A.
A LITTLE PRINCESS by Frances Hodgson Burnett Price: $7.10 （Paperback Dec. 9, 1998) The novel tells of the story of a wealthy young girl, Sara Crewe, who is sent to a boarding school during her father’s campaign in India. Thanks to Capt. Crewe’s money, Sara is treated as a little princess until, one day, word comes of her father’s tragic death. Miss Minchin, the school’s greedy headmistress, wastes no time in putting the now-penniless Sara to work for her room and board. It is only through the friendship of two other girls and some astonishing luck that Sara eventually finds her way back to happiness. THE SECRET GARDEN by Frances Hodgson Burnett Price:$3.95 (Paperback July 1, 2003) Frances Hodgson Burnett was the highest paid and most widely read woman writer of her time, publishing more than fifty novels and thirteen plays. The Secret Garden is a beautiful tale of friendship, secrets and human spirits. A spoiled orphan named Mary returns to England from India when her parents die. She is sent to live in Yorkshire with her uncle. Miserable and lonely, she begins to explore the house’s gardens and discovers a key to a secret garden that the uncle sealed off when his wife died. There she discovered a secret so important, so enchanting, that it will change her life forever.
PETER PAN by J. M. Barrie and Scott Gustafson Price: $16.95 （Hardcover Oct. 1, 1991) It is a children’s story full of imagination and adventures. A boy who can fly and magically refuses to grow up, Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood adventuring on the small island of Neverland as the leader of his gang the Lost Boys, interacting with mermaids, Indians, fairies and pirates, and from time to time meeting ordinary children from the world outside.

21. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the three books? A. The little princess refers to a girl named Sara Crewe.
B. The secret garden mentioned in the passage is located in India. C. Peter Pan is a boy with magic powers who never grows up. D. A Little Princess was written by a famous female writer. 22. How much does it cost to order these three books online?
A. $5.60 B. $25.00 C. $22.40 D. $ 28.00 23. What do these three books have in common? A. They were published in the same year. B. They all have a hard cover.
C. They are all stories with tragic endings. D. They have children as their main characters.
B
In 1990，22-year-old Christopher McCandless gave up his career plans，left behind everyone he knew，donated all his savings to charity，and went off on an adventure，hiking his way through America to Alaska．
Of course，this is an unusual story．Most college graduates would not do so．However，studies show that in teenage years，people are more likely to try out new experiences．For example，instead of working his way up the same organization like his grandfather did，a 15-year-old may dream about becoming a traveller一only to find in his early 20s that this attraction of new places is fading and change is less attractive．
The reason why people become less keen to change as they get older may be that people generally have similar life patterns and demands．Most people aim to find a job and a partner. As they get older，they may have young children and elderly family members to look after. These responsibilities cannot be achieved without some degree of steadiness，which means that new
experiences and ideas may not have a place in the person’s life．New experiences may bring excitement as well as insecurity，and so most people prefer to stay with the familiar.
However，not every individual is the same. A child may want to play a different game every day and get fed up if nothing changes at the kindergarten．Another may play with the same children and toys on every visit. Young children who avoid new experiences will grow up to be more traditional than others. Psychologist argue that those who have more open personalities as children are more open than others might be when they are older and that young men have a greater interest in novelty than women，although as they age，this desire for new experiences fades more quickly than it does in women．
24．The first paragraph serves as a(n） ．
A . introduction B．explanation C．comment D. background
25．What does the author think is the key factor that prevents people trying out new experiences? A.Age. B. Partner. C. Responsibility . D. Education. 26．The underlined phrase“interest in novelty”most probably means ． A. independence B. curiosity C．security D.excitement 27．According to the passage，we can infer that_______.
A . a child who likes different games may not like to change after growing up B . a teenager is not interested in a new start before graduation C . women are more likely to try new things than men of the same age D . as one gets older，he prefers the old patterns of life
C
In my first week as a graduate student at Cambridge University in 1964 I met with a fellow student, two years ahead of me in his studies; he was unsteady on his feet and spoke with great difficulty. This was Stephen Hawking. I learned that he had a bad disease and might not live long enough even to finish his PhD degree.
But, amazingly, he has reached the age of 73. Even mere survival would have been a medical miracle, but of course, he didn’t merely survive. He has become arguably the most famous scientist in the world for his brilliant research, for his bestselling books, and, above all, for his astonishing victory over hardship.
Stephen received his “death sentence” in 1964, when I thought it was hard for him to go on with his study. Stephen went from Albans School to Oxford University. He was said to be a “lazy” undergraduate, but his brilliance earned him a first-class degree, an “entry ticket” to a research career in Cambridge and a uniquely inspiring achievement.
Within a few years of the burst of his disease he was wheelchair-bound, and his speech was so unclear that it could only be understood by those who knew him well. But his scientific career went from strength to strength: he quickly came up with a series of insights into the nature of black holes (then a very new idea) and how the universe began. In 1974 he was elected to the
Royal Society at the exceptionally early age of 32.
The great advances in science generally involve discovering a link between phenomena that were previously conceptually unconnected — for instance, Isaac Newton realized that the force making an apple fall to earth was the same as the force that holds the moon and planets in their orbits. Stephen’s revolutionary idea about a link between gravity and quantum(量子) theory has still not been tested. However, it has been hugely influential; indeed, one of the main achievements of string theory(弦理论)has been to confirm and build on his idea. He has undoubtedly done more than anyone else since Einstein to improve our knowledge of gravity and he is one of the top-ten living theoretical physicists. 28. What impressed the author most about Stephen Hawking?
