Already, by paying close attention to and 29 the world and people around him, and without any school-type formal instruction, he has done a task far more difficult, complicated and 30 than anything he will be asked to do in school, or than any of his teachers has done for years. He has solved the 31 of language. He has discovered it– babies don’t even know that language exists– and he has found out how it works and learned to use it 32 . He has done it by exploring, by experimenting, by developing his own model of the grammar of language, by 33 and seeing whether it works, by gradually changing it and 34 it until it does work. And while he has been doing this, he has been learning other things as well, including many of the “ 35 ” that the schools think only they can teach him, and many that are more complicated than the ones they do try to teach him. Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Section A Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices.

Believe it or not, that’s the number of Americans who struggle with hunger. To make tomorrow a little better, Feeding America, the nation’s largest 36 hunger-relief organization, has chosen September as Hunger Action Month. As part of its 30 Ways in 30 Days program, it’s asking 37 across the country to help the more than 200 food banks and 61,000 agencies in its network provide low-income individuals and families with the fuel they need to 38 . It’s the kind of work that’s done every day at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in San Antonio. People who 39 at its front door on the first and third Thursdays of each month aren’t looking for God – they’re there for something to eat. St. Andrew’s runs a food pantry (食品室) that 40 the city and several of the 41 towns. Janet Drane is its manager. In the wake of the 42 , the number of families in need of food assistance began to grow. It is 43 that 49 million Americans are unsure of where they will find their next meal. What’s most surprising is that 36% of them live in 44 where at least one adult is working. “It used to be that one job was all you needed,” says St. Andrew’s Drane. “The people we see now have three or four part-time jobs and they’re still right on the edge 45 .” 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。 56.

D) How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming. Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. It’s an annual argument. Do we or do we not go on holiday? My partner says no because the boiler could go, or the roof fall off, and we have no savings to save us. I say you only live once and we work hard and what’s the point if you can’t go on holiday. The joy of a recession means no argument next year – we just won’t go. Since money is known to be one of the things most likely to bring a relationship to its knees, we should be grateful. For many families the recession means more than not booking a holiday. A YouGov poll of 2,000 people found 22% said they were arguing more with their partners because of concerns about money. What’s less clear is whether divorce and separation rates rise in a recession – financial pressures mean couples argue more but make splitting up less affordable. A recent research shows arguments about money were especially damaging to couples. Disputes were characterised by intense verbal (言语上的) aggression, tended to be repeated and not resolved, and made men, more than women, extremely angry. Kim Stephenson, an occupational psychologist, believes money is such a big deal because of what it symbolises, which may be different things to men and women. “People can say the same things about money but have different ideas of what it’s for,” he explains. “They’ll say it’s to save, to spend, for security, for freedom, to show someone you love them.” He says men are more likely to see money as a way of buying status and of showing their parents that they’ve achieved something. “The biggest problem is that couples assume each other knows what’s going on with their finances, but they don’t. There seems to be more of a taboo (禁忌) about talking about money than about death. But you both need to know what you’re doing, who’s paying what into the joint account and how much you keep separately. In a healthy relationship, you don’t have to agree about money, but you have to talk about it.” 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。 61. What does the author say about vacationing? A) People enjoy it all the more during a recession. B) Few people can afford it without working hard. C) It is the chief cause of family disputes. D) It makes all the hard work worthwhile. 62. What does the author mean by saying “money is known ... to bring a relationship to its knees” (Lines 1-2, Para. 2)? A) Money is considered to be the root of all evils. B) Disputes over money may ruin a relationship. C) Few people can resist the temptation of money. D) Some people sacrifice their dignity for money. 63. The YouGov poll of 2,000 people indicates that in a recession ________. A) couples show more concern for each other B) it is more expensive for couples to split up C) conflicts between couples tend to rise D) divorce and separation rates increase 64. What does Kim Stephenson believe? A) Men and women view money in different ways. B) Money is often a symbol of a person’s status. C) Men and women spend money on different things. D) Money means a great deal to both men and women. 65. The author suggests at the end of the passage that couples should ________. A) put their money together instead of keeping it separately B) discuss money matters to maintain a healthy relationship C) make efforts to reach agreement on their family budgets D) avoid arguing about money matters to remain romantic Part IV Translation (30 minutes) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage fro- 配套讲稿:
