Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing no more than three words from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.  Questions 1-5 are based on the following passage.The City of the Future  What will city life be like in the future? Some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. They predict that cities will become more and more crowded. As the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. This overcrowding will cause other problems—more crime, dirtier streets, and worse problems with traffic than we have now. How will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity), and housing? Because life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. For these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in urban areas.  How can we solve such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic? In some cities, thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets because there is so little suitable housing—and because rents are so high. The crime rate isn’t going down. Instead, it is increasing so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. Traffic is also getting worse. More and more often, traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several blocks. These urban problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no hope for the future of the city.  Los Angeles, California, for instance, has no subway system and the buses are slow. Instead, most commuters drive many miles from their homes to work. Many of these drivers spend several hours each day on busy freeways. New York, by contrast, has a mass transit system—buses, commuter trains, and subways. Because the public transportation is crowded and dirty, however, many people drive private cars, and the traffic jams are worse than in Los Angeles.  On the other hand, some cities have clean, fast, and pleasant public transportation systems. In Paris, France, and Toronto, Canada, for example, anyone can use mass transit to move quickly from one part of the city to another.  The disadvantages of any modern city are not unique to that city—that is, cities all over the world have to solve the problems of traffic jams, crime, housing, energy, drinking water, and overcrowding. Yet many cities have found answers to one or more of these difficulties. Some European cities, such as Stockholm, Sweden, or London, England, have planned communities that provide people with apartments, jobs, shopping centers, green space, entertainment, and transportation. Many U.S. cities are rebuilding their downtown areas. Urban planners can learn from one another. They can try solutions that have been successful in other parts of the world.  Summary:  Some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. They say that cities will become more and more crowded and many other problems will be caused by this  1 Due to the hard life, people do not want to live in  2 These urban problems such as overcrowding, crime and traffic have been getting worse, so many people  3 for the future of the city. However, these disadvantages of any modern city are not unique to that city. All the cities all over the world must solve the problems and fortunately, many of them have found answers to one or more of these difficulties. For example,  4 or London has planned communities providing people with apartments, jobs and so on. Besides, many U. S. cities  5 In a word, solutions that have been successful in a place should be adopted and tried in another place.

解析:
The pie chart given above reflects the public's attitude towards food safety.According to the figures,44.7%of the people take neutral attitude towards food safety,ranking first.The percentage of consumers being a little worried about food safety ranks the third among all.making up t 5.8%.There is no denying that food safety is related to people's health and basic livelihood.However,many producers tend to adopt poor-quality raw materials to lower costs,resulting in poor-quality products prevailing in our society,which not only poses threats to people's health,bul also wreaks havoc(破坏)on the economic development and social stability.Particularly,when the authorities concerned fail to give direct control and supervision,these profit-driven companies are unlikely to shoulder social responsibility.To conclude,such a trend will probably develop more dramatically in the future.Therefore,it is advised that administrators and the authorities should keep taking measures to reverse such trend,and it is only by consistent and persistent efforts that they can ultimately eliminate the misdeeds.

