We lived on a farm, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its problems too.‎ ‎ One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.‎ ‎ Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever you taste in culture or entertainment(娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising --- and , what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.‎ ‎ Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is , when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.‎ ‎21. What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?‎ ‎ A. Staying on the farm. B. Leaving home for the city. ‎ C. Moving to the countryside. D. Running away from the school.‎ ‎22. Which of the following is true about the writer?‎ ‎ A. He is very old now. B. He is in good health.‎ ‎ C. He prefers driving a car. D. He lives in the city now.‎ ‎23. In the passage, the writer tries to __________.‎ ‎ A. describe his life in the countryside ‎ B. express his opinions about way of life C. an interest in the outside world ‎ D. persuade the reader to live in the city ‎ ‎ B ‎ Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?‎ ‎ Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbacks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book forever and read it many times.‎ ‎ Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books., science textbooks, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.‎ ‎24. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.‎ ‎ A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledge ‎ B. cinemas are the best choice in getting information ‎ C. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself ‎ D. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fun ‎ ‎25. What does the sentence “Television has not killed reading, however ” underlined in the second paragraph suggest?‎ ‎ A. People only need reading, though. ‎ ‎ B. Reading is more fun than television. ‎ C. Reading is still necessary today.‎ ‎ D. Watching television doesn’t help reading.‎ ‎26. What can we learn from the passage?‎ ‎ A. Fewer and fewer people will buy books.‎ ‎ B. A good dictionary should be kept in every home.‎ ‎ C. Books with hard covers sell better than paperbacks ‎ D. More people like TV programs about famous men..‎ C ‎ We all know what a brain(大脑) is. A doctor will tell you that the brain is the organ of the body in the head. It controls our body’s functions, movements, emotions and thoughts. But a brain can mean so much more.‎ A brain can also simply be a smart person. If a person is called brainy, she is smart and intelligent. If a family has many children but one of them is super smart, you could say “She’s the brains in the family.” And if you are the brains behind something, you are responsible for developing or organizing it. For example, Bill Gates is the brains behind Microsoft.‎ Brain trust is a group of experts who give advice. Word experts say the phrase “brain trust” became popular when Franklin D. Roosevelt first ran for president in 1932. Several professors gave him advice on social and political issues facing the U.S. These professors were called his “brain trust.”‎ These ways we use the word “brain” all make sense. But other ways we use the word are not so easy to understand. For example, to understand the next brain expression, you first need to know the word “drain”. As a verb, to drain means to remove something by letting it flow away. So a brain drain may sound like a disease where the brain flows out the ears. But, a brain drain is when a country’s most educated people leave their countries to live in another. The brains are, sort of, draining out of the country.‎ However, if people are responsible for a great idea, you could say they brainstormed it. Here, brainstorm is not an act of weather. It is a process of thinking creatively about a complex topic. For example, business leaders may use brainstorming to create new products, and government leaders may brainstorm to solve problems.‎ If people are brainwashed, it does not mean their brains are nice and clean. To brainwash means to make someone accept new beliefs by using repeated pressure in a forceful or tricky way. Keep in mind that brainwash is never used in a positive way.‎ ‎27．Why did Roosevelt successfully win the election according to the passage?‎ A . Because word experts were popular. ‎ B． Because he got his brain trust.‎ C. Because he was smart at giving advice. ‎ D．Because he was the brains behind Americans.‎ ‎28．According to the text, if you’re the CEO of Bai Du ，you can be called_______ .‎ A．the organ of Bai Du B．the brains behind Bai Du C．the brain drain of Bai Du D．Bai Du’s brain trust ‎29．Which of the following expressions is always used in a negative way?‎ A．Brainstorm B．Brain trust C．Brainwash D．Brain drain ‎30．What’s the main idea of this article？‎ A．The word “brain” and its stories. ‎ B. The origin of the word “brain”‎ C．What is the brain. ‎ D．The difference between “brain trust” and “brainwash”. ‎ D It doesn’t matter when or how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thought, until they heard about AI Herpin. AI Herpin, it was said, never slept, Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.        AI Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised . Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping , In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.         The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. ‎ ‎         Herpin died at the age of 94.‎ ‎31. The main idea of this passage is that _______.    A. large numbers of people do not need sleep ‎ ‎ B. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleep     C. everyone needs some sleep to stay alive    D. people can live longer by trying not to sleep 32. The doctors came to visit Herpin , expecting to ______.    A. cure him of his sleeplessness    B. find that his sleeplessness was not really true    C. find a way to free people from the need of sleeping    D. find out why some old people didn’t need any sleep 33. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that AL Herpin ________.    A. was too old to need any sleep            B. often slept in a chair    C. needed no sleep at all                  D. needed some kind of sleep 34. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was ________.    A. that he hadn’t got a bed                ‎ ‎ B. that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habit    C. his mother’s injury before he was born    ‎ ‎ D. his magnificent physical condition ‎ ‎35. AI Herpin’s condition could be regarded as ______.    A. a common one                       B. a rare one    C. very healthy                         D. one that could be cured ‎ 第二节 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。‎ ‎ Kids who have autism (自闭症) see the world differently than other people do, so they sometimes react to it in unexpected ways. 36 She hopes that people can understand autism and treat those who have autism with respect.
