Shakespeare is thus continually reminding us of our own experiences and expressing them for us. Moreover, as we grow older and the range（范围） of our experience widens, so his range grows, too. He is always giving us back our own, so that we can understand his plays more and ourselves better. The reward of the study of literature is that we are constantly deepening our own experience and understanding, and of all English literature the study of Shakespeare is the most valuable. It gives us the power of separating ourselves from ourselves and seeing our own lives as part of universal life, as players playing out our own seven acts on the universal stage, and at the same time enjoying the experience of the play as players on the stage and as critics（批评家） in the audience.

Computers are very important to modern life. Many people think that in the future computers will be used in lots of everyday life. It is thought that we won’t have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers. The Internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food. Most telephone calls will be made by computers, too.
Some people are glad about those new ways of shopping and communicating. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers, which will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized books will be used more and more.
While many people say it is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers won’t change these two habits.

三、阅读理解
Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16,1775,and died on July 18,1817.She began writing early in life, although the prejudices（偏见） of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously（匿名）.
But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath’s many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806,Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen’s Bath can be enhanced（增强） by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen’s time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.
The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.
You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen’s Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.
1．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Austen once lived in Bath during the last five years of the eighteenth century.
B．Austen knew very well about Bath.
C．The shop there offers books signed by Austen.
D．The city was built according to what was described in Austen’s novels.
2．What can we learn about Bath from the passage?
A．Bath has greatly changed since Jane Austen’s death. B．The city has changed as much as Jane Austen knew it. C．Bath remains almost the same as in Jane Austen’s time. D．No changes have taken place in Bath since Jane Austen’s time.

三、阅读理解
Sailors used to speak of a “jack” when they meant a flag which was set near the bow of a sailing ship. The flag showed the country to which the ship belonged. The Union Jack became the flag of Great Britain. Australia’s flag has the Union Jack in the top left -hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross. They have kept this small part of Britain on their flag because their country was first settled by people from Britain. Australia’s flag is the same color as the Union Jack — red, white and blue. The act of joining together is called a “union”. The Union Jack was the name of the flag made when England, Scotland and Ireland joined together to make one country.
It all began in 1707, when England and Scotland joined together to become one nation. A flag was made using two crosses — one for the patron saint of each country, which means protector. Many centuries before, the English had taken St. George as their patron saint. His emblem was a red cross on a white background. The Scottish patron saint was St Andrew. In memory of him, they used a white cross on a blue background. This cross was shaped like the letter “X”. The new flag was a mixture of both flags with two sets of crosses.
When Ireland joined England and Scotland in 1800, another cross was added. St Parick’s cross of Ireland was red and also shaped like an “X”. All three flags now made up the Union Jack.
1．The Union Jack is the flag of __________.
A．the United Nations B．Ireland C．England and Scotland D．Great Britain

三、阅读理解
The other day in school, we were discussing jobs. Our teacher, Mrs. Bolt said that career was very important and that it was never too early to think about your life’s work. Most of the young boys really were not too sure about what they wanted to be. But I knew exactly what I wanted to be, and when Mrs. Bolt asked me, I replied “A truck driver.”
“A truck driver?” repeated Mrs. Bolt. “Why do you want to be one, Tom?”
“Because truck drivers are always on the move. They do not have to sit at desks all day. They are out on the road and they see a lot of the countries. The pay is good, too. And they never have any homework.”
The class laughed.
“Well, Tom,” answered Mrs. Bolt. “You certainly sound quite enthusiastic（热情的）. I guess that you don’t like sitting at a desk or doing homework. Is that correct, Tom?”
“Yes, I guess so,” I said.
“Well, since you are so interested in becoming a truck driver, I think you should look into the field a little further. I want you to go to the library and take out a book on truck driving. And I want you to write a paper on it and hand it in at the end of the month.”
That’s the last time. I’ll never tell anybody my secret ambition（雄心）.
1. Mrs. Bolt suggested Tom write a book report because________. A. she was angry with him
B. she wanted him to learn about the other side of truck driving C. she was making fun of him
D. she wanted the whole class to follow him
2. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The writer thinks that truck drivers are well paid.
B. What Tom said made his classmates laugh.
C. It seemed as if Tom did not enjoy doing his homework.
D. Mrs. Bolt didn’t want Tom to become a truck driver.

