Very far away from the city lived a poor farmer and his wife. In front of their house was a small dirt road. Very few cars drove on this road because it was so far from the city. On the dirt road, there was a big hole filled with water. The hole was very deep, but drivers on the road didn't know just how deep. Drivers always drove into the hole, but they never drove out.
One day, a man in a new car was driving down the road. He saw the hole with the water, but he didn't think it was very deep. He drove into the hole, but he couldn't drive out. The man saw the farmer on his tractor working in the field, and he signaled to the farmer. The farmer drove over to the man in the new car.

“Actually, no,”said the farmer.
“Why not?”asked the man.

The kite was originally called Zhiyuan in North China, and Yaozi in South China. Early in the Five dynasties, a man named Li Ye used to make and fly a kite in the emperor's court. He once attached a whistle made of bamboo to the kite. Sound was let out when the kite was flying. The kite was named after Zheng, a kind of Chinese music instrument. Then it was named Fengzheng in Chinese.
The earliest kite in the world was made by Motse, a famous Chinese philosopher, who lived 2,300 years ago, for military (军事的) purposes. He spent three years making an eagle and managed to fly it. The eagle was later regarded as the first kite in the world. Kite-flying became a recreation probably from the Tang dynasty when the royal family and people of the highest class were addicted to it. It was said that the Emperor Xuanzong in the Tang dynasty once was interested in a kite named Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea flying in the air. Later, the paper-made kite was invented, which cost less and spread quickly among the common people. As time went on, kites flew to various countries in the world. 'The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important scientific invention which spread to Europe from China in his book, A History of China's Science and Technology. The invention of the kite inspired men’s dream of flying and led to the invention of the airplane.
60. The kite made by Li Ye was named after a Chinese music instrument because __________ .
A. it was made of bamboo B. it could sound in the sky
C. Li Ye was a musician D. it looked like a whistle
61. What led to the invention of the kite according to the passage?
A. Wars. B. An eagle.
C. Motse's interest in animals. D. Motse's dream of flying.
62. Why was kite-flying not a popular recreation among common people at first?
A. Because they were too busy to fly kites. B. Because they were not allowed to fly kites.
C. Because it was difficult to make kites. D. Because it was expensive to make kites.
63. Which of the following statements might Dr. Needham agree with? www .xkb 1.com
A. The Chinese people first tried to invent airplanes.
B. The Chinese spread the idea of flying to Europe.
C. The invention of kites in China is great.
D. The invention of kites achieved the dream to fly.

