14、tcards suggest. It also offers towns and cities with a rich cultural life, a good mix of accommodation and places to eat and drink. Friendly and welcoming, it is an interesting and colorful all-season destination, where landscapes and the environment, sport and leisure pursuits, heritage and history

15、, culture and cuisine are all part of a rewarding experience. The best reason for choosing to go on holiday to Scotland is: one of the last places inside the crowded and frenetic European Union where it is possible to be alone isolated countryside. This is not to say that Scotland, like everywhere e

16、lse, does not have its tourist traps, its crowded roads or its popular beauty spots. But it is relatively easy to escape from them. It would be a mistake to think that Scotland is merely an extension of England. Indeed, no attitude is capable of causing greater offence to the Scots. They successfull

17、y resisted English attempts at domination for seven hundred years, and many differences between the two countries persist. Scotland“s history, embodied in its castles, battlefields, and ancient links with France, Flanders and Scandinavia, is special.（分数：12.00）(1).Scotland is _.（分数：3.00）A.full of liv

18、ely towns and citiesB.similar to many other countries in EuropeC.as impressive as postcards suggestD.good for sports(2).In Scotland, tourists _.（分数：3.00）A.are always alone in the countryB.can easily get away from crowds and trafficC.get trapped in popular beauty spotsD.can be lost in such countrysid

20、came part of England for seven hundred years六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behaviour for a man to smoke on the street. No man who though

21、t of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room. Customs are also different from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn“t it matter? What about table manner? Should you use both hands when

22、you are eating? The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their

23、seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o“clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay. The important thing to remember about social customs is not to d

24、o anything that might make other people feel uncomfortableespecially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a dinner party. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly pick

25、ed up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.（分数：12.00）(1).“Bad manners“ in the last sentence means _.（分数：3.00）A.uglyB.dishonestC.impoliteD.shameful(2).Which of the following do you think is the best title for this p

26、assage?（分数：3.00）A.Social Customs and Behaviour.B.Social Life.C.American and British Customs.D.Promptness Is Important.(3).According to the text, the best host _.（分数：3.00）A.tries his best to make his guests feel comfortableB.makes his guests feel excitedC.tries to avoid being naughty to his guestsD.t

27、ries to avoid being foolish(4).The writer of this article may agree with which of the following?（分数：3.00）A.The guest who ate his peas with a knife.B.The other guests who were amused or shocked.C.The host who picked up his knife and began eating in the same way.D.None of the above.七、Passage Three(总题数

28、：1，分数：12.00)To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun. Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. P

29、robably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C. We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the um

30、brella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the ra

31、in were the ancient Romans. During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France, and later on in England. By the e

32、ighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn“t until the twentieth century that women“s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.

33、（分数：12.00）(1).The first use of umbrella was as _.（分数：3.00）A.protection against rainB.a shade against the sunC.a symbol of powerD.a symbol of honor(2).The umbrella was used only by royalty or those in high office _.（分数：3.00）A.in Europe in the eighteenth centuryB.in ancient Egypt and BabylonC.in the F

35、 popular and cheap in ancient times.(4).Which of the following is the best title for the passage?（分数：3.00）A.The Invention of Umbrella.B.The History of Umbrella.C.UmbrellaA Symbol of Honor.D.Who Used Umbrella First?八、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.00)People need to be active to be healthy. Our modem lifest

36、yle and all the conveniences we“ve become used to have made us sitting much of the time-and that“s dangerous for our health. Sitting around in front of the TV or the computer, riding in the car for even a short trip to the store and using elevators instead of stairs, all contribute to our inactivity

37、. Physical inactivity is as dangerous to our health as smoking! Add up your activities during the day in periods of at least 10 minutes each. Start slowly . and build up. If you“re already doing some light activities move up to more moderate ones. A little is good, but more is better if you want to

38、achieve health benefits. Scientists say add up 60 minutes of physical activity every day to stay healthy or improve your health. Time needed depends on effort-as you progress to moderate activities, you can cut down to thirty minutes, four days a week. Physical activity doesn“t have to be very hard

39、to improve your health. This goal can be reached by building physical activities into your daily routine. Just add up in periods of at least ten minutes each throughout the day. After three months of regular physical activity, you will notice a difference-people often say getting started is the hard

40、est part. (From Handbook for Canada“s Physical Activity Guide to Healthy Active Living p.4. Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology, Ottawa, Ontario, 1998)（分数：12.00）(1).Nowadays people _.（分数：3.00）A.are less active than in the pastB.are more active than in the pastC.are sitting as much as they used

43、ssage Five(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Japan bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941. The United States was mad at the Japanese so they made many Japanese-Americans leave their homes. They were put in camps with barbed wire around the outside of the camps. Many Japanese-American young men were called into the army. Some of

44、them joined the US Military Intelligence Service or MIS. The MIS was a secret group that fought the Japanese soldiers. This secret group translated important maps and papers. They questioned Japanese prisoners. Another task they did was to translate diaries written in Japanese. Sometimes Japanese so

45、ldiers hid in caves to hide from the Americans. The MIS would try to get the scared soldiers to leave the caves. This was known as “cave flushing.“ Some of the soldiers would give up and leave the caves. Other Japanese would jump to their deaths. The MIS never got awards for their efforts until the

46、year 2000. Then they were rewarded for their brave acts in World War II. It took almost sixty years for them to be honored. Gayle Yamada has made a film about the brave Japanese-American MIS. The film is called “Uncommon Courage“ and is a true story. Hopefully, Yamada“s film and the movie, “Pearl Ha

47、rbor,“ will not cause people to hate Japanese-Americans or any other race.（分数：12.00）(1).The letters MIS stood for _.（分数：3.00）A.Missing Infantry SoldiersB.Military Intelligence ServiceC.Military Intelligence SoldiersD.Military Infamy Service(2).The MIS finally received recognition _.（分数：3.00）A.during
