(part of Yanglan’s speech in Beijing's bid for the 2008 Olympic Games)

  Mr.President, Ladies and Gentlemen, Good afternoon!

  Before I introduce our cultural programs, I want to tell you one thing first about 2008.You're going to have a great time in Beijing.

  Many people are fascinated by China’s Sport legends(传奇)in history.For example, back to Song Dynasty, which was the 11th century, people in our country started to play a game called Cuju, which is regarded as the origin of ancient football.The game was so popular that women were also participating.So now, you probably will understand why our women football team does so well today.

  With a concept inspired by the famed Silk Road, our Torch Relay will break new ground, traveling from Olympia through some of the oldest civilizations known to man-Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Byzantine, Mesopotamian, Persian, Arabian, Indian and Chinese.Carrying the message "Share the Peace, Share the Olympics," the eternal flame will reach new heights as it crosses the Himalayas over the world's highest summit-Mount Qomolangma, which is known to many of you as Mt.Everest.In China, the torch will pass through Tibet, cross the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, travel the Great Wall and visit Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and the 56 ethnic communities who make up our society.On its journey, the flame will be seen by and inspire more human beings than any previous relay.

  I am afraid I can not give the whole picture of our cultural programs within such a short period of time.Before I end, let me share with you one story.Seven hundred years ago, amazed by his incredible descriptions of a faraway land of great beauty, people asked Marco Polo whether his stories about China were true.And Marco answered:What I have told you was not even half of what I saw.Actually, what we have shown you here today is only a fraction of Beijing that awaits you.

  Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that Beijing will prove to be a land of wonders to all of you to athletes, spectators(观众)and the worldwide television audience alike.Come and join us.

  Thank you, Mr.President.Thank you all.

Your seat is moving higher, giving you a bird's eye view of Beijing when, all of a sudden, you are thrown 35 metres back down to earth. While the breathtak-ing journey only takes two or three seconds, you scream with excitement as the blood rushes to your head...

This thrilling (刺激的) experience comes much cheaper than a plane ticket to Disney World. The Mega Drop (超级跳楼机) ride is just one of attractions at the World Carnival (环球嘉年华), which will be in Beijing from June 22 to August 26.

A girl enjoys last year's World Carnival in Shanghai.

Covering 50,000 square metres, the world's largest mobile amusement park includes more than 150 entertainment programs.

The Dutch company World Carnival arrived in Shanghai last June, making as much as 100 million yuan from 1.3 million visitors. It is one of several companies looking to establish themselves in China and use the world's fastest growing market to challenge Disney.

But they need to move quickly.

Already well-known in China, Disney plans to open a theme park in Hong Kong in 2005 and another in Shanghai by 2010.

However, alongside Mega Drop, there is G-Force (地球引力), Wild Mouse (疯狂老鼠) and Top Buzz (极速大风车). With all these sharp turns and steep drops on offer, World Carnival thinks it can compete.

"I am very proud that I brought World Carnival to Beijing," said company president Hans Lodders. "I think it can serve as part of the 2008 Olympic celebrations."

While World Carnival says that "everyone from the ages of 6 to 90 can find his or her favorite games," you need to be careful.

71. The above text probably is about ________ .

A. G-Force and Wild Mouse B. Top Buzz at Disney World

C. World Carnival in Hong Kong D. The Mega Drop ride

72. The place where the activity will take place most probably is ________ .

A. in British B. in BeijingC. in Hong Kong D. in America

73. The purpose that many amusement companies will be set up in China is ________ according to the passage.

A. to challenge Disney B. to develop stock market

C. to attract more companies D. to open theme parks

74. How do you guess the writer feel according to the text?

A. Happy. B. Curious. C. Honest. D. Patient.

75. What advice does the writer give us according to the text?

A. We must be peaceful. B. We must be careful.

C. We must be creative. D. We must be imaginative.

She will not __35__ on the cover of Time magazine or __36__ millions of dollars in endorsements(捐款), but she can always say she won a race at the Olympics.

17【题文】You're busy filling out the application form for a position you really need. Let's assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isn't it appealing to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University? More and more people are turning to cheat like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university.