As Iraq struggles to recover from conflict and severe economic hardship to a society that is once again able to stand on its own two feet, the United nations has convened a meeting on 23, June to ensure that the Iraqis immediate humanitarian needs are met and the transition to longer-term reconstruction is fully underway by the beginning of the next year.
Indeed, such actions and achievements in responding to anticipated humanitarian needs in Iraq have played a crucial role in averting a much larger potential crisis. Even as the conflict was underway, national UN staff continued to carry out their duties. Aid activities under the Oil for Food Programme in Iraq’s three northern govern orates never stopped.1 National staff of the World Food Programme worked to open corridors from Turkey, Jordan and Iran into Iraq.2UNICEF local staff delivered humanitarian supplies and worked to maintain the supply of potable water.3WHO local staff supported Iraqi health professionals.4 Under the Oil for Food Programme, UNDP worked to maintain and restore electric power supplies, especially in the north.5
As of today, more than 800, 000 metric tonnes of food—enough to feed almost all of Iraq’s 27 million people for two months have been dispatched to Iraq.6 An average of 3.5 million litres of water per day is being tankered7 to hospitals, health centres and communities in the south and in the Baghdad area. Basic medicines, vaccines and health supplies have been delivered8 to facilities throughout the country. Agencies have helped repair and restore water, sanitation and power facilities, as well as schools, which have also been receiving essential education supplies.
But great needs remain. Due to the lack of a functioning economy, combined with prolonged reliance on the ration system, virtually all of the population of Iraq will require food aid in the short run in order to survive.9 The Flash Appeal for Iraq, asking for$2. 2 billion to cover needs for six months, was issued in March. Generous donor funding (approximately$900 million), and access to the resources of the Oil for Food Programme ($1. 1 billion), have meant that $2 billion is already available for humanitarian aid for the people of Iraq. The revised humanitarian appeal for Iraq seeks to meet the needs of the Iraqi people up to the end of the year. Given the healthy funding status, only an additional US $259 million is required.
Food aid alone accounts for two-thirds of the aid being requested through the Appeal. While the food sector, accounting for some $1.56 billion, is fully funded,10 funding is still required for equally important interventions in other sectors. Most essential needs must be still met: health care; clean water and sanitation; electricity; infrastructure repair; shelter; mine action and mine awareness; education; food security and agriculture; assistance for internally displaced persons and returning refugees. Given the urgent needs in other parts of the world in much of Africa, Afghanistan, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, as well as other places, it is essential that donor countries ensure that contributions to Iraq are in addition to and not in place of— funding for other emergencies.

Directions:In this part, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary with the appropriate words from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.  Questions 1-5 are based on the following passage.  Cosmetics have been used throughout history. The ancient Greeks, the Egyptians, and the Romans all used various kinds of makeup. Some of these cosmetics were used to improve their appearance. Others were used to protect their skin. But in some cases, things used for makeup were dangerous, or even deadly!  Some of the first skin care treatments started in Egypt. In fact, Cleopatra was known to use them. She thought a bath in milk and honey left her skin silky smooth. Egyptians also developed some of the earliest sunscreens. They used oils and creams for protection against the sun and dry winds. Egyptian and other ancient cultures also used various powders on their skin for beauty. Egyptians used black kohl around their eyes. Romans put white chalk on their faces. And Indians painted red henna on their bodies.  Most of the ancient cosmetic powders, oils, and creams were harmless. But in the name of beauty, some people applied dangerous chemicals and poisons to their skin. During the Italian Renaissance, women wore white powder made of lead on their faces. Of course, doctors now know lead is like a poison for our bodies.  Also around the time of the Renaissance, women in Italy put drops of belladonna in their eyes. Belladonna is a very poisonous plant. The poison in the plant affects the nerves in the body. By putting belladonna drops in her eyes, a woman’s pupils would become very large. People thought this made her more beautiful. Actually, this is why the plant is called belladonna. In Italian, belladonna means “beautiful woman.”  When Elizabeth I was queen of England in the late 1500s, some rather dangerous cosmetics were also used by women there. Women were using rouge made with mercury. They were also using special hair dye made with lead and sulphur. The dye was designed to give people red hair, the same color as the queen’s hair. Over time, the dye made people’s hair fall out. Finally, women using this dye ended up bald, like the queen, and had to wear wigs.  Summary:  Although people have used cosmetics throughout history, not all of them have been safe. In fact, some of them have been quite  1 to people. For example, long ago in Italian  2 , people thought women with big pupils were beautiful. Therefore, in the  3 of beauty, women began to put  4 of belladonna in their eyes to make their pupils larger. Today we know belladonna is poisonous, and it can affect the  5 in the body.

