    		The BNK 975XF: AT $3,200
    		The CGP 8PT

    This computer comes with lots of good software. However it does not have much memory and is rather slow. At $2,850 it’s not very good value for money.

    This is the most expensive computer we tested. However it is also the most reliable (可靠的). It is very fast and has lots of memory. It is worth the extra money if you can afford it.

    At only $1,900. It has lots of memory and is quite fast. However it broke down twice while we were testing it and we cannot recommend (建议) it for reliability.

    阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从下列各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    The human nose is an underestimated tool. Humans are often thought to be  1___ smellers compared with animals, but this is largely because, unlike animals, we stand upright. This means that our noses are  2 to detecting those smells which float through the air,  3  the majority of smells which stick to surfaces. In fact though, we are extremely sensitive to smells, even if we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of  4 human smells even when these are  5  to far below one part in one million.
    　　  6    , some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, while others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate  7    smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send  8   to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell at first can suddenly become sensitive to it when  9    to it often enough.
    　　The  10  for insensitivity to smell seems to be that brain finds it  11   to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can  12  new receptors if necessary. This may also explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells we simply do not need to be. We are not  13    of the usual smell of our own house but we  14    new smells when we visit someone else's. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors _ 15   for unfamiliar and emergency signals such as the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.

    That “Monday morning feeling” could be a crushing pain in the chest which leaves you sweating and gasping for breath. Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday mornings and doctors blame the stress of returning to work after the weekend break.
    The risk of having a heart attack on any given day should be one in seven, but a six-year study helped by researchers at the Free University of Berlin of more than 2,600 Germans showed that the average person had a 20 percent higher chance of having a heart attack on a Monday than on any other day.
    Working Germans are particularly not protected against attack, with a 33 percent higher risk at the beginning of the working week. Non-workers, by comparison, appear to be no more at risk on a Monday than any other day.
    A study of 11,000 Italians proved 8 am on a Monday morning as the most stressful time for the heart, and both studies showed that Sunday is the least stressful day, with fewer heart attacks in both countries.
    The findings could lead to a better understanding of what is the immediate cause of heart attacks, according to Dr Stefan Willich of the Free University. “We know a lot about long-term risk factors such as smoking and cholesterol（胆固醇）but we don’t know what actually causes heart attacks, so we can’t give clear advice on how to prevent them,” he said.
    Monday mornings have a double helping of stress for the working body as it makes a rapid change from sleep to activity, and from the relaxing weekend to the pressures of work.
    “When people get up, their blood pressure and heart rate go up and there are hormonal（内分泌）changes in their bodies,” Willich explained. “All these things can have an unfavourable effect in the blood system and increase the risk of a clot（血凝块）in the arteries（动脉）which will cause a heart attack.”
    “When people return to work after a weekend off, the pace of their life changes. They have a higher workload, more stress, more anger and more physical activity,” said Willich.
    小题1:．Monday morning feeling, as this passage shows,         .
    A．is not so serious as people thought
    B．is harmful to working people in Germany and Italy
    C．is the first killer in Germany and Italy.
    D．is created by researchers in Germany and Italy
    小题2:．To protect people from suffering from heart attack, doctors have paid much attention to     .     
    A．people’s working timeB．people’s living place
    C．people’s diet and lifestyle D．people’s nationalities
    小题3:．It can be learned from this passage that heart attack has nothing to do with     .
    A．blood pressureB．heart rateC．hormonal changesD．blood group
    小题4:．If the researchers give us some advice to avoid Monday morning feeling, what might it be?
    A．Stop working on MondayB．Create a pleasant working environment
    C．Get up late on Monday morningD．Go to work with a doctor
    小题5:.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A．The risk of having heart attacks on Monday mornings is the same as on any other day of the week to non-workers
    B．33% of the Germans have heart diseases, therefore heart attacks are more common in Germany than in any other country.
    C．20%of the Italians appear to have higher possibility of having heart attacks.
    D．Non-smokers are more likely to have heart attacks on Sundays.

