Section A 25 Do you often use shampoo? Do you put ketchup on your food? Have yo

14、u ever visited a sauna? If you think these words are originally English, youd better think a-gain. In fact, each of these words comes from a different language. Shampoo, for example , is actually a Hindi word and comes from India. This word originally meant “massage. “ In hair shops in India, barber

15、s massage your head while washing your hair. Over time, British people in India came to use this word for the washing liquid. Almost everyone knows ketchup. People all over the world like to pour this tomato sauce on their French fries or sandwiches. However, this word is originally Chinese (from kc

16、tsiap, a fish sauce). In the 1600s, British and Dutch sailors took this fish sauce back to Europe. Over time, people added a tomato flavor to it. But the name remained basically the same. Sauna, a popular type of public steam room and shower facility, comes from the Finnish language. It first became

17、 famous at the Olympics. Athletes from Britain and Germany saw Finnish athletes use saunas after training. Later, the general public all over Europe started using this style of bathing too. Now, we use this word to describe all kinds of steam rooms. English is full of many wonderful borrowed words f

Section B 30 Would you like to orbit the Earth inside the International Space Station? Now you can take a space holidayfor a price. This is due to a r

22、ecent decision by top space officials of the United States, Russia, Canada, Japan and the European Space Agency. Last April, American businessman Dennis Tito reportedly paid between twelve-million and twenty-million dollars to spend one week on the International Space Station. NASA had strongly obje

23、cted to the Russian plan to permit a civilian on the costly research vehicle. After two years of negotiations , space officials have agreed on a process to train private citizens to take trips to the International Space Station. NASA recently agreed to conditions that will permit Russia to sell trip

24、s to the space station. The trips are planned by an American company called Space Adventures Limited of Arlington, Virginia. The company calls itself “ the worlds leading space tourism company. “ The company has sold a space trip to Mark Shuttleworth, a South African businessman. In April, Mister Sh

25、uttle-worth will be launched into space from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Yet, the average citizen will not be able to travel into space in the near future. Space Adventures Limited sells a training program for space flight that costs two-hundred-thousand dollars. That price does not inclu

26、de the cost of the trip to the International Space Station. That holiday in space costs twenty-million dollars. Candidates for adventure space travel trips must be in excellent health and must pass difficult health tests. They must receive a lot of training and all successful candidates who wish to

27、travel to the International Space Station must be able to read and speak English. 31 How much did American businessman Dennis Tito pay to spend one week on the International Space Station? 32 Why Mark Shuttleworth, a South African businessman, is mentioned in the passage? 33 What was NASAs original

28、attitude towards the Russian plan to permit a civilian on the International Space Station? 34 How much should one pay for a trip to the International Space Station? 35 According to the last paragraph, what conditions must a candidate of space travel meet? Section C 35 In comparison with the lives of

29、 other postgraduate students, the life of a student doctor is far from easy. Despite the heavy workload, it seems that the more you learn, the more you relies what you still need to study. As a result, it is not unusual for students to drop out. Misguided teachers attempt to simplify matters in an e

30、nvironment that demands the very best of its practitioners. The situation is little better in the year or two years after qualifying. Poorly paid for such long hours, many junior doctors find themselves becoming disillusioned with medicine. The more depressed they become, the more likely they are to

31、 look elsewhere for a career, wasting up to seven years of training and education. An unfortunate statistic is that of those that qualify as doctors, 18% do not remain in the profession for more than three years. 36 The life of a student doctor is_than the other postgraduate students. 37 For student

32、 doctors, the more you learn, the_ you relies what you still need to study. 38 Its usual for doctor students to_. 39 With_, many junior doctors find themselves becoming disillusioned with medicine. 40 A statistic shows that of those that qualify as doctors, _do not remain in the profession for more

33、than three years. Section D 40 Certain birds are, more often than not, considered bad luck, or even frightening, a sign of impending death. All over the world, both crows and ravens (乌鸦 ) have some connection with war and death. In early times, crows and ravens were thought to accompany the gods of

34、war, or be signs of their imminent arrival in an area. Later, this belief became more general, and these birds, crows more particularly, were thought to be harbingers (预兆 ) of ill fortune or, in some cases, guides to the afterlife. Woe be it to the person who saw a single crow or raven flying overhe

35、ad, for this most certainly was a portent of death in the near future. Interestingly, though potentially had luck for people individually, the raven is considered to be good luck for the crown of England. So much so, in fact, that a “ raven master“ is even today an actual government position in the

36、Tower of London. He takes care of the ravens there and also clips their wings, ensuring that these birds can never fly far from the seat of the British government. This way, the kingdom will never fall to ill fortune. Another bird which is also still considered to play a part in peoples fortunes is

37、the swallow. Depending on how and when it is seen, the swallow can be a harbinger of either good-or-ill-for-tune. Perhaps inspired by the swallows red-brown breast, people initially related the swallow with the death of Christ. Thus, people who saw a swallow fly through their house considered it a p

38、ortent of death. Later, however, farmers began to consider swallows signs of good fortune, and believed that any barn that has swallow living in it was sure to be blessed in the following year, Farmers also have to beware of killing a swallow; that would be certain to end any good luck they might ha

39、ve had. Though many people think these superstitions (迷信 ) are old wivestales, there is actually some evidence to support them. For example, crows and ravens, being scavengers, frequent the aftermath of battlefields. Thus, large numbers of crows and ravens were a good indication of war in an area. A

40、s well, swallows feed on insects that can cause infection in cattle. Thus, a farmer who has many swallows in his barn may actually have healthier animals on his farm. So, the next time you feel inclined to laugh at an old wivestale, you had better find out if there is any truth to it first! Summary;

41、 Some people are inclined to believe certain animals can bring good or bad luck. The majority of superstition about crows and ravens suggest that these birds bring had luck. People should【 41】 _when they see such birds. It may be that these birds have bad reputations because they are scavengers. Bec

42、ause these birds often【 42】 _terrible events, like battles, people connected them with【 43】_. There is even an old【 44】 _that says when a single crow flies over your head,【 45】 _is in the near future! Section A 45 What is a brand anyway? A brand isnt just a logo on a shirt or an ice-cream van. Its m

43、uch more than that. To be successful a brand has to have rational characteristics【 46】 i. e. , it has to be competitive on price or quality or service, and it has to have a “personality“ that charms and seduces. It is a mix of emotional factors, such as “Do I like it?“ and “Is it me?“ and rational f

44、actors such as, “ Is it cheaper or better or quicker? “【 47】 Getting things in balance is tricky, and thats why so many brands dont succeed. Just lets look at all the ways brands can fail. Brands are vulnerable to fashion. Fizzy drinks such as Coke and Pepsi are now being attacked by stimulation dri

45、nks such as Red Bull. Fast food brands are threatened by salads and other “lite“ foods. McDonalds has recently been in real trouble. Brands are also vulnerable because they get cocky, arrogant and out of touch. They think they know best and dont change with the marketlike the Gap, Levis and Marks La

Now write the letter on the answer sheet. Task 62 The bicycle is a relatively recent invention. It is by

48、far the most economical and environmentally friendly mechanical mode of transport yet invented.
