    Each high school has its own policy. One good example is that some high schools require all students to wear uniforms, while others do not. I have been to both types of schools, and if I have to decide which one is better, I will pick the former.
    Perhaps every student has this experience: once you are in your school uniforms, you will care more about your own behavior. Uniforms give you an identity that always reminds that you belong to a group. What you do will not only represent yourself, but also the group you belong to, as well as the people with you. In other words, you carry the responsibility to maintain the honor of the group. When you are in your own clothes, it doesn’t matter for you to behave badly in public, but when in your uniform, it does. For high school students, who are not adults yet, this is a good way to shape their behavior.
    Moreover, uniforms create an atmosphere of equality. While permitted to wear their won clothes, students may pay much attention to what they wear, in order to show how rich their families are. While in uniforms, all students, rich or poor, look the same, and will be treated equally.
    Besides, free from the desires to gain what is new in the shopping mall, wearing uniforms helps students to concentrate on their study.
    For all the reasons above, I believe that it is a better choice for high school students to wear uniforms.  They can wear them after school or on weekends.
    小题1:According to the author, high schools that require students to wear uniforms______.
    A．are more attractive to students
    B． are more strict with students
    C． carry out a better policy
    D． admit more excellent students.
    小题2:How many reasons does the author give to support his or her ideas?
    A．twoB．threeC．fourD．five
    小题3:According to Paragraph 2, wearing uniforms helps students_______.
    A．focus on their study
    B．become responsible
    C．build up their confidence
    D．find the group they belong to
    小题4: What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．A wise choice, to wear school uniform
    B．An honor, to wear your school uniform
    C．A difficult choice, in school uniform or not?
    D．A difficult choice, which school should we pick?

    小题1:C
    小题2:B
    小题3:B
    小题4:A

    本文是一篇议论文。作者主张中学最好要求学生上学统一穿校服。
    小题1:作者态度判断题。作者在第一段说要求学生穿校服和不要求学生穿校服的两种中学“我”都去过。如果要“我”说哪一种学校的政策更好，我会选择前者。由此判断C项正确。从中不能以偏盖全的判断校规或无根据的判断招生情况，故排除B，D项。
    小题2:全文为“总---分----总“结构。作者首先阐述了自己的观点，然后从三个方面加以论证：穿校服有助于塑造学生行为；营造一种平等的氛围；可以使学生全身心的投入学习。最后一段作者再次声明自己的观点。
    小题3:细节理解题。第二段在论述之后，有一句总结；In other words，you carry the responsibility to maintain the honor of the group。由此判断B项正确。
    小题4:归纳标题题。作者在首尾段均提出自己的观点：要求学生穿校服是一种更好的选择，首尾呼应，中间三段陈述理由，进行论证。故A项做标题最佳。

    Plants can’t communicate by moving or making sounds, as most animals do. Instead, plants Produce volatile compounds, chemicals that easily change from a liquid to a gas. A flower’s sweet smell, for example, comes from volatile compounds that the plant produces to attract insects such as Bugs and bees.
    Plants can also detect volatile compounds produced by other plants. A tree under attack by Hungry insets, for instance, may give off volatile compounds that let other trees know about the Attack. In response, the other trees may send off chemicals to keep the bugs away ——or even  Chemicals that attract the bugs’ natural enemies.
    Now scientists have created a quick way to understand what plants are saying: a chemical Sensor（传感器）called an electronic nose. The “e-nose” can tell compounds that crop plants make When they’re attacked Scientists say the e-nose could help quickly detect whether plants are being Eaten by insects. But today the only way to detect such insects is to visually inspect individual Plants. This is a challenging task for managers of greenhouses, enclosed gardens than can house Thousands of plants.
    The research team worked with an e-nose than recognizes volatile compounds. Inside the device, 13 sensors chemically react with volatile compounds Based on these interactions, the e-nose gives off electronic signals that the scientists analyze using computer software.
    To test the nose, the team presented it with healthy leaves from cucumber, pepper and tomato plants, all common greenhouse crops. Then scientists collected samples of air around damaged leaves from each type of crop, These plants had been damaged by insects, or by scientists who made holes in the leaves with a hole punch（打孔器）. The e-nose, it turns out, could identify healthy cucumber, pepper and tomato plants based on The volatile compounds they produce, It could also identify tomato leaves that had been damaged. But even more impressive, the device could tell which type of damage ---- by insects or with a hole Punch ---- had been done to the tomato leaves.
    With some fine-tuning, a device like the e-nose could one day be used in greenhouses to quickly spot harmful bugs, the researchers say. A device like this could also be used to identify fruits that are perfectly ripe and ready to pick and eat, says Natalia Dudareva, a biochemist at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind. who studies smells of flowers and plants. Hopefully, scientists believe, the device could bring large benefits to greenhouse managers in the near future.
    小题1:We learn from the text that plants communicate with each other by____.
    A．making some soundsB．waving their leaves
    C．producing some chemicalsD．sending out electronic signals
    小题2:What did the scientists do to find out if the e-nose worked?
    A．They presented it with all common crops.
    B．They fixed 13 sensors inside the device.
    C．They collected different damaged leaves.
    D．They made tests on damaged and healthy leaves.
    小题3:According to the writer, the most amazing thing about the e-nose is that it can___.
    A．pick out ripe fruits
    B．spot the insects quickly
    C．distinguish different damages to the leaves
    D．recognize unhealthy tomato leaves
    小题4:We can infer from the last paragraph that the e-nose_____.
    A．is unable to tell the smell of flowers
    B．is not yet used in greenhouses
    C．is designed by scientists at Purdue
    D．is helpful in killing harmful insects