Your mother was wrong: Sitting up straight is bad for you. Scottish radiologists confirmed in a study last year that bending back 130 degrees between body and the upper part of legs reduces pressure on t he discs (椎间盘) in the lower back. This is why the Aeron chair was so ahead of its time in 1994.
But designers find that the features of chairs like the Aeron are lost on most sitters. Tension from bending back, lumbar (腰部的) support and seat pan depth are commonly ignored by users, who only think to change the chair's height.
This disuse has producers such as Herman Miller and Human scale looking toward the next frontier: a self-adjusting chair. “We're working on a chair that will listen to who's sitting on it and adjust itself to their weight,”says Bill Dowell, director of research at Herman Miller, which makes the Aeron. Human scale’s Freedom chair includes a counterbalance system (平衡系统)that adjusts itself according to the sitter's weight as he or she bends back.
Or p erhaps the chair of the future isn't one at all. Chairs contribute in part to the high rate of back pain, which affects eight out of ten Americans.“Our idea of a machine for sitting may not make sense in a globalized world,”says Herman Miller designer Cameron Campbell. Galen Cranz points out in her book The Chair that the Indian practice of squatting (蹲)and the Muslim practice, of stretching five times a day Lo pray have great ergonomic (工效学的)benefits. Ten years from now, one worker may settle into a low recliner (躺椅) , another will kneel on a soft carpet, and they’ll talk across a pile of office cushions.
64. Why was the Aeron chair so popular once?
A. It was just newly invented. B. It offered comfort and health to sitters.
C. It could cure many diseases. D. It changed people's ideas about sitting position.
65. The second paragraph mainly tells us that the Aeron chair__________ .
A. had many weaknesses before B. needed improving timely
C. wasn't made full use of D. could be changed in height
66. What most probably makes the Freedom chair attract its sitters？
A. Its ability to adjust itself. B. Its cheap price.
C. Its understanding of sitters' words. D. Its different appearance.
67. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that __________ .
A. workers all need a low recliner B. the future chairs will not sell well
C. the globalized chairs are in great need D. the future chairs will satisfy different people's needs
D
teenagers who do not get enough of the nutrients commonly found in fruits and fish are easier to have bad lungs, coughing and wheezing（喘息).Teens who eat the least of fruit and especially vitamin C have weaker lungs compared to the others.
Teens who take in less vitamin E, found in vegetable oil and nuts, are more likely to have asthma(哮喘) , Jane Burns at the Harvard School of Public Health found.
Based on these findings, Burns said that current recommended dose (一剂) of vitamin C, 85 mg a day, may not be enough for teens to have healthy lungs. Teens who eat less fruit and don't take in enough fatty acids (脂肪酸) are more likely to have asthma and the signs of breathing difficulty.
Proper amounts of fatty acids are protective, Burns said, though fish, the best source of fatty acids, is particularly unpopular with teenagers. Fatty acids are also found in some nuts as well as some green vegetables. Smokers who avoid vitamin C will increase their chances of coughing, wheezing and developing phlegm (痰) .
More than 80 percent of teens are getting their recommended doses of vitamin C --- mainly from fruit drinks.“I wouldn't approve of drinking them, but at least they're getting their vitamin C from somewhere,” Burns said.
Burns added that there are several different ways to get the necessary nutrients.
“I think vitamin supplements are fine. I think adding vitamin D to orange juice is fine. But I do think there are added benefits that we don't fully understand to eating whole focus like fruits and vegetables and fish,” she said. The researchers did not account for poverty and other factors that often distinguish less-healthy eaters and may explain their findings.
68. According Lo the passage, what is the problem with teens who don't get enough nutrients?
A. They are becoming smokers. B. They don't take enough exercise.
C. They eat too much fruit and fish. D. They are likely to have weaker lungs.
69. According to Burns, how should teens get the necessary nutrients?
A. By drinking juice as much as possible. B. By eating more whole foods.
C. By taking vitamin pills. D. By giving up smoking.
70. Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the researchers in the passage?
A. The amount of nutrients teens should take in a day.
B. How teens can take in enough nutrients.
C. Whether poor teens can prove their findings.
D. The fact that teens don't like fish.
71. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Poor nutrition hurts teens' lungs. B. Teens lack proper nutrition.
C. Teens are easy to suffer from diseases. D. More fruit help keep teens healthy.

