The label（标签）, Made in China, is one that is becoming increasing common in shopping centers all over the world.

In the United States, shoppers at Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest retailer（零售商）, have a wide selection of products mostly produced in China. The large amount of Chinese imports have created a large selection of goods in other countries as people begin to buy more and more products made in China. These goods are even widely available in other Asian nations, where Chinese-made goods are quite popular. Chinese brand names are also becoming more well-known outside China.

When Chinese Americans visit family and friends in their homeland, gifts from the U.S. are a must. But TVs and fashionable clothes aren't rare any more, and anything 'Made in China' shouldn’t be considered in any case.

"When I decide to visit my family members in China, I will have a big headache. What should I buy for them? They may not all speak English, but everyone in China knows those three words," a Chinese American said. "When they see the label 'Made in China,' they will think, 'Why do you send me this?' "

The development of China has surprised the world with its growth. As a result, the other countries are beginning to try to reduce Chinese goods with the use of taxes（税）and import restrictions. However, the development on the Chinese economy still affects the world in many ways.

28. Around the world, the products made in China are ________ in the shopping malls.

   A. unwelcome         B. expensive        C. popular      D. rare

29. What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “brand” in the second paragraph?

   A. 品牌              B. 明星         C. 生产地       D. 树枝

30. Why do Chinese Americans usually have a headache if they come back to China?

   A. Because their Chinese friends can not speak English.

   B. Because their friends will be unhappy if the gifts are made in China.

   C. Because they should give their friends rare gifts.

   D. Because they should give their friends fashionable gifts.

31. How do other countries try to reduce the Chinese goods in their own countries?

   A. By developing the qualities of their own products.

   B. By telling their shoppers not to buy Chinese goods.

   C. By importing more Chinese goods.

   D. By using taxes and import restrictions.

32. From the passage, we can know that________.

   A. products made in China are more and more popular all over the world

   B. TVs and fashionable clothes are ideal gifts for Chinese people

C. everyone in China can speak English

D. the other governments don’t welcome any Chinese goods

 

C

Born into a farmer’s family, life was not easy when I was a kid. We were so poor that we often did not know where our next meal was coming from. I had to sell cabbages at the marketplace to support my family.

A storyteller once came to the marketplace, and I went to listen to him. My mother was unhappy with me for forgetting my job. But that night, while she was making clothes for us under the weak light of an oil lamp, I couldn't help retelling stories I'd heard that day. She listened impatiently at first, since in her eyes professional（职业的） storytellers were smooth-talking men—nothing good ever came out of their mouths. But slowly she was attracted by my retold stories, and from that day on, she never gave me any task on market days, unspoken agreement to enjoy new stories. As a repayment（回报）for Mother's kindness and a way to show off my memory, I'd retell the stories for her in lively detail. Soon, she wasn't the only member of my audience, which later included my elder sisters, my aunts, even my stubborn grandmother.

I knew she was worried about me. Talkative kids are not well thought of in our village, for they can bring trouble to themselves and to their families when they talk too much. Mother often reminded me not to talk so much, wanting me to be a silent and modest teenager. However, my natural desire（渴望）to talk never went away, and that is what makes my name – Mo Yan, which means ‘no speaking’. This strong wish to talk also improved my ability to express myself, which is important for writers who are also considered as storytellers.

33. Mo Yan lived a/an ________ life when he was young.

A. hard          B. colourful            C. easy         D. rich

34. From the second paragraph, we can learn that ________.

   A. little Mo Yan was interested in selling vegetables

   B. his mother was attracted by the retold story at first

   C. his mother didn’t let him listen to the new stories again

   D. little Mo Yan had quite a good memory

35. Why did his mother dislike the professional storytellers?

   A. Because she thought they never said anything good.

   B. Because she thought they couldn’t make much money.

   C. Because she thought they would affect Mo Yan’s schoolwork.

   D. Because she thought most people didn’t like listening to stories.

36. In Mo Yan’s opinion, a writer should be a ________ child when they were young.

   A. silent            B. modest           C. talkative        D. trouble-making

37. Which is the best title（标题）of the passage?

   A. My Unlucky Childhood              B. A Storyteller’s Childhood

   C. My Kind Grandmother                   D. More talking leads to success

D

Yesterday the police were joined by more than 20 volunteers in the continuing search for the two missing teenagers, Vicky Gray and Tom Hunter, and their guide, Gavin Jones. The police said that they had disappeared during an adventure tour of Cape York Peninsula.

This was the second day of the search and the police were now very worried about the safety of the three missing people.

The police said that the search had covered a wide area, but the rainforest was thick and their work was made harder by the recent rain. Later on Chief Inspector (警官)Roger Fleet said, “The travelers had a radio with them. If they had been in trouble, they would have called us.”

The three travelers left Cooktown very early on Saturday morning in a Toyota car. They took a small dirt road that runs down to the Daintree River, a dangerous river full of crocodiles (鳄鱼). Chief Inspector Roger Fleet said the tourists wouldn’t have got into trouble if they had stayed on the main road.

A photo of Vicky and Tom was found by a policeman under the “Be Careful about crocodiles” sign near the river. Why was the photo left behind? This is just one of the unanswered questions. Other questions are: Why was the Toyota parked and locked at the edge of the rainforest? The police said that the travelers had left a map of the area behind. Why? Why had someone drawn a cross on the place where the car is? Is this a sign? What does it mean? If anyone can give information or has seen these three young people, contact the local police in Cooktown.

