参考译文：
航空公司有责任帮你运输行李。如果你没有在到达的时候拿到行李，你必须立即通知航空公司。他们会做必要的寻找。如果重新找到了行李，他们会通知你的住处。如果你想要对行李进行保险，你需要自己付费。
有些航空公司规定行李的重量不能超过44磅（20公斤），其他航空公司对行李的重量没有限制，但是行李的件数不能超过两件。可以向你将要乘坐的航班询问行李是否被允许。
对与超过规定的行李要承担额外的费用，对此加拿大国际发展机构不会进行补偿。
每件行李，包或者箱子都必须清楚地标上你的姓名和目的地。如果你起飞时不知道到达的确切地点，可以标上由执行机构（旅游公司）代收的字样，就是旅行协议上出现的名字。
可用以下模式：
姓
国家名
执行机构（旅游公司）的地址
城市名，国家名，邮编
执行机构（旅游公司）的电话号码
如果你没有这些信息，请在行李上标上你在加拿大到过的机构的名字和地址。如果这些信息都没有，你可以用CIDA（加拿大国际发展机构）的地址。
As far back as 700 BC，man has talked about children being cared for by wolves. Romulus and Remns，founders of ancient Rome，were said to have been brought up by wolves．It is believed that when a she-wolf loses her litter，she tries to find a human baby to take its place．
This seemingly unreasonable idea did not become believable until the nineteenth century when a French doctor actually found a boy wandering in a forest．The boy had no clothes on and was judged to be ten years old by some experts．He did not walk straight up like a human being，but with both his hands and feet touching the ground .The boy could not speak but howled like a wolf．He did not eat any cooked food but raw meat such as hare，deer，or goat meat. He knew nothing about the relationships among human families．Finally the doctor won the boys trust，and the boy started to obey him. After many long years of devoted and patient instruction，the doctor managed to get the boy to dress himself in clothes and feed himself as a human being does．With great difficulty，the doctor was able to make the wolf-boy recognize and speak quite a few words.
21．According to the passage．it is believed that______B_______
A．wolf-children are a common occurrence existing in every country every century

参考译文：
公元前700年，人们就谈论狼养人的故事。古罗马的发现者Romulus 和Remns据说就是由狼带大的。人们相信当母狼失去了他的孩子，它就试着找一个婴儿来代替。
这个不可思议的说法直到19世纪才得到证实。那时一个法国医生真的发现一个小男孩在森林里游荡，那个男孩没有穿衣服。有些专家估计他大概十岁，他不是像人类那样直身行走，而是双手双脚触地走。那男孩不会说话，只会像狼一样地吼。他不吃煮过的食物，而是吃像野兔、鹿、羊这样的生肉。他不知道任何人类的家庭关系。结果那个医生取得了男孩的信任，男孩也开始听从医生。经过很多年的努力和耐心指导，医生成功的使得那个男孩可以像人类那样自己穿衣服，自己吃东西。又经过很大努力，医生教会了男孩认识并说一些字。Bicycle tour and race

After her husband had gone to work，Mrs Richards sent her children to school and went upstairs to her bedroom．She was too excited to do any housework that morning．
In the evening she would go to a fancy dress party with her husband．She wanted to dress up as a ghost and as she had made her costume the night before，she was impatient to try it on．Though the costume consisted only of a sheet，it was really splendid．After putting it on，she went downstairs to find out whether it would be comfortable to wear．
Just as Mrs Richards was entering the dining-room，there was a knock on the front door．She knew it must be the baker. She had told him to come straight in if ever she failed to open the door and to leave the bread on the table．Not wanting to frighten the poor man，she quickly hid in the small store-room under the stair．She heard the front door opened and heavy footsteps in the hall．Suddenly the door of the store-room was opened and in came a man．Mrs Richards realized it must be the man from the Electricity Board who had come to read the meter．She tried to explain the situation．saying“it's only me．”But it was too late，the man let out a cry and jumped back several paces．When Mrs Richards walked towards him，he fled，closing the door heavily behind him．