    The rise of the so-called “boomerang generation” is revealed in official figures showing that almost one in five graduates in their late 20s now live with their parents.
    By contrast, only one in eight university graduates had failed to fly the nest by the same age 20 years ago. It also found that grown-up sons are twice as likely as their sisters to still be living with their parents in their late 20s. With nearly a quarter of men approaching 30 still living at home, the findings are bound to lead to claims of a “generation of mummy’s boys”.
    Young professionals in their late 20s or early 30s have been nicknamed the “boomerang generation” because of the trend toward returning to the family home having initially left to study. Recent research has suggested that young people in Britain are twice as likely to choose to live with their parents in their late 20s than their counterparts elsewhere in Europe.
    Rising property prices, mounting student debts and the effects of recession on the job market have forced a wave of young people to move back into the family home at an age when they would normally be moving out. But commentators warned that the phenomenon may have more to do with young people facing “dire” prospects than simply a desire to save money.
    While the proportion of those of university or college age moving out from the family home has continued to rise in the last 20 years, among those in their mid and late 20s the trend has been reversed. Overall 1.7 million people aged from 22 to 29 now share a roof with their parents, including more than 760,000 in their late 20s. In 1988, 22.7 per cent of men aged 25 to 29 were still living with their parents but last year the proportion was 24.5 per cent.
    小题1: What is the main idea of the passage?
    A．The economic crisis has shown its effect on the young generation.
    B．More young professionals are returning home to live.
    C．British parents are suffering more loads from their grown-up children.
    D．Britain is suffering more than any other country in Europe.
    小题2: Which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A．Male children seem to more independent than females.
    B．Eighty percent of university graduates were able to live independently two decades ago.
    C．The grown-up children choose to live with their parents only to save money.
    D．More and more children are moving out at university age.
    小题3: What does the underlined word “dire” probably mean?
    A．promising.B．inconvenient.C．very bad.D．hopeful
    小题4: The following factors may account for the phenomenon except _____.
    A．that living prices have risen a lot.
    B．that it’s difficult to land a job.
    C．that education has already cost them a lot
    D．that parents can help them more

    A powerful earthquake struck the northeastern coast of Japan at two forty-six p.m. local time on March eleventh.2011. Japan's Meteorological Agency released its first tsunami（海啸） warnings just three minutes later. The country has one of the best earthquake early warning systems in the world.
    There are more than four thousand Seismic Intensity Meters in place throughout Japan to measure earthquake activity. These meters provide information within two minutes of an earthquake happening. Information about the strength and the center of the earthquake can be learned within three minutes.
    There are also concrete(混凝土) sea walls around much of the Japanese coastline. But these measures proved no match for the powerful earthquake and tsunami.
    Costas Synolakis ，a tsunami expert at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles said，"Japan is one of those most well-prepared countries on earth in terms of tsunami warning. They had a warning. I think what went wrong is that they had not expected the size of this event."
    He says there are two reasons for this. Japan has not had any event anywhere near as big as this one in the last one hundred fifty years. And scientists had not expected such a large earthquake happening off the coast of Japan.
    The nine point zero magnitude earthquake was the fourth most powerful earthquake ever recorded worldwide. It was also the worst earthquake ever to hit Japan. The tsunami waves that followed were reported to have reached as high as thirteen meters in some areas.
    Costas Synolakis says Japan's concrete sea walls were not built to handle such high waves.
    Experts say early warning systems will continue to be limited by these facts until earthquakes and tsunamis can be predicted
    小题1:Where can this passage probably be adapted from?
    A．A magazine on scienceB．A fairy Tale
    C．A scientific fantasy bookD．A newspaper
    小题2:Which of the following statements NOT true ?
    A．A terrible earthquake hit the northeastern coast of Japan
    B．It was also the worst earthquake in Japan
    C．The 9.0 earthquake was the fourth most powerful earthquake ever recorded in Japan
    D．Japan's concrete sea walls was unable to handle such high waves.
    小题3:According to Costas Synolakis, why did Japan suffer such a loss?
    A．The country has never experienced any event as big as this one over the past 150 years
    B．Japan has the best earthquake early warning systems in the world.
    C．There are not concrete sea walls around all of the Japanese coastline
    D．The government didn’t announce its first tsunami warnings three minutes earlier.

    Some people love eating food right after it is cooked. I prefer food just take out from the freezer. Fruit, candy, nuts, chocolate, cake with butter cream frosting(糖霜),even peas, all of them taste delicious when frozen. In fact, I often eat them that way.
    I was a kid when I picked up the habit. In my family, lots of things were thrown into the freezer —finally, two freezers—to prevent them from going bad. Among them were some of the candies my sisters and I had collected on Halloween.
    If we eat when they are still warm, we’ll find ourselves taking the cookies more than we should. It’s better if we can put them into the freezer and wait. That way we’ll eat less and enjoy them more because they are hard and chewing becomes a slower, more patient effort. That’s the point about frozen butter-cream frosting. Put it in your mouth at room temperature, and it’s gone very quickly. But when it’s frozen, you can enjoy the taste much longer as it melts(融化) in your mouth.
    The freezer treats a lot of fruits kindly. Take frozen grapes for example, I keep a bowl of grapes in my freezer. They become a little icy, and somehow their sweetness is improved. They are perfect and healthy dessert(点心).This is the same with oranges, apples, bananas…You might think bananas would get super-hard when frozen. Wrong! They become cool, creamy and sweet. If you have wisely covered some or all of the bananas with melted chocolate before putting them into the freezer, they will have a double taste.
    As long as you aren’t eating anything that truly has to be hot, go ahead and experiment.
    小题1: What is the passage intended to tell us ____________.
    A．Fruit should be frozen before one eats it. B．Frozen food is better than hot food.
    C．The author prefers frozen food.D．Hot food is not healthy.
    小题2:The author began to enjoy frozen food when he _________.
    A．was youngB．learned cookingC．got marriedD．got a fever
    小题3: Why does the author NOT advise us to take hot cookies?
    A．Because they need more time to prepare.
    B．Because the taste is not good when they are hot.
    C．Because they are too delicious to avoid our overeating.
    D．Because we may eat them quickly and enjoy them less.
    小题4:What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?
    A．The tasteB．Butter creamC．The cookieD．Frozen butter cream frosting
    小题5: Which of the following is the advice the author gives on eating fruit?
    A．Make bananas hard.B．Keep grapes in a bowl.
    C．Mix kinds of fruits together.D．Add melted chocolate to bananas.

