Only 15 years later, he was a billionaire. And by 1992, as head of the Microsoft company, he became the richest man in America with assets (资产) of about US$6.3 billion. Gates was born in Seattle Washington on 28, October 1956. He first started to play with the computer at the age of 13 at his school. At that time, computers were very large machines. Operators were required to learn complex computer languages before the machines could be used. Even then, a great deal of time and effort was needed to perform the simplest functions. Before long Gates was an expert at working the schools computer. After his graduation from secondary school, Gates was accepted by the three top universities in the USA — Princeton, Harvard and Yale. He chose Harvard and began classes there the next autumn, majoring in maths. But he spent as much time in the computer laboratories as he did in the lecture halls. By 1975, Gates and a partner, Paul Allen, had developed a software program called BASIC. This was not the first program ever created, but its inventors were the first to decide that people who wanted to use it should pay for it. BASIC was a success because until it came along there had been no efficient way of getting computers to carry out instructions. Although he had not yet completed his degree, Gates left university and went to work full-time for the new company he had formed called Microsoft. His next project was the software program that made him famous and very rich. It was called DOS, short for Disk Operating System, and it was bought by IBM in 1980. Today it is the operating system used in more than 14 million personal computers around the world. As chief executive officer of Microsoft, Gates is known as a bright man. To most people, Gates, in spite of his wealth, is humble and ordinary. He spends his money carefully and often eats in fast-food restaurants. 21. When he was a teenager, Bill Gates wanted to be ________. A. an engineer B. a scientist C. a millionaire D. a professor 22. Bill Gates became a billionaire ________. A. at the age of 31 B. in 1985 C. in the 1970’s D. by 1992 23. When Gates was in Harvard University, he ________. A. became head of Microsoft company B. spent most of his time in computer laboratories C. developed the first computer program D. succeeded in making computers carry out instructions 24. Before the invention of BASIC, software programs ________. A. were very cheap B. were not considered commercially (商业地) C. were very expensive D. were complex but dull 25. Bill Gates was regarded as ________. A. a strong-minded man B. a crazy man C. a man spending freely D. a common, normal person Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth.” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill. If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice. Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day. A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man. “But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.” 26. The writer thinks that ________. A. health is more important than wealth B. work is as important as studies C. medicine is more important than pleasure D. nothing is more important than money 27. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do ________. A. without examining the patient B. after he has examined the patient C. if the patient doesn’t take medicine D. unless the patient feels pain 28. The underlined part means “________”. A. he was feeling better than ever B. he wasn’t a healthy man C. he was feeling worse than before D. he will be well again 29. From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man ________ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day. A. was a heavy smoker B. didn’t smoke so much C. didn’t smoke D. began to learn to smoke 30. Which of the following is NOT true? A. The doctor usually tests his/ her blood pressure when a person is ill. B. The man told the doctor he couldn’t remember things. C. The man thanked the doctor. D. The man didn’t follow the doctor’s advice. Studying abroad is a worthwhile and often life-changing experience, but be sure to check out these 3 disadvantages of study abroad—before you start planning. Disadvantage 1: Cultural Barriers Communication is essential to efficiency. ____31____ It’s important to know the level of fluency that will be expected of you, both from your teachers and peers and the locals with whom you’ll be communicating abroad. In addition, you may find yourself jolted (受挫) by the sudden shift in culture. Everything from food and religion to transportation systems and style of dress may differ from those in your home country. ____32____ If you are not properly prepared to cope with these differences, they can lead to great stress. Disadvantage 2: You’re On Your Own Navigating a foreign destination on your own can be an intimidating experience. Some of you may experience certain aspects of independence for the very first time. ____33____ Because some of the worst symptoms of culture shock can result from the realization that you no longer have your friends and family alongside you, it’s important that you’re fully prepared for this transition. Disadvantage 3: ____34____ Travel expenses, tuition, books, room and board, bills, transportation, and overall cost of living can add up quickly when living abroad. ____35____ Consider that you’ll likely want to go out and explore your new home in addition to studying, so be sure to set aside plenty of cash for tourism, transportation, and entertainment, as well as for emergencies. A. Studying Abroad is Expensive B. Language barriers exist in every country. C. Make sure your study abroad college or program is accredited (可信任的). D. Research cultural and regional norms and expectations before you go. E This culture shock can lead to feelings of anxiety and homesickness. F. Depending on where you choose to study abroad, your expenses can vary greatly in cost. G Perhaps you’ve never lived on your own or have yet to travel outside of your home country. 三、翻译题（共5题，共15分） 36.