参考译文：
理查兹夫人等丈夫上班走后，把孩子送去上学，然后来到楼上自己的卧室。那天上午，她兴
奋得什么家务活都不想做，因为晚上她要同丈夫一起去参加一个化装舞会。她打算装扮成鬼的模样。头天晚上她已把化装服做好，这时她急于想试试。尽管化装服仅由一个被单制成，却十分逼真。理查兹夫人穿上化装服后下了楼，想看看穿起来是否舒服。
理查兹夫人刚刚走进餐厅，前门就传来敲门声。她知道来人一定是面包师。她曾告诉过面包师，如果她不去开门，他可直接进门，把面包放在厨房的桌上。理查兹夫人不想吓唬这个可怜的人，便赶紧躲到了楼梯下的小储藏室里。她昕见前门被打开，走廊里响起了重重的脚步声。突然贮藏室门开了，一个男人走了进来。理查兹夫人这才想到一定是供电局来人查电表了。她说了声“是我，别怕！”然后想进行一番解释，但已来不及了。那人大叫了一声，惊退了几步。理查兹夫人朝他走去，只见他“砰”的一声关上门逃走了。
“Are you the happiest man in the world?”When asked this question，most people would say no.They don't think they are the happiest of the people around them. They would point out that one of their neighbors is happier than any one of them．“Doctor Frank has a career himself．His wife is the most beautiful and well educated lady in the community．No，I don’t think I am happier than Doctor Frank. At least my career is not as successful as his."
Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is happier----a relative，a close friend or，often，someone we even hardly know．I once met a young man who struck me as particularly successful and happy. He spoke of his love for his beautiful wife and their daughters，and of his joy at being a Tv talk-show host.I remember thinking he was one of the lucky few for whom everything goes effortlessly right. Once we talked about the internet, he is grateful for its existence．He told me，because he could look up information on diabetes(糖尿病).The terrible disease that made his wife suffer and could possibly be passed down to his lovely children．When I heard this. I felt like a fool for taking it for granted that nothing Unhappy existed in his 1ife.
This made me think a lot and I soon drew one of the most significant conclusions about happiness：there is little relationship between the situations of people's lives and how happy they are．We all know people who are richer and have an easier life than others.Yet they are essentially unhappy．And we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy．Unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault. As a bald man told me，“Whenever I enter a room，all I see is hair"，
It is hard for us to give up the imagine of "being perfect”. As nothing is perfect.Anyone can be unhappy．It takes no courage or effort to be unhappy．True happiness lies in struggling to be happy．
11.According to the author，most people would________they are the happiest in the world．D
A.doubt whether C．think about whether
B.1ike to think that D．not think that
这是考核作者的观点。第一段开始作者即提出问题，并按一般人的情况，给出否定回答，据此可知答案为D。
12.The author thinks that people quite often compare themselves with ___________． C
A. a close friend C．anyone we think is happier

参考译文：
"你是世界上最幸福的人吗?" 当大多数人被问到此问题时,回答是否定的,他们并不认为自
己比身边的人更幸福.他们可能会说,他们的某一个邻居比其他人都幸福."FRANK 博士有他自己
辉煌的事业,他的妻子也是社区里最漂亮和最有学识的女人.不,我不认为我比他更幸福,至少我的
事业就没有他那么成功."
大多数人都会拿一些他们认为比自己幸福的人作比较—亲戚、好友，有时候甚至我们不知道自己在跟谁比。曾经，我遇到一个非常成功和幸福的男人，他在主持脱口秀时向他的妻子和女
儿表达爱意和愉快的样子，让我觉得他是少数的幸运儿，这一切对他们来说都看似毫不费力。
有一次跟他在网上聊天，他很感谢网络的存在。他可以查到到关于糖尿病的信息，他说他妻子
受到糖尿病痛苦折磨并可能遗传给他们可爱的女儿。我听到这个消息的时候，我像一个傻子一样，还理所当然地认为他生活中没有任何不高兴的事情存在。
这让我思考良久，旋即我在心中刻划出有关幸福的最有意义的影像：一个人幸福与否跟他的生活处境几乎没有关系。我们都知道，那些有钱人比我生活更容易，可是他们不一定比我们更
幸福，而也有很受过重大挫折的人能幸福的生活。不幸福就像是我们在寻找什么东西犯了最无
足轻重的错误，就如一个光头告诉我，“每当我进入一个房间，我看到的全是头发。”
让我们放弃“成就完美”的想像很难，然而金无足赤，任何都可能不幸福。没有不高兴的勇气和努力，真正的幸福存在于幸福的追求当中。

