A
There have been many great inventions, things that changed the way we live. The first great invention was one that is still very important today-the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distances.
For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that had as much influence as the wheel. Then in the early 1800’s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn"t have to explore much any more. They began to work instead to make life better. In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the electric light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today. The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions: the helicopter in 1909, movies with sound in 1926, the computer in 1928, and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wear.
The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live longer lives. By the 1960’s most people could expect to live to be at least 60. By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions went on to be made. But man now had a desire to explore again. The world was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the USA took a step. And then China has made her steps into space.
In 1969 man took his biggest step away from earth. Americans first walked on the moon. This is certainly just a beginning though. New inventions will some day allow us to do things we have never dreamed of.
36. This passage talks mainly about _________.
A. why cars were very important B. when electric light was invented
C. which country made the first step into space D. how inventions influence people’s life
37. In 1800’s, people began to work to make_________.
A. explorations B. life better C. discoveries D. a trip to space
38. Nylon came out nearly at the same time as _________.

39. People can live longer lives because _________ to help people cure diseases have worked very well.
A. doctors B. new ways C. medicines D. new hospitals
40. Man didn’t have a desire to explore a lot _________.
A. at the beginning of the 1800’s B. in the 1960’s
C. since the 1900’s D. from the 1800’s to the 1960’s

How does a place become a World Heritage Site ( 世界遗产 ) ? It takes a lot of people to decide.
1 ) If a country wants one of its places to be on the World Heritage List, it has to ask UNESCO. The place must be important and special. UNESCO put the Great Wall on the list in 1987 because, it said, it was a great part of Chinese culture and beautifully made to go with the land. When a country asks, it must also make a plan for taking care of the place.
2 ) The World Heritage Committee of UNESCO talks about different places and decides whether to put them on the list. The committee meets every June. Many experts help the committee to decide.
3 ) After a new place goes on the list, UNESCO gives money to help keep it looking good. If a place is in serious danger, it may be put on the list of World Heritage Sites in Danger. UNESCO gives special care and help to those places.
4 ) Countries have to give UNESCO regular reports about places on the list. If UNESCO thinks a country isn’t taking good enough care of a place, the site will be taken off the list.
41. The passage implies that ________.
A. becoming a world heritage site takes hard work.
B. a place with beautiful scenery is often on the World Heritage List.
C. a place which was taken good care of is often on the World Heritage List.
D. the Great Wall became a World Heritage Site for its history.
42. If a place successfully becomes a World Heritage Site, the country ________.
A. can ask UNESCO for more money and help
B. should continue to take special care of it
C. won’t take trouble of caring for it
D. will try to put it on the List of World Heritage Sites in Danger
43. The purpose of putting a place on the World Heritage List is ________.
A. to attract more tourists from other countries
B. to get more money and help from other countries
C. to have it taken better care of
D. to make it known to other countries
B
Brazil is a federation that consists of twenty-six states and one federal district. The biggest majority of Brazil’s population belongs to the Christian religion and almost all of them are Catholics. This is something Brazil inherited(继承) being Portugal’s colony(殖民地).
Historically, the country was a colony claimed by people from Portugal and this made Portuguese the official language. The Portuguese reached Brazil in 1500 and until that moment it was inhabited by semi-nomadic(半游牧的) people. The Portuguese changed Brazil into a country of slaves until 1800, when Maria I of Portugal came to live to Brazil. The Queen did not stay long in Brazil, but during the 20 years of royal presence a lot of changes occurred: commercial ports to United Kingdom were opened; Brazil stopped being isolated(孤立) from other countries. So at the moment of getting the independence on the 7th of September, 1822, Brazil already had the potential to develop. The Brazilian Empire, Pedro I, abolished slavery in 1888 in the face of Princess Isabel. A lot of European people started coming to Brazil and the industry of the country started working. In the 19th and the 20th century as it has been said above foreign people immigrated(移民) to Brazil and basically 5 million European and Japanese people became the residents of Brazil. The beginning of the 20th century was especially marked by the immigration of a lot of Asian people: Japanese, Korean and Chinese immigrants. As a matter of fact Japanese people do not immigrate a lot, and the fact that the Brazilian-Japanese people are the largest Japanese minority in the world does astonish greatly.
The majority of the cultural inherits of Brazil are actually Portuguese, due to the fact that Brazil was Portugal’s colony for a very long time. The southern states mainly consist of European population and the north and the northeast consist of a mixed population including Africans, Amerindians and Europeans. Most of this population is Roman Catholic. No other country in the world has the same amount of Catholics. The modern tendency of Brazil is the growing number of people calling themselves Protestants. Around 7.4% of the population don’t believe any god. Some Brazilians, especially in the northern states are mixed Africans who prefer following the traditional African religions. Only 1.8% of the population chose Buddhism, Islam or Judaism.
Though Brazil always tried to maintain democracy, it was failed several times by the dictatorship(独裁) of Getulo Vargas. This fact could not affect the political situation in the country.
61. Brazil was ruled by Portuguese about ______.
A. 22 years B. 300 years C. 322 years D. 328 years
62.Who might block the development of Brazil?
A. Maria I B. Pedro I C. immigrants D. Getulo Vargas
63. The writer mainly tells us the ______ of Brazil in the passage.
A. religion B. history C. culture D. political situation
64.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Brazil was isolated from other countries when Maria I stayed there.
B. The industry of the country started working in 1888.
C. Brazil has the largest population of Catholics in the world.
D. Some people in Brazil don’t believe any god.
65. It can be inferred that Brazil is a country with ________.
A. western culture B. modern culture C. traditional culture D. mixed culture
PART FOUR: WRITING
Section A
Directions: Read the following passage and complete the abstract by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.
Unlike in our country, violence against women is very fierce in some western and African countries. The basic cause of it lies in discrimination, which refutes women equality with men in all spheres of life. Violence is both underlies in discrimination and serves to strengthen discrimination.
Violence against women is a display of historically unequal status of women compared to men, which have resulted into domination and discrimination against women by men and to the prevention of the full development of women. Violence against women is one of the important social mechanisms by which women are constrained into a subordinate position in comparison with men.
As violence against women is spread worldwide, many women are targets because of their ethnicity, class, sexual orientation or disability status.
Many women think that the psychological consequences of abuse are even more dangerous than its physical effects. The experience of abuse often shakes women"s self-esteem (自尊) and puts them at great risk of a number of mental health problems, such as:
Depression is becoming broadly recognized as a main health problem in the world. Women who are abused by their partners suffer more depression, anxiety, and phobias than women who have not been abused, according to studies in Australia, Nicaragua, Pakistan, and the US.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a strong anxiety disorder that can happen when people go through or witness a traumatic event in which they feel disappointed and helpless or fear death or injury. The symptoms of PTSD contain mentally reliving the traumatic event by means of flashbacks; avoiding anything that would remind one of the events; experiencing discomfort in sleeping and concentrating; and being easily alarmed or frightened.
The severe violence is also likely to lead to suicide. Some women kill themselves or try to do so. Researches from some countries, including Sweden, and the US, have displayed that domestic violence is closely connected with suicide. Battered women who have PTSD symptoms prove to be most likely to try suicide.
Abused women are more likely than other women to misuse alcohol and drugs.
When a person"s everyday life functioning or life alternatives continue to be influenced, a post-traumatic stress disorder may be the problem, requiring professional treatment.

