9.閱讀下面的短文并用英語回答問題,然后將答案寫到答題卡相應的位置上(請注意問題后的字數(shù)要求).
[1]Nowadays the cost of a new car has fallen in real terms so that it is cheaper than ever to own one,and better road conditions have also attracted more drivers.The result is overcrowding on the road system,which is one of the problems the local governments are faced with.
[2]When people travel to other towns,the problem might be relieved by getting them to park outside the town.Buses could be provided to take them into the centre.These Park and Ride projects are increasingly popular in the UK.At Southerton,for example,a council-funded project led to a 15% drop in city centre traffic over five months.
[3]What the council found,though,was that the project proved somewhat unpopular with shop owners in the area outside the centre.Many of their shops relied on passing car drivers for some of their trade.As the number of people driving past dropped,so did their incomes.
[4]Making car driving expensive is another way ofencouraging people to use public transport more
encouraging people to use their cars less
relieving the problem (of overcrowding).Road taxes tend to mean that people use their cars less.Fining drivers who are in areas where cars have been banned can also tend to encourage them to leave their cars behind.
[5]However,one thing has to be got right for any solution to succeed.If we expect people to give up the habit of driving,we must give them an alternative they can rely on.Constant delays,unannounced changes to the timetable and sudden cancellations all discourage people from using public transport.People will only see it as a real choice if the buses and trains are on time.

66.What causes overcrowding on the road system according to Paragraph 1?(no more than 12words)The reduced/lowered cost of a new car and better road conditions.
67.What should people do when traveling to other towns according to the Park and Ride projects?(no more than 10words)They should park outside the town,and take the bus to the centre.
68.Why were some shop owners unhappy about the project?(no more than 10words)Their incomes dropped because fewer people drove past.
69.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4.( no more than 8words)encouraging people to use public transport more
encouraging people to use their cars less
relieving the problem (of overcrowding)
70.Why are people unwilling to use public transport according to Paragraph 5?(no more than 8words)Because public transport is not reliable/satisfactory..

8.根據短文內容,從下框的A-F選項中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項. 選項中有一項為多余選項.
A.Adults keep pets with their children.
B.Pet-keeping has a very long history.
C.Pet-keeping may do harm to animals.
D.People keeps pets for their aesthetic need.
E.Caged pets become increasingly popular.
F.Pet-keeping is helpful for children's growth.
61.BPet-keeping is a time-honored tradition.One of the reasons for people to raise dogs or cows was usefulness.While people in the past hunted animals and kept them in their backyards,the civilsed man today is less cruel towards them and is less exploitative(利用的).
62.DWe keep animals as pets because they are attractive.We all have the urge to possess something that has aesthetic(審美的)value,and this is why we treasure paintings or fine furniture.Keeping pets is one form of this urge.A Siamese cat in the house can be a decorative object.Pets are playful animals and they amuse us.A little rabbit amuses us by its playful and lively runs.
63.FMany parents find it helpful to have pets in the house for their children.Having pets is an excellent way of developing in children the love of animals and responsibility.Children get the opportunity to take on full responsibility for another creature's life.It will be an educational experience for a child to watch the natural life cycle of an animal.There are psychological benefits for children.Pets are welcome friends for children who are lonely.Pets are excellent companions.Keeping pets means giving love and being loved.We find comfort in giving care and receiving care in return.We get pleasure from their appearance and their behavior.
64.EAs more people move into apartments,there are limitations on keeping of animals like dogs and monkeys.Therefore,caged animals have increased in popularity.Birds fall into this group.We keep them for their beautiful songs and feathers.Fish-keeping is a widespread hobby and the keeper can observe their behavior in the glass tank and study its entire life cycle.The cat is a fine house pet and it fits neatly into human habitation(居住地) without requiring its own cage.They are wonderful hunters,if there are rats around.
65.CPets satisfy man's desire to care for a bit of nature.The pet owner has the responsibility for supplying those needs that nature provides.Pets are amusing and entertaining,but we are in a way doing animals harm by making them live in a human environment.Are we not enslaving(奴役)them?

