It is interesting to notethat it has long been called a “fly-whisk”. Early fans were sometimes mentioned inroyal wills as tools used to dr

29、ive the flies away from the kings table.Women in Europe found fans useful in romance. A pair of eyes above a beautiful fan went straight to a mans heart. A quick movement of the fan, or of the eyelids at the right time, carried a message only love could understand.But fans also have had their secret

30、 plan. Marat, the French revolutionary leader, was killed in his bath by Charlotte Corday who held a fan to hide the knife with which she stabbed him. Old pictures show fans being used to hide a letter, to mask a face, and to cover a whisper.King Louise XVI of France carried a great feather fan, as

31、did many men of his court. Only in recent years did the fan become a womans implement.Fans were used, too, to dramatize (呈现) news; some showed the latest balloon flight, a new play, a leading person. They have figured in the worlds great plays and books. Shakespeare talks of fans, while in the Arabi

32、an Nights, in the tale known as “The Sleeper Awakened”, it is told that about Hassan sat at a fine dinner table where he was fanned by seven beautiful women with feather fans.The Arabians, who had fans for 2,000 years, used to place religious writings on them. And school boys in Japan wrote notes on

33、 them. Japans iron-and-leather fans were useful, in emergency, as weapons of defense! In India, fans have been held in respect-along with umbrellas.But men seemed to have overlooked one great value in their fans: therapy ( 治疗). Nothing is more refreshing to tired men, women and children than a breez

34、e (gentle wind) across the face. Men discover this when they turn their face to a breeze on a hilltop, a cooling wind across a desert on a hot day. It brings new heart, new vigor, new courage. So, in a small but important way, mankinds fans have helped him for thousands of years.56. Romantic women i

35、n Europe used their fans to_. A. cover a whisper B. carry a message of love C. hide a knife D. mask a face57. “They have figured in the worlds great plays and books .” the underlined sentence can be the closest in meaning to the following statement _.A. the characters in the worlds great literary wo

36、rks have become famous.B. the worlds great literary works have appealed to the public because of the fansC. the fans have appeared in the worlds famous literary works.D. the fans in the world famous literary works are unimaginable to people.58. The underlined word “implement” in paragraph 4 may refe

37、r to_. A. a musical instrument B. an example C. a tool D. an image59. What, according to the writer, is the one great value of the fan? A. Healing power B. Emergency C. Umbrella D. sending a message60. It can be inferred that fans_. A. have lost their values B. are more important than ever before C.

38、 will be still of help for man D. will be ignored in the near future. BHow soon will it be before robots become so intelligent that they will be able to do jobs which at the moment only human beings can do, such as teaching languages or looking after patients in hospital? Some experts believe this w

39、ill happen within 20 years while others disagree.One London company, UAS(Universal Automated Systems), has already developed machines that can be used as “home-helps” for old people unable to look after themselves and who are living on their own or in special homes. These machines can now do such th

40、ings as cook eggs and clean the floor, and the company says that future models will accept simple voice instructions and be controlled by a “brain” that is the same with of the latest IBM microcomputer. The director of UAS, Mr. Henry Jeffries, believes that in the next five to ten years companies wi

41、ll have developed even more advanced robots for use in industry. By the time, it is likely that they also have begun to sell new forms of these machines into ordinary homes. Robots can do a wide range of household tasks, such as preparing meals, washing dishes, cleaning the house and so on. By then,

42、 the price of such machines may have come down to as little as $1,000.But Dr. Sandra Lomax, who has done research into artificial intelligence at Sussex University and MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) believes we have a long way to go before we can develop truly intelligent machines.“Prep

43、aring an omellette may seem easy enough. But suppose one of the eggs has gone bad. Even the most intelligent robot would probably still use it. If something slightly unusual needs doing, something that requires even a little bit of ordinary human imagination, a robot is useless. They need programmin

44、g for even the simplest of tasks and are incapable of learning from experience. And teaching a robot how to recognize a bad egg is far more difficult than teaching it to prepare the omellete the egg goes into,” she says.61. Up to now, robots that have been developed are_.A. as intelligent as manB. n

45、ot as intelligent as manC. more intelligent than man D. capable of doing things that require unusual human imagination.62. Dr Sandra Lomax thinks that_.A. we will soon be able to develop truly intelligent machines.B. we will be able to program a robot to learn from experience.C. no robot will ever b

