better jobs in the 45 . This is just like a 46 in the sports meeting. Only when we dash

and study with many other people and we are 48 of a society. In many cases, we can’t do 49 cooperation between us because each one’s
ability is 50 . 51 , cooperation is also important. As 52 as we are cooperative, our achievements

三. 阅读理解
阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案。
A.
“The
Lord of the Rings”, one of the best sellers in the new millennium（千年）,
was made up of three parts——“The Fellowship of the Ring”,
“Two Towers”, and “The Return of the King”. Millions upon millions of people
have read it in over 25 different languages, but fewer know about the author
and the history of the composition of the creative materwork.
John Ronald
Reuel Tolkien was born in South Africa in 1892. His parents died when he was a
child. Living in England with his aunt, Tolkien and his cousins made up play
languages, a hobby that led to Tolkien’s becoming skilled in Welsh, Greek,
Gothic, Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon.
After
graduating from Oxford, Tolkien served in World War I. In 1917, while
recovering from trench fever, he began composing the mythology for The Rings. As a professor of Anglo-Saxon
in 1930s at Oxford, Tolkien was part of an informal discussion group called the
Inklings, which included several writers. The group was soon listening to
chapters of Tolkien’s imaginative work “The
Hobbit”.
Hobbit was
a name Tolkien created for a local people that could best be described as
half-sized members of the English rural（乡村的）class.
Hobbits live in hillside holes. One of them, Bilbo Baggins, looks for treasures
with a group of dwarves（侏儒）. On the way, he meets the
twisted, pitiful creature Gollum, from whom he sees a golden ring that makes
the holder invisible.
One of Tolkien’s
students persuaded her employer, publisher Allen & Unwin, to look at a
draft（草稿）. The chairman of the firm, Stanley Unwin,
thought that the best judge for a children’s book would be his ten-year-old
son. The boy earned a shilling for reporting back that the adventure was
exciting, and “The Hobbit” was published in 1937.
It sold so
well that Unwin asked for a continuation. Over a dozen years later, in 1954,
Tolkien produced “The Lord of the Rings”, a series of books so creative that
they hold readers—new and old —after
their publication.
56．What
can we learn from the text?
A．
“The Lord of the Rings” didn’t sell well in the last millennium.
B．People
know better about Tolkien himself than about his works.
C．Tolkien
was quite familiar with Old English.
D．Tolkien

of Tolkien’s students.

Unwin’s son.
C．Allen
& Unwin.
D．Bilbo
Baggins.
58．What
is mainly discussed in the text?
A．“The
Lord of the Rings” and its writer.
B．A
completely new masterwork in the new millennium.
C．A
famous professor at Oxford University.
D．The
power of the magic ring.
59．Which
of the following shows the right order of Mr. J.R.R.Tolkien’s life experience?

had his “The Hobbit” published.
b．He
became a member of the Inklings.

served in World WarⅠ

“I have a regular film camera but I just
don’t use it much，” said Ms Lowery，23，a computer programmer．“When I got married last year，I had all these pictures that didn’t come out right．With digital cameras，you aren’t spending money on
film for wasted pictures，”she said．
There are plenty
of models from which to choose：from simple $200 point and shoot snappers to $1,000 wonder with
all the qualities that any advanced amateur(业余爱好者)could want．The wide selection is a sure sign that in many buyers’ minds，digital cameras have risen from
mere gadgets to must-have items．
Digital cameras offer
more than just the instant previewing of pictures on small color screens．They can store dozens, sometimes
hundreds, of pictures that can be printed easily “at home or sent by e-mail”．Although there are extra costs ---the
cost of memory cards for storage and the special paper for printing--- many
buyers have been willing to make the switch．
Although about 90

growing share of the market．And the number of digital camera households，now at about 10 percent，is certain to grow，as producers introduce more and
more camera．, whose quality is as good as film cameras．Soon，even professionals will use
them．
Salesmen expect
digital cameras to be popular gifts this holiday season．“They are very hot this year，”said Yossi Fogel at B&H
Photo in New York．“The prices have come down and the quality has gone up．Who wants to travel with 30
rolls 0f film? With a large memory card to store pictures，you can shoot and shoot and
never have to worry about changing a roll．How many times have you missed a picture because you failed to
reload the film?”
64．Which of the following is N0T the advantage of the digital camera
over the film camera?
A．The user has to spend
additional money for it．
B．It comes in many models for the
customer．
C．It saves money from unwanted
pictures．

e-mail．
65．According to this passage，the American household using digital cameras will increase,
because ．
A．their producers spend more
money