随着我们的手机变得越来越智能，越来越小巧和快捷，并且能让用户快速与互联网连接，一个显而易见的问题出现了：手机要成为下一代电脑吗？从某种意义上说，已经是这样了。今天最复杂的手机具有20世纪九十年代的个人计算机的处理功能，而耗电量只有其1%。今天的手机渐渐具备电脑属性，主人可以发送电子邮件，浏览网页，甚至照相；去年，带有数码相机的手机的出货量已经达到8400万部。我们提出这样的问题，手机是否已经使个人电脑相形见绌，甚至取代
了电脑，这问题突然变得棘手。个人电脑的支持者说手机太小，连网速度太慢不能有效执行现在带有大屏幕和键盘的电脑所做的工作。手机支持者回应：等着吧。未来技术将解决手机的局限性问题。“等到二三十亿人都有手机的时候，他们就不会再用电脑了，”一位智能手机的发明者，也是一家重要的智能手机公司的技术总监说。“手机将使他们的生活数字化。”
这个发明者的最新产品是一个闪闪发亮，超薄，口袋大小的手机，带有小键盘，内置数码相机和小的内存条插口。现在智能手机只占手机总销量的5%，但是它的市场份额每年增加一倍。在美国，商务人群买手机首选智能手机。“是什么让智能手机比电脑优越，是它能随身携带，随时可用，随时备用，”一位在80家会员联盟的法律公司工作的手机用户这样说，这家公司最近为每位律师配了智能手机，而不是电脑。
Bill Cooper is portfolio(证券投资)manager of the $13 billion Value Trust Funds．one of the best mutual funds of the last decade．He is the only fund manager to perform the best for nine years in a row.
Cooper's interests in stocks(证券)began at the age of nine，when he noticed his father reading something in the newspaper．It looked different from sports or TV programs．So Bill asked his father what it was．His father explained that he was reading the financial pages．His father pointed to a column with some company's logo in it．“If you owned a share of this company，”he told his young boy，“you'd have 25 cents more today than you had yesterday．”
Young Cooper asked,“You can make money without doing any work?”His father replied yes．So Bill responded，“Well，that's what I want to do．”
With this idea，he made his way out of his secondary school and into the university．He worked very hard at his studies of finance．When he got his first job in a bank，he found that a university degree is not a sign that one is a finished product，but an indication a person is prepared for life．He is now making big money，yet he knows clearly that is based on hard work．

A．for nine years in a line C．for nine years running

参考译文：
比尔·库珀是一家130亿美元价值信托基金的证券投资经理，这项基金是近十年来最好的共同基金之一。他是唯一一位连续九年表现最好的基金经理。
库珀从九岁开始对证券感兴趣，当时他注意到父亲阅读的报纸上的一项内容。这个内容看上去跟体育和电视节目不一样。所以Bill问他的父亲这是什么。他的父亲解释他正在读的金融类的几页报纸。他的父亲指着带有某个公司商标的栏目，告诉他年幼的儿子，“假如你拥有这个公司的一股股票，你今天的钱就比昨天多25分。”小库珀问，“这样，你就能不上班就可以赚钱吗？”他的父亲回答是的。于是Bill回答道，“哦，那正是我想要做的事情。”
带着这种想法，他从中学毕业进入大学。在他的金融研究领域他工作很努力。当他在一家银行得到第一份工作，他发现大学学位不仅是完成一项作品的标志，还象征了一个人正在为他的人生道路做准备。现在他正在挣大钱，然而他清楚地知道这都是勤劳所得。

