Over the past few decades, more and more countries have opened up the markets, increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market. The question is：Is economic globalization   50  for all?
According to the World Bank, one of its chief supporters, economic globalization has helped reduce   51  in a large number of developing countries. It quotes one study that shows increased wealth   52  to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries as a result of integration (融合) of local economies into the world economy. Home to some three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seen incomes   53  at an average rate of five percent—compared to two percent in developed countries.
Those who   54  globalization claim that economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses.   55 , small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in   56  open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.
Critics take a different view, believing that economic globalization is actually   57  the gap between the rich and poor. A study carried out by the U.N.-sponsored World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization shows that only a few developing countries have actually   58  from integration into the world economy and that the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind.   59 , they maintain that globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses. For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem to benefit from globalization because they are able to   60  their products may soon face fierce competition that could put them out of   61 . When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, or when superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses will not be able to   62  and will be crowded out.
One thing is certain about globalization—there is no   63 . Advances in technology combined with more open policies have already created an interconnected world. The   64  now is finding a way to create a kind of globalization that works for the benefit of all.                                                  (347 words)

【文章大意】文章主要講述的是市場(chǎng)開放，即全球化給人們帶來的影響。文章中包含兩種相反的觀點(diǎn)，一種觀點(diǎn)陳述的是全球化帶來的好處，一種觀點(diǎn)陳述的是全球化帶來的問題，各有充足的論點(diǎn)和論據(jù)。文章最后，得出結(jié)論，全球化不可避免、無回頭路可走，只有想辦法找到一條最好的全球化的道路。
小題1:possible意為可能 smooth 意為順利的，光滑的，平穩(wěn)的 good好的 easy簡(jiǎn)單的。根據(jù)上一句的“increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market”逐漸地把世界經(jīng)濟(jì)轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)榱艘粋�(gè)自由流動(dòng)的全球大市場(chǎng)。很明顯這是講的市場(chǎng)開放的好處，因此后面提出問題，“問題是，經(jīng)濟(jì)全球化對(duì)所有人都好嗎（有好處嗎）？”，故選擇C項(xiàng)。
小題2:根據(jù)后文的“It quotes one study that shows increased wealth   52  to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries ”中的increased wealth增加的財(cái)富，可知，市場(chǎng)開放給這些國(guó)家?guī)砹素?cái)富的增加，財(cái)富增加了，那么就是減少了貧困問題，即選擇B項(xiàng)。Crime犯罪 poverty貧困 conflict沖突 population人口
小題3:contribute to 促成，導(dǎo)致 respond to 對(duì)……做出反應(yīng) turn to 轉(zhuǎn)向，向某人求助 owe to由于，根據(jù)后面的improved education and longer life 可知，教育得到了改善，人的壽命得到了延長(zhǎng)，因此是產(chǎn)生了好的促進(jìn)作用，因此選擇A項(xiàng)。
小題4:根據(jù)上文中的It quotes one study that shows increased wealth   52  to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries可知，這24個(gè)國(guó)家的財(cái)富增加了，也就是說他們的收入增加了，即increase。句意為，這24個(gè)國(guó)家的人的收入增加了平均百分之五。Remain 仍然 drop下降 shift變化 increase增加，因此選擇D
小題5:doubt   懷疑； define      定義、規(guī)定、明確；advocate   提倡、擁護(hù)； ignore忽視，根據(jù)后面的 “economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses”發(fā)展中國(guó)家的經(jīng)濟(jì)會(huì)收益，源于小型的、家庭型生意獲得的新機(jī)會(huì)，尤其是其中的“benefit from”可知，該觀點(diǎn)的those人們是支持，提倡市場(chǎng)開放的，因此選擇C項(xiàng)。
小題6:上一句講到了小型的、家庭型的生意會(huì)獲得等多的機(jī)會(huì)，該句講的是他們具體是得到怎樣的機(jī)會(huì)，因此屬于具體說明、舉例說明，故選擇B 項(xiàng)的for instance意為例如。In addition意為此外，表遞進(jìn)關(guān)系。In other words換句話說，All in all總而言之。
小題7:根據(jù)后面的“can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.”中的now, worldwide與前半句的originally和 in   56  open-air markets 是對(duì)比關(guān)系，即過去是當(dāng)?shù)厥袌?chǎng)，現(xiàn)在市場(chǎng)開放后是全球市場(chǎng)。因此選擇C項(xiàng)，local 意為當(dāng)?shù)氐模籱ature意為成熟的；new意為新的；foreign意為國(guó)外的
小題8:根據(jù)前面的“Critics take a different view”可知，該部分陳述的是反對(duì)市場(chǎng)開放的觀點(diǎn)，因此他們認(rèn)為市場(chǎng)開放會(huì)加大（widen）窮人和富人之間的差距。Widen 變寬；find找到；explore探索；bridge架橋、度過，故選擇D，widen
小題9:suffer遭受； profit獲益、盈利；learn學(xué)習(xí)；withdraw撤退、收回。根據(jù)后面的“ the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind”可知，窮人、未受教育的人、沒有技術(shù)的工人和當(dāng)?shù)厝硕急粊G在了后面，也就是說只有少部分人是從中（市場(chǎng)開放）收益的，即profit from sth,從……中受益、獲益
小題10:根據(jù)下文的“globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses.”意為全球化會(huì)逐漸威脅到新興企業(yè)。該觀點(diǎn)與上面幾句的觀點(diǎn)類似，都是屬于反對(duì)市場(chǎng)開放的，但是該觀點(diǎn)與上面的加大貧富差距不一樣，因此跟上一觀點(diǎn)是遞進(jìn)關(guān)系，因此選擇A項(xiàng)，furthermore意為，此外，表遞進(jìn)關(guān)系。Therefore意為因此，因果關(guān)系，however然而，轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系 otherwise否則，轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系