46、e able to prepare an omelette.D. making an omlette is much easier for a robot than recognizing a bad egg.63. A robot can do the following household tasks EXCEPT_.A. washing dishes B. cleaning the houseC. preparing an omelette D. telling a bad egg from good ones64. The director of UAS believes that i

47、n the next five to ten years new forms of machines will_.A. cost much less than $1,000.B. be used more in ordinary homes than in industry.C. be very much cheaper than today.D. be widely used in almost every household 65. The main idea of the passage is _.A. robots have already been used as “home-hel

48、ps” for old people.B. robots can be used both in industry and at home.C. robots have to be programmed to do the simplest of tasks.D. scientists differ in opinion as to when truly intelligent robots can be developed.CEvery couple who goes to the altar（圣坛）believes that they will make that trip only on

49、ce in their lives. They want the day to be perfect, and they are asking for much more than good weather. They want the most beautiful clothes, the freshest flowers. Moreover, her family who will foot the bill is not in any mood to economize.A quick look at any bride magazine will find that plenty of

50、 attractive goods and services compete for a share of the wedding budget. Besides the obvious choices of rings, dresses, flowers, and photos, there are the less obvious expenses: a large cake, a prepared and big dinner, a reception, music for both the ceremony and reception, tips, and even napkins a

51、nd matchbooks printed with the couples names and wedding date.As the arrangements are generally complicated, there are plenty of services that can be hired to help with the planning carrying out every aspect of the wedding: planning the photos, selecting the wedding rings, choosing the flowers, pick

52、ing the honeymoon spot, and so on. One magazine lists over 350 such pamphlets published of course by businesses that have something to offer. Considering that weddings do more than 12 billion dollars worth of business annually in the US alone, such activity isnt surprising. What is surprising is tha

53、t no one company dominates（主导）the industry. It seems that when people plan for a day as special to them as a wedding, they resist standardization. They turn instead to the small local suppliers known to them and their friends. Family members or friends often serve as photographers, and musicians. Th

54、is not only helps bring the wedding cost down, but makes it more personal.What about the couple that doesnt want to take in this billion-dollar industry? They can go to the city hall and get married for less than the price of a hamburger.66. Which of the following can best replace the phrase “foot t

55、he bill” in paragraph 1?A. play football B. bring the billC. approve the bill D. pay the bill67. According to the passage, if a couple gets married in the city hall, they will_.A. believe that they will make this trip only once in their lives.B. have to ask their families and friends to help.C. have

56、 to buy a hamburger.D. save a huge amount of money.68. A bride magazine is one _.A. in which goods and services needed for weddings are offered for brides to chooseB. in which all kinds of bride pictures are shown to attract young couplesC. which contains a lot of bride storiesD. which is bought by

64、t in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book lover, or merely there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book w

65、ith an attractive dust jacket is irresistible (不可抗拒), although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you end up with a rather dull book. You soon become absorbed in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must

66、dash off to keep some forgotten appointment without buying a book, of course. This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop, no assistant w

67、ill approach you with the inevitable (不可避免的) greeting: “Can I help you, sir?” You neednt buy anything you dont want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished looking through the bookshelves. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course, you may

68、 want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led you there, the assistant should retire carefully and look as if not interested in selling a single book. You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking fo

69、r a book on, say, ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best selling novel and perhaps a book about brass rubbing something which had only slightly interested you up till then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well written and part of the text you read pro

70、ved so interesting, that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section. Booksellers must be both long-suffering and indulgent (放任).73. You may spend too much time in a bookshop b

71、ecause_.A. the dust-jackets are very attractiveB. you start reading one of the booksC. you can partly become aware of your surroundingsD. you have to make sure you dont buy a dull book74. In a good bookshop an assistant should_. A. find an opportunity to avoid the realities of everyday life B. get c

72、lose to a customer with an acceptable greeting C. offer you his help only when you have finished looking through the bookshelves D. remain a distance from a customer and look as if interested in selling a book75. Why does the author think it is dangerous for people to go into a shop looking for a bo

73、ok on ancient coins and to come out carrying one on some other topics?A. Because he or she thinks you should choose your book carefully and make a final decision.B. Because he or she thinks getting a book from a bookshop without any specific purposes can cause a loss of your money as well as your ti

74、me.C. Because he or she thinks a copy of the latest best selling novel or book is worth the price but not easy to bring it home.D. Because he or she thinks the shop assistant approaches a booklover close enough and brings about a suspicion（怀疑）from the customer.第二卷 （ 两部分，共35分）第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文
