As an American writer, Mark Twain, once said, “Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody (1) anything about it.” It is true that everybody talks about the weather. Many people begin their talks (2) saying: Isn’t it a nice (3) ?” “Do you think it will rain?” “I think it’s going to snow.” Many people think they can tell (4) the weather is going to be like. But they (5) ever agree with each other. One man may say, “Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It’s going to have fine weather tomorrow.” Another man (6) say, “Yes, it’s cloudy in the east. We are going to have fine weather tomorrow.” People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it’s going to rain and he won’t believe (7) else. When friends have a picnic, they are so (8) the weather is going to be fine very (9) that they sit eating their lunch while it is raining. Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says. But he doesn’t always tell us what we want, and sometimes he makes a mistake. Still, he is (10) most of the time. 1.A. do
B. did
C. does
正确答案:C
A survey has shown that people have stopped believing both the media and politicians. A similar survey carried out 5 years ago showed that 50% of people thought that what politicians said was usually not true, and that 35% of people thought that what they saw on the television or read in newspapers was not true. Now both those figures have increased sharply, to 80% of people not believing politicians and 70% not believing the television or newspapers. Experts think that these figures are not going to e down in the near future. Stories about politicians and journalists taking money from businessmen have caused the public to stop trusting them. Also politicians keep making promises that they do not keep. Mr Smith of York said, ‘When the politicians make new laws, they only help their friends, not people like me’. Mrs Marley of Leeds said, ‘The newspapers and television are not interested in what is true; they are only interested in money for advertising’. It has got worse recently as more people can get news from the Internet and learn if the journalists and politicians are telling the truth or not. What can our politicians and journalists do? The only answer is to be more honest.

An Extraordinary Change of Direction
正确答案:C
When I was a little girl, my brothers and I collected stamps for many years. My mother didn’t use to work during the week, but she worked in the post office near our house on Saturdays, and she used to bring home all the new stamps as soon as they were issued. On the day of the World Cup football final in London in 1966, we were very excited because England were playing West Germany in the final. When we were having lunch, my mother told us to go to the post office straightaway after the match if England won, but she didn’t tell us why. At 2 o’clock my mother went back to work as usual, while the rest of the family were watching the football on TV at home. Although she wasn’t watching the match, she was listening to it on the radio. England won 4:2 and so my brothers and I ran to the post office. As we burst in, my mother was standing behind the counter. She was waiting to sell us a very special limited edition with ENGLAND WINNERS on each stamp. We were over the moon. We still have it today,and perhaps it is worth a lot of money.

BEIJING — Olympic City 2008
A funny thing happened on the way to the munication revolution: we stopped talking to each other. I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his mobile phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and – poof! – I was cut off as if I had bee absent from the conversation. The park was filled with people talking on their cell phones. They were passing people without looking at them, saying hello, noticing their babies or stopping to pat their dogs. It seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferred to human contact. The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people feel absent. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver hushed the rest of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone. There we were, four friends driving down the highway, unable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make munication easier. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in munications technology is a setback (退步) to the closeness of human interaction. With e-mail and instant message over the Internet, we can now municate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine. As almost every contact between human beings gets automatic, the emotional distance index goes up. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-morning to the assistant when you can swipe you credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to the clerk who lives in the neighborhood when you can put your card into the ATM? More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talk. The technology devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier. I own a mobile phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail telephone, and an e-mail account. Giving them up isn’t a choice. They are great for what they are intended to do. It’s their unintended results that make me upset. What good is all this gee-whiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out “Gee whiz”?

