一、5个短文对话
1 M: You’re going to make a trip to New York, aren’t you?
W: Yes. But I haven’t got the plane ticket yet. I’m thinking of postponing the trip to next month since this is the busiest month for the airline.
Q: What do we know about the woman from this conversation?
2 M: Hello, I’m a senior student. Could you tell me whether this reference room is only for faculty members?
W: No. It’s also open to the postgraduates and undergraduates can come too if they’ve got professors’ written permission.
Q: Can the man study in the reference room?
3 M: This year’s heavy rainfall has caused flooding and made it hard to plant new crops. W: Yes, I guess that’s why fruits and vegetables are so expensive right now. Q: What’s the problem?
4 M: How do you feel on your diet?
W: I feel fine. In fact, I’ve never felt better. Furthermore, some of my old clothes would fit me if I lost 40 pounds.
Q: According to the conversation, which of the following will most likely happen to the woman on diet?
5 M: I’m sorry, Madam. The train is somewhat behind schedule. Take a seat, and I’ll notify you as soon as we know something definite.
W: Thank you. I’ll just sit here and read a magazine in the meantime. Q: What can you conclude about the train from the conversation?

原文：“Neighbor to Neighbor” is a five-month series of neighborhood meetings, sought to get people talking about why Greater Cincinnati is divided by race - and how to bridge the gap. More than 2,100 people from nearly every neighborhood have broken a polite silence to engage in difficult talk on race. They've met in church basements, crowded living rooms and school libraries. They've shed tears over personal stories. They've stumbled through their differences to reflect on what they share.
Personal responsibility topped many neighborhood lists. But as they discovered common ground, neighbors formed other ideas for improving race relations:
School leaders should insist on diversity in the curriculum and teach respect for racial differences. Politicians and public servants should spend more time and money to rebuild neighborhoods and less to create riverfront showpieces.
Community leaders should work to mend police-community relations and create more workplace
equality.
Churches and other community groups should play a greater leadership role.
We have a lot of opinions, but the solution comes down to, 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,'” says Janet Metzelaar, a Loveland small business owner who helped lead 13 Neighbor to Neighbor meetings across the region.
;“If you follow that, it's not just on the street, it's on the job. It's in your homes and in your church. You're always considering how your actions make the person feel - and how what you fail to do make them feel.”
三 判断对错对话
原文：It's important to be a good citizen wherever you may find yourself, by following the rules of that place. The Internet is a \the Internet are called \log on, so that you can be a \might find yourself in while \
Your friend Mike brags that he can break into any computer there is! He figures out how to get into a computer network, and then he can read anybody's email or even send fake email from someone else's account. He says this is really fun, and he wants you to help him get into the computer at school.
What would you do in this situation?
Do you take Mike to talk with a grown-up that you trust who will help to convince him not to do this? Or help Mike get into the computer system, but stop him from doing any damage? Or help Mike get into the computer system and then play “joke” on people by changing their grades?
Breaking into computers is NOT a game: it's a very serious crime. Mike could be arrested if he did not stop. By telling an adult, and preventing Mike from breaking into the school computers, you have probably saved your school a lot of money, which they can use on other things like new sports equipment, or even new computers.
四 短文理解
原文：When you allow your cat to roam freely outside, you not only expose a beloved companion to potential harm, but you also affect the people and animals in your community. At the very least, your cat may dig in your neighbors' flower beds and leave its wastes in their kids' sandboxes. But free-roaming cats also have far more serious effects.
Local governments spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year controlling stray animals. Although most animal control laws were passed to protect citizens from stray dogs, cats are now a major focus of animal care and control agencies, which collectively shelter millions of lost and homeless cats each year and respond to thousands of cat-related complaints.
Cats, who roam, particularly after dark, are likely to come into contact with night creatures that are the primary transmitters of rabies, which is an infectious disease causing madness in dogs, wolves and other animals in the wild. As a result, cats are now the most common domestic transmitters of rabies, with 278 cases reported in the United States in 1999.
Free-roaming cats kill millions of wild animals each year. Well-fed housecats kill wildlife because of their instinct to hunt prey, not because they need the food. Cats are not a part of natural
ecosystems, and their hunting and killing causes unnecessary death to wild animals. This can cause conflicts among neighbors, pitting gardeners and bird lovers against cat owners who allow their charges to roam.
1. Which of the following is not the effect of a free-roaming cat? 2. What are stray animals?
3. Why cats are now a major focus of animal care and control agencies? 4. What is rabies?
5. Which is the best title for this passage?

Like the medical ethic emphasizing that the first responsibility of a physician is “to do no harm,” being a good global neighbor means ending bad neighbor behavior. The warning “to do no harm” applies to the foreign policies of all nations, but it is especially relevant to great powers like the United States that have a global reach and a history of bad neighbor practices.
The Roosevelt administration went a long way toward becoming a good global neighbor. It ended U.S. military interventions and occupations as well as stopped Dollar Diplomacy and Gunboat Diplomacy. At home, it actively sought to get rid of the attitudes of racism, moral superiority, and cultural chauvinism. These attitudes had been cultivated during the previous period of open imperialism.
The basic rules of peaceful coexistence and community are the same, locally and globally. Bad neighbors use greater power and wealth to threat others. They apply a double standard to their behavior and to that of their neighbors, setting themselves apart from their community. Good neighbors do not tell others how to live their lives. Instead, they respect differences and diversity in the neighborhood.
The United States is currently reviving some of its worst bad neighbor practices. It invades and occupies Iraq, renounces membership in the International Criminal Court, involves itself in Venezuela’s internal affairs, supports armed conflict in Colombia, backs fundamentalists in Israel, and reinforces trade and travel barriers toward Cuba. All these are policies of a bad global neighbor.and a history of bad neighbor practices.