Registrars(登记员) at most well-known colleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week. Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out that an applicant is lying, most colleges are unwilling to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them "cheats"; another refers to them as "special cases". One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by "no such people". To avoid outright(彻底的) lies, some job-seekers claim that they "attending" means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that "being associated with" a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century—that's when they began keeping records, anyhow. If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a false diploma.

  One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from "Smoot State University". The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the "University of Purdue". As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.

41.The main idea of this passage is that ______.

A.employers are checking more closely on applicants now

B.lying about college degrees has become a widespread problem

C.college degrees can now be purchased easily

D.employers are no longer interested in college degrees

42.According to the passage, "special cases" refers to cases that ______.

A.students attend a school only part-time

B.students never attended a school they listed on their application

C.students purchase false degrees from commercial firms

D.students attended a famous school

43.We can infer from the passage that _______.

A.performance is a better judge of ability than a college degree

B.experience is the best teacher

C.past work histories influence personnel officers more than degrees do

D.a degree from a famous school enables an applicant to gain advantage over others in job competition

44.This passage implies that ______.

A.buying a false degree is not moral

B.personnel officers only consider applicants from famous schools

C.most people lie on applications because they were dismissed from school

D.society should be greatly responsible for lying on applications

18【题文】Doris Lessing was born in 1919 in Persia, moving as a child with her family to southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, where she stayed in school only to the age of 14.

A year after moving to London, she published her first novel in 1950. The Grass is Singing examines unbridgeable racial conflict in colonial Africa through the eyes of a white farmer's wife and her black servant.

Her literary breakthrough came in 1962 with publication of The Golden Notebook, seen by many, though not necessarily Lessing, as a pioneering work of modern feminism(女权运动). A disjointed study of the mind of the main character, Anna Wulf, the novel explores her thoughts about Africa, politics, relationships with men and sex, and Jungian analysis and dream interpretation.

Lessing's themes changed to psychology in her works from the 1960s, and by the 1970s she was interested in the Islamic mystic tradition of Sufism(苏菲教派). Her turn toward science fiction with the Canopus series in the early 1980s was not warmly received by traditional critics, but she has continued to be popular with new readers and numerous literary awards, including the David Cohen British Literary Prize and the Companion of Honour from the Royal Society of Literature, both in 2001.

Following the announcement, the Horace Engdahl told VOA why he was personally so pleased with Lessing's selection.

“She is one of the truly great writers -- of novels, short stories, fiction and non-fiction,” Engdahl said. “She is one of the few writers who have had the courage to uphold the principle of equality between the male and female experience, and she has given the impulse to numbers of other women writers. And she is really the mother of a school that is one of the most important in our contemporary literature.”

At 87, Doris Lessing is the oldest Nobel Literature winner since the first prizes were awarded in 1901.

49. What would be the best title of the passage?

A.Doris Lessing’s Great Writings.

B.Doris Lessing’s Concern about Africa.

C.A Great Writer of Novel and a Pioneer of Modern Feminism.

D.A Nobel Prize Winner for Literature.

50.It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

A.there are only two characters in The Grass is Singing

B.The Golden Notebook is regarded as Lessing’s masterpiece by herself

C.life in Africa in her early age lays solid foundation for her writing

D.Doris Lessing is strongly against traditional culture in Africa

51.According to the fourth paragraph, _______.

A.Lessing began to believe in Christ in the 1970s

B.Lessing’s science fiction won readers

C.Lessing had won two literary medals for her writings

D.Lessing changed her themes to meet the needs of traditional critics

52.The underlined word “impulse” in the 6th passage is closest in meaning to _______.

A.pressure

B.inspiration

C.energy

D.desire

Dear Jack,

I’m very glad to tell you something about the Beijing Olympic Games. The 2008 Summer Olympic Games lasted 17 days, which were held in Beijing on August 8th and dropped their curtain on Aug. 24. More than 10,000 athletes from over 200 countries and areas took part. The Games saw 43 new world records and 132 new Olympic records. The American athlete, Michael Phelps broke the record for most gold medals in one Olympics. China performed so wonderfully that it won a total of 100 medals, including 51 gold medals, leading the gold medal count for the first time in history.

Beijing’s successful hosting of the Games has earned global praise and the organizing work has been considered perfect. I hope the 2012 London Olympic Games will also be a perfect one.