正确答案:A
A study has shown that fitness is the key to long life, irrespective of body shape or even smoking habits. Researchers discovered that people who exercise live longer than those who do not, even if they are overweight and smoke. The study found that the least fit of the 6,000 middle-aged men in the study were five times more likely to die within six years of the start of the research than the fittest. This was true whether or not the men had heart problems, smoked or were overweight. Scientists concluded that it was better to be fat and active than skinny and sedentary. Dr Ken Cooper, a fitness expert, said, “You are better off smoking a packet of cigarettes a day and exercising regularly than being a non-smoker and sedentary.” Although he adds, ” But don’t misunderstand me. I am not endorsing smoking. I am trying to tell you how dangerous it is to be sedentary.” However, the study appears to fly in the face of research last year which concluded that more than 30,000 people die prematurely every year in Britain from illnesses caused by being overweight. The British Government is putting pressure on manufacturers to reduce high levels of sugar in food and to restrict the hard-sell of junk food to children in order to improve the nation’s health. But the new study suggests the Government should encourage more people to exercise.

Traffic in India means a mixture of all kinds of vehicles on the road. About 700,000 new cars (1) in India in the last twelve months, and about twice that many used cars have been traded.

People all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by man’s release of pletely new and often artificial (人造的) substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance (物质),such as oil from oil tankers into the sea. Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only panies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food es wrapped up three of four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which can’t be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metal and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste bine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess use and careless disposal (处理) of the products we use in our daily lives.
正确答案:A
Benjamin Disraeli, the famous nineteenth century prime minister, said, “London is not a city, – it is a nation.” Today this is an understatement; London, with its vast range of different ethnic groups, is a world. Certainly, London is the most culturally diverse city in the world. The city was founded by the Romans and since then new arrivals have constantly added to its character and prosperity. Within 10 years 40% of Londoners will be from ethnic minority groups, including the growing number of Londoners of mixed ethnic origin, but most of them will have been born in Britain. Children of Caribbean-Chinese marriages will go to school with children of Russian-Irish couples. None of them will be English but all of them will be Londoners.Most of Britain’s ethnic minority residents live in the capital, speaking over 300 languages. Nearly all of the African population and many of the Caribbean population of Britain live in London (83% and 58% respectively); 39% of the Chinese population of Britain and 36% of the Asian population of Britain live in London. The largest migrant munity is from the Irish Republic with 256,000 people, 3.8% of the total population of London.There are an estimated 330,000 refugees and asylum seekers living in London, with most recent arrivals ing from Eastern Europe, North Africa and Kurdistan. Young people, in particular, are skilled at dealing with a large number of different and hybrid cultures. They themselves often have several different ethnic identities since their parents and grandparents may e from several different backgrounds and their friends and partners do also. They are “skilled cross-cultural travellers” without leaving their home-town.

A 15-year-old boy, who was first found guilty of theft at the age of 12, was convicted of stealing 22 charity boxes yesterday from local shops. He was arrested while he was dressed as a woman and he was pretending to be a representative of the charity Help Aid. The boy had been arrested 80 times before and neighbours say that he had mitted over 1,000 offences. One local person said, “He’s always in court. We’ve had enough of him.” He had been sent to a young people’s prison on two occasions and had been convicted eight times – for burglary, assault, robbery and criminal damage. At the trial the jury heard evidence from the shop owners that one of them had finally called the police because of what he had said after his mobile phone rang. He had answered the call and had started swearing. “It was only at that point,” the shop owner said, “That I realised it was not the usual lady who collects the boxes.” After the verdict, his mother, who had given evidence in the case, said that she was unable to control her son. The judge told the court that the problems of the family could be due to the absence of a father.

In the UK, in business situations, when you meet someone for the first time you shake hands and say, “How do you do?”. This is not really a question, and the reply to it is another greeting such as “How do you do?” or “Hello” or “I’m very pleased to meet you” or, if you have met the person sometime before, “It’s good to see you again”. You don’t shake hands every time you meet someone, you just greet them. If you are invited to someone’s house for dinner, it is usual to take a present– some chocolates or flowers or, if you know them quite well, a bottle of wine. If you do not know the host well, don’t be the last person to leave. Telephone the next day to thank the host for the meal. English people don’t like to talk about personal things, and tend to avoid religion, politics and money. Good topics for small talk are the weather, holidays, weekend activities, gardens and architecture, especially houses and homes. When you go to a pub or bar, it’s usual to take turns to buy a drink for everyone in your group and pay for the drinks when you get them from the bar and before you drink them.

