    Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden change in pronunciation started, with vowels being pronounced shorter and shorter. From the 16th century the British had contact(联系) with people from around the world. This means that many new words and phrases entered the language. The invention of printing also meant that there was a common language in print. Books became cheaper and more people learned to read. Spelling and grammar became fixed and the dialect （方言）of London became the standard. In 1604, the first English dictionary was published.
    The numbers of words in Early Modern English and Late Modern English differ. Late Modern English has a lot more words because of two main factors(因素): firstly, the Industrial Revolution created a need for new words; secondly, the British Empire covered one quarter of the earth’s surface, and the English language took in foreign words from many countries.
    From around 1600, the English colonization(殖民地化)of North America resulted in the creation of American English. Some English pronunciation and words froze when they reached America. In some ways, American English is more like the English of Shakespeare than modern British English. Some expressions that the British call “ Americanisms” are in fact original （原先的）British expressions that were preserved (保存) in the colonies but were lost in Britain. Spanish also had an influence on American English, with words like canyon, ranch, stampede and vigilante being examples of Spanish words that entered English. French words and West African words also influenced American English.
    Today, American English is the most influential(有影响力的). But there are many other kinds of English around the world, including Australian English, New Zealand English, Canadian English, South African English , Indian English and Caribbean English. They have differences.
    小题1:What can we know from Paragraph 1?
    A．The dialect of London became the standard in the year 1604.
    B．Vowels were pronounced longer towards the end of Middle English
    C．The first English dictionary was published in the early 17th century.
    D．Many new words entered English because many people moved to Britain.
    小题2:From Paragraph 2, we know that the Industrial Revolution __________.
    A．required spelling and grammar to be fixed
    B．required a greater number of English words
    C．caused many old English words to be useless
    D．led to the English colonization of North America.
    小题3:The underlined word “froze” in Paragraph 3 shows that some English words in America___________.
    A．became longer
    B．greatly changed
    C．a little changed
    D．stayed as they were
    小题4:What will the paragraph following this passage most probably discuss?
    A．The development of Modern English
    B．How the English vocabulary became larger
    C．Differences among the different kinds of English
    D．Differences between Middle English and Modern English

    Americans often plan social gatherings（社交聚会）on short notice, so don’t be surprised if you get invited to someone’s home or to see a movie or baseball game without much warning. If the time is convenient (方便) for you, surely accept their invitation. But if you’re busy, don’t be afraid to decline the invitation, perhaps suggesting a time that would be better. Your host won’t be shamed.
    Invitations are usually sent in person or over the telephone. The main exception(例外) is for some formal occasions, in which case a written invitation will be mailed. You would normally receive a written invitation to a wedding(婚礼).
    For a casual(不正式的)dinner invitation, don’t arrive more than 5 minutes early, because your host may still be preparing for your visit. Arriving more than 10 minutes late is considered rude if very few people were invited. If many people were invited, it’s OK to arrive a little late, even as much as half an hour late. For example, it’s OK to arrive late for a party, for a potluck (家常便饭) dinner or for a social gathering inviting a large group of people.
    If you’re invited for dinner, it’s proper to bring the host a bottle of wine, a gift basket of fruit, a box of candy (糖果), or a bouquet(束)of flowers. Don’t bring roses, as men often give roses to women on a date (约会).
    If you wish to thank the host for his or her hospitality (好客), it’s right to call or send a brief (简单的) written thank-you note the next day.
    小题1:The passage is to tell us ________.
    A．how to accept Americans’ invitations.
    B．something about American social visits.
    C．something about American business visits.
    D．how to make a living in America.
    小题2:The underlined word “decline” in the first paragraph most probably means _____.
    A．acceptB．receiveC．refuseD．follow
    小题3:If an American only invites you to his home for an informal supper at 7:30p.m., you’d better get to his house at ________.
    A．7:15p.m.B．7:35p.m.C．7:45p.m.D．7:55p.m.
    小题4:In America, invitations to a wedding are often sent ________.
    A．by mailB．by faxC．by e-mailD．over the telephone

    B．if you’re invited for a party, you must always be on time.
    C．if you’re invited for dinner, you’d better bring some presents.
    D．you must make a call to show your thanks after you get home from the dinner.

