The latest reform in testing is the computerized test. Test questions and answer choices are presented on the 55 and students can answer with a tap of the keyboard or a click of the mouse. Before the actual test begins ,there usually is an instruction showing how to use the computer to 56 the questions. Scores are displayed on the screen at the end of the test so that a student has immediate feedback 57 having to return several days later for results.
Some computerized tests are “adaptive”. This means that a test question is selected from a large pool of items based on how the test taker has responded to the 58 question. The first question presented is of medium difficulty. If the test taker answers 59 , the next item will be more
difficult. If he or she answers incorrectly, the next question will be easier. The computer 60 questions by level of difficulty and many other factors, such as sex, race and age references, subject area the question is drawn from, and form of question, before presenting it on the screen. In this way, the questions are “adapted” to find the true skill 61 of the test taker.
Among all the conveniences of computerized testing, there are some 62 . No longer can you have a quick look at the 63 test, answer the easy questions first, and come back later to finish the difficult ones. Test items are presented one at a time, and you must choose an answer in order to move on to the next question. On adaptive tests, once you have confirmed your answer, you cannot go back to it if, later on, you realize that your answer was wrong. 55.A.screen 56.A.put aside

One night, Mrs Riley, an elderly woman, was walking along a dark, London street. She was carrying her handbag in one hand and a plastic carrier bag in the other. There was nobody else in the street except two youths. They were standing in a dark shop doorway. One of them was very tall with fair hair, the other was short and fat with a beard.
The youths waited for a few moments, and then ran quickly and quietly towards Mrs Riley. The tall youth held her from behind while the other youth tried to seize her handbag.
Suddenly, Mrs Riley threw the tall youth over her shoulder. He crashed into the other youth and they both landed on the ground. Without speaking, Mrs Riley struck both of them on the head with her handbag, and walked calmly away.
The two surprised youths were still sitting on the ground when Mrs Riley crossed the street towards a door with a lighted sign above it. Mrs Riley paused, turned round, smiled at the youths and walked into the South West London Judo(柔道) Club.

amazon.com Dear Customers,
I love slipping into a comfortable chair for a long read-as I relax into the chair, I also relax into the author’s words, stories, and ideas. The physical book is so elegant that it disappears into the background, and what remains is the author’s world.
Today, we at Amazon are excited to announce Mindle, a wireless, portable reading device with instant access to more than 90,000 books, magazines, and newspapers.
We’ve been working on Mindle for more than three years. Our top design objective was for Mindle to disappear in your hands-to get out of the way-so you can enjoy your reading. We also wanted to go beyond the physical book. Mindle is wireless, so whether you’re lying in bed or riding a train, you can think of a book, and have it in less than 60 seconds. No computer is needed-you do your reading directly from the device.
We chose the same wireless technology used in advanced mobile phones. But unlike mobile phones, there are no monthly wireless bills, no service or data plans, and no yearly contracts. There is no software to install. We want you to get lost in your reading and not in the technology.
Mindle uses a new kind of display called electronic paper. Sharp and natural with no strong light, reading on Mindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen. Mindle weighs only 10.3 ounces-less than a paperback
-but can carry two hundred books.
Enjoy learning about Mindle and many thanks!
Leff Bezos Founder & CEO

