It is said that our body movements communicate about 50% of what we really mean while words themselves only express 7%. So, while your mouth is closed, just what is your body saying… Arms. 71 If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. 72 If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you’re unhappy.

Close your eyes and imagine you are living in the next two centuries or more. You’ll be living in a world filled with smart robots, which will be helping you to take care of your children, or your elderly parents in your home. You’ll live much longer thanks to the medicine made by genetic (基因的) science. And mankind may be going farther in space than ever before ––you will be living on the moon or Mars. How should we view the changes that wait for us in the future? Should we be optimistic about the years ahead, or worried about what the future holds? Some scientists and experts are having a discussion about how technology, science and society will develop in the future. “I’m looking forward to the day when more technology will come to my life,” says John Searle, a professor at the University of California Berkeley Philosophy, “because I think further research in such areas as genetics, physics, chemistry and medicine will help us to overcome poverty, improve health, and make life longer.” Hugh Herr, at MIT’s Biomechatronics Group, considers very powerful weapons (武器) as concern (担心) over the future. Another is the growing role of technology in our lives. “Machines taking over what humans do is not a good thing,” Herr says. That is a similar concern shared by Daniela Cerqui, a social and cultural scientist. “I am afraid that the long-term future we are building will have no space left for human beings,” says Cerqui. “The main values of our society are related to information that must progress as quickly as possible, and computers are much better than humans in these tasks.” 60. The first paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. how science will develop in the next two centuries B. how people will live in a modern society C. what life would be like in the future D. what computers will bring to our society 61. What is John Searle’s attitude towards the future of technology? A. Worried. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Disappointed. 62. The underlined word “That” in the last paragraph refers to______. A. the poverty problem in the future B. machines taking over what humans do C. the technology of weapons D. the health problem of humans 63. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The future––full of hope or concern? B. Great changes will take place in the future C. The relationship between technology and humans D. The role of robots and computers in the future
第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） It was getting dark when Lisa was returning from teaching out in a small community. She’d been traveling the same route for over a year and there was seldom traffic on this highway. Lisa remembered back to her previous experiences. In those days she was constantly picking up strangers on the road. Her family became greatly concerned about her safety, but she continued the practice until the day her sister told her that one of her friends had been shot by a hitchhiker (搭便车者). That was when the family heard the promise, “No more hitchhikers, I promise!” When she thought back to these things, she suddenly noticed that a car was parked on the road ahead. Then she saw a man waving. He was in trouble, she thought. But suddenly she remembered the promise. She knew this road well and the chances of another car coming along to help were very little. Now as the man ran toward her car she shook with fear, and didn’t know if he was truly in need. She could not leave him here in this storm. The stranger explained that his car was broken. She knew she had to break the promise. She told him to get in. They drove for an hour into the next city and she took him to a telephone box. She waited until he had made a call. When he reported back to her that a family member would soon be there for him, she wished him well and left. Tears fell on her cheeks as she drove away. It felt as though she had been holding her breath for an hour. “I hope they’ll understand why I had to break my promise.” 56. We can learn from the text that Lisa promised______.

And to everyone’s 50 , I succeeded! The teacher smiled and said, “Well done! I 51 you could do it!” Since then, I have become active in maths as 52 as in other subjects.
