A
One of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.
1. "What's the matter?" "I went to a party last night, so I…"
2. "I feel so tired these days."" I think you'd better…"
3."Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…"
You can see from the above three examples that the context(上下文) helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So "guessing" is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.
31. This passage tells us mainly about _________.
A. the importance of "guessing” in learning a foreign language
B. how to guess what one is going to talk about
C. some examples of right guessing
D. how important it is to guess all the time
32. From the context, we can see maybe the finished answer in Example 1 is ________.
A. "… so I didn't have a good time." B. "…so I went to bed very late."
C. "…. So I felt unhappy." D. "… so I got up very early."
33. Maybe the finished answer in Example 3 is ______.
A. "… she is one of the most famous film stars."
B. "…she is one of the most beautiful women."
C. "… she is one of the most famous speakers."
D. " ... she is one of the most talkative women."

I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady, and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance, by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.
34. The writer argued with his son because ______________.
A. he liked tortoises while his son liked hares
B. they disagreed about whether the tortoise was foolish
C. he tried to teach his son a moral lesson but the son had totally different opinion
D. he liked the story of the hare and the tortoise while his son didn’t.
35. Sonny believed that the tortoise ______________.
A. won the race by his own hard working
B. took a risk by agreeing to run a race
C. was not given a fair chance in the race
D. in fact did win the race luckily
36. Billy, Tony and Sandy must be_______________.
A. boys who were unknown to Sonny’s father

D. boys who Sonny did not expect to race with again

C. are more hopeful than Sonny’s generation
D. have different ideas about life from Sonny’s generation

When you enter a crowded room or go on a picnic or to a party, who is the most attractive and appealing person? It is the person who is cheerful, has a smiling face and behaves as if he or she is enjoying every moment of the event! Such people have an optimistic(樂(lè)觀的) opinion on life.They are the ones with a positive attitude.On the other hand, let’s see that fellow in the corner with a long face.He is most probably thinking about the time and money wasted in having fun.He is a pessimist, one with a negative attitude.
A person with a positive attitude gets on well with the job at hand.He doesn’t worry about what’s gone before or what might happen in the future.If there is a problem, he quickly thinks of ways to solve it.If the problem cannot be solved singly, he seeks help from someone else.He doesn’t feel that it’s beneath his dignity to seek assistance.
When Sonal lost her history notes days before an important examination, she sat down and cried.Then she pulled herself together, borrowed a friend’s notes, worked day and night and managed to copy down whatever she had lost.Sonal passed the exam with flying colors.
It’s just not possible, even for the greatest optimist, to smile all the time and feel good all day.Everyone has a period of blues now and then, when everything seems sad and without cheer.But once you develop a positive attitude, once you realize that life is a series of ups and downs, dark clouds and bright sunshine, in no time at all, you’ve bounced back, ready to welcome the world again with open arms and a huge smile! So from this moment on, keep your face to the sunshine and you’ll never see the shadows.
38.What might be the best title of the passage?
A.To live with an aim in life B.To be a pessimist or optimist
C.Life is full of ups and downs D.Develop the positive attitude
39.The case of Sonal suggested that _______.
A.a person can solve the problem once he thinks of a way
B.Sonal made up for what she had lost by working day and night
C.Sonal was a pessimist because he lost her history notes
D.the history notes that she lost was not important for her
40.The underlined phrase bounced back in the last paragraph means_______.
A.moved back and forth B.jumped up
C.returned to active state D.came back
41.According to the last paragraph, which of the following statement is TRUE?
A.If you always look at the shadows, you will be in high spirits.
B.It is impossible for a person to be in a good mood all the time.
C.A negative attitude will make you welcome life with a big smile.
D.When someone feels sad, he thinks the world comes to an end.

Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts. In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external (外部的) world and also to control devices.”
The researchers designed a special cap for the users. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(頭皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets (translate) the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify (find or discover) objects in its paths. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Professor Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.
42. BCI is a technology that can _____.
A. help to update computer systems
B. link the human brain with computer
C. help the disabled to recover
D. control a person’s thoughts
43. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
A. By controlling his muscles.
B. By talking to the machine.
C. By moving his hand.
D. By using his mind.
44. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 4?
A. scalp—computer—cap—wheelchair
B. computer—cap—scalp—wheelchair
C. scalp—cap—computer—wheelchair
D. cap—computer—scalp—wheelchair
45.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B. New Finding About How the Human Brain works
C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D. Robotic Vehicles could help to cure Brain Injuries
