Land shortage is really a big problem. It is, therefore, impossible to build low-cost houses. Most of these flats built by the government are high rise flats, some rising to more than twenty storeys. Slums in the urban areas have been cleared and some of these lots have been taken up by the Housing Board to build flats.Who are the people who live in these flats? They are mainly people of middle and lower income groups who cannot afford to buy private houses. The only way for the government is to build flats and sell or rent them out at reduced prices in order to solve their problem.Generally the area where flats are built is well served by shops, playgrounds, shopping centers and schools. People do not have to travel far for their daily needs. Bus services run right through some of the housing areas and they provide an efficient means of transportation.56. The government’s aim is ________.A. to provide free flats for poorer peopleB. to build more low-cost housesC. to build houses and flats for the higher income groupD. to make good use of land which is limited to provide flats for the lower income group 57．Multi storey flats are preferred _________.A. because land is suitable for building tall flatsB. because they sell at better pricesC. because people prefer living in tall flatsD. because they make good use of land which is limited58 Most of these flats are _______.A. within city limitsB. near industrial areasC. on the suburbs of the cityD. inside the business districts59.

By May 5, the Palestinian had accepted the plan, but Israel（以色列）still wanted major changes to be made.The fighting between the two states began in September 2000. Israel and Palestine have fought against each other since Israel created its own states in 1948. When Israel won the 1967 war, it gained control of East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza. Since then, the Palestinians have demanded these three areas be part of their state.Mahmoud Abbas became Palestine’s new prime minister after Palestinian leader Yasir Arafat was forced to agree to share his power.The plan was written last December by the US, the United Nations, the European Union, and Russia. It included three steps.●The first step is to stop the violence（暴力）on both sides.●The second step calls for an international conference that draws up the creation of aPalestinian state.●The final step aims for a lasting agreement between Israel and Palestine, and the support ofneighboring Arab states.The Palestinians say that the two sides should be taking steps at the same time.But Israel demands the first step must be an end to Palestinian violence.In the face of such disagreement, many analysts don’t believe the plan can ensure a peaceful future in the Middle East.61. The text is mainly about _______.A.the fighting between Israel and PalestineB.the long road for Israel and Palestine to achieve peaceC. a new chance and plan for peace in the Middle EastD.international efforts to bring peace to the Middle East62. What is the root of the conflicts（冲突）between Israel and Palestine？A.Different beliefs Israel and Palestinians have.B.The land Israelis live on today once belonged to Palestinians.C.The founding of Israel.D.Disagreement on how to bring about peace.63. Which of the following is NOT true?A.Israel and Palestine haven’t taken steps to work for peace at the same time.B. A new leader in Palestine has brought new hope.C.The “ road map” will settle the disagreement between Israel and Palestine.D.Israel and Palestine have different views about the new plan.64. Which side do you think the writer is on?A. Israel’sB. Palestine’sC. Analysts’D. None of them(C)The people in the room were tense. Five young engineers were sitting with their boss. They were trying to settle something about where to set up an important new plant.Suddenly one of the young engineers said what he thought was a good way of dealing with the problem. What he had to say met with an uncomfortable silence. The boss then laughingly pointed out that the same suggestion had been made and rejected some minutes before.The incident seemed funny at the time. But several months later it didn’t. After the work had been successfully finished, most of the engineers who had worked on it were promoted. But the young man who had made a fool of himself at the meeting was passed over.What had happened? The young engineer was sure that he had never heard the suggestion made and rejected. He was right. He was a victim of a bad listening habit that he didn’t know he had. Bad listening habits can hurt you a lot in your daily living. Much of your success, both in your work and social life, is related to how you listen. A number of major industries and more than twenty leading colleges have become very concerned about our bad listening habits. They have set up listening clinics and courses to find out what is wrong----and what to do about it.65. What does the word “rejected” in the second paragraph mean?A. Passed throughB. Passed awayC. RefusedD. Delayed66. Which of the following is NOT the young man’s attitude（态度）towards the trouble that happened to him?A.He wanted to improved his listening habit.B.He didn’t realize that he had a bad listening habit.C.He thought what he had done was right.D.He thought nobody had made the same suggestion as he did.67. The purpose of the text is to show that ________.A.the young man didn’t accept suggestions made by othersB.much of your success is related to how well you listenC.much of your success is related to how well you listen to your bossD.the young man’s insistence on his own ideas led to his failure68. From the text we can get the conclusion（结论）that_______.A.the young man’s boss was not a good leaderB.the boss didn’t like the young man from the very beginningC.it was all because of the young man’s bad listening habit that he failed to be promotedD.the young man made the same suggestion as had already been accepted(D)Dancing that Tells a Story-balletThere are different ways of telling a story. It can be told in words. It can be told in pictures. It can be told in music. It can be acted out. Or it can be told by still another way---- by dancing. Dancing that tells a story is called a ballet.The dancing in a ballet is done to music, but the story is told by the movements of the dancers. There is no singing or speaking.The dancers in the picture are telling the story of Sleeping Beauty. The music for this famous ballet was written by the Russian composer Tschaikowsky. The movements of its dancers were worked out by the French ballet master Petipa.A ballet is a work (of art) just a beautiful picture is. The person who plans a ballet is an artist. So is each dancer.Sometimes ballet is called toe dancing. It is true that in some ballets the dancers do dance on their toes. But a great deal of the dancing in ballets is not toe dancing. Toe dancing