    Puerto Rico may be part of the USA but its music and dance is a mixture of both Spanish and African rhythms. The country, as a result, is a mixture of very new and very old. It exhibits the open American way of yet retains the more formal Spanish influences. This is reflected in the architecture, not just the contrast between the colonial and the modern in urban areas but also in the countryside, where older buildings sit side by side with concrete schools and buildings.
    However, if you do not wander beyond the tourist areas on the coast, you will not experience the real Puerto Rico. Old volcanic mountains, long inactive, occupy a large part of the interior（内陆）, with the highest peak, Cerro de Punta, at 1,338m in the Cordillera Central. North of the Cordillera is the karst （岩溶）country where the limestone（石灰石）has been acted upon by water to produce a series of small steep hills and deep holes. The mountains are surrounded by a coastal plain with the Atlantic shore beaches cooled all the year round by trade winds.
    The population is 3.8 million, of which about 1.5 million live in San Juan, although about another two million Puerto Ricans live in the USA Average life expectancy is 73.8 years and GDP per capita is US $12,212, the highest in Latin America, although not up to the level of mainland USA. Most Puerto Ricans do not speak English and less than 30% speak it fluently. Second generation Puerto Ricans who were born in New York but who have returned to the island, are called Nuyoricans. The people are very friendly and hospitable but there is crime, liked to drugs and unemployment.
    小题1:What are the disadvantages of Puerto Rico?
    A．Too many Puerto Ricans live in the USA
    B．Few people in Puerto Rico can speak English

    C．is an agricultural countryD．is gently affected by Africa
    小题3:Nuyorican is a person who _______.

    When I first saw the book Alice in Lace, I thought I was going to like it. And as it turned out, I love it! I love books about life and being a kid. And Alice in Lace is just that kind. It’s a humorous book about being thirteen and the problems kids might face. Alice and her friends get a strange assignment from their totally cool teacher, Mr. Everett. It was like playing the game of “Life,” but you had to act it out.
    So Pamela is pregnant, Elizabeth buys a car and Alice gets married. Well, of course, Pamela wasn’t really pregnant, but she walked around with a pillow under her shirt to get people’s reactions. Elizabeth didn’t really buy a car, but she went to the car lot and made the sales guy think she was. The whole class got assignments like these! I would love to do something like that for school.
    In the book Alice has a lot to think about. “Getting married is hard!” Alice says. She has to plan the ceremony, the honeymoon, find a place to live, pay for furniture and two months’ rent and food. Maybe she and her “husband” could work it out — if they were getting on fine!
    Although this book was funny, it really made me think about how problems like these could really mess up your life. Take teenage pregnancy for example. How could you have a baby and stay in school? You couldn’t find a babysitter every day to stay with your kid. A child really consumes your life. I understand what the teacher was trying to do. He was trying to discourage the class from getting into these problems by giving them a glimpse of life. As someone about to become a teenager myself, I can say sometimes a story makes you think about what’s up ahead.
    Overall, I would say this book is wonderful. My favorite part of the book is discovering that if I like it, there are seven other Alice books I can check out at my local library. I love this book, and I hope you will too.
    小题1:We can infer from the passage that Pamela, Elizabeth and Alice _______.
    A．turn out to be the author’s classmates
    B．are characters in Alice in Lace
    C．get along quite well
    D．become dismissed from school
    小题2:By saying “getting married is hard” in the paragraph 3, Alice means ______.
    A．life isn’t easy as expected
    B．it is hard to deal with her husband
    C．she regrets getting married
    D．it’s fun to get married
    小题3:Why did Mr. Everett give his students such assignments?
    A．To encourage them to enjoy a meaningful life.
    B．To prevent them getting into those troubles at an early age.
    C．To make them realize the hardship of life.
    D．To teach them how to make a living.
    小题4:The author writes the passage mainly to _____.
    A．advise us to buy Alice in Lace
    B．tell us how wonderful Mr. Everett’s idea is
    C．share her inspiration from Alice in Lace
    D．show off her reading ability

