29、take. It is 56 by a teacher for students to complete on the teachers schedule, with the teachers requirements in mind So to have the fight 57 Will be of great help. Homework means business and the student should expect to work on it seriously. As in the work place, careless efforts and lack of self-

30、discipline are likely to make the 58 impression.Teachers assign homework for 59 purposes. In some cases, teachers seek to review and solidify material being covered in class; homework is also designed to 60 student learning beyond class lessons. As students mature, teachers often assign homework nig

31、htly in several subjects. Homework is also used to prepare students to handle new work, 61 in the ease of summer reading. Increasingly, school reforms call for homework to take the form of course projects, thus increasing its 62 to “real-life” job-related activity.Like jobs, homework can be appealin

Each passage is followed by several question

35、s or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and DChoose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read（A）Saturday 28 April, 2001: Dennis Tito was setting off on his holiday. Mr. Titos journey was certainly unusual! S

36、o was the transport he chose, and the price of his trip.The 60-year-old multi-millionaire from New York was sitting on board a Russian spaceship. He was on a journey to the International Space Station. It might have been a routine trip for the two astronauts who were traveling with him, but for him

37、it was certainly no ordinary journey. Dennis Tito was the first tourist ever in space, and he had paid the sum of $20 million to go there. As the spacecraft left the earths atmosphere, Tito drank a glass of fruit juice to celebrate and looked down at the earths blue-green surface. Two minutes later,

38、 he was sick. Luckily it was only a minor problem. He soon recovered, and from then on enjoyed a smooth journey. When he arrived at the space station, there was a big smile on his face. “A great trip!” he commented “I love space.”For a long time space travel was something for heroes. But all this is

39、 going to change. Companies like ProSpace are investing large amounts of money in space travel. They want space and space travel to belong to the public, not just governments. There are other plans, like voyages through space from one side of the world to the other. Maybe we will be able to depart f

40、rom New York at nine oclock in the morning, and arrive an hour later- in Tokyo! Such a schedule would allow the business traveler to return to New York on the same day, and still have eight hours for a meeting! 65Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?ABusiness Travelers BSpac

50、ove his attitude on certain subjects.（C）Making fists is relaxing. It dictates the shape of the immediate future; it calms you down (its OK, its on a list somewhere) and it makes you feel good when you cross something off 0ist-making is standard practice in therapy for depression). It might even help

51、 you to get things done too. The more you have to do, the more you need a list and few people with high-powered jobs get by without them. Women always think theyre better at lists than men. Men tend to have Tasks which they assemble into Action Plans whereas women just have lists of Things To Do. Ja

52、mes Oliver, psychologist, has created his own “time management matrix (模式)”. He writes a list of things to do and then organizes them into categories: things that have to be done straight away, other things that it would be good to do today, things that are important but havent got to be done immedi

53、ately and things that are less urgent but that he doesnt want to forget. “Using categories to order the world is the way the human mind works,” he says. “After that, you should divide things into levels of importance.” But he also warns, “If people get too absorbed in making fists, it doesnt work. T

54、hey have too many categories and lose their ability to decide which is the most important.”Its all a question of what works best for you, whether its a tidy notebook, a packet of Post-it notes or the back of your hand Having tried all these, student Kate Rollins relies on a computerized list, which

55、is printed out each morning. “My electronic organizer has changed my life,” she says. “Up to now, Ive always relied on my good memory, but now that Im working and studying, I find Ive got too much to keep in my head”So what are you waiting for? No, youre not too busy to make today the first day of y

56、our upgraded time-managed life. In fact, theres no better time titan the present to begin to take increased control of your work and life. So, get out your pencil and pen and make a list. 72The main purpose of making lists is to .Ahelp map out ones futureBdivide things into levels of importanceCtrea

57、t certain diseases such as depressionDorganize ones work and life reasonably73We can learn from the passage that .Agood memory helps in list makingBtoo much listing might be misleadingCwomen usually make a lot more lists than menDpeople with high-powered jobs make lists most74The word “categories” i

