学习啦在线学习网 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Long after the 2002 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still blaming the disputed(受置疑)refereeing(裁判)decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed(任命)to study the performance of some top referees.
The researcher organized an experimental match involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.
学习啦在线学习网 Observers noted down the referees’ errors, of which there were 61 over the match. Changed to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number.
The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyze(分析)the matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the best is about 20 meters.
学习啦在线学习网 There also seemed to be a best speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.
If FIFA, football’s international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rush to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues.
He also says that FIFA’S insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical(挑剔).
56.The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to .
学习啦在线学习网 A.review the decisions of referees at the 2002 World Cup
学习啦在线学习网 B.analyze the causes of errors made by football referees
C.set a standard of football refereeing
学习啦在线学习网 D.reexamine the rules for football refereeing
学习啦在线学习网 57.The findings of the experiment show that .
A.errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ball
B.the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errors are
C.The more slowly the referee runs, the more likely errors will occur
学习啦在线学习网 D.errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot.
58.The underlined word “officials” most probably refers to .
学习啦在线学习网 A.the researchers involved in the experiment
B.the players of the football match
学习啦在线学习网 C.the referees of the football match
D.the observers at the site of the experiment
59.What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?
学习啦在线学习网 A.The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.
学习啦在线学习网 B.Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.
C.A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.
学习啦在线学习网 D.An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.
B
There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have ever taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority(优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities(复杂性) of spelling.
If spelling becomes the only focal(焦点的) point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience. "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.
学习啦在线学习网 60. Teacher are different in their opinions about ______.
A. the difficulties in teaching spelling
B. the role of spelling in general language development
学习啦在线学习网 C. the complexities of the basic writing skills
学习啦在线学习网 D. the necessity of teaching spelling
61. The underlined expression “play safe” probably means _________.
学习啦在线学习网 A. to write carefully B. to do as teachers say
C. to use dictionaries frequently D. to avoid using words one is not sure of
62. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that ___________.
A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely
B. students will have more confidence in writing
C. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes
学习啦在线学习网 D. students will learn to be independent of teachers
63. The author seems to think that the teacher's judgment on that sensitive piece of writing is _________.
A. unfair B. reasonable C. foolish D. careless
学习啦在线学习网 64. The major point discussed in the passage is ________.
A. the importance of developing writing skills
B. the complexities of spelling
学习啦在线学习网 C. the correct way of marking compositions
D. the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition
C
Some people don't believe that driving more slowly can save lives.But the truth is that driving more slowly can help a person to avoid serious accidents.
The following chart shows the distance that it takes to stop a car at a given speed.The distance is measured in feet.The shaded area shows the driver's thinking distance.That's the distance it takes for the driver to react to a danger that he sees.The white area shows the car's braking distance.That's the distance it takes for the car to stop once the brakes(闸、刹车) are used.The number at the top of each bar shows the total number of feet that it takes to stop the car
学习啦在线学习网 65.According to the chart, what is the total number of feet needed to stop a car that is traveling at 50 miles per hour?
A.55. B.73. C.128. D.183.
66.What is the braking distance for a car that is traveling at 60 miles per hour?
学习啦在线学习网 A.66 feet. B.119 feet. C.185 feet. D.251 feet.
67.Which of the following statements about braking and speed is true?
A.The braking distance is what it takes for the driver to react to a danger that he sees.
学习啦在线学习网 B.The speed of a car has a direct effect on the distance needed to stop the car.
C.The braking distance increases only when a driver drives faster than 50 miles per hour
D.Driving slowly can help a person to avoid all accidentsD
学习啦在线学习网 An environmental group called the Food Commission is unhappy and disappointed because of the sale of bottled water from Japan. The water, it angrily argues an public, has traveled 10,000 "food miles" before it reaches Western customers. "Transporting water halfway across the world is surely the extremely stupid use of fuel when there is plenty of water in the UK." It is also worried that we are wasting our fuel by buying prawns(对虾) from Indonesia (7,000 food miles) and carrots from South Africa (5,900 food miles).
Counting the number of miles traveled by a product is a strange way of trying to tell the true situation of the environmental damage done by an industry. Most food is transported around the world on container ships that are extremely energy-efficient (高能效的). It should be noted that a ton of butter transported 25 miles in a truck to a farmers' market does not necessarily use less fuel on its journey than a similar product transported hundreds of miles by sea. Besides, the idea of "food miles" ignores the amount of fuel used in the production. It is possible to cut down your food miles by buying tomatoes grown in Britain rather than those grown in Ghana; the difference is that the British ones will have been raised in heated greenhouses and the Ghanaian ones in the open sun.
学习啦在线学习网 What the idea of "food miles” does provide, however, is the chance to cut out Third World countries from First World food markets. The number of miles traveled by our food should, as I see it, be regarded as a sign of the success of the global (全球的) trade system, not a sign of damage to the environment.
68. The Food Commission is angry because it thinks that_______
A. UK wastes a lot of money importing food products
B. some imported goods cause environmental damage
C. growing certain vegetables damages the environment
学习啦在线学习网 D. people waste energy buying food from other countries
学习啦在线学习网 69. The phrase "food miles" in the passage refers to the distance _______.
学习啦在线学习网 A. that a food product travels to a market
学习啦在线学习网 B. that a food product travels from one market to another
C. between UK and other food producing countries
D. between a Third World country and a First World food market
70. By comparing tomatoes raised in Britain and in Ghana, the author tries to explain that ______
学习啦在线学习网 A. British tomatoes are healthier than Ghanaian ones
B. Ghanaian tomatoes taste better than British ones
C. cutting down food miles may not necessarily save fuel
D. protecting the environment may cost a lot of money
71. From the passage we know that the author is most probably________.
A. a supporter of free global trade
B. a member of the Food Commission
C. a supporter of First World food markets
学习啦在线学习网 D. a member of an energy development group

