One evening, sitting at the window sewing, my mother called me, “Come here, ”she said. “36. ”She held my head against her 37, and after a puzzled moment I felt a 38 foot drumming on my cheek. “You see ? ”she said, “It’s alive. You can 39 it, can’t you? ”I accepted it, as I accepted everything, without 40. It was as good a place for the baby to be as any other and I never 41 about why it got in nor how it would finally get out.
A baby would come? I 42 noticed. That there were soon to be 43 of us would not make any difference to me. I had my place, star-like in my small universe. 44, certainly not a baby, could 455 that.
I was 46, however. I soon found that things had 47 a great deal. I had never been the 48. Now I was no longer the youngest.

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
A
We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed －ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming （把……按能力分班）pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not －so－bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills and we find that mixed－ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate to share, and the develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.
56. In the passage the writer’s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching”is ________.
A. critical B. questioning
C. approving D. objective（客观的）

D. prevented from advancing
58. The writer argues that a teacher’s chief concern should be the development of the student’s ____. A. personal qualities and social skills
B. total personality
C. learning ability and communicative skills.
D. intellectual ability
59. Which of the following is not mentioned in the third paragraph?
A. Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with others.
B. Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.
C. Group work provides pupils with the opportunity to learn to be capable organizers.
D. Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activities.
60. The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to _______.

B
There was one shop in the town of Mufulira, which was widely known for its racial discrimination. It was a drugstore. While Europeans were served at the counter, a long line of Africans queued at the window and often not only waskept waiting but also was treated rudely by the shop assistants. One day I was determined to make a public protest (抗议) against this kind of thing, and many of the schoolboys in my class followed me to the store,
I simply went into the shop and asked the manager politely for some medicine. As soon as he saw me standing in the place where only European customers were allowed to stand he shouted at me in a bastard (怪声怪气的) language which is only used by a boss when speaking to his servants. I stood at the counter and politely requested in proper English that I should be served. The manager became angry and said, “Even if you stand there till Christmas, I will never serve you.”
I went to the District Commissioner’s office. Fortunately, he was out, for he was one of the old schools; however, I saw a young District officer who was a friend of mine. He was very concerned to hear my story and told me that all I had to do was come to him personally and he wou1d buy my medicine for me. I protested that that was not good enough. I asked him to accompany me back to the store and to make a protest to the manager. This he did, and I well remember him saying to the manager，“Here is Mr. Kaunda who is a responsible member of the Urban Advisory Council, and you treat him like a common servant.” The manager of the drugstore apologized and said, “If only he had introduced himself and explained who he was, then, of course I should have given him proper service.”
I had to explain once again that he had missed my point. Why should I have to introduce myself every time I went into a store … any more than I should have to buy my medicine by going to a European friend? I want to prove that any man of any color, whatever his position, should have the right to go into any shop and buy what he wanted, After all, the money which I paid across the counter was exactly the same money as was paid by a European customer.
61. The writer was, at the time of the story, ____.
A. a European officer
B. an African servant
C. a drugstore assistant
D. a black school teacher
62. The manager of the drugstore shouted at the writer in dirty words because.
A. he could not speak English in a polite way
B. he thought the writer wouldn’t understand English
C. that was the language he used when speaking to Africans
D. that was the only language he could speak when he was angry
63. In paragraph 3, the underlined sentence “he was one of the old school” means.
A. he stuck to those old racial ideas
B. he graduated from an old white school
C. he was in charge of an old black school
D. he was an old official in the government
64. Why didn’t the writer wait at the window of the drugstore like other Africans?
A. He believed his white friends would help him out.
B. He wanted to fight for equal rights of all black people.
C. He thought he was educated and should be treated differently.
D. He thought, being an important person he should not be kept waiting.
C
“S. H. E. is going to sing at the CCTV annual Spring Festival Evening Party, is that true?” cried out Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl in Shanghai and die-hard (铁杆的) S. H. E. fan.
After checking it on the Internet, Peng quickly phoned friends to spread the news. For fans like her, S. H. E.’s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.
The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of the singers’ English names.
Last week S. H. E. announced they would perform in Las Vegas, US, over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.
At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.
“I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don’t understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show,” said Peng about the Shanghai performance.
It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have made audiences much excited. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.
When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. “We had never met before, and we didn’t talk at all at the beginning,” recalled Ella.
When asked about the secret of their success, she said, “Our average looks and not-so–expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girl next door, your singing sisters.”
“It’s really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols. Nothing but magical,” she said.
65. Why was Peng Weiye, a senior 2 girl, so excited?
A. Peng Weiye will be met by S.H.E.
B. S.H.E. will perform in Las Vegas over Christmas.
C. Her parents bought her a ticket for S.H.E.’s Shanghai show.
D. S.H.E. will perform on the annual CCTV Spring Festival Evening.
66. How did the Taiwanese band get the name?
A. Their fans gave the name to them.
B. Their idols had a deep influence on them.
C. A singing contest gave their idea of the band name.
D. The first letter of each of the singers’ English names forms the band name.
67. What do you know about Peng Weiye?
A. She stayed outside the Hongkou Stadium to listen to S.H.E.’s performance.
B. She will watch the performance in Guangzhou on January 15.
C. She pays close attention to everything about S.H.E..
D. She was grateful that her parents understood her.
68. Which is true about S.H.E.?
A. The secret to their success is their pretty faces and expensive clothes.
B. They were close friends when they entered a singing contest.
C. They caused a storm of excitement in Southeast Asia.
D. They have well prepared to perform with their idols.
D
How to become a better student? Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:
1) Plan your time carefully. When planning your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule (日程表) of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
2) Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate (集中) on the subject.
3) Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4) Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5) Develop a good attitude (态度) about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
69. According the text, a schedule may include _______.
A. a list of things both you have to do and don’t have to do
B. what you have to do every day
C. enough time for entertainment first
D. something will happen unexpectedly
70. A good place for study should be a place where _______.
A. everything needed is at hand
B. a writing desk is in the corner of a room only
C. nothing is there except your study materials
D. it is comfortable to stay
71. “Take advantage of class time” refers to ____.
A. paying attention to what the teacher says carefully
B. making a note of something important
C. doing less homework after class
D. both A and B
72.The last sentence in Tip Five suggests ______.
A. tests are the most necessary part in your study
B. take tests as a friend in need in your study
C. the world will come to an end unless you pass all tests
D. never let tests trouble you too much in your study

