It turns out that I‘m not the only mama who is addicted to the computer.These moms are contributing to a growing global addiction.There‘s a movement among psychiatrists (doctors who specialize in mental diseases) to recognize the Internet addiction as an official mental disorder.And a recent Stanford University national survey found that 14 percent of Internet users find it hard to stay away from it for several days at a time; 9 percent try to hide their ―unnecessary Internet use from their loved ones; 8 percent admit they use the Web as a way to escape problems.
You‘re likely not the kind of addict who doesn‘t bathe and abuses drugs to help her stay up for more online time.You may have noticed, though, that going online has become a necessary part of your life, which, at least, means a box of clothes go unwashed.It may also mean you‘re missing much time with you baby – something you probably do care about. 28.From Paragraph 1, we can conclude that _______.
A.the author was busy taking care of her babies B.the author‘s job had something to do with computers C.the author was not good at taking photos of her babies D.the author looked after her babies while using the computer. 29.The author used to think that the Internet addiction is ________.
A.using the web at midnight C.spending too much time online
B.keeping up with friends online D.being addicted to computer games
30.In medical terms, the Internet addiction is ________.
A.a personal life habit C.an official mental disorder
B.a way to escape problems D.the unnecessary use of the Internet
31.What does the author want to express in the last but one paragraph?
A.Many women still can control their online time. B.The Internet addiction influences housewives‘ lives a lot. C.Going online has become a necessary part of women‘s lives. D.Many people don‘t realize that they are addicted to the Internet.

short
story
writer
Alice
Munro
won
the
Nobel
Prize
for
Literature.Eighty-two-year-old Munro is only the 13th woman to win the 112-year-old prize.
Munro didn‘t publish her first collection of short stories until she was 37 years old, but her
stories have always been well-received.Lots of her stories share similar themes and characters, but each story has its own twists and turns.
Even though she‘s won Canada‘s most famous literary award, the Giller Prize twice, winning the Nobel Prize for Literature is the peak of Munro‘s career.―It brings her incredible recognition, both of her and her career, and of the dedication( 投身,奉献 ) to the short story,‖ said one person.
Along with the well-respected title comes 1.3 million dollars.Munro said everything was ―so surprising and wonderful‖ and that she was ―dazed by all the attention and affection that has been coming my way.‖
Munro knew she was in the list——she was named the second-most likely person to win this year‘s prize, after Haruki Murakami (村上春树)of Japan——but she never thought that she would win.
Munro‘s win also represents the long way Canadian writers have come.―When I began writing there was a very small community of Canadian writers and little attention was paid by the world.Now Canadian writers are read, admired and respected around the globe,‖ Munro said on Thursday.
She is technically not the first Canadian to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, but many like
to think that she is.In 1976 Saul Bellow, who was born in Quebec but moved to Chicago when he was still a child, won the prize.Even though he was born in Canada, he is mostly considered to be an American writer.
―This is a win for us all.Canadians, by our very nature, are not very nationalistic,‖ said
Geoffrey Taylor.―But things like this suddenly make you want to find a flag.‖
She wasn‘t sure if she would keep writing if she won the prize, saying that it would be ―nice
to go out with a bang.But this may change my mind.‖ 32.What is the feature of Munro‘s stories?
A.They have complicated (复杂的)contents. B.They have similar story backgrounds.
C.They have specific themes for children. D.They have the same characters in each book.
33.For Munro, the Nobel Prize is an award for______.
A.her love for Canadian culture C.her special form of writing
B.her devotion to the short story D.her career of editing short stories
34.What can you infer from the sixth paragraph?
A.Canadian writers paid little attention to the prize. B.Canadian writers were respected across the globe. C.Canadian writers have long been ignored. D.Canadians come a long way to win the prize. 35.What does the passage mainly tell us?
A.How Alice Munro wins the Nobel Prize
B.An introduction to the Nobel Prize in Literature C.Alice Munro wins the Nobel Prize in Literature D.A world famous writer, Alice Munro 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

For millions of years, coral reefs(珊瑚礁)have provided homes and food for thousands of different living things.Fish and sea birds share the reef with other creatures.Now these beautiful places are in danger. 36 Scientists have found that more than one-fourth of the earth‘s coral reefs have been ruined so far.Another quarter will disappear in ten years‘ time.Unless things change, all of the remaining reefs may die within your lifetime.
Some people think that coral is stone because of its rough(粗糙的), hard surface.But coral is an animal.Tiny polyps(水螅体)form the coral reefs. 37 These colors come from the algae(海藻)living inside the coral.Billions of coral polyps stick together.New ones grow on the dead ones.This happens year after year.Over time, the coral builds up a reef.The reef rises from the ocean floor until it almost reaches the sea‘s surface.It takes coral 500,000 years to build a huge reef. 38 The coral reefs have been harmed mainly in three ways.The first factor is pollution on land.The pollutants run with rainwater into streams and rivers, which carry the poisons into the ocean. 39 So they will be easily infected with diseases.Another cause is people.People have broken off pieces of coral, which they want to sell or keep as souvenirs.People have dropped
sticks of dynamite(炸药)into the water to catch more fish.The worst problem is the heating up of the oceans.Higher ocean temperatures kill the important food source for the coral—the algae, the tiny greenish-gold water plants that live on coral. 40 The coral turns white and dies.Scientists call this coral bleaching(珊瑚白化).The bleached part of the coral reef cannot recover.
A.They come in many different colors.
B.However, humans have taken less than 100 years to destroy it. C.This has blown up parts of the reefs.
D.When the algae die, the coral loses both its food and its color. E.So are all the sea plants and animals that depend on them. F.Chemicals from the poisons kill reefs or make them weak. G.Many of them might not even last that long! 第二卷 第二部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)

