一、阅读理解（共 3 道试题，共 30 分。）V 1.
Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.
Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance—halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.
1). Which of the following statements is NOT true? _
A. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.
B. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country.
C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.

2. “Tear’ em apart!” “Kill the fool!” “Murder the referee(裁判)!”
There are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events. At the time they are made, they may seem innocent enough. But let’s not kid ourselves. They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to real bloodshed. Volumes have been written about the way words affect us. It has been shown that words having certain connotations(含义) may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior. I see the term “opponent” as one of those words. Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms. The dictionary meaning of the term “opponent” is “adversary” “enemy” and “one who opposes your interests”. Thus, when a player meets an opponent, he or she may tend to take every action, no matter how gross it is. I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player‟s request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet enough. The player proceeded to rub his gloves across his wet T—shirt and then exclaimed, “Are they wet enough now?”
In the heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way. I have also witnessed a player reaching to his opponent’s intentional and illegal blocking by deliberately hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play. Off the court, they are good friends. Does that make any sense? It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which departs from normal behavior.Therefore, I believe it is time we elevated(提升) the game to the level where it belongs, thereby setting an example to the rest of the sporting world. Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be an ideal way to start. The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “colleague” “friend” and “companion”. Reflect a moment! You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term “associate” rather than “opponent”.
1). Which of the following statements best expresses the author‟s view?
A. The words people use can influence their behavior.
B. Unpleasant words in sports are often used by foreign athletes.
C. Aggressive behavior in sports can have serious consequences.
D. Unfair judgments by referees will lead to violence on the sports field.
满分：2分
2). Gross actions are taken during games because the players_______.
A. are too eager to win
B. treat their rivals as enemies
C. are usually short—tempered and easily offended
D. cannot afford to be polite in fierce competitions
满分：2分
3). What did the handball player do when he was not allowed a time out to change his gloves?
A. He angrily hit the referee with a ball
B. He wet his gloves by rubbing them across his T—shirt.
C. He claimed that referee was unfair
D. He refused to continue the game
满分：2分
4). What is the meaning of the word “court” (Para. 4)?
A. please where trials are held
B. official residence of a sovereign
C. space marked for sports
D. courtyard
满分：2分
5). The author hopes to have the current situation in sports improved by ______.
A. regulating the relationship between players and referees
B. calling on players to use clean language in the court
C. raising the referee’s sense of responsibility
D. changing the attitude of players on the sports field
满分：2分
3. There are three kinds of goals: short—term, medium—range and long—term goals. Short—term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long—term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short—term goals. Upon completing our short—term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short—term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short—term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase. Long—term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long—term goal to limit us or our course of action.
1). Our long—term goals mean a lot ________.
A. If we cannot reach solid short—term goals
B. If we complete the short—term goals
C. if we have dreams of the future
D. if we put forward some plans
满分：2分
2). New short—term goals are built upon ________.
A. a daily basis
B. your achievement in a week
C. current activities
D. the goals that have been completed
满分：2分
3). When we complete each step of our goals, ________.
A. we will win final success
B. we are overwhelmed
C. we should build up confidence of success
D. we should have strong desire for setting new goals
满分：2分
4). What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Life is a dynamic thing.
B. We should set up long—term goals.
C. Different kinds of goals in life.
D. The limitation of long—term goals.
满分：2分
5). Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage?
A. The long—term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid
B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.
C. Life is a static thing, thus we should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or
D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.

二、阅读理解（共 1 道试题，共 30 分。）V 1. The French word “renaissance” means rebirth. It was first used in 1855 by the historian Jules Michelet in his History of France, and then adopted by historians of culture, by art historians, and eventually by music historians, all of whom applied it to European culture during the 150 years spanning 1450-1600. The concept of rebirth was appropriate to this period of European history because of the renewed interest in ancient Greek and Roman culture that began in Italy and then spread throughout Europe. Scholars and artists of this period wanted to restore the learning and ideals of the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome. To these scholars this meant a return to human. Fulfillment in life became a desirable goal, and expressing the entire range of human emotions and enjoying the pleasures of the senses were no longer frowned on. Artists and writers now turned to religious subject matter and sought to make their works understandable and appealing.
These changes in outlook deeply affected the musical culture of the Renaissance period —how people thought about music as well as the way music was composed and experienced. They could see the architectural monuments, sculptures, plays, and poems that were being rediscovered, but they could not actually hear ancient music —although they could read the writings of classical philosophers, poets, essayists, and music theorists that were becoming available in translation. They learned about the power of ancient music to move the listener and wondered why modern music did not have the same effect. For example, the influential religious leader Bernardino Cirillo expressed disappointment with the music of his time. He urged musicians to follow the example of the sculptors, painters, architects, and scholars who had rediscovered ancient art and literature.The musical Renaissance in Europe was more a general cultural movement and state of mind than a specific set of musical techniques. Furthermore, music changed so rapidly during this century and a half —though at different rates in different countries—that we cannot define a single Renaissance style.
1). Which statement is NOT true about the “Renaissance”?
A.It began from 1450 and came to an end in 1600.
B. It originated in Italy and then spread throughout Europe.
C. People wanted to achieve nothing in life.