(1972年，十几岁的比尔·盖茨曾经说过，他要在20岁时成为百万富翁。仅仅15年后，他就成为了亿万富翁。)”可知，比尔·盖茨1956年10月28日出生，1972年（他16岁），他计划在20岁时成为百万富翁，仅15年后（他31岁），他成为了亿万富翁。故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“By 1975, Gates and a partner, Paul Allen, had developed a software program called BASIC ...

This was not the first program ever created, but its inventors were the first to decide that people who wanted to use it should pay for it. (1975年，盖茨和他的合伙人保罗·艾伦开发了一个叫做BASIC的软件程序。这不是第一个被创造出来的程序，但它的发明者是第一个决定想要使用它的人应该为它付费的人。)”可知，BASIC是第一个需要付费使用的软件程序，由此可知，在BASIC发明之前，软件程序不需要付费使用，即不被认为是具有商业价值的。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To most people, Gates, in spite of his wealth, is humble and ordinary. (对大多数人来说，尽管盖茨很富有，但他是谦逊而平凡的。)”可知，比尔盖茨被认为是一个平凡的普通人。故选D。 Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth.” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill. If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice. Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story.

Some of you may experience certain aspects of independence for the very first time. ____33____ Because some of the worst symptoms of culture shock can result from the realization that you no longer have your friends and family alongside you, it’s important that you’re fully prepared for this transition. Disadvantage 3: ____34____ Travel expenses tuition, books, room and board, bills, transportation, and overall cost of living can add up quickly when living abroad. ____35____ Consider that you’ll likely want to go out and explore your new home in addition to studying, so be sure to set aside plenty of cash for tourism, transportation, and entertainment, as well as for emergencies.

Research cultural and regional norms and expectations before you go. E. This culture shock can lead to feelings of anxiety and homesickness. F.

The room is empty except for a bookshelf ________. 除了有一个立在角落里的书架外，这个房间是空的。（词数不限） 【答案】standing in the corner 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词和介词短语。“立”是动词“stand”，此处作非谓语，与逻辑主语“bookshelf”之间是主动关系，因此使用现在分词作后置定语；“在角落里”是介词短语“in the corner”。故答案为：standing in the corner。 37. 你还有其它什么要说的吗？ Do you have ________ ________ ________ ________? 【答案】 ①. anything ②. else ③. to ④. say 【解析】 【详解】考查不定代词和非谓语动词。句子是一般疑问句，“其他什么”应使用形容词else修饰不定代词anything，形容词要放在不定代词之后；“要说的”使用不定式to say作后置定语。故答案为anything；else；to；say。 38. 今天，你不要麻烦为我预备晚饭了，我要在外边吃。（词数不限）（get） You don’t bother ________ today; I’ll eat out. 【答案】to get dinner for me 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。“为我预备晚饭”可用动词短语“get dinner for me”，动词bother后应接to do不定式作宾语，表示“费心去做某事”。故答案为to get dinner for me。 39. If ________ (我没有喝) alcohol last night, I could have driven my car home. (词数不限) (drink) 【答案】I hadn’t drunk 【解析】 【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：如果我昨晚没有喝酒，我就能开车回家了。根据“last night”以及“could have driven”可知，此处是对过去情况的虚拟，if引导的条件状语从句要用过去完成时（had + 过去分词）。我：I，作从句主语；没有喝：hadn’t drunk，drink的过去分词是drunk，故填hadn’t drunk。 40. 这段曲调轻松的音乐很快就使我放松下来。 The relaxing music soon ________________. 【答案】put me at ease 【解析】 【详解】考查一般过去时和动词短语。根据句意可知，此处表示已经发生的事情，可用一般过去时；“使……放松下来”为短语“put sb at ease”，“我”为“me”，作宾语；其中at ease作宾语补足语；put的过去式为put。故填put me at ease。 四、短文填空：本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分 短文填空 Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel, the world’s first igloo (冰屋) hotel. ____41____ (build) in a small town, it has been attracting lots of visitors, but soon the fun will be over. In two weeks’ time Bergqvist’s ice creation ____42____ (be) nothing more than a pool of water. “We don’t see it as a big problem,” he says. “We just look forward to ____43____ (replace) it.” Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition.

