    There’re five people at our table, including myself. I’ve already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we’ve been at sea, although we rarely meet except at meal times.
    First of all, there’s Dr Stone. He’s a man of about sixty five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quiet country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the army and visited many countries. He’s told us a lot about the city to which we are going.
    Then there’s “Grandmother”. I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks rather young, not more than fifty, she’s on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen.
    Then there’s a man I don’t care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore.
    The other person who sits at our table is Mrs. Hunt. I’ve found out hardly anything about her. She’s extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult（咨询）the doctor about children’s various illness. She’s on her way to join her husband in India.
    64. What can we know about Mr. Stone?
    A. He is a doctor in the army now.
    B. He is going to give up his work.
    C. He knows a lot about the city the author is going to.
    D. He has been retired for many years.
    65. The writer calls the second person “Grandmother” because_______.
    A. she looks old                             B. She has three daughters
    C. he respects her                                D. he can’t think of her name
    66. Which of the following is TRUE?
    A. Dr Stone lives in a quiet village now.       B. “Grandmother” is an Australian.
    C. Barlow works in Singapore                      D. Mrs Hunt is a woman of many words.

    C
    A blow-fly was looking for an ideal place like rotting meat to lay her eggs so that when her little babies were born, they could feed on the meat.
    As she turned a corner in the grassland, she smelt something that smells like rotten meat in the air! With a great joy she landed on it and laid her eggs. She was happy that her children would have enough food to eat.
    But the fly did not know she had made a great mistake. What she had sat upon was not meat but a flower, which smells badly. It is called a carrion flower. So, when the blow-fly’s eggs hatched and the little maggots（蛆）came out, they had nothing to eat. They died of starvation.
    The carrion flower is one of the many flowers which send out dirty smells to attract flies. The Rafflesia stinks like rotting meat, while the tropical Lords and Ladies flower gives out a smell like rotting fish.
    They do it for a special reason. These plants cannot move from their place. But it is important for the male cell of one plant to get in touch with the female cell of another plant. Once that is done, the seed of the plant will bloom and give birth to another plant.
    The plant uses its stink to attract flies. As soon as the blow-fly sits on the follower, it is captured by the flower with strong hair. When the hair falls, the fly is free to fly- but it takes some pollen（花粉） with it. And goes and sits on another plant. The male cell of one plant meets the female cell of the other. The seed gets new life.
    64. Why did the fly land on something smelly?
    A. She was too careless before her bearing.       B. She liked the particular smell very much
    C. She hoped to find some food for her babies.    D. She couldn’t find a better place for delivery.
    65. The little maggots finally died because_________.
    A. they were born too weak             B. they lacked food available
    C. carrion flower were poisonous         D. their mother didn’t take care of them
    66. Flowers like carrion flower and Rafflesia naturally smell terrible so that_________.
    A. they need insects to spread their pollen     B. they succeed in producing more seeds
    C. their seeds can be carried to other places    D. they can manage to absorb more nutrients
    67. What is the best title of the text?
    A. Dirty Tricks        B. Smelly Plants   C. A strange Flower   D. Secrets of Nature.

    C
    We all know that certain oils are healthier than others. but your oil health goes beyond just the type．The health of your oil can be related to how you use it too．
    Each type of oil has what is called a“smoke point. ”The smoke point is the  specific temperature at which the oil starts to break down, or in more technical terms, its molecular structure begins to change. These molecular changes result in； changes in flavor, as well as W  changes in nutritional value，specifically，the nutritional value of the oil starts to reduce；changing what once may have been considered an especially healthy oil，like Olive，into one that is unhealthy．
    The higher an oil’s smoke point is，the higher the temperature of the oil can be．As a result, each type of oil should be used for the cooking method that is most appropriate to its individual smoke point and heat tolerance. Here is a quick guide for the next time you reach for your favorite oil．
    Heat During Cooking
    		Oil
    		Best Use
    Low to Moderate
    		Coconut
    		Baking (low heat ) Light Sauteing Pressure Cooking Salads
    Corn
    Olive
    Peanut
    Sesame
    Walnut
    Medium Heat
    		Macadamia Nut
    		Baking
    Sauteing
    Stir-Frying
    Safflower
    High Heat
    		Grape-seed
    		Deep Browning
    Deep-Frying
    Sunflower
    Soybean/Soy
    Note that the above table represents oils that are refined(精炼的)．Most oils we buy are refined．Refined oils tend to have much higher smoke points than when they are unrefined．They also differ in nutrition and flavor．Unrefined oils are more nutritious and they tend to be much richer in flavor．
    When it comes to extremely high heat cooking，always choose oils which are refined．
    62．What determines whether an oil is healthy or not?
    A．Whether it’s refined or not．      B．Its smoke point．
    C．Its molecular．                                               D．How you use it．
    63．Which of the following might be a better choice to make a healthy salad?
    A．Refined walnut oil．                                B．Safflower oil．
    C．Unrefined olive oil．                                      D．Sunflower oil．
    64．Healthy oil can become unhealthy if． according to the passage．
    A．you keep it for too long         B．it is heated well beyond its smoke point
    C．it is refined                D．its flavor is changed
    65．The author wants to tell readers that               ．
    A．oils are related to health  
    B．oils’ value depends on their smoke points
    C．“certain oils are healthier ”is relative
    D．oils’ flavor and nutrition are connected