小題12:根據(jù)“face fierce competition ”可知，激烈的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致他們破產(chǎn)，即out of business.故選擇B項(xiàng)。Out of trouble 脫離困境  out of power 喪失權(quán)利  out of mind心不在焉
小題13:keep up保持、繼續(xù)、不落后；come in進(jìn)來；go around四處走動(dòng)、供應(yīng)； help out幫助……擺脫困境。根據(jù)上文的out of business破產(chǎn)和下文的be crowded out被排擠出去可知，此處指的是小手藝人的生意將不能繼續(xù)下去。故選擇A
小題14:根據(jù)下文可知，隨著科技的發(fā)展，還會(huì)有更多的開放政策，將會(huì)出現(xiàn)更好的全球化，因此可知，全球化是必然的，是沒有回頭路可走的，因此選擇D項(xiàng)，turn back意為往回走。Take off意為起飛，脫掉；get along意為相處、進(jìn)展；hold out意為伸出、堅(jiān)持。
小題15:agreement意為同意、一致； prediction預(yù)測(cè)、預(yù)計(jì)；outcome意為后果；challenge意為挑戰(zhàn)。該句句意為，目前最大的挑戰(zhàn)就是找到一個(gè)方法，來創(chuàng)造出一個(gè)能夠?qū)γ恳粋�(gè)人都有好處的全球化。