The first factor is that people are drinking more wine than ever before．This demand for more wine has increased overall wine sales in America at the rate of 15 percent a year．
The second factor is that the supply of wine has stayed relatively the same．which means that the samenumber of bottles is produced each year Wine producers are trying to open up new land to grow more grapes(葡萄)．But in at least three wine producing areas of the world-France，Germany．and California-new vineyards(葡萄园)will not be available in the near future．Wines are produced in other countries，such as Italy．Spain and Australia．but none of these countries will be able to fill the demand for good wines．
The third factor is that costs of wine production are increasing．The men who make wine are asking for more money，and the machinery needed to press the grapes is becoming more expensive．
When the demand for something is greater than the supply，prices go up．When production costs，meaning the price of labor and machinery，rise，the producer adds this increase to the price of the wine. 6．From the first paragraph，we know that the speaker is___________________________.D A．asking about the price C．bargaining over the price
B．worrying about the price D．complaining about the price
这是考核推理能力。“How come the Drice is now $2．257”(怎么现在就变成了$2．257)可见，说话者是在埋怨价格涨得太快，故答案为D。
7．The three factors mentioned in the passage cause___________________________.B
A．the sales of wine to increase C．the production of wine to decrease
B．the price of wine to go up D．more and more people to drink wine
这是考核细节。答案在文章第二段第一句，可知答案为B。
8．The supply of wine has remained the same partly because___________________________.D A．wine producing countries are unwilling to increase their production
B．new vineyards will not be opened up in such countries as Australia
C．countries like Italy and Spain can't supply enough good wines
D．the production of wine has ceased to increase
这是考核细节。答案在文章第四段第一句。“…the same number of bottles is produced”提示答案为D。
9．What does“production costs”refer to in the last paragraph?___________________________.D A．The price of grapes and machines C．The price of wine and wine bottles．
B．The cost of land and transportation．D．The cost of manpower and equipment．
这是考核细节。答案在文章最后一段第二句。从“…when production costs．meaning the price of labor and machinery，rise．”可以看出．Production costs是指the costs of labor(相当于manpower) 和machinery(相当于equipment)，故答案为D。
10.The author's purpose of writing this passage is to___________________________.C A．persuade people to drink less wine
B tell people where to get the best wine
C．explain why the price of wine is rising
D．show that wine is popular with Americans
这是考核主旨。文章通篇都在解释红酒价格上涨的因素，故答案为c。
参考译文：
“上星期这瓶酒只要花1.69美元，现在怎么要2.25美元了呢？这是怎么回事？”
至少有三个原因导致了酒价的上涨。都与经济的供求有关。
第一个原因是人们比以往任何时候喝的酒都多。这种对酒的大量需求使美国的酒的总体销售每年以15%的速度上涨。
第二个原因是，酒的供应相对稳定，也就是说，每年生产的酒的数量是一样的。酒的生产商正在想办法开辟新的土地来种更多的葡萄。但是至少在法国，德国和加里佛尼亚这三个葡萄酒生产基地，新的葡萄园在最近是不可能形成的。其他国家也生产葡萄酒，如意大利，西班牙和澳大利亚，但是这些地方都不能满足对优质葡萄酒的需求。
第三个原因是生产葡萄酒的成本在增加。生产葡萄酒的工人要求加薪，用来压榨葡萄的机器越来越贵。
当某件东西供不应求了，价格就会上涨。当产品的成本，比如劳动力和机器的价格上涨，生产商就会把增加的价格加到酒的价格上去。
Blocks of“high—rise”flats have been built in large numbers in London and in many other big cities．Just after the Second World War these big，twenty-to—thirty storey buildings，hundreds of feet in height，were thought to be the ideal solution to the housing problem .For on the one hand，there was severe housing shortage，but on the other hand，there was lack of space to build houses in urban areas．Blocks of“high—rise”flats seemed，at first，to be able to solve the problem，since they can offer space for more families to live in on less land．The beautiful，modem apartments in the high rises were much sought after by people who lived downtown．Hundreds of the vast blocks had been built before anyone began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not．Are they suitable places for people，children especially，to live in? A wellknown British architect，who personally designed many of these buildings，now believes that the high—rises may well make those people who have been housed in them suffer a great deal．Evidence has been collected by social workers，which suggests that people do suffer．They complain about severe loneliness and deep depression living within these great towers．People also talk about lack of communication with others，no easy access to a playground for children，no chances for adults to get familiarized with each other．Many people say that they have lived next door to each other for years in the same building，but they never know who their neighbors are．Some experts say that a large number of people living in the high-rises suffer from mental disorder and have even developed criminal tendencies．As a result of these new discoveries，plans for new high-rise blocks are being reconsidered. We are now building up many high-rises in big cities such as
Beijing，Shanghai and Guangzhou．Perhaps we should also reconsider the idea too．
11.There was a big housing problem after the Second World War__________.C
A in London B．in the rural areas C．in many big cities D．in many countries
这是考核理解和判断。文章一开始就提到为解决房荒，二战后在伦敦及其他大城市建造了许
多高层住宅，因此答案为C。
12．Blocks of“high-rise”flats were thought to be the ideal solution to the housing problem, because_______________.D
A．there was severe house shortage in big cities
B. there was less and less land to build houses in big cities
C．they were modem and beautiful and much sought after by city people
D．they were built on less land and were able to house a lot more people
这是考核判断能力。建造高层住宅最主要的原因只有一个，即答案为D。
13.The sentence“Hundreds of the vast blocks had been built before anyone began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not．”means___________．A
A. it was not until hundreds of the vast blocks had been built，people began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not
B. hundreds of the vast blocks had not been built until people began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not
C．people began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not before hundreds of the vast blocks had been built
D．before hundreds of the vast blocks had been built，some people began to doubt about whether they were good solutions or not
这是考核查对“…(主句)+before…(从句)”这一特殊句型的理解。句中由before引导的从句
常常含有否定含义，所以答案为A。
14．The author takes a well-known British architect as an example to show us that_____________.B
A. he is very proud of his designing of many of the high-rises
B.even a well-known designer of the high-rises believes they are no good for people
C．even a well-known designer of the high-rises suffers personally
D．high-rises are well-designed modem buildings which meet people's needs
这是考核对下半段内容的理解。下半段主要从讨论高层住宅的负面影响人手，质疑其是否是
解决房荒的理想方法，作者举例是为了说明这一点，所以答案为B。
15.What is the greatest danger for people living in a high-rise according to some experts?
_______________________________.C
A. Lack of communication with others．
B．No easy access to a playground for children．
C．Developing criminal tendencies.
D．Not knowing the neighbors．
这是考核细节和判断。文中最后谈到几条住高层住宅的负面影响，但最危险的自然应属犯罪
倾向，所以答案为C。
参考译文：
伦敦和其他许多大城市已经建起了大量的高层住宅。二战后，这些巨大的高达二十到三十层，
几百米高的高层住宅成为房荒问题的理想解决办法。一方面，房子严重短缺，但是另一方面，市
区建筑用地短缺。起初，高层住宅似乎能解决这个问题，因为这些高层住宅能以较少的用地提供
更多的家庭居住。城里人竞相购买这些高层住宅里漂亮、现代化的公寓。在没有任何人怀疑这是
否是最好的解决办法之前上百幢大型的高层住宅群已经拔地而起。这些住宅真的适合人们，尤其
是孩子居住吗？一位著名的英国建筑家，他本人就设计过很多这样的高层住宅，现在相信居住在
这些高层住宅的人深受其害。社会工作者收集的证据显示人们确实深受其害。他们抱怨住在这些
巨塔之中有强烈的孤独感和压抑感。人们还提及到与他人缺乏交流，孩子们没有地方玩耍，成人
之间没有机会相互熟悉。很多人都说他们在同一幢楼里住了好几年都不认识门挨门的邻居。一些
专家说很多高层住宅的居民患有心理失常并且有犯罪倾向。由于这些新发现，人们开始重新思考
高层住宅的问题，现在在北京、上海和广州这样的大城市高层住宅正在拔地而起。或许我们也应该反思这个想法了。

