Section A
Directions: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the
passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word,
fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other
blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.
(A)
Walking down a path, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the

path. I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path (25)______
wasn’t covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked!
Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unexpected. I was surprised as well
as unhurt though I (26)______(strike) four or five times. I backed up a foot
and my attacker stopped (27)______(attack) me. I found it amusing. And I was
laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!
Having stopped laughing, I stepped back (28)______(look) the

situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That’s when I
discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments (29)______(early). He
had a mate and she was dying.
Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if

to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his
concern for his mate, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He
did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, (30)______
______ I was careless enough to step on her. His courage in attacking something
thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate’s safety
seemed admirable. I couldn’t do anything other than (31)______(reward) him by
walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those
moments to be with her, undisturbed.
Since then, I’ve always tried to remember the courage of that

butterfly (32)______ I see huge barriers facing me.
(B)
You’ve probably seen athletes who take their own successes too
seriously. They celebrate a goal with a very long victory dance or continually
talk big about their abilities. This is the exact opposite of (33)______
sportsmanship is all about.
Everyone feels great when they win, but it can be just as hard
to be a good sport（有运动家品格的人）when you have won a game as when you
have lost one. Sportsmanship takes courage — when you work really hard at a
sport, it’s not easy (34)______(admit) you made a bad play or someone has more
skills than you. In competition — as in life — you may not always win but you
can learn (35)______ from losing, too.
It’s pretty tough to lose, so it is definitely annoying if

someone continues making fun of you or your team (36)______ the competition is
over. Sometimes it’s hard to swallow your pride and walk on. But there’s
always the next match.
When you do lose—and it will happen—lose with class（风度）.

(37)______(be) proud of how you performed, or at least realizing things you
need to improve for next time, is the key. When it comes to losing,
sportsmanship means congratulating the winners willingly. Also, it means
accepting the game result without complaint and without excuses, (38)______
______ you sometimes might doubt the referees（裁判员）made some questionable
calls.
When you win, the good way is to be a polite and generous

winner. Sportsmanship means admitting victories (39)______ putting your
opponents to shame and letting victories speak for themselves, that is, being
quietly proud of success. Despite the fact (40)______ you have a massive win,
sportsmanship means still finding ways to praise your opponents.
Section B
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each
word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
“In wilderness is the preservation of the world.” This is a
famous saying from a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalism.
The frequency with which it is borrowed ____ a heated debate on environmental
protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved.
As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a strong

appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they
speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The ____ to leave the
subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger exploitation brings
to such landscapes is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform____ that
humans need—the rainforests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities.
Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the

____ view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services, such
as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human
____, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more
people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better
lives, rather than merely struggle for ____. While the ways of using resources
have improved, there is still a growing need for raw materials, and some
wildernesses contain them in abundance. If they can be tapped without reducing
the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no
____ reason not to do so. Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic
worth valuing above all others.
I look forward to seeing these views taken further, and to

their being ____ by the other participants. One opinion is that both cases
need to take on the question of spiritual value a little more directly. And
there is a ____ question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without
harm.
This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of

feelings, but also the guidance of reason. What position wilderness should
enjoy in the preservation of the world obviously____ much more
serious thinking.
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or
phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that
best fits the context.
The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique

economic relationships. One of the least understood involves the ____ roles of
producer or “provider” and purchaser or “consumer” in the typical doctor-
patient relationship. In most sectors of the economy, it is the seller who
attempts to attract a(n) ____ buyer with various inducements (引诱) of price,
quality, and utility, and it is the buyer who makes the decision. Such
condition,____, is not common in most of the health-care industry.
In the health-care industry, the doctor-patient relationship is

the mirror image of the____ relationship between producer and consumer. Once
an individual has chosen to see a physician—and even then there may be no real
choice– it is the physician who usually makes all significant ____ decisions:
whether the patient should return “next Wednesday,” whether X-rays are needed,
whether drugs should be prescribed, etc. It is a rare and experienced patient
who will ____ such decisions made by experts or raise in advance questions
about price, especially when the disease is regarded as ____.
This is particularly ____ in relation to hospital care. The

physician must give evidence of the ____ for hospitalization, determine what
procedures will be performed, and announce when the patient may be allowed to
leave. The patient may be consulted about some of these decisions, but in the
main it is the doctor’s judgments that are ____. Little wonder then that in
the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real “consumer.” As a
consequence, the ____ represents the “power center” in hospital policy and
decision-making, not the administration.
Although usually there are in this situation four recognizable

participants — the physician, the hospital, the patient, and the payer
(generally an insurance carrier or government) — the physician makes the
____ for all of them. The hospital becomes an extension of the physician; the
payer generally ____ most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital;
and for the most part the patient plays a ____ role. We estimate that about
75-80 percent of health-care ____ are determined by physicians, not patients.
For this reason, economy directed at patients or the general are relatively
ineffective.

