    Is there something that you’ve always wanted to try but just never had the time? Well, make plans to try it now since you are on summer vacation．Not all vacations call for taking a tour bus to take photos of famous landmarks. Some vacations allow you plenty of opportunities to learn.
    The most difficult aspect of a learning vacation vacation may be choosing one because the possibilities are endless．If you enjoy cooking, various companies can take you to Italy, France, Spain, Mexico or even Peru. Once there, you can learn to prepare the local cuisine（烹饪）. Trips are often planned to fit in with local food festivals or special events.
    The term “learning vacation” often brings language to mind. The best way to learn a language is in an environment where it’s spoken. Study Spanish, French or English. Or attempt a more unusual language like Polish, Estonian or Thai. You’ll be able to learn about the country and absorb the culture at the same time.
    If you are fond of sports, you can polish your skills or learn new ones. Golf and tennis schools welcome players of all levels. If you want a bigger thrill, you can learn to surf, go climbing or race cars. It’s even possible to learn the art and techniques of bull fighting while on vacation!
    You can also discover our inner artist. Many places offer painting classes in different mediums. The scenic locations of the schools offer plenty of subjects that provide inspiration for practice.
    If you prefer capturing the world on film, take a photography vacation. Travel with a small group to photograph beautiful animals or scenery. You can also practise your technique on people or at historical sights.
    Once you decide on a vacation, choose a company carefully. Request names of recent customers you can contact, and then ask them for an evaluation. The more you know before you go, the better prepared you’ll be. Then go out and learn something!
    56．Why is it hard for you to decide on a learning vacation?
    A．Because it is hard for you to make plans.
    B．Because the possibilities are unlimited.
    C．Because there are many good foods from abroad.
    D．Because there’re too many food festivals or events.

    Prisoner Mitchell King had a visitor— his wife. King was serving a six-year prison term in Auckland, New Zealand for armed robbery. But his wife didn’t want to be away from him for that long. So they held hands and they stuck. She’s rubbed her palms with super glue.
    Their new-found closeness was short-lived. And their separation painful. Her technique is not one I'd recommend(introduce) for a closer relationship.
    But if you want more closeness; if you desire relationships that are deeper and broader, more meaningful and longer-lasting, then remember the word "TRAVEL."
    T is for TRUST. Trust is the glue that holds people together (not Super Glue). A relationship will go nowhere without it.
    R is for RESPECT. "Do not save your loving speeches for your friends till they are dead; speak them rather now instead," writes Anna Cummins. It's about respecting others and letting them know that you value them.
    A is for AFFECTION. Sometimes affection means love. Sometimes it means a touch. Always it means kindness.
    V is for VULNERABILITY(harm). Though we may feel afraid to let another too close, no relationship will go anywhere without risking vulnerability. Entrepreneur Jim Rohn says, "The walls we build around us to keep out the sadness also keep out the joy." And the love.
    E is for EMOTIONAL INTIMACY(亲密). Learn to be open. Learn to communicate freely. What kinds of relationships you make are largely determined by how openly you have learned to communicate.
    L is for LAUGHTER. Victor Borge got it right when he said, "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." It's also the most enjoyable.
    For relationships that can really go somewhere, just remember the word "TRAVEL." Then enjoy the trip!
    6．The author intends to _________ by showing us the example in Paragraph One.
    A. condemn the wife for her silly behavior
    B. introduce new ways for closer relationships
    C. tell us King and his wife would never be separated
    D. encourage us to follow the wife’s technique
    7．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph Four refers to?
    A. Trust.                      B. Glue.                       C. Closeness.                D. TRAVEL
    8．Which of the following agrees with what Jim Rohn says?
    A. Walls should be built to keep out the sadness.
    B. It’s unnecessary to avoid vulnerability for closer relationships.
    C. Love will be kept out if you let another too close.
    D. We shouldn’t let another too close because of vulnerability.
    9．What does Victor Borge really mean by his word in the ninth paragraph?
    A. Laughter will keep the shortest distance.
    B. Laughter will make a closer relationship.
    C. No relationship will go without laughter.
    D. Laughter is necessary to make friends.
    10．What would be the best title for this passage?
    A. Relationships.                                       B. The story of a prisoner.
    C. A technique for good relationships.         D. Tips on closer relationships.