Do you want to voice your complaint about the oil price，concerns about noise pollution or suggestions on traffic jams?

油价上涨令人抱怨，噪声污染令人担忧，交通拥挤令人思考，对这些，你想发表看法吗？轻轻点击鼠标就可以填写所得税的表格，商业注册和投票选举，对此你想说点什么吗？
不久将来，这些事情将在北京、上海和广州这样的大城市变成现实，中国在未来也将开展一系列的信息技术项目。
这种能够提供大量政府信息、政策和服务的网站开始启动，这些大城市的居民和商业活动就可以很便捷的使用电子政务。政府官员声称，在不久将来，只需指尖轻轻一点，诸如商业注册、缴税和水电气缴费之类的事情就可以解决。
他们说，新网站提出了一个干净、透明和有效地政府管理的承诺，“明年一个含有上海所有政府机构的大型网站将开放，人们可以进入一个网址就可以办理公务，”上海人民政府信息办公室负责电子政务的高层官员透露。在最近的一次采访中，这位高层官员说城市管理会为这个项目提供专项资金。
上海在去年一月份启动在线政务，到现在为止一共有55个政府机构建立了自己的网站，为公众提供信息和服务。然而这些工作远远没有达到预期的效果。信息更新不够及时，服务范围有限。市民与机构不能互动。这个项目还有大量的工作要做。
“传统思想很难改变。大部分人还不能接受电子政务的概念，世界各国的政府正面临着这个挑战，” Todd Ramsey说，他是IBM（国际商务机器公司）负责全球电子政务产业的总经理。然而，电子政务是全球发展趋势的一部分。
在世界范围内，像美国、日本这样的发达国家已经印度尼西亚和新加坡这样的新兴市场都采用了电子政务项目区提高他们的工作效率。

We moved to here two days ago and we've been working non-stop ever since．This evening we decided to have a few hours rest,so I'm writing a few invitations to some friends．

我们两天前搬到这里来，一直不停地忙到现在。今晚我们决定休息几个小时，所以我就给一些朋友写邀请函。
现在新的高速公路开通了，你从贝德福德到弗林德斯只要两小时。可是路德派克很难找，这是一个新的居民区，很少有人知道在哪。当你到这个地区的时候打我电话，然后我告诉你具体方向。我们的电话是56889590。
尽管时间仓促我和芭芭拉希望你能够来赴宴。
最美好的祝愿。

Dear Uncle Ric,
We were very sorry to hear that you are in hospital again,but I feel sure you'll be out and about again soon.It doesn't sound very serious this time according to Auntie Ivy and in any case you have already recovered from the operation so quickly.
Malcolm has been working very hard all this year，because he is sitting some examinations this month and he is determined to study History at the University of Oxford Although the sun has been shining all day today,he has been sitting at home reading about the history of the French Revolution．Fortunately he loves books, especially history books．He spends all his time and money on books.

