Soe years ago, Houston airport faced a troubling custoer-relations issue. Passengers were aking a huge nuber of 1 about the long waits at baggage clai (行李提取处). In response, the airport anagers 2 the nuber of baggage handlers. The plan worked: the average wait fell to eight inutes. But the coplaints 3 despite the apparent success.
4 , the anagers undertook a ore careful, on-site analysis. They found that it took passengers a inute to walk fro their 5 gates to baggage clai and seven ore inutes to get their bags. Roughly 88 percent of their tie, in other words, was spent standing around 6 waiting for their bags.
So the airport decided on a new approach: instead of reducing wait tie, it 7 the arrival gates farther away fro baggage clai area. Passengers now had to 8 six ties longer to get their bags. Coplaints dropped to near zero.
This story shows a general 9 : the experience of waiting is defined only partly by the actual length of the wait. Often the psychology of queuing is ore 10 than the length of the wait itself. Occupied tie (walking to baggage clai) feels 11 than unoccupied tie (standing at baggage clai). Research on 12 has shown that, on average, people overestiate how long they’ve waited in a line by about 36 percent.
This is also why one finds irrors next to lifts. The spread of high-rise buildings after World War II led to coplaints about lift 13 . The otive behind the irrors was 14 to the one used at the Houston airport: give people soething to 15 their tie, and the wait sees shorter.

II 阅读 (共两节,满分50分)
第一节 阅读理解 (共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The future of written English will owe ore to Hollywood fils than Dickens or Shakespeare, if the findings of a study into children’s writing are anything to go by. Researchers who looked at the entries to a national copetition found they were increasingly using Aerican words such as garbage, trash can, sidewalk, candy, sneakers, soda, and flashlight.
The stories, written by pupils aged 7 to 13, show how fairy cakes are referred to as cupcakes and a dinner jacket has becoe a tuxedo. “Sart” is now often used for “clever” and “cranky” for “irritable”.
Television also has a powerful influence on children’s work, with Lady Gaga and Argentinean footballer Lionel essi aong the faous naes fro TV cropping up repeatedly.
But pupils are let down by basic spelling, punctuation and graar, according to the study by Oxford University Press (OUP), which looked at the entries to BBC Radio Two’s “500 Words” copetition.
Children struggled to correctly spell siple words such as “does” and “clothes” and often failed to use the past tense correctly, frequently writing “rised” instead of “rose” or “thinked” instead of “thought”.
Researchers also found that punctuation was underused, especially sei-colons and speech arks. Soe did not know how to use capital letters. However, exclaation arks were overused. Researchers found 35,171 exaples in total, with soe young writers using five at a tie!
Popular US fiction such as the Twilight novels and fils is thought to be fueling the increasing use of Aerican vocabulary and spelling. eanwhile, fears that texting was corrupting children’s written work were unfounded, they said, with youngsters only using text language when they were referring to a text essage.
Saantha Arstrong fro OUP said: “Perhaps we are catching a glipse of the language of the future.” Chris Evans, whose radio show runs the copetition, said the results were “fascinating”, adding: “Who’d have thought that essi and Gaga would be soe of the ost used naes?”

26. According to the passage, which of the following is an exaple of British English?
A. sneakers B. fairy cakes C. tuxedo D. cranky
27. Which of the following was NOT frequently found in the pupils’ stories?
A. Text essage language.
B. A variety of Aericaniss.
C. Overuse of exclaation arks.

28. What can we infer fro the passage?
A. Lionel essi is now the ost faous footballer in Britain.
B. Aerican ovies and books are increasingly popular in Britain.
C. The national writing copetition is organised by Oxford University Press.
D. Written English is ore influenced by classical literature than popular US culture.
29. The underlined phrase “unfounded” in Paragraph 7 probably eans _________.
A. unbearable B. unnoticeable C. not found D. not based on facts
30. The passage is intended to _________.

Bissel is a sall village of the West Sahara. It lies next to a l.5-square-kiloeter oasis(绿洲), fro where three days and nights are generally required to go out of the desert. However, before Ken Levin discovered it in 1926, none of the Bissel villagers had ever walked out of the desert. Reportedly, they were not unwilling to leave this barren land. any had previously tried but failed, always soehow finding theselves back at the oasis after several days of trying to walk out.
When interviewed by Ken Levin, an expert at the British Royal College of Sciences, the villagers explained that no atter which direction they walked it always brought the back to the village.
Why couldn’t the Bissel villagers walk out of the desert? Levin was very puzzled. He had, by hiself, anaged to walk north fro the village and reach the nearest town in three and a half days. He decided to carry out an experient to solve the ystery. He and a Bissel villager called Argutel, would walk out of the desert together. They prepared enough water for a half-a-onth journey and two caels. But this tie Ken Levin didn't bring his copass. Levin would follow Argutel.
Ten days later, they had walked for about 500 iles but were still in the desert. On the 11th orning, an oasis cae into their vie They were back at Bissel. Levin now understood why the Bissel people couldn’t escape the desert. They had no knowledge of the North Star, which had for centuries provided sailors and other travelers with a point of direction. In the desert, if a person goes forward relying only on their senses, they will not be able to travel in a straight line. Rather they will travel in a very large circle and eventually track back to where they began. Levin explained to Argutel the function of the North Star and said, “As long as you rest in the daytie and walk towards the brightest star at night, you would be able to walk out of the desert.” Argutel did as he was told. Three days later, he cae to the edge of the desert.
Now in the West Sahara, Bissel has becoe a bright pearl, where tens of thousands of tourists coe every year. Argutel’s bronze statue stands in the center of the town. On its base are the words: __________________________________.