    Whenever human populations have lived in forest areas, they have always cut down trees which they used for a number of purposes, for housing and ships and served as a source of heating fuel and timber. Growth of cities often meant expansion into forest areas, while even more trees were removed to provide space for agriculture. With the growing demand for paper, vast quantities of trees have also been cut down for paper production. These factors, along with many others, have been contributing to a dangerous phenomenon known as deforestation.
    In the last 5,000 years, humans have reduced forest from roughly 50 percent of the earth’s land surface to less than 20 percent. Most of this original, or old growth, forest cover is concentrated in three large areas: the Canadian and Alaskan boreal forest, the boreal forest of Russia, and the tropical forest of the northwestern Amazon Basin and the Guyana Shield. These areas comprise almost 70 percent of the world’s remaining original forest cover. In most places, the rate of deforestation is increasing, with the alarming result of 16 million hectares disappearing worldwide every year.
    Loss of forest does not just mean the decline of natural resources. There are several other factors that make deforestation seriously harmful to both the human and natural worlds. One of them is changes in the global climate. For example, forest clearance is releasing substantial volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as vegetation is burnt or decays. It has been suggested that this is a significant factor in global warming. Moreover, about 10 percent of the world’s tree species are in danger of extinction as a result of deforestation. Deforestation also threatens biological diversity through the destruction of wildlife habitats, which endangers a number of animal species and leads to their potential disappearance. Species are particularly easy to extinction in tropical rainforests because many species have few individuals per unit area, which makes reproduction more difficult. Finally, since forests play an important role in storing water and stabilizing soil, deforestation and the resulting change in land use cause soil erosion (腐蚀) and other forms of land degradation.
    72.   The passage discusses all of the following EXCEPT the ________.
    A. causes of deforestation                                   B. consequences of deforestation
    C. management of deforestation                      D. rate of deforestation
    73.   The word “diversity” in the last paragraph probably means “________”.
    A. variety                                                                  B. expansion           
    C. development                                                      D. advantage
    74.   Why does the author mention fuel and timber in Paragraph 1?
    A. To explain the rate of deforestation.
    B. To compare them with housing and ships.
    C. To show the dangers of deforestation.
    D. To illustrate the causes of deforestation.
    75.   Which of the following sentences summarizes Paragraph 3 best?
    A. Deforestation threatens biological diversity.
    B. Deforestation has many harmful consequences.
    C. Deforestation causes changes in global climate.
    D. Deforestation should be stopped.

             All of us eat every day, but most of us don’t understand nutrition. We often make mistakes in talking about good diet.
    For example, many people think that foods such as rice, bread and potatoes will make one grow fat. In fact, these foods are very good to one’s health. They are good sources of many vitamins. And in comparison with steak and beef, they contain less amount of calories.
    Some people don’t like canned(罐装的) or frozen vegetables, because they think fresh vegetables cooked at home are always better. This is again wrong. In fact, whether the vegetables are good or not depends more on how they are prepared. Overcooking, for example, destroys good qualities of vegetables. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a large amount of vitamins.
    It is widely believed extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the body needs doesn’t make it function better.
    It is also wrong to say that vegetables grown in poor, worn-out soil are lower in vitamins than vegetables grown in rich soil. The vitamins in our foods are in the plants themselves. They don’t come from the soil. However, the minerals(矿物质) in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil.
    In short, there are many false ideas about nutrition. We need to correct them.
    46. This passage is mainly about_______.
    A. nutrition                B. vitamins                C. vegetables            D. health
    47. Rice, bread and potatoes do good to people’s health mainly because_______.
    A. they make people fat                              B. there are lot of vitamins in them
    C. they contain less amount of calories compared with steak and beef.
    D. both B and C.
    48. Why don’t some people like canned or frozen vegetables? Because______.
    A. they think fresh vegetables contain less vitamins
    B. they think fresh vegetables contain more vitamins than the canned or frozen ones
    C. they don’t think the canned or frozen vegetables are fresh
    D. they don’t think the canned or frozen vegetables taste as good as the fresh ones
    49. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A. Many people know almost everything about nutrition.
    B. Food such as rice, bread and potatoes make people fat.
    C. vegetables grown in poor worn-out soil may have the same amount of vitamins as vegetables grown in rich soil.
    D. extra vitamins provide less energy.
    50. The point of the passage is that______.
    A. the minerals in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil
    B. people make mistakes when talking about good diet
    C. taking more vitamins than the body needs doesn’t make it function better
    D. vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a large amount of vitamins

