Travel in most of Europe is easy. An agreement between the 15 European Union countries in 1995 means that citizens from most European countries can travel across borders without needing a visa.
Each of the 12 countries that has 36 its own currency(货币) to accept the euro has its own 37 . So how have these countries been able to 38 ? And how has each country prepared for the birth of this new currency? Firstly, many people in Europe, 39 in west Europe, speak English. The European Convention on Human Rights says that all people have a 40 to learn and use their traditional language.
But at the European Central Bank in Frankfurt, Germany, the official language for all 41 is English. And every European country requires students to study English for many years at 42 . Other languages may be offered, too. But English is a 43 .
" If I meet someone, I try Spanish. Then I try 44 . And if it's not 45 , I say "Hello". That' s the signal, and we communicate no matter what country we come from." Said Maria Ortega, a ski instructor in the Pyrenees, 46 French and Spanish are mainly used.
Each country has its own 47 culture. Though the French may be famous for their 1,000 types of cheese and the Greeks are known to 48 olive oil on everything, most people in Europe like 49 strong coffee on their breakfast table. Another drink is held 50 throughout the continent. Europe's vineyards(葡萄园) may be famous, but the real drink of Europe is 51 . Europeans consume tons of it.
Football, of course, also helps to 52 all of Europe. Many fans are obsessed (着迷) with 53 and with international stars. David Beckham, of England' s Manchester United, is a hero to Europeans in the same 54 that Michael Jordan is to 55 .

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made; your future begins here.
However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find of use about life on campus:
•Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university. Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.
•If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day timer a computer data book). get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.
•Don’t miss the guidelines. The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student’s handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can / can’t you do in your student residence（住处）? Who has the right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?
•Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this — you are paying thousands of dollars for your course. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.
•Build your identity. This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do. Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas. Do not be afraid of the beyond. This is learning to make good choices.

The government of Norway is planning to build an unusual storage center on an island in the Arctic Ocean. The place would be large enough to hold about two million seeds. The goal is to present all crops known to scientists. The British magazine New Scientist published details of the plan last month. The structure will be designed to protect the world’s food supply against nuclear war, climate change and other possible threats. It will be built in a mountain on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen. The mountain is less than one thousand kilometers from the North Pole, the northernmost position on earth.
An international group called the Global Crop Diversity Trust is working on the project. The director of the group, Cary Fowler, spoke to New Scientist. He said the project would let the world rebuild agriculture if, in his word, “the worst came to the worst”. Norway is expected to start work next year. The project is expected to cost three million dollars. Workers will drill deep in the side of a sandstone mountain. Temperatures in the area never rise above 0ºC. The seeds will be protected behind concrete walls a meter thick and high-security door.
The magazine report says the collection will represent the products of ten thousand years of farming. Most of the seeds at first will come from collections at seed banks in Africa, Asia and Latin America. To last a long time, seeds need to be kept in very low temperatures. Workers will not be present al the time. But they plan to replace the air inside the storage space each winter. Winter temperatures on the island are about eighteen degrees below 0ºC. The cold weather would protect the seeds even if the air could not be replaced.
Mr. Fowler says the proposed structure will be the world’s most secure gene bank. He says the plant seeds would only be used when all other seeds are gone for some reason. Norway first proposed the idea in the 1980s. But security concerns delayed the plan. At that time, the Soviet Union was meeting in Rome of the Food and Agriculture Organization.
60．The project is meant to ______.
A．increase the world’s food output in the future
B．carry out some scientific experiments on plant genes
C．protect crop seeds from dying out in case of possible disasters
D．build an exhibition centre of the world’s plant seeds
61．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the above passage?
A．The government of Norway will perform the project alone.
B．Seeds to be collected there were produced ten thousands years ago.
C．Spitsbergen is chosen because it is free of the threat unclear war forever.
D．Temperature is a major consideration when choosing the storage place.
62．We can infer from the text that _______.
A．People will get newly-developed seeds from the center every year.
B．The storage center will greatly promote world agriculture
C．Norway had meant to build the storage centre about 20 years before.
D．There haven’t been any seed storage centres in the world before.
63．What is probably the best title of the passage?
A．The Best Place to Store Seeds
B．Noah’s Ark（诺亚方舟）of Plant Seeds in Plan
C．Concerns of World Food Supply
D．A New Way to Feed the World
