The people began talking a lot about Womens Liberation. _21_ first I did not take it seriously. I thought that the women in the movement were just unhappy and bitter. I had the _22_ that they hated men, whereas I myself had nothing against men at all. However, I was encouraged by a friend to attend a meeting in North London. There were Womens Liberation groups in each area of London, _23_ in size and in their particular interests. The group I attended was started by a few of middle-class intellectual women who wanted to get the support of working-class housewives in the area. However, _24_ I turned up at the meeting I found that the other women were all the middle-class graduates, a few with several degrees. Some of the girls were very intellectual and articulate, and had even published books or appeared on TV. I have been _25_ the group for several years now and we have had some interesting discussions about the issues the Womens Liberation Movement is concerned with. 21.B A. when B.

The youngest, who was not 23 ambitious （野心勃勃的）, took no part in their argument. As soon as they left home, the father arranged for an adequate income to be provided for 24 of them, but insisted that apart from this they were to be financially self-supporting. The 25 twin, who had the advantage of good looks and a striking personality, decided that he would take up the stage 26 a career. He 27 a small repertory company, acted in minor parts, was always unpunctual （不按时）at rehearsals and was accordingly 28 with his fellow-actors.

The lecturer speaks for one or two hours, perhaps 21 the talk with slides, writing up important information on the blackboard, 22 reading material and giving out assignment. The new student sees the other students continuously writing on notebooks and 23 what to write. Very often the student leaves the lecture with notes which do not catch the main points and 24 become hard even for the students to understand.Most institutions provide courses which assist new students to develop the skills they need to be 25 listeners and not-takers. If these are unavailable, there are many useful study-skills guides which 26 learners to practice these skills independently. In all cases it is important to 27 the problem before actually starting your studies.It is important to acknowledge that most students have difficulty 28 acquiring the language skills required in college study. One way of 29 these difficulties is to attend the language and study-skills classes which most institutions provide throughout the academic year.

He knew she was thinking of 21 “Its bad out there. Black clouds are coming from the sea,” Jamie said. “ Yes. Im thinking of those fishing boats at sea,” she said.At that moment 22 went out. Jamie and his mother were in the dark. “The coastline will be in the dark,” Jamies mother said. She got more worried. 23 always come in threes. I broke my best glasses this morning, and my sister has the cold. “Now, dont worry, mum. Theyre right.” Theyre 24 to come through this all right.But Jamie really worried about those fishing boats himself.

These printed things look like newspaper but have hardly anything to do with them. You can only find reading materials badly 22 there-some are too strange for anyone to believe, 23 are frightening stories of something even worse. However, many of the young students are getting absorbed in such poisonous reading, which costs them what they should pay for their breakfast and bring them nightmares and immoral ideas 24 return. Homework is left undone, daily games lost. These sellers shout on streets selling their papers well. The writes, publishers and printers, 25 they are, we never know, are making their silent money. The sheep skinned wolfs stories seem to have been forgotten once again. Why not forbid this kind of things at school? Yes, both teachers and parents have 26 each other for more strict control of the young readers. Yet unfortunately, 27 you want to forbid it, the more they want to have a look at it. Sometimes you may even find several children share one patched paper, which has traveled from one had to 28 driven by the curious nature. It really does harm to our society. It has already formed a sort of moral pollution. The 29 teachers and parents need more powerful support. Meanwhile, the young readers need more interesting books to help them 30 these ugly papers.21.

Foreign 21 can be very educational for anyone if he is interested enough to make preparations beforehand. Learning the language of the new country would be difficult for the traveler, 22 the benefits of such an effort would become obvious immediately 23 his arrival. It may not seem important to him when he comfortably stays at home, but knowing how to 24 a meal or book a room is necessary for the newcomer in a strange country. Without knowing the language, it is very difficult 25 the stranger to understand the people of the new country and their customs. Of course, in our small world it is often possible to find someone 26 understands our own, but this is only second-best for the traveler. To be sure, he can see places and things 27 the use of a language, but places and things 28 not the heart of any country. To get the greatest benefit from a trip 29 another country, it is how important for the visitor to 30 an understanding of the language.21. A A. travelB. countryC. languageD. people22.

Its impacts are already showing and will intensify over time _21_ left unchecked. There is overwhelming scientific evidence, _22_ shown in the Fourth Assessment Report (第四次评定报告的综合报告)of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC), that climate change will threaten _23_ growth and long-term prosperity, as well as the very survival of the most vulnerable populations. IPCC projections indicate that if emissions continue to rise at their current _24_ and are allowed to double from their pre-industrial level, the world will face an average temperature_25_ of around 3C this century. Serious impacts are associated _26_ this scenario (情景), including sea-level rise, shifts in growing seasons, and an _27_ frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as storms, floods and droughts. The United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December in offers a _28_ opportunity to step up international action on climate change. A Copenhagen deal is _29_ the global transition into green economic growth, and, most urgently, to help the world, especially the most vulnerable, to adapt to impacts _30_ are now inevitable.21、A A. if B. whetherC. whenD. which22、B A. becauseB. asC. whileD. when23、D A. economicsB. economicalC. economy D. economic24、C A. speedB. rateC. paceD. rhythm 25、B A. rising B. riseC. raiseD. raising26、A A. withB. toC. fromD. in27、D A. being increasedB. increasedC. increaseD. increasing28、B A. historyB. historicalC. historicD. historically29、C A. necessaryB. inevitableC. essential D. basic30、A A. thatB. of whichC. whoD. whatIts very interesting to study names of different countries. Chinese names are different _21_ foreign names. Once an English lady came to _22_ me. When I was introduced to her she said, Glad to meet you, Miss Ping. Then she gave me her name card with three words on it: Betty J. Black. So I said, Thank you, Miss Betty, We looked at each other and laughed heartily. Later I found that the English people _23_ their family names last and the given names _24_, while their middles are _25_ used very much. I explained to her that the Chinese family name _ 26_ first, the given name last, so she _27_ never call me Miss Ping. She asked if we Chinese had a middle name. I told her we didnt. _28_ people may often find three words on a Chinese name card. In this case the family name still comes first, and the other words after it _29_ a two-