    One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the “cashless society” is not on the horizon---it’s already here.
    While computer offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how far they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customer for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.
    Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.
    49.According to the passage, the credit card enables its owner to     .
    A. withdraw as much money from the bank as he wishes
    B. obtain more convenient services than other people do
    C. enjoy great trust from the storekeeper
    D. cash money where he wished to
    50. From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that     .
    A. in the future all the Americans will use credit cads
    B. credit cards are mainly used in the United States today
    C. nowadays many Americans do not pay in cash
    D. it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before
    51. The phrase“ring up sales”most probably means     .
    A. make an order of goods            B. record sales on a cash register
    C. call the sales manager             D. keep track of the goods in stock

        No one is glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by a surgeon（外科医生） and part of it taken out． Today， however， we needn't worry about feeling pain during the operation． The sick person falls into a kind of sleep， and when he awakes， the operation is finished． But these happy conditions are fairly new． It is not many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain．

    Wells took some of the gas，and his friend pulled out one of Well’s teeth．Wells felt no pain at all．
    As he didn't know enough about laughing gas， he gave a man less gas than he should have． The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out．
    Wells tried again，but this time he gave too much of the gas，and the man died．Wells never forgot this terrible event．

    The host poured the tea into the cup and placed it on the small table in front of his guests, who were a father and daughter, and put the cover on the cup. Apparently thinking of something, he hurried into the inner room, leaving the thermos (热水瓶) on the table. His two guests heard a cupboard opening.
    They remained sitting in the sitting room, the ten-year-old daughter looking at the flowers outside the window, the father just about to take his cup, when the crash came, right there in the sitting room. Something was hopelessly broken.
    It was the thermos, which had fallen to the floor. The girl looked over her shoulder, shocked, staring. It was mysterious. Neither of them had touched it, not even a bit. True, it hadn't stood steadily when their host placed it on the table, but it hadn't fallen then.
    The explosion caused the host to rush back. Gawking at the steaming floor, the host said "It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter!"
    The father started to say something. Then he said softly, "Sorry, I touched it and it fell."
    "It doesn't matter," the host said.
    When they left the house, the daughter said, "Daddy, did you touch it?"
    "No. But it stood so close to me. "
    "But you didn't touch it. I saw your reflection in the window glass. "
    The father laughed. "What then would you give as the cause of its fall?"
    "The thermos fell by itself. The floor is not smooth. Daddy, why did you say that you …"
    "That won't do, girl. It sounds more acceptable when I say I knocked it down. There are things which people accept less the more you defend them. The truer the story you tell, the less true it sounds. "
    The daughter was lost in silence for a while. Then she said, "Can you explain it only in this way?"
    "Only in this way," her father said.
    56. Which statement is a possible theme of this story?
    A. People rarely tell the truth.
    B. You can't always make people believe the truth.
    C. If you defend yourself, people will believe you.
    D. People should take the blame for what they didn't do.
    57. It can be inferred from the story that the father _______.
    A. didn't know the host well                    B. felt satisfied that he didn't tell the truth
    C. was sorry that he told the truth                        D. didn't think the host would believe the truth
    58. From the story we know that the daughter ________.
    A. thought her father should tell the truth         B. didn't know why the thermos fell
    C. knocked over the thermos                  D. strongly objected to her father's explanation
    59. The underlined "gawking at" probably means _______.
    A. staring at with anger                  B. looking at curiously
    C. glancing at hopelessly                 D. looking at in a dull way
