8.The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women.During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the time of a woman's life spent in caring for children.A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties,and would be likely to have seven or eight children,four or five of whom lived till they were five years old.By the time the youngest was fifteen,the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years,during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work.Today women marry older and have fewer children.Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty.Even while she has to take care of children,her work is lightened by modem living conditions.
This important change in women's life-patterns has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position.Even a few years ago most girls took a full-time job after they left schooL However,when they married,they usually left work at once and never returned to it.
Today the school-leaving age is sixteen,many girls stay at school after that age,and though women usually marry older,more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born.Many more afterwards return to full or part-time work.Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage,with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life,and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money,and running the home,according to the abilities and interests of each of them.

24.At what age did most women marry around the year 1890according to the passage?A
A.At about twenty-five.
B.In their early fifties.
C.At the age of fifteen.
D.At any age from fifteen to forty-five.
25.What happened to an ordinary family in about 1900?D
A.The youngest child could live to fifteen.
B.Four or five children died after they were five.
C.Seven or eight children lived to be more than five.
D.Some children died when they were very young.
26.When she was over fifty,a late nineteenth-century motherD.
A.was usually expected to die fairly soon
B.would expect to work until she died
C.would be healthy enough to take up paid jobs
D.was less likely to find a job even if she wanted to
27.What do we know from the passage?A
A.Husbands and wives share equal responsibilities at home.
B.More and more women are looked down upon by husbands.
C.Today women prefer to get married rather than get jobs.
D.A husband plays a greater part in looking after the children.

7.Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in stock,the salesman immediately finds it,and the business of trying it on follows at once.All being well,the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes.
For a man,small problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants.In that case,the saleswoman tries to sell the customer something else."I know this jacket is not the style you want,sir,but would you like to try it for size?It happens to be the colour you mentioned."Few men have patience with this treatment,and the usual response is:"This is the right colour and may be the right size,but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on."
However,a woman in almost every respect does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on need and she is only"having a look around".She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her.She will try on any number of things.Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain.Faced with a roomful of dresses,a woman may easily spend an hour going from one room to another,often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.It is a laborious process,but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

21.The underlined part"sets great store by"in paragraph 3meansC.
A.has much information about                
B.knows nothing about
C.believes in                               
D.has her doubts about
22.What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?A
A.They welcome suggestions from others.
B.They rarely consider buying cheap clothes.
C.They predict what they want to buy.
D.They listen to advice but never take it.
23.What can we learn from the passage?B
A.Men never buy what they need.
B.A man's shopping is often based on need.
C.A woman goes shopping in order to look for cheap things.
D.A woman's shopping is never based on need.

6.以下是学习英语的方法:
A.Practise speaking as often as you can-even speaking to yourself is good practice.Try recording yourself whenever you can.
B.It helps if you can learn with someone else.If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you,it will make you keep working.Decide on the time to meet and set goals for the week.And test each other regularly.
C.Practise improvising (即兴的) ways of getting your meaning across,even if you don't know the exact words or phrases.Think of things you might want to say whenever you have time.An example is the use of tenses.Use facial expressions,hand movements,anything to get your meaning across.
D.Guesswork is important in learning a new language.When listening to recorded material,you aren't expected to understand everything the first round.If you play the same piece several times,you will most probably understand something new each time.Learn to make maximum use of all the clues you can pick up.
E.A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning,but don't try to learn too much vocabulary at once.
F.If you are the person on the bus,street or restaurant asking how you can improve your English,you are on the right track.The only way to improve your speaking is by speaking.Don't worry about a bad accent or forgetting words or not being understood.

4.The Zebra Finch:An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet
The zebra finch,a native of Australia,is a popular domestic pet in the United States.The bird has many attributes (特性) which allow it to be kept at home,though there are also a few negative aspects.The attributes are nest-building,breeding and a lively attitude.The potential negatives are over-breeding and the wildness of the birds.
One of the main attributes of zebra finches is their ability to breed.They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world.Once you have two birds,male and female,you will soon have six,as they breed quite easily and have strong babies,usually four at a time.An added attribute is their ability to build their own nests.You can place branch in their place along with some kind of structure,and they will create a nest on their own.It's very pleasant to see the ways males and females divide some labors and share others,and the babies grow up quickly.Overall,zebra finches are energetic birds,and they can make every place where they live delightful lives.
On the negative side,they will breed and in-breed.Often,in-breeding does little harm and does not cause genetic defects (缺陷),as happens more often in other species.However,no one can tolerate just any population level.One has to either remove their nests altogether,which basically removes their personal living place,or check for eggs regularly once a week (the gestation period is 13days,so even a one-week neglect can lead to births).Eggs can be replaced with false plastic eggs,and this prevents females from laying too many.If they do lay too many,they will die from mineral loss.Since these birds do not tame well,removing eggs can be an unpleasant process of repeatedly invading their personal space.
Overall,it is unfortunate that zebra finches are inexpensive birds due to their high level of breeding.They require considerable care to live happy lives.The best care-takers are true avian fanciers-people who have appropriate space for the nests and enough time to allow them to nest-build and breed without over-breeding.

