第一节（共15小题；每小题3分，满分45分）

A

What is language for? Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words—the longer the lists，the better. That's wrong. Language is for the exchange （交流）of ideas and information. It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't speak correctly or fluently. They are afraid of making mistakes. One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. As Bernard Shaw once wrote, "Foreigners often speak English too correctly." But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. They're English mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right. People not only make history, they make language. But a people can only make its own language. It can't make another people's language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn't overdo it. They should put communication first.

1．Language is used to ________.

A. practice grammar rules

B. express oneself

C. talk with foreigners only

D. learn lists of words

2. Generally, when an American or an Englishman speaks English, he or she________.

A. never makes mistakes

B. often makes mistakes

C. can't avoid making mistakes

D. always makes mistakes

3．In the passage, t he word “those” underlined refers to ________.

A. languages

B. rules

C. speakers

D. mistakes

4．If too many native speakers break a rule, ________.

A. what they use will become right

B. they are against the law

C. they should say sorry to others

D. they will become heroes

B

Will it matter if you don't have your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had different kinds of breakfasts.

The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit , eggs, bread and milk before going to school , he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class.

The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help them lose weight. This is because they are so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight instead of losing it. You will lose weight if you reduce your other meals.

5. During the test, the people were given __________ .

A. no breakfast at all

B. different breakfasts or sometimes none

C. very rich breakfasts

D. little food for breakfast

6. Scientists wanted to know whether __________.

A. breakfast had any effect on work and studies

B. people were interested in breakfast

C. breakfast did harm to people?s health

D. people would work better without breakfast

7. According to the passage, some people think without breakfast they will __________.

A. lose weight

B. get a good result in their work

C. gain weight

D. not be hungry at all

8. Which of the following sciences is not right?

A. It is bad for your health to have no breakfast.

B. No breakfast and more lunch may make you fatter.

C. The more breakfast you have, the more quickly you will learn in class.

D. If you don't eat much for lunch and supper, you may lose weight

C

"Let's go Dutch, shall we?" Jim said after a dinner to his friends in a restaurant. What does Jim mean?

Long ago, there was a kind of dinner called Dutch treat. At a Dutch treat, the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his or her own share.

There are many other expressions related with "Dutch" in American English. However, most of them were first used in England in the 17th century. At that time, the British and the Dutch were war enemies. So when British people talked about something wrong or bad, they would like to use the word "Dutch ".

A common expression heard a few years ago was in Dutch. A friend may tell you, "You are in Dutch. The teacher is angry with you. Be careful!" When a soldier took Dutch leave, he left the army without permission. Dutch courage is the false courage that a person gets from drinking wine. When someone has just said something you don?t believe is true, you can say “I …m a Dutchman.”

There is one expression that did come from the Dutch. That is to talk like a Dutch uncle. The Dutch were known for the strict and serious way they educated their children.

9.From the passage we can know the Dutch means the people or the language of __.

A. Netherlands

B. Britain

C. England

D. America

10. What did people mean by saying “Let?s go Dutch”?

A. The guests should leave first.

B. The food should be better next time.

C. Each person should pay his or her own bill.

D. People should go to another restaurant.

11. When you hear someone says “I?ve got a date with Cindy.” you may answer like this:

A. Oh, you talk like a Dutch uncle

B. Aha! You are in Dutch

C. Go Dutch with me

D. Oh yeah, and I?m a Dutchman

12. The passage is mainly about __________.

A. language and history

B. some expressions

C. the Dutch and history

D. idioms about Dutch

D

In general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Researchers in psychology think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors.

The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spent time alone often prefer blue.

Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange is a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if people who are working there want time to pass quickly.

Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool. However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool. Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. Because in the north the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.

13. Which of the following colors belong to cool colors?

A. Yellow, green

B. Brown, white

C. Blue, violet

D. Black, blue

14. Which of the following statement is not true?

A. Sociable people like warm colors.

B. People who like to be with others don?t like red.

C. Warm colors can make people excited.

D. Where there are warm colors, People want to be active.

15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. Warm colors remind people of warm days.

B. It shows the reason why people think some colors are warm and others are cool

C. Cool colors remind people of cool days.

D. People have an agreeable opinion of warm colors and cool colors.

Dear John,

Long time no see. I am sorry to hear that you are lonely in your new school. However, I believe you will have a good time in the new future because you are always a popular fellow. As time goes on, everything will b e fine. Don?t be worried. Here are some tips for you.

Firstly, to make friends, you must be friendly to others. Smile at others and you are sure to get a smile in return. Think more of others than of yourself and never judge a person by his appearance and clothes. Secondly, friends should negotiate instead of quarrelling. When you disagree with someone, please discuss with them. Finally, never believe in those who leave you when you are in trouble. And never leave your friend when he is in trouble. Remember, a friend in need is a friend indeed.

I hope you will have a lot of friends like me in your new school. See you soon.

Yours,
