　　Little Bit

　　“Meow, meow, meow,” is what I heard as I walked through the alley. I approached the noise and noticed a tail sticking out from under a piece of wood. Under the wood was a

　　36

　　black and white cat. I picked him up and

　　37

　　he must be freezing to death. I

　　38

　　home with the cat held in my jacket.

　　My new best friend, who soon became known as Little Bit, received his name because he was almost

　　39

　　when I held him in my hands. He stood about five inches tall. Little Bit’s small size had a great advantage — he

　　40

　　perfectly in the pocket of my jacket, which made

　　41

　　him everywhere very easy. Any time I was home, he wouldn’t leave my

　　42

　　. He was always eager to play with me. When I fell asleep at night, he would always

　　up around my head to ensure that I was warm.

　　44

　　my relationship with Little Bit. I lived at such a fast pace that I stopped

　　45

　　time for him. My free time was spent with my friends instead. I would come in the house on my phone and not

　　46

　　him at all. His meows became an annoyance to me, but it wasn’t his

　　47

　　that he wanted his best friend back.

　　Time had caused a

　　48

　　to Little Bit. His body began

　　49

　　down and by the time I realized something was wrong with him, he had already lost his balance. He lay there and looked at me, and

　　50

　　this day I still remember the

　　51

　　look in his bright green eyes. I took him to the vet (兽医), but there was nothing he could do. The last time I

　　52

　　him he wasn’t the same tiny cat I had found ten years before. Little Bit filled my arms and he was put to sleep that day.

　　Little Bit’s

　　53

　　made me realize how much he meant to me. He was always there for me when I needed him. I

　　54

　　our last years together and I feel sorry for not always being there for him. I will always

　　55

　　When expanded families—children, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles—lived in the same town and sometimes in the same house, a relative of the working parents took care of the children. But beginning with the Industrial Revolution, people moved away from farms and small towns to find better job chances in larger cities. Gradually nuclear families are often seen in the society, but there also appears the immediate family, with either the mother or the father living with the children because of divorce. Another variation is the mixed family, the result of a marriage between a previously married man and woman who combine the children from their former marriages into a new family.

　　Since 1950s and 1960s, a trend that has appeared is the sharing of child-care responsibilities between husband and wife. More and more women are working outside the home. Around 70 percent of women with children under 18 have other jobs besides that of mother and homemaker. Most are employed in traditional fields for females, such as sales, education, and service. Some are engineers, politicians, doctors, lawyers, and scientists. And at the end of twentieth century, even a few have begun to occupy vital positions in business, government, and banking, breaking through the so-called glass ceiling.

　　Money matters influence women to work. Some are employed full time, some part time, and some seek creative solutions such as flex-time work schedules and job sharing. Many are single mothers, in single-parent family, raising children by themselves. But in most cases, one income in the household is simply not enough, so both parents must work to support the family. The men are no longer the only breadwinners.

　　So who watches the children while the parents work? Answers to this question are varied. Some parents put children in day-care centers. Some parents put children in informal day-care centers in private homes. Companies and hospitals are realizing that providing day care at the workplace makes for happier and more productive employees. Some wealthy families can have a nanny, a woman who comes to care for the children in their own home. Many of these child-care workers are from other areas, e.g. South America and Eastern Europe.

　　From the last decade, the accessibility of technology—computers, faxes, teleconferencing—has made it easier for at-home workers to be constantly in touch. Will this new flexibility in the work force bring a positive change for taking care of children? Only time will tell.

　　59. What is an immediate family according to the passage?

　　A. An expanded family.

　　B. A mixed family.

　　C. A nuclear family.

　　D. A single-parent family.

　　60. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?

　　A. Women can get to the top positions easily.

　　B. Educated women are employed in many fields.

　　C. Women have more and more chances to work outside.

　　D. More and more women have children at very young age.

　　61. Employers make their employees more productive by ______.

　　A. putting their children in private centers

　　B. offering office equipments to workers

　　C. providing day care at the workplace

　　D. allowing them to work at home

　　62. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?

　　A. Who Takes Care of Children?

　　B. Why do Women Work Outside?

　　C. What Benefits Single Parents?

　　D. How do People Support Families?

　　C

　　Mark Rothko, one of the greatest painters of the twentieth century, was born in Daugavpils, Latvia in 1903. His family immigrated to the United States in 1913, after a 12-day voyage.