3.A study of more than five million books,both fiction and non-fiction,has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time.The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer,a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books,to search for more than 600particular words identified as representing anger,dislike,fear,joy,sadness and surprise.
They found that almost all of the categories (類別) showed a drop in these"mood words"over time.Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage.
"It is a steady and continuous decrease,"said Dr Alberto Acerbi.He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature,in a crowded media landscape."One thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other media.Maybe these media-movies,radio,drama-had more emotional content than books."
Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend,the research,published in the journal PLOS One,found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour:the ratio (比率) between the two varied greatly,apparently mirroring historical events.
During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash.But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War.Nevertheless,the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trends.In the paper,they even argue that the reverse could be true.
"It has been suggested,for example,that it was the suppression (壓抑) of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing‘filled with romance and sex'…perhaps,"they conclude,"songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body."
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
81.A study of more than five million books indicated a decline in"mood words"over time exceptin the category of fear.
82.According to Dr Alberto Acerbi,one reason for the drop of"mood words"in books may be thatthe literary position has changed in a crowded media landscape/other media-movies,radio,drama-
had more emotional content.
83.What were the two periods when the joy-to-sadness ratio was at its highest?During the roaring Twenties and before the recent financial crash.
84.While the researchers found some changes in the use of"mood words"in books,they were
not sure thattheir research result reflected wider social trends/songs and books reflected the real population.

A.Healthy way of life giving way to overuse of medicine
B.Different findings as to taking additional vitamin
C.EU's response to overuse of health products
D.Worrying increase in multivitamin advertising
E.EU directive for the benefit of individuals
F.EU directive against prediction in novels
76.C.
The use of health supplements such as multivitamin tablets has increased greatly in the western world.People take these supplements because advertising suggests that they prevent a range of medical conditions from developing.However,there is concern that people are consuming worryingly high doses of these supplements and the European Union (EU) has issued a directive that will ban the sale of a wide range of them.This EU directive should be supported.
77.B
Research suggests that people who take Vitamin C supplements of over 5000milligrams a day are more likely to develop cancer.This shows how much damage these health supplements do to people's health.A spokesman for the health supplement industry has argued that other research shows that Vitamin C supplements help prevent heart disease,but we can dismiss this evidence as it is from a biased source.
78.F
Science fiction of the 1960s and 1970s predicted that pills would replace meals as the way in which people would get the fuel they needed.This,it was argued,would mean a more efficient use of time as people wouldn't have to waste it preparing or eating meals.The EU directive would help prevent this nightmare of pills replacing food becoming a reality.
79.A
Peop0le already take too many pills instead of adopting a healthier lifestyle.For example,the consumption of painkillers in Britain in 1998was 21tablets per year for every man,woman and child in the country.People do not need all these pills.
80.E
Some might argue that the EU directive denies people's right to freedom of choice.However,there are many legal examples for such intervention when it is in the individual's best interests.We now make people wear seatbelts rather than allowing them to choose to do so.Opposing the EU directive would mean beneficial measures like this would be threatened.Section D.

    We have not seen you for a while now,so I thought we might check in.Did you fall off the edge of the Earth?Your mother worries,you know,and I'm just curious.Well,I am more than curious.I feel abandoned.
Apparently,you've abandoned us for your career.
I can understand that,because you've always had a wonderful work ethic.
Look,obviously your long absence has confused us.As we go about our daily routines,your mother and I are distracted-both by your absence and our pride in your career.The other day,I entered my work password into the microwave,then stood there cursing(詛咒) it for not working.And I was so off my game(狀態(tài)差) that I actually used that juicy jam your mother insisted on buying in an effort to drive me from the house.
Listen,a lot has happened since you've been away.
We have two more children-a princess,23,a boy,now 12.
Yesterday I bought a very clean 2001 Camera car from an older woman.Your mother is not happy about this.She says it is the kind of muscle car driven by ex-convicts(有犯罪前科的人) when they examine your house at 2 am.
In response,I tell her it was the car of my dreams (when I was 18).
So that's where your long absence has left us.Your long absence is not so bad,though we miss your roaring laughter…the way your cheeks flush(暈紅) when you eat Thai food.How you always march too hard into the house,like a Scotsman stepping on snakes.
Each evening,your mother now waits by the window the way she did when you used to step off the bus in first grade,your hair full of rubber bands.
Bet that drove you crazy even then,her running out on the porch like you'd just returned from a mouth-long journey from the moon.
Look,parents are not easy people.
But should the urge ever hit you,feel free to stop by some time.Our house is your house.Our hearts are yours too.
And your mother is still waiting by the window.
Love,
Dad