Part of the magic in movies is the costumes. They can transform a normal-looking actor into a cowboy, a space alien or even a superhero. Costumes for movies are designed and created by a whole team of people, according to Courtney Daniel, a Toronto-based costume designer who worked on the recent movie Night At The Museum.
As a designer, she does research to find out what details are needed to make a costume work, and what makes sense for a specific movie. In Night At The Museum, she and a few other designers spent time at libraries and museums studying everything from what cowboys should wear, to what ancient Egyptians and Huns would have put on. Once they got the information they needed, they figured out what fabrics (织物) to use and how to put them together.
The designers even changed a few details to make the costumes more“movie friendly”. For example, more colour and extra touches (修饰)helped historical costumes to be alive for kids. One example of this is the costume for the role in the movie Night At The Museum, an Indian woman Sacagawea, which has a shorter skirt and fits more closely than the clothes the real Sacagawea would have worn.
Daniel has also worked on costumes for other big-name movies, such as the second and third X-Men movies, and Catwoman. If you are. interested in being a costume designer, it helps to have an interest in sewing. She said,“Learning how to sew, and how different fabrics and materials work is important.”So is knowing how to carry out research, Daniel's degree in art history helped in this area.
72. According to the first paragraph, the costumes __________ .
A. help designers become famous B. play an important part in movies
C. can change the actors' characteristics D. create a team of designers
73. According to the passage, a designer __________ .
A. needs to know every country's culture B. should learn how to carry out research
C. needs to learn about the Egyptians' way of life
D. won't be successful without a degree in art history
74. What does the underlined part“movie friendly”in the third paragraph mean ?
A. Acceptable to the director. B. Free for the audience
C. Suitable for movies. D. Friendly to the actors
75. What do we know about the movie Night At The Museum?
A. Sacagawea is one of the characters in it. B.“Catwoman”is an important character.
C. It has nothing to do with cowboys. D. It is about the evolution of costumes.
第II卷（非选择题共35分）
第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）
第一节 任务型读写（共10小题 ；每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表 格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Many people, when starting to gamble(赌博) , think that there will be no problem to stop at any given time, but they don't even realize how their initial excitement eventually transforms into losing of control, how they start to gamble more and more frequently in order to bet larger and larger amounts of money, and finally turn into real addicts.
Addictive gambling can harm the relationships at home and at work. People even start doing things they never thought they would, like stealing to get money to gamble or pay gambling debts. They start to lie and cheat once out of cash to use for their addiction.
Gabling is the only thing that occupies the mind of an addict and is all they want to do, no matter what the consequences are. Gamblers keep gambling whether they are in a go od or in a bad mood, whether they are happy or depressed. It seems that o nly so can they not feel empty. According to the experts, there are three stages leading to gambling addiction :
1st stage: The so-called winning stage. It starts with the player's first wins. This event releases such a big amount of stimulation into the brain of an individual, that they will pay any price to repeat the stimulation.
2nd stage: The losing stage. Eventually, the player will start to lose from time to time. The excessive players usually do not like to lose. They start playing more and more in order to get the lost money back, and always believe that the luck is just on its way. This very often leads to trapping the player into a terrible circle.
3rd stage: The desperate stage. At this point, the person is already deeply affected by the gambling addiction. He becomes separated from the society and sees no hope. At this stage, the player is often in complete sadness where the need for help is a desperate extremity (极点).
In order to overcome a gambling addiction, the first step to start with is to admit, recognize and accept the problem by addicts themselves. For many gamblers, this is usually the hardest part. Most of them may not just realize that they are having this problem, while others may be aware of it but would not admit its existence.
This might be a good time to come clean to the loved ones and ask for their support. However, it is recommended to seek professional help from an addiction expert. People with this kind of problem can receive help fro m professionals only after the y have started to help themselves by admitting their difficult situation. Recovery will never happen when people minimize the extent of their condition, when they start making excuses, or blame others for their mistakes.
Overcoming a gambling addiction or problem is never easy. Counseling is a good choice in order to gain a control over the gambling addiction, and is the best wav to find a long-term solution.

On the dirt road, there was a big hole filled with water. The hole was very deep, but drivers on the road didn't know just how deep. Drivers always drove into the hole, but they never drove out.
One day, a man in a new car was driving down the road. He saw the hole with the water, but he didn't think it was very deep. He drove into the hole, but he couldn't drive out.

The kite was originally called Zhiyuan in North China, and Yaozi in South China. Early in the Five dynasties, a man named Li Ye used to make and fly a kite in the emperor's court. He once attached a whistle made of bamboo to the kite. Sound was let out when the kite was flying. The kite was named after Zheng, a kind of Chinese music instrument. Then it was named Fengzheng in Chinese.
The earliest kite in the world was made by Motse, a famous Chinese philosopher, who lived 2,300 years ago, for military (军事的) purposes. He spent three years making an eagle and managed to fly it. The eagle was later regarded as the first kite in the world. Kite-flying became a recreation probably from the Tang dynasty when the royal family and people of the highest class were addicted to it. It was said that the Emperor Xuanzong in the Tang dynasty once was interested in a kite named Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea flying in the air. Later, the paper-made kite was invented, which cost less and spread quickly among the common people. As time went on, kites flew to various countries in the world. 'The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important scientific invention which spread to Europe from China in his book, A History of China's Science and Technology. The invention of the kite inspired men’s dream of flying and led to the invention of the airplane.