　　Mark moved to New York in the autumn of 1923 and found employment in the garment trade and settled down on the Upper West Side. It was while he was visiting someone at the Art Students League that he saw students painting a model. According to him, this was the start of his life as an artist. He was twenty years old and had taken some art lessons at school, so his initial experience was far from an immediate calling.

　　In 1936, Mark Rothko began writing a book, which he never completed, about the similarities in the children’s art and the work of modern painters. The work of modernists, which was influenced by primitive art, could, according to him, be compared to that of children in that “Child art transforms itself into primitivism, which is only the child producing a copy of himself.” In this same work, he said that “The fact that one usually begins with drawing is already academic. We start with colour.”

　　It was not long before his multiform developed into the style he is remembered for. In 1949 Rothko exhibited these new works at the Betty Parsons Gallery. For reviewer Harold Rosenberg, the paintings were unique and primitive. Rothko had, after painting his first multiform, separated himself from the world in East Hampton on Long Island, only inviting a very few people, including Rosenberg, to view the new paintings. The discovery of his works’ specialty came at a period of great sorrow: his mother Kate died in October 1948. As part of this new uniformity of artistic vision, his paintings no longer had individual titles. From this point on they were simply untitled, numbered or dated. However, to assist in distinguishing one work from another, traders would sometimes add the primary colours to the name. Additionally, for the next few years, Rothko painted in oil only on large vertical tents. This was done to surround the viewer, or, in his words, to make the viewer feel enveloped within the picture.

　　63. When did Rothko want to be an artist?

　　A. When he immigrated to the U.S.A.

　　B. When he watched students drawing.

　　C. When he moved to the Upper West Side.

　　D. When he joined the Art Students League.

　　64. What did Rothko think of modern art?

　　A. It could be produced by children.

　　B. It could be compared to child work.

　　C. It was a certain kind of primitive art.

　　D. It was academic from the very beginning.

　　65. Why does the author mention Rothko’s uncompleted book?

　　A. To prove Rothko’s concentration on painting.

　　B. To show Rothko’s research on the modern art.

　　C. To suggest Rothko’s unique personal painting style.

　　D. To explain the inspiration of Rothko’s painting style.

　　66. Rothko’s distinctive style ______.

　　A. took shape in 1948

　　B. was affected by Rosenberg

　　C. resulted from his boyhood experience

　　D. was rooted in the separation from the world

　　D

　　What exactly is intelligence? There aren’t any easy answers. Despite the progress that has been made in genetics and psychology, human intelligence has remained one of the most controversial areas of modern science，until now, that is, for the discovery of a gene(基因) linked to intelligence has made the experts think again.

　　Robert Plomin of the Institute of Psychiatry in London and his colleagues in the US have been looking into genetic make-up. From their research, they have discovered that a slightly different gene is more common in those with a high IQ. Plomin analyzed DNA from two groups of 51 children aged between 6 and 15. What he found was that the first group had an IQ of 136, putting them in the top 5% of the population, while the other group had an average IQ of 103. An analysis of their genes showed that 32% of children in the higher group had the gene in question, while only 16% in the second group did. However, there is a lot more research to be done, and Plomin himself is cautious at this early stage. He suggests that there are probably many genes that contribute to intelligence, rather than just one.

　　Several studies have shown a strong link between IQ and career success, although some psychologists remain unconvinced about this. Professor Michael Rowe, who has written a book called Genius Explained, is one of these. “The people with the highest IQs are not usually the ones who do best in their careers.”

　　Many psychologists now believe that when it comes to intelligence, IQ isn’t everything. Many alternative views have been put forward recently. One example is the idea of multiple intelligences, which was developed in the 1980s by Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner. This offers a much broader view than the IQ theory, including creativity and communication skills as relevant factors(因素) in intelligence.

　　Tony Buzan, brain expert and author of Master your Memory, is enthusiastic about this belief, arguing that true geniuses(天才) do indeed appear to combine high levels of each type of intelligence. He lists Alexander the Great, Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein as examples. At the same time, Buzan believes that everyone can develop their intelligence, only if they take the trouble to exercise their brain. Perhaps there’s hope for us all!