38. This article is probably taken from ________

 A. a newspaper      B. a magazine       C. a storybook      D. a guidebook

39. Which word best describes the search of the three missing people?

   A. Helpless             B. Tough            C. Delightful       D. Successful

40. Which of the following things wasn’t found by the police?

   A. A touring map.                           B. A photo of the travelers.

   C. The travelers’ radio.                       D. The travelers’ car

41. All the following questions are unanswered except________.

    A. why they left a photo behind             B. why they came to this area

    C. why their Toyota was parked in the place     D. why a cross was drawn on the map 

42. The article asks people to ________.

   A. join the police in searching for the missing people

   B. tell the police about the travelers’ ages and their appearance

   C. learn the lesson and stop taking adventure tours

   D. provide information about the missing people

It’s a long-awaited day for China. The navy now has its first aircraft carrier(航空母舰), Liaoning.

It’s a unique experience to get to know the life in the carrier. The carrier is just like a small city on the sea. It has all the functions for daily life. There are 4 words to sum up its characters: big, small, much and high. The carrier Liaoning is such a huge one that the total length of the whole corridor（过道）could reach over 20 kilometers. But the living space for the sailors（水手）is quite small. That’s because the carrier is designed for researching purposes, rather than comfortable living. Over 1,000 sailors, both men and women, are living onboard. They are arranged among over 3,000 tiny rooms below the deck. For visitors, it’s so easy to get lost. So the first thing the new sailors have to learn is their way around. The number of female sailors is much less than that of the males, taking about 5 percent of the total. But they play a key role in carrying out some special missions.

Also, you will be surprised by the high level of education of today’s sailors. The captain said that over 90 percent of the sailors are college graduates. Six hold Doctor’s Degrees and 45 have a Master’s. The whole team is young but vigorous. The complex work on the carrier requires high management abilities for the commanders onboard(在船上).

43. Why do we visitors get lost easily inside the carrier?

   A. Because they don’t have a map.     

B. Because the living space is quite small.

   C. Because there are too many corridors for rooms.

   D. Because the corridor inside the carrieris too long.

44. What does the word “high” in Line 6 refer to（指代）？

A. The aircraft carrier is high since it is just like a small city.   

B. Most of the soldiers received good education.

   C. The expense（花费）to run a carrier is high.

   D. The high-level of their training.

45. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A. Liaoningis our country’s first aircraft carrier.  

B. Most of the sailors on the carrier are college graduates.

   C. There are far fewer women sailors than men sailors on the carrier.

   D. It is comfortable for the sailors to live in the carrier.

五、阅读填空(共20 小题；每小题1 分，满分20分)

A)阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后第 62~71小题的空格里填入最恰当的单词或短语，并将答案填写在标号为 62~71 的相应位置上。注意：每个空格只填写1个单词

    Much meaning can be carried, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he notices that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.

    The same in daily life! If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others’ stare（盯着）with you that way. Eyes do speak, right?

    Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite or even rude. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man look at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away from his looking, his purpose is obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.

    However, the normal eye contact for two people during a conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what his friend is speaking, to tell him that he is interested.

    If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to control you, you will feel uncomfortable. We usually find a poor liar（说谎者）looking too long at the victim, because he believes that it is a sign of honest communication to look straight in the eye. Totally wrong!

In fact, continuous eye contact only happens between lovers, who will enjoy looking at each other gently for a long time, to show feelings that words cannot express. Obviously, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the proper situation.

Eyes can speak
In our  62  life	A lot of feeling can be   63   to others with our eyes. There are a lot of facts to prove it. You may not feel very well when you are   64   at more than often. This time it will make you   65   and you will wonder whether there’s something wrong. If not, you’ll be really angry.
When you look too long at the   66   sex	Looking too long at a girl you   67   means you wish to attract her attention. And most of the time, continuous eyes contacting is just for  68   .
When you have a    69   with someone	If a speaker looks at the listeners at  70  , it is a kind of  71  eye contact.
So remember to look at your partner at the right time. If not, it will make others uncomfortable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

B) 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，并将答案填写在标号为 72~81 的相应位置上。

    In a school some trouble was caused by the students, who were naughty（调皮的）and didn’t follow the school rules. They often fought with each other and they didn’t f  72   each other. One day a new teacher came to this school. When he heard that, he came up w  73    agood idea. He told each of his students to b  74    aclear plastic bag and a bag of potatoes to school. For every person they didn’t want to forgive in their lives, they chose a potato, wrote the person’s name on it, and put it in the plastic bag.

Some of their bags were very h   75   . They were then told to carry this bag with them e  76   for one week. They would put it beside their bed at night, on the seat when they s  77   ina car or on a bus, and next to their desk at school. Days of carrying the bags a   78    with them made students get to know what a weight they were carrying in their minds. And they had to pay so much attention to it all the time t   79    they didn’t forget it or leave it in embarrassing places. As time p   80    by, the potatoes went bad and made people feel sick.

Too often we think of tolerance（容忍）as a gift to other people, and it clearly is for ourselves! If we choose to keep our sadness and hatred (仇恨) in our hearts, we will have to carry them around all our lives. After that, the students got on w   81    with each other and didn’t fight any more. Learn to forgive, and you will be happier at the same time.