“I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face”. A charming way of saying “Keep off the grass”. But could you figure it out? Or this: “Wash Clothing Store” for laundry.
They are both typical Chinglish, a combination of English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. Expressions such as “people mountain people sea”, means extremely crowded, and “give you some color to see”, meaning a punishment, are widely known and recognized.
Chinglish has been attracting global attention in recent years as China grows rapidly in status on the world stage, attracting both fans and detractors(批評(píng)者).
The Beijing Speaks Foreign Languages Programme and English First China Company, a language trainer known as EF Education, jointly launched a campaign to root out poor grammar and misused vocabulary in downtown Beijing. They argue Chinglish is an embarrassment that we should let it die out at all costs.
“It is meaningful to allow the capital to show its most beautiful historical and cultural heritage to the world." Michael Lu, vice-president of EF Education said, “since the launching of the campaign, foreign teachers and students had been very keen to volunteer participation.”He believed signs were very important in public services. "The signs in some old buildings confused foreign visitors.
Chinglish, although the target of much criticism, has also won supporters who regard it as an interesting way for foreigners to learn how Chinese people think and express themselves.
“Many Chinglish logos carry Chinese elements and they will enrich the English language,” 32-year-old Oliver Radtke said. He had even published a book “Chinglish: Found in Translation,” on the subject. About 50,000 copies of the book have been sold since it was published in 2007.
Some Chinese university experts also side with Chinglish. "English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth, and the emergence of Chinglish again testifies(說明) to the language’s vitality and inclusiveness," said Shi Anbin, an associate professor of Tsinghua University.
小題1:How did Chinglish come into being?
A．Chinese people misunderstood the meaning of the new words.
B．Chinese people combined English vocabulary with Chinese grammar.
C．Chinese people based their English on the native English speakers.
D．Chinese people make wide use of English vocabulary with bad spelling.
小題2:What Shi Anbin said means       .
A．there are many French and Spanish words in English
B．English is the language with vitality and inclusiveness
C．Chinglish enriches English and shouldn’t be got rid of
D．Chinglish has greater effect on English than French and Spanish
小題3:According to Oliver Radtke, Chinglish       .
A．shows how Chinese people think
B．does damage to the English language
C．shows the great humor of Chinese people
D．should be sold to all over the world

“Indeed，” George Washington wrote in his diary in 1985, “some kind of fly, or bug, had begun to eat the leaves before I left home.” But the father of America was not the father of bug. When Washington wrote that, Englishmen had been referring to insects as bugs for more than a century, and Americans had already created lighining-bug(螢火蟲)。But the English were soon to stop using the bugs in their language, leaving it to the Americans to call a bug a bug in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The American bug could also be a person, referring to someone who was crazy about a particular activity. Althoug fan became the usual term. sports fans used to be called racing bugs, baseballbugs, and the like.
Or the bug could be a small machine or object, for example, a bug-shaped car. The bug could also be a burglar alarm, from which comes the expression to bug, that is, “to install (安裝) an alarm”. Now it means a small piece of equipment that people use for listening secretly to others’ conversation. Since the 1840s, to bug has long meant “to cheat”, and since the 1940s it has been annoying.
We also know the bug as a flaw in a computer program or other design. That meaning dates back to the time of Thomas Edison. In 1878 he explained bugs as “l(fā)ittle problems and difficulties” that required months of study and labor to overcome in developing a successful product. In 1889 it was recorded that Edison “had been up the two previous nights discovering ‘a(chǎn) bug’ in his invented record player.”
小題1:We learn from Paragraph 1 that ___________.
A．Americans had difficulty in learning to use the word bug
B．George Washington was the first person to call an insect a bug
C．the word bug was still popularly used in English in the nineteenth century
D．both Englishmen and Americans used the word bug in the eighteenth century