    Libraries everywhere in the world have always been people’s only access to important sources of information.  This historical function of libraries has worked out for centuries and has made libraries a necessity to people.  Now, that function has been called into question by the fast development of digital media over the past several decades. In order to continue to hold the public interest, libraries everywhere are forced to develop means of granting access to these expensive new services to average people.
    In the past, the publishing industry maintained the rights of libraries to freely provide published materials on the condition that libraries bought so many of their books. Since the new electronic publications can easily be copied in their completeness by the library readers, the publishing industry is reconsidering its former support of the library system. There have even been attempts to stop libraries from delivering digital media.
    In addition to the reluctant cooperation of the publishing industry, there is the problem that the newer forms of information are much more specialized than those which they replace. Deciding how to transfer already limited resources is increasingly difficult as there are more methods. While a single reference index(索引) might have covered an entire field in the past, now there are frequently several specialized indexes available in electronic form. Above all, in order to continue to make use of the newer technology, libraries must decide which kinds of material are most useful to the majority of their readers. There are many different solutions being applied, but only the process of trial and error will help find out the most effective method.
    （Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 20 WORDS）
    1. What has been called into question?
    2. In the past, publishers cooperate with libraries because ______________.
    3. The most important way to use the new technology is to determine ________
    4. According to the passage, how can best solutions be found?

    Running like the wind, roaring like thunder, tigers have long been feared and respected as a king of the animal world．But last week a report said that there are no more than 30 wild tigers left in south China．
    This was the conclusion of a team of scientists from China's State Forestry Administration and the World Nature Fund．
    The South China tiger, also known as the Chinese tiger, is native to southern China．In the 1950's, there were over 4000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country．But due to the destruction of their natural habitat and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the world's top ten most endangered species．
    Sixty-six of the big cats can be found in the cages of a dozen zoos around China．But they are nothing like their wild cousins．They have lost their natural skills such as hunting and killing．If they were set free they could not look after themselves．
    "Breeding has damaged the quality of the species", said Pei Enle, deputy director of the Shanghai Zoo．
    To reintroduce the species into the wild, the country started a programme to send five to ten young tigers to South Africa．Four of them have already arrived．Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts（本能）and can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base．
    " South Africans are very experienced in reintroducing big animals to the wild．The country has very good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in", said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and Development Center．" We tried in Fujian Province, but it was not successful as there was not a complete eco-chain（生物链） and there was a lack of space．"
    The tigers should return to China in 2007 when the reservations in Fujian are ready．
    1．What is the main reason for the South China tiger becoming one of the world's top ten most endangered species?
    A．Because it has lost its natural instincts．        B．Because there is not a complete eco-chain．
    C．Because there is no space for it．                 D．Because uncontrolled hunting has destroyed its natural living conditions．
    2．How is the programme of sending several tigers to South Africa getting on?
    A．Its effect still remains to be seen．
    B．Two tigers can already compete with their wild cousins．
    C．Some of the tigers are already on the road to recovering their natural skills．
    D．The tigers should be able to recover their instincts completely by 2007．
    3．By saying " but they are nothing like their wild cousins", the writer means that ______．
    A．they are no longer feared by other wild animals
    B．they don't know how to hunt or kill
    C．a complete change has resulted in the species because of breeding
    D．to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task
    4．What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa?
    A．To help the tigers recover their ability to live in the wild．
    B．To provide them with a better environment．
    C．To get the tigers to go on a tour．
    D．To find a complete eco-chain for them．
    5．Which one is not the reason for South Africa being chosen as the training place?
    A．Because the tigers can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base．
    B．Because South Africans are skilled at dealing with the tigers．
    C．Because there is a complete eco-chain and enough space there．
    D．Because the country has good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in．