Small discoveries in Indonesia are causing a stir in the science world. Researchers have unearthed(挖掘) tiny bones that they believe belong to an entirely new human species. If that’s true, it will change how we think about
our ancestors.
Clues that the little people may have lived long ago were first revealed last year in the scientific journal Nature. Scientists said that they had found the bones of a three-foot-tall female on the island of Flores, in Indonesia. When they looked more closely, they saw that the nearly complete skeleton(骨骼) belonged to a full-grown adult. Researchers named her Hobbit, after the tiny heroes of the Lord of the Rings books.
Now the team is saying it has unearthed even more pieces of the puzzle, including a jawbone and parts of arms, legs and hands form several individuals, as well as stone tools. They reported their find in Nature this month. “The new evidence makes it very clear that these people are a new species, distinct from modern humans,” Peter Brown, a scientist on the team, said. They named these ancient humans Homo floresiensis.
Brown says that these little people lived as recently as 12,000 years ago. If Homo floresiensis was a different species from modern humans, that would make our family tree bigger than we knew. It means, says Brown, that “until recently, a relative shared the planet with us.”
Many scientists think a new species is unlikely. Some argue that the bones must have belonged to modern humans whose small size was the result of a genetic problem.
Daniel E. Lieberman, a scientist at Harvard University, thinks that the debate over the discovery is healthy. He believes that the questions and arguments raised by critics will help us learn more about these unusual skeletons. “Disagreement is an important part of the scientific process,” Lieberman said. “As far as I’m concerned, the story’s only just begun.” 72.Researchers name the skeleton Hobbit because ________.
A.it is a figure described in the Lord of the Rings B.it resembles
the tiny heroes in a set of books
C.it proves to be a full – grown adult D.it belongs to
ancient human species
73.Small discoveries in Indonesia are important because .
A.they are revealed in the scientific journal Nature B.they are made
by Peter Brown, a famous scientist
C.they are about ancestors of modern humans D.they might provide
new evidence for human study
74.According to Daniel E. Lieberman, .
A.Homo floresiensis doesn’t exist
B.disagreement leads
to further research
C.the investigation hasn’t begun yet
D.our family tree is
bigger than we knew
75.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A.Comparison between Different Peoples B.Arguments over Human
Origin
C.Discovery of a Possible New Human Species D.History of Indonesian
People D
Rail passengers are being forced to pay thousands of pounds more in fares as a result of poor advice from the national telephone helpline and individual stations, a consumer organization reveals today. Research by Which? found that in some cases passengers are being charged almost double the cheapest price because of errors made by staff.
Which? asked 25 questions of both station staff and the National Rail Enquiries (NRES) helpline. Only half of the 50 questions were answered correctly. If customers had followed all the advice given, they would have
been £1,263.60 worse off.
Bad advice was given for the cheapest fare for a single journey between London and Grantham. For a ticket bought on the day of travel, both NRES and a King’s Cross station clerk quoted GNER’s £44.50 fare, ignoring a Hull Trains service which leaves 10 minutes earlier and costs just £20.
Some of the most costly misinformation was given for journeys where season tickets should have been recommended. Passengers making a return journey between Swindon and Penzance twice in a week could buy a ticket from one company for £70 which would cover all the travel. But both NRES and station staff quoted £67 for each journey, making £134. However, the NRES website proved to be a much more reliable source of information. Which? also checked “the earlier you book, the cheaper the ticket” claims by five companies and found this was not always the case. On some services, prices went up and down at random.
Ithiel Mogridge, 52, gave one example of poor advice: “Last Christmas I found my brother a ticket on the thetrainline. com to travel from Blackburn to Yate. While the direct route was £51, this one involved a change in Newport and cost just £21. I emailed the details to him and his partner. They went to Blackburn station, where the clerk insisted the fare was £51.”
Malcolm Coles, editor of which. co. uk, said: “Staff training needs to be improved. In the meantime, we’ve designed a checklist, available at which. co. uk/ railadvice.”
76.According to the passage, “Which?” is a .
A.national telephone helpline B.department under the British Rail C.consumer organization
D.website under the National Rail
Enquiries
77.When the author said that customers “would have been £1,263,60 worse
off”, he was telling us that customers would have .
A.saved £1,263,60 if they had followed the advice B.spent £1,263,60
more than the lowest price
C.used £1,263,60 for the survey of 25 questions D.been cheated of
£1,263,60 from the poor advice
78.The phrase at random in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “ ”.
A.casually
B.purposefully C.exactly
D.inevitably

Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A – F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need. 80. European television had the idea of taking ordinary people and turning them into “stars” by putting them in unusual situations. “Big Brother” (created in Holland) was one of the first. A group of people were locked in
A.Current situation and future of reality shows B.Audience’s reaction to reality TV C.Critics’ relevant comments D.Attractions for producers and participants E.Definition of “watch and dial” show F.Introduction to new reality shows A.train passengers get bad advice on fares
B.rail passengers are ill – treated by station staff
C.booking clerks and the telephone helpline offer reliable information D.rail passengers can get cheaper tickets if they book earlier
a small house with cameras running 24 hours a day. It was called a “watch and dial” show because viewers vote by telephone to decide who should leave or stay.
81. “Big Brother” was probably the first of the new reality shows, bus such a programme has developed. Many have found appeal by having a theme to them, but most are based on the principle of “survival of the fittest” by eliminating participants as the series progresses. So we have the dating shows where winners either pair off or stay true to their partners outside the TV studio. Then there are those that test people’s abilities for specific jobs like running a kitchen, becoming an interior designer or a top model.
82. Critics say these programmes are basically bad television, but people watch them. So why are there so many of them? For the viewer it’s an opportunity to “people watch”. It’s natural to like watching other people. They’re interesting. We can imagine what we would do in that situation. We get to know the characters and see them grow and develop week after week. And of course, television is the perfect place to watch people. Like the theatre or cinema we can look at other people and they can’t look back. But with television, we can watch in the privacy of our own homes. We watch, but we don’t have to admit it to anyone.
83. The TV companies like reality shows because they are cheap to produce and attract younger viewers, which advertisers like. The last “Big Brother” in Britain attracted enormous advertising revenue. They aren’t dependent on “star” actors with enormous salaries. And your actors won’t go on strike. And why do people participate in them? Well, for fame and money of course.
In the past, appearing on television wasn’t for ordinary people. You had to be good at something, like sport, or reading the news, or acting. But not any more. 84. It seems that most shows do well at the beginning but then the viewing figures begin to fall. And it varies from country to country too. For example, one show had an adopted child try to guess the identity of her real father, and another had a family arguing over an inheritance. Both were cancelled after one episode. Perhaps the novelty has worn off. Certainly, reality TV seems to appeal much more to the younger audience. And now there are so many shows around even the young have become more critical. Reality shows will probably survive – it’s just no longer so easy to make a successful one. 第Ⅱ卷(共45分) I.Translation
