14．Paul Lucas can often be seen walking around the city of San Francisco．Sometimes people are surprised to see him walking（16）withoutany shoes or socks，（17）butLucas doesn't mind at all．（18）Helikes to walk barefoot，and so do 640 other members of Dirty Sole Society，the club that Lucas（19）started（start） years ago．Lucas'idea for this is to encourage others to live（20）freely（free）---free of shoes．
According to Lucas，the barefoot life has many advantages．（21）Themost important is simply that it feels good．He also says（22）thatwalking barefoot allows you to experience the world directly by touching it with your feet．（23）Inaddition，the feet do not smell so much because they stay dry，（24）walking（make） it hard for bacteria to grow．And，of course，walking barefoot keeps your feet in good shape，so it's actually（25）healthier（healthy） than wearing shoes．

分析 本文敘述了Paul Lucas成立了Dirty Sole Society俱樂部，參加俱樂部的人是都光腳走路，文中給出了他們認為光腳走路的好處．他們認為光腳走路對腳是有好處的．

解答 答案：16．without；考查介詞．有時人們感覺很驚奇看見他不穿鞋在街上走路．根據(jù)walk barefoot光著腳走路，故用 without．
17．but；考查連詞．光腳走路，但是他不介意，故用but．
18．He；考查代詞．他喜歡光腳走路．根據(jù)上文可知這里指Lucas，故用he．
19．started； 考查動詞．Lucas在幾年前開辦的俱樂部．根據(jù)時間狀語years ago 可知應該用一般過去式started．
20．freely；考查副詞．Lucas的想法是鼓勵其他的人自由地生活．這里用副詞freely來修飾動詞live．
21．The；考查冠詞．最重要的是光腳走路感覺很好．因為形容詞最高級的前面應該用定冠詞來修飾，故用the．
22．that；考查連詞．他也說光腳走路允許你用腳直接感受世界．這里是that引導的賓語從句．
23．In； 考查固定短語．另外腳沒有很大的味，因為腳能保持干燥．in addition另外，而且；是固定短語．
24．walking；考查非謂語動詞．另外腳沒有很大的味，因為腳能保持干燥，使腳上的細菌很難生存．這里是非謂語動詞，make與邏輯主語之間是主動關(guān)系，故用making．
25．healthier；考查形容詞．光腳走路也能保持腳的好的腳形，因此比穿著鞋要健康的多．因為后有比較連詞than 可知這里應該用比較級healthier．

點評 語法填空題是考查學生的語言運用能力．解題時，要在理解文章的基礎上，靈活運用語法知識，如詞性，時態(tài)，名詞單復數(shù)，連接詞，代詞，冠詞等判斷空白處應填寫的內(nèi)容．答完后，還要通讀全文，核對所填單詞形式是否正確，是否符合語境．

5．For centuries，in the countries of south and Southeast Asia，the elephant has been an important part of the culture，economy and religion．And nowhere more so than in Thailand．Unlike its African cousin，the Asian elephant is easily domesticated（馴化）．The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the power of royalty to its rulers，and until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background．To the early Western visitors，the  country's romantic name was"Land of the White Elephant"．
Today，however，the story is very different．Out of work and out of land，the Thai elephant   struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it． The elephant has found itself more or less deserted by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a society in  the western part．And while the elephant's problems began many years ago，now it has a very low  national advantage．
How does the national symbol turn into ignored animals？It is a story of worse environment and the changing lives of the Thais themselves．According to Richard Lair，Thailand's expert on  the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray，at the turn of the  last century，there may well have been as many as 100，000 national elephants in the country．
In the north of Thailand alone，it was estimated （估計） that more than 20，000 elephants were employed in transport，1，000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen．     
This was at a time when 90 percent of Thailand was still forest--a habitat that not only supported the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people．Nothing ploughs through thick forest better than lots of sure-footed elephants．
By 1950 the elephant population had dropped，but still to the number of 13，397．However，today there-are probably no more than 3，800，with another l，350 wandering free in the national parks．But now，Thailand's forest covers only 20 percent of the land．This deforestation（采伐森林） is the central point of the elephant's difficult situation，for it has effectively put the animals out of work．This century，as the road network grew，the elephant's role as a beast of Burden decreased．
41．What can we know about African elephants from the passage？B
A．It is easy to domesticate them．
B．It is hard to domesticate them．
C．They are living a better life than Asian elephants．
D．Their fate is quite similar to that of Asian elephants．
42．Thailand was once called"Land of the White Elephant"becauseA
A．white elephant was a national symbol until the 1920s
B．white elephant is rarely seen and thus very special
C．white elephant has helped kings to gain the ruling authority
D．this name was so romantic that it was popular among visitors
43．Why is the Thai elephant"out of work"，according to the author？D
A．Because there are too many elephants but too few jobs．
B．Because the elephants can't do labor work any longer．
C．Because the government pays little attention to the problem．
D．Because the elephants are no longer useful to their owners．
44．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the elephant population at various times？D
A．There were 100，000 domesticated elephants at the turn of the last century．
B．20，000 elephants were employed in transport in Thailand at the turn of the century．
C．By 1950 the elephant population in Thailand has been quite small．
D．Today the elephant population is estimated at 5，150．
45．The passage is most probably fromC
A．a(chǎn) travel magazine                                      
B．a(chǎn) history book
C．a(chǎn) research report