But he is very keen on games.He never stays indoors when the weather is reasonably fine,and today he has been playing tennis for hours with his friends．He is fond of football，but tennis is his favorite. He said that he wanted to become a professional player．His mother doesn’t really approve．

亲爱的瑞克叔叔，
我们很难过听到你再次住院的消息，但我确信你会很快外出走动。听艾薇阿姨说这一次不是很严重，无论如何你已经很快从手术中恢复过来。
马尔科姆这一年都很努力，因为他这个月要参加一些考试，他决定到剑桥大学学习历史。尽管今天一整天阳光灿烂，他一直坐在家里读法国革命史。很幸运，他喜欢书籍，尤其是历史书。他把时间和金钱都花在书籍上了。
詹姆斯跟他哥哥完全不一样。他可能太年轻不懂事。他厌倦学校和学习。但是他非常热衷于比赛。只要天气还好他就不会呆在家里，今天他和朋友打了好几个小时的网球。他喜欢足球，但是网球是他的最爱。他说他想成为专业球员。他的妈妈一点也不赞成。
罗宾问候你。我们期待你的回复，盼望不久后见到你。我通过电子邮件把这封信发给艾薇阿姨，她会把这封信和我们盼你早日康复的祝福带到医院给你。
无尽的爱

Dear editor，
Teachers in some secondary schools in Britain are worried that their job may become impossible shortly unless something can be done to restore discipline in the classrooms．In the problem schools，mostly in large cities,a small minority of teenage pupils disturb lesson to such an extent that the teacher can do longer teach their classes effectively．
Some people consider tbat the permissive nature of modem society is responsible for such kindofbehavior．Small children who are continuously encouraged to express themselves withOut reservation are naturalLy unwilling to accept school discipline when theygrowlder．Furthermore，modern teaching techniques，which apper to stress personal enjoyment at the expense of serious study work，might be teaching the child to put his own interests before his duties to the community in which he lives．
Perhaps the problem can be solved by improving facilities for the moral guidance of these difficult cbildren or by better cooperation between the schools and the parents--for the parents may be mainly reponsible for the bad behavior of their youngsters.Violence at home，violence and crime on Tv make some children turn violence themselves．
But some of the teachers believe that there ought to be a return to more“old fashioned”methods．At present,in some school teachers are even not allowed to punish a child who does something bad and wrong．Phy5ical punishment is not permitted now．People are too soft on children these days．It seems that che children can do whatever they like at school while the teachers can't do anything to punish them．I don't know why the schools authority abandoned some of the effective punishments that worked well. Things like that didn't happen when we were at school because the teachers kept those problem students under control by using a stick．