A. he didn’t think his ambition could come true
B. he just got more homework to do
C. he was laughed at by the whole class
D. he would not be able to become a truck driver

D. She always did something strange.
四、阅读表达
Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches (路沟) along the highway I travel daily to work.
There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours, the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.
This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers.
Everyday I drove past the flowers thinking, “I’ll stop on my way home and dig them.” “Gee, I don’t want to get my good clothes dirty...” Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding shovel(钎) one year to be used for that expressed purpose.
One day on my way home from work, I was saddened to see that the highway department had mowed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, “Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.”
A week ago we that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor(脑瘤晚期). She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven’t been as close as we all would have liked.
I couldn’t help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I’ll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

三、阅读理解
In 1901,H.G.Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers(探险者)landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,” they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don’t even use your inner space?”
H. G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “Chunnel”, a tunnel(隧道)connecting England and France, is now completed.
But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities”. The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar
dome(太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth’s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G. Wells’ “moon people” would agree. Would you?
1. The explorers in H. G. Wells’ story were surprised to find that the “moon people”______.
A. knew so much about the earth
B. understood their language
C. lived in so many underground cities
D. were ahead of them in space technology
2. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Discovering the moon’s inner space.
B. Using the earth’s inner space.
C. Meeting the “moon people” again.
D. Traveling to outer space.
3. What sort of underground systems are already here with us?
A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations.
B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.
C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.
D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.
4. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Alice Cities—cities of the future
B. Space travel with H. G. Wells
C. Enjoy living underground
D. Building down, not up
四、阅读表达
The earliest observance of thanksgiving on this continent was with special services in Virginia as early as 1607. The first Thanksgiving Festival began on December 13th in 1621 at Plymouth, Massachusetts. It started as a harvest festival with the people thanking God for giving them sufficient crops. That first Thanksgiving celebration lasted three days with the people enthusiastically participating.
On June 20, 1676 the town of Charlestown, Massachusetts issued the First Thanksgiving Proclamation. By unanimous vote the governing council instructed the clerk, Edward Rawson, to proclaim June 29th as a day of thanksgiving.
George Washington issued the first national Thanksgiving proclamation in 1789, the year of his inauguration as President of the United States of America. He called for another thanksgiving Day in 1795. With other presidents and state governors proclaiming days of thanksgiving at various times there was no effort to organize a yearly Thanksgiving Day until Mrs. Sarah Joseph Hale struggled in 1827. It took thirty-six years to achieve victory when, in 1863, President Abraham Lincoln made his Thanksgiving Day Proclamation. __________.
Today Thanksgiving Day is a legal holiday with most government and private employees being given the day off. Some companies and most schools also shut down the following Friday. Yes, the United Sates of America, for most purposes, observes Thanksgiving Day.
But, it appears that Thanksgiving Day, like most other national and religious holidays, has been highly commercialized, to the point that many people forget what we are supposed to be celebrating. If we were to survey people on the street and ask, “What stands out in your mind when you think of Thanksgiving Day?” We would probably get answers like: turkey, dinner, pilgrims, fall, pumpkins, corn stalks. etc.
But, how many people on Thanksgiving Day actually pause and do what the name of the event suggests? What portion of the celebrators do stop to thank God for our nation and for all we have?
A psalm commands us, “ Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done.”
As we approach Thanksgiving Day, let’s not focus on the food, which are gifts. Let’s focus on the giver. Let’s thank God for all he has provided. Let’s call on his name and invite him to be present at our table. Let’s celebrate Thanksgiving Day with grateful hearts.
1．What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)

2．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
Many persons have ignored the original meaning of the Thanksgiving Day because it is often celebrated commercially.

A
During the American War of Independence, women played an active part in fighting in three ways. Firstly, some women worked as nurses in the field hospitals, taking care of wounded soldiers; some worked as cooks in the army; many women acted as water carriers. When necessary, all these women, who had many chances to see how the men fired guns, could take the place of the wounded men. The second way that women served in the Army was to fight side by side with their men comrades. Although women were not supposed to fight as soldiers in battles, when the Army was badly short of soldiers and when women were really good soldiers, who would be against women fighting in battles? Thirdly, from city streets to country villages, many able women were in charge of the work to supply food, clothing and medicine for the Army, and when the situation was dangerous, they called on all the women to take up arms to defend their own homes.
1. What is probably the main reason that women were permitted to fight in the war?
A. Women were braver than men in battles.
B. They were badly needed to act as cooks.
C. Women of that time were particularly healthy and strong.
D. Soldiers were badly needed to fight in battles.
2. A field hospital is a hospital _________.
A. that is built in an open field
B. that is on or near the front of battle and gives the wounded soldiers quick treatment
C. where wounded soldiers are operated on
D. where soldiers can be taken good care of
3. What is the main idea in this passage?
A. Women played an important part in the field hospitals during the War of Independence.
B. The Army was successful in teaching women to fight as soldiers.
C. Victory lay in the services of women.
D. Women were active in the struggle against Britain during the War of Independence. 作者: admin 时间: 2013-1-25 08:23

Hotlines have become common in China. Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows.
That’s a good idea. Yet, the fact is some people do nothing but break the whole programme.
Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host(主持人) is talking about. So the host has to tell the caller what the show is about. Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express his hope and show his ignorance(无知).Then the host has to answer and explain－how silly this is! It wastes a lot of time.
It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don’t care what the topic is, whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be.
I’m totally bored(厌烦) by those people. It’s necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if the caller doesn’t know what is going on, the operator should not let the caller take part in it.

