When we talk about stars, especially women stars, it seems that they are always young, pretty and own attractive body shapes.

But recen tly a Britain?s Got Talent(英国达人) star Susan Boyle has

changed our views completely.

Simon Cowell, one of the organizers of the talent show spoke of his surprise over Ms Boyle?s voice. “This lady came up, and I?m thinking, …This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea.? That changed when she began to sing I Dreamed a Dream from Lea Miserables. She knew we were going to have that reaction(反应) and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face midway through —it was one of my favorite mome nts,” Cowell said.

The performance was posted online and before long, the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world.

Speaking from her home in Scotland, Ms Boyle said that she hadn?t thought of changing her appearance. She said that her friend helped her with make-up. “I mean, it?s meaningless.” She added.

Ms. Boyle also spoke of the reason she first began to explore her musical talents. “ I was kind of slow at school, so getting something like singing was a good way of hiding behind that and therefore it built my confidence.??

In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours.

The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.

It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.

Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses”came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand?s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.

People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.

32. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ________.

A. want to be as rich as their neighbours

B. want others to know or to think that they are rich

C. don?t want others to know they are rich

D. want to be happy

33. It can be inferred (推断) from the story that rich people like to ________.

A. live outside New York City

B. live in New York City

C. live in apartments

D. have many neighbours

34. Arthur Momand used the name “Jones”in his series of short stories because

“Jones”

is ________.

A. an important name

B. a popular name in the United States

C. his neighbour?s name

D. not a good name

35. If a person who keeps up with the Joneses, he would _________.

A. do as the poor persons around him do

B. do everything he likes to do

C. do as his neighbours do

D. do as the rich people around him do

The Internet, mobile phones and Ipads are part of our lives now. Technology is greatly affecting all ways of our lives, from the ways we work to the ways we play. And it even causes a number of social problems such as cloning humans.

We have had lots of technology and it has changed our lives a lot. There is no doubt that humans will continue to use more and more technology. Here are some examples of modern technology that will change our ideas and will affect our lives greatly.

Global positioning system (GPS) (全球定位系统)

It?s a system that uses radio signals from satellites to show exact(精确地) information. It tells you where the user is on the earth in all weather conditions. It?s made up of three parts: satellites, control equipments (设备) on land and receivers.

Space Technology

Russian and American scientists have worked together for the international Space Station (ISS) for a long time. They hope the ISS will provide a long-lasting lab. Such a lab will bring humans limitless(无限的) advantages. It?s even hoped that one day space technology will take humans to their new houses in space.

Underwater Robot

Hercules is a kind of underwater robot with some high technology equipments. It

will be used to search for ancient ships which were d estroyed into the deep sea during their journey long ago.

The world is changing so quickly that it?s hard for us to catch up with all the new inve ntions because they seem to come out every month. It?s important for us to learn about new technology and the role that it plays in our lives. So we should be willing to accept modern technology, or we will fall behind the times.

Reading is the key to school success and, like any skill, it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking. Educators call it “automaticity(自动性)”.

A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase(短语). With automaticity, he doesn?t have to think about the meaning of words, so he can give all

his attention to the meaning of the text.

It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.

According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount(数量) of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home.

You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, you need more practice.

41. “Reading is the key to school success” means that reading .

A. helps school develop faster

B. is a key to a successful school

C. helps students go to a key school

D. can improve students? learning results

42. Children with “automaticity” can read faster because they .

A. know how to read the words

B. do not have to think while reading

C. read by themselves without any help

D. pay attention to the meaning of the text

43. Rossman tells that any child w ho will possibly be an automatic reader.

A. turns off TV one night 4 weeks

B. reads books by the word quickly

C. spends an hour reading every day

D. gets the same grades as others in exams

44. The underlined word “stumble”in the passage means “” in Chinese.

A. 结结巴巴地读

B. 全神贯注地读

C. 心不在焉地读

D. 声情并茂地读

45. The best title for the passage is “”.

A. IQ Is the Key to the Automaticity

B. TV Is Bad for Children?s Reading

C. Automaticity Depends on Practice

D. Automatic Reads Will Be Successful

A serious problem for today's society is who should be responsible(有责任的) for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible ways to this problem.

First, employers(雇主) should take the responsibility for their retired(退休的) employees. To make this possible, 1% of profits(利润) should be left for this purpose. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage because of higher employee costs.

Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual(个人). This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people find that it?s difficult for them to pay for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.

In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. The government could provide more money through government taxes to increase the level of pensions(养老金). What's more, some institutions(社会福利机构) should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unluckily, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly practical answer. The government doesn?t have enough money to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.

One further solution is that the government or social organizations set up some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.

In short, all these measures have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, we are expecting to combine(结合）these measures so that we can provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.

Title The elderly should be 62 more care of.

Topic Who should be 63 to improve the lives of the elderly?

64 to the problem

★65 should give 1% of profits to their employees, but this may cause a commercial 66 .

★ Some individuals should save during his working years to pay for the years when he is retired, but the others have 67 paying for their daily life.

★More 68 could be provided through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. However, when the government is busy trying to look after the young, it can hardly

69 to care for the elderly.

★Workplaces for the elderly should be 70 by the government or social organizations.

Conclusion (总结）

We are expecting to combine these measures in 71 to provide the care for the elderly

B）根据短文内容和首字母提示，填入所缺单词，并将答案填写在答

题纸标号为72—81的相应位置上。

Betty is not a traditional American beauty. She is unfashionable, has

thick red glasses, untidy hair and large metal braces(牙套) on her teeth.

But this hasn?t stopped her f 72 becoming one of American?s

favorite TV characters. So h 73 did she manage to do it?

The answer is that charm can be m 74 attractive than beauty. Betty is the main character in a TV show “Ugly Betty”. The show is about her life as an office worker at a fashion magazine in New York.

The TV show has just started. Betty has many exciting experiences and romantic stories. Betty is often l 75 down on and laughed at by the people around. But she manages to do better than others w 76 her hard work, charm and wisdom. The show tells us about how a girl goes from an ugly young duck into a beautiful swan.

T 77 you may know the ending of the show from the beginning and the story is familiar to many of us, it has still been a big s 78 in the USA. It has attracted large n 79 of viewers and won two Golden Globes awards, one of the highest honors for a television program in the USA. “I think you can see a bit of Betty in all of us, and I mean men as w 80 , because it?s about the underdog(弱者),”says Ashley Jensen, who plays one of the characters on the show.

The program is so popular because of the performance of the 23-year-old actress America Ferrera who plays the r 81 of Betty. She brings the character alive on

the screen.
