Signs in Chinese will be set up in public areas, such as airports, to help Chinese travele
rs, the Italian Government announced in late February,2005. Now many European countries are expected to follow this example.

Despite the different language, traveling across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas(签证) from the two countries. You also needed a calculator(计算器) because both countries had different money.

Today, with a Schengen Visa issued(签发)by any member countries, you Can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid (有效的) in the other countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere.

All the countries in the continent are melting(融于) into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors the result is that it is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries.

What does the writer mean by saying" Now many European countries ,are expected to follow this ______. example" (Lines 2 - 3, Para. 1 )?

A.More signs will be set up for Chinese in other European countries.

B.Chinese is now an important language in Europe.

听力原文:"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is a popular saying in the United St

听力原文: "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is a popular saying in the United States. Other countries have similar sayings. It is true that all of us need recreation. We cannot work all the time if we want to maintain good health and enjoy life.

Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular way is to participate in sports. There are team sports such as baseball, basketball and football. There are individual sports such as golf and swimming. In addition, hiking, fishing, skiing and mountain climbing have a great attraction to people who like to be outdoors.

Not everyone who enjoys sporting events likes to participate in them. Many people prefer to be spectators, either by attending the game in person, watching them on television, or listening to them on the radio. When there is an important baseball game or boxing match it is almost impossible to get tickets; everybody wants to attend. Chess, card-playing and dancing are forms of indoors recreation enjoyed by many people.

It doesn't mater whether we play a fast game of table-tennis, or go walking through the woods on a brisk autumn day. It is important for everyone to relax from time to time and enjoy some form. of recreation.

(33)

A.It is a story about a dull boy.

B.Jack worked for a whole day.

C.Everyone needs recreation to keep fit.

D.Playing is good, but work is dull.

Euphemism(委婉语)as a figure of speech(修辞手段)is more than just saying something unp

leasant in a pleasant way. In the words of a famous sociolinguist(社会语言学家), “The euphemism is a recognition(认知)by man of man’s imperfection(不完美;缺憾), and at the same time a recognition by man that he belongs to better things. It is a false word substituted for(代替)the true word in order to soften the chock of reality(现实的混乱).”

It would seem then that the urge to speak euphemistically is a universal trait(普遍特征), but varying in scope and motive with different individuals in different circumstance (环境). Sometimes in some cases euphemisms go so far as some writers condemn(谴责) euphemisms as demoralizing(道德败坏). “In the hearings(听证会), criminality (犯罪行为) is given scores of numbing (使麻木) disguises(隐藏)… the roster(名册)seems endless: dirty tricks (卑劣行为), laundered money(洗钱), telephone anomalies(电话异常)—all perform. the same function: the separation of words from the truth.” However, the fact remains that euphemisms are very much part of the language, it is more important for us to be able to read into them to get the real meaning from them.

Since the purpose of using euphemism is to reduce the unpleasantness of a term or notion, it is natural to find many euphemistic terms used in governments' announcements(公告), in international relations, and in the military(军事). For example, the former(前任)President of United States Ronald Reagon(里根)who had promised the American public to cut taxes called for(号召)revenue enhancements (加强预算)instead of “tax increases”. The term for “the third world countries” was at first underdeveloped nations(不发达国家), then developing countries(发展中国家)and then emerging nations(新兴国家)took its places.

Questions 1-5: Decide whether the following statements are True or False according to the passage.

1.Euphemism, as a figure of speech, is simply saying something unpleasant in a pleasant way.()

A.True

B.False

2.To some sociolinguist, people use euphemisms in order to avoid being cheated.()

A.True

B.False

3.People everywhere use euphemisms.()

A.True

B.False

4.Since euphemisms tend to separate words from truth, we have to be able to understand the real meaning from them.()

A.True

B.False

5.One seldom sees euphemisms used in international relations.()

A.True

B.False

Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are grea
t conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year, or manured(施肥于) a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers.

People think a great deal of them, so much that on all the highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight; so do savages; hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently-this, after all, is what conquerors and generals have done—is not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And not only has it won, but, because it has won, it has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might is right.

That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed or mutilated. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets-while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life—nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.

The first sentence of the passage tells us that ______.

A.most history books were written by conquerors, generals and soldiers

B.those who really helped civilization forward is not mentioned in any history book

C.conquerors, generals and soldiers should not be mentioned in history books

D.history books tells us far more about conquerors and soldiers than about those who really helped civilization forward

听力原文: (32) Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year, or manured (施肥)a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers.

And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized.

Animals fight; so do savages (野蛮人); (33) hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently—this, after all, is what conquerors and generals have done—is not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels.

(34) And it not only has won, but, because it has won, has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might is right.

That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed or disabled. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets—while, that is to say, (35) we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life—nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.

32. Which kind of people appears most often in the history books?

33.What does it probably mean if people "are good at fighting"?

34.What is the reason for so many wars according to the passage?

35.What kind of civilization do we have in our modern society?

(33)

A.People who invented the TV.

Daylight Saving Time begins on Monday, April 3, 2005. People in most parts of the United States will turn their clocks ahead one hour.

The official(正式的) time to turn your clock ahead is early in the morning, April 3. Two a.m. becomes three am. Sunday will have only 23 hours. (Most people change their clocks before they go to sleep Saturday night.)

In the fall, people turn their clock back an hour. This saying helps people remember which way to turn the clock: "Spring ahead; fall back." (Spring and fall each have two meanings here.)
