     While all my classmates seem to be crazy about a one-way ticket to Mars (火星), I'd rather say Mars is
totally unsuitable for human existence. People won't have enough food supplies there, and the terrible
environment would make it impossible for them to live a long life. Besides, the journey won't be safe. Can
anybody explain to me just why people would go to Mars, never to return?
     Steve Minear, UK
     Here are the things you can think of: the desire to explore a foreign and unique environment, the excitement
of being the first humans to open up a new world, the expectation of fame and glory…For scientists there is
another reason. Their observations and research will probably lead to great scientific achievements.
     Donal Trollop, Canada
     There are already too many people on the Earth. I think that sometime before the end of the century, there
will be a human colony (殖民地) on Mars. It will happen when people finally realize that two-way trips to the
red planet Mars are unnecessary. Most of the danger of space flight is in the launches (發射) and landings.
Cutting the trip home would therefore reduce the danger of accidents, save a lot of money, and open the way
to building an everlasting human settlement on another world.
     Enough supplies can be sent on ahead. And every two years more supplies and more people will be sent to
the new colony. Mars has all the materials for a colony to produce or make everything it needs, and Mars is
far more pleasant than the other planets in the outer space.
     Paul Davies. USA

1. The main purpose of Steve Minear's writing is _____.

A. to report his classmates' discussion

A. There is a plan to send humans to Mars.
B. There are many reasons for going to Mars.
C. Scientists become famous by doing research on Mars.
D. It is possible to build an Earth-like environment on Mars.

A. humans need only a one-way ticket to Mars
B. two-way trips to Mars will be made safe soon
C. it is easy to reduce the danger and cost of flights to Mars
D. it is cheap to build an everlasting human settlement on Mars

4. What does Paul Davies think of human existence on Mars?

     Quickly, the picture comes alive with hyperlinks (超鏈接), offering the names of the buildings, towers
and street features that appear in the photo. The hyperlinks lead to information about the history, services
and context of all the features in the photo. You have just hyperlinked your reality.
     That might be a little unbelievable, but the technology exists and is no fevered imagination. This is not
a cool small machine invented for the next James Bond movie; this is a working technology just developed
by European researchers. It could be coming to a phone near you, and soon.
    This, as the marketing types say, is a game changer. It develops a completely new interface (界面) that
combines web-technology with the real world. It is big and fresh, but it goes much further and has much
greater influence.
     The development of the system is most outstanding because image recognition technology has long been
pregnant with promise, but seemed to suffer from an unending labour.
     Now MOBVIS has not only developed image recognition; it has also developed more applications for the
technology; and it has adapted it to the world's most popular technology: the mobile phone.
     The MOBVIS system completely rewrites the rules for exploration and interaction with your physical
environment. The system begins with panoramas (一連串景象). These panoramas form the basis of a city
database. It can match buildings, towers, banners and even logos that appear in the panoramas.
     A user simply takes a picture of the street feature, MOBVIS compares the user's photograph to the
panoramas and then identifies the buildings from the picture you take and the relevant links are returned.
     Then you simply click on the Imks, using a touch-screen phone, and the MOBVIS system will provide
information on the history, art, architecture or even the menu, if it is a restaurant, of the building in question.

1. Which is introduced in the passage?

[ ]

A. A new game software.
B A popular mobile phone.
C. A cool small machine.
D. An image recognition system.

2. What can we learn about the new technology?

[ ]

A. It can only be put into use on mobile phones.
B. It is a little unbelievable and just a fevered imagination.
C. It has taken an unending labor to bring the technology into our lives.
D. It will encourage the users to take more pictures of the street features.

