- <问答题>A friend has written to you asking for information about the sports centre in your school, which you know quite well. Study the letter and the advertisement for the sports centre below, on which you have written some notes. Then write back, answering your friend’s questions and saying whether you think the sports centre would be suitable for him/her or not. As I think I mentioned in my last letter, I’d love to spend some time at that new sports centre I come over and stay with you this August. I don’t want to do anything that’s too organized, so no team sports or anything like that, and I’d rather not be surrounded by lots of people all trying to get super-fit or lose lots of kilos as fast as they can. So if you’ve been there, could you let me know whether you think there would be any pleasant, relaxing activities that I would enjoy? Looking forward to hearing from you.Best wishesLee Write your letter in no less than 100 words in an appropriate style. Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use “Li Ming” instead. Now write your letter on the answer sheet.

- <问答题>Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by 5 questions. Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. Questions 1 - 5 are based on the following passage. Alarmed by a 20-year decline in student achievement, American schools are considering major upheavals in the career structure of teachers, school boards around the country are planning to abandon traditional salary schedules and single out outstanding teachers for massive pay rise.The idea is regarded with deep suspicion by the United States’ biggest teachers’ unions, the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers. They say the creation of a cadre of elite teachers will sour professional relationships and encourage teachers to compete instead of cooperate; they also question whether a fair way can be devised to tell which teachers really do perform better than their colleagues. But heightened public anxiety about secondary education appears to have given the master teacher concept unstoppable political momentum. Florida and Tennessee are racing to introduce ambitious statewide master teacher schemes before the end of the year. Less grandiose proposals to pay teachers on the basis of merit instead of seniority have already been implemented in countless school districts. And the Secretary of Education, Mr. Terrel Bell, recently promised substantial incentive grants to states which intend to follow their example. Low pay is believed to be the single most important reason for the flight from teaching. The average salary of a teacher in the United States is just under $19,000, much less than that of an engineer ($34,700) and not much more than that of a secretary($16,500). To make ends meet it is common for teachers to take second jobs in the evening and in their summer holidays, and women, who used to make up the bulk of teacher candidates are turning to better paid professions. The unions insist that the answer to this problem is to increase the basic pay of all teachers, but most states would find that too expensive, they would be better able to afford schemes that confine pay increases to a small number of exceptional teachers. Champions of the idea say it would at least hold out the promise of high pay and status to bright graduates who are confident of their ability to do well in the classroom, but are deterred by the present meager opportunities for promotion. One of the first large-scale tests of this approach will come in Tennessee, where a year of painstaking negotiations has just overcome bitter union opposition to a wide-ranging master teacher scheme. Tennessee promised that they will allocate $300 million as education budget. In return for a chance to earn bigger salaries and faster promotion, teachers will subject themselves to closer scrutiny. The Tennessee plan will make it harder for poor teachers to join the profession. Beginners will have to serve a probationary year before qualifying, and another three apprentice years before receiving tenure. Apprentice teachers who fail to reach a required standard will not be allowed to stay on. Survivors will be designated “career teachers” and given a chance to climb through three career rugs and earn bonuses of up to $7,000. Advancement will not be automatic. The performance of each teacher will be closely assessed by committees of teachers drawn from other districts. Questions: 1．What support is the federal government offering to states that set up a master teacher scheme? 2．What’s the purpose of the master teacher scheme? 3．In the state of Tennessee, how will teachers be assessed? 4．What is the main idea of the text? 5．What can be inferred from the text about the master teacher scheme?

- <问答题>Section C (10 marks) Lisa Tyler was weary after a long, hard day at the pottery factory where she works, but as she approached her home in the English city of Stoke-on-Trent, her heart lightened; soon she would be having a nice cup of tea, putting her feet up and watching Friends, her favourite TV series, But first, she needed to change out of her work clothes and pick up her three-year-old son from his grandmother’s house nearby. As Lisa walked up her garden path, she noticed a light flashing on and off in an upstairs bedroom. A shiver went down her back. . What if it was a burglar? Quietly, she crept round to the back of the house to see if there was any sign of a break-in. Sure enough, a window was open and someone’s coat was hanging on the gatepost! Well, 26-year-old Lisa didn’t fancy coming face to face with a burglar, so she ran to a neighbour’s house and rang the police. As she sat waiting for the police to arrive, Lisa’s curiosity got the better of her and she decided to go back and see what was going on. That’s when she saw a leg coming out of the downstairs front window. It was a man climbing out. Lisa gasped in shock. The burglar war carrying her portable television! At this point, Lisa saw red. She didn’t have many possessions and she’d saved long and hard to buy that set. Besides, nobody was going to stop her watching Friends.“Oh no, you don’t.” she muttered under her breath, as fury swelled inside her. Without even stopping to think, she across the garden and started shouting at the burglar, “Give me my TV—drop it now!” Ignoring her, the man fled across the garden, so Lisa threw herself at him and successfully rugby-tackled him to the ground. The burglar struggled to escape, but Lisa hung on like the best kind of guard dog, despite being punched and kicked. As she looked up, she realized that she recognized the burglar’s face. She was so surprised that she lost her grip and the burglar got away, leaving the TV behind in the garden. By the time the police and her father arrived, Lisa was in tears. “I can’t believe you were so foolish, Lisa,” scolded her father. “You could have been killed.” “I know, but at least he didn’t get my TV.” she replied. Lisa later remembered the name of the burglar, who had been in the same year as her at school. He was later caught and jailed for 15 months after committing a burglary and assault. In May last year, Lisa was given a Certificate of Appreciation by Staffordshire police for her “outstanding courage and public action”. In the future, however, she intends to leave household security to a new member of her family, Chan, who is a real guard dog. Answer the questions in no more than 10 words. 1．What first led Lisa to think there was a burglar in her house? 2．Why didn’t Lisa wait in her neighbour’s house until the police arrived? 3．What does “Lisa saw red (in the 4th paragraph)” most probably mean? 4．What did the burglar do when Lisa shouted at him? 5．How did Lisa help to catch the burglar later?
