Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP

16、.ESP stands for Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.Here is an example: A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she shouted, “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the cha

17、ir!” Just then, a telephone came. The womans father had died of a heart illness. He died sitting in a chair.There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Heres another example one of hundreds of dreams that

18、have come true.A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “Theres room for one more.” The man felt the driver was Death, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, “Theres room for one more”. Then the man

19、 saw the drivers face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldnt get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into fires. Everyone was killed!Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others say that are ESP in true, from studies of ESP, we may some day l

20、earn more about the human mind.56. ESP lets people know about _.Atheir dream Bevents after they happenCevents before they happen Dheart illness57. The example of the man shows the ability to _.Aavoid traffic accidentsBknow the good and bad of a personCknow about the events happening some distance aw

21、ayDsense a danger that will happen later on58. The best title of this passage is _.ASixth Sense BThe Human MindCA Big Lie DA Terrible Dream B For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earths natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be mor

22、e dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house

23、has some kind of indoor pollution.People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is true that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made build

24、ing materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for buildinggreen plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution.

25、 They believe that a plants leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. S

26、tudies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.59. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful

27、than the air outside because _.Aindoor air pollution can often make people seriously illBman-made building materials give off dangerous gasesCthere may be more harmful gases outside the buildingsDthe air indoors is polluted, which is very harmful60. Some kind of indoor pollution can be foundin_every

28、 modern house Bevery old houseCall kinds of houses Dall kinds of offices61. The indoor air pollution is caused by _.Athe limit of the flow of air between inside and outsideBthe building way that the builders want to save energyCthe building things that are made of man-made materialsDthe man-made bui

29、lding materials and the limit of air-flow62. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that _.Aplants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoorsBplants may take in more oxygen which people needCplants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicalsDplants can make

30、our houses prettier and more healthyC People who are hit by lightning and survive often have long-term effects. These may include memory loss, sleep disorders, muscle pain and depression. Experts tell people to seek the safety of a building or a hard-top vehicle any time they hear thunder, even if i

31、t is not raining. They say lightning can strike as far as sixteen kilometers from any rainfall. Lightning can travel sideways. And at least ten percent of lightning happens without any clouds overhead that you can see. People who are outdoors should make sure they are not the tallest thing around. B

32、end low to the ground, but do not lie down. And do not stand near tall object. Get away from water and anything made of metal. A car is safe, but dont touch any metal inside. Safety experts say people in buildings should stay away from anything with wires or pipes that lead to the outside. The Natio

33、nal Weather Service says if you plan to disconnect any electronic equipment, do so before the storm arrives. Do not use a wired telephone. Do not use water. All these can carry electricity.Some people think a person struck by lightning carries an electrical charge afterward. Experts say this is not

34、true. It is safe to begin emergency treatment Each year about four hundred people in the United States are struck by lightning. Last year forty four people died. The average is close to seventy. The National Weather Service says that is more than the number of people killed by severe storms.63. Acco

35、rding to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Lightning can happen even if there is no cloud.B. Lightning cant strike very far.C. Lightning cant travel sideways.D. Dont stay in a car when lightning happen.64. We can learn from the passage that_.A. its better to turn off any electronic equi

36、pment before the storm arrives.B. a wired telephone is not safe to use in rainy days.C. a person struck by lightning is said to carry an electrical charge afterward.D. severe storms kill more people than lightning does.65. The underlined word ”depression” probably means”_”.A. excitement B. a state o

37、f being forgettableC. silence D. a feeling of being sad66. The passage is mainly about_.A. where people should stay in case of lightningB. some common knowledge about lightning safetyC. how lightning travelsD. a report written by the National Weather Service D I had an experience some years ago, whi

38、ch taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by themselves. One January, I had to hold two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died “full of years”, as the Bible would say .Their homes happened to be near each other, so I pa

39、id condolence(吊唁)calls on the two families on the same afternoon. At the first home, the son of the deceased woman said to me, ”If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. Its my fault that she died. ”At the second home, the son of the

40、other deceased woman said, “If only I hadnt insisted on my mothers going to Florida, she would be alive today .That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate ,was more than she could takeIts my fault that shes dead.”You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Becau

41、se the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course-keeping mother at home, putting off the operation-would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The firs

42、t is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.The second element is the view that we are

43、 the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his need,an

44、d that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to his tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him，and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we don not completely outgrow that childish view tha

45、t our wishes cause things to happen.67.The author had to conduct the two womens funerals probably because_.A. he was minister of the local churchB. he wanted to comfort the two familiesC. he was an official of the communityD. he had great pity for the deceased68.People feel guilty for the death of t

46、heir loved ones because_.A .they cant find a better way of express their sorrowB. they have neglected the natural course of eventsC .they believe that they were the reasonD. the dont know things often turn in the opposite direction69.According to the main passage, the underlined part in Paragraph 4

47、probably means that_.A. everything in the world is predeterminedB. theres an explanation for everything in the worldC. the world can be interpreted in different waysD. we have to be sensible in order to understand the world70.Whats the main idea of the message?A .Life and death is an unsolved myster

48、y.B. Never feel guilty all the time because not every disaster is our fault.C Every story should have a happy ending.D. In general, the survivors will feel guilty about the people who passed away.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，选出最佳答案。选项中有两项为多余选项。The speed and convenience of modern travel means that des

49、tinations that used to take a long time to travel to can now be reached quickly and easily. Even though” faraway” countries may now seem closer thanks to air travel, they may still be different from your home country. 71 Following are some fundamental rules that will make communication easier, and y

50、our trip more enjoyable.72 If you don not know the word for something in local language, or can not make yourself understood verbally, try drawing a picture, or pointing to an object. Avoid topics of conversation that you think may be sensitive. 73 .Feel free to show interest in the history and cust

51、oms of the place you are visiting, but dont ask too many questions about why things are done a certain way; you may offend the local people. 74 Kissing on the street or in public places is unacceptable behavior and should be avoided. If you are unsure of how to behave, watch the local people and cop

52、y them-if they dont behave in a certain way, you probably shouldnt either.Finally, if you are traveling on business, or plan to stay with a host to family, and you wish to take a gift, do some research. 75 .