Years ago, I was watching a detective show on TV where the fingerprints of a criinal are required. The hero invites the bad guy to his hoe and offers hi a glass of water. The an takes the glass and drinks the water. After he leaves the hero draatically brings out a handkerchief and picks up the glass. His expressions show the satisfaction at a job well done. The bad guy will soon be arrested.
At that tie, I found it aazing ? how can prints on a glass identify people? y dad explained that if you were to press your thub on an inkpad and then on a sheet of white paper you will leave a sudge or print, which no one else in the world can ake. The sae would be true for each of your fingers. The Chinese were the first to use a fingerprint as a type of identification ? it was used as a signature on iportant docuents, although they had no way of independently atching it with the owner.
Each print is one-of-a-kind and no two people have the sae characteristic. Scientists and criinologists (those who study criinal characteristics) deterine the differences between fingerprints by a careful study of their curves and not by their general shape or pattern.
In 1892, an English scientist, Sir Francis Galton, published a book on using fingerprints to solve cries. At the sae tie in Argentina, a police researcher Juan Vucetich was also working towards a fingerprint classification syste. However, it was in 1896 that Sir Edward Henry, then serving as Inspector General of Police in India, developed the print classification syste that would eventually be used globally.
Sir Edward Henry and his assistant Khan Haque discovered that all fingerprints could be systeatically classified according to their general curve patterns. He divided the into three classes on the basis of their general pattern: loops (箕形纹), whorls (斗形纹), and arches (弓形纹). By counting the curve between any two points in the pattern, each of the ten fingers could be classified into a particular group. Taking the group together as a unit you have a coplete syste of classifying fingerprints.
In June 1897, the world’s first fingerprint bureau was set up in Calcutta and in 1901, Sir Edward Henry was appointed head of Scotland Yard in London, where he applied the syste. This syste, called the science of fingerprint identification, is still used by police departents all over the world today with few changes.

36. The purpose of the first paragraph is to show _________.
A. how a person’s fingerprints are taken
B. how satisfied the hero was with his work
C. how careful detectives should be when working
D. how fingerprints are coonly used to solve cries
37. Fingerprints were first used in China to _______.
A. sign docuents B. capture criinals
C. show respect D. prove identity
38. In which country was today’s fingerprint classification syste developed?

39. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The fingerprint classification syste has experienced great changes.
B. For ore than a century, fingerprints have been applied to crie solving.
C. Henry’s fingerprint classification syste was iediately accepted internationally.
D. By coparing the general shape of two fingerprints, one can easily tell their difference.
40. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Detectives and Criinals
B. Scientists and Criinologists
C. Fingerprints and Crie Solving
D. Researchers and Fingerprint Patterns

D
Organic food, once considered soething that only health fanatics desired, is now a regular feature at ost superarkets. And that has created a bit of a dilea. On the one hand, you have a conventionally grown apple. On the other, you have one that’s organic. Both apples are fir, shiny and red. Both provide vitains and fiber, and both are free of fat, sodiu and cholesterol.
Conventionally grown food generally costs less, but is organic food a better choice? The advantages claied for such foods over conventionally grown and sold food products are now being debated on a large scale. Supporters of organic foods ? a ter whose eaning varies greatly ? are frequently telling the world that such products are safer and ore nutritious than others.
The growing interest of consuers in the safety and nutritional quality of daily foods is a welcoe developent. However, uch of this interest has been aroused by sweeping clais that the conventional food supply is unsafe or inadequate in eeting nutritional needs.
Alost daily, the public is surrounded by clais for “no-aging” diets, new vitains and other wonder foods. There are nuerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitains are superior to an-ade ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than those treated with insect spray and the like.
Although ost of these clais are not supported by scientific evidence, large aounts of written aterial about the benefits of organic foods akes it difficult for people to separate fact fro fiction. As a result, clais that eating a diet consisting of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have becoe widely advertised and for the basis for people’s opinion.
One thing that ost organically grown food products see to have in coon is that they cost ore than conventionally grown foods. But in any cases consuers are isled if they believe organic foods can aintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consuers, particularly those with liited incoes, distrust the conventional food supply and buy only expensive organic foods instead.

41. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following stateents about organic food is true?
A. It has no agreed definition.
B. It is popular aong producers.
C. It is accepted by ost nutritionists.
D. It hasn’t been used until recent years.
42. In Paragraph 4, treated grains are exaples of ________.
A. organic food B. conventionally grown food
C. expensive food D. healthier food
43. It can be inferred fro the passage that ________.
A. organic foods are actually less nutritious than conventionally grown foods
B. people cannot separate fact fro fiction because of the TV advertiseents
C. organic foods cost ore but are not necessarily better than conventionally grown foods
D. ost doctors believe that organic foods prevent disease or provide other benefits to health
44. According to the passage, any consuers are attracted by organic foods because they _____.
A. have carefully researched the products
B. value food safety and nutrition
C. expect to save soe oney
D. want to try soething new
45. What is the author’s attitude toward the clais of organic foods?

读写任务:
As the author points out, teaching children to save oney, keeping responsible credit and being patient when aking purchases will help the have a better future.
In y opinion, it is essential for parents to teach children how to anage their oney responsibly before they ove out of hoe. Without such knowledge, people will not be able to axiize the quality of their life and ay even get in debt.
I think five to six is an appropriate age to begin teaching children oney anageent skills. Parents ay accopany their children to the bank and help the open an account in which they can save their lucky oney. This can be used to pay for their schooling, which will help the understand the true value of oney.
This is exactly what y parents asked e to do when I was young and thanks to the I don’t waste y oney on frivolous or unnecessary purchase.
