第一節(共15小題;每小題2分，滿分30分)
Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter "i" - and many other brands are following suit. The BBC's iPlayer - which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet -adopted the title in 2008. A lovely bear - popular in the US and UK - that plays music and video is called "iTeddy".
A slimmed-down version of London's Independent newspaper was launched last week under the name "i".
In general, single-letter prefixes (前綴) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use.
Most "i" products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independent's "i", it's no surprise that they've selected this fashionable name.
But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter "i". Why not use "a", "b", or "c" instead?
According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at King's College, London, "i" works because its meaning has become ambiguous. When Apple uses "i", no one knows whether it means Internet, information, individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. "Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didn't have one clear definition," he says.
"However, thanks to Apple, the term is now associated with portability (輕便) ."adds Thorne.
Clearly the letter "i" also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual.
Each person believes they have their own needs, and we love personalized products for this reason.
Along with "Google" and "blog", readers of BBC Magazines voted "i" as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade.
But as history shows, people grow tired of fads. From the 1900s to 1990s, products with "2000" in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern.
However, as we entered the new century, the trend inevitably disappeared.
1. People use iPlayer to __________.
A. listen to music B. make a call
C. watch TV programs online D. read newspapers
2. We can infer that the Independent's "i" is aimed at __________.
A. young readers B. old readers
C. fashionable women D. engineers
3. Nowadays, the "i" term often reminds people of the products which are __________.
A. portable B. environmentally friendly
C. advanced D. recyclable
4. The writer suggests that __________.
A. "i" products are often of high quality
B. iTeddy is alive bear
C. the letter "b" replaces letter "i" to name the products
D. the popularity of "i" products may not last long
B
In the story told by the Roman poet Ovid, Pygmalion is a sculptor who falls in love with a statue he has created. Bernard Shaw borrowed the theme for his play Pygmalion—later turned into the musical My Fair Lady--- in which Professor Henry Higgins changes the Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle, and loves her even as he teaches her how to speak proper English.
Psychologists, too, have picked up the theme, researching what they call the “Pygmalion effect”. The finding, as social psychologist Robert Rosenthal puts it, is that “what one person expects of another can come to serve as a self-fulfilling(應驗的) prediction.” Rosenthal and his coauthor Lenore Jacobson created the term to describe the amazing results of an experiment they carried out in a California school in 1965. Students took a test that was said to be able to identify “growth spurters”---those who were to make great progress academically. Teachers were given the names of pupils who were about to progress intellectually--- and sure enough, these students showed a significantly greater gain in performance over their classmates when tested again at the end of the year.
But here is the thing: the “spurters” were actually chosen at random. The only difference between them and their classmates, Rosenthal writes, “was in the mind of the teachers.” And yet the expectations held in the mind of the teachers can make a big difference.
Just how do high expectations promote greater achievement? It’s not some magical act. Rather, it is higher expectations that lead teachers to act differently in some special ways to encourage students. So by changing our behavior and believing our students have great potential, we can help our students realize their potential.
5. The author of the play Pygmalion got inspiration from ______.
A. the musical MY Fair Lady B. some psychologists’ research
C. a Roman story told by Ovid D. a professor’s love story in England
6. Why did the “spurters” make great progress in the experiment?
A. they were chosen at random
B. they were more confident than their classmates
C. they received high expectations
D. There was some magic in teachers’ behavior
7. The experiment conducted in 1965 ______.
A. is an example of the “Pygmalion effect” B. improved all the students’ grades
C. had normal results predicted by teachers D. identified growth spurters successfully
8. For whom was the text probably written?
A. Teachers B. Students C. Researchers D. Writers
C
Genetically Modified (GM) food is unfortunately becoming more popular amongst farmers and food processors. Crops are being genetically modified to resist insects, plant diseases, insecticides(殺蟲劑). Plants are also modified to look bigger and better. Unfortunately the end goal isn’t providing nutrition for people, it’s to increase profit margins and to make food look better. In fact many modern fruits and vegetables are twice the size of what they used to be while having far less vitamins, and not tasting good either. Now research is showing that genetically modified food might even be bad for you.
GM organisms are organisms that have genes inserted into their DNA in order to offer certain characteristics. In this way you can make it better, or make it last longer.
Jeffrey M. Smith has published a study about the dangers of GM food. It was discovered that when GM soy was fed to female rats they found that all their young died within 3 weeks compared to a natural 10% death rate. Their young were also born smaller and they later had problems becoming pregnant. A study of pigs found that they also became infertile(不育) after eating GM corn.