    I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-lime and the nature of black holes.
    At 19, when I began studying astrophysics, it didn’t bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement-jobs, research papers, awards-was viewed through the lens of gender(性别) politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus right brain, or nature versus nurture(培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.
    Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t dismiss those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.
    1. Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?
    A. She feels unhappy working in male-dominated fields.
    B. She is fed up with the issue of gender discrimination
    C. She is not good at telling stories of the kind
    D. She finds space research more important
    2. Form Para 3, we can infer that people would attribute (归结于) the author’s failures to___
    A. the very fact that she is a woman
    B. her involvement in gender politics
    C. her over-confidence as a female astrophysicist
    D. the burden she bears in a male-dominated society
    3. How does the author feel when talking about her class?
    A. worried  B. satisfied   C. excited  D. concerned
    4. What does the image the author presents to her students suggest?
    A. Women students needn’t have the concerns of the generation
    B. women have more barriers on their way to academic success
    C. Women can balance a career in science and having a family
    D. Women now have fewer problems in pursuing a science career

    Why do women earn less than men?
    Women earn less than men. For example, in 1988 the hourly wages of women in the U.S. were 16% less than those of men. The gap between male and female incomes varies with age. The gap between the labor incomes of young women and young men is much smaller than that between middle-aged women and men. It is also clear that jobs in which women are concentrated pay less. The larger the number of workers in an industry who are women, the lower the average wages.
    Why do women earn less than men? Are the differences explained by the fact that women are looked down upon? If so, the government has to intervene, to force the employers to pay equal wages to equal jobs. however, there is no agreement among economists about the causes of the gap. One view argues that women on the average have chosen low-paying jobs in which workers enjoy the freedom of entering and leaving the labor force, which reduces their years of experience relative to men. Other people say the gap can also be explained by the difference in educational background which is shown in the difference in the marginal product between men and women.
    Much of the gap, however, has not been fully explained. It might be the result of some bias against women. It is this part that has produced calls for government action. What would happen if the government did intervene to increase the wages paid to women? One possibility is that incomes for women as a group might actually decline. An increase in wage decreases the quantity of labor input demanded, resulting in decreased employment as the rate of hiring new workers declines. The result will be a surplus of labor. Those who can find jobs might be better off while those who had jobs might find themselves out of work.
    小题1:The difference in labor incomes is most obvious between _______.
    A．young men and young women
    B．young women in the same industry
    C．middle-aged men and middle-aged women
    D．middle-aged women in the same industry
    小题2:Some economists believe women earn less than men partly because ______.
    A．women are less experienced than men
    B．women are only provided with low-paying jobs
    C．women have much freedom in selecting their jobs
    D．there is more than enough women in the labor force
    小题3:Which of the following cannot be inferred from the second paragraph?
    A．Women receive less education than men.
    B．Women are not as productive as men.
    C．Levels of education are closely related to productivity.
    D．Goods produced by women are not as good as those by men.
    小题4:What does the author suggest that the government should do for women workers?
    A．To ensure equal pay for women.
    B．To explain why women are paid less.
    C．To force employers to hire more women.
    D．No solution is clearly suggested.
    小题5:What would happen if women’s wages were raised?
    A．Input of capital would be increased.
    B．The unemployment rate would go up.
    C．Those that have jobs would become better off.
    D．Women as a group would earn more than before.

