五、完形填空（共15小题；共22分）

    From Monday to Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and weekends they are free and     41     themselves. Some watch television or go to the movies, others     42     sports. This is decided by their own     43    .

    There are many different ways to spend our     44     time.

    Almost everyone has some kind of     45    : it may be something from collecting stamps to     46     model planes. Some hobbies are very     47    , but others don't cost anything at all. Some collections(收藏) are worth     48     of money, others are valuable(有价值的) only to their owners.

    I know a man who has a coin collection worth several     49     dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare(罕见) fifty-cent piece which     50     him $250!

He has almost 600 of them, but I wonder     51     they are worth any money. However,     52     my brother they are quite valuable.     53     else makes him happier than to find a new match box for his collection.

六、阅读理解（共14小题；共28分）

A

    I first started playing the piano when I was three. My parents are musicians, so they both encouraged me to do so. It was their dream, I think, to raise a child who could one day become a world-class pianist. So they asked an expensive personal teacher to teach me, and I practiced every day, sometimes for five or six hours at a time. Despite(尽管) the long hours and frustration(懊恼), I did enjoy it, especially at first, and I was good. According to my parents and my teacher, I was really excellent, and I was on the road to becoming a professional musician, just like my mother and father.

    The trouble was that my heart wasn't really in it. My real interest was something quite different—mathematics. Numbers were the things that really shone brightly in my mind. I told my parents I found more beauty in a mathematical equation(等式) than in a piano sonata. So when I went to college, I chose to study mathematics, not music. Then I got a job, working as an accountant(会计).

    Now I work with numbers every day. My parents couldn't understand, and even now I guess they are still angry with me. They say I wasted a special gift(天赋). But I still believe what I did is right for me.

A. help him with his school lessons

B. raise their son to be an excellent pianist

A. in trouble

A. his heart wasn't really in music

B. they didn't like the job of accountant

C. he wasted a special gift

D. he didn't realize his mistake

B

    Good morning. The program today is about music. The word "music" comes from the Greek word "muse". The Muses are the goddesses of the arts. The Music is only one of the arts. It is like the spoken language, but it uses sounds. Today's program brings together music from different concerts of the world. Who invented music? Who sang the first song? No one knows exactly the answers to these questions. But we know that music plays an important part in almost everyone's life. Babies and young children love to hear people singing to them. When they are a little older, they like to sing the songs they have heard. When children go to school, their world of music grows. In the middle grades, students take music lessons. When they reach high school, they become interested in listening to pop music.

    The records we have chosen for you today are from American country music, Indian music, pop music and so on. Music has meaning for everyone. It can make people happy or it can make them sad. In this program we shall study the language of music. We shall be trying to find out more about how music works. We shall try to find out how music says what people feel.

    Now, here comes the music today, I shall explain why they are all good music.

60. The first paragraph is mainly about the                 .

A. styles of music B. history of music

C. taste of music D. knowledge of music

61. Which is NOT the purpose of this music program?

B. To learn more about the music.

C. To give a complete background to the music.

C

    Last year in the UK at least 45 people died and 900 more were injured in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones. But many people continue to use them while driving even though it's dangerous.

    It is difficult to concentrate on (集中精力于) driving and talking at the same time. It can even be more dangerous than driving after drinking too much. It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.

    And talking isn't even the most serious problem. Texting is. An average text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone's screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make matters worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before.

    Using a mobile phone while driving puts others' lives at risk. No matter how well we drive, if another driver is not being professional or careful, we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish, careless and should have their driving licenses (驾照) cancelled.

    There is no need to use mobile phones while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble.

63. The underlined word "them" in paragraph l refers to "            "?

A. phone users B. mobile phones C. drivers D. cars

64. According to the passage, in what order do the following activities influence driving?

Dangerous→More dangerous→Most dangerous

A. drinking→talking on phone→texting

B. texting→talking on phone→drinking

C. talking on phone→texting→drinking

D. drinking→texting→talking on phone

65. New types of mobile phones make the driving problem worse because                 .

A. it will take longer to send text messages

B. people will want to talk on their phones more often

C. there will be more things for people to do with their phones

D. people think the new phones are easier and safer to use

D

    How much paper do you use every year? Probably(很可能) you can't answer the question quickly. In 1990 the world's use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kg of paper for each person in a year. The Chinese first made it from the wood of trees. It was made from the hair-look parts of certain plants. Five hundred years passed. There was a German named Schaeffer who found out that one could make the best paper from trees.

    After that, the forest countries of Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland and the United States became the most important countries in paper-making. Today, the paper made in Finland is the best in the world.

    When we think of paper, we think of newspaper, books and writing paper. But there are many other used. Each year, more and more .things are made of paper. For example, we can see paper cups, plates, and dishes in many places. Now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper.

    Paper can also be made into hats, clothes, shoes and so on. When you use them once, you throw them away.

    People have made paper boats (in some parts of the world, paper boats have already been used), but they haven't made paper planes or cars.

66. Which of the following is true?

A. In 1990 a person used about one kilogram of paper each year.

B. Not all countries use as much as 50 kg of paper for each person in a year.

C. A person in Germany found out that the best paper could be made from trees.

D. All of the above.

67. This passage gives us the idea that                 .

A. only the wood of trees can be used to make paper today

B. only about five to six countries can make paper from the wood of trees

C. the hair-look parts of certain plants disappear (消失) now

D. in some forest countries paper is mainly (主要地) made from trees

A. for a long time B. only once

C. for some times D. many times

69. The underlined word "they" in the last passage means                 .

七、短文7选5(5选5等)（共4小题；共8分）

The Living Machine

    Dr. Jack Todd is very interested in clean water.70.             so it's natural that he is the developer of a small and affordable system(系统) to clean wastewater. His "Living Machine" can clean wastewater in your home or in your business.

    John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington. He inherited $1,000,000 when he was 23. He didn't feel happy at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn't have to. John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He didn't tell any of his friends and gave $100,000 of his money to a charity that helped poor children to live better lives. Today he is 36, he still wears cheap shoes and clothes and owns a small car only, but he is much happier.

    Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world, $200 a month for each. The child does not receive the money in cash. The money pays for the child's school expenses, food, medical cars and clothing. John receives a report each year on the child's progress. They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.

    When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. “It was not anything special,” he said. “Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was helping, I did not know anything about the type of life they had.”

    Once John went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting. “When I met her, I felt it a very good plan. It brought me closer to the child in a way that giving money alone can not.” “I want to do everything I can. I will go on helping those children in need,” he added.