A. His brilliant research. C. His serious disease.
B. His bestselling books. D. His defeating hardship.
29. What made Stephen Hawking start his research career at Cambridge?
A. His above-average talent and ability. B. His “lazy” attitude. C. His death sentence.
A. in the late 1940s C. in the early 1930s 31. What can we learn from the text?
A. Hawking’s theory was proved years ago. B. Hawking was not as successful as Newton. C. String theory built on Hawking’s idea.
D. Hawking’s theory has had little influence on others.
D
Have you had this experience? You are watching a movie. A man is shooting on the screen. The picture is so real that you think he is shooting at you. Or a car is speeding on the screen and at one point you are afraid that it will hit you.
Three-dimensional(3D)movies use special technology to make pictures seem more real and exciting than two-dimensional ones. The popular movie Avatar uses 3D technology.
So far we can only see 3D movies in the cinema with a special screen and projector(放映机）.But soon, we will be able to watch them in our living rooms. Last month, Woods Company told reporters that it plans to bring 3D televisions to homes in the near future. The company is also hoping to make other products with 3D, like laptops and PS3
“The 3D train is on the track, and we are ready to drive it home,” said the President. 3D movies and TV programs are fun to watch, but do you know how they are made? It is much easier to understand if we do an experiment.
Hold one of your fingers up at arms length and close one eye. Then try closing the other eye. As you switch between open eyes, you should see your finger “jumping” left and right against the
D. His rich experience. B. in the early 1940s D. in the late 1930s
30. It can be inferred that Stephen Hawking was born .
background.
This happens because our two eyes are about 4cm away from each other. The separation causes each eye to see the world from a different angle. The brain puts these two views together. What you see becomes three-dimensional.
3D movies are made using two video cameras at the same time, which creates two different images. When the movie plays in a cinema, two projectors put the two images on the screen. With a pair of 3D glasses, the two images are separated and each image only enters one eye. Your brain puts the two pictures back together, and the pictures on the screen become three-dimensional. 32. What does the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. They’ve got a train to take 3D movies back home. B. They are not sure about the future of 3D movies. C. They are ready to bring 3D technology to home.
D.They have no more work to do on 3D technology . 33. From the passage, we know that 3D technology ________. A.creates two different images separately B.works in the similar way of eyes seeing things C. uses special video cameras and screens D. can be very easy to experiment with 34. The passage is mainly about ________. A. what 3D technology needs B. what 3D movies are
C.how 3D movies develops D. how 3D technology works
35. In which page of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage?
A. Science C. News
B. Advertisement D.Fiction
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We all regard receiving presents as a pleasant experience and yet it can be one of the most awkward situations. It is often difficult to look pleased when you receive a gift which is entirely useless or the wrong size.
36 However, you have no right to change an article purchased just because it does not fit or is not to your liking. Worse still, the agreement on the sale is between the person who bought it and the shop.
So you will have to tell your favorite aunt that the T-shirt does not fit. But an exchange is not always that simple because there has to be a good reason for it. 37 For example, if the buyer was told that a switch was voice operated and later found out it was not, then action could
be taken. You would have the right to return it and get the money back.
But if you are returning something, no matter what the reason is, you will be expected to have proof of purchase. If the receipt（收据）cannot be found, then it is possible to use another proof of purchase such as a credit card receipt. 38
Many big stores have a much more tolerant policy towards returns and see it as a gesture of goodwill to exchange goods without question. Stores including Marks & Spencer are well known for their “no argument” policy on returned goods. 39 So if a shop refuses to exchange the goods or to offer a refund(退款), the seller is likely to be within his legal rights unless there is something wrong with the goods. In that case, the boot is on the other foot. You have every right to demand a cash refund or a replacement, but only if you have returned it within a “reasonable” time.
40 Some shops and stores expect things to be returned within a week of purchase, while others may permit a much longer time limit. In any case if you return a thing after what is considered a “reasonable” time, then all you are legally entitled to is the cost of repair.
A．You should make clear what your legal position is before returning goods to the shops. B．Unfortunately, the law does not explain what is meant by “reasonable”. C. If all of these have been lost, you may have to rely on a witness. D．All you can do is exchange it after your friend or relative has gone home. E．It is unlike anything you would buy for yourself.
F．However, shoppers should remember this is a privilege, not a right.
G．Either the thing has to be broken or unsuitable for the job it was intended to do. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）

Possible version: Dear Wanghong,
How are things going? In your last letter you talked about your recent worry about your studies, mentioning that your deskmate often interrupted you by asking questions. Now I would like to share my opinion with you.
First of all, there is no need to worry about your studies. When you explain something to others, you can get a better understanding of it, which can improve yourself greatly. So it is good for you. Secondly, as we all know, everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Although your deskmate is not good at lessons, he might do well in other fields like sports or art. Therefore you can learn from each other. In addition, top students can help others gain confidence by helping them with their lessons, which may help develop a friendship that both of you will treasure all your life.
I hope my advice can help. And best luck with your learning.
Yours
Li Hua
