        Celebrations spread across China when Shanghai, the Oriental Pearl, was given the right to host the 2010
    World Expo (世博会) on December 3.
        Shanghai won the honor after beating rivals from Russia, Mexico, Poland and South Korea.
        "I'm very proud of being Chinese," said Wang Kaibo, a Senior 2 student of the Middle School Affiliated (隶
    属) to Beijing Medical University. "The winning of the expo is a victory, not only for Shanghai residents, but
    for the people of the whole Chinese nation."
        Bidding (申办) for the expo shows that China is more confident of playing a more important role on the
    international stage. It's competing for large events and the next one could be the World Cup, Wang said.
        The World Expo 2010 and the 2008 Beijing Olympics will become the twin shining stars of China's
    development over the next 10 years, said experts.
        The World Expo is known as"Olympics of the economic, cultural, scientific and technological fields." It is
    usually held every five years and lasts for six months.
        The Olympics, World Cup and World Expo are considered three top international events in the world. China
    is the first developing country to win the expo bid in the event's 151-year history. Not only will it attract more
    foreign investment to China, but experts say that the half-year-long exhibition will bring at least 70 million
    visitors to Shanghai.
        The World Expo is a great event for different countries to exchange social, economic, cultural and scientific
    achievements, and also help to encourage new technology and ideas. The expo was first held in London in
    1851. It has a history of global influence. The Eiffel Tower, built during the Paris World Expo in 1889, became
    the symbol of the French capital. Many historic inventions, such as the telephone and airplane, all made their
    first appearance at a World Expo.
    1. What does the underlined word "rivals" probably mean in the second paragraph?
    [     ]
    A. competitors
    B. enemies
    C. players
    D. supporters

    C. China has become a developed country
    D. China is the first Asian country to win the expo bid in history
    3. As we know, in general, the World Expo is usually held every _____ years, while the Olympics is usually
        held every _____ years.
    [     ]
    A. 4; 5

    请阅读下列应用文和相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
    以下是旅游景点的信息：
         A. Agra Fort
         Near the gardens of the Taj Mahal stands the important 16thcentury Mughal monument known as
    the Red Fort of Agra. This powerful fortress of red sandstone encompasses, within its 2.5 kmlong
    enclosure walls, the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. It comprises many fairy tale palaces, such as the
    Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the DiwaniKhas; and
    two very beautiful mosques.
         B. Taj Mahal
         Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world, and some western historians have
    noted that its architectural beauty has never been surpassed. The Taj is the most beautiful monument
    built by the Mughals, the Muslim rulers of India. Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. It was
    constructed over a period of twentytwo years, employing twenty thousand workers. It was completed
    in 1648 CE at a cost of 32 million Rupees.
         C. Keoladeo National Park
         This former duckhunting reserve of the Maharajas is one of the major wintering areas for large
    numbers of aquatic birds from Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, China and Siberia. Some 364 species of
    birds, including the rare Siberian crane, have been recorded in the park.
         D. Humayun's Tomb, Delhi
         This tomb, built in 1570, is of particular cultural significance as it was the first gardentomb on the
    Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction
    of the Taj Mahal. The gardens also contain the redandwhite sandstone and blackandyellow marble tomb
    of Humayun's wife and the tomb of Humayun's barber.
         E. Grand Canyon National Park
         The Grand Canyon is perhaps the most awesome sight in the United States-and one of the wonders
    of the world. Much of the park's beauty is related to its geology and ecology. The Skywalk at Grand
    Canyon West is really exciting.
         F. Sundarbans National Park
         The Sundarbans covers 10,000 sq. km of land and water (more than half of it in India, the rest in
    Bangladesh) in the Ganges delta. It contains the world's largest area of mangrove forests. A number of
    rare or endangered species live in the park, including tigers, aquatic mammals, birds and reptiles.
    请阅读以下旅游者的信息，然后匹配旅游者和他/她拟旅游的景点。
    1. Carina is fond of art and likes traveling very much. In order to take part in the following exhibition,
    she wants to take some photos of birds from all over the world, especially the rare Siberian crane. In
    the meanwhile, she doesn't want to spend too much money.
    2. Daisy's major is biology. She is interested in studies of tigers in India. Before graduation, she needs
    to write an essay on the tiger. She hears that it is one of the largest tiger populations of any of India's
    parks. And so she wants to go there to do some research.
    3. Alexander is a college student of Physics. He learns that this canyon is a gift from past generations
    that goes beyond what we experience. He is looking forward to going there and experiencing the
    Skywalk in the park.
    4. Sammy majors in history. He will visit it again this summer. He says it's built entirely of white Marble
    and is one of the eight wonders of the world. Its beauty is beyond description, particularly at dawn and
    sunset. It seems to glow in the light of the full moon. On a foggy morning, the visitors experience it as if
    suspended when viewed from across the Jamuna River.
    5. Nancy comes from the history department. Last summer she visited the ancient markets of Agra and
    this year she wants to visit it again. Not long ago she said, “Arriving at the Delhi airport, we

    we got at the hotel's reception.” The next day they visited the famous tomb.

    阅读理解。
         阅读下列材料,从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中，选出符合各小题要求的
    最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。
         Here are five letters from readers listed in 1-5. All the greetings and signatures are left out. Suppose
    you are a secretary of the magazine CR (Crazy English Reader), for each one find a suitable reply from
    A-F. Mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra reply which you don't need
    to use.
         1. I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your
    offering an opportunity to us beginners to practise using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain
    these articles and translated them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.
         2. I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English
    teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I've been giving you a bit of a plug at our
    middle school. I told the students to "get a copy!" It's good stuff! Fantastic!
          3. I'm one of Yao's fans from Guangzhou. I have read the Yao Ming articles in No.7 Crazy English
    Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me?
    Thank you very much indeed.
          4. First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CE Reader editors who gave us a really
    good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you gave us
    some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge, I think you should
    give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the words more
    accurately. Thank you!
          5. I am an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question that is how to say the
    position of the paper e.g., 总编 责任编辑 and so on. I hope you can help me to tell me the word in
    English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now, I do this work, I
    need study more information about this work, if you have time, please email me. Thank you.
         A. Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way
    to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words
    around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it's good to look up the words and then mark them
    down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try
    using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.
         B. The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy
    of an all-English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles
    such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If
    you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I'll try to answer.
         C.The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write
    him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in
    sina. com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write Yao while he's living and playing in
    Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at:   Yao Ming   Compaq Centre 10  Houston, TX 77046
         D.Thank you for being such a careful reader of CR. Yes, you're right we made a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure
    there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep
    improving, so thank you.
         E. Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We
    contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the
    articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some
    information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.
         F. Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We're glad it's helpful to your students. We always try to
    include articles that reflect real life. It's our hope that CR will not only improve student's English but also
    open up a different worldview.