Even plants can run a fever, especially when they’re under attack by insects or diseases. But unlike humans, plants can have their temperature taken from3,000 feet away—straight up. Ten years ago, adapting(改造)the infrared scanning(红外线扫描)technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, Physicist Stephen Parley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress, The aim was to let farmers precisely(精 确) target pesticide (杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field ,which surely includes plants that don’t have pest problems.
Even better, Parley’s Remote Scanning Service Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye .Mounted(安装)on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat from the crops .The data (数据)were transformed into a color–coded map showing where plants were running “fever”. Farmers could then spot spray, using50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.
The bad news is that Parley’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-termed backers were hard to find. But with the concern about pesticides on produce once again, and refinements(精确) in infrared scanning, Parley hopes to get back into operation. Agricultural experts have no doubt that the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States,” says George Oerther of Texas A.& M.. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be used by the end of the decade. But only if Parley finds the financial(金融)backing which he failed to get 10 years ago.
73. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to.
A. figure out the damage to the crops
B. draw a color-coded map
C. measure the size of affected area
D. find out the problem area
74. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticides by.
A. applying spot-spraying
B. asking infrared scanning experts for help
C. making good use of the natural rain
D. detecting crop problems at an early date
75. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of.
A .the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce
B. concern about the excessive (过度) use of pesticides on crops
C. the forceful law made by the Department of Agriculture
D. full support from agricultural experts

21. C考查冠词的用法。处于老师的"位置"，是特指；后面泛指"一个"学生。
22. A 考查副词的用法。此题难度较大。首先是句意较难理解，应译成：一个演员没有生活经历就无法扮演好角色，就如一位舞者没有大量实践就无法进行不同的表演。no more than连接两者的时候，表示前后都否定。而no可以相当于not a/any, 这样可以推出not ...any more than结构，于是确定答案为A。
23． Cwhat引导宾语从句，为所……的人（东西）。
24． Aplanned＋to have＋过去分词，表示过去本计划做，但没有成功。
25． Dbe of the age（height，size）表示主语具有某种特征。
26. C
27. D
28. C考查定语从句。先行词point意为“地步”。
29. D考查形容词辨义。payable“可付的，应付的”，respectful“尊重人的”，grateful“感激的”，rewarding“有价值的，有益的”。通过句意分析，应选D。
30. C考查短语动词。lay off sb. “解雇（某人）”， lay down“放弃某事物”, lay sb out“打昏某人”， lay aside “把某物放在一边；放弃”。根据句子语境，应选C。
31. C be similar to意为“与……相似”。
32. D furniture为不可数名词，该句是肯定句。
33. B这是一个强调句式，after the invention of printing为被强调部分。
34. B考查时态。注意上句中的虚拟语气表示与过去事实相反，所以应用过去时，表示过去的情况。
35. A本题测试表穿戴的词语辨析。 dress 后面要接被穿衣服的对象(如 a child, oneself)。表状态。