Text 1 如果你打算在2006年世界杯锦标赛上调查所有足球运动员的出生证明，那么你很有可能发现一个引人注目的巧合：优秀足球运动员更可能出生于每年的前几个月而不是后几个月。如果你接着调查世界杯和职业比赛的欧洲国家青年队的话，那么你会发现这一奇怪的现象甚至更明显。 什么可以解释这一奇怪的现象呢？下面是一些猜测：a）某种占星术征兆使人具备更高的足球技能；b）冬季出生的婴儿往往具有更高的供氧能力，这增加了踢足球的持久力；c）热爱足球的父母更可能在春季（每年足球狂热的鼎盛时期）怀孕；d）以上各项都不是。 58岁的安德斯?埃里克森是佛罗里达州立大学的一名心理学教授，他说，他坚信“以上各项都不是”这一猜测。在瑞典长大的埃里克森，一直研究核工程，直到他认识到，如果他转向心理学领域，他将会有更多机会从事自己的研究。他的首次试验是在大约30年以前进行的，与记忆相关：训练一个人先听一组任意挑选的数字，然后复述这些数字。“在经过大约20小时的训练之后，第一个试验对象（复述）的数字跨度从7个上升到20个，”埃里克森回忆说。“该试验对象不断进步，在接受大约200个小时的训练后，他复述的数字已经达到80多个。” 这一成功，连同后来证明的记忆本身不是遗传决定的研究，使得埃里克森得出结论，即记忆过程是一种认知练习，而不是一种本能练习。换句话说，无论两个人在记忆力能力上可能存在怎样的天生差异，这些差异都会被每个人如何恰当地“解读”所记的信息所掩盖。埃里克森确信，了解如何有目的地解读信息的最佳方法就是一个为人所知的有意练习过程。有意练习需要的不仅仅是简单地重复一个任务。相反，它包括确定明确的目标、获得即时的反馈以及技术与结果的浓缩。 因此，埃里克森和他的同事开始研究包括足球领域在内的广泛领域中专业执行者。他们收集了能够收集的所有资料，不只是表现方面的统计数据和传记详细资料，还包括他们自己对取得很高成就的人员进行的实验室实验结果。他们的研究得出了一个非常令人惊奇的结论——我们通常称为天分的特征被高估了。或者，换句话说，专业执行者――无论是在记忆还是手术方面，在芭蕾还是计算机编程领域――几乎总是培养的，而不是天生的。 21. 文中提到足球运动员中的出生现象是用来__________. A 强调职业训练的重要性 B 聚焦世界杯上的足球巨星 C 引出什么决定了杰出表现这个话题 D 解释为什么一些足球队比其他足球队表现好

Text1 Habits are a funny thing. We reach for them mindlessly, setting our brains on auto-pilot and relaxing into the unconscious comfort of familiar routine. “Not ch In but habit rules the unreflecting herd,” William Wordsworth said in the 19th century. the ever-changing 21st century, even the word “habit” carries a negative connotation. So it seems antithetical to talk about habits in the same context as creativity and innovation. 习惯是件有趣的事情。我们无意识间养成了一些习惯，我们的大脑是自动运 转的，轻松进入熟知套路所带来的不自觉舒适状态。“这并非选择，而是习惯控 制了那些没有思想的人”，这是威廉?华兹华斯（William Wordsworth）19世纪时 说的话。在现在这个日新月异的21世纪，甚至习惯这个词本身也带有负面涵义。 因此，在创造和革新的背景下来谈论习惯，似乎显得有点矛盾。 But brain researchers have discovered that when we consciously develop new habits, we create parallel synaptic paths, and even entirely new brain cells, that can jump our trains of thought onto new, innovative tracks. But don’t bother trying to kil off old habits; once those ruts of procedure are worn into the hippocampus, they there to stay. Instead, the new habits we deliberately ingrain into ourselves create parallel pathways that can bypass those old roads. 但大脑研究人员发现，当我们有意识地培养新的习惯的时候，我们创建了平 行路径，甚至是全新的脑细胞，可以让我们的思路跳转到新的创新轨道上来。但 是，不必费心试图摈弃各种旧习惯；一旦这些程序惯例融进大脑，它们就会留在 那里。相反，我们刻意培养的新习惯会创建平行路径能避开原来那些老路。 “The first thing needed for innovation is a fascination with wonder,” says D Markova, author of “The Open Mind” and an executive change consultant for Professional Thinking Partners. “But we are taught instead to ‘decide,’ just as decide is to kill off president calls himself ‘the Decider.’” She adds, however, that “to all possibilities but one.

Passage1 Reading leadership literature, you’d sometimes think that everyone has the potential to be an effective leader. 读领导文学，你有时会认为每个人都有可能成为一个有效的领导者。 I don’t believe that to be true. In fact, I see way fewer truly effective leaders than I see people stuck in positions of leadership who arc sadly incompetent and seriously misguided about their own abilities. 我不相信这是真的。事实上，我认为真正有效的领导者的方式比我看到的人都陷在领导的职位上，遗憾的是他们自己的能力不称职，严重误导了他们。 Part of the reason this happens is a lack of honest self-assessment by those who aspire to（追求）leadership in the first place. 对产生这种现象的原因一部分是由那些渴望缺乏诚实的自我评估（追求）放在首位的领导 We've all met the type of individual who simply must take charge. Whether it's a decision-making session, a basketball game, or a family outing, they can't help grabbing the lead dog position and clinging on to it for dear life. They believe they're natural born leaders. 我们都遇到了个人的类型，他们必须负责。无论是决策会议，篮球比赛，还是家庭外出，他们都不能不抓住领导的狗的地位，并紧紧抓住它，因为亲爱的生命。他们相信他们是天生的领袖。 Truth is, they're nothing of the sort. True leaders don't assume that it's their divine（神圣的）right to take charge every time two or more people get together. Quite the opposite. A great leader will assess each situation on its merits, and will only take charge when their position, the situation, and/or the needs of the moment demand it. 事实是，他们没有什么样的。真正的领导者不认为这是他们的神圣（神圣的）负责每次两个或两个以上的人在一起吧。恰恰相反。一个伟大的领导者会对每一个情况进行评估，并在他们的位置、情况和/或需要的情况下，只会负责。 Many business executives confuse leadership with action. They believe that constant motion somehow generates leadership as a byproduct. Faced with any situation that can’t be solved by the sheer force of activity, they generate a dust cloud of impatience.