A
Long ago in a small town, there was a place known as the House of 1,000 Mirrors.A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit it.
When he arrived, he bounced(跳) happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house.He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could.To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1,000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as his.He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1,000 great smiles just as warm and friendly.As he left the house, he thought to himself, ―This is a wonderful place.I will come back and visit often.‖
In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house.He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door.When he saw the 1,000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled(咆哮) at them and was horrified to see 1,000 little dogs growling back at him.As he left, he thought to himself, ―This is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again.‖
All the faces in the world are mirrors.What kind of reflections do you see on the faces of the people you meet?
21.Why did the first dog like the house?
A.Because there were 1,000 mirrors in the house.

B
Margaret, married with two small children, has been working for the last seven years as a night cleaner, cleaning offices in a big building.
She got trained as a nurse, but had to give it up when her elder child became seriously ill.―I would have liked to go back to it , but the shifts(工作班次)are all wrong for me, as I have to be home to get the children up and off to school.‖
So she works as a cleaner instead, from 9 p.m.till 6 a.m.five nights a week for just £ 90, before tax and insurance.―It‘s better than it was last year, but I still think that people who work ?unsocial hours‘ should get a bit extra.‖
The hours she‘s chosen to work mean that she sees plenty of the children, but very little of her husband.However, she doesn‘t think that puts any pressure on their relationship.
Her work isn‘t physically very hard, but it‘s not exactly pleasant, either.―I do get angry with people who leave their offices like a place for raising pigs.If they realized people like me have to do it, perhaps they‘d be a bit more careful.‖
The fact that she‘s working all night doesn‘t worry Margaret at all.Unlike some dark buildings at night, the building where she works is fully lit, and the women work in groups of three.―Since I‘ve got to be here, I try to enjoy myself-and I usually do, together with the other girls.We all have a good laugh, so the time never drags.‖
Another challenge Margaret has to face is the reaction of other people when she tells them
B.A collection of fable(寓言) D.An advertisement
what she does for a living.―They think you‘re a cleaner because you don‘t know how to read and write,‖ said Margaret.―I used to think what my parents would say if they knew what I‘d been doing, but I don‘t think that way any more.I don‘t dislike the work though I can‘t say I‘m mad about it.‖
24.Margaret quit her job as a nurse because ______ .
A.she wanted to earn more money to support her family B.she had suffered a lot of mental pressure
C.she needed the right time to look after her children D.she felt tired of taking care of patients
25.Margaret gets angry with people who work in the office because ______ .
A.they never clean their offices
B.they look down upon cleaners
C.they never do their work carefully D.they always make a mess in their offices 26.When at work, Margaret feels _____.
A.light-hearted because of her fellow workers B.happy because the building is fully lit C.tired because of the heavy workload D.bored because time passes slowly
27.The underlined part in the last paragraph implies that Margaret‘s parents would _____ .
A.help care for her children
B.regret what they had said D.feel disappointed with her
C.show sympathy for her

I was appreciating my family photos on my computer, admiring my two beautiful babies
when I found a disturbing scene: my laptop was in almost all the pictures.There was my daughter, 8 months old, playing at my feet while I was typing on the couch.There was my son, with a big transformer, on my left arms.
I‘d heard about the Internet addiction before, but I always thought it was something only limited to playing too much World of Warcraft (a computer game) day and night.Now, it seemed my Internet-habit is slowly but surely crossing the line.Sometimes I find myself up at midnight, surfing the Web while my family are sleeping.I read news, keep up with friends and write my blog … just for something to do.

―I wanted to see for myself what happened,‖ said Terry.―I couldn‘t imagine 62 it is like to lose your home and everything that you know and the 63 (power ) effect the hurricane had on those people.I wanted to do something and to understand their feeling of helplessness.‖ The group headed into Brooklyn‘s Red Hook district, which was hit by the hurricane.There they net people from other parts of the country, 64 had also volunteered to help.Together, those volunteers and the NECC students 65 (work) to clear rubbish out of a three-story building.They put on protective suits and gloves 66 they entered the building.
Inside the building, the students saw nothing but broken walls and doors and pieces of the