Section C
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete
the statements in the fewest possible words.
By almost any measure, there is a boom in Internet-based

instruction. In just a few years, 34 percent of American universities have
begun offering some form of distance learning (DL), and among the larger
schools, it’s close to 90 percent. If you doubt the popularity of the trend,
you probably haven’t heard of the University of Phoenix. It grants degrees
entirely on the basis of online instruction. It enrolls 90,000 students, a
statistic used to support its claim to be the largest private university in the
country.
While the kinds of instruction offered in these programs will

differ, DL usually indicates a course in which the instructors post syllabi (课
程大纲), reading assignment, and schedules on websites, and students send in
their assignments by e-mail. Generally speaking, face-to-face communication
with an instructor is minimized or eliminated altogether.
The attraction for students might at first seem obvious.

Primarily, there’s the convenience promised by courses on the Net: you can do
the work, as they say, in your pajamas. But figures indicate that the reduced
effort results in a reduced enthusiasm to the course. While dropout rate for
all freshmen at American universities is around 20 percent, the rate for online
students is 35 percent. Students themselves seem to understand the weaknesses
internal in the setup. In a survey conducted for Cornell, the DL division of
Cornell University, less than a third of the respondents expected the quality
of the online course to be as good as the classroom course.
Clearly, from the schools’ perspective, there’s a lot of

money to be saved. Although some of the more ambitious programs require new
investments in servers and networks to support collaborative software, most DL
courses can run on existing or minimally upgraded systems. The more students
who enroll in a course but don’t come to campus, the more school saves on
keeping the lights on in the classrooms, paying doorkeepers, and maintaining
parking lots. And, while there’s evidence that instructors must work harder to
run a DL course for a variety of reasons, they won’t be paid any more, and
might well be paid less.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO

MORE THAN 10 WORDS.)
78. The author mentioned the University of Phoenix to make us believe that
____
79. According to the second paragraph, if you apply for a DL course, you will
have little chance to
____
80. What are the two negative effects the convenience of DL brings about?

单选题（本大题共 12 小题，每小题____分，共____分。）
Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by

several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four
choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the
information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like
animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially
classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or
poisoning them.
Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to

control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the
countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women
riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter
shoots it.
People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they

wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes
of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most
hunters are wealthy.
It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in

fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed
to fox hunting, because they think it is cruel, has risen sharply. Nowadays it
is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of conflict between hunters
and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but
mostly saboteurs interfere (干涉) with the hunt by misleading riders and
disturbing the trail of the fox’s smell, which the dogs follow.
Noisy conflicts between hunters and saboteurs have become so

common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes
itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to
their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to
get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals
with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be
protected under the ban in Britain.
Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes ________.
A. for recreation
B. to limit the fox population
C. in the interests of the farmers
D. to show off their wealth
(A)
poisoning them.

shoots it.



What is special about fox hunting in Britain?
A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.
B. It is a costly event that rarely occurs.
C. The hunters have set rules to follow.
D. The hunters have to go through strict training.
(A)
poisoning them.

shoots it.


Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game ________.
A. by leaning upon violence
B. by taking legal action
C. by confusing the fox hunters
D. by demonstrating on the scene
(A)
poisoning them.

shoots it.