58、n paragraph 2 most probably has the same meaning as“ ”.AgroupsBportionsCitems Dareas75In this passage the author intends to .Asuggest a way of raising ones living standard Bintroduce some ways of business managementCurge people to develop the habit of listing Dwarn people not to rely on their memory

59、（D）“Racism (种族歧视) is a grown-up disease,” declares the saying on Ruby Bridges website along with a photo of Mrs. Bridge today, a 6-year-old girl four decades ago. In the photo, she is walking up the steps of the William Frantz Public School in New Orleans, a little black girl accompanied by two offi

60、cers who protect her on her way to school.Her name then was Ruby Nell. It was Nov. 14, 1960. She was the first black child to enroll at this all-white elementary school according to the court order to desegregate in New Orleans schools. Her story is moving - she was a very courageous child - and rem

61、ains a significant proof against intolerance (不宽容) of all kinds. Rubys photo brings out another powerful image on her website: Norman Rockwells symbolic painting for Look magazine on Jan. 14, 1964, “The Problem We All Live With.”Rockwell was an illustrator of exceptional skill and charm. He produced

62、 a vast number of unforgettable images over a long career, many of them involving children. His American kids are innocent and appealing, but often, at the same time, decidedly naughty. His method was to photograph his models, and the resulting paintings were photographic But it is revealing to see

63、how the artist slightly changed facial expressions from photo to oil painting in order to make his paintings communicate with the viewer. Communication, even persuasion, lay at the back of his work; this was art for effect.“The Problem We All Live With” belongs to Rockwells later work, when he began

64、 openly showing his strong belief in liberty. This is a highly persuasive image. Before he arrived at the final copy, one sketch (草图) shows the little girl closer to the two officers following her than to those in front. In the finished picture, the girl seems more determined, independent, and untou

65、ched The unfriendly tomatoes thrown on the wall are behind her now, and she, is completely unaffected76Ruby Nell was protected by officers on her way to school, because .Ashe was a little fighter against racismBshe was very young, short and timidCshe was the first black to study in an all-white scho

There is one extra heading which you do not need AWays to beautify eyesBProper use of eye contactCTechniques of sending eye s

69、ignalsDColours of peoples eyesEFunctions of different parts of the eyeFVariety of messages conveyed through eyes80The coloured part of the eye is called the iris. There are three basic eye colours-brown, blue and green. A few albino people have red or pink eyes, but these are very rare. Many people

70、believe that blue eyes are more delicate than brown eyes. In fact they are just as tough as brown eyes, although they. are more sensitive to light.81 We only see part of the eyeball, although the whole eye is as big as a table tennis ball. Light enters the eye through the pupil and passes through th

71、e lens. The lens focuses the light onto the retina at the back of the eye. The retina sends the signal to the brain along the optic nerve. The image on the retina is actually upside-down, but the brain corrects it. As we get older our eyesight becomes worse. This happens because the lens isnt as fle

72、xible as when we are young and the eye muscles are weaker.82Our eyes are the most important of our five senses. We receive 80% of our information about the world through our eyes. We also send signals to other people with our eyes. Some eye signals are unconscious. When we look at something nice, ou

73、r pupils get bigger. But when we dont like something, they become smaller. We cry when we are unhappy and sometimes when we are very happy. But we can also control some eye signals. For example, we can wink at someone or raise an eyebrow. Sunglasses make someone appear mysterious or dangerous, becau

74、se they hide that eyes and so we cant see the signals.83 We find large eyes more attractive. Children have large eyes in proportion to their heads. Cartoon characters always have large eyes, too. We cant actually change our eyes, but we can make them look bigger with make-up. Eye make-up isnt new. P

75、ictures in the Pyramids show that the ancient Egyptians both men and women-used it. False eyelashes can make eyelashes longer. Eye shadow on the eyelids can make the eyes look bigger and more dramaticGlasses can also make eyes look bigger.84We do not normally look into someones eyes for long, especi

76、ally when they are very close. Eye contact can be very threatening, so people only do it when they want to threaten someone. It is also very intimate. This is why lovers gaze into each others eyes. Its also why people dont look at each other in lifts.第II卷ITranslationDirections: Translate the followi
