Some few stopped to gaze at Oliver for a moment or two, or turned round to st 2 at him as they hurried by; but none r
21、elieved him, or troubled themselves to inquire how he came there. He had no heart to beg. And there he sat. He had been crouching on the step for some time, 3 (wonder) at the great number of public-houses (every other house in Barnet was a tavern, large or small) ; gazing listlessly 4 the coaches as
22、 they passed through, and thinking how strange it seemed that they could do, with e 5 , in a few hours, what it had taken him a whole week of courage and 6 (determine) beyond his years to accomplish; when he was roused by observing that a boy, who had passed him carelessly some minutes before, had r
23、eturned, and was now surveying him most 7 (earnest) from the o 8 side of the way. He took little heed of this at first; but the boy remained in the same attitude of close observation so long, that Oliver 9 (raise) his head, and returned his steady look. Upon this, the boy crossed over, and, w 10 clo
24、se up to Oliver, said, “Hello! My covey, what“s the row?“（分数：10.00）八、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)九、Section A(总题数：1，分数：5.00)For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeu
25、r who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home. One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.“ “Do you?“ Einstein s
26、aid with a smile. “Let“s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we“re going. I“m just a name to them.“ Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur. The chauffeur“s memory was excellen
27、t and he was able to give Einstein“s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him. “Professor Einstein,“ he said. “That was a most int
28、eresting talk. I“d be grateful if you would answer a question.“ The chauffeur hurried on. “I“m sorry,“ he said, “but I“m late for my next meeting.“ “I“ll walk with you,“ the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.“ The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve
29、a very difficult mathematical problem. The poor chauffeur couldn“t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It“s so simple,“ he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.“ He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing
30、the chauffeur“s cap. “This man has a maths question,“ he said to Einstein. “It“s so easy I“m sure even you can answer it.“ Summary: Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving 1 on mathematics. His cha
31、uffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next 2 where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult 3 . The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I“m sure my cha
32、uffeur knows 4 it.“ Then he pointed to Einstein still standing 5 beside the car.（分数：5.00）十、Section B(总题数：3，分数：5.00)Resources can be said to be scarce in both an absolute and relative sense: the surface of the Earth is finite, imposing absolute scarcity; but the scarcity that concerns economists is t
33、he relative scarcity of resources for different uses. Materials used for one purpose can not at the same time be used for other purposes; if the quantity of an input is limited, the increased use of it in one manufacturing process must cause it to become less available for other uses. The cost of a
34、product in terms of money may not measure its true cost to society. The true cost of, say, the construction of a supersonic jet is the value of the schools and refrigerators that will never be built as a result. Every act of production uses up some of society“s available resources; it means the fore
35、going of an opportunity to produce something else. In deciding how to use resources most effectively to satisfy the wants of the community, this opportunity cost must ultimately be taken into account. In a market economy the price of a good and the quantity supplied depend on the cost of making it,
36、and that cost, ultimately, is the cost of not making other goods. The market mechanism enforces this relationship. The cost of, say, a pair of shoes is the price of the leather, the labor, the fuel, and other elements used in producing them. However, the price of these inputs, in turn, depends on wh
37、at they can produce elsewhereif the leather can be used to produce handbags that are valued highly by consumers, the prices of leather would be correspondingly higher.（分数：3.00）(1).Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.

39、llowing questions briefly according to the passage. What determines the price of goods in a market economy? （分数：1.00）_17.Using land for a house and for a park, which one best reflects a cost to society as defined in the passage? （分数：1.00）_十一、Section C(总题数：3，分数：5.00)If art seeks to divorce itself fro
40、m meaningful and associative images, if it holds material alone as its objective, then I think that the material itself ought to have the greatest possible plasticity, the greatest potentialities for the development of shapes and the creating of relationships. For that reason I think that the sculpt
41、ure which has been created with a view to being form alone has been a great deal more successful and interesting than has been the painting in that vein. The sculptor sets out with two pre-existing advantages: one, that he must have craftsmanship, and the other, that he works in the round. He does n
42、ot have to stimulate depth nor create illusions of depth because he works in volumein three-dimensional form. Thus Noguchi, working in marble, is able to develop relationships in three-dimensions rather than two and yet retain both simplicity and unity. He has at his disposal the advantages of light
43、 and space, and the natural translucence and glow of marble, all of which he exploits and reveals with great elegance. Henry Moore is one of the great contemporary imaginers who has brought new materials and new concepts into sculptural form. He discovers the naturally heroic character of bronze and
44、 exploits feelingly the graining and fine surfaces of wood. Undoubtedly his most remarkable feat has been the surrounding of open space and his use of such space as a sculptural material. But beauty and craft and idea are still paramount with Moore and he never obliterates these qualities in the sho
45、ck of the new.（分数：3.00）(1).Complete the following sentences with information given in the passage in a maximum of 3 words for each blank.

A good hook may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in
49、 life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction. With a good book in our hands we will never be lonely.