英语阅读理解带翻译范文生命之坚持
最新英语阅读理解带翻译范文:生命之 坚持 Some people insist that only today and tomorrow matter. But how much poorer we would be if we really lived by that rule! So much of what we do today is frivolous and futile and soon forgotten. So much of what we hope to do tomorrow never happens. The past is the bank in which we store our most valuable possession: the memories that give meaning and depth to our lives. Those who truly treasure the past will not bemoan the passing of the good old days, because days enshrined in memory are never lost. Death itself is powerless to still a remembered voice or erase a remembered smile. And for one boy who is now a man, there is a pond which neither time nor tide can change, where he can still spend a quiet hour in the sun. 一些人坚持认为只有今日与明日最重要。可要按这条规则来生活的话，我们将会变得更加可怜。今天我们所做之事有多少是琐碎无功的，很快就被人遗忘.又有多少我们明天要为之事将会成为泡影。过去是一所银行。我们将最可贵的财富——记忆珍藏其中，这些记忆赋予我们生命的意义和厚度。真正珍惜过去之人不会为美好时光逝去而哀叹。那些珍藏于记忆的时光是永远不会消失的。死亡本身也无法止住记忆中的声音，或擦除记忆中的微笑。对于已经长大成人的小男孩来说，那儿将会有一个池塘。它不会因时间和潮汐而改变，可以让他大继续在阳光下享受静谧的时光。

C o m m e n c e m e n t o f t h e Commercial Operation of 600M W U n i t , "H i ro n o N o. 5Thermal Power Station of The Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc." Commercial operation of The Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc. Hirono No. 5 Thermal Power Station commenced in July 2004. This plant is a 600 MW coal-fired supercritical power plant. The main line-up of the plant, which features a steam turbine and a boiler, are supplied by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI). MHI set up this plant with a range of such key equipment along with ancillary facilities such as control systems, a flue gas treatment system, a wastewater treatment system, and stacks. This report gives a brief overview of the advanced technologies applied to the steam turbine and boiler of this plant supplied by MHI. 1. Introduction The Hirono No. 5 Thermal Power Station began com-mercial operation in July 2004. It is a 600 MW coal-fired,supercritical power plant that operates under the high-est global standards for steam conditions (24.5MPa x 600/600o C). The steam turbine has various advanced MHI tech-nologies, including the first 600 MW class two-casing turbine, high- and intermediate-pressure combined cas-ing developed by utilizing high temperature materials and cooling structures to cope with the ultra supercritical steam condition, 48 inch steel integral shroud blade (ISB), a new type of condenser, and a single shell deaerator cum storage tank. The boiler adopted in this plant has MHI's advanced technologies. They are reduced emission of NOx and unburned carbon with the A-PM burner and MRS pul-verizer. In addition, the vertical waterwall furnace that uses high temperature compatible materials and rifled tubes are adopted. Further, the plant is very much streamlined through the use of such simple systems and equipment as de-scribed below: (1) unification of air duct and flue gas duct into a single line through the adoption of a maximum capacity class fan, (2) unification of all feed water heaters into a single line, (3) unification of circulating water pumps into a single line, and (4) adoption of a plant starting system that does not rely on the boiler circulating pump. Since the plant is located in a narrow site adjacent to existing units operated using oil and gas, the overall arrangement of the plant has been improved by consult-ing with the Owner and is arranged in a more compact manner. Advanced MHI technologies have also been adopted in ancillary facilities. This includes the use of a dry se-lective catalytic NOx removal system, a high performance flue gas treatment system based on the harmonious de-sign of a double contact flow scrubber type flue gas desulfurization system with a low-low temperature dry electrostatic precipitator, an overall waste water treat-ment system, and self-supporting group stacks. In this way, MHI has drawn upon all of its competencies in es-tablishing this plant. 2. Steam turbine Figure 1Figure 1 shows an external view of the Hirono No. 5 steam turbine.
