阅读下面短文,然后从其后各题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。         Body language makes up 50% of a conversation, whether we mean it to or not. Since people don"t always
say what they mean at work, Robert Phipps, a UK body language expert, tells you how to understand it.
         If someone has the same idea as yours, they"ll often have the same posture (姿势) as yours. But if a
person"s body and feet are turned away from you even though they"re looking at you, it means they"d rather be
moving the way their feet are pointing.
         Most people cross their arms if they have different ideas. So even if someone says they agree with you,
if they then cross their arms they really don"t. So try to find out what"s the matter with them or draw them out
by handing them something to look at or asking them to do something, such as writing something down.
         If you"re training someone, it"s useful to know how their mind works. If a person"s eyes move up and to
the left while you"re talking to them, they think of information actively, if the eyes only move left they think of
sounds, but eyes moving to the right and down shows they learn through their feelings.
        When people are lying, they don"t often use their hands naturally but make a lot of hand-to-face gesture
(手势). Hands or fingers covering the mouth means what they are saying is not true.
         Tilting (倾斜) the head to the side shows and interest in what"s being said. When people drop their heads,
they are showing they don"t agree with you. Using a hand to support (支撑) your head means you"re feeling
tired. 1. It"s important to study body language because _________.[     ]
A. not everything can be talked about to others
B. not everyone can speak the same language
C. sometimes people aren"t going to talk with each other
D. sometimes what we say is different from what we mean 2. Someone"s body turning away means _________.[     ]
答案
1. D      2. A      3. A      4. B

阅读理解。        Sociologists (社会学家), working in western countries, have found that a large number of women
wished they had been born men. The number is said to be as high as 60% in Germany. "Women often wish
they had the same chances as men have, and think it is still men"s world," said Dr James Helen, one of the
sociologists who did the study.
       Many men say that they have more duties than women. A man has to make money to support (养活)
his family and to make the important decision, so it is right for men to be paid more. Some are even against
their wives working at all. When wives go out to work , they say, the home and children can not be taken
good care of. If women take full-time jobs, they won"t be able to do what they are best at doing: making a
nice home and bringing up the children. Some women disagree. They say they want to get out of their
homes and to have freedom (自由) to choose between work and home life. Women have the right of equal
pay and equal chances (平等机会). 
       Anne Harper has a very good job. She also believes in "women"s liberation (解放) ". "I don"t wish I were
a man." she says, and I don"t think many women do. But I do wish people would stop treating (对待) us like
second-class people. At work, for example, we usually do the work that men do but get paid less. There are
still a lot of jobs only to men-usually they are the best ones. If you are a man, you have a much better chance
of living a wonderful life. How many women scientists are there …or engineers? 1. Many men think _______.[     ]
A. women can"t do what men can
B. men have to work much harder than women
C. men can make money more easily than women
D. women"s duty is mainly to do housework at home 2. Some women have different ideas. They say that _______.[     ]

阅读下面材料,根据材料内容从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。The Official Mascots (官方吉祥物) of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games

        Like the Five Olympic Rings from which they draw their color and inspiration (灵感), the Five Friendlies
(福娃)will serve as the Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, carrying a message of friendship,
peace and blessings (祝福)from China to children all over the world.
        The Five Friendlies come from four of China"s most popular animals: the Fish, the Panda, the Tibetan
Antelope (藏羚羊), the Swallow and one from the Olympic Flame (火炬).
        Each of the Friendlies has a name in the traditional way of expressing love for children in China. Beibei is
the Fish, Jingjing is the Panda, Huanhuan is the Olympic Flame, Yingying is the Tibetan Antelope and Nini is the
Swallow.
        When you put their names together: "Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni", they say "Welcome to Beijing", offering a
warm invitation of the Five Friendlies as young children for the Olympic Games.
        The Five Friendlies also stand for the scenery, the dreams and the aspirations (热情)of people from every
part of China. In their origins and their headpieces, you can see the five elements of nature: the sea, the forest,
the fire, the earth and the sky. What"s more, the deep traditional Chinese folk art can be found in all the Five
Friendlies.
        At the heart of their task and through all of their work, the Five Friendlies will try to unite the world in
peace and friendship through the Olympic spirit. In order to help Beijing spread (传播) its theme of 2008 "One
World, One Dream" to every continent, the Five Friendlies show the deep feeling of the Chinese people to reach
out to the world in friendship through the Games. And the Five Friendlies invite every man, woman and child all
over the world to take part in the great celebration of human union in Beijing, China in 2008. 1. How many Friendlies are from Chinese most popular animals?[     ]

阅读短文,根据其内容回答问题。       Started in 1636, Harvard University (哈佛大学) is the oldest of all the colleges and universities in
the United States. Yale Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard.
       In the early years, these schools were nearly the same. Only young men went to college. All the
students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin and Greek. Little was known about
science. And few people know that one kind of school could teach everything that was known about
the world. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers.
       In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later,
lawyers could study in Harvard"s law school. In 1825, besides(除……之外)Latin and Greek, Harvard
began to teach modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began to teach American history.
      As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students
were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them. 
      Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of
smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning. There"s so much to learn that one kind of school
can"t offer all.

阅读材料,然后从各小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。        The English language is different from any other languages. Yet English words do not stay the same. The
language is always changing. We need new words for new inventions and new ideas. Different words come
into use, or older words are used in a new way.
        English can change by borrowing words from other language. "Tomato" was borrowed from Mexico, the
word "coffee" came from Turkey, and "tea"came from China. Now new space and science words are being
borrowed from other countries, too.
        New words are also made by adding two words together. "Postman" and  "grandfather" are words made
up of two parts. Sometimes new words are shorter forms of older words. The word"photo"was made from
photograph by cutting off the front part."Smog"was made by using only the first two and last two letters from
the words "smoke" and "fog".
        The names of people and products can become new words. Our sandwich was named after a man named
"Sandwich". 1. The English language needs new words _____.[     ]
A. to make it more beautiful
B. to make up some stories
C. to keep up with other languages
D. for new inventions and new ideas 2. The passage makes you think that ______.[     ]

阅读下面短文。根据短文内容从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。         For years, children in the industrial areas of Europe and America seldom left their smoky cities to see the
beauties of the countryside. This was not because the woods and fields were always far away, but because they
were too far away from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning and nightfall.
        In 1907, a young German schoolmaster had an idea which changed this state of affairs. He decided to turn
his little schoolhouse into a dormitory for the summer holidays. Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and
cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity of money. The idea was a success. A few
years later, the schoolhouse was much too small to hold the many young people who wanted to stay there. As
a result, a dormitory was set up in an old castle nearby. This was the first Young Hostel.
         Today, young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostels and get to know each other.
When young people arrive at a hostel, they have only to show their card of membership in a hostel organization
in their own country. This card will permit them to use the facilities of hostels all over the world for a very low
price.
         Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or the world will
happen to meet at the same hostel. They may put their food together and prepare a dinner with many kinds of
dishes. Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal, with dances, songs, or short talks followed by a
question period. One can learn a lot of things about other places, just by meeting people who come from those
places. For this reason, a few weeks spent"hostelling"can just be as useful a part of one"s education as classes
in school.