3. What is the right order of the operation of MOBVIS?
    a. A city database forms in the system
    b. MOBVIS recognizes the picture and links are returned
    c. A user touches the links on the phone screen
    d. A user takes a picture of the street feature.
    e. MOBVIS provides information in question

[ ]

A. a; e; c; d; b;
B. a; d; b; c; e
C. d; c; e; a; b
D. c; a; e; b; d

4. From the passage, we can infer that _____.

[ ]

A. MOBVIS has already been widely used all over the world
B. the writer is trying to promote the sales of the MOBVIS system
C. this new technology will soon be very popular in our lives
D. the sales of mobile phones will decrease as MOBVIS comes on market

     A study published in September suggests there is a surprising way to get people to avoid unhealthy foods;
change their memories. Scientist Elizabeth Loftus of the University of California at Irvine asked volunteers to
answer some questions on their personalities (個性) and food experiences. "One week later," Loftus says, "we
told those people we'd fed their answers into our smart computer and it came up with an account of their early
childhood experiences." Some accounts included one key additional detail (細節):"You got sick after eating
strawberry ice-cream." The researchers then changed this detail into a manufactured (人為促生的) memory
through leading questions－Who were you with? How did you feel? By the end of the study up to 41% of those
given a false memory believed strawberry ice-cream once made them sick, and many said they'd avoid eating it.
     When Loftus published her findings, she started getting calls from people begging her to make them
remember hating chocolate or French fries. Unfortunately, it's not that easy. False memories appear to work
only for foods you don't eat on a regular basis. But most important, it is likely that false memories can be
implanted (灌輸) only in people who are unaware of the mental control. And lying to a patient is immoral, even
if a doctor believes it's for the patient's benefit.
     Loftus says there's nothing to stop parents from trying it with their overweight children. "I say, wake up－
parents have been lying about Father Christmas for years, and nobody seems to mind. If they can prevent
diseases caused by fatness and all the other problems that come with that, you might think that's a more moral
lie. Decide that for yourself."

1. Why did Loftus ask the volunteers to answer some questions?

A. To improve her computer program.
B. To find out their attitudes towards food.
C. To find out details she can make use of.
D. To predict what food they'll like in the future.

2. What did Loftus find out from her research?

A. People believe what the computer tells them.
B. People can be led to believe in something false.
C. People tend to forget their childhood experiences.
D. People are not always aware of their personalities.

3. According to the study, people may stop having a certain food if they ______.

A. learn it is harmful for health
B. lie to themselves that they don't want it
C. are willing to let doctors control their minds
D. think they once had a bad experience of eating it

4. What is the biggest concern with the method?

A. Whether it is moral.
B. Who it is best for.
C. When it is effective.
D. How it should be used.

Reading comprehension.

     A study involving 8, 500 teenagers from all social backgrounds found that most of them are ignorant
when it comes to money. The findings, the first in a series of reports from NatWest that has started a five-
year research project into teenagers and money, arc particularly worrying as this generation of young people
is likely to be burdened with greater debts man any before.
     University tuition fees (學費) are currently capped at ￡3,000 annually, but this will be reviewed next year
and the Government is under enormous pressure to raise the ceiling.
     In the research, the teenagers were presented with die terms of four different loans but 76 per cent failed
to identify the cheapest. The young people also predicted that they would be earning on average ￡ 31.000 by
the age of 25, although the average salary for those aged 22 to 29 is just ￡ 17,815. The teenagers expected
to be in debt when they finished university or training, although half said that they assumed the debts would
be less than ￡ 10.000. Average debts for graduates are ￡ 12,363.
     Stephen Moir, head of community investment at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group which owns NatWest,
said. "The more exposed young people are to financial issues, and the younger they become aware of them,
the more likely they arc to become responsible, forward-planning adults who manage their finances confidently
and effectively."
     Ministers are deeply concerned about the financial pressures on teenagers and young people because of
student loans and rising housing costs. They have just introduced new lessons in how to manage debts. Nikki
Fair-weather, aged 15 from St Helens, said that she had benefited from lessons on personal finance, but
admitted that she still had a lot to learn about money.

1. Which of the following can be found from the five-year research project?

A. Students understand personal finances differently.
B. University tuition fees in England have been rising.
C. Teenagers tend to overestimate their future earnings.
D. The students' payback ability has become a major issue.

2. The phrase "to raise the ceiling" in paragraph 2 probably means "______".

A. to raise the student loans
B. to improve the school facilities
C. to increase the upper limit of the tuition
D. to lift the school building roofs

3. According to Stephen Moir, students ______.

A. are too young 10 be exposed 10 financial issues
B. should learn 10 manage their finances well
C. should maintain a positive attitude when facing loans
D. benefit a lot from lessons on personal finance

4. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Many British teenagers do not know money matters well.
B. Teenagers in Britain are heavily burdened with debts.
C. Financial planning is a required course at college.
D. Young people should become responsible adults.