6．Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys？
The answer depends largely （16）on/upon cultural values as well as personal experiences．To the Egyptians，green was a color （17）that/which represented the hope and joy of spring，while for Muslims，it means heaven．Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures．During the Spring Festival in China，children （18）are given（give） money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year．For many nations，blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs．Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect （19）themselves against evils（災禍）．
People's （20）choice（choose） of colors is also influenced by their bodies'reactions toward them．Green is said to be （21）the most restful color．It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally （22）and physically．People （23）working（work） in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches．
Red can cause a person's blood pressure to rise and increase people's appetites（食欲）．Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant．（24）Similarly（similar），many commercial websites will have a red"Buy Now"button because red is a color that easily catches a person's eye．
Blue is another calming color．Unlike red，blue is believed to cause people to lose appetite．So （25）if/whenyou want to eat less，some suggest that eating from blue plates can help．

1．A report from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences'Commission reveals that，due to a job market which disproportionately rewards graduates in STEM （science，technology，engineering，and  mathematics） fields，more and more students are seeking degrees in business and hard-science subjects．
Some institutions have responded by cutting budgets in the arts and humanities and directing those  funds elsewhere．That's the wrong thing to do．The humanities-the study of languages，literature，history，philosophy，religion，ethics，etc．-and the arts are vital to our future．We should be investing more funds，more time and more expertise，not less，into these endeavors．
What detractors（詆毀者） of the"soft"subjects miss is that the arts and humanities provide an essential framework and context for understanding the wider world．Studying the humanities strengthens the ability to communicate and work with others．It allows students to develop broad intellectual and cultural understanding； it nurtures creativity and deepens participation in public discourse and modem democracy．
The commission's report points out that"at the very moment when China is seeking to adopt our model of broad education in the humanities，social sciences and natural sciences as a stimulus to  invention，the United States is instead narrowing our focus and abandoning our sense of what education has been and should continue to be-our sense of what makes America great．"
These are the telling statistics：First，federal funding for helping American students include international training in their education has been cut 41percent in four years．Second，the National  Assessment of Educational Progress test shows that only less than a quarter of eighth-and 12th-grade US students are proficient in reading，writing and civics．
How can we possibly equip the US for its leadership role in an increasingly connected world if we are not adequately teaching students to communicate and helping them understand and encounter diverse perspectives？If we fail to invest in the arts and humanities，our country's future leaders will not have the ability to connect on an emotional level with others．This ability is developed by studying the humanities，and in the global community this skill is not optional-it's essential．
In a word，we must enthusiastically support and fund the study of the arts and humanities．For anyone concerned with how this translates into a sound economy and a sound financial future，simply recall what Steve Jobs told graduates of Standford University in 2005：One of the most influential experiences in his brief time at Reed College was his exposure to the fine art of calligraphy（書法）． It taught him the important lesson of the relationship between discipline and creativity．

58．What can be inferred from the passage？B
A．Business and hard-science subjects are based upon the arts and humanities．
B．At present too much emphasis and investment are put on science in America．
C．More students will learn the arts and humanities instead of science in the USA．
D．China has spent more money in the humanities and social sciences than the USA．
59．The author mentions Steve Jobs in the last paragraph to prove thatB．
A．science has a close relationship with the arts and humanities
B．investment in the and and humanities promotes economic development
C．calligraphy plays a determining role in Steve Jobs'accomplishment
D．Reed College supports and funds the study of the arts and humanities
60．Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage？A
A．Significance of arts and humanities         
B．Key qualities of future leaders
C．Decline of arts and humanities             
D．Rise and fall of hard sciences．
