In ancient times, man settled near rivers or on river banks and built up large empires. Water is nature’s most valuable gift to man. Man needs water to irrigate his crops, to cook and to wash. In nations all over the world, rivers mean life and wealth. They feed and clothe the nations around them. Water is also a source of energy and power. Man build huge dams across the rivers to control the water for irrigation and get the energy needed to drive generators. The electrical power is then directed to homes, cities, factories and television stations. Man uses water each day. In a small way rivers help to keep man in good health and provide for his amusements. Various forms of water sports keep man strong and healthy. 61. Rivers have been important to man _______.

( D ) Sitting is an art that isn't getting passed along. People these days feel as though they have to be doing something. If they are not working, they are jogging, or playing tennis or golf, or taking courses to improve their minds or bodies---or they are parked in front of the TV. Sitting in front of the TV isn't sitting---it's watching. People used to sit a whole lot. You would walk down the street or drive down the road, and there they would be, out on the doorsteps, sitting. You could go down to the store and sit on the bench out front in the summer or around the fire in the winter. There were sitting benches out in the town square. At the garage, there were straight backed chairs. There among the oilcans and tires and spare parts, you could kick back and sit. Houses used to have sitting rooms, where the grown ups would go after Sunday dinner. Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Aunt Ruby would sit and digest the fried chicken and talk about Aunt Ethel's illness, and how well the minister did today. Outside, the children would play, and the afternoon would pass by in a comfortable haze (氛围). That sort of thing looks like doing nothing. A recharging battery (正充电的电池) doesn't look as if it's doing anything either. Sitting restores your soul. If you want to enjoy a truly full life, don't just do something--sit there.  68. What message does the author try to get through to us?     A. People should make better use of their sitting room.     B. People should spend less time watching TV.     C.

He is coming to Guangzhou, Beijing and Shanghai on November 18-20 as part of his world tour in support of his new CD.     One of the main roles of music has always been to go with dancing. But, today’s dance music is very different from the past. The history of dance music goes back to the 16th century. In the Renaissance（文艺复兴）and Baroque（巴洛克）periods in Europe, rich people were expected to be able to dance at social events. Each type of dance gave rise to its own form so music.     During the 18th and 19th centuries the most popular dances were the Waltz and the Polka（波尔卡舞）.In this period, dances were often written for the concert hall. For example, symphonies（交响乐）would have a waltz movement, and piano pieces were sometimes in waltz or polka.     In the 1970s, dance music moved into new places called discos. The music was faster, had more bass(低音的) and started to become more electric. Disco music began to develop in the US and around Europe .By the 1980s the music became much faster and even more electronic.     In the1990s clubs took over discos. DJs mixed other people’s music .Club dance rhythms（韵律）became a major part of popular music .Club dance music has different forms, including drum and bass, hip-hop , R＆B. It makes use of technology and DJs play a bigger part in spreading the music. 72．Which of the following does not show the difference between today’s dance music and that of the past？     A．Greater variety of forms.        B．More technology is made use of.     C．The music is faster.            D．Today’s music is more professional. 73．Which of the following is correct according to the order of each type becoming popular？        a．Waltz    b．Disco music    c．R＆B     A．a-b-c          B．b-a-c            C．a-c-b          D．b-c-a 74．From the Third paragraph ,we can see that          .     A．dancing cannot be separated from music     B．in the 16th century, people still did not have much social life     C．people’s social needs resulted in the birth of different types of dance music     D．the time of its birth can tell the difference between today’s dance music and that of the past. 75．According to the story , a DJ’s job is mainly to        .     A．develop disco music B．create music for the club     C．put different music forms together D．choose and play music using technology 四、写作（共两节，满分45分） 第一节阅读达（共5小题，每题3分，共15分） The art of living is to know when to let hold fast and to let go.For life is a paradox(自相矛盾的事物).People always say:“A man comes to this world with his hand clenched(握紧),but when he dies,his nahd is open.” Surely we ought to hold fast to life,for it is wondrous,and full of beauties.We know that this is so,but all too often we recognize this truth only in  our backward glance when we remember what was and then suddenly realize that it is no more. A recent experience re-taught me this truth..I was hospitalized following a severe heart attack and had been in intensive care for several days.It was not a pleasant place.One morning,I had to have some tests.The required machines were located in a building at the opposite end of the hospital,so I had to be wheeled across the courtyard on a gurney(盖尼式床).As we emerged from our unit,the sunlight hit hit me.That’s all there was to my experience.Just the_________________________of the sun.And yet how beautiful it was------how warming,how sparking,how brilliant!I looked to see whether anyone else loved the sun’s golden glow,but everyone was hurrying,most with eyes fixed on the ground.Then I remembered how often I do the same,life’s gifts are valuable------but we are too careless of them. Here then is the first pole of life’s paradoxical demands on us:Never too busy for the wonder and the awe of life.Be reverent before each dawning day.Hug each hour.Seize each golden minute. 76.What is the best title of the passage?(Please answer within ten words)   ____________________________________________________________ 77.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?   The machines needed were located in a building at the other end of the hospital.   ____________________________________________________________________ 78.Please fill in the blank in paragraph three with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(Please answer within 10 words)   _____________________________________________________________ 79.What time of life did the author want to return to?(Please answer within 30 words)   _________________________________________________________________   _________________________________________________________________ 80.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.   ____________________________________________________________________   __________________________________________________________________ 第二节: 书面表达(满分30分) 据报道，2008年北京奥运会将选拔约十万志愿者为之服务。请你以“Dos and Don’ts for the 2008 Olympic Volunteers”为题，用英语写一篇短文，讨论志愿者应该做什么，不应该做什么。短文应包括下表中的内容： Dos Don’ts 1. 待人礼貌、友好 1．避免不得体的言行 2．坚守岗位 2．不忘履行自己的职责 3．介绍中国历史和文化 3．不损害祖国的形象 如果你成为志愿者，你还应该做什么，不应该做什么。         （内容由考生自己拟定） 注意：1. 对所给要点，不要简单翻译，要有适当发挥.       2．字数120左右。短文中已写好了的部分，不计入词数.       3．参考词汇：形象—— image Dos and Don’ts for the 2008 Olympic Volunteers It is reported that about 100,000 people will be chosen as volunteers for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.

What should the volunteers do and what should they not do? Firstly, they should be polite and friendly to the athletes and visitors from all over the world, and avoid improper behaviour. Secondly, they should stick to their posts, offering good services, satisfying/ meeting any reasonable needs and being ready to help those in difficulty, and never fail to do their duty. Thirdly, they should introduce the Chinese culture and history to foreigners so that they may know China better and never say or do anything that harms the image of our motherland. If I have the honour to be chosen as a volunteer, besides the above, I will work hard and creatively, but never be lazy. I will follow the law and discipline, but never break them. I will take the opportunity to make friends with the athletes and visitors, and help make the 2008 Olympic Games a great success.
