Passage 1
Places to stay in Britain are as varied as the places you visit.Whatever your budget is the choice—from basic barn to small hotel,from tiny cottage to grand castle—is all part of fun.
Hostels
Cheap,good–value hostels are aimed at all types of like–minded travelers,who prefer value over luxury and you don’ t have to be young or single to use them.Britain’ s independent hostels and backpackers hostels also offer a great welcome.Facilities and prices vary,especially in rural areas,where some hostels are a little more than a bunkhouse(暂时住房)while others are remarkably comfortable–almost like bargain hotels.
Youth Hotels
Founded many years ago to“help all,especially young people of limited means,to a greater knowledge,love and care of the countryside”,the Youth Hotels Association is still going strong in the 21st century.The network of 230 hotels is a perfect gateway for exploring Britain’s towns and countryside.
B & Bs
The B&B(bed and breakfast)is a great British institution.In essence you get a room in somebody’s house,and small B&Bs may only have one guest room,so you’ll really feel like part of the family.Larger B&Bs may have four or five rooms and more facilities,but just as warm as a welcome.
In country areas your B&B might be in a village or an isolated farm surrounded by fields.Prices reflect facilities:and usually run from around£12 to£20 per person.City B&Bs charge about£25 to£30 per person。although they’re often cheaper as you go further out to the suburbs.
Pubs & Inns
As well as selling drinks and meals,Britain’s pubs and inns sometimes offer B&B,particularly in country areas.Staying a night or two can be great fun and puts you at the heart of the local community.
Rates range from around£15 to£25 per person.Pubs are more likely to have single rooms. (332 words)

B.All pubs and inns offer visitors bed and breakfast.
C.Pubs and inns charge a visitor£25 at the most.
D.If you want a single room.you are more likely to get one in pubs.
Passage 2
What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is“no”.It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist.You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter.You will probably agree,too,that knowing how to investigate,how to discover information,is important to everyone.The scientists, however, goes one step further,he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons.He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.
The scientist’s knowledge must be exact.There is no room for half right or right just half the time.He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit.What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times.If the conditions are different,any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions.This is one reason that investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein,who developed the theory of relativity,arrived at this theory through mathematics.The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations,Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct.A scientist uses many tools for measurements.Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations. (263 words)

C.can be used for many purposes
D.1eave no room for improvement

26.【答案】D。【解析】考查固定词组辨析能力。had better(常简略为’d better)是一固定词组,意为“最佳”,用于表示对他人的劝说、提议或表示一个愿望。其使用方法有如下几点:① had better后跟动词原形(即不带to的不定式),组成had better do sth.句型。② 主语无论是第几人称,句子无论是什么时态,都要用had better的形式。③ 常用的否定形式是将否定副词not直接放在had better的背面。如:You had better not miss the last bus.你最佳不要错过末班公共汽车。would better后跟动词原形(即不带to的不定式),组成would better do sth.句型,“最佳”,后者更委婉。
27.【答案】A。【解析】考查固定词组搭配使用方法。listen to music“听音乐”。
28.【答案】B。【解析】考查多个选项并列的使用方法。“假如你确实不能入睡,吃点面包、米饭或喝点牛奶”。在两个选项并列时用and连接;在三个选项并列时,前二者之间用逗号连接,后二者之间用and连接。
29.【答案】C。【解析】考查句与句之间的逻辑关系。“天天散步。自然光有利于调整你的生物钟,因此假如也许的话,到户外去运动”。只有连词so“因此,因此”才符合句意。
30.【答案】D。【解析】考查副词与动词搭配的使用方法。“上床之前,把烦恼事、思绪或问题写下来。把这些写下来之后,你能够少想事了。这么你入睡就更轻易了”。Fewer“较少的”用作限定词,修饰名词;less(1ittle的比较级)“较小地,较少地”用作副词,修饰动词think。

My Opinion on Cell Phones
Cell phones do play an important role in people’s daily life, but every coin has its two sides.
To start with,as a wireless mobile phone,it’s convenient for the user at any time to contact others. Secondly, it’s a helpful companion. With a multifunctional cell phone in hand, one can easily surf the net, downloading what he needs.
However, the cell phone has many disadvantages. For one thing, the machine itself is very expensive and its local service is very costly, not to mention its global service; for another, the radiation from the mobile phones might do harm to the user’s health.
In my opinion, with its expenses being reduced sharply, its development will have a brighter future. Therefore its advantages will far outweigh its disadvantages.
