8、 and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20 The English language we know today is about six hundred years old. For half that time, English was just the language of the people living in England. The modern English
9、language grew by about the year 1400. Now English is the most widely spoken language in the world. It is one of the working languages at international meetings, business, science and other fields.The differences between American English and British English are not very great. Written English is more
10、 or less the same in both Britain and America, though there are some spelling differences. For example, centre, licence, colour and travelled are spelt as center, license, color and traveled in American English. In America “cock, rubber, ill, holiday, lorry, post.“ are called “rooster, eraser, sick,
11、 vacation, truck , mail.“ But people from the two countries can still understand each other easily.There are only a very small number of differences in grammar between American English and British English. The most important differences arc in spoken English. For example, Americans pronounce “tomato
12、“ differently from English people.You may wonder “Which is correct?“ The answer is that it does not matter. You should speak either American English or British English. But do not try to speak both at the same time.21 When was modern English language grew?（A）About the 6th century.（B） before the 17th
13、 century.（C） Before the 14th century.（D）By the 15th century.22 Why does English widely used in the world? Because_.（A）it has the largest number of speakers in the world（B） it is spoken not only in Britain but also in America（C） it is one of the most important working languages in many fields（D）A, B
14、and C.23 Which sentence about the differences between British and American English is NOT true?（A）There are some small spelling differences.（B） Most of the words are the same.（C） There are quite a few differences in grammar.（D）There are lots of differences in spoken English. 24 _are the words in Ame
15、rican English.（A）Rooster, eraser, sick, truck , maill（B） Vacation, ill, travelled, licence, center（C） Mail, traveled, sick , color, license（D）Sick , truck , color, rooster, post24 Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence(真谛)of sportthe pursuit
16、of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself, he has to think only about winning. He is
17、 responsible for entire nations hopes, dreams and reputation.A good example is the World Cup soccer. Football is the worlds most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina(阿根廷 )to someone and the chances are that hell think of fo
18、otball. In a sense, winning the World Cup puts Argentina on the map.Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and
19、spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinian really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way bet
20、ter than all others? Not really, but its nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.25 In the second paragraph, the word“ summit“ means“（A）highest point（B） mountain top（C） prize（D）finish26 According to the passage, Argentina is world-famous because of its_.（A）imp
21、ortance at an sports（B） success in the football World Cup（C） contribution to the world（D）large number of sports fans and supporters27 What is the authors main purpose in the passage?（A）To prove that only sports can help country.（B） To show that Argentina is better than all others.（C） To compare foot
22、ball and other sports.（D）To explain the role of sport.28 What is the authors attitude towards international games?（A）Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.（B） Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.（C） Nation
23、s that win in international games prove the best on the sports field at least.（D）Nations that win the World Cup Soccer are regarded as best in all aspects.28 Advertisement can be thought of “ as the means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services“. Advertisement aims to increase peop
24、les awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message. The press offers a fairly cheap method, and magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local market. Television, althou
25、gh more expensive, can be very effective. Public notices are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumers interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertisement.There can be no doubt that the growth in advertisement i
26、s one of the most striking features of the Western World in this century. Many businesses such as those handling frozen foods, liquor, tobacco and medicines have been built up largely by advertisement.We might ask whether the cost of advertisement is paid for by the producers or by the customers. Si
27、nce every advertisement forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is the customers who pay for advertisement. However, if large scale advertisement leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customers pay less.It is difficult to meas
28、ure exactly the influence of advertisement on increasing demand. When the market is shrinking, advertisement may prevent a bigger fall in sales than would occur without its support. What is clear is that businessmen would not pay large sums for advertisement if they were not convinced of its value t
29、o them.29 Advertisement is often used to_.（A）serve customers（B） beautify the product（C） promote the sale（D）arouse suspicion30 The word“ media“ in the first paragraph includes_.（A）the press（B） television（C） radio（D）all the above31 Advertisement is mainly paid for by_.（A）the customers（B） increased pro
30、duction（C） the producers（D）reduced prices32 From the last sentence of this passage we conclude that_.（A）businessmen know well that advertisement could bring them more profits（B） advertisement could hardly convince people of the value of goods（C） business usually do not pay much for advertisement（D）a
31、dvertisement usually cost business large amounts of money32 Animals have different ways of protecting themselves against wintertime weather. Some animals grow heavy coats of fur or feathers, while others dig into the ground to find a warm winter time home. Some animals spend the winter in a deep sle
32、ep because by going to sleep they avoid the time of the year when food is scarce and the temperatures are low. Their sleep is known as hibernation.There is much about hibernation that puzzles scientists. For example, they are wondering how hibernation came into being. Some scientists have explored t
33、he possibility that animals release a chemical that starts them hibernating.One thing that scientists are certain about is that animals hibernate only when it is cold. Hibernation is a seasonal practice.Some animals that fall into a winter time sleep are not true hibernators because they spend only
34、a part of the cold season asleep. Bears, for example, can easily be awakened from their winter nap. They are not true hibernators.Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a particular animal is a true hibernator. For example, some mice hibernate, but others do not. The same is true of bats. So
35、me of them hibernate. Others do not.33 Hibernation is a seasonal practice. This means it_.（A）takes place only during a particular season（B） only a few animal do this practice（C） is a month practice（D）only happens when a species becomes over-populated.34 Some scientists believe that hibernation is st
36、arted by_.（A）a lack of food（B） calcium deposits（C） a body chemical（D）a lack of water35 The underlined word“hibernation“in Paragraph 1 means（A）a sleep to avoid drinking（B） a behavior in hot weather（C） a sleep in the cold season（D）an animal to practice sleep in winter36 The theme of the passage is tha
37、t_.（A）many animals die during hibernation（B） hibernation protects animals during the winter time（C） scientists feel puzzled about hibernation（D）some bats hibernate and others do not36 Researchers have found that REM(rapid eye movement)sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally
38、occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a persons sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical charges in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM(non-rapid eye movement)to
39、 REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.37 According to the passage, how often
40、 does REM sleep occur in one night?（A）Once.（B） Third.（C） Four or five times.（D）Uncoutable.38 The word“ deeper“ in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to“_“.（A）heavier（B） bigger（C） stronger（D）quicker39 Which of the following shows that a person is NOT dreaming in his sleep?（A）His eyes begin to move.（B）
