On Liberty Island is a very special statue called Statue of Liberty. It is one of the most
16、 famous sights in the world.The Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France to the people of the United States. The statue was made by a French sculptor named Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. UThe inner support system was designed by Gustave Eiffel, the same man who made the famous Eiffel Towe
17、r in Paris./ULiberty, of course, means freedom, and the Statue of Liberty was given to the United States to celebrate the one-hundredth anniversary of U. S. independence from England. The statue was built in France, taken apart piece by piece, and then rebuilt inn the United States. It was opened fo
18、r the public on October 28, 1886.UAs you might expect, the statue is very big. Visitors can ride an elevator from the ground to the bottom of the statue./U If they want to, they can then walk up the 168 steps to reach the head of the statue where they can look out and enjoy the beautiful sight of Ne
19、w York.（分数：10.00）(1).A good title for this passage is _.（分数：2.00）A.Famous Sights in the WorldB.Liberty IslandC.The Statue of LibertyD.A Gift from France(2).The word “sight“ in the first para. Means _.（分数：2.00）A.a small present or giftB.a kind of postcardC.the power of seeingD.something that you can
20、see(3).The statue was built _.（分数：2.00）A.in FranceB.in the United StatesC.in EnglandD.on Liberty Island(4).We may conclude that the elevator does not _.（分数：2.00）A.go fast enoughB.cost lots of moneyC.go to the topD.both A B(5).The man who made the part of the statue that we can see on the outside was
21、 _.（分数：2.00）A.an unknown architectB.BartholdiC.EiffelD.both A BBPassage 2/BWithout proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become an
22、noyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the countrys economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country to keep the customs and beauty that attra
23、ct tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being of local inhabitants.UToo much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry./U This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is
24、 not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as
25、much as 50000 dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste and water. All of these
26、 support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the para. that goes before the para. ? _.（分数：2.00）A.It is extremely important to develop tourismB.Building road
27、s and hotels are essentialC.Support facilities are highly necessaryD.Planning is of great importance to tourism(2).Too much tourism can cause all the problems except _.（分数：2.00）A.a bad effect on other industriesB.a change of tourists customsC.overcrowding of places of interestD.heavy traffic(3).Not
28、enough tourism can lead to _.（分数：2.00）A.an increase of unemploymentB.a decrease in tourist attractionC.the higher cost of support facilitiesD.a rise in price and a fall in pay(4).Its good for local people to be well aware that tourism will _.（分数：2.00）A.use up a large amount of waterB.weaken their ec
29、onomyC.help keep their customsD.help improve their life(5).The word “handle“ in the last para. Most probably means _.（分数：2.00）A.carry awayB.pick upC.get inD.take downBPassage 3/BTime spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are book-lover or merely you are there to buy a book as a pres
30、ent. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust-jacket is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, a
31、s you might end up with a rather dull book. You soon become engrossed in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment-without buying a book, of course.UThis opportunity to escape the
32、 realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. /UThere are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander about these places to your hearts content. If it is a good shop, no assistant approach you with inevitabl
33、e greeting: “Can I help you?“ you neednt buy anything you dont want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course, you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led yo
34、u there, the assistant should retire carefully and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book.You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out with a copy of the lates
35、t best-selling novel and perhaps a book about brass-rubbing-something that had vaguely interested you up until then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you proved so interesting that you had to but it. This sort of thing can be very dange
36、rous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section.（分数：10.00）(1).“Dust-jacket“ in the first paragraph probably means _.（分数：2.00）A.a kind of clothesB.protecting paper cover of a bookC.book cover full of dustD.title of a book(2).You may spe
37、nd too much time in a bookshop because _.（分数：2.00）A.the dust-jackets of some books are very attractiveB.you start reading one of the booksC.it keeps raining outsideD.you have to make sure you dont buy a dull book as a present(3).In a good bookshop _.（分数：2.00）A.nobody takes any notice of youB.the ass
38、istant greets you in a friendly wayC.you feel as if you are in a music shopD.you find yourself satisfied with browsing(4).An assistants help is needed _.（分数：2.00）A.as soon as you have entered the shopB.before you start browsingC.only when you have finished browsingD.when you have finished browsing(5
39、).Picking up books that vaguely interest you can be dangerous because _.（分数：2.00）A.you may forget about the book you plan to buyB.you have to give up the best-selling bookC.it makes you break your appointmentD.it costs you too much money and timeBPassage 4/BMost episodes of absent-mindednessforgetti
40、ng where you left something or wondering why you just entered a roomare caused by a simple lack of attention, says Schacter. “Youre supposed to remember something, but you havent encoded it deeply.“Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact
41、on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and dont pay attention to what you did because you are involved in a conversation youll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrob
42、e. “Your memory itself isnt failing you.“ says Schacter. “Rather, you didnt give your memory system the information it needed.“Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. “A man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago,“ says Schacter, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mai
43、lbox.“ UWomen have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory relies on just that./UVisual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. “But be sure the cue is clear and available,“ he cautions. If you want to remember to t
44、ake a medication with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table-dont leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a that that you keep in a pocket.Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why you are there. Most likely, you were thinking about somethi
45、ng else. “Everyone does this from time to time,“ says Zelinscki. The best thing to do is to return to there you were before entering the room, and youll likely remember.（分数：10.00）(1).Why does the author think that encoding properly is very important? _.（分数：2.00）A.It helps us to understand our memory
46、 system betterB.It enables us to recall something from our memoryC.It expands our memory capacity considerablyD.It slows down the process of losing our memory(2).One possible reason why women have better memories than men is that _.（分数：2.00）A.they have a wide range of interestB.they are more reliant
47、 on the environmentC.they have an unusual power of focusing their attentionD.they are more interested in whats happening around them(3).A note in the pocket can hardly serve as a reminder because _.（分数：2.00）A.it will easily get lostB.its not clear enough for you to treatC.its out of your sightD.it m
48、ight get mixed up with other things(4).What do we learn from the last para. ? _.（分数：2.00）A.If we focus our attention on one thing, we might forget anotherB.Memory depends to a great extent on the environmentC.Reception helps improve our memoryD.If we keep forgetting things, wed better return to where we were(5).Whats the passage mainly about? _.（分数：2.00）A.The process of gr
