阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
On the snowy Tibet plateau, traditional elements have been mingled with modern life -- youths dressed in the latest fashion dancing "Guozhuang," office-ladies playing conventional Tibetan music while driving to work and Tibetan girls wearing superb folk costume displaying their nice figures.
"I used to go shopping or bar-hopping with my friends after work. But now I don't think it is advisable to continue following that living style," said Pasang, a young Tibetan girl who practices Yoga everyday at a fitness club in the eastern suburbs of Lhasa city.
Today, the conception to live in a healthy way has become more popular in Tibet's general public.
When the night falls, crowds of aged citizens dancing "Guozhuang," a traditional Tibetan group dance, to vigorous folk music can be seen in many residential communities. Among them, Pasang's mother Tseden Wangmo, 63, is undoubtedly one of the enthusiasts in such an outdoor team activity: "I like dancing Guozhuang very much, for it can make my body strong, bring me good mood and carry forward Tibetan ethnic culture as well."
Different from their elder generations, a swarm of teenagers play skateboard or roller-skating shuttle among groups of strollers on the squares in front of the Potala Palace and Norbulingka, the Dalai Lama's permanent residence.
The stylish dress, colored hairs, an earring on a single ear or an obscure tattoo -- all these signals have highlighted Tibet's younger generation's personality and their view on fashion.
Lhakpa Tashi, 16, will become a high-school student in the second half year. This adolescent is a typical fan at various kinds of modern novelties, such as surfing the net, online shopping and foreign Rap music.

Sometimes people call each other “scared-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles (肌肉) get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.
Although the cat doesn’t 36  this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, this animal will do one of the two things. It will 37 itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.
   38 , when people are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies also go through many 39  changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves 40  run.
Human beings, 41  , have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them 42  , we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger, or hit somebody and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told someone you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then 43  later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn’t always 44  to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it’s smarter always to 45  our feelings? No! If you 46  feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays47  . Physical illnesses can develop. It can actually be48  for your health.
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside, don’t just 49  . It’s like you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but 50  you’d smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, you’d  51  little fruit flies hovering (盘旋) all over them. They’d be rotten.
You can try to treat emotions 52  they were bananas in the cupboard. You can 53  they don’t exist, but they’ll still be 54  . And at last you’ll have to 55  them, just like those bananas.

The English are famous for their manners. The phrase, “Manners maketh the man” was coined by Englishman William of Wykeham back in 1324, but they’re just as important today. Books are written on the subject, advice columns in magazines tell people how to behave, and “finishing schools” still exist to ensure that young girls become young “ladies”.
The best example of English manners is in their mastery of the art of forming a queue. It is a popular joke in England (the land of sporting failures) to say, “if only queuing was an Olympic sport, we’d win hands down” No one knows exactly how and when it started, but queuing plays an important role in the English social make-up. School children are taught to queue for roll-call, assembly and lunch, and English people across the land form orderly queues at shops, banks, cinemas and bus-stops every day. The English obviously aren’t the only people who queue, but they seem to do it better than anyone else. As one visitor said, “I have travelled across Europe, the Middle and Far East and nowhere have I seen the single-file queues which are formed in England.”
The English are also famously polite when it comes to language. Whereas many other notions are more direct in their communication, the English prefer a more indirect form of asking for things. For example, an American who wants to talk to a colleague might say, “Got a minute?”; however an English person will often use a more indirect means might of requesting the chat, “Sorry to bother you, but would you possibly have a minute or so to have a quick chat if you don’t mind, please?”
The English also love to apologize for things. When squeezing past someone, people say “sorry”. And they will apologize if you bump into them, “whoops! Sorry! My fault.” In fact, no one seems to say “sorry” as much as the English: “sorry I’m late. /Sorry I forgot to call you last night./I’m sorry you didn’t get the e-mail.” And so on. They also like to use “please” and “thank you” a lot. In a shop, they will say, “I’d like a packet of crisp, please. Thanks.” British students thank their lectures, and bosses often thank their employees for doing their jobs.
小题1: Why does “finishing schools” still exist to help young girls become “ladies”?
A.Because the English mind their manners very much.
B.Because the English parents want to marry their daughters to the royal family.
C.Because the English girls are so rude that they need to be taught to be polite.
D.Because the English government ensures their existence.
小题2:The underlined sentence in paragraph2 implies ________________.
A.The English love the Olympics very much.
B.The English spend nothing winning an Olympic medal.
C.The English are best at queuing.
D.The English prefer to queue with their hands down.
小题3: According to the passage, if Americans say “Waiter! Could I have another fork, please?” how will the English express such a meaning?
A.Excuse me! Give me another fork, please!
B.Excuse me! I have to be a bother, but would you mind awfully changing this fork, please?
C.Hi! Would you mind giving me another fork?
D.Waiter! Come here and change the fork!
小题4:According to the passage, why do the employers often thank their employees for doing their jobs?
A.The employees can bring them a lot of benefits.
B.The employees finish their jobs perfectly.
C.The English employers’ good manners lead them to do so.
D.The employers do it as a result of the company’s regulation.