At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms. 【答案】41. Built 42. will be 43. replacing 44. so 45. which 46. piling 47. was removed 48. to hang 49. than 50. from 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了世界上第一个雪屋酒店，以及后来酒店的发展。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：它建在一个小镇上，吸引了很多游客，但很快乐趣就会结束。句中“has been attracting”是句子的谓语部分，空处动词build为非谓语动词，它的逻辑主语为it，是动词build的承受者，所以要用过去分词作状语，句首首字母要大写。故填Built。 【42题详解】 考查时态。句意：两周后，Bergqvist创造的冰将变成一池水。句中时间状语“In two weeks’ time”表将来，所以用一般将来时。故填will be。 【43题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：我们只是期待更换它。look forward to doing sth.为固定短语，意为“期待做某事”，因此要用replace的动名词形式replacing。故填replacing。 【44题详解】 考查副词。句意：它如此成功，以至于他设计了现在的建筑，面积约为200平方米。所填词修饰后面的形容词successful，因此应使用副词，so ... that ...表示“如此……以至于……”，为固定用法。故填so。 【45题详解】 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：它如此成功，以至于他设计了现在的建筑，面积约为200平方米。分析句子可知，“... measures roughly 200 square meters”是非限制性定语从句，先行词是one，指物，关系代词在非限制性定语从句中作主语。故填which。 【46题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：6名工人花了8个多星期把1000吨雪堆在一个木制底座上；当雪结冰时，基座就被移走了。spend some time (in) doing sth.是固定搭配，意为“花费时间做某事”。故填piling。 【47题详解】 考查时态和语态。句意：6名工人花了8个多星期把1000吨雪堆在一个木制底座上；当雪结冰时，基座就被移走了。前面的状语从句“when the snow froze”用了一般过去时，说明动作发生在过去，主句也要用一般过去时，主句的主语是“the base”是第三人称单数，与动词remove之间是被动关系，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态was removed。故填was removed。 【48题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：没有窗户，没有地方挂衣服，气温低于0摄氏度，这看起来更像是一场生存测试，而不是放松的酒店假期。不定副词“nowhere”后接to do不定式作后置定语，表示“没有可以做某事的地方”。故填to hang。 【49题详解】 考查介词。句意：没有窗户，没有地方挂衣服，气温低于0摄氏度，这看起来更像是一场生存测试，而不是放松的酒店假期。固定搭配“more ... than”意为“与其说……，倒不如说……”，与其说它是一个放松的酒店假期，倒不如说是一个生存测试。故填than。 【50题详解】 考查介词。句意：冰屋的受欢迎程度是毋庸置疑的：它现在正吸引着来自世界各地的游客。from all over the world表示“来自世界各地”，为固定搭配。故填from。 五、写作题（共1题，共25分） 51. 假设你是李华，有一位澳大利亚朋友Rose托你在北京找一份工作。你在21世纪报上看到了一则招聘广告，认为对她很合适。请你用英文写一封信，告知她此事。广告原文如下： FOREIGN TEACHERS WANTED The train Department of the Ladder Institute is running an English course for children and grown ups.