There have been changes in all sorts of different areas of British society. In recent years in the UK we have had a very large increase in the number of couples who get divorced. After 1969 and the Divorce Law Reform Act we had a very rapid increase in the number of divorces. The rate increased steadily and in recent years has increased much more rapidly. But there are also quite a lot of people who do actually get married. At present the marriage rate in the UK is about 70 per cent, which has gone down since the number of people who marry has gone down quite a lot in the last 20 years, but more significantly in the last 10 years. Quite high proportions of people now live together without marrying, and, for example, 40 per cent of children born in the UK are born to couples who aren’t married or are born to lone parents. There are quite a large number of lone parent families, 90 per cent of these are headed by a woman rather than a man. The average family size now in the UK is 1.8 children per couple, which means that there’s been quite a decline in the birth rate in the UK along with other European countries.

Although international travel is usually an exciting and pleasant experience, travellers should take steps to ensure that their health does not suffer either from their time in the air or from their time abroad. Before you go Check with your doctor or local travel clinic which injections are necessary for the areas you are travelling to. Allow sufficient time to have these injections before you leave because they may take time to bee effective. Be sure that the information on health is up-to-date. Check on the Internet if you are not sure. Don’t go to bed late the day before you fly. During the flight 1. Jet Lag Your body has a natural daily sleep pattern. It takes time to adjust to a new time zone. There are many different effects of jet lag: you may not be able to sleep, you may not want to eat or you may feel sick and tired. You may not be able to concentrate for some days after you arrive. There are several things you can do to lessen the effects of jet lag: - Do your best to relax during the flight; - Sleep as much as you can on the flight. Use a mild sleeping pill if necessary; - Drink as much water as you can; - Don’t drink alcohol and caffeine; - Take mild sleeping pills for the first few days in the new time zone if you need them. 2. Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) If you sit still for long periods of time, you will probably get swollen ankles and muscle cramps – these are painful but not dangerous. However, the much more serious DVT may also occur occasionally after long periods of inactivity — __________(1). This is not only true for air travel — it is the same for travellers by bus or train who spend many hours sitting in cramped conditions. To minimise the risk of DVT during the flight: - Stretch your legs and arms often while sitting in your seat; -_______________(2). Most importantly, if you have any worries about your health during the flight, call a flight attendant and tell them immediately how you feel. They will be able to help you.

The chances that you will be a victim of violent crime are low. But you can avoid risk in the following ways. AT HOME ? You should make sure your house or flat is secure. Always lock the door from the inside at night, but you must keep the key nearby, so that you can use it to get out quickly if there is a fire. ? You must never give keys to workmen as they can easily make copies. ? If you wake up and hear a burglar, stay quietly in bed. Pretend you are asleep. If you feel more confident, switch on the light and make a lot of noise; even if you are on your own you should call out loudly to an imaginary panion, so that the burglar thinks you are not alone and runs away. You should have a phone or a mobile in your bedroom to alert the police immediately. ? If you e home and think you see signs of a break-in, you shouldn’t go in, the burglar may be inside. You should go to a neighbour and call the police. ON THE STREET At night: ? Always walk facing the traffic, so that a car cannot pull up behind you. ? You mustn’t go through parks or woods. ? If you think someone is following you, cross the road one or two times. If he or she continues to follow you, go to a pub or other public place. ? Always carry your bag close to you, but carry your house keys in your pocket so that you can open the door quickly. If someone attacks you – remember your safety is more important than your property.

In the last 500 years, nothing about people – not their clothes, ideas, or languages – has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today. The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the“Potato Famine”of 2145-6, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the World’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s. According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a goatherd name Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.