Many people are eating GM food without even realizing it. The solution to this problem is simple. Human beings existed in their current form for hundreds of thousands of years. For most of that time we ate a diet consisting of meat, fruit, vegetable, fish, eggs and nuts. This is our optimal diet which leads us to live a healthy and long life. But over the last 30 years North America has experienced diabetes, cancer and heart disease. All due to the misinformation provided by groups who work on behalf of the manufacturers of GM food. The way to avoid obesity, heart disease and cancer is by eating like our stone-age ancestors.
9. According to the author, what ultimately inspired the popularity of GM crops?
A. Rich nutrition. B. Unique taste.
C. High profits. D. Energy saving
10. What had we better do if we want to stay healthy according to the text?
Eat more fruit. B. Be vegetarians.
C. Eat more grains. D. Keep traditional diet.
11. The text is organized in the form of ________.
time and events B. cause and effect
C. reasoning and argument D. contrast and comparison
12. We can infer that the lobby groups (in Paragraph 4) are people who are ______.
A. scientists who give out false information because of carelessness
B. doctors who try to profit from patients who suffer from unhealthy food
C. workers who try to cheat customers for the benefits of food producers
D. agricultural technicians who are responsible for promoting new product
D.
LONDON (Reuters) — Quiet please — Britain’ s Queen Elizabeth is preparing to have her swans counted. Buckingham Palace has announced that the annual Swan Upping, a tradition dating back to the 12th century which involves a census of the swan population on the River Thames, will be conducted by the Queen’ s official Swan Marker from July 20 to 24. “With the assistance of the Queen’ s Swan Warden, Professor Christopher Perrins of the University of Oxford, the swans and young cygnets (小天鵝) are also assessed for any signs of injury or disease，” Buckingham Palace said in announcing the count. The process involves the Swan Marker, David Barber, rowing up the Thames for five days with the Swan Warden in traditional skiffs while wearing special scarlet uniforms and counting, weighing and measuring swans and cygnets. It may seem eccentric, but it is very important to the Queen, According to custom, Britain’ s sovereign owns all unmarked, mute swans in open water, but the Queen now exercises the right only on stretches of the Thames and its nearby tributaries. In medieval times, the Swan Marker would not only travel up the river counting the swans, but would catch as many as possible as they were sought after for banquets and feasts. This year, the Swan Marker and the Swan Warden are particularly keen to discover how much damage is being caused to swans and cygnets by attacks from dogs and from discarded fishing tackle (漁具). It is also an important year because Queen Elizabeth has decided to join her team of Swan Uppers for part of the census. She will follow them up the river and visit a local school project on the whole subject of swans, cygnets and the Thames. “Education and conservation are essential to the role of Swan Upping and the involvement of school children is always a rewarding experience，” Buckingham Palace said. can infer from the passage that the process of counting the swans ________. A. remains almost unchanged in the past years B. involves a lot of royal members C. sometimes lasts longer than before D. is always guarded by special soldiers h of the following is the main idea of the passage? A. Britain’ s Queen is concerned about swans. B. Britain’ s Queen orders a count of swans. C. An old tradition in Buckingham Palace. D. Queen Elizabeth will count swans herself. underlined word “tributaries” can be best replaced by ________. A. districts B. banks C. trees D. branches 第二節(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)
Write a good interesting blog
If you want to avoid being frustrated for writing a blog that was never read, here are some ways to make a good interesting blog.
16 Boring topics are generally not good for blogs unless you are genius writers, who can create beautiful prose(散文) even when writing about the most ordinary things.
Pick a topic you know and are passionate about. 17 If you like video games, for example, write one detailing your experiences of playing them. Note that this kind of blog is different from a “Dear Diary” blog.
Avoid writing your own biography. A “Dear Diary” blog isn’t interesting to other people unless you are a really significant person. Think about it: who would really want to know what you ate for dinner? This kind of blog is self-indulgent(放縱自己的) and unnecessary. 18
Funny blog posts tend to become vital. Humorous charts, pictures, and videos are great supplements to your text. 19 Try to think of unique things to write about, or write an opposing view on a certain subject.
20 People hate being led-on and tricked into reading a blog post that they expect to be helpful, just to realize that it is a subjective and promotional one.
A. It does not offer anything to the people reading it.
B. Write your blog about your personal things.
C. Choose an interesting topic.
D. Inform your readers from the beginning.
E. It should be one that other people can relate to.
F. Write your blog clearly.
G. Do not rehash or rewrite blog posts from famous blogs.

I hadn’t a basketball in five years.