I came to study in the US last fall. My life had been quite 1 since I arrived at
Andover. Although I had quite a few extracurricular (课外的) activities, I hadn’t taken any official leadership position.
This 2 changed when I received an e-mail from Ms Griffith, my cluster dean (主
任), 3 that a few female DC Rep was needed. DC Rep 4 Discipline Committee Representative. 5 boarding school students break serious rules, like using 6 , getting drunk or cheating in the studies. The punishments given to such students are 7 by a DC Rep, a house counselor, two student representatives, the cluster dean. I was really interested in becoming a DC Rep for my cluster, Pine Knoll, 8 so were five other students. We had to hold 9 and Ms Griffith asked us to write 10 to be sent to everyone in Pine Knoll.
I thought hard about what to write. I didn’t want to make any 11 because they are difficult to keep. I didn’t want to say I was experienced, because I was not. So I started my speech by explaining 12 I wanted to become a DC Rep. “ I want to serve Pine Knoll and also learn how American boarding schools carry out disciplines,” I wrote 13 .
I made three 14 that said “ Vote For Teresa” and put them on every exit (出口处) of my dorm so that people would 15 my name when they went to vote.
Although I tried hard, I didn’t win the election, I was 16 . But my positive nature didn’t allow me to 17 for very long. I actually 18 when my friends tried to comfort(安慰) me. “Teresa, I’m sorry that you didn’t win the election,” they would say.
“ No, don’t be sorry for me. I am very happy to have taken part in the election.” I said.
It is true: the 19 is much more important than the result. I am surprised and happy to discover my hidden 20 .

A
When some plates of the earth move suddenly, an earthquake happens. Many earthquakes begin under the sea. In fact, earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth. They often happen near mountains.
During an earthquake, the shakings make rocks rise suddenly and even crack(断裂)open. Houses fall, people are killed or hurt, and sometimes the whole villages or cities are destroyed.
Can we do something to keep ourselves safe from earthquakes? Scientists have studied earthquakes and made maps that show“earthquake belts(带)”. In these belts, it’s possible for earthquakes to happen. In these areas we can build strong houses to fight against earthquakes.
In the future, scientists will be able to predict exactly(精确预报)when and where an earthquake will happen. They can also tell people what to do and how to do it.
1. It is said a large number of earthquakes often happen .
A. next to mountains B. in the day time C. on land D. at night
2. In the future we’ll be no longer so afraid of an earthquake .
A. because of a map showing the“earthquake belts”