70.What is the passage mainly about?C
A.Zebra finches over-breed by nature and its consequent ill effects.
B.Only people who love birds can take care of Zebra finches.
C.Domestic zebra finches require a lot of care to live happy lives.
D.Zebra finches never become completely tame.
71.By saying"They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world",the writer means that both rabbits and Zebra finchesA.
A.have good ability to breed  
B.are difficult to be raised
C.live delightful lives    
D.share responsibilities
72.In paragraph 3,the word"gestation"probably meansD.
A.the period when eggs remain fresh
B.the time when finches build up their nest and lay eggs
C.the time required for the parents to create a nest
D.the time required for baby birds to develop and to be born
73.According to the passage,attributes of domestic zebra finches includeB.
A.their rareness and easiness to be tamed
B.their nest-building,sharing of responsibilities and delightful personalities
C.their in-breeding,which does not cause as much genetic harm as in other species
D.the fact that they are from Australia and have difficulty in adapting themselves.

3.The vast jungles of the Amazon rainforest are home to tribes (部落) mostly isolated from the outside world,whose way of life,largely unchanged for hundreds of years,is now increasingly threatened by modern civilization.
Now,scientists discover they can monitor these"uncontacted tribes"using satellites,which would allow inexpensive and safe tracking of these tribes in order to protect them from outside threats.
In order to help preserve these uncontacted Indians,researchers need accurate estimates of their populations.One way to collect this data involves flying over their villages,but such over-flights are both expensive and could fill these native peoples with fear.Another strategy involves meeting individuals on the ground,but among other risks,scientists could accidentally spread disease to members of the tribes.
Instead,scientists investigated whether satellite images could monitor uncontacted tribes.The result was inspiring.They confirmed their locations and measured the sizes of their village,houses and gardens."We can find isolated villages with remote sensing and study them over time."Walker told Live Science."We can ask:Are they growing?Do they move?"
Surprisingly,based on the sizes of the houses and villages,the scientists find the population densities of these isolated villages are about 10times greater,on average,than other villages of native Brazilian peoples.This may be due to the fact that they have to live closer together because they are not as good at clearing the forest,since they lack modern devices like chainsaws and tractors,the researchers said.The tribes may also be afraid of spreading out due to fear of being attacked by outsiders,Walker said.
The researchers now plan to focus on 29more isolated villages to"look at their ecology-that is,distance from rivers and roads-and use this to model where else we can find more isolated villages,"Walker said.

66.Scientists don't want to meet the Indians on the ground due to the fear thatB.
A.they can't get accurate data   
B.they could pass disease to the Indians
C.they will be attacked by the Indians   
D.they will catch disease from the Indians
67.According to the passage,which of the following about the Indian tribes is NOT true?D
A.They lack modern tools to cut forests. 
B.Their life styles remain unchanged.
C.They live closer together for defense. 
D.They are contacting the outside world.
68.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A
A.More isolated tribes are yet to be discovered.
B.Scientists are able to find 29Amazon tribes in total.
C.It's easy for scientists to find isolated villages.
D.More roads should be built for the tribes.
69.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?D
A.The Disappearing of the Ancient Amazon Tribes.
B.Discovery of Indian Tribes in Remote Mountains.
C.The Threatening of Modern Civilization to Tribes.
D.Research of Isolated Tribes with Modern Devices.

After 30 years (25)as a pilot,Captain Peter Elliott got to fly holiday-makers on a Thomas Cook flight from Birmingham,UK,to Tenerife,Spain with his daughter.
Senior First Officer Laura Elliott (26)has been flying/has flown(fly) for six years but has never before got to work with her father."It's my dream to be able to fly with my Dad,"she said.
It had seemed unlikely that the pair would ever co-pilot (27)the same aircraft because Miss Elliott learned to fly on Airbus planes when she joined the company in 2009,and her father flew Boeings.However,after Peter Elliott,59,retrained to fly Airbuses,their dream of flying together came true.
Miss Elliott,30,became interested in flying when (28)inspd(inspire) by her father with a trial flight as her birthday present.Miss Elliott said:"Becoming a pilot was never something I had considered.It was only when my Dad bought me a trial flight for my 18th birthday (29)that I considered following in my Dad's footsteps."
The pair finally sat in the cockpit (驾驶员座舱) together and Mr Elliott made an announcement to passengers (30)that the flight made it a special day for him as he was flying with his daughter.
Miss Elliott recalled the flight,(31)saying(say),"I was initially nervous and he kept asking (32)whether I was nervous or not.It was like going for a driving lesson with him.Thankfully,everything went smoothly and the passengers loved it.If it ever happens again,I will definitely be a lot (33)more relaxed(relaxed)."