People are enjoying a richer life
As we can see from the chart, people’s life has changed greatly in these five years. Five years ago, only 13 percent of the families had private cars, but now the number has gone up to 38 percent. In 1999, only 16 percent of the families could afford to buy houses, while now 35 percent of them have their own flats. Now more and more people want to broaden their horizon by going abroad for further education. The number has changed from 11 percent in 1999 to 28 percent. Compared with the number 5 years ago, which was only 20 percent, now more than 50 percent of the families prefer to spend their holidays traveling.
From the large number that people choose to study abroad, we can see that people care more about education. They want to improve the quality of their life by learning more.

We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming （把……按能力分班）pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not －so－bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills and we find that mixed－ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate to share, and the develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.

There was one shop in the town of Mufulira, which was widely known for its racial discrimination. It was a drugstore. While Europeans were served at the counter, a long line of Africans queued at the window and often not only waskept waiting but also was treated rudely by the shop assistants. One day I was determined to make a public protest (抗议) against this kind of thing, and many of the schoolboys in my class followed me to the store,
I simply went into the shop and asked the manager politely for some medicine. As soon as he saw me standing in the place where only European customers were allowed to stand he shouted at me in a bastard (怪声怪气的) language which is only used by a boss when speaking to his servants. I stood at the counter and politely requested in proper English that I should be served. The manager became angry and said, “Even if you stand there till Christmas, I will never serve you.”
I went to the District Commissioner’s office. Fortunately, he was out, for he was one of the old schools; however, I saw a young District officer who was a friend of mine. He was very concerned to hear my story and told me that all I had to do was come to him personally and he wou1d buy my medicine for me. I protested that that was not good enough. I asked him to accompany me back to the store and to make a protest to the manager. This he did, and I well remember him saying to the manager，“Here is Mr. Kaunda who is a responsible member of the Urban Advisory Council, and you treat him like a common servant.” The manager of the drugstore apologized and said, “If only he had introduced himself and explained who he was, then, of course I should have given him proper service.”
I had to explain once again that he had missed my point. Why should I have to introduce myself every time I went into a store … any more than I should have to buy my medicine by going to a European friend? I want to prove that any man of any color, whatever his position, should have the right to go into any shop and buy what he wanted, After all, the money which I paid across the counter was exactly the same money as was paid by a European customer.

“S. H. E. is going to sing at the CCTV annual Spring Festival Evening Party, is that true?” cried out Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl in Shanghai and die-hard (铁杆的) S. H. E. fan.
After checking it on the Internet, Peng quickly phoned friends to spread the news. For fans like her, S. H. E.’s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.
The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of the singers’ English names.
Last week S. H. E. announced they would perform in Las Vegas, US, over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.
At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.
“I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don’t understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show,” said Peng about the Shanghai performance.
It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have made audiences much excited. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.
When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. “We had never met before, and we didn’t talk at all at the beginning,” recalled Ella.
When asked about the secret of their success, she said, “Our average looks and not-so–expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girl next door, your singing sisters.”
“It’s really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols. Nothing but magical,” she said.
65. Why was Peng Weiye, a senior 2 girl, so excited?
A. Peng Weiye will be met by S.H.E.
B. S.H.E. will perform in Las Vegas over Christmas.
C. Her parents bought her a ticket for S.H.E.’s Shanghai show.
D. S.H.E. will perform on the annual CCTV Spring Festival Evening.
66. How did the Taiwanese band get the name?
A. Their fans gave the name to them.
B. Their idols had a deep influence on them.
C. A singing contest gave their idea of the band name.
D. The first letter of each of the singers’ English names forms the band name.
67. What do you know about Peng Weiye?
A. She stayed outside the Hongkou Stadium to listen to S.H.E.’s performance.
B. She will watch the performance in Guangzhou on January 15.
C. She pays close attention to everything about S.H.E..
D. She was grateful that her parents understood her.
68. Which is true about S.H.E.?