     The African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth, is of great importance to African
ecosystem (生態系統). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its
environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna (大草原) surroundings in
which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat
(棲息地).
     It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important
builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills
small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both
deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces
are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.
     Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out
sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants,
elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests
become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as
well.
     What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the
elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and
savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.

1. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Disappearance of African elephants.
B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.
C. The effect of African elephants' search for food.
D. The eating habit of African elephants.

2. What does the underlined phrase "setting the terms" most probably mean?

A. Fixing the time.
B. Worsening the state.
C. Improving the quality.
D. Deciding the conditions.

3. What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?

A. They result from the destruction of rain forests.
B. They provide food mainly for African elephants.
C. They are home to many endangered animals.
D. They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.

4. The passage is developed mainly by ______.

A. showing the effect and then explaining the causes
B. pointing out similarities and differences
C. describing the changes in space order
D. giving examples

     If you look for a book as a present for a child, you will be spoiled for choice even in a year when there
is no new Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling's wizard is not alone: the past decade has been a harvest for good
children's books, which has set off a large quantity of films and in turn led to increased sales of classics
such as The Lord of the Rings.
     Yet despite that, reading is increasingly unpopular among children. According to statistics, in 1997 23%
said they didn't like reading at all. In 2003, 35% did. And around 6% of children leave primary school each
year unable to read properly.
     Maybe the decline is caused by the increasing availability of computer games. Maybe the books boom has
affected only the top of the educational pile. Either way, Chancellor Gordon Brown plans to change things for
the bottom of the class. In his pre-budget report, he announced the national project of Reading Recovery to
help the children struggling most.
     Reading Recovery is aimed at six-year-olds, who receive four months of individual daily half-hour classes
with a specially trained teacher. An evaluation earlier this year reported that children on the scheme made 20
months' progress in just one year, whereas similarly weak readers without special help made just five months'
progress, and so ended the year even further below the level expected for their age.
     International research tends to find that when British children leave primary school they read well, but read
less - often for fun than those elsewhere. Reading for fun matters because children who are keen on reading
can expect lifelong pleasure and loving books is an excellent indicator of future educational success. According
to the OECD, being a regular and enthusiastic reader is of great advantage.

1. Which of the following is true of Paragraph 1?

A. Many children's books have been adapted from films.
B. Many high-quality children's books have been published.
C. The sales of classics have led to the popularity of films.
D. The sales of presents for children have increased.

2. Statistics suggested that ___.

A. the number of top students increased with the use of computers.
B. a decreasing number of children showed interest in reading.
C. a minority of primary school children read properly.
D. a large percentage of children read regularly.

3. What do we know about Reading Recovery?

A. An education of it will be made sometime this year.
B. Weak readers on the project were the most hardworking.
C. It aims to train special teachers to help children with reading.
D. Children on the project showed noticeable progress in reading.

4. Reading for fun is important because book-loving children ____.

A. takes greater advantage of the project.
B. shows the potential to enjoy a long life.
C. is likely to succeed in their education.
D. would make excellent future researchers.

5. The aim of this text would probably be ____.

A. to overcome primary school pupils' reading difficulty.
B. to encourage the publication of more children's books.
C. to remind children of the importance of reading for fun.
D. to introduce a way to improve early childhood reading.

     One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a "sea of technology"
rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear-producing TV and computer games are leading to a
serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will changes the wild places of the world,
its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child's play.
    Each of us has a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last
generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up
to be protectors of natural landscapes. "If the decline in parks use continues across North America, who
will defend parks against encroachment (蠶食)?" asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.
     Without having a nature experience, kids, can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge
enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress
levels, creativity and cognitive (認知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than
their parents-and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better
academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters (培養) leadership by the
smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-
old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be
the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.
     Kids are not to blame. They are over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to
time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (儀式) of passage.
     Everyone, from developers, to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of
the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that cement (增強) love, respect and
need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This
could yet be our greatest cause.