How many people have I met who have told me about the book they have been planning to write but have never yet found the time too many.
This is Life, all right, but we do treat it like a rehearsal (排演) and, unhappily, we do miss so many of its best moments.
We take jobs to stay alive and provide homes for our families always making ourselves believe that this style of life is merely a temporary state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do. Then, at 60 or 65, we are suddenly presented with a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize that all those years waiting for Real Life to come along were in fact real life.
学习啦在线学习网 In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English:“Have a nice day” they speak slowly and seriously in their shops, hotels and sandwich bars. I think it is a wonderful phrase, reminding us, in effect, to enjoy the moment: to value this very day.
How often do we say to ourselves, "I'll take up horse-riding (or golf, or sailing) as soon as I get a higher position," only to do none of those things when I do get the higher position.
When I first became a reporter I knew a man who gave up a very well paid respectable job at the Daily Telegraph to go and edit a small weekly newspaper. At the time I was astonished by what appeared to me to be his completely abnormal (反常的) mental state. How could anyone turn his back on Fleet Street in central London for a small local area?I wanted to know.
Now I am a little older and possibly wiser, I see the sense in it. In Fleet Street the man was under continual pressure. He lived in an unattractive London suburb and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern Region trains.
72. The first paragraph of the passage tells us that .
A. we always try to find some time to write a book
B. we always make plans but seldom fulfill them
C. we always enjoy many of life's best moments
学习啦在线学习网 D. we always do what we really want to do
73. The underlined phrase "turn his back on" (paragraph 6) most probably means .
学习啦在线学习网 A. leave for B. return to C. give up D. rely on
74. The man ( paragraph 6) left his first job partly because he was .
学习啦在线学习网 A. in an abnormal mental state B. under too much pressure
学习啦在线学习网 C. not well paid D. not respected
学习啦在线学习网 75. What is probably the best title for the passage?
A. Provide Homes For Our Family B. Take Up Horse-riding
学习啦在线学习网 C. Value This Very Day D. Stay Alive

参考答案1:
People used to communicate with each other through letters and public phones. But nowadays they use mobile phones and the Internet instead. This change in communication has good effects on our life and work. Compared with letters and public phones, mobile phones and the Internet are faster and much more convenient. If you miss your grandmother, you just take out your phone and say "hello" to her. If you want to place an order with a foreign company, you can e-mail the message, It'll be a matter of minutes before you get their reply. Aren't we living in a smaller world? (101words)
参考答案2:
More and more people rely on e-mail and mobile phones for communication rather than letters and public phones because the new tools seem faster and make work more efficient. However this change has bad as well as good effects, especially dependence on the Internet. Firstly, as we lack enough practice, we are losing the beauty of hand-written Chinese words which express the writer better while machine words all have the same looks., Secondly, our spelling becomes worse if we rely on the machine too much. Last but not least, the PC screen does harm to our eyes. I prefer the old way of communication even though it is much too slow in the eyes of many.(116words)

学习啦在线学习网 M: So, what do you want to do tomorrow?
W: Well, let's look at this city guide here. [ okay ! ] Uh, here's something interesting. [ Oh ! ] Why don't we first visit the art museum in the morning?

W: How about going to an Indian restaurant? [ Humm. ] The guide recommends one downtown a few blocks from the museum.
M: Now that sounds great. After that, what do you think about visiting the zoo? [ Oh... umm ...well... ] Well, it says here that there are some very unique animals not found anywhere else.

学习啦在线学习网 Now let's go on with the topic about "My Interests". When my interest changed from space to the sea, I never expected that my friends would be so surprised and puzzled. Yet I can understand their feelings. As I have been writing and talking about space flight for the best part of 20 years, a sudden switch of interest to the depth of the sea does seem rather strange. To explain, I'd like to share my reasons behind this unusual change of mind. The first excuse I give is an economic one. Underwater exploration is so much cheaper than space flight. The first round-trip ticket to the moon is going to cost at least 10 billion dollars if you include research and development. By the end of this century, the cost will be down to a few million. On the other hand, the diving suit and a set of basic tools needed for skin-diving can be bought for 20 dollars. My second argument is more philosophical. The ocean, surprisingly enough, has many things in common with space. In their different ways, both sea and space are equally hostile environment. If we wish to survive in either for any length of time, we need to have special equipment. The diving suit helped the design of the space suit. The feelings and the emotions of a man in the deep sea will be much like those of a man out in space.