A large daily dose of vitamin D can cut the risk of developing some common cancers by as much as 50 percent.
The study reviewed 63 studies published worldwide between 1966 and 2004 that linked vitamin D levels to cancer risk. Scientists said analysis showed that the “natural” from of the vitamin, known as D3, could obviously reduce one’s chances of developing common cancers, for example, by 50 percent in colon cancer and by 30 percent in breast and ovarian cancer.
Paula Bokser considers the so-called “sunshine vitamin” a key weapon that helped her fight breast cancer. She grappled with the illness twice in six years and during her treatment her doctor recommended vitamin D.作者: admin 时间: 2013-1-25 08:24
“There are so many things when you are dealing with cancer that you feel powerless,” Bokser said. “Maybe taking the vitamins gives me a bit more power… you know it’s another fighting agent.”
The study concluded that taking 1,000 international units（IU）of the vitamin daily could cut an individual’s cancer risk by as much as 50 percent. The study found that survival rates for darker-skinned people with breast, colon, prostate and ovarian cancers are worse than that for white people because the high melatonin content in darker skin reduces its ability to produce vitamin D. In the absence of sunshine, a beneficial level of vitamin D can be obtained from food and daily supplements.
While D3 is normally produced in the skin after exposure to sunlight, it can also be obtained from dietary sources, such as oily fish, eggs and meat.
“There is evidence to suggest that the vitamin plays a role in keeping cells healthy. But further research is needed to understand what role vitamin D may play in preventing cancer in humans.” said Sara Hiom, head of health information at Cancer Research UK.
1. The purpose of writing the passage is to tell us .
A. vitamin D can reduce cancer risk
B. to be careful when taking vitamin D
C. cancer can be cured by eating vitamin D
D. scientists have been concerning the function of vitamin
2. By mentioning Bokser, the author wants to show .
A. she was unlucky
B. she has great courage to fight with illness
C. she benefited by taking vitamin D
D. vitamin D is better than other treatments
3. The fifth paragraph mainly shows .
A. how vitamin D works
B. the effect of vitamin D
C. why people love vitamin D
D. white people can live longer

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
Working after school has become part of most teenagers’ daily life in western countries. In the US, more than 80 percent of American teenagers work after school during their high school years. Many students in Australia and Europe also work part-time. But generally speaking, teenagers in East Asia have not followed this trend. Parents in these cultures encourage their children to spend their most time working. But is working really a waste of time for teens? The answer is unclear. Experts say there are both advantages and disadvantages of teenager employment. One study shows that teenagers who work more than 15 hours a week have lower grades in their exams. They are also less likely to go to college. Teenager depression, anxiety and tiredness have something to do with long work hours as well. But experts haven’t concluded that teenagers should stop working. They admit that holding a part-time job can teach teenagers about responsibility and teamwork. Teenagers also learn about managing their time and money. Employment does bring benefits. Teenagers should be careful, however, to limit their work hours and always put schoolwork first.

三、1．选B。从第二段第二句可知，奥斯汀在Bath居住的时间是1801~1806年，应排除A项；根据第二段第三句“Her deep knowledge of the city...”判断，奥斯汀对Bath非常了解；根据第三段可知，那里的商店可提供与奥斯汀有关的书籍，但不可能是她签名的，因为她于1817年去世了；第二段介绍Bath这座城市时，说到它与奥斯汀时代基本一样，但并不是说它是根据奥斯汀小说中所描述的那样去建的。
2．选C。根据第二段中间“The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels.”可知，这座城市和Jane Austen当时的情况依然很相像。
3．选A。文章第一段介绍了著名作家奥斯汀以引起读者的兴趣，从第二段开始文章介绍奥斯汀曾对Bath进行过两次长期造访，曾于1801~1806居住在Bath，现在的Bath和当时几乎一样，并建有奥斯汀中心，这些都是为了吸引人们到Bath来参观。

Dear Mr. Principal,
I am an exchange student from Jenks High School. And I have been here in Hongxing No. 7 High School for some time. I’d like to say something about the canteen service in our school.
In general, the service is satisfying because the hall is clean and tidy and the dishes look inviting and taste delicious as well. What’s more, the workers there treat us as their friends, which makes us feel very happy.
However, we feel the price of the meals is a little too high and we can only have a limited variety of dishes with little change every week. In addition, we often have to stand in line for quite a long time before we can get the meal and you could understand how precious time is to us students. Therefore, may I suggest something be done to solve the problems so that we can all enjoy our meals at school?
Sincerely yours,
Mike作者: admin 时间: 2013-1-25 08:24

三、Part-time jobs are popular among teenagers in western countries while parents in East Asia encourage children to focus on studies. Experts think teenager employment is a double-edged sword and suggests teenagers not ignore their study while doing part-time jobs.
Just as the experts say, part-time jobs have both advantages and disadvantages. By doing part-time jobs, we can learn about how society works and this will help us better understand the things happening around us. Meanwhile, we understand how hard it is to earn money so that we will be careful with our spending. However, long hours’ work may also have bad effects on our study.
As far as I can see, part-time jobs do more good than harm to teenagers. It is true that study is our main mask and it should always come first. But study is not everything. As teenagers, we should also build our character and learn more through practice. Of course, teenagers should try to manage the time properly and put study in the first place.
