You go to a store. You see many new things. You know about them before you get to the store. How do you know? You saw these things on TV. You learned about them through advertising.

People have been advertising for thousands of years. Long ago, men called “criers” walked up and down the street. They shouted about things that were being sold.

Later, people met at one place. This place was a market. Some people came to sell. Other people came to buy. But only those people who were at the market knew what was being sold.

When people learned about printing, things changed. Soon there were newspapers. Many people read the newspapers. They saw many advertisements in the papers. Later, more people saw and listened to the advertisements on TV. Are the people who sell to us “criers”?

Fred liked playing tricks on others. One afternoon he went to a shop and bought some bread. On his way home he saw Johnson, an old man about sixty riding a donkey (驴). The boy walked to the old man and decided to play a trick on him. He thought for a moment and then he had an idea.

“Hello, my friend,” Fred said in a loud voice. “Please come and have a piece of bread.” C. people went to the market

“Thank you very much.” Johnson got off the donkey and said gladly.” “But I have already had lunch.”

“I’m sorry. I’m talking to your donkey, not to you.” Fred said with a smile.

Johnson understood at once that the boy was playing a trick on him. He became angry, but he didn’t show his anger. He just turned quickly to his donkey, held up the lash (鞭子) and hit it on the back.

“Before we set off, I asked if you had fiends in the town. You said again and again that you hadn’t. Can you explain why the young man asked you to have the bread, then?”

The more the old man said, the less he could control his anger. He finally shouted, “I’ll beat you to death if you dare fool me again!”

Hearing this, Fred’s face turned red and he left away quickly.

I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance (保险业) company. I told him honestly why I wanted the job —I needed to keep my family in Boston. My wife recently died of a heart attack (心脏病). A job in Boston would help me reduce some of the extreme trauma (精神创伤) and pain of the loss for my 16-year-old daughter. It was important for me to keep her in her high school. I could still hardly talk about the loss of my wife. Bruce, the interviewer, was politely , but he didn’t probe(彻底调查) any further. He admitted(接受) my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of the interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another person. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he, too, had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had three children. In his sharing, I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had —a pain that was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a beloved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, if I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call. Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. When he had no idea if we would ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of the greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview into a caring support for another person in need.

47. The writer took part in the interview because __________.

A. he had lost his job and wanted to find a new one B. he had to support his family in Boston B. was angry to meet the boy D. thought the boy was talking to him B. liked playing with donkeys D. wasn’t clever

51. What is the best title for the passage?

Going to sleep may seem pretty boring compared with all the fun things you do while you are awake. But there’s a lot going on in your mind and body while you are sleeping.

Sleep, in fact, is as important to your survival as eating and drinking. Sleep improves your mood, makes you a better athlete, and helps you remember and understand what you learned during the day.

During sleep, your temperature drops. Your heart beats slowly. A chemical that controls growth, which is called a hormone(荷尔蒙), moves into your bloodstream. Scientists think that sleep brings back energy and improves your immune(免疫) system. We know what happens while we’re asleep because scientists study volunteers who sleep in laboratories. The sleepers are connected with machines that measure brain waves, eye movements and muscle activities.

Sleep is like a school day: it’s divided into different stages(阶段). When you are awake, your brain waves fire rapidly(迅速地). As you begin to relax and drift into the first stage of sleep, your brain produces slower-moving waves and you lose awareness(意识) of your surroundings. As you fall into deeper sleep, your body repairs itself from the normal wear and tear of daily life. Then, as you begin to drift back up to a lighter sleep, your mind becomes more alert(警觉的), and your dreams begin. You are in REM sleep.

REM is the name for the rapid eye movement that happens while you are dreaming. During REM sleep, your eyes move back and forth behind your lids, as though you were watching a movie. During other stages, you might move in bed, but during REM sleep you’re not making any movement. That’s probably because if you could move, your body would act out your dreams. As you get close to morning, you spend more time in REM than in deep sleep, so you dream more. Researchers know that during REM sleep the part of the brain that deals with learning and thinking is very active.

Getting too little sleep can affect your personality. Experts recommend that children get at least nine hours’ sleep a night.

52. Sleep has many advantages except __________.

A. improving your mood B. making you strong C. helping you study

53. During your sleep, __________.

① your body repairs itself from the normal wear and tear of daily life

② your brain produces slower-moving waves

③ your dream begins

④ you lose awareness of surroundings

Choose the right order:

A. ①③②④

dreams?

A. Light sleep. B. Deep sleep. C. REM sleep. D. The first two stages of sleep.

55. Which of the following is NOT right?

A. During REM sleep, the whole brain is active.

B. You don’t move while you are in REM sleep, dreaming.

C. The closer to morning, the more dreams you have.

D. Hormone has something to do with your growth.

四．根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白出的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 —Lovely day, isn’t it?

—Mm, yes, And it’s supposed to get warmer.

—Yes, that’s true. You know, though, I’m always a little worried to see winter go.

—

—Well, I love skating. In fact, I used to teach skating for a living.

—Oh? That sounds interesting.

—I work at Bank of America. How about you?

—

—Here?

—No, I’m from Chicago. I’m just visiting here for the wedding.

—Oh, I see.

—By the way, I’m Helen Keller.

B. ②④①③ C. ④①③② D. ④③①② 54. Suppose this is the course of your sleep, in which part of the course do you have more D. practising your eyes

六．写作

◆第一节 阅读表达 （共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，并根据要求完成文章后的题目。

How can you get the most from a book when you’re reading for information rather than pleasure? Here are some tips.

_________It is much more important to get a general idea of the book than to understand every detail. In fact, no matter how carefully you read, you won’t remember most of the details anyway. What you can do is to remember and record the main points. If you remember those, you’ll know enough to find the material when you ever do need the details.

Decide how much time you’ll spend. It’s best to plan your time before you start reading. Remember, you’re going to read the whole book. Set a time limit and keep it.

. If you don’t have reasons and strategies(策略) of your own — not just those of your teacher — you’ll learn less than you could.

Read actively. Don’t wait for the author to lead you. From the very beginning, ask yourself questions, such as, “How does the author know that...?” Making notes can be helpful. And as you read, try to answer your questions.

66. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?

Actually, regardless of how carefully you read the book, you can’t possibly remember most of the details. ________________________________________________________________________________________
