    Prepare: Plan ahead and think about what you are going to say. In the words of Mark Twain, it usually takes you more than three weeks to prepare for it.
    Know your subject: Always make sure that you know the subject and have background information at hand for question time.
    Know you audience: Find out who you will be addressing so that you can tailor(适合) your comments accordingly.
    Make a point: Keep your speech short and brief and have a few clear points that you need to convey(传达).
    Practice: Never learn your speech by heart as your speech will become stilted, but do practice it a few times in front of the mirror, your parents or your dog.
    Eye contact: If the thought of looking into a sea of faces scares you, adjust your gaze（注视）regularly at different points in the room to create the same effect.
    First impressions: Your first impression is important when making a public presentation. Find out about dress codes(准则) at the place so that you look your best and, if possible, check the microphone beforehand to ensure you know how to use it.
    Get help: If public presentations are a major part of your life, read up on the art of speech---writing and delivery to improve your skills.

    Most Chinese people these days know what it is like to have an “English teacher”, since almost all pupils study English from their third year. Usually that first English teacher will be a young and lovely lady in primary school. But my first English teacher is no other than my father. Looking back, I can see that, when I was only a little girl, he created an English environment by providing me with flashcards（识字卡），fun English- language toys and even dolls which can sing English songs! My interest in English had certainly been awakened（唤起） when I began to learn English at school. Just imagine, he went a step further and asked me to learn New Concept English by myself! I was confused and even angry. I could not understand why a father could be so strict with his little girl. All the same, he never gave up and he gently insisted that I follow through with his idea. At first, I read stories with tears and I actually hated them because they were too difficult for me. In the end, I came to love the funny stories and, to be honest, my father was always there with a helping hand. I am sure that my English would never have got so far without his support. And that’s why my father is not only my first English teacher but also my lifelong teacher. He is the one who awoke my interest, who gave me confidence and who offered me much needed help.

    A．the girl preferred playing to learning English

    C．the girl is very thankful to her father
    D．the father gave up after knowing his daughter could not understand
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．The girl’s father is her first English teacher.
    B．The girl had been interested in English before going to school.

    阅读理解。从ABCD中选出正确的答案。（每题2分，共40分）
    It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
    The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour a week to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品杂货）, saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
    I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
    People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity（人性） as a whole. And it has influenced（影响） us to be more mindful（注意的，留神的）of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
    小题1:Why was the bike so important to the couple?
    A．They used it for work and daily life.
    B．It was their only possession.
    C．It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
    D．The man's job was bike racing.
    小题2:What does the underlined phrase mean?
    A．go very far to see someone
    B．walk out on foot to greet someone
    C．help someone with one’s best
    D．enjoy the moment with someone
    小题3:We can infer from the text that ________.
    A．the couple worked 60 hours a week
    B．people were busy before Christmas
    C．the stranger brought over the bike
    D．life was hard for the young family
    小题4:How did people get to know the couple's problem?
    A．From a stranger.
    B．From a newspaper.
    C．From TV news.
    D．From radio broadcasts.
    小题5:What do the couple learn from their experience?
    A．Strangers are usually of little help.
    B．One should take care of their bike.
    C．News reports make people famous.
    D．An act of kindness can mean a lot.

    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。
    E
    All areas of the world face a nurses shortage. But the shortage is most severe in developing countries. Many of their nurses move to the more developed nations for better pay, better working conditions and better chances for career development. For example, nearly 2,000 nurses left the Caribbean between 2002 and 2006.
    The Caribbean nations currently have about 1 nurse for every 1,000 people. The ratio(比例) of nurses to population is about 10 times higher in the United States and countries in the European Union(EU). Now, more than 21,000 nurses who trained in the Caribbean are working in the United States, Canada and Britain.
    Gaetan Lafortune is an official of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(O.E.C.D) in Paris. He says the nurses shortage also affects industrialized countries. He says, “There is concern in most O.E.C.D.countries that the number of nurses is too small to meet the demand. And what is more worrying is that their concern is sort of growing.” Mr Lafortune says a large number of nurses are expected to retire within the next 10 years. At the same time, the health care needs of aging populations are expected to grow, intensifying the shortage of nurses.
    Gaetan Lafortune said, “In the U.S., for instance, some researchers have found that there may be a shortage of close to a million nurses by 2020.” The United States is 1 of the 21 countries in the O.C.E.D. Gaetan Lafortune says in the recent years many of the countries increased their efforts to hire foreign nurses. As a result of that, O.E.C.D. countries were mainly exporting their shortage problem to countries that may have an even greater need for these nurses.
    小题1:What will be the main causes of the global nurses shortage in the next 10 years?
    a. The demand for nurses will decrease.                    
    b. Many nurses will be too old to work.
    c. Many rich countries will hire more foreign nurses. 
    d. Nurses are often looked down upon.
    e. Aging populations will increase rapidly
    A．a and bB．b and cC．b and eD．c and d
    小题2:The underlined word “intensify” in para. 3 means “________”.
    A．strengthenB．neglectC．reduceD．cause
    小题3:We know from this text that America and the EU countries ______.
    A．refuse to offer equal pay to foreign nurses
    B．have at least one nurse out of 100 people
    C．don’t like to train nurses of their own countries
    D．have more serious nursing problems than the Caribbean nations
    小题4:What does the text mainly tell us?
    A．Nursing is no longer a worthwhile profession in most countries.
    B．The different attitudes towards nursing in different countries.
    C．Nurses shortage will result in serious consequences.
    D．The health care industry needs more nurses.

    BRITAIN is a popular tourist place. But tours of the country have advantages and disadvantages .
    ADVANTAGES
    Free museums. No charge for good collections of art works
    Pop music. Britain is the only country to rival(与…匹敌)the US on this point.

    　　Poor service. People can dine out on the rudeness they have experienced,” says Professor Tony Seaton, of Luton University’s International Tourism Research Center.
    　　Poor public transport. Trains and buses are promised to defeat tourists who have the most patience, so the over- crowded London tube is inexplicably(难以理解的) popular.
    　　Rain. Still in the number one complaint.