A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to ________.
A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxes
B. forbid hunting foxes with dogs
C. stop hunting wild animals in the countryside
D. prevent large-scale fox hunting
(B)
Electric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they
might even be dirtier than their gasoline-powered cousins.
People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions (零排

放的) vehicles,” but people in California seem to ____ where electricity comes
from. Power plants most all use fire to make it. Aside from the few folks who
have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from
generators (发电机). Generators are fueled by something — usually coal, oil,
but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms
and geothermal plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning
something.
In other words, those “zero-emissions” cars are likely coal-

burning cars. It’s just that the coal is burned somewhere else so it looks
clean. It is not. It’s as if the California Greens (加州绿党) are covering
their eyes — “____” Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a
vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas
(or another fuel) and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part
of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat — at the generator, through
the transmission lines, etc.
A gallon of gas may power your car 25 miles. But the

electricity you get from that gallon of gas won’t get you nearly as far — so
electric cars burn more fuel than gas-powered ones. If our electricity came
mostly from nukes, or geothermal, or hydro, or solar, or wind, then an electric
car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons,
we don’t use much of those energy sources.
In addition, electric cars’ batteries which are poisonous for

a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, when cars are
the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it’s a power
plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up
when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the
garbage is in one spot.
Which of the following words can replace “____” in paragraph 2?
A. Be familiar with.
B. Be curious about.
C. Show their interest in.
D. Fail to understand.
(B)

放的) vehicles,” but people in California seem to ____ where electricity
comes from. Power plants most all use fire to make it. Aside from the few folks
who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity
from generators (发电机). Generators are fueled by something — usually coal,
oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind
farms and geothermal plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by
burning something.



What can we learn about the California Green from the idea “____”?
A. They do not know those clean cars are likely coal-burning cars.
B. They do believe the coal is burned somewhere else so it looks clean.
C. They tend to hold that electricity is a nice part of energy.
D. They tend to maintain that gasoline is a good way to run a vehicle.
(B)

burning something.



According to the passage, compared with cars using gas, electric cars are more
_______.
A. environmentally-friendly
B. expensive
C. harmful
D. efficient
(B)

burning something.



We can get the conclusion from the passage that _______.
A. being green is good and should be encouraged in communication
B. electric cars are not clean in that we get electricity mainly by burning
something
C. zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment

D. electric cars are now the dominant vehicle compared with gasoline-powered
cousins
(C)
For the most part, it seems, workers in rich countries have

little to fear from globalization, and a lot to gain. But is the same thing
true for workers in poor countries? The answer is that they are even more
likely than their rich-country counterparts (地位相当的人) to benefit, because
they have less to lose and more to gain.
Traditional economics takes an optimistic line on integration

(整合) and the developing countries. Openness to foreign trade and investment
should encourage capital to flow to poor economies. In the developing world,
capital is scarce, so the returns on investment there should be higher than in
the industrialized countries, where the best opportunities to make money by
adding capital to labour have already been used up. If poor countries lower
their barriers to trade and investment, the theory goes, rich foreigners will
want to send over some of their capital.
If this inflow of resources arrives in the form of loans or

portfolio investment (组合投资), it will top up domestic savings and loosen the
financial restriction on additional investment by local companies. If it
arrives in the form of new foreign-controlled operations, FDI, so much the
better: this kind of capital brings technology and skills from abroad packaged
along with it, with less financial risk as well. In either case, the addition
to investment ought to push incomes up, partly by raising the demand for labour
and partly by making labour more productive.
This is why workers in FDI-receiving countries should be in an

even better position to profit from integration than workers in FDI-sending
countries. Also, with or without inflows of foreign capital, the same gains
from trade should apply in developing countries as in rich ones. This gains
from trade logic often arouses suspicion, because the benefits seem to come
from nowhere. Surely one side or the other must lose. Not so. The benefits that
a rich country gets through trade do not come at the expense of its poor
country trading partners, or vice versa. Recall that according to the theory,
trade is a positive sum game. In all these trades, both sides—exporters and
importers, borrowers and lenders, shareholders and workers can gain.
Why are workers in poor countries more likely to benefit from the process of
globalization?
A. They can get more chances to gain a good job.
B. They can get more financial aid.
C. They have nothing to lose.
D. They have less to lose and more to gain.

(C)

A. It will top up domestic savings.
B. It will loosen the financial restriction.
C. It will push people’s incomes up.
D. It will bring technology and skills from abroad.
(C)



What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Poor countries get the most profit during the process of trade.
B. Rich countries get profit from trade at poor countries’ expense.
C. Poor countries get more profit from trade than rich ones.
D. All aspects involved in the trade can get benefit.
(C)




Which can be the most appropriate title for this passage?
A. Benefited or Hurt
B. Who Benefits the Most
C. Helping the Poor
D. The Inflow of Resources
