　　第一节: 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

　　A

　　Mr. Patrick was new to the school and to us. Even though he was a great teacher, he seemed rather like a character out of a horror movie. He didn’t look that bad, but somehow, he looked extremely scary to me.

　　Some kids began to believe that he was a murderer or a ghost; some believed he was mad and a few believed that he might have suffered a lot in his life. I was one of those ‘few’.

　　One day I gathered up my courage and headed towards the school garden. He was, as usual, sitting on a bench alone. I breathed heavily a few times and then walked towards him.

　　“How are you?” I asked with my voice crackling.

　　He managed to say, “Fine.”

　　“Well, good to know,” I tried to be happy.

　　“Hmmm…” was all I heard.

　　“What’s up with you?” then seeing a puzzled look on his face, I tried to be more formal and respectful. “I mean, why aren’t you like all other people in the school? Why are you always so quiet and sad? Why…”

　　“No dear, some things are better left unsaid,” he said gloomily.

　　“Oh no sir, nothing is better left unsaid. If you want to share your feelings with me and reduce the pain of your heart, you are free to do so. I promise I will never ever tell anyone.”

　　“With you? You are just a little girl; what will you understand?”

　　I was somehow offended but still I managed to persuade him, “So what, Sir? You see, if you tell me your problem, you will have a light heart and you will have the feeling that someone somewhere cares about you.”

　　“Oh okay, that was a very nice belief indeed; let’s take a walk and I will let you know everything.”

　　Soon after our little talk, there was a visible change on his face. Later that day in the class, there was a smile on his face.

　　C

　　Breathe, wave and smile. Along with more than 300 other seniors, I marched into the stadium on the afternoon of May 10. The audience burst into deafening cheers. The huge stadium shook with all the whistling and clapping.

　　It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage. And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the moment. Each deserved it. The seniors had been preparing for four years for this once-in-a-lifetime moment—the commencement.

　　Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening address. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in purple cap and gown.

　　Our principal, Mr. Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance(效忠宣誓).

　　Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches. The tears in some eyes convinced me that many had deep feelings about the occasion. It was as the class motto says, “Life brings us tears, smiles and memories. The tears dry; the smiles fade; but the memories last forever.”

　　Then came the core (核心) of the commencement. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest.

　　To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. A girl sitting next to me even started yawning. But it wasn’t boring for those receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives.

　　A new page in the book of that person’s life had turned. They were glimpsing their futures: futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which would take all of their courage.

　　62. What’s the article mainly about?

　　A. An American graduation ceremony.

　　B. The opening ceremony of a sports meeting.

　　C. A presentation of college diplomas.

　　D. A US college’s farewell party.

　　a. Diplomas were presented to graduates.

　　b. Students gave farewell speeches.

　　c. The US national anthem was played.

　　d. The principal gave a short, warm speech.

　　e. Seniors went into the stadium.

　　A. b-c-a-d-e

　　B. b-d-c-e-a

　　C. e-d-b-a-c

　　D. e-d-c-b-a

　　65. From the text, we can infer that_______.

　　A. foreign exchange students could get a diploma

　　B. a diploma guarantees a bright future

　　C. the ceremony symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in life

　　D

　　Are you a team person? Are you at your best as part of a small, tightly united group of dedicated workers? If so, the future may hold more for you than you think.

　　High technology, some predicted, would make team work a thing of the past. That’s happening in those areas of business and data processing where one person and a computer can replace a team of workers.

　　But, elsewhere, teamwork is very much alive. High technology has led to a new type of teamwork in a number of fields, including advertising, scientific research, engineering design, architecture and ocean exploration. Through computer networking, scientists, engineers and technicians at different locations---often thousands of miles apart---can work on the same project at once. They can exchange ideas, try out different designs and test their results.

　　Examples? An engineering team can now design and try out a robot system, a new manufacturing process, or an entire factory before it is built. An architectural team can do the same with a building or a bridge. A medical team can simulate (模拟) a dangerous operation before performing it on a patient.

　　Of course, computer–assisted team effort doesn’t end with investigation and simulation. It now usually continues into actual design, manufacturing and testing. “Computer–aided design (CAD) and computer–aided manufacture (CAM) are breaking down barriers between traditional design and manufacturing functions,” explains Dr. Prakash Rao, an engineering manager at General Electric. “Interdisciplinary teams and engineers follow a product from concept to production. Everything is interconnected like a network.”

　　Sometimes a computer–aided effort can extend beyond production. A team that produces robots may use them to explore space and ocean depth. For high–technology team work, the future seems limitless.

　　66. The underlined part “hold more” most probably means to

　　.

　　A. maintain more chances

　　B. give more rights

　　C. make more regulations

　　D. store more information

　　67. According to the passage, the writer believes that

　　.

　　A. teamwork requires more use of computers than that of human beings

　　B. teamwork will be completely replaced by computers

　　C. the concept of teamwork is still alive and no longer the same as the past

　　D. high technology would make teamwork a thing of the past

　　68 The examples given by the writer in Paragraph 4 serve

　　.

　　A. to prove high technology has a promising future

　　B. to explain his idea of new type of teamwork is reasonable

　　C. to show that it tends to be an end to teamwork soon

　　D. to indicate the computer—assisted team effort just means investigation and simulation.

　　69. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

　　A. Many fields of science and technology are now using computers effectively.

　　B. No details are given in the passage about barriers between traditional design and manufacturing functions.

　　C. Experts from different fields have to cooperate to develop a product from concept to production.

　　D. High technology is nothing but a new type of teamwork plus CAD and CAM.

　　70. The author’s attitude to towards the introduction of the computer to teamwork is of

　　.

　　A. objection

　　B. indifference

　　C. support

　　D. doubt