正确答案: 1.dangerous. 文章第一段最后一句提到 But in some cases, things used for makeup were dangerous,因而可以得知该题答案是dangerous。
2.renaissance. 第四段提到意大利文艺复兴时期,女性喜欢大眼睛,因此答案是renaissance,表示“文艺复兴”时期。
3.name. in the name 在……的名义下。in the name of beauty在美的名义下。
4.drops. 文章第四段第一行指出women put drops of belladonna in their eye,摘要中应填写drops。
5.nerves. 文章第四段第二句说明the poison in the(belladonna)plant affects the nerves in the body,因此答案是nerves,说明对人体的神经系统有害。

Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in the spaces 76 - 80. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.  Questions 1- 5 are based on the following passage.  Lack of culture, or rather an excess of the wrong sort of culture, is often considered to be synonymous with disadvantage. Most commonly associated with low cultural standards are low levels of reading, and some thirteen per cent of all twenty-three-year-olds feel they have trouble with reading and writing. One way of compensating such disadvantaged young people is thought to be to provide them with the culture they lack: in particular, high quality reading material.  Whereas forty to fifty per cent of young people aged sixteen to twenty rarely read a book, the majority appear to read comics. In 1991 sales of Viz, a UK comic exceeded one million copies per issue, making it the fourth best-selling periodical in Britain. The reading of comics, however, is not restricted to young people: by 1992 it was estimated that two out of three men aged eighteen to fifty-three read Viz. The number of imitators of this comic has spawned, including Zit, Gas, BrainDamageand Swiz,indicates the extent of the influence it wields.  The reading of comics was traditionally regarded by the educational establishment with considerable suspicion. Whereas the received arts were always assumed to exert an improving or civilizing influence, comics were thought to “rot children’s brains”, to lower educational standards and to threaten morality. They were, and are, assumed to be an inferior cultural form; their readers assumed to come from the lower social classes, to be low educational attainers and to be easily led astray.  Over the past decade, perceptions of comics have shifted. Since the 1970s, the comic format has been commonly used to represent the interests of various disenfranchises groups—community groups, the unemployed, welfare recipients of—who became more conscious of a climate conditioned by other contemporary movements such as civil rights, consumerism, self-help and de-institutionalization. As cultural signifiers, comics have become the subject matter of academic courses in cultural and media studies. Indeed, young people’s cultural activities, grounded in the commercial rather than the subsidized sector, are beginning to merit the attention of the arts establishment.  Summary:  Low cultural standards,such as  1 of reading,a difficulty experienced by many young adults, are often associated with disadvantage. While around half of sixteen to twenty-year-olds rarely read books,most will read comics. Although many comics in Britain are  2 and have lots of readers,the educational establishment sill considers them to be an  3 appealing only to the lower levels of society. However, attitudes are beginning to change as the format has been adopted to  4 of disenfranchised groups. Certain comics have been included in the courses of  5 studies. Young people’s cultural activities are beginning to attract the attention of the arts establishment.

正确答案:
1.low levels 第一段中间提到Most commonly associated with ... they have trouble with reading and writing.与低文化标准相关联的往往是较低的阅读水平,在年龄为23岁的年轻人中有大约13%的人感觉他们在读写方面有困难。
2.best-selling periodicals 摘要中空格的后半句提到and have lots of readers,由此可知空格处应该填与其意思相同的词。文章的第二段指出漫画的销售量很好。所以应该填best-selling periodicals。
3.inferior cultural form 文章的第三段提到The reading of comics was traditionally regarded by the educational establishment with considerable suspicion...They were, and are, assumed to be an inferior cultural form,教育家对人们读漫画书持怀疑态度,漫画书被认为是一种次等的表现文化的形式,漫画书腐蚀人们的心灵,漫画书的阅读者被人们认为来自于较低的社会阶层。由此可知摘要中应该填inferior cultural form。
4.represent the interests 本题答案在文章最后指出“漫画书代表了许多无选举权的团体的利益”,即represent the interests。
5.cultural and media 文章最后一段倒数第二句指出comics have become the subject matter of academic courses in cultural and media studies.漫画已经成为文化和媒体领域中的一门重要课程。故答案为cultural and media。

Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.  Questions 1 - 5 are based on the following passage.The United Kingdom  Britain (or Great Britain) is an island that lies off the north-west coast of Europe. The nearest country is France, which is 20 miles away and from which Britain is separated by the English Channel. The island is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and the North Sea to the east. It comprises the mainlands of England, Wales and Scotland, that is, three countries. Scotland is in the north, while Wales is in the west. Ireland, which is also an island, lies off the west coast of Britain. It consists of Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic. Britain together with Northern Ireland constitute the United Kingdom (UK). Thus, the United Kingdom is composed of four countries, the largest of which is England. The capital city is London, which is situated in south-east England.  The UK has a total area of about 244,100 square kilometres (94,248 square miles). About 70% of the land area is devoted to agriculture, about 7% is wasteland, moorland and mountains, about 13% is devoted to urban development, and 10% is forest and woodland. The northern and western regions of Britain, that is Scotland and Wales, are mainly mountainous and hilly. Parts of the north-west and centre of England also consist of mountains and hills.  Britain has a generally mild and temperate climate. It is, however, subject to frequent changes. It has an average annual rainfall of about 120 centimetres (47 inches).  In 1998 the population of the United Kingdom was nearly 59 million. The density of population was approximately 240 people per square kilometre. However, in England, where 83% of the population live, the density was much higher, about 363 per square kilometre.  In the UK, English is the first language of the vast majority of people. However, in western Wales, Welsh is the first language for many of the people. In Scotland only a small number of people speak Gaelic.  In Britain about 66% of the population say that they are Christian, while fewer than 5% say that they belong to other religions.

The line graph shows audience rating at different time.From the graph,it can be seen clearly that the number of TV audiences is on the rise from 6 a.m.At noon the number of audiences accounts for about 20%of the total population.At 6 p.m.,audience balloons to the peak of the day,reaching approximately 59%,and then the number ofTV audiences drops dramatically.There are several reasons leading to the trend of the audience rating.In the first place,traditional Chinese families would like to get together after dinner,watching news report or other entertainment programmes,therefore 6 p.m.witnesses the highest point of the whole day.Second,the drop of audience rating after 6 p.m.is partly due to the prevalence of Internet.There is a trend that more people resort to virtual space and computer games for entertainment at night.Third,since working people and students are occupied by theirjob sand study at daytime,only retired people and housewives are potential audience.Therefore,audience rating is in accordance with people's pace oflife.Internet has impacted TV audience to some extent.

You should write the article in no fewer than 120 words. Now write your letter on the answer sheet.

正确答案:
The Influence of Popular CultureIt seems that image and appearance are attracting more and more attention in the modern world which is full of material desires. Some believe that it is the rise of popular culture including the media, sport and the fashion industry to blame. It is definitely true that this has somewhat brought about some shallow and egoistic people. However, we absolutely should not attribute this to the popular culture itself.
Popular culture, opposite to exquisite culture, is easy to appreciate and comprehend and is oriented to the common people. Being popular does not mean emphasizing the appearance. The reason why they mislead some people is that they have developed a false concept in their mind. They believe anything popular must be presentational and only related to outer appearance.
Whether the influence of popular culture is positive or negative depends on how people perceive and treat them. Properly used, they can instruct and entertain the public; on the contrary, they can also produce a generation of skin-deep people.

正确答案:
The Best Way to Keep Fit and Healthy A fit and healthy body is the base of wealth and wisdom. Good health enables us to enjoy our life and achieve what we hope for in our career. On the contrary, poor health tends to deprive us of our interest in everything around us. Only by keeping ourselves healthy and strong can we feel energetic and vigorous in studying, working and living a happy life. People aware of the health problems bring up with a lot of ways to keep fit and healthy. However, the best way to keep fit and healthy is to exercise more and eat properly.
Firstly, physical exercise is very crucial in order to keep fit and healthy. In taking part in out-door sports, we are closer to the nature and can take in fresh air. The beauty of nature will keep us clear-headed, which is essential to our health. Secondly, proper nutrition is important for our body, so we have to keep a balanced diet and maintain a regular eating habit. It is important for us to take more fruits and vegetables because they provide vitamins and they help in the process of digestion. At the same time, we should avoid eating too much food rich in sugar and fat.
In conclusion, if we stick to the proper ways of exercise more and eat properly, we’ll lead a healthy life and become as fit as a fiddle.
