         Airplanes are polluters. They're as noisy as a rock concert, and send out poisons into the air as well as
    dump millions of pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year. By 2050, emissions (排放)
    from planes are expected to become one of the largest contributors to global warming. 
         That's why researchers at MIT are designing a completely new type of airplane for NASA that will
    enable greener airplanes to take flight before 2050.
         The 180-passenger D"double bubble" series was designed to replace the Boeing 737 class aircraft, the
    most popular jetliner in the world right now. The design is called a "double bubble" because it uses two
    partial cylinders (气缸) placed side by side. Those two cylinders create a wider structure that looks like two
    soap bubbles joined together.
         In today's commercial airplanes, air flows directly into the engines located on the plane's wings. That
    high-speed air flow drags on the plane, and requires more fuel to overcome the design inefficiency.
         MIT's design changes all that. By moving the engines to the plane's tail, they take in slower moving air
    present in the wake of the fuselage (机舱). Less drag means less fuel is needed to get the plane the same
    distance.
         Burning less fuel can help passengers' wallet as well as the environment. The environmental implications
    of saving energy are as just as clear: the fewer emissions that planes spout into the atmosphere, the healthier
    our planet.
         But for passengers, we still have a couple decades to wait before any of these planes make it onto the
    runway. NASA's goal is to make sure the planes that MIT has designed can take off by 2035.
    1. The best feature of the double bubble flight is that _____.
    A. it will make no noise
    B. it will hold more passengers
    C. it is designed to save fuel
    D. it needs no runways to take off
    2. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
    A. Emission from planes are contributing the most to the global warming
    B. Airplanes are very noisy for the environment
    C. MIT's new design will save passengers' money
    D. It's expected that NASA's goal will be realize by the year 2035.
    3. What's the main idea of the text?
    A. Here is Boeing 733's terminal
    B. Researchers are designing greener aircraft
    C. Passengers will enjoy lower prices
    D. Airlines attract passengers with new planes
    4. The passage will come from a ____. 
    A. News report
    B. Science fiction
    C. Travel diary
    D. Business magazine
    1-4: CABA

    在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

    Goldie's Secret

           She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house.'; "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.

           I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given

    her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.

           That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.

           By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her. '

           I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.

    1. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?

         A. Shocked.          B. Sympathetic.    C. Annoyed.      D. Upset.

    2. In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie____________.

         AI felt worried                          B. was angry

         C. ate a little                            D. sat by the fire

    3. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she       .

         A. saw her puppies                      B. heard familiar barkings

         C. wanted to leave the author              D. found her way to her old home

    4. The passage is organized in order of____________.

         A. time             B. effectiveness    C. importance     D. complexity

    第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）
    第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
    A
    I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 76 students who would be my English literature class. Having taught in the US for 17 years, I have no doubt about my ability to hold their attention and to impress on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.
    I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “stand up!” The entire class rose as I entered the room and I was somewhat puzzled about how to get them to sit down again, but once the embarrassment (尴尬) was over, I quickly regained my calmness and admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which came from a strong sense of achievement.
    My students kept diaries. However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually replaced by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. Perhaps her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a similar theme. “Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire Western philosophy (哲学) and laid the historical background for all the works we will study in class.” I complained. “How should they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
    It was a long term, and it gradually became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as those of my students. I thought a teacher’s job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background so that students could draw their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide exact information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!
    However, I also learned a lot, and the experience with my Chinese students has made me a better American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.
    41. We can know that on the first day the writer ______.
    A. felt she didn’t teach them much
    B. was very confident in her students
    C. felt very confident in herself at first
    D. was disappointed at her students’ performance
    42. At the beginning of the lesson, the writer got puzzled because of ______.
    A. cultural differences                        B. students’ admiration
    C. students’ embarrassment                  D. the same experience
    43. The writer learnt from their diaries that the students wanted to ______.
    A. raise interesting questions               B. know about background
    C. draw their own conclusions             D. know more exact facts
    44. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A. The writer got used to the life in China.
    B. The writer doubted about her ability of teaching.
    C. The writer had taught in many western countries.
    D. The writer became better at teaching foreign students.

    The key to happiness is how quickly you can get back your focus on what`s important.
    ——Anonymous
    Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Here`s what happened. I hopped in a taxi，and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when，all of a sudden，a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes，skidded，and missed the other car`s back end by just inches!
    The driver of the other car，who almost caused a big accident，started yelling bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean，he was friendly.  So，I said，"Why did you just do that？This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！"And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck. "
    Many people are like garbage （rubbish）trucks. They run around full of garbage，full of frus-tration， full of anger，and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up，they need a place to dump it. And if you let them，they`ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you，don`t take it personally. You just smile，wave，wish them well，and move on. You`ll be happy with what you did.
    I started thinking，how often do I led Garbage Trucks run right over me？And how often do I　take their garbage and spread it to other people ai work，at home，or on the streets？It was that day
    I said，"I`m not going to do anymore. "
    Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day. What about you？If you let more garbage trucks pass you by，you`ll be happier. Life`s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So，Love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don`t.

    A.The taxi almost hit another car.

    D.He dumped some garbage in front of his car.
    58.What does the taxi driver think of people according to Paragraph 3？
    A.Many people like to drive garbage trucks.
    B.Many people dump garbage wherever they like.
    C.Many people are warm-hearted to make others happy.
    D.Many people tend to be very much depressed.

    B.Try our best to persuade them not to do that again.
    C.Tell them to dump the garbage in the right place.
