about people being"color﹣blind"but very few of us are．Even those who describe themselves as color﹣blind are normally just color lack．A strongly color﹣blind person will still be able to tell 20different colors，compared to the 100or so that normal﹣sighted people see．Pingelap，a tiny island in the Pacific，is a beautiful spot but one that has a genetic trouble．It is known as Color Blind Island because so many people who live on this remote island can only see in black and white．who's a fisherman，also struggles in full sunlight because all he sees is a painful burnt﹣out image．"I find it difficult to go outside in the sun，"he says，"because when it's sunny I cannot see to do my work．"But if being truly color﹣blind is rare，why is it that around 10% of the population of Pingelap lire in a totally black and white world？Well，we know that in 1780the population of Pingelap was all but wiped out by a tsunami．As few as 20people survived，one of whom was the king．It's believed he had a

that the type of emotional support that a child receives during the first three and a half years has an effect on education，social life and romantic relationships even 20or 30years later．Babies raised in supportive and caring home environments tended to do better on tests later on，and they were more likely to get higher degrees as adults．They were also more likely to get along with their classmates and feel satisfied in their romantic relationships．"It seems like，at least in these early years，the parents'role is to communicate with the children and let them know，‘I'm here for you when you're upset，when you need me．And when you don't need me，I'm your cheerleader，'"says Lee Raby，a psychologist and researcher at the University of Delaware who led the study．Raby used data collected from 243people who participated in the Minnesota Longitudinal Study of Risk．All the participants were followed from birth until they turned 32．"Researchers went into these kids'home at times．Other times，they brought the children and their parents to the university and observed how they communicated with each other，"says Raby．Of course，parental behavior in the early years is just one of many influences，and it's not necessarily causing the benefits seen in the study．While summarizing the results，the researchers accounted for theFinally，they found that about 10percent of someone's academic achievement was connected with the quality of their home life at three．Later experiences，genetic factors and even luck explain the other 90percent．8．The text is especially helpful for those who care about ．A．individual experiencesB．child developmentC．human relationsD．educational background9．What can we learn about people who have had bad childhood experiences from the text？A．They don't remember their younger days at all when growing up．B．They long for emotional support to do better at school．C．They can't recover from separating from their parents．D．They are still affected by their earliest

It can't be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells (细胞) in important organs (器官). But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the试卷第2页，共10页few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in an unusual way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated(放射治疗) and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.1、According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in ________. A ．nuclear mystery B ．radiation detection C ．radiation level D ．nuclear radiation2、Radiation can lead to serious results even at the lowest level ________. A ．when it kills few cells B ．if it damages few cellsC ．though the damaged cells can repair themselvesD ．unless the damaged cells can reproduce themselves 3、Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can ________.A ．kill large numbers of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediatelyB ．damage cells which may grow into cancer years laterC ．affect the healthy growth of our younger generationD ．lead to all of the above results4、Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?A ．The importance of protection from radiation cannot be overemphasized (过分强调).B ．The mystery about radiation remains unsolved.C ．Cancer is mainly caused by radiation.D ．Radiation can hurt those who do not know about its danger.In some ways, the United States has made some progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire.But even with such successes, the United States still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference(无所谓) of a country that just will not take fires seriously enough.American fire departments are some of the world's fastest and best-equipped. They have to be. The United States has twice Japan's population, and 40 times as many fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. And American fire-safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in large numbers in fires but who, against popular beliefs, start very few of them.Experts say the error is an opinion that fires are not really anyone's fault. That is not so in other countries, where both public education and the law treat fires as either a personal failing or a crime. Japan has many wood houses; of the 48 fires in world history that burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Punishment for causing a big fire can be as severe as life imprisonment.In the United States, most education dollars are spent in elementary schools. But, the lessons are aimed at too limited a number of people; just 9 percent of all fire deaths are caused by children playing with matches.The United States continues to depend more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building laws now require home sprinklers (喷水装置). New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.5、The reason why so many Americans die in fires is that _____.A．they took no interest in new technologyB．they did not pay great attention to preventing firesC．they showed indifference to fighting firesD．they did not spend enough money on fire equipment6、It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A．fire safety lessons should not be aimed only at American childrenB．American children have not received enough education of fire safety lessonsC．Japan is better equipped with fire equipment than the United StatesD．America's large population leads to more fires7、Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A．There has been no great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that leads to high death rate.B．There have been several great fires in the USA in recent 40 years that lead to high death rate.试卷第4页，共10页C ．There has been only one great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that led to high death rate.D ．The fire in Kentucky in 1977 made only a few people killed.You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead ！Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls too.8、Stuntmen earn their living by ______. A ．playing their dirty tricks B ．selling their special skills C ．jumping out of high windows D ．jumping from fast moving trains9、When a stuntman falls from a high building, ