Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)

Section A

Format I

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding ltter on Answer Sheet 1.

Passage One

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the follow ing passage:

It is often claimed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without. We live in a consumer society where there is an enormous demand for commercial products of all kinds. Moreover, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment. Such an increase presumes(意味着) an abundant and cheap energy suppy. Many people believe that nuclear energy provides an inexhaustible (用不完的) and economical source of power and that it is therefore essential for an industrially developing society. There are a number of other advantages in the use of nuclear energy. Firstly, nuclear power,except for accidents, is clean. A further advantage is that a nuclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and administrative staff. The nuclear reactor represents an enormous step in our scientific evolution and, whatever the anti-nuclear group says, it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive sources of fuel. However, opponents of nuclear energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct threat not only to the environment but also to civil liberties.

Furthermore, it is questionable whether ultimately nuclear power is a cheap source of energy. There have,for example, been very costly accidents in America, in Britain and, of course, in Russia. The possbility of increases in the cost of uranium (铀) in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions could price nuclear power out of the market. In the long run, environmentalists argue, nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology (生态) to an extent which could bring about the destruction of the human race, Thus, if we wish to survive, we cannot afford nuclear energy. In spite of the case against nuclear energy outlined above, nuclear energy programs are expanding. Such an expansion assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands. However, it is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue. Having weighed up the arguments on both sides, it seems there are good economic and ecological reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power.

1. According to the passage, what can help solve the social problem of unemployment?

A. Developing science and technology.

B. Increasing the industrial production.

C. Increasing the demand for commercial products.

D. Providing an abundant and cheap energy supply.

2. Which of the fllowing is NOT one of the reasons why some people support the nuclear energy?

A. Nuclear energy cannot be used up and it is clean.

B. Nuclear energy saves money and manpower.

C. Nuclear energy is symbolic of the scientific development.

D. Nuclear energy brings people comfort and convenience.

3. Which of the following statements may the writer agree with?

A. Nuclear energy programs will undoubtedly continue expanding.

B. The demand for commercial products will surely keep growing in any case.

C. Uranium is a good source of energy for economic and ecological reasons.

D. The increasing cost may possibly force nuclear energy to withdraw from the market.

4. The writer mentions the nuclear accidents in America, Britain and Russia to show that

A. if an accident should happen, it would cost a lot of money

B. there will be no uranium to be used in the future

C. nuclear waste is a potential danger to human health

D. nuclear energy will finally destroy the human beings

5. What is the writer s atitude towards nuclear energy?

A. Indifferent.

B. Tolerant.

C. Negative.

D. Supportive.

Passage Two

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

Lloyd Slocum was unemployed for 18 months, but like hundreds of thousands of Americans, he's working part time this holiday shopping season, unloading trucks and stocking shelves for a Bealls store in Port St Lucie,Fla.

“It gives you something to look forward to," says Slocum, 29.

He plans to use cash to buy his father a Christmas present and hopes to move on to a fll-time position with BeallsBurke' 's stores, a Sunbelt chain.

Black Friday, the official start of holiday shopping heat, also kicks off the less celebrated season of the part-time worker. Retailers (零售商) alone are hiring about 500,000 seasonal employees this year, most of whom are part time, according to the National Retail Federation. Retailers' recent shift to opening on Thanksgiving or midnight on Black Friday has intensified the need for part-time workers.

Holiday jobs offer financial and emotional lifeline for many of the nation's jobless. They also point up a troubling reality: A nearrecord number of Americans are working part time throughout the year, even though they would prefer flltime jobs. I's not just because of the rcession (经济衰退) Economists cite a broader, longer-term shift toward part-time work as employers cut expenses and more precisely match stafing with ups and downs of customer demand.

The number of part-timers who really want full-time positions- so-called involuntary part-time employees-has risen from 8.4 million in January to 8.9 million last month, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The total has hung at 8.5 million to 9 million since early 2009- double the prerecession level.

By contrast, the total of unemployed Americans has stayed flat at about 13.9 million this year and is down from about 15 million in late 2009 as employers had added 2 million or so jobs. The gap shows how the nation's official 9% jobless rate doesn't fullyl reflect the efect caused by a half-speed economic recovery.

6. Lloyd Slocum is one of those Americans who

A. volunteer to unload trucks and stock shelves

B.。seek only full time positions with retailers

C，prefer to be paid in cash to checks

D. take part-time holiday jobs

7. The employers offer seasonal jobs for holidays mainly because

A. business is getting slower

B. customer demand grows

C. less-celebrated season ends

D. fll-time positions are flld up

8. In America,“Black Friday" usually marks the beginning of

A.24-hour work shifts

B. Thanksgiving dinner

C. Christmas celebrations

D. a holiday shopping season

9. Why does the writer say“holiday jobs offer financial and emotional lifeline"?

A. They are a steady staff supply for employers.

B. They give hope and support to the jobless.

C. They help cut the expenses for retailers.

D. They point to a troubling reality.

10. The growing number of part-timers indicates that .

A. there is a noticeable shift in atitude toward work

B. the unemployment rate has reached a record high

C. American economy is recovering unsatisfactorily

D. the nation' s oficial jobless rate is not reliable

Passage Three

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the follow ing passage:

We covet(垂涎) their food, their wine and their ability to stay slim while consuming both .. but should we be admiring the French for their parenting skills, as well?

In her very buzzy new book,“Bringing Up Bebe," American mom and Paris resident Pamela Druckerman makes the argument that the French have a leg up on rearing their children.

“There' s something about the way the French parent that makes it less of a grind and more of a pleasure,"writes Druckerman, a former Wall Street Joumal reporter. She cites a 2009 study finding mothers in Ohio think caring for their children is far less pleasant than mothers in Rennes, France.

What exactly do French parents do that's so different from American parents? A few examples:

Teaching kids patience and self- control through delayed gratification: French parents teach their children to wait for what they want from an early age- for a few minutes, usually- instead of immediately giving into kids'demands.

“I'm now convinced that the secret of why French kids rarely whine or collapse into tantrums (发脾气)-or at least do so less than American kids- is that they' ve developed the internal resources to cope with frustration," Druckerman writes.

Sleep training often begins at birth: In France, babies are expected to be seeping through the night by the time they' re four months old. Parents don't ignore their babies' cries but they do pause before responding to them.

“French parents believe it's their job to gently teach babies to sleep well," she writes.“They don't view being up half the night with an eight-month-old as a sign of parental commitment."

They don't give in to guilt over spending time away from their kids: French women believe that “it's unhealthy for mothers and children to spend all their time together. ..Children even babies and toddlers- get to cultivate their inner lives without a mother s constant interference."

11. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that_

A. French people are superior to Americans

B. French food is better than French wine

C. French people are admirable

D. French food is tasty

12. The underlined words "have a leg up”in Paragraph 2 probably means_

A. offer help B. gain advantage C. act fast

D. stand up

13. Druckerman cites the 2009 study in order to show that .

A. French parents are more friendly to their children

B. American parents love their children very much

C. French parents are more sillful

D. American parents enjoy caring for children

14. It can be iferred from the passage that_

A. American parents are more responsible

B. American parents often have to be up half the night

C. French parents often ignore babies' cries

D. French parents feel guilty spending time away from their kids

15. The writer may agree with the fllowing statements except.

A. French moms have more free time

B. French way of parenting is better

C. American kids are easily frustrated

D. a American kids are more independent

Passage Four

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage: :

The U.S. Travel Association confirmed in a survey what many frustrated fliers already know: The No.1 airport headache is passengers who pull too many carry-on bags through security and onto flights.

That number has skyrocketed in recent years- 86 million more bags were carried on in the year than during the same period two years earlier, the Transportation Security Administration estimates.

The reason for the carry-on jump is no mystery: All the major domestic airlines now charge to check (托运)even one bag, generally S25. To save money and time at the baggage claim, passengers carry as much as they can on board, with predictable consequences.

At security checkpoints, these millions of extra bags, many of them densely packed, mean longer lines. Once past security, the fun continues at boarding. On a typical flight, there's a fierce fight for scarce overhead bin space, extending the boarding process. Bags that are stuffed under seats make passengers even more uncomfortable .

There has got to be a better way. In fact, there is. Here' s what a more sensible system would look like:

No fee for the first piece of checked luggage. It would be better if airlines simply raised fares (机票) instead of fees. Limit the carry-on size and charge for large carry-ons. Use termplates(标尺)at the security checkpoints to cut off the monster bags that now often escape airline staff's notice until they 're right at the door of the plane.

Tax the airlines' income from fees the same way that fares are taxed. Currently, the fees are tax free, encouraging airlines to generate income through fees rather than fare increases.

We' re sympathetic to the airline industry's need to make money, but the baggage fees- -previously intended to offset rising fucl costs- -have become an interruption that slows down the security check, ffloads costs onto fliers and makes the boarding process even more unpleasant than it already is.

16. What makes the air travelers most frustrated at the airport?

A. The limited overhead bin space for bags.

B. The number of bags they carry on board.

C. The long line at the baggage claim.

D. The extra fee they have to pay for carry-ons.

17. What is the main cause of increasing number of carry-ons?

A. The fee for the first piece of checked baggage.

B. The tax placed on the fees on the carry-ons.

C. The bitter fight for the overhead bin space.

D. The complicated boarding process.

I 8. What does the author mean by saying“the fiun continues at boarding"?

A. It'sa great pleasure traveling by air.

B. There are even more troubles at boarding.

C. Passengers often feel relieved after passing security.

D. Passengers can relax in comfort once they are on board.

19. What is a predictable advantage to tax luggage fees according to the writer?

A. To offset rising fuel costs.

B. To keep the air fares from rising.

C. To discourage airlines from profiting from fees.

D. To stop oversized bags from passing the security.

20. What is the writer's atitude towards airline industry?

A. Critical

B. Sympathetic

C. Approving

D. Indifferent

Format T

Directions: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed. For questions 21- 25, choose the most suitable one from the list A- G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices,which do not fit into any of the gaps. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet 1.

Food is fuel. You need it for energy. When you don't eat, you lose energy. It's that simple.21)

Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to get your daily recommended nutrients if you don't eat.

The daily nutrients are vital to the healthy functioning of all parts of your body. And although you may not notice when your body is running well, you certainly will notice when it starts to break down. Good daily nutrition is the easiest way to achieve health and best performance.22)

And the things you can't see, including a healthy immune system, are directly related to what you eat as well.23)

As with all sccessful eforts,s planning is the key. If you typically don't have time for lunch, brown bag it and nibble when time allows. Energy bars, fruit, even a simple peanut butter and jelly sandwich provides an adequate supply of nutrients to get you through the afternoon.24)

Skipping midday meals leads to unhealthy binge eating(大吃大喝) in the afternoon and at dinner. Skipping dinner often leads to a similar fate late at night, and sleeping on a full stomach has its own negative impacts.25)

Chop herbs, onions, and vegetables and keep them in your freezer. Prepare sauces, and pre-portion meats. When you're busy, you're more likely to eat if you have something ready to go than if you have to start from scratch (从零开始)

To maintain a healhy eating schedule, routine is the key. Standardized menus may sound boring, but they make a lot of sense, epecially if healthy cating is your goal.

A. When you do cook, cook extra.

B. d Brain function, attentiveness, memory, and moods are all affected by nutrition.

C。Your body needs a constant flow of energy to run smoothly, and eating regularly is crucial to that end.

D. Iftime is your problem, planning is the key.

E. If you enjoy cooking, but are short of time, use your day off to prepare foods ahead of time.

F. When you skip meals, you are more likely to overeat the wrong foods at the next opportunity.

G. But today busy people find they do not always have time for meals.

Section B Short Answer Questions

Directions: In this part there is a short passage followed by five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words.

Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2.

Leading scientists around the world are meeting in Britain to consider a proposal that Could eventually see Greenwich Mean Time become a footnote in history. For more than 120 years GMT has been the international standard for timekeeping, but it is now under threat from a new definition of time itself based not on the rotation of the Earth, but on atomic clocks.

GMT is based on the passage of the Sun over the zero meridian line (子午线) at the Greenwich Observatory in southeast London, and became the world standard for time at a conference in Washington in 1884. France had promoted Paris Mean Time at the same conference. In 1972 it was replaced in name by Universal Coordinated

Time (UTC) but that esentially remained the same as GMT. UTC is based on about 400 atomic clocks at laboratories around the world but then orreeted with "leap seconds" (闰秒) to adjust itself in line with the Earth's rotational speed, which fluctuates.

But the tiny difference between Earth speed and atomic speed have become a problem for GPS, the global positioning systems and mobile phone networks on which the modern world relies.

The meeting in London are looking at the possible efects of abandoning the leap seconds and moving fully to atomic time. That would see atomic time slowly move apart from GMT, by about one minute every 60 to 90 years, or by an hour every 600 years, and there would need to be“leap minutes" a couple of times a century to bring the two in line. British science minister David Willetts has opposed the plan by saying:“We should stick to real time as experienced by humans. Without leap seconds we will lose contact with the reality of Earth's rotation.Eventually our midnight would happen at noon.'

In January, the International Telecommunication Union will meet in Geneva to vote on whether to adopt the new measure, despite protests from Britain.

As I've said many times, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. No gifts. A good meal. Often a four-day weekend. 66) But what I like best about the holiday is that it gives us time to actually pause and think about what we're thankful for. And I have much this past year. A good relationship. (Got married.) Good health. (I have a new knee!) Good times. (A vacation in Argentina.)

Not that I can' t, and don't, take it all for granted on occasion. It took a mongrel dog thousands of miles away to make me aware of 'my good fortune. And she did it with just a wag of her tail.

While in Argentina on vacation, we stayed on a vlla (别墅) outside of Cordoba. Its name: Dos Lunas. It sits at the end of a dit road that seems to never end.67) When we finally pulled onto the villa a dog appeared out of nowhere. eager to greet us before we even got out of the car.

Her name was Branca. She had wandered onto the place a couple of years ago, hungry, homeless, in need of a good bath and a good meal. To their credit, the hosts took her in. 68) And no fool she. she decided to stay. In returm for room and board, she now works as the mascot (吉祥物). A perfect fit for everyone involved.

Branca and I bonded immediately. For four days, she went where I went. 69) She sat under my table at lunch.she ran alongside us as we rode horses up through the hllside. I suspected it didn' t hurt any that I fed her from the table, that I scratched her ear as I sat and read. At night, she slept curled up on a chair, not far from our room.It was her chair. All the guests quickly learned that.

Her tail swept the ground whenever I happened to ask if everything is OK.

70) She was bevond thankful to be right where she was. And so were we.

Happy Thanksgiving.
