i get to the post office?”foreign tourists are often confused in japan because most streets there dont have names; in japan, people use landmarks (地標(biāo)) in their directions instead of street names. for example, the japanese will say to travelers, “go straight down to the corner. turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. the post office is across from the bus stop.”in the countryside of the american midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. there are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. in kansas or iowa, for example, people will say, “go north two miles. turn east, and then go another mile.”people in los angeles, california, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “how far away is the post office?” you ask. “oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” you say, “yes, but how many miles away is it?” they dont know.its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. what happens in such a situation? a new yorker might say, sorry, i have no idea.” but in yucatan, mexico, no one answers “i dont know.” people in yucatan believe that “i dont know” is impolite, they usually give an answer, often a wrong one. a tourist can get very, very lost in yucatan!21. when a tourist asks the japanese the way to a certain place they usually _.a. describe the place carefully b. show him a map of the placec. tell him the names of the streets d. refer to recognizable buildings and places22. what is the place where people measure distance in time?a. new york. b. los angeles. c. kansas. d. iowa.23. people in yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _.a. in order to save time b. as a test c. so as to be polite d. for fun24. what can we infer from the text?a. its important for travelers to understand cultural differences.b. its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.c. people have similar understandings of politeness.d. new yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.bheroes of our timea good heartdikembe mutombo grew up in africa among great poverty and disease. he came to georgetown university on a scholarship（獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金） to study medicine but coach (教練) john thompson got a look at dikembe and had a different idea. dikembe became a star in the nba, and a citizen of the united states. but he never forgot the land of his birth, or the duty to share his fortune with others. he built a new hospital in his old hometown in the congo. a friend has said of this good-hearted man: “mutombo believes that god has given him this chance to do great things.”success and kindnessafter her daughter was born, julie aigner-clark searched for ways to share her love of music and art with her child. so she borrowed some equipment, and began filming childrens videos (錄象) in her own house. the baby einstein company was born, and in just five years her business grew to more than $20 million in sales. and she is using her success to help others producing child safety videos with john walsh of the national center for missing and exploited children. julie says of her new program: “i believe its the most important thing that i have ever done. i believe that children have the right to live in a world that is safe.”bravery and couragea few weeks ago, wesley autrey was waiting at a harlem subway station with his two little girls when he saw a man fall into the path of a train. with seconds to act, wesley jumped onto the tracks, pulled the man into the space between the rails (鐵軌), and held him as the train passed right above their heads. he insists hes not a hero. he says: “we have got to show each other some love.”25. what was mutombo praised for?a. being a star in the nba. b. being a student of medicine.c. his work in the church. d. his willingness to help the needy.26. mulombo believes that building the new hospital is_.a. helpful to his personal development b. something he should do for his homelandc. a chance for his friends to share his money d. a way of showing his respect to the nba27. what did the baby einstein company do at its beginning?a. produce safety equipment for children. b. make videos to help protect children.c. sell childrens music and artwork. d. look for missing and exploited children.28. why was wesley autrey praised as a hero?a. he helped a man get across the rails. b. he stopped a man from destroying the rails.c. he protected two little girls from getting hurt.d. he saved a person without considering his own safety.ctom was one of the brightest boys in the year, with supportive parents. but when he was 15 he suddenly stopped trying. he left school at 16 with only two scores for secondary school subjects. one of the reasons that made it cool for him not to care was the power of his peer (同齡人) group.the lack of right male (男性) role models in many of their lives at home and particularly in the school environment (環(huán)境) means that their peers are the only people they have to judge themselves against.they dont see men succeeding in society so it doesnt occur to them that they could make something of themselves. without male teachers as a role model, the effect of peer actions and street culture (文化) is all-powerful. boys want to be part of a club. however, schools can provide the environment for change, and provide the right role models for them. teachers need to be trained to stop that but not in front of a childs peers. you have to do it one to one, because that is when you see the real child.its pointless sending a child home if he or she has done wrong. they see it as a welcome day off to watch television or play computer games. instead, schools should have a special unit where a child who has done wrong goes for the day and gets advice about his problems somewhere he can work away from his peers and go home after the other children.29. why did tom give up studying?a. he disliked his teachers. b. his parents no longer supported him.c. its cool for boys of his age not to care about studies.d. there were too many subjects in his secondary school.30. what seems to have a bad effect on students like tom?a. peer groups. b. a special unit. c. the student judges. d. the home environment.31. what should schools do to help the problem schoolboys?a. wait for their change patiently. b. train leaders of their peer groups.c. stop the development of street culture. d. give them lessons in a separate area.32. a teachers work is most effective with a schoolboy when he _ .a. is with the boy alone b. teaches the boy a lessonc. sends the boy home as punishment d. works together with another teacherestop spamwhen i first got an e-mail account ten years ago, i received communications only from family, friends, and colleagues. now it seems that every time i check my e-mail, i have an endless series of advertisements and other correspondence that do not interest me at all. if we want e-mail to continue to be useful, we need specific laws that make spamming (發(fā)送垃圾郵件) a crime.if lawmakers do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse. computer programs allow spammers to send hundreds of millions of e-mails almost instantly. as more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual (個(gè)人的) e-mail boxes are often flooded with spam e-mails. would people continue to use e-mail if they had to deal with an annoying amount of spam each time?this problem is troubling for individuals and companies as well. many spam e-mails contain computer viruses that can shut down the entire network of a company. companies rely on e-mail for their employees to communicate with each other. spam frequently causes failures in their local communications networks, and their employees are thus unable to communicate effectively. such a situation results in a loss of productivity and requires companies to repeatedly repair their networks. these computer problems raise production costs of companies, which are, in the end, passes on to the consumer.for these reasons, i believe that lawmakers need to legislate (立法) against spam. spammers should be fined, and perhaps sent to prison if they continue to disturb people. e-mail is a tool which helps people all over the world to communicate conveniently, but spam is destroying this convenience.33. what does the underlined word “correspondence” in the paragraph 1 probably mean? a. messages b. ideas c. connections d. programs34. according to the text, what is the major cause of the flooding spam? a. companies rely on e-mail for communications.b. more people in the world communicate by e-mail.c. many computer viruses contain spam e-mail.d. more advertisers begin to promote sales through spam.35. what is the purpose of the text?a. to inform b. to educate c. to persuade d. to instruct第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。if you do not use your arms or your legs for some time，they become weak；when you start using them again，they slowly become strong againeverybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning the fact. 36 when someone says that he has a good memory，he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciouslywhen someone else says that his memory is poor，he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong 37 one of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day. if a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. 38 , many of us think that his parents are to blame，or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms or legs that were weaknot all of us can become extremely clever; but all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same meanspractice. have you ever found that some people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? 39 of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things；they cannot write them down in a little notebookthey have to remember dates，time and prices, names，songs and stories；so their memory is the whole time being exercised 40 ，learn from the poor：practise rememberinga. what do you think of it?b. yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same wayc. but if he tells us that he has a poor memory d. so if you want a good memorye. when someone else says that he is poor in the healthf. why is this?g. the position is exactly the same as that of two people.第三部分 英語知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）i was a single parent of four small children, working at a