(The Guardian)More UK universities should be profiting from ideas
　　A repeated criticism of the UK's university sector is its noticeable weakness in translating new knowledge into new products and services.
　　Recently, the UK National Stem Cell Network warned the UK could lose its place among the world leaders in stem cell research unless adequate funding and legislation could be assured, despite an annual £40m spent by the Department of Health on all kinds of research.
　　However, we do have to challenge the unthinking complaint that the sector does not do enough in taking ideas to market. The most recent comparative data on the performance of universities and research institutions in Australia, Canada, USA and UK shows that, from a relatively weak starting position, the UK now leads on many indicators of commercialization activity.
　　When viewed at the national level, the policy interventions (interference) of the past decade have helped transformed the performances of UK universities. Evidence suggests the UK's position is much stronger than in the recent past and is still showing improvement. But national data masks the very large variation in the performance of individual universities. The evidence shows that a large number of universities have fallen off the back of the pack, a few perform strongly and the rest chase the leaders.
　　This type of uneven distribution is not strange to the UK and is mirrored across other economies. In the UK, research is concentrated: less than 25% of universities are receiving 75% of the research funding. These same universities are also the institutions producing the greatest share of PhD graduates, science citations, patents and license income. The effect of policies generating long-term resource concentration has also created a distinctive set of universities which are research-led and commercially active. It seems clear that the concentration of research and commercialization work creates differences between universities.
　　The core objective for universities which are research-led must be to maximize the impact of their research efforts. Their purpose is not to generate funds to add to the bottom line of the university or to substitute other income streams. Rather, these universities should be generating the widest range of social, economic and environmental benefits. In return for the scale of investment, they should share their expertise (expert knowledge or skill) in order to build greater confidence in the sector.
　　Part of the economic recovery of the UK will be driven by the next generation of research commercialization spilling out of our universities. On the evidence presented in my report, there are three dozen universities in the UK which are actively engaged in advanced research training and commercialization work.
　　If there was a greater coordination（協(xié)調(diào)）of technology transfer offices within regions and a simultaneous (happening at the same time) investment in the scale and functions of our graduate schools, universities could, and should, play a key role in positioning the UK for the next growth cycle.
小題1:What does the author think of UK universities in terms of commercialization?
A．They have lost their leading position in many ways.
B．They still have a place among the world leaders.
C．They do not regard it as their responsibility.
D．They fail to change knowledge into money.
小題2:What does the author say about the national data on UK universities’ performance in
commercialization?
A．It masks the fatal weaknesses of government policy.
B．It indicates their ineffective use of government resources.
C．It does not rank UK universities in a scientific way.
D．It does not reflect the differences among universities.
小題3:We can infer from Paragraph 5 that “policy interventions (in Paragraph 4)” refers to _____.
A．concentration of resources in a limited number of universities
B．compulsory cooperation between universities and industries
C．government aid to non-research-oriented universities
D．fair distribution of funding for universities and research institutions
小題4:What dose the author suggest research-led universities do?
A．Fully use their research to benefit all sectors of society.
B．Generously share their facilities with those short of funds.
C．Advertise their research to win international recognition.
D．Spread their influence among top research institutions.

LONDON—Archaeologists have discovered a smaller prehistoric(史前) site near Britain’s famous circle of standing stones at Stonehenge.
Researchers have named the site “Bluehenge” after the color of the 27 Welsh stones that were laid to make up a path. The stones have disappeared, but the path of holes remains.
The new circle, unearthed over the summer by researchers from Sheffield University, represents an important find, researchers said Saturday. The site is about a mile away from Stonehenge.
Bluehenge, about 80 miles southwest of London, is believed to date back to about the time Stonehenge was built, about 5,000 years ago.
Mike Parker Pearson of Sheffield University said he believed the path and stonehenge itself were linked to rituals(儀式) of life and death.
Mike Parker suggested that the ancient funerary rituals began at a different circle site known as “Wood-henge”, which represented the world of the living. The bodies of the dead were then brought down the River Avon to Bluehenge, which represented death, and were finally carried along a ceremonial route known as the Avenue to Stonehenge.
Bournemouth University Professor Tim Darvill, an expert on Stonehenge, told Britain’s Dail Mail that Bluehenge “adds to the richness” of the ancient site’s story.
“This henge is very important because it forms part of the picture of ceremonial monuments in the area and puts Stonehenge into context,” Darvill was quoted(引述) as saying. “It’s no longer Stonehenge standing alone, but it has to be seen in context with the landscape.”
小題1:How many henges are mentioned in this passage?
A．TwoB．ThreeC．Four D．Five
小題2:Who believed the Stonehenge is related to ancient ritual of death?
A．Archaeologists from LondonB．Welsh researchers
C．Mike Parker PearsonD．Professor Tim Darvill
小題3:What does the underlined sentence “It’s no longer Stonehenge standing alone, but it has to be seen in context with the landscape.” in the last paragraph mean?
A．Stonehenge has noting to do with Bluehenge
B．Woodhenge represented the world of living in ancient times.
C．Bluehenge represented death
D．Stonehenge, Woodhenge and Bluehenge should be studied together
小題4:From the passage we can learn that ______.
A．researchers have named the site “Bluehenge,” because they have found blue huge stones there
B．funerary rituals were carried out along the path starting from Woodhenge, River Avon to Bluehenge, finally Stonehenge.
C．Bluehenge is 1 mile away from London
D．Bluehenge dates back to 2000 BC