C. They caused a storm of excitement in Southeast Asia.
D. They have well prepared to perform with their idols.

How to become a better student? Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:
1) Plan your time carefully. When planning your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule (日程表) of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
2) Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate (集中) on the subject.
3) Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4) Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5) Develop a good attitude (态度) about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
69. According the text, a schedule may include _______.
A. a list of things both you have to do and don’t have to do
B. what you have to do every day
C. enough time for entertainment first
D. something will happen unexpectedly
70. A good place for study should be a place where _______.
A. everything needed is at hand
B. a writing desk is in the corner of a room only
C. nothing is there except your study materials
D. it is comfortable to stay
71. “Take advantage of class time” refers to ____.
A. paying attention to what the teacher says carefully
B. making a note of something important
C. doing less homework after class
D. both A and B
72.The last sentence in Tip Five suggests ______.
A. tests are the most necessary part in your study
B. take tests as a friend in need in your study
C. the world will come to an end unless you pass all tests
D. never let tests trouble you too much in your study

Even plants can run a fever, especially when they’re under attack by insects or diseases. But unlike humans, plants can have their temperature taken from3,000 feet away—straight up. Ten years ago, adapting(改造)the infrared scanning(红外线扫描)technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, Physicist Stephen Parley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress, The aim was to let farmers precisely(精 确) target pesticide (杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field ,which surely includes plants that don’t have pest problems.
Even better, Parley’s Remote Scanning Service Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye .Mounted(安装)on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat from the crops .The data (数据)were transformed into a color–coded map showing where plants were running “fever”. Farmers could then spot spray, using50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.
The bad news is that Parley’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-termed backers were hard to find. But with the concern about pesticides on produce once again, and refinements(精确) in infrared scanning, Parley hopes to get back into operation. Agricultural experts have no doubt that the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States,” says George Oerther of Texas A.& M.. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be used by the end of the decade. But only if Parley finds the financial(金融)backing which he failed to get 10 years ago.
73. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to.
A. figure out the damage to the crops
B. draw a color-coded map
C. measure the size of affected area
D. find out the problem area
74. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticides by.
A. applying spot-spraying
B. asking infrared scanning experts for help
C. making good use of the natural rain
D. detecting crop problems at an early date
75. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of.
A .the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce
B. concern about the excessive (过度) use of pesticides on crops
C. the forceful law made by the Department of Agriculture
D. full support from agricultural experts

21. C考查冠词的用法。处于老师的"位置"，是特指；后面泛指"一个"学生。
22. A 考查副词的用法。此题难度较大。首先是句意较难理解，应译成：一个演员没有生活经历就无法扮演好角色，就如一位舞者没有大量实践就无法进行不同的表演。no more than连接两者的时候，表示前后都否定。而no可以相当于not a/any, 这样可以推出not ...any more than结构，于是确定答案为A。
23． Cwhat引导宾语从句，为所……的人（东西）。
24． Aplanned＋to have＋过去分词，表示过去本计划做，但没有成功。
25． Dbe of the age（height，size）表示主语具有某种特征。
26. C
27. D
28. C考查定语从句。先行词point意为“地步”。
29. D考查形容词辨义。payable“可付的，应付的”，respectful“尊重人的”，grateful“感激的”，rewarding“有价值的，有益的”。通过句意分析，应选D。
30. C考查短语动词。lay off sb. “解雇（某人）”， lay down“放弃某事物”, lay sb out“打昏某人”， lay aside “把某物放在一边；放弃”。根据句子语境，应选C。
31. C be similar to意为“与……相似”。
32. D furniture为不可数名词，该句是肯定句。
33. B这是一个强调句式，after the invention of printing为被强调部分。
34. B考查时态。注意上句中的虚拟语气表示与过去事实相反，所以应用过去时，表示过去的情况。

第一节 书面表达
People are enjoying a richer life
As we can see from the chart, people’s life has changed greatly in these five years. Five years ago, only 13 percent of the families had private cars, but now the number has gone up to 38 percent. In 1999, only 16 percent of the families could afford to buy houses, while now 35 percent of them have their own flats. Now more and more people want to broaden their horizon by going abroad for further education. The number has changed from 11 percent in 1999 to 28 percent. Compared with the number 5 years ago, which was only 20 percent, now more than 50 percent of the families prefer to spend their holidays traveling.
From the large number that people choose to study abroad, we can see that people care more about education. They want to improve the quality of their life by learning more.