C. The invention of kites in China is great.
D. The invention of kites achieved the dream to fly.

Your mother was wrong: Sitting up straight is bad for you. Scottish radiologists confirmed in a study last year that bending back 130 degrees between body and the upper part of legs reduces pressure on t he discs (椎间盘) in the lower back. This is why the Aeron chair was so ahead of its time in 1994.
But designers find that the features of chairs like the Aeron are lost on most sitters. Tension from bending back, lumbar (腰部的) support and seat pan depth are commonly ignored by users, who only think to change the chair's height.
This disuse has producers such as Herman Miller and Human scale looking toward the next frontier: a self-adjusting chair. “We're working on a chair that will listen to who's sitting on it and adjust itself to their weight,”says Bill Dowell, director of research at Herman Miller, which makes the Aeron. Human scale’s Freedom chair includes a counterbalance system (平衡系统)that adjusts itself according to the sitter's weight as he or she bends back.
Or p erhaps the chair of the future isn't one at all. Chairs contribute in part to the high rate of back pain, which affects eight out of ten Americans.“Our idea of a machine for sitting may not make sense in a globalized world,”says Herman Miller designer Cameron Campbell. Galen Cranz points out in her book The Chair that the Indian practice of squatting (蹲)and the Muslim practice, of stretching five times a day Lo pray have great ergonomic (工效学的)benefits. Ten years from now, one worker may settle into a low recliner (躺椅) , another will kneel on a soft carpet, and they’ll talk across a pile of office cushions.
64. Why was the Aeron chair so popular once?
A. It was just newly invented. B. It offered comfort and health to sitters.
C. It could cure many diseases. D. It changed people's ideas about sitting position.
65. The second paragraph mainly tells us that the Aeron chair__________ .
A. had many weaknesses before B. needed improving timely
C. wasn't made full use of D. could be changed in height
66. What most probably makes the Freedom chair attract its sitters？
A. Its ability to adjust itself. B. Its cheap price.
C. Its understanding of sitters' words. D. Its different appearance.
67. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that __________ .
A. workers all need a low recliner B. the future chairs will not sell well
C. the globalized chairs are in great need D. the future chairs will satisfy different people's needs
D
teenagers who do not get enough of the nutrients commonly found in fruits and fish are easier to have bad lungs, coughing and wheezing（喘息).Teens who eat the least of fruit and especially vitamin C have weaker lungs compared to the others.
Teens who take in less vitamin E, found in vegetable oil and nuts, are more likely to have asthma(哮喘) , Jane Burns at the Harvard School of Public Health found.
Based on these findings, Burns said that current recommended dose (一剂) of vitamin C, 85 mg a day, may not be enough for teens to have healthy lungs. Teens who eat less fruit and don't take in enough fatty acids (脂肪酸) are more likely to have asthma and the signs of breathing difficulty.
Proper amounts of fatty acids are protective, Burns said, though fish, the best source of fatty acids, is particularly unpopular with teenagers. Fatty acids are also found in some nuts as well as some green vegetables. Smokers who avoid vitamin C will increase their chances of coughing, wheezing and developing phlegm (痰) .
More than 80 percent of teens are getting their recommended doses of vitamin C --- mainly from fruit drinks.“I wouldn't approve of drinking them, but at least they're getting their vitamin C from somewhere,” Burns said.
Burns added that there are several different ways to get the necessary nutrients.
“I think vitamin supplements are fine. I think adding vitamin D to orange juice is fine. But I do think there are added benefits that we don't fully understand to eating whole focus like fruits and vegetables and fish,” she said. The researchers did not account for poverty and other factors that often distinguish less-healthy eaters and may explain their findings.
68. According Lo the passage, what is the problem with teens who don't get enough nutrients?
A. They are becoming smokers. B. They don't take enough exercise.
C. They eat too much fruit and fish. D. They are likely to have weaker lungs.
69. According to Burns, how should teens get the necessary nutrients?
A. By drinking juice as much as possible. B. By eating more whole foods.
C. By taking vitamin pills. D. By giving up smoking.
70. Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the researchers in the passage?
A. The amount of nutrients teens should take in a day.
B. How teens can take in enough nutrients.
C. Whether poor teens can prove their findings.
D. The fact that teens don't like fish.
71. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Poor nutrition hurts teens' lungs. B. Teens lack proper nutrition.
C. Teens are easy to suffer from diseases. D. More fruit help keep teens healthy.