All around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea.
In China, for example, tea is always served when people get together. The Chinese drink it at any time of the day at homes or in teahouses. They prefer their tea plain with nothing else in it. Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called a tea ceremony. It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.
Another tea drinking country is England. In England, the late afternoon is “teatime”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in teapot and drink it with cream and sugar. They also eat cakes, cookies and little sandwiches at teatime.
In the United States people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots. In summer, many Americans drink cold tea --- “iced tea”. Sometimes they drink iced tea from cans, like soda.

Two weeks after the opening ceremony, the Games are over. The last of the three hundred gold medals has been awarded and the flags of the winners have been raised for the last time.
The final event is the closing ceremony. This occasion is always sad and happy at the same time. It is a sad occasion because the tremendous excitement is over, and it will not happen again for four years. Those who have made friends will have to say goodbye, perhaps for ever. It is also a happy occasion because the competition is over and the athletes can really show their friendship for one another.
The closing ceremony is rather like the opening. But now the Olympic flame goes out and the Olympic flag, with its five rings, is lowered. The person who closes the Games calls upon the youth of the world to meet again in four years’ time. The scoreboard lights up with the name of the city for the next Games and the band starts to play. Then the celebration starts.
All the athletes try to be at the closing ceremony. They have forgotten all their fears and worries. It does not matter whether they have done well or not. All the teams walk round the stadium together. Everybody is laughing and joking. The band plays and people start to dance.
After that, everybody in the Village clears up and gets ready to leave. Everyone is hunting for souvenirs. People exchange track suits, hats, running vests and badges. There is a last chance to take photographs and get addresses of new friends. Then each team starts its journey home.

Every culture has a recognized point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license, they drive into the grown-up world.
“Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school,” said Eleanor Fulham, 17. She brought the pressure back to memory, especially from kids from wealthier families. “It’s like you’re not cool if you don’t have a car,” she said.
According to recent research, 41% of 16 to 19-year-olds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985. Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part-time jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with subways and limited parking, some teenagers don’t want them. But in rich suburban areas without subways, and where bicycles are more for fun than transportation, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16-year-olds have almost three times more accidents than 18 and 19-year-olds. This has made many parents pause before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his learner’s permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents’ decision, although it has caused some teasing from his friends. “They say that I am unlucky,” he said, “But I’d rather be alive than driving, and I don’t really trust my friends on the road, either.”
In China, as more families get cars, more 18-year-olds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to becoming an adult?
小題1:Which may serve as the BEST title of the article?
A．Cars Helping You to Grow-UpB．Driving into the Grown-Up World
C．Teenagers’ Driving in AmericaD．Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult
小題2:16-year-old drivers have more accidents possibly because           .
A．they want to show themselves offB．they are never experienced drivers
C．older people always drive betterD．they never drive carefully on the road
小題3:Which may NOT be taken into consideration when deciding whether to buy a car?
A．How well off the family is.
B．Whether the kid is old enough.
C．What traffic condition there is around.
D．Whether it’s practically needed.
小題4:When Chad said “I don’t really trust my friends ...”, he meant that           .
A．he might run into his friends if he drove
B．he didn’t agree with his friends
C．he might not be safe if his friends drove
D．he was afraid that his friends might well lie to him
小題5:The passage mainly gives information about           .
A．a(chǎn)n American culture
B．a(chǎn) cultural difference between America and China
C．a(chǎn) change in the Chinese culture
D．the relationship between driving and a person’s development