C．their salesmen are more
friendly

A
sixth of undergraduates in Beijing this year have registered at driving school.
The students, mostly from majors such as business management or international
trade , will finish their driving courses within 20 days or so .
Training
costs have dropped to 2,600 yuan for students, according to the Haidian Driving
School in Beijing. The price is not really low, but students will accept it,
seeing it as an investment in their future. Familiarity with the operation of
computers and fluent English are the basic skills graduating students need to
find a job. But a driver’s permit has become another factor.
“In
the job market, owning a driver’s permit sometimes strengthens a graduating
student’s competitiveness for a good position,” says Zhou Yang, an
undergraduate at the China University of Political Science and Law.
Cars
will become a necessary part of many people’s lives in the coming years, and it
is difficult to get a permit of campus because of the pressures on working
people’s time . “Having a fulltime job after graduation offers limited time to
learn to drive . We senior students have plenty of spare time, plenty of
opportunity to learn.” Zhou says.
Xu
Jian, an official at the driving school, said undergraduates were very able and
serious , and could grasp in an hour what ordinary people took four hours to
learn . In this driving school, middle –aged people, young women and college
students are the main customers.
To
get a driver’s permit, a beginner is now required to have at least 86 hours’
practice before the final road test .
68． in Beijing want to learn to drive .
A．Most
of the undergraduates
B．Many
undergraduates
C．Many
students in the driving school
D．Most
of the students who learn business or international trade
69．The
undergraduates are learning to drive because .
A．they
need this skill to find a good job
B．they
like to drive cars
C．they
will not have any time to learn to drive after they have found a full-time job
D．most
of them will be able to buy cars in the future
70．Which
of the following is likely to be Xu Jian’s opinion of students learning to
drive?
A．He
thought it was better to learn it at college than at work .
B．He
decided it was a waste of money and time to learn to drive .
C．He
agreed that they could learn to drive .
D．He
thought they would spend three times more time to learn to drive than usual .
71．Which
of the following can be the best headline for the passage ?
A．Students
Pay Less to Learn to drive Now .
B．Students
Learn to Drive
C．It
is Better to Learn to Drive at Colleges .
D．Welcome
to the Driving School .
E.
Some people believe that
international sport creates good will between the nations and that if countries
play games together they will learn to live together．0thers say that the opposite is
true：that international competitions
encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred．There is probably some truth in
both arguments，but in recent years the 0lympic Games have done little to support
the view that sport encourages international brotherhood．Not only was there the tragic
incident including the murder of athletes，but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by
smaller national contests．
0ne country received its
second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey(曲棍球)final．There had been noisy scenes by the
end of the hockey match， the losers objecting to the final decisions． They were sure that one of their goals should not have been
disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair．Their manager was in great anger
when he said：“This wasn’t hockey．Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished．”The president of the
Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension of the
team for at least three years．
Incidents of this kind will
continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of
the game The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals，or in non—national teams，might be too much to hope for．But in the present organization
of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism(爱国主义)．
72．According to the author，in recent years the Olympic Games have ．
A．created goodwill between the
nations
B．brought about only false
national pride
C．hardly showed any international
friendship
D．1ed to more and more
misunderstanding and hatred
73．What did the manager mean by saying，“Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished”?
A．His team would no longer take
part in international games．
B．Hockey and the Federation are
both ruined by the unfair decisions．
C．There should be no more Hockey
matches organized by the Federation．
D．The Federation should break up．
74．The author gives the example in paragraph 2 to show ．
A．how false national pride led to
undesirable incidents in international games
B．that sportsmen have been more
obedient than they used to be
C．that competitiveness in the
games discourage international friendship
D．that unfair decisions are
common in the Olympic games
75．What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?
A．The organization of the 0lympic
Games must be improved．
B．Athletes should compete as individuals
in the Olympic’ Games．
C．Sport should be played
competitively rather than for the love of the game．
D．More and more athletes will
compete for their own honor．

六、书面表达（25）
During the summer holidays this year, I thought I should do
something meaningful instead of staying at home, So I got a job at a KFC fast
food restaurant and worked there as a cleaner. I worked seven hours a day for
three weeks.
The job was hard and boring and seemed endless, which made me so
tired that I nearly gave it up half way. After all, I stuck to it with
determination.
Every day I started off for work early in the morning and got home
late in the evening. Finally I finished the job before the new term began.
Now, I understand what labour means. I think it is really a
successful experience.