　　67. What is the topic of the passage?

　　A. The relationship between genes and intelligence.

　　B. IQ benefits a lot from high intelligence.

　　C. How to develop intelligence.

　　D. What makes intelligence.

　　68. Why does the author use data in Paragraph 2?

　　A. To make a suggestion.

　　B. To draw a conclusion.

　　C. To prove an idea.

　　D. To give an example.

　　69. What can we learn from the passage?

　　A. Robert Plomin confirms genes have something in common.

　　B. Howard Gardner thinks intelligence includes various factors.

　　C. Michael Rowe approves of a strong link between IQ and career.

　　D. Tony Buzan agrees geniuses exercise brain to improve intelligence.

　　70. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

　　A. The development of intelligence.

　　B. The idea of multiple intelligences.

　　C. IQ isn’t everything for intelligence.

　　D. Alternative views have been put forward.

　　第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）

　　根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。

　　The War Against Sand

　　Imagine living on the edge of a vast desert, which is moving quietly closer to your village every day and covering your fields. The desert is on the move. This is called desertification.

　　Desertification occurs in regions close to an already existing desert.

　　71

　　The first is over-use of water in the area. There is not enough water in any case, and if it is not carefully used, disaster can follow. As time goes on, water shortages make farming more and more difficult. In some places, locals can remember local lakes and marshes which were once the homes for all kinds of fish and birds.

　　72

　　Farmers leave the land, and fields are replaced by deserts.

　　The second cause is misuse or over-use of the land.

　　73

　　Ploughing(耕) large fields and removing bushes and trees means that the wind will blow away the soil. Once the soil is lost, it is hard to replace, and if there is rain, it has nowhere to go, and brings no benefit.

　　74

　　Every spring, the skies over some of eastern cities, thousands of kilometers away from the deserts, can be darkened by sandstorms. Dust from deserts can have a great effect on weather systems. While desertification is perhaps being partly caused by global warming, these sandstorms can make global warming worse by adding to what is known as the greenhouse effect.

　　What can be done to slow down or stop the process of desertification? A great deal of work is already under way. Obviously first steps are to find new water sources.

　　75

　　Some types of grass also hold the soil together, and stop the wind taking it. Without these efforts, it will be harder and harder to stop the world’s deserts in their tracks, and more and more farmers will give up and head for cities. The lesson to be learnt lies beneath the sand.

　　A. It generally arises from two related causes.

　　B. It is not only the farmers and villagers who suffer.

　　C. They have been completely buried by the sand now.

　　D. Scientists are doing the research on the cause of desertification.

　　E. They destroy the land, as the soil dries out and is then blown away.

　　F. Tree planting can help, by providing barriers between desert and rich field.

　　G. This means that the wrong crops are planted, and need more water than is available.

　　第一节 （共小题；每小题2分, 共0分）第二节 （共小题；每小题2分, 共0分）Last winter, we carried out an activity themed “Helping the Children in the Hope Primary School in Tibet”. In the class meeting, we watched CCTV news and learned about what the life of the children there was like and all of us were shocked. So we decided to do our bit. We put up some posters on the school notice board and gave out the handouts to the schoolmates. The next day, many students took part in the donation on the playground. Some donated their pocket money and some brought their new clothes and quilts. After that, we went to the post office to mail the donations to Tibet. We are more than glad to have such kind of activities, for we not only set up the bridge of friendship with the children in Tibet but also show our love to the children there.

　　开放作文（15分）

　　One possible version:

　　As can be seen in the picture, a boy is sitting in front of a scale. He’s put one box on one side of the scale, two on the other, making the scale lose its balance.

　　The picture seems to convey us a message that laying much more emphasis on one thing will probably prevent the development of other things. Just like the scale in the picture, one extra box on one side will definitely result in unbalance. There are many similar phenomena in our life. Take us high school students for example. Faced with the pressure from school work, like the boy putting one extra box on one side of the scale, we tend to spend much more time on our studies than on the physical exercise. However, how can one keep healthy without enough exercise? In my opinion, what our society needs is that people develop both mentally and physically. To achieve success in the future, we should always keep our development balanced.
