This movie series focuses on a romance writer Joan and her adventures with a soldier of fortune named Jack. In Romancing the stone Joan goes to Colombia to save her sister who was kidnapped(绑架). In the sequel Joan goes to the fictional kingdom of Kadir set somewhere in the Middle East. Romancing the stone's scenes were shot mostly in Mexico. For Jewel of the Nile, the scenes were mostly shot in France and Morocco.

The Talented Mr Ripley

【题目】British Women Writers in different periods of time

The English Renaissance

The English Renaissance began in the later part of the fifteenth century and lasted until the 1660s. Among the most famous women writers of this period is Aphra Behn, who is seen as the first professional woman writer in English. She wrote a number of plays that dealt with topics such as racism and slavery. A good example is Oroonoko published in 1688. Aphra Behn's works include also the plays The Amourous Prince, The Town Fop, The Dutch Lover and her only tragedy, Abdelazer.

The neoclassical period

Among the well-known women in British literature during the neoclassical period, from 1660 to the end of the eighteenth century, is Anne Finch. She wrote poetry and tried to express all that she saw and experienced. Two other women are recognized for their contribution to neoclassical British literature: Mary Astell and Lady Mary Wortley Montagu. Mary Astell was a philosopher and a feminist writer. She is best known now for her theories on the education of women.

【题目】With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9:00 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pajama’s(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.

All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the “night owl” schedule of sleep.

This is opposed to the “early bird” schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as “night owls” and only 10 percent can be classified as “early birds” ------ the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls, this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.

【1】What does the author stress in Paragraph 1?

A. Many students are absent from class.

B. Students are very tired on Monday mornings.

C. Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well.

D. Students are not well prepared for class on Mondays.

【2】Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?

A. Most students prefer to get up late in the morning.

B. Students don’t sleep well because of alerting systems.

C. One’s body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently.

D. Adolescents’ delayed sleep/wake cycle isn’t the preferred pattern.

【3】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “classified”?

A. Criticized B. Grouped C. Organized D. Named

【4】What does the text mainly talk about?

A. Functions of the body clock.

B. The “night owl” phenomenon.

C. Human beings’ sleep behaviour.

D. The school schedule of “early birds”.

【题目】What is the hottest topic at your school recently? In Hangzhou Yongjin Middle School, it’s money.

The school held an activity called “making money” last weekend. About 200 Junior 1 and Junior 2 students were divided into 30 teams. 【1】

What did they choose to sell? Some sold newspapers; some chose bottled waste; some sold shopping bags and bamboo baskets...Hu Qing’s team decided to sell some useful books in front of the Children Activity Centre.【2】But unfortunately, they met urban management officers(城管). The officers asked them to leave. “We played hideandseek with them the whole morning,” said Hu. “Finally we had to give up.” Wang Bing and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn’t meet any officer. 【3】The team then put a board saying “For Country Kids”. It worked. More people came to their stall. A foreigner even gave them 100 yuan. “He didn’t want any change. 【4】”said Wang. “We are touched.” Later that day they gave 100 yuan and more to the Hope Project office.

Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours and made 40.5 yuan. “【5】” said Meng.“Some people just looked. Others just tasted but didn’t buy. Now I know how hard it is for our parents to make the money we need to lead happy lives.”

A. It was not easy to make the money.

B. But few people were interested in what they were selling.

C. It seemed that he was very rich.

D. They went out to make money by selling things.

E. He said he wanted to help the children.

F. They thought parents would like to buy the books for their children.

G. It was very fun to sell things in the streets.

【题目】Charles Babbage was born on 26 December 1791, probably in London, the son of a banker. By the time he went to Cambridge University in 1810 he was very interested in mathematics.

In 1812, Babbage and several other friends formed theAnalytical Society. As a student, he was also a member of other societies such asThe Ghost Club, concerned with finding out supernatural phenomena (超自然现象), and the Extractors Club, devoted to freeing its members from the madhouse(精神病院), should any be placed in one.

After graduation Babbage was hired by the Royal Institution to lecture on calculus(微积分). Within two years he had been elected a member of the Royal Society and, with his Cambridge friends, succeeded in setting up the Astronomical Society in 1820, the first to challenge the influence and power of the Royal Society. From 1828 to 1839, Babbage was Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge.

The 1820s saw Babbage work on his 'Difference Engine', a machine which could perform mathematical calculations. At the beginning a six-wheeled model was constructed. He then developed plans for a bigger, better, machine - Difference Engine 2. He also worked on another invention, the more complex Analytical Engine, on which his fame as a computer pioneer now largely rests. It was designed to be able to perform any arithmetical calculation using punched（打孔的） cards that would take the instructions, as well as a memory unit to store numbers and many other most important parts of today's computers. But neither the Analytical Engine nor Difference Engine 2 was finished in Babbage's lifetime.

Babbage also worked in the fields of philosophy and code-breaking. He died at his home in London on 18 October 1871.

【1】What did the Extractors Club aim to do?

A. Help treat its members with mental illness. B. Rescue its members trapped in the madhouse.

C. Set free the patients in the madhouse. D. Place the sick members in the madhouse.

【2】After he graduated from Cambridge, Charles Babbage _________.

A. was elected to the Royal Society B. became professor at Cambridge

C. founded the Astronomical Society D. taught in the Royal Institution

【3】What made Charles Babbage remembered as a computer pioneer?

A. Difference Engine. B. Difference Engine 2.

C. The Analytical Engine. D. A memory unit.

【4】Which of the following best describes Charles Babbage?

A. Active and versatile (多才多艺的). B. Humorous and devoted.

C. Stubborn and generous. D. Bright and selfless.

增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在此符号下面写出该加的词。

删除：把多余的词用斜线（\）划掉。

修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。

2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。

Yang Li, a five-year-old girl whom lives next door to me, is very clever. Because she is not old enough to go to the school, she often asks me teach her to read, write and draw. She studies hardly and soon she learns a lot. One evening last month I was doing my English homework when he came to my house. She asks me why I learned English. “You will find English a bridge to so many knowledge,” I said. She then wanted to learn English, either. She has learned a lot of English word so far and her parents are very grateful for me.
