I first met Richard when he
wanted someone to do some teaching, and I had been 36 taking the job by a friend. I
was 37 whether I really wanted to teach there.
But I made my way to the 38 .
I could see from his questions he was curious about me and 39 to sound me out, which was not
easy as I was then too shy.
What he probably did not know
was that I was 40 curious about him. I have to 41 I had a wildly false view of him: he did
have a growing 42 , but he
could hardly be a front-rank philosopher. For, as a professor, his main
interests 43 to stick to a
lot other than the 44 itself.
Of course, my wrong
understanding of him could not long 45 but it really took much time for my 46 impression to be 47.
This did not 48 until when we met and talked more
often. A 49 that was likely
to come up was art—not the philosophy of art but the arts themselves and
particular 50 . It came as
no surprise that his greatest love among the arts was paintings by Leonardo da
Vinci , who had long been my favorite, and that his 51 for paintings that he had seen was
extraordinary-- he really knew a lot. I was 52 to have one who loved the
same 53 as I did. I remember
how 54 he was when I told him this, and even
closer we became 55 .

A
To understand the marketing concept(概念) , it is only necessary to understand the difference between
marketing and selling. Not too many years ago, most industries fixed their
attention mainly on the production of goods, and then depended on “ persuasive
salesmanship” to move as much of these goods and then change them into money.
Marketing on the other hand, focuses on the
wants of customers. It begins with first understanding the preferences and
demands of consumers(消费者) and then producing goods that will satisfy them. This
eye-on-the-consumer way is known as the marketing concept, which simply means
that instead of trying to sell whatever is easiest to produce or buy for
resale, the makers and dealers first try to find out what the consumer wants to
buy.
This concept does not mean that business is
friendly or that consumer satisfaction is more important than profit(利润) in a company. Successful
businessmen and producers , however, recognize that the surest route to profit
is through understanding and satisfying customers. A striking example of the
importance of satisfying customers presented itself in mid-1985, when Coco-Cola
changed the flavor of its drink. The non-acceptance of the new flavour by a
large majority of the public brought about quick return of the classic Coke,
which was then marketed alongside the new .King customer ruled!
56．The marketing
concept discussed in the passage is ___。
A．the
practice of turning goods into money. B．the customer-centered way
C．a way of making more goods
D．a form of persuasive salesmanship
57．What mattered
most for producers before the marketing concept was widely accepted ? ___
A．Needs and understanding of the
market B．Satisfaction of customers
C．Production and profit of the
market D．Preference of businessmen
58．According to
the passage, the underlined word “to move” (paragraph1) means ____.
A．to sell B．to change C．to produce D．to consume
59．What does the
return of the Classic Coke best show?
A．Traditional goods have stronger
attraction to the majority of people
B．It takes time for a new product to
be accepted by the public
C．Consumers with different taste are
often difficult to please
D．Products must be designed to suit
the taste of the consumers .

The 77th Annual Academy Awards,
or Oscars, takes place at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday, February
27th, 2005. this is only the second time that the award have been
held in February, the date traditionally being the third Sunday in March.
Piopocs are the favoured genre this year in the
men’s Best Actor category. Leonardo Dicaprio plays millionaire adventurer
Howard Hughes in Finding never land. Meanwhile, in the Best Actress category

Three
years after Tatum O’Neal broke all records as the youngest winner, comedian
George Nurms became the oldest winner at the age of 80 for his role in The
Sunshine Boys. Unfortunately for George, his “oldest winner” title was lost to
Jessica Tandy a few years later when she won her second Oscar at the age of 82.

category this year for her role n The Aviator as actress Katharine Hephurn, the person
who has won more acting Oscars than anyone else in the history of the awards.
Hepburn won four Oscars between 1932 and 1981 and was nominated for 12 overall.
Bad boy Jack Nicholson has also been nominated 12 times but has only managed to
pick up three prizes. Maybe next year, Jack, however, the undoubted “daddy” of
them all is none other tan Walt Disney, who walked away with 26 Academy Awards