    Antinuclear Demonstration
    Police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5,000 passively resisting protestors Friday in an attempt to break up the largest antinuclear demonstration ever staged in the United States. More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse.
    Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. “This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law,” he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances.
    The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read “No Nukes is Good Nukes,” “Sun-power, Not Nuclear Power,” and “Stop Private Profits from Public Peril.” They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by police failed to dislodge the protestors who had come prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.
    小题1:What were the demonstrators protesting about?
    A Private profits.     B Nuclear Power Station.
    C The project of nuclear power construction.   D Public peril.
    小题2:Who had gas-masks?
    A Everybody.    B A part of the protestors.
    C Policemen.    D Both B and C.
    小题3:Which of the following was NOT mentioned as a reason for the demonstration?
    A Public transportation.    B Public peril.
    C Pollution.             D Disposal of wastes.
    小题4:With whom were the jails and courts overloaded?
    A With prisoners.        B With arrested demonstrators.
    C With criminals.        D With protestors.
    小题5:What is the attitude of Governor Stanforth Thumper toward the power project and the demonstration?
    A stubborn.       B insistent.     C insolvable.        D remissible.

    PHUKET, Thailand—— Narkis Koral, 23, and Oren Mesika, 24, had no sense of the terrible tsunami that hit Southeast Asia: They were having “a good time ”on the island of Koh Chang in Thailand and only learned of their present situation hours later, through friends who received phone calls from home.
    Even though the pair, both from Arad, escaped the tsunami’ s anger, it did not change the fact that their parents were worried  
    “Our mothers worried a lot, ”says Koral. “They asked us to leave immediately and return to Israel. They offered to arrange flights, anything we wanted, just return. ”
    Dana Kuchansky’ s father is also worried. Kuchansky, 28, and her partner were in Kofun, a small island hit hard by the tsunami. After a night spent on the top of the mountain in the center of the island, the two were taken for free to Bangkok, where they were expected to fly to Israel.
    On the telephone, the worried father made sure his daughter received the replacement tickets lost in the tsunami 15 minutes later, he called her again, to remind her of the flight number.
    Most of the Israelis visiting Thailand are young and on a limited budget. Their parents are used to having insufficient contact with their children. In most cases, this contact is when the phone call or the use of the Internet is cheap, even if the difference between "expensive" and "cheap" is less than 50 agorot, or cents.
    In one case this past week, a mother called the mobile telephone of each of the six embassy（大使馆）staff in Thailand, one after the other. The same duty officer answered all six.
    The common reaction of both parents and children, once telephone contact was made, was sobbing with relief that the ordeal（严峻考验）had left them unharmed.
    小题1:According to the text, Narkis and Oren________.
    A．called their friends to tell them what had happened
    B．had great fun even if they knew the tsunami had come
    C．knew nothing about the tsunami until their friends rang them up
    D．turned out calm in face of the tsunami
    小题2:Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
    A．Kuchansky and her partner had their tickets missing in the tsunami.
    B．All the parents mentioned are worried about their children’ s safety.
    C．Most embassy staff were too busy in their work to answer mobile phone calls.
    D．The parents of the young Israelis don’ t have enough time to contact their kids.
    小题3:The underlined word “insufficient” in Paragraph 6 probably means________.
    A．unsuitable B．not enough C．unnecessary D．irregular
    小题4: It can be inferred that ________.
    A．50 agorot is too little an amount for the ordinary Israelis
    B．as an official in charge, the mother made so many calls

    There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
    People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend(hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing(批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
    Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact(接触) with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
    46. People who are unhappy _______.
    A. always consider things differently from others
    B. usually are affected by the results of certain things
    C. usually misunderstand what others think or say
    D. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things
    47. The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” most nearly means “_______”.
    A. have a good taste with social life            B. make others unhappy
    C. tend so scold others openly                            D. enjoy the pleasure of life
    48. We can conclude from the passage that _______.
    A. we should pity all such unhappy people
    B. such unhappy people are dangerous to social life
    C. people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness
    D. unhappy people can not understand happy persons
    49. If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should _______.
    A. prevent any communication with them
    B. show no respect and politeness to them
    C. persuade them to recognize the bad effects
    D. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes
    50. In this passage, the writer mainly _______.
    A. describes two types of people
    B. laughs at the unhappy people
    C. suggests the unhappy people should get rid of the habits of unhappiness
    D. tells people how to be happy in life