is used to give the idea of lightness and airiness. It is never put into a ballet unless it fits the story.Back in the days of ancient Greece and Rome there were dances that told stories of the gods. Even longer ago in Egypt there were dances that told stories of the planets. But the ballet of today had its beginnings about 600 years ago. It began as a kind of entertainment in the courts of the rulers of Italy. Two hundred years later ballet was popular in the French court. The French king Louis XIV founded a ballet school.On a ballet program today there are often some French words. The names of many ballets are French. But there may be other French words, too. A part of a ballet that is danced by just two people is called a pas de deux. Such French words remind us that France was once the leader in ballet.Later the rulers of Russia became interested in ballet. They offered a great deal of money to the best ballet masters and dancers of France. They founded a ballet school. Soon Russia was the leader in ballet.Today there are many ballet companies. All opera companies, too, have ballets dancers, for ballets are a part of many operas. No one country now leads in ballet.Ballet is not easy to learn. A boy or girl who wishes to be a ballet dancer has to begin going to a ballet school very early. Some begin when they are only three or four. All the parts in a ballet used to be danced by men. But now a girl has as good a chance as a boy of being a famous ballet dancer.69. There are ____ ways of telling a story referred to in the passage.A. 3B. 4C. 5D. 670. Ballet is called toe dancing because ________.A.there is a great deal of toe dancing in every balletB.in some ballets toe dancing is used to fit the storyC.it always tells a story by toe movementsD.the word ballet means “ toe” in French71. Ballet of today can date back as early as _______.A.the days of ancient Greece and RomeB.days before ancient Greece and RomeC.about 600 years agoD.the time when Louis XIV was in power72. _____ never acted as the leader in the history of ballet.A. FranceB. RussiaC. ItalyD. Egypt(E)Believe it or not, optical illusion can cut highway accident. Japan is a case in point. It has reduced car accidents on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion.Bent stripes, called chevrons painted on the roads made drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down. Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japanese success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway accidents. High speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all deadly traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will carry out its tests on areas where speedrelated dangers are the greatest-culver, exist slopes, traffic circles, and bridges. Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars. Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than really are, but also make a road appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of the traffic accidents.73. The text mainly discusses__________.A. a new way of highway speed controlB. a new way of painting highwaysC. a new way of training driversD.the uses of optical illusion74. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that _______.A.they should keep distances from other carsB.they are driving in the wrong wayC.they should slow down their speedD.they are close to the speed limit75. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that it ______.A.can keep drivers awakeB.can cut road accidents in halfC.will have a longer effect on driversD.will look more attractive76. The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ______.A.try out the Japanese method in certain areasB.change the road signs across the countryC.replace straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD.repeat the Japanese road patterns(F)As a result of pollution, Lake Erie, on the borders of the United States and Canada, is now without any living things.Pollution in water is not simply a matter of “poisons”killing large number of fishovernight. Very often the effects of pollution are not noticed for many months or years because the first organisms to be effects of pollution are either plants or plankton. But these organisms are the food of fish and birds and other creatures. When this food disappears, the fish and birds die too. In this way a whole food chain can be wiped out, and it is not until dead fish and water birds are seen at the river’s edge or on the sea shore that people realize what is happening.Where do the substances which pollute the water come from? There are two main sources---sewage and industrial waste. As more detergent(洗洁精) is used in the home, more of it is finally put into our rivers, lakes and seas. Detergents harm water birds, dissolving the natural substances which keep their feathers waterproof. Sewage itself, if not properly treated, makes the water dirty and prevents all forms of life in rivers and lakes from receiving the oxygen they need. Industrial waste is even more harmful since there are many highly poisonous things in it, such as copper and lead.So, if we want to stop this pollution, the answer is simple: Sewage and industrial waste must be made clean before flowing into the water. It may already be too late to save some rivers and lakes, but others can still be saved if the correct action is taken at once.77. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “waterproof” in the third paragraph?A. Full of waterB. Not allowing water to go throughC. Covered with waterD. Cleaned by water78. According to the text, the water which is harmful comes from the following EXCEPT ___.A. industrial wasteB. chemicalsC. water for cleaningD. life in water79 The way to stop water pollution is _______.A.to realize the serious situation clearlyB.to put oxygen into the riverC.to make the waste materials harmlessD.to make special room in the sea for our rubbish80．This text is mainly about_____.A.the fact that water is very important in our daily lifeB.the fact that water is polluted very seriouslyC.water pollution and the way of getting rid of itD.the life in the water第II 卷（共４０分）IV. 单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分；共计10分）81.The only thing to be c________(考虑) is how to raise money for the children.82.With a beverage in his hand, he felt a little r_______ (放松).83.I have no trouble e__________(表达) myself in English.84.The boy had a fever yesterday and his mother had to take him to the d_______(诊所).85.T_______(千) of young people are learning English and computer now.86.Mr. Li moved to the seashore in his f______(四十来岁).87.H______(听到) the good news, we all jumped with joy.88.I changed into my sports shoes so that I could walk more c_______(舒服).89.W_______(星期三) is the fourth day of a week.90.Walking every day keep me f_____(健康) than before.V. 翻译（共5小题，每小题3分；共计15分）91. 她一定是哭过了，这从她的眼睛可以看出来。
