Believing my career (職業(yè)生涯)was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and peting. That was it-the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isnt difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasnt finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”Karen PickeringSwimming World Champion“I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to successyou cant follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. “Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and youll be a step closer to achieving them.”Kirsten BestPoet Writer“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I cant achieve something. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it helps a lot to repeat words such as calm, peace or focus, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can bee second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological (心理的) tool.”21. What does Sir Steven Redgrave mainly talk about? A. Difficulties influenced his career. B.

The Great Wall was the center of attention, with a clean-up of the surrounding area, and tree planting. The volunteers hope their actions can raise public awareness about environmental protection. Familiar faces including film star Jackie Chan and TV host Yang Lan from Hong Kong were at the Great Wall. Over 200 college students joined them. Theyre all volunteers for a government sponsored (主辦) environmental protection program. A latest government report warns, Chinas fragile (易脆的) environment and limited resources could hardly support economic development in the next five to ten years. However, Chinese citizens have long neglected environmental protection. Organizers hope these young people will influence people around. Pan Yue, vice minister of State Environmental Protection Administration (環(huán)保局)，said, “The government can only make policy. But environmental protection also depends on public participation (參與). Public figures, ordinary people and the government should all join hands.” Around the country, over 10,000 college students joined their peers in Beijing - planting trees, raising awareness about water protection and cleaning rubbish from rivers.

Since they were told an earthquake would hit Tokyo around September 16, Japanese people havent been able to get these thoughts out of their minds.They heard the news from Yoshio Kushida, a researcher who used radio waves to predict that an earthquake would strike with a magnitude(量級(jí)) of at least seven. “It would be terrible not to warn people of a possible disaster in case a quake actually occurs,”he said.His warning had a big effect. Frightened Tokyo people have been stocking up on (貯存) water, food and candles in preparation for the terrible day.But Kushida hasnt had much support from the experts. At present, predicting earthquakes is thought to be impossible. No one can tell exactly where or when the next major earthquake will occur. An earthquake begins tens of miles below the earths surface: its too far away to see.Ancient Chinese and Italian scientists forecast earthquakes by special “earthquake clouds”. They found that a week before an earthquake, there were often strange clouds shaped like snakes, waves or feathers in the sky. They thought the clouds might e from a gas produced underground by an earthquake.People also used to watch animals to see if earthquakes were ing. When they saw birds fly away suddenly, dogs barking violently or fish jumping out of the water, they told people to leave the area. Some scientists believed animals had a sharper sense of changes taking place underground.But the ancient methods were not reliable enough. Nowadays, scientists use special instruments to predict earthquakes more precisely(精確地).Satellite systems are very useful: they record small changes in the earths magnetic fields(磁場(chǎng)) which help show where and when an earthquake may strike.28. Since they were told an earthquake would hit Tokyo, Japanese people _. A. have had no mind to do their work B. have always thought great damage it may cause C. have almost forgot about it D. have bought all the foods in the markets29. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Tokyo people were surprised at the warning. B. Greater disasters would happen if people are not warned of before earthquake. C. Predicting earthquakes is pletely impossible at present science level. D. According to ancient people, before an earthquake we can see strange clouds anywhere.30. We can infer from the passage that _. A. an earthquake is about to attack Tokyo B. there are signs of an earthquake anyone can know about before it happens C. some animals can precisely predict any earthquake D. people predict earthquakes according to small changes of magnetic fields of the earth more precisely31. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Earthquake Prediction B. Magnetic Fields C. EarthquakesD. Earthquake in Japan D“Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton（骨骼）in the closet（衣櫥）?” Jessica asked. “A skeleton in the closet?” her mother paused thoughtfully. “Well, its something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dads family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be a skeleton in his familys closet. He really wouldnt want any neighbor to know about it.”“Why pick on my family?” Jessicas father said with anger. “Your family history isnt so good, you know. Wasnt your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?” “Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.” “Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessicas parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessicas closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessicas mother sank in a faint（暈倒）, waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.“What happened? Where am I?” she asked. “You just destroyed the schools skeleton, Mum,” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “Theyre both crazy,” she thought.32. According to Jessicas mother, “a skeleton in the close” means _.A. a family honor B. a family secret C. a family story D. a family treasure33. What can we learn about some Australians ancestors form Paragraph 2?A. They were brought to Australia as prisoners.B. They were the earliest people living in Australia.C.

However, how can we protect ourselves more effectively? 36 37 People in small cars are injured more often and more severely than people traveling in large cars. Factories of small cars are strengthening their products safety, which helps. But the mix of large cars and small cars on the road is the main reason of the problem.Being thrown into glass and metal car parts, or being thrown from the car can really hurt or even kill you. 38 The safety belts main purpose is to pull you back if your car has a sudden crash with another vehicle or object, or if it rolls over. A belt can reduce the chance of deadly injury by 45% and the chance of serious injury 50%.Air bags are important. More than half of all new cars sold have air bags. Air bags provide protection in frontal crashes- the type of crash that kills the most drivers - when they are also wearing safety belts. Most people are demanding air bags in the cars they buy. 39 Effective as they are, they cant take the place of safety belts. 40 Drunk driving crashes are less likely to happen if you dont drink.

Every language has its own special words and expressions. And a story can be told about each of them.Hot is a simple, 62 (easy) understood word. So are most of the 63 (express) made with the word hot. 64 not always, as we shall see. The words hot and potato, for example, give you no idea at all to the meaning of the expression, hot potato.The potato is a popular vegetable in the United States. Many people like baked potatoes, 65 (cook) in an oven or fire. Imagine trying to carry a hot potato in your hand. It would be difficult, even painful, to do so.Now we are getting close to the meaning of hot potato. Some publicly disputed (廣泛爭(zhēng)議的) issues are highly 66 (sense). The issues must be treated carefully, or they will be difficult and painful if 67 elected official has to deal with them. They will be as difficult and painful as holding a hot potato.One such hot potato is taxes. Calling for 68 (high) taxes can mean defeat for a politician. And yet, 69 taxes are not raised, some very popular government programs could be cut. And that also can make a politician very popular. So the questions must 70 (deal) with carefully, the same way you would handle any other hot potato.第四部分 寫作 （共兩節(jié)，滿分35分） 第一節(jié)短文改錯(cuò) （共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分）假定英語(yǔ)課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文，請(qǐng)你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。文中共有10處語(yǔ)言錯(cuò)誤，每句中最多有兩處。每處錯(cuò)誤僅涉及一個(gè)單詞的增加、刪除或修改。增加：在缺詞處加一個(gè)漏字符號(hào)（），并在其下面寫出該加的詞。刪除：把多余的詞用斜線（）劃掉。修改：在錯(cuò)的詞下劃一橫線，并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。注意：1. 每處錯(cuò)誤及其修改均僅限一詞；2. 只允許修改10處，多者（從第11處起）不計(jì)分。Dear Grandpa,How are you those days? I have been missing you very much after I went to college a year ago. Whenever I think of the old days, I feel very happily. I still remember when I was child, you always held me in your arms and told me stories till I fall asleep. We often went to the fields to enjoy the pleasant view there.

Now my friend Ann, together with me, are going to do field study and the findings will be use as materials for our research. Since well do the study in our hometown, I hope to see you by then.