We proceeded to shoot hoops for about 40 minutes. Both of us were terribly bad at it, but we spent the whole time 39 like children. Then I realized something: I am still a child. Oh, the law says I’m an adult. But, we are still really and truly children. We all need to have 40 once in a while.

For that moment, everything bad or terrible that has happened to him 43 ( remove), because that smile is what gives him the 44 ( determine) to love himself. I read 45 poem recently and the young man said, “If I ask you 46 you love, the answers will most likely roll off your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love your mom, you daughter, or your friends. How long do you think you can go on and on before you say ‘I love 47 (I)’” That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve struggled with confidence all my life. I still do.

If you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and it’s not just overcrowded subway trains.
Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can’t put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自動扶梯) in subway stations. “Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn’t a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says. “I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours. It annoys me to no end.”
Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.
The logic behind the “stand right, walk left” escalator etiquette(禮儀) seems obvious. Even though you may want to catch your breath while you’re transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.
Many cities’ escalators, including London’s and Beijing’s, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people. (Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kong’s subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people in this fast-paced city observe the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient. The BBC quotes one stander as saying: “If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs? Even when the escalator is packed and there’s nowhere to move, I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass.”
Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don’t stay at the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.
24. In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to_____.
A. the author’s living in the big city of Hong Kong.
B. being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours.
C. people’s blocking the way or chat on the escalators.
D. people’s standing on the right side resting.
25. When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong_____.
A. stand still as the railway stations require.
B. ignore the “ stand right, walk left” signs
C. use the stairs instead of escalators.
D. follow the “stand right, wail left” etiquette.
26. What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph?
A. Not everyone follows the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
B. The BBC is against the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
C. People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.
D. People shouldn’t complain about the crowded escalators.
27. Which of the following statements is the writer’s opinion?
A. People should stand right no matter where they are.
B. People should do as the Romans do and consider others.
C. People should do as they like on the escalators.
D. People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.
C
It’s that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It’s not because there are a lot of criminals running around stealing cars. Rather, it’s because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this year’s large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to fill it with zucchini(西葫蘆).
My sister, Sharon, recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red. That’s when she decided it was time to share her blessings. She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she began asking everyone in the neighborhood, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “Feel free to take whatever you want,” Sharon told her. Later that day, Sharon found that her garden had indeed been harvested. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.
A few days later, Sharon answered the door. There was the neighbor, holding a hot loaf of bread. The neighbor smiled pleasantly, “I wanted to thank you for all of the tomatoes, and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hoped you wouldn’t mind.”
Sharon couldn’t think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so. “Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said. “You had some of the prettiest zucchini I’ve ever seen.”
Sharon was confused. They hadn’t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden. Sharon felt curious and decided to go to see where the zucchini had grown. The two of them walked together into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables, Sharon smiled. “Well, actually, those are cucumbers(黃瓜)that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating.”
The neighbor looked at Sharon, shock written all over her face. She gulped(哽住)a few times, and then, smiling, held out the bread, part of a batch she had shared all over the neighborhood. “I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you like it.”
28. Why does the author warn people in the neighborhood to lock their cars?
A. They might be stolen by thieves at night.
B. They might be moved away by the police.
C. Their neighbors might fill them with their harvest.
D. Their neighbors might throw cucumbers into them.
29. How did Sharon’s friends react to the invitation to take her tomatoes?
A. They did not accept her kind offer.
B. They were all delighted to have the tomatoes.
C. They said they would go when they were free.
D. They began to tell everyone they knew about it.
30. What did the neighbor do in Sharon’s garden?
A. She only harvested some tomatoes.
B. She took some cucumbers mistakenly.
C. She took something with Sharon’s help.
D. She harvested a few zucchini by accident.
31. We can infer that the neighbor’s bread would taste ________.
A. soft and sweet B. hard and sour
C. funny and bitter D. fragrant and delicious
D
Land Art, sometimes referred to as Earth Art or Earthworks, is a form of art which involves using physical landscapes to create art, taking art out of the museum and into the outside world. Modern Land Art movement really got going in the 1960s, when American artists began creating Land Art on a large scale. Today, works of modern Land Art can be seen all over the world, sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.
Land Art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms. For example, in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty (螺旋狀防波堤), made of a collection of stones and mud, in the Great Salt Lake. The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.
Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art, which can be created by moving parts around. People can also add things to the environment to create Land Art, like salt, which is added to the Spiral Jetty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable.
Land Art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay(衰落). That’s one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums. Some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days. Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.