    ⑴ Every language has its own special words and expressions. And a story can be told about each of them. Hot is a simple, easily understood word. So are most of the expressions made with the word hot. But not always, as we shall see.
    ⑵ The words hot potato, for example, give you no idea at all to the meaning of the expression, hot potato. The potato is popular and many Americans like baked potatoes. Imagine trying to carry a hot potato in your hand. It would be difficult, even painful, to do so. Some publicly argued problems are highly emotional. The problems must be treated carefully, or they will be difficult and painful if an elected official has to deal with them. One such hot potato is taxes. Calling for higher taxes can mean defeat for a politician. And yet, if taxes are not raised, some very popular government programs could be cut. And that also can make a politician very unpopular. The questions must be dealt with carefully, the same way you would handle any other hot potato.
    ⑶ Another expression is not so hot. If you ask someone how she feels, she may answer “not so hot”. What she means is she does not feel well. Not so hot also is a way of saying you do not really like something. You may tell a friend that the new play you saw last night is not so hot. That means ____________________________.
    ⑷ A hot shot is a person, often a young person, who thinks he can do anything. He is very sure he can succeed. But often he fails. The expression was born in the military forces. A hot shot was a soldier who fired without aiming carefully.
    ⑸ Hot is a word that is often used to talk about anger. A person who becomes angry easily is called a hothead. An angry person’s neck often becomes red. We say he is hot under the collar.
    小题1:What is the text mainly about? (no more than 8 words)
    _______________________________________________________________
    小题2:Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence. ( no more than 8 words)
    __________________________________________________________________
    小题3:Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?
    As you would deal with other difficult problems, you must be careful with these ones.
    __________________________________________________________________________________
    小题4:List three situations where “hot” expressions can be used according to the text. (no more than 30 words)
    ①________________________________________________________________
    ②________________________________________________________________
    ③________________________________________________________________
    小题5:Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 into Chinese.
    __________________________________________________________________

    I hated dinner parties. But I decided to give them another shot because I’m in London. And my friend Mallery invited me. And because dinner parties in London are very different from those back in New York. There, “I’m having a dinner party” means “I’m booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you can’t afford and we’ll be sharing the cheque evenly, no matter what you eat.”
    Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives. They’ll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more. But if I try to use the same trick, the hostess will shout “Where are you going?” And it’s not like I can say I have somewhere to go : everyone knows I have nowhere to go.
    But in London, dinner parties are in people’s homes. Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix. The last time I went to one, the guests were from France, India, Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations. In New York, the mix is less striking. It’s like a gathering at Bloomingdale’s, a well-known department store.
    For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New York. But at Mallery’s, when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was. In New York people would think it was a usual new club.
    小题1:What does the word “shot” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
    A．Choice.B．Try.C．Style. D．Goal.
    小题2:What does the author dislike most about dinner parties in New York?
    A．There is a strange mix of people.B．The restaurant are expensive.
    C．The bill is not fairly shared.D．People have to pay cash.
    小题3:What does the author think of the parties in London?
    A．A bit unusual.B．Full of tricks.
    C．Less costly.D．More interesting.
    小题4:What is the author’s opinion of some New Yorkers from her experience?
    A．Easygoing.. B．Self-centred.
    C．Generous.D．Conservative.
    小题5:What is the main idea of this article?
    A．The author hated dinner parties.
    B．The author prefer dinner parties in London to those in New York.
    C．The difference between London and New York.
    D．Mallery invited the author to a party.

    The invention of the electric telegraph gave birth to the communications industry.Although Samuel B．Morse succeeded in making the invention useful in 1837，it was not until 1843 that the first important telegraph line was constructed.By 1860 more than 50,000 miles of lines connected people east of the Rockies.The following year，San Francisco was added to the network.
    The national telegraph network strengthened the ties between East and West and contributed to the rapid expansion of the railroads by providing an efficient means to monitor schedules and routes.Furthermore，the extension of the telegraph，combined with the invention of the steam－driven rotary printing press by Richard
    M．Hoe in 1846，revolutionized the world of journalism.Where the business of news gathering had been dependent upon the mail and on hand－operated presses，the telegraph expanded the amount of information a newspaper could supply and allowed for more timely reporting.The creating of the Associated Press as a central wire service in 1846 marked the arrival of a new era (纪元) in journalism.
    小题1:The main topic of the passage is ________.
    A．the history of journalism
    B．the origin of the national telegraph
    C．how the telegraph network contributed to the expansion of railroads

    Hundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, love their country. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland. But there were too many of the Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.
    　　One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight, my men,” he said, “Tomorrow we will fight one more battle①. We must win, or we will die.”
