People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples. “Whats the matter?” “I went to a party last night, so I” “I feel so tired these days.” “I think youd better” “Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most”You can see from the above three examples that the context(上下文)helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So “guessing” is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.( ) 25. This passage tells us mainly about _.A. the importance of “guessing” in learning a foreign languageB. how to guess what one is going to talk aboutC. some examples of right guessingD. how important it is to guess all the time( ) 26. Which of the following best finishes the sentence in EXAMPLE 3?A. She is one of the most famous film stars.B. She is one of the most beautiful women.C. She is one of the most famous speakers.D. She is one of the most talkative women.( ) 27. From the passage we can infer(推断)that guessing is _ in learning a foreign language.A. the only wayB. more important in spoken English than in written EnglishC. more important than any other wayD. more important in written English than in spoken EnglishBA few minutes before six oclock, Mr. Smith decided to leave. He was about to start the car when a gunman jumped up from the back seat. He held a gun to Mr. Smiths head. “Drive me to Paris!” he shouted.“All right”, Mr. Smith answered. He started the engine, pulled away from the side of the street and drove down. Being eighty-one years old, he knew he could not fight the gunman. He knew he needed help. Where were the police? As he drove through a crossing, he looked up and down the side streets, hoping to meet a police car. But he could see nothing. “Just my luck,” he thought, “If I was driving too fast, there would be a police car on every corner.”Suddenly he pushed his foot down on the accelerator(油门), and the car ran much faster. “What are you doing?” shouted the gunman. “Keeping off the police,” Mr. Smith answered. “I thought I saw a police car back there.”He ran lights, drove the wrong way on one-way streets. On two-way streets he drove on the wrong side of the road. Not one policeman saw him. Again Mr. Smiths plan was not working. He had to try a new plan. He turned a corner and saw the police station in front. Then he drove his car as fast as he could towards the police gate. The car hit a police motorbike down and stopped. Mr. Smith shouted, “Help! Help!” Then he reached back to grab(夺) the mans gun. At the same time the policeman heard the noise and quickly caught the gunman.28. Why did Mr. Smith drive much faster suddenly?A.

Mr. Smith is a wise man. D. Mr. Smith is a stupid man. CWe dont know how different our future will be in the future. We can only try to imagine it.At first we think about human relationship. In the year 2050, we will use computers almost every day we will be making new friends through the Interneteven our husbands or wives will be met in this way. It will be much faster and easier for us. On the other hand, our relationships with people wont be as important as they are todaywe will feel a little lonely. Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050. For example, they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier. In addition, there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers, like robots which will do the homework for us.Spending holidays will also be completely different. Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone. Means(方式) of transport will, of course, change, too. We will be using solar-powered cars, which will be much cleaner.We could expect that the faster technological progress would lead to a more polluted environment. But it isnt true. We will pay more attention to protecting the environment. And, scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases, like cancer or AIDS. Therefore, our surroundings as well as health will be in better condition. Although we cant predict(预测) the exact changes which will be made in the world, we often think about them. We worry about our and our childrens future; we have expectations, hopes as well as fears. But I think we should be rather sanguine(乐观的) about our future. We should be happy and believe good things will happen. 31. Why will people probably feel a little lonely in 2050? A. Because the number of people will become much smaller B. Because there will be less face-to-face communication C. Because people wont like making friends with each other D. Because people wont communicate with each other much often 32.

The way of spending holidays will be the same as that of today. C. It wont be difficult for people to travel to other planets. D. Our environment will be much more polluted with a growing number of cars. 33. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. How people will communicate in the year 2050. B. What our life will be like in the year 2050. C. How people will travel and spend their holidays in the year 2050. D. What high technology will appear in the year 2050.DYou are probably familiar with the saying：An apple a day keeps the doctor away. A recent research carried out by the Chinese University of Hong Kong may change the saying:An apple a day may keep aging away.The research chose fruit flies(果蝇), as they share many genes(基因)with humans. The fruit flies were either fed normally or had an apple extract(浓缩物) added to their diet.It turned out that those fruit flies that were given apple extract lived about 55 daysfive days longer than the flies that were normally fed. The research group also found it easier for the flies to walk，climb and move about as they aged.According to the result, the researchers believed that the antioxidants(抗氧化剂) in the apple extract helped clean up dangerous chemicals(化学物质) that cause illnesses，as well as aging.In another study，researchers examined diets of thousands of women. They discovered that those who regularly ate apples were 20 percent less likely to suffer heart illnesses and stroke.The apples genetic code(遗传密码) was discovered recently. It allows scientists to develop nicer and healthier fruits. Researchers are already using the information to grow a kind of apples full of antioxidants that can keep eyes and joints healthy and protect humans against heart illnesses and cancer.Apples that kill the desire(欲望) to eat could also be produced, with the first“extra-healthyapples on supermarket shelves within just four or five years.The team that keeps studying apple DNA includes 100 scientists from five countries. Their research also suggests that around 65 million years ago, when dinosaurs began to die off the plant，which would finally become todays apple tree, experienced a great genetic change. The number of many of its genes doubled. The extra genes allowed the apple to get used to worse conditions and go through a different development from peaches，strawberries and other related fruits.34Why were fruit flies used for the research?A. Because they have a similar diet to humans.B. Because they have a history as long as apples.C. Because they share a lot of genes with humans.D. Because they feed on nothing but apple extract.35What result did the researchers find out?A. Apples produce chemicals that can change human genes.B. Apples have antioxidants that kill chemicals that cause aging.C. Apples are rich in vitamins that are needed in humans bodies.D. Apples produce chemicals that make apples taste more delicious.36What happened to apples around 65 million years ago according to the research?A. Their genes stopped their development as the environment got worse.B. Their genes became twice in number but they finally died off like dinosaurs.C. They experienced a great genetic change making them get used to worse conditions.D. They went through a similar development to peaches, strawberries and other related fruits.37What can we infer(推断)from the passage?A. Eating apples may bring us more advantages than we might believe before.B. People who have the habit of eating apples dont need to see a doctor.C. Apples that kill the desire to eat are already available in supermarkets now.D. People will eat apples instead of peaches and strawberries from now on. 第二卷（非选择题，共40分）四、词汇运用 根据所给单词或所给中文写出单词的正确形式(本大题共8分，每小题1分)1. There are some people who have _ (固定的) ideas about things.2.