More than 40 years ago, John Williams gave away all of his
belongings and went off to the mountains to live the way people lived 100 years
ago. For food he traps wild animals, fishes in the rivers, and plants whatever he
can. John lives in a cabin he made by hand, out of trees he chopped down with
an ax. Though he has no relatives that he knows of, he does have a deer he
raised from a fawn. The deer lives in the house in the winter and goes with
John when he goes into the forest for food. Nobody lives within fifty miles of
his cabin in the mountains and John has not been out of the mountains during
the entire forty years. One day last year I hiked in to see how John lives. It
was like going back in time. There were no roads, no stores, no noise, no
pollution, not even a post office.
Most notable of all, there were no people and that’s just the way
John Williams wants to keep his part of the world ---without people. But there
is a paradox in his story. John is an educated man. He has books and nobody
knows how he got them. Mostly he reads about his world, the forest, the
animals, the plants, and the mountains. He has seen airplanes flying overhead
but does not want to know about them. For him, electricity is lightning, not light
bulbs, refrigerators, televisions, or washing machines. John Williams is 85
years old and has not had a sick day in his life. He attributes his long life
to the fact that he has nothing to do with people and in order that he might
enjoy many more years of health, happiness, and solitude, I will not tell you
where his kingdom lies. There is no room there for you or me.
64．Who lives in
John Williams’s house?
A．He and his family
B．John Williams himself
C．Nobody---he sleeps outside D．A group of friends
65．John
Williams’s house is made of ____.
A．wood
B．bricks C．animal skin D．old stones
66．John Williams
has lived in his present location ____.
A．since he was born
B．since his wife died
C．almost half his life
D．since he graduated from college
67．According to
the speaker, which of the following could John Williams Not use in his cabin?
A．An ax B．Clothing C．Knives D．Electricity
D
Since life is short and the world is wide, the sooner you start
exploring it, the better. Soon enough the time will come when you are too tied
to move farther than the terrace of the best hotel. Go now.
No need, you may say, to tell me that. But what I do need to tell
you is that you will need with a surprising amount of opposition the moment you
try to set out. Rubbish, you will reply. More people go abroad nowadays than
ever before; never has travel, particularly among the young, been wiser with
international exchanges. Perhaps not; but none of this, my dear young friends,
is travel. Travel is not going on a round coach trip for $67 in all, or
spending ten days at a hotel by the sea. Travel is when you want to see how
much money and resources you have and then set out, alone or with chosen friends,
to make an unhurried journey to a distant goal without a set date for your
return.
Real travel, then, is independence in action and is not liked by
most parents. They don’t mind your going in a school party to Athens, because
they know just where you are and when you’ll be back, and they can, therefore,
permit you the imagination of freedom without for one second letting you beyond
their control. But what they cannot bear is that you should travel all on your
own, without giving them your address and return date. In fact, their fears are
quite reasonable because that shows how much they love you. So in order to
enjoy real travel and at the same time put your parents’ mind at ease. It would
be really important for you to bear the following advice in mind.
68．Which of the
following statements is true according to the passage?
A．People travel more than before
B．Young people are discouraged to
travel abroad
C．People should not go on round coach trip for $67
D．educational visits should not be
encouraged as they are not real travel.
69．According to
the writer, real travel means _____.
A．telling your parents nothing about
the travel
B．not knowing where you want to go
C．traveling to a distant goal in an
unhurried manner
D．traveling without any plan
70．Your parents
allow you to travel in a school party because ____.
A．they want you to be truly free B. you are still under
their control
C．they don’t have time to travel with
you D. they know it’s good for you.
71．According to
the writer, when you do real traveling , you should ____.
A．never mind
how worried your parents are
B．give your
parents your address and return date
C．tell your
parents details about your travel
D．not let your
parents worry about you
E
IS
IT TIME TO GET –MP3?
Your computer has been playing music for
years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC if
they’re the MP3 format.
What is it?
MP3 compresses (压缩) music into small computer---
friendly files. You access MP3 music several ways: tunes can be downloaded from
websites that have converted (转变) vast music libraries into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PCs hard
drive, you can play it through your computer’s speakers, “burn” it onto
blank CDs or swap(交换) MP3 files with friends using e-mail.
How much?
Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is
often free. It comes preinstalled(预先安装) on most computers or can be downloaded from many websites,
including MP3.com. Some MP3 sites are free. Just type “MP3 sites” into any
search engine. Compact portable MP3 players start at around $50 and can hold
hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music is about a dollar.
Advantages
MP3 turns your home PC into a jukebox(自动唱机). Tiny MP 3 players are the
size of a deck of cards, making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.
Disadvantages
You may find that music at many sites is limited.
And some only allow you to listen rather than download offerings. Others let
you download music that then can’t be copied to MP3 players. And a growing
number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.
72．How can you
get MP3 music?
A．by turning
your home PC into a jukebox.
B．by taking
your own music or songs with you.
C．by copying
songs to a PC through the speakers
D．by
downloading from websites which have converted music libraries into MP3.
73．Which is NOT
true to the passage?
A．Software needed to play and convert
MP3 music is often free of charge.
B．MP3 music can be “burned” onto
blank CDs or swapped with friends by e-mail.
C．MP3 music can be taken along while
traveling.
D．A greater number of new CDs make it
possible to copy songs to a computer.
74．Which of the
following is the most expensive?
A．Software
needed to play MP3 music B．Music from MP3 sites
C．An MP3
player
D．A blank CD
75．What is the
closest meaning of the underlined word “Burn”?

One possible version:
Dear fellow students,
I’m here in front of you with a heavy heart. Because I have been
shocked by the terrible loss of lives from the earthquakes and the tsunamis in
the Indian Ocean, which hit Southeast and South Asia on December 26, 2004.
The number of the deaths in the disaster is up to 160,000 and
millions of people need immediate aid. The disaster caused great loss to the
affected countries. The Red Cross Society of China has so far received 160
million yuan in donation for tsunami-hit countries.
In the fact of this sudden disaster, the governments and people
there have displayed an admirable level of confidence, courage and capability
to save themselves from danger. Merciless as the tsunami was, we human beings
are compassionate and caring. As a member of the great Chinese people, we have
the responsibility and duty to work with stricken countries and the
international community hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder to help people
there in rebuilding their beautiful homes. So let’s save the pocket money and
donate it to this great war against nature.
Thank you!