Most of the news in the newspapers is bad but sometimes there is a story with good news. This is one of those stories. Millions of people around the world suffer from AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and other serious diseases. There are medicines to treat these diseases but for people in poor countries, these medicines are too expensive to buy. When a pharmaceutical(制药的)company produces a new medicine, they receive a special license called a patent. This license means that the new medicine or drug is protected for a period of 20 years. The company that produced the drug can fix the price of the drug and no other company is allowed to produce the same drug or a copy of the drug for 20 years. At the moment, these patents operate all over the world, both in rich countries and in poor countries. The drugs companies say that they need patents so that they can get the money to pay for research to find new drugs and medicines. In rich countries people usually have enough money to pay for these drugs but in poor countries people can’t afford to buy them and cannot treat diseases like AIDS and malaria.
Last month, however, a group of experts published a report which says that patents are very bad for poor countries. The report says that drug companies do not want to find new medicines for diseases of poor people in poor countries. It says that poor countries should be allowed to buy cheap drugs without patents from other countries.
The authors of the report were lawyers, scientists and a senior director from the drug company Pfizer. Of course, the pharmaceuticals industry doesn’t agree with the report, “We need patents so that we can develop new medicines to fight disease both in the developed and developing world,” said a spokesman. But the report is the first sign that there might be a change in the patent system. This change could save millions of lives in the world’s poorest countries. This really is good news.
小题1: Why are medicines expensive for people in poor countries?
A.They are protected by patents.B.They are produced in rich countries.
C.They are imported.D.They can cure the deadly diseases.
小题2: What does the underlined word “patent” in Para1 mean in Chinese?
A.执照B.专利权C.专利品D.商标
小题3:Why do drugs companies need patents?
A.To sell drugs in rich countries.
B.To sell drugs in poor countries.
C.To get money to produce new drugs.
D.To compete with other companies.
小题4: What does the report say?
A.Poor countries should spend more money on drugs.
B.Poor countries shouldn’t obey a pharmaceutical patent.
C.Poor countries should import drugs.
D.Poor countries should be allowed to make copies of drugs.
小题5:What might happen if the patent system is changed?
A.Millions of lives will be saved in poor countries.
B.Drugs companies will stop producing drugs.
C.Drug companies will make more money.
D.The competition will be canceled.

How to make friends with people from a different culture? The rules are as follows:
Appreciate the Person.
Most Americans like to be recognized as individuals as someone special with unique personalities. Therefore, never say, “You’re from America so I want to be your friend.” Also don’t imply that the reason why you approached them is that you wanted someone to practice your English with. That turns people off. Instead try saying,” You seem like a real nice and interesting person and I would like to get to know you better.” This way, they are much more inclined to be friendly because you see them as a three dimensional person and appreciate them for who they are in the inside. And by doing so, you not only learn about Americans and practice your English, but also gain a real friend in the process.
Quit Calling Us Foreigners.
Please avoid calling a foreigner a foreigner especially in his face. The word makes people feel like an outsider, and even unwelcome, suggesting separation and insurmountable differences, widening an already existing gap in the situation. When Americans travel, they rarely say, “ I’m foreign to your place.” They tend to say, “ I’m new in town. I’m new here.” The reason is because new and unfamiliar things can become old and familiar. But can foreign things become native? Aha? You catch my drift.
Just Do It.
Some students like to be told about American culture but are less interested in spending the time and the effort to actually experience it. As Americans always say, “ Get your hands dirty.” You should have first hand and hands on experience, or you’ll never really know anything.
Find that Common Language.
Now I must stress the importance of finding a common language. By that I don’t mean English, Chinese, German, French, etc. I mean finding something you have in common with another person on a spiritual and philosophical level: likes, dislikes, worldviews, ways of thinking , and attitudes toward life. And to start, you must first enhance your knowledge of the particular culture from which your potential new friend comes form.
小题1:The underlined sentence “ Get your hands dirty” means    .
A.get involvedB.start with dirty work
C.talk about American cultureD.don’t wash your hands too often
小题2: Americans prefer to make friends with those who    .
A.avoid talking about their homeland
B.recognize their personalities
C.obey rules of communicating with friends
D.needn’t practice English while playing together
小题3:According to the passage, which of the following is friendly?
A.I am longing to make friends with an American.
B.This is my friend Tom, who is a foreigner.
C.There must be a gap between us in many things.
D.You’ve got a great personality.