Part of the magic in movies is the costumes. They can transform a normal-looking actor into a cowboy, a space alien or even a superhero. Costumes for movies are designed and created by a whole team of people, according to Courtney Daniel, a Toronto-based costume designer who worked on the recent movie Night At The Museum.
As a designer, she does research to find out what details are needed to make a costume work, and what makes sense for a specific movie. In Night At The Museum, she and a few other designers spent time at libraries and museums studying everything from what cowboys should wear, to what ancient Egyptians and Huns would have put on. Once they got the information they needed, they figured out what fabrics (织物) to use and how to put them together.
The designers even changed a few details to make the costumes more“movie friendly”. For example, more colour and extra touches (修饰)helped historical costumes to be alive for kids. One example of this is the costume for the role in the movie Night At The Museum, an Indian woman Sacagawea, which has a shorter skirt and fits more closely than the clothes the real Sacagawea would have worn.
Daniel has also worked on costumes for other big-name movies, such as the second and third X-Men movies, and Catwoman. If you are. interested in being a costume designer, it helps to have an interest in sewing. She said,“Learning how to sew, and how different fabrics and materials work is important.”So is knowing how to carry out research, Daniel's degree in art history helped in this area.
72. According to the first paragraph, the costumes __________ .
A. help designers become famous B. play an important part in movies
C. can change the actors' characteristics D. create a team of designers
73. According to the passage, a designer __________ .
A. needs to know every country's culture B. should learn how to carry out research
C. needs to learn about the Egyptians' way of life
D. won't be successful without a degree in art history
74. What does the underlined part“movie friendly”in the third paragraph mean ?
A. Acceptable to the director. B. Free for the audience
C. Suitable for movies. D. Friendly to the actors
75. What do we know about the movie Night At The Museum?
A. Sacagawea is one of the characters in it. B.“Catwoman”is an important character.

Many people, when starting to gamble(赌博) , think that there will be no problem to stop at any given time, but they don't even realize how their initial excitement eventually transforms into losing of control, how they start to gamble more and more frequently in order to bet larger and larger amounts of money, and finally turn into real addicts.
Addictive gambling can harm the relationships at home and at work. People even start doing things they never thought they would, like stealing to get money to gamble or pay gambling debts. They start to lie and cheat once out of cash to use for their addiction.
Gabling is the only thing that occupies the mind of an addict and is all they want to do, no matter what the consequences are. Gamblers keep gambling whether they are in a go od or in a bad mood, whether they are happy or depressed. It seems that o nly so can they not feel empty. According to the experts, there are three stages leading to gambling addiction :
1st stage: The so-called winning stage. It starts with the player's first wins. This event releases such a big amount of stimulation into the brain of an individual, that they will pay any price to repeat the stimulation.
2nd stage: The losing stage. Eventually, the player will start to lose from time to time. The excessive players usually do not like to lose. They start playing more and more in order to get the lost money back, and always believe that the luck is just on its way. This very often leads to trapping the player into a terrible circle.
3rd stage: The desperate stage. At this point, the person is already deeply affected by the gambling addiction. He becomes separated from the society and sees no hope. At this stage, the player is often in complete sadness where the need for help is a desperate extremity (极点).
In order to overcome a gambling addiction, the first step to start with is to admit, recognize and accept the problem by addicts themselves. For many gamblers, this is usually the hardest part. Most of them may not just realize that they are having this problem, while others may be aware of it but would not admit its existence.
This might be a good time to come clean to the loved ones and ask for their support. However, it is recommended to seek professional help from an addiction expert. People with this kind of problem can receive help fro m professionals only after the y have started to help themselves by admitting their difficult situation. Recovery will never happen when people minimize the extent of their condition, when they start making excuses, or blame others for their mistakes.
Overcoming a gambling addiction or problem is never easy. Counseling is a good choice in order to gain a control over the gambling addiction, and is the best wav to find a long-term solution.
