Each passage is followed by 5 questionsorunfinishedsentences.Foreachofthemthereare4choicesmarkedA, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and Mark your choice on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1 If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are. Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge. The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly. With so many loopholes (漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real“gentleman”. In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others? 31. While taking a taxi in Finland, ______. A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver B. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi ride

C. a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to go D. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration before they leave without paying 32. We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland ______. A. provide meal for only those who live in the hotels B. provide meals for any diners C. provide free wine and charge for food D. are mostly poorly managed 32. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour. B. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees. C. The workers are always honest with their working hours. D. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay. 33. The word “those” in the last paragraph probably refers to ______. A. people who often take taxis B. people who often have meals in big hotels C. people who are dishonest D. people who are worthy of trust 34. It can be concluded that ______. A. Finnish people are not smart enough in daily life B. Finland has been a good place for cheats C. the Finnish society is of very high moral level D. all the Finns are rich Passage 2 There are many factors which may have an influence on adults and children being able to lead a healthy life. Nowadays, people are very busy. Often, both parents work outside the home. Children are expected to take on more responsibility at home to help their parents. They also have sporting and leisure activities as well as school expectations. The busyness also adds another factor: the need to use cars to get from one place to another quickly. Today, society places a lot of emphasis on technology. Computers, DVDs. CDs, television, PlayStations and Xboxes have become major leisure activities, rather than traditional more active pursuits. This has led to a more sedentarylifestyle. The media provide entertainment and information. Unfortunately, they also promote fast food which fits easily into busy lifestyles. It is much more convenient at times to buy a quick takeaway rather than prepare a meal. The media constantly bombard (轰炸) their audience with ‘perfect’ body images, the need to buy the most fashionable clothes, the most up-to-date computer games, the best places to visit and the best things to do.

Environments vary. We may be exposed to pollution, such as cigarette smoke. This can be harmful to people who suffer from breathing difficulties. Environments where passive smoking is unavoidable make it difficult to lead a healthy life. The most important factor influencing healthy lifestyles is motivation, or the desire to be healthy. Any person who wants to be healthy will find a way to be healthy —if he/she is motivated enough! 35. The passage is mainly about _____. A. benefits of a healthy life style B. demands of daily life C. factors affecting a healthy lifestyle D. a positive approach to healthy living 36. The word “sedentary” in Paragraph 4 probable means _____. A. having a lot of things to do B. involving little exercise or physical activity C. being isolated from the outside world D. experiencing a lot of stress 37. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a factor leading to the popularity of fast food? A. Cheap price. B. The media. D. Convenience 38. Which is NOT listed as a factor influencing the ability to have a healthy C. Busy lifestyle. lifestyle? A. Pollution. C. Dependence upon cars. B. Economic factors. D. Influence of family or friends. 39. According to the author, _____ may be the most important factor influencing healthy lifestyles. A. technology C. environment Passage 3 B. cultural background D. the desire to be healthy Why are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods? One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body. Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods. When we cook foods, we destroy the natural enzymes（酶）that are part of the food in its raw form. These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food. When we consume food without these natural enzymes, our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream. In both instances, the result is obesity. When too many nutrients are absorbed at once, the body grows fat. Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract, where it becomes increasingly acidic. To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste, the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safely away from the organs. Processed foods contain chemical elements, which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells us when we’ve had enough to eat; as a result, people often overeat. Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle. The body will either

identify these foods as allergens（过敏素）and then store them safely away from the organs as fat, or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste, which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients heading for the body’s cells. The body’ s metabolism（新陈代谢） becomes inactive, and the result is weight gain and obesity. The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient. When that happens, even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become more common. To stop this vicious circle in its tracks, people need to consume food and supplements that will neutralize the acid already accumulated in body. Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help. It’s also important to restore your enzyme balance. You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulation and consume the foods that increase enzyme production. If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself, you need to take an active approach. 40. It can be inferred from Para.2 that _____. A. foods with natural enzymes help people keep fit B. we’d better be cautious about raw and whole foods C. it is essential for people to protect their vital organs D. giving up cooked and refined foods is a new lifestyle 41. Processed foods are unhealthy because they _____. A. destroy body’s cells C. are difficult to digest B. may lead to obesity D. stop body’s metabolism 42. The underlined word “vicious” in the last paragraph means _____. A. violent B. cruel C. unpleasantly strong D. unkind 43. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To warn people of the problem of obesity. B. To advocate eating more raw and whole foods. C. To inform people of the harm of processed foods. D. To tell the differences between raw and processed foods. 44. What is likely to be talked about following the last paragraph? A. Different causes of acid accumulation. B. Correct ways to cook raw foods. C. Suitable types of raw and whole foods. D. Active approaches to avoid acid. Part III Translation (20%) A.