Tuvalu, north of Fiji, is a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean.
Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu's nine little islands is more than five metres above sea level. Salt water is already entering the country's drinking water supply, as well as damaging plants that produce fruit and vegetable.It fears it will be swallowed up by the sea. Without urgent help, the country's days are numbered.
But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea. Venice, a historic city in Italy best known for its canals, has sunk about 24cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will have sunk another 20-50cm by 2050. A century ago, St. Mark's Square, the lowest point in the city, flooded about nine times a year. Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times.
While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, Tuvalu's rising sea level is caused by global warming.
The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degree over the past century; scientists expect it to rise by an extra 1-3 degrees over the next 100 years.
Warmer weather makes glaciers melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures also make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has risen about 10-25cm in the last 100 years.
People have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2, through burning coal, oil and gas. This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer.
Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there will be huge climate changes. The sea level could rise by one metre this century.
Should this come true, millions of homes would be swallowed up by the sea and the world will be flooded with "climate refugees" looking for somewhere else to live.
小题1: We can infer from Paragraph 2 that ______.
A.Tuvalu is in danger of being swallowed up by the sea
B.all Tuvalu’s islands are about five meters above the sea level
C.drinking water in Tuvalu has been destroyed
D.Tuvalu is often flooded by storms and waves
小题2:The author uses Tuvalu and Venice as examples in order to explain ______.
A.they are the first places sinking into the sea
B.they are both sinking into the mud where they stand
C.they will disappear in the future
D.their trouble is caused by global warming
小题3: What does the underlined word “refugees” mean?
A.People forced away from their homeland.
B.Sudden changes caused by world climate.
C.Animals whose lives are closely connected with weather.
D.Bad effect of climate changes.
小题4: Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A.The main cause of global warming is human pollution.
B.The average global temperature has risen by 1-3 centigrade degrees over the past 100 years.
C.The warmer temperature causes the sea level to rise.
D.There will be huge climate changes unless the warming is stopped.
小题5:According to the passage, the root cause of global warming is _______.
A.the burning of coal, oil and gasB.the position change of the solar system
C.human pollutionD.carbon dioxide emission

Eat to Excel
How fit are you? Do you look after yourself? Do you eat healthily or do you eat anything you like? Premier League football club Aston Villa are encouraging their players and local children to eat healthy food. They know that what you eat is the key to success.
How fit is a footballer?
Could you run ten kilometers in 90 minutes? A professional footballer can. Footballers have to be strong, quick, skillful and creative in their moves. Every Premier League club makes sure it has a good coaching scheme and a well-planned fitness program. They also ensure that players have the practice and training that will prepare them for matches. What else do you think clubs pay special attention to? A good stadium? Anything else? What about the food they eat?
Eating the right thing
A good diet is a fundamental part of sport these days. Aston Villa manager Martin O’Neill’s sport and health experts have chosen a secret weapon --- organic food (food grown without chemicals). Fitness manager Jim Henry eats with his players and said: “I chose to switch to organic food for Aston Villa because I’ve read studies showing that organic food has higher levels of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.” He believes that the best way to get these is to eat the very best fresh food.
What to eat after the match
Head chef at Aston Villa, lan Edge, feeds players with the best food as soon as they finish an away match. He says: “Food is very important to sports stars and particularly after a game. There is an hour of opportunity when they need to eat to get the best muscle strength, so I hand out meals on the coach on the way home. If we can make one per cent difference to the players by using organic food, then it is worth it.”
Teaching healthy eating
Everyone at Aston Villa enjoys organic food at their training ground. But the club is also worried about the unhealthy diet among local children who prefer sweets and unhealthy fast food. As part of their work in the community, Aston Villa has opened up their kitchen and invited children from local schools to come and learn how to cook with the help of the Villa head chef. Villa midfielder, Nigel ReoCoker, visited the children on the opening day. “The kitchen promotes healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle.” he said.
A final word from the kitchen
Head chef Ian says: “Footballers know how important food is to their profession and nine times out of ten, they go for the healthiest option.” Do you watch your diet? If you do and you keep yourself fit, you can be a winner!
小题1:Every Premier League Club provides footballers with ______________.
A.a good coach
B.a fitness center
C.proper practice and training
D.a delicious diet
小题2:According to Jim Henry, ___________________.
A.he believes the studies he has read about organic food
B.he will only eat organic food with his players
C.he thinks food is especially important after a game
D.he chose organic food as a secret weapon for footballers
小题3:We can learn from the passage that ___________________.
A.people can make one percent difference to players by using organic food
B.only a few footballers pay attention to the healthy eating
C.footballers in Aston Villa usually eat on their way to the match
D.footballers in Aston Villa usually eat some food within an hour after a match.
小题4:Why has Aston Villa invited children from local schools?
A.Because they want to teach kids how to cook delicious food.
B.Because they want to teach kids to play football.
C.Because they are fond of the kids in the community.
D.Because they intend to promote healthy eating.