1. The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that _____.

A. kids missing the sense of wonder outdoors
B. parks are in danger of being gradually encroached
C. Richard Louv is the author of Last Child in the Woods
D. children are expected to develop into protectors of nature

2. According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will _____.

A. keep a high sense of wonder
B. be over-protected by their parents
C. be less healthy both physically and mentally
D. change wild places and creatures for the better

3. According to the author, children's breaking an arm is _____.

A. the fault on the part of their parents
B. the natural experience in their growing up
C. the result of their own carelessness in play
D. the effect of their repetitive stress from computers

4. In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to _____.

A. blame children for getting lost in computer games
B. encourage children to protect parks from encroachment
C. show his concern about children's lack of experience in nature
D. inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around

     There are two main forms of teaching in Nottingham University: seminar (研討會) and lecture. They
are very different from the sort of teaching most often used in schools and colleges.
     In seminars you will be taught with discussion focusing on a text or topic set in advance in a friendly
and informal atmosphere. The purpose is to provide an opportunity to try out new ideas and to think
through difficulties with fellow- learners. Students develop friendships through groups, as well as learning
more about other people's ideas. You can also know your tutors as an individual rather than a face at the
end of the room.
     Lectures are the most formal. There may be over a hundred in the audience and the lecture Mil last about
fifty minutes. The value of the lecture is that it can present to a large number of people information which
is not readily available in books, that it can give you an opportunity to hear a specialist develop a coherent
(有條理的) argument, and that it can show visual material to a wide audience.
     Your typical week's work will feel strange after school or college since there are fewer timetabled
teaching hours. Each week in the first year you may attend about six lectures and four to six seminars or
tutorials (輔導). For the rest of the time you are working on your own, doing the necessary reading in
preparation for tutorials or writing seminar papers. When writing an essay or carrying out project work,
you can often discuss with your tutor about the title and topic.

1. The purpose of the passage is ______.

A. to introduce two main forms of teaching
B. to persuade you to try out new ideas
C. to stress the importance of discussion
D. to make you believe that seminar is more helpful

2. One of the values of the lecture is _____.

A. to make friends through groups
B. to learn more about other people's ideas
C. to offer a chance to discuss with a specialist
D. to present to students information not found in books

3. Your typical week's work in the university will feel strange because ______.

A. you may have no project work after class
B. you may give lectures and seminars
C. you may have fewer timetabled teaching hours
D. you may write seminar papers with fellow-learners

4. We can learn from the passage that ______.

A. seminar is better than lecture
B. lecture is better than seminar
C. seminar is more formal than lecture
D. lecture is more formal than seminar

     Do you sometimes put off doing your homework on a school night to watch TV? A new study says that
middle school students who watch TV or play video games during the week do worse in school. The study
also says that watching TV and playing video games on weekends don't affect school performance that much.
     "They could watch a lot on weekends and it didn't seem to connect with doing worse in school," said Dr.
Iman Sharif of Children's Hospital at Montefiore in New York. The study appears in the October issue of
Pediatrics. Researchers drew their conclusions after surveying (調查) 4,500 students in New Hampshire and
Vermont middle schools.
     To reach their findings, researchers didn't look at grades or test scores. Instead, they asked students to
rate their own performance on a scale ranging from "excellent" to "below".
    Other studies have found a connection between kids' ability to learn and the amount of TV they watch.
One study even found that kids with televisions in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math
and language arts tests than kids without them.
     What should a kid do? The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends (推薦) that kids watch TV
no more than two hours and that televisions be kept out of children's rooms. Weekend viewing should be
kept to four hours at most each day.

1. What could be the best title for the passage?

A. Study Says Students Shouldn't Watch TV on a School Night
B. Watching TV Has an Effect on Children
C. Students Shouldn't Watch TV
D. There Is a Connection Between Watching TV and Study

2. According to Dr. Iman Sharif, _____.

A. watching TV on weekends affects school performance
B. the less students watch TV on weekends,the better they do at school
C. watching TV on weekends doesn't affect school performance
D. the more students watch TV on weekends, the worse they do at school

3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Researchers did the survey by studying the students' test scores.
B. Students' learning ability has nothing to do with the amount of TV they watch.
C. Children with televisions in their rooms do better at school than those without them.
D. Children shouldn't watch TV for more than four hours each day at weekends.
