They all have something they want to do.
    B. They think money is more important than knowledge.
    C. The first person is rich.
    D. The second person doesn’t want to get other scholarship.
    59. The underlined phrase “pay off” means ________.
    A. give back      B. cost              C. ask for           D. get

    What if you arrived home to find a delicious hot meal waiting for you，prepared by your very own kitchen robot? It might sound like science fiction，but professors at the university of Tokyo have taken the first steps toward making that scenario a reality．The team recently introduced a humanoid kitchen robot that can pour tea and other drinks into cups and serve them to guests．When teatime is over，the robot can also wash the dishes and put them away．

    In California，another interesting kitchen robot has been developed．Called the Ready-bot，it can pick up objects and either store them in cabinets or put them in the trash．It also carries a separate floor-cleaning robot that can operate by itself．Unlike the Japanese robot，Readybot is not humanoid．Instead，it looks more like a large box with arms and wheels．[来源:Z|xx|k.Com]

    Readybot was created by engineers and designers who established a club called the Readybot Challenge．They believe that in the future millions of robots will be needed in homes to perform ordinary household tasks．Readybot is just the first step in their plan to create a robot that can tackle jobs not only in kitchens but in other rooms of homes and in offices as well．

    Clearly there are technological hurdles to overcome before robots can cook a complete dinner，and there are also many safety concerns．Not everyone（especially parents）would be comfortable with the idea of robots in their house，manipulating hot pans and sharp knives．The European Commission recently funded a project to study these concerns．

    56．What does the writer imply about the Japanese robot?

    A．It performs fewer functions than readybot can．

    B．it looks more like a person than Readybot does．

    C．It speaks more languages than Readybot does．

    D．It costs 1ess to manufacture than Readybot does．

    57．Where do the engineers and designers hope that Readybot will operate in the future?

    A．On spacecraft                                                      B．In automobiles

    C．On playgrounds                                               D．At companies

    58．What does the writer imply about parents?

    A．They have shown tremendous interest in kitchen robots．

    B．They don’t have strong opinions about kitchen robots．

    C．They might think that kitchen robots could be dangerous．

    D．They can’t wait to buy kitchen robots for their homes．

    59．According to the writer，what has the European Commission done for the project?

    A．It has built factories                                                B．It has printed manuals

    C．It has hired workers                                                D．It has provided money