    C
    Not even Dan Brown and his Da Vinci code—breakers(密码破译者)dared deal with the mystery of Mona Lisa，s smile．But Nicu Sebe，a computer expert the University of Amsterdam，the Netherlands，did．He used’emotion recognition’software to process the famous painting and found Mona Lisa happy(83 per cent)and slightly disgusted(厌烦的)(9 per cent)．
    Faces show emotions. Psychology，computer science，and engineering researchers are joining forces to teach machines to read expressions．If they succeed，your computer may one day“read”your mood．Machines equipped with emotional skills could also be used in teaching，gaming，mind－reading，etc.
    “Mind Reader”，a system developed by Rosalind Picard at MIT(the Massachusetts Institute of Tech’nology)in the US, uses input from a video camera to do real—time analysis of facial expressions. It reports on whether you seem“interested”or“agreeable”or if you’re“confused”．The system can help people recognize others’emotions．Picard says this means we could teach a machine to be as sensitive as a human．In fact，a machine can be even smarter than people since it can tell if a person is lying or just“performing”by analyzing one’s facial movements．
    Jeffrey Cohn，a psychologist at the University of Pittsburgh，uses the Facial Action Coding System to recognize human emotions．The system sorts more than 40 action units(AUs)of the face to tell people’s real emotions．He studied a videotape of a criminal who said to be sad about the murder of several family members and tried to pin the blame on someone else．But Cohn saw no real sadness in the woman’s face.
    Sadness is a group of AUs that is difficult to do at the same time．You have to pull down the woman’s of your lips while bringing your eyebrows together and raising them．What the woman did was raise her cheeks to make a lip cud(撇嘴)。Her brows stayed smooth．
    64．The best title of this passage is“ ________ ”．
    A．The emotion on your face                    B．Look at your face
    C．Your face tells a story                          D．Telling a lie
    65．The missing sentence“This means，even though your mouth lice，your face doesn’t，and the machine will know it all. ”should be put at the end of ___________．
    A．Paragraph 2   B．Paragraph 3      C．Paragraph 4     D．Paragraph 5
    66．How many facial emotion analyses are mentioned in this passage?
    A．Four．               B．Three．              C．Two．         D．One
    67．The underlined word“it”refers to________．
    A．MIT                                 B．the video camera
    C．one’s face emotion            D．the real—time analysis

    第二部分：阅读理解（每小题2 分，满分30分）
    第一节: 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项
    A
    Books which give instructions on how to do things are very popular in the United States today. Thousands of these “How to” books are available; in fact, there are about four thousand books with titles that begin with the words “How to”. One book may tell you how to earn more money, another may tell you how to save or spend it, and another may explain how to give your money away.  Many “How to” books give advice on careers (职业). They tell you how to choose a career and how to succeed at it. If you fail, however, you can buy a book called “How to Turn Failure into Success”. If you would like to become very rich, you can buy the book “How to Make a Million”. If you never make any money at all, you may need a book called “How to Live on Nothing?”. One of the most popular types of books is one that helps you with personal problems. If you want to have a better love of life, you can read “How to Succeed at Love Every Minute of Your Life.?”. If you are tired of books on happiness, you may prefer a book called “How to Make Yourself miserable?”.
    Many of these books help people use their time better. Some people want books which will give them useful information about sports, hobbies, and travel. Other people use their free time to make repairs and improvements on their homes. They prefer books which give step by step instruction on how to repair things like plumbing (卫生管道工程) and electrical wiring, or on how to redecorate (重新装饰) or enlarge a house.
    Why have “How to” books become so popular? Probably because life has become so complex. Today people have far more free time to use, more choices to make, and more problems to solve. “How to” books help people deal with modern life. 
    51. These “How to” books are written to______.
    A. tell people on how to love their daily life             
    B. earn money for the companies to survive in the competition

    D
    Can it be true that Australian men spend more time during the week brushing their teeth than they do alone with their children?
    A new study from the University of New South Wales has discovered that during the working week, Aussie fathers only spend an average of just over a minute each day alone with their children．Australian mothers, on the other hand, spend three hours a week looking after their children — a much
    greater disparity （悬殊） than in other countries like America, Denmark, Italy and France, where couples divide the child-care more evenly．
    These findings will upset those who want to shake off the perhaps unfair image of Australia as a land of old-fashioned male chauvinism （大男子主义）．
    According to the study, Australian fathers appear to like the fun aspects of parenthood, but shy away from the drudgery．So while they tend to be happy taking the kids to the park or to sports events, they are unlikely to participate regularly in feeding, bathing, or taking the kids to school．In short, parenting is seen as a woman's job and a man's hobby in Australia．
    Many people believe that in Europe the last twenty years have seen the arrival of the so-called "new man" — the man who is willing to share the housework and child-care．The "new man" never misses his children's school plays and he always gets home in time to read their bedtime story．Indeed, a questionnaire conducted in the UK indicated that almost 70 of British women thought that men were as good at raising children as women．
    That's something for Aussie men to think about while they are brushing their teeth!
    68．The underlined word "drudgery" refers to ______．                                 
    A．enjoyable activity      B．easy job    C．social responsibility  D．boring work
    69．In Australian parenting, ______．                                               
    A．both fathers and mothers take it as a hobby                                                    
    B．neither fathers nor mothers spend enough time on child-care                                      
    C．parents don't share the same amount of child-care                                             
    D．fathers don't like the kids at all
    70．The passage says that the "new man" would ______．                               
    A．go home right after work          B．spend more time on their work                            
    C．read stories to their children    D．do all the housework
    71．According to the passage, Australian fathers should                                 
    A．spend more time with their kids    B．know more about their family                           
    C．learn from their wives         D．stay at home longer
