9、 wheeling a new bicycle. “This is for you!” he said.It took a few seconds for the love to sink in.

10、owed, gratefully, shook hands with Afzal and left.

In September 1966 Canadas population passed the 20 million mark. Most of this growth came from natur

14、al increase. The depression of the 1930s and the war had held back marriages and the catching - up process began after 1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the 1950s, producing a population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956. Undoubtedly, the good e

15、conomic conditions of the 1950s supported a growth in the population, but the expansion also derived （源自）from a trend toward earlier marriages and an increase in the average size of families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood at 28 per thousand, one of the highest in the world.After the peak yea

16、r of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued falling until in 1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline reflected the low level of births during the depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society. Young people were staying

17、 at school longer, more women were working, young married couples were buying automobiles or houses before starting families, rising living standards were cutting down the size of families. It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred

18、 all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution. Although the growth in Canadas population had slowed down by 1966 （the increase in the first half of the1960s was only nine percent）. Another large population wave was coming over the horizon. It would be composedof the chil

19、dren who were born during the period of the high birth rate before 1957.28. From paragraph 1 we know that in Canada during the 1950s .A. Fewer people married.B. The birth rate was very high.C. Economic conditions were poor.D. The population decreased rapidly.29. Which is not the cause of declines in

20、 population growth after 1957?A. Couples buying houses.B. Better standards of living.C. People getting married earlier.D. People being better educated.30. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Nine percent.B. Population wave.C. The first half of the 1960s.D. Populations slo

21、wing down.31. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Educational changes in Canadian society.B. Canada during the Second World War.C. Population trends in postwar Canada.D. Standards of living in Canada.DIn science, a theory is a reasonable explanation of observed events that are related. A theory

22、often involves an imaginary model that helps scientists picture the way an observed event could be produced. A good example of this is found in the kinetic molecular （分子运动）theory, in which gases are pictured as being made up of many small particles （微粒）that are in constant motion.A useful theory, in

23、 addition to explaining past observations, helps to predict events that have not as yet beenobserved. After a theory has been publicized, scientists design experiments to test the theory. If observations confirm the scientists predictions, the theory is supported. If observations do not confirm the

24、predictions, the scientists must search further. There the scientists must search further. There may be a fault in the experiment, or the theory may have to be revised or rejected.Science involves imagination and creative thinking as well as collecting information and performing experiments. Facts b

25、y themselves are not science. As the mathematician Jules Henri Poincare said: Science is built with facts just as a house is built with bricks, but a collection of facts cannot be called science any more than a pile of bricks can be called a house.Most scientists start an investigation by finding ou

26、t what other scientists have learned about a particular problem. After known facts have been gathered, the scientist comes to the part of the investigation that requires considerable imagination. Possible solutions to the problem are formulated （ 制 定 ） .These possible solutions are called hypotheses

27、 （假设）.In a way, any hypothesis is a leap into the unknown. It extends the scientists thinking beyond the known facts.The scientist plans experiments, performs calculations, and makes observations to test hypotheses. For without hypotheses, further investigation lacks purpose and direction. When hypo

28、theses are confirmed, they are incorporated （合并）into theories.32. According to paragraph 2, a useful theory is one that helps scientists toA. observe events.B. make predictions.C. publicize new findings.D. find errors in past experiments.33. Which of the following statements is true according to par

29、agraphs 3 and 4?A. Science is more than a collection of facts.B. Hypotheses are made before an observed event.C. Hypotheses are facts that are not proven to be true.D. A scientists most difficult task is collecting information.34. According to the last paragraph a major function of hypotheses is .A.

30、 confirming known facts.B. linking together different theories.C. providing direction for scientific research.D. communicating a scientists thoughts to others.35. What may be the best title of this passage?A. HypothesesB. ObservationsC. Scientific TheoriesD. Creative Thinking第二节（共 5 小题,每小题 2 分，满分 10

But up to one in four leaders struggles with listening skills, and its common to be a bad listener in day-to-day life.36. One answer is that many of us listen t

32、o respond rather than to hear whats being said. When were chatting with someone, were constantly thinking of what were going to say next instead of actually processing what the other party is saying.We do it because we want to be good conversationalists and avoid uncomfortable pauses （停顿） in thedisc

33、ussion. 37. The solution, according to psychologist Kenneth E. Miller, is very simple.Before you respond in a conversation, take a breath. Not an enormous, loud, obvious breath that screams out I am trying a new technique for better listening! No, just a normal, simple, ordinary breath. Thats it.38.

34、Yes, insists Miller. Hes noticed positive effects in everyday conversations. “I find I interrupt（打断）people a lot less often,” he reports. “In response, people seem more relaxed when we are talking.”Hes not the only one to notice a difference. Katie Heaney describes a sort of natural experiment that

35、shows the power of simply taking a breath before you respond. A friend who currently lives in France often pauses a lot before she replies, mainly because her French is only somewhat fluent. As a result, all her French friends tell her shes an amazing listener. 39. she writes.You dont have to be bar

36、ely fluent in a language to achieve “great listener” status. 40. Go ahead, give it a try and see if it works for you.A. Why do we struggle with listening?B. All you need is this simple technique.C. Could something so small make a difference?D. This is not something she hears much in English.E. But o

37、ften the result is the other person feels unheard.F. There are many ways to improve your listening skills.G. People can use the pause to dig deeper into their thoughts.第二部分完形填空(满分 30 分，限时 25 分钟)第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选岀可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I was excited to take m
