Maybe it got the name common cold because its more common in winter. The fact is, thoug

17、h, being cold doesnt have anything to do with getting one. Colds are caused by the spread of rhinoviruses, and, at least so far, medical science is better at telling you how to avoid getting one than how to get rid of one.Children are the most common way cold viruses are spread to adults, because th

18、ey have more colds than adultsan average of about eight per year. Why do kids seem so much more easily to get colds than their parents? Simple. They havent had the opportunity to become immune to many cold viruses.There are more than 150 different cold viruses, and you never have the same one twice.

19、 Being infected by one makes you immune to itbut only it.Colds are usually spread by direct contact, not sneezing or coughing. From another persons hand to your hand and then to your nose or eyes is the most common route. The highest concentration of cold viruses anywhere is found under the thumbnai

20、ls of a boy, although the viruses can survive for hours on skin or other smooth surfaces.Hygiene is your best defense. Wash your hands frequently preferably with a disinfectant soap, especially when children in your household have colds.But even careful hygiene wont ward off every cold. So, what wor

21、ks when a coughing, sneezing, runny nose strikes?The old prescription of two aspirins, lots of water, and bed rest is a good place to start. But youll also find some of the folk remedies worth using. Hot mixtures of sugar (or honey), lemon, and water have real benefits.（分数：5.00）(1).According to the

22、essay, you may have a cold because_.（分数：1.00）A.the weather is too coldB.the spread of rhinoviruses gets people infectedC.another persons coughing passes the cold to youD.you wash your hands too often(2).The best way to keep yourself from getting colds is_.（分数：1.00）A.to keep yourself cleanB.to use a

25、ime(5).When one is having a cold, he may often have all the following symptoms EXCEPT_.（分数：1.00）A.coughingB.having a sore throatC.having a runny noseD.having a stomachache九、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)A number of recent books have reworked subjects, forms and writing techniques. Todays children read storie

26、s about divorce, death, drugs, air pollution, political extremism and violence. Relying on the magic of the illustrator, all kinds of books are being published.Before they know to read, babies can play with books made of cloth or books made to take in the bath. Later on, they are given picture books

27、 that may be cubical (立方形的) or triangular, outsized or very small. They also like work-books which come with watercolors and paintbrushes, and comic books (漫画册) filled with details where they have to spot a figure hidden among thousands of others.Not that the traditional childrens books are being ne

28、glected. There are still storybooks where the pages pop up (跳起) when they are opened, to make a forest or a castle. Among the latest ideas are interactive stories where readers choose the plot (情节) or ending they want, and books on CD, which are very popular, in rich industrialized countries.The pub

29、lic has enthusiastically greeted the wealth of creativity displayed by publishers. “Previously, giving a child a book as often seen as improper,“ says Canadian author Marie-France Hebert. Her books, published by a French-language publisher, sell like hot cakes in hundreds of thousands of copies. “Th

30、eres a real appetite for reading these days and I try to get across to children the passion for reading which is food for the mind and the heart, like a medicine or a vitamin.（分数：5.00）(1).“Reworked“ as used in Paragraph 1 means “_“（分数：1.00）A.rewordedB.rewrittenC.processedD.revised(2).In the second p

31、aragraph the author lists the kinds of books_.（分数：1.00）A.recently publishedB.of various shapesC.babies likeD.popular among children(3).Which of the following statements is true?（分数：1.00）A.Books made of cloth came out earlier than picture books.B.When you buy work-books you will be given free comic b

34、f publishers十、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)As regards social conventions, we must say a word about the well known English class system. This is an embarrassing subject for English people, and one they tend to be ashamed of, though during the present century class-consciousness has grown less and less, and t

35、he class system less rigid. But it still exists below the surface. Broadly speaking, it means there are two classes, the “middle class“ and the “working class“. (We shall ignore for a moment the old “upper class“, including the hereditary aristocracy, since it is extremely small in numbers; but some

36、 of its members have the right to sit in the House of Lords, and some newspapers take a surprising interest in their private life.) The middle class consists chiefly of well to do businessmen and professional people of all kinds. The working class consists chiefly of manual and unskilled workers.The

37、 most obvious difference between them is in their accent. Middle class people use slightly varying kinds of “received pronunciation“ which is the kind of English spoken by BBC announcers and taught to overseas pupils. Typical working class people speak in many different local accents which are gener

38、ally felt to be rather ugly and uneducated. One of the biggest barriers of social equality in England is the two class education system. To have been to a so called “public school“ immediately marks you out as one of the middle class. The middle classes tend to live a more formal life than working c

39、lass people, and are usually more cultured. Their midday meal is “lunch“ and they have a rather formal evening meal called “dinner“, whereas the working mans dinner, if his working hours permit, is at mid-day, and his smaller, late evening meal is called supper.As we have said, however, the class sy

40、stem is much less rigid than it was, and for a long time it has been government policy to reduce class distinctions. Working class students very commonly receive a university education and enter the professions, and working class incomes have grown so much recently that the distinctions between the

41、two classes are becoming less and less clear. However, regardless of ones social status, certain standards of politeness are expected of everybody, and a well bred person is polite to everyone he meets, and treats a laborer with the same respect he gives an important businessman. Servility inspires

42、both embarrassment and dislike. Even the word “sir“, except in school and in certain occupations (e.g. commerce, the army, etc.) sounds too servile to be commonly used.（分数：5.00）(1).The middle class mainly refers to people_.（分数：1.00）A.who were born as aristocratB.who have the right to sit in the Hous

43、e of LordsC.who speak in many different local accentsD.who are prosperous businessmen or who work in some professions(2).The most obvious difference between the working class and the middle class in English is their_.（分数：1.00）A.dressB.workC.accentD.meal(3).Why isnt the word “sir“ commonly used in Br

44、itain?（分数：1.00）A.Because it sounds too servile and is likely to cause embarrassment.B.Because it can only be used in some certain occupations.C.Because it is an impolite word.D.Because it shows that the speaker is not a well-bred person.(4).The “upper class“ in England today_.（分数：1.00）A.are extremel

45、y small in number so that media pays no attention to themB.still uses old words like “sir“ in their everyday lifeC.includes the hereditary aristocracyD.refers only to the royal family(5).Which of the following is NOT true about the English class system?（分数：1.00）A.It is an embarrassing subject for En

46、glish people.B.Working class students cannot receive a university education.C.The class system is much less rigid than it was.D.The class system still exists below the surface.十一、Text 4(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of

47、the speakers of a language in any situation regardless of the level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all speakers of a language and u

48、sed in informal speech or writing, but not considered appropriate for more formal situations. Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a large number of speakers but not accepted as good, formal usage by the majority. Col

49、loquial expressions and even slang may be found in standard dictionaries but will be so identified. Both colloquial usage and slang are more common in speech than in writing.Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang expressions enjoy momentary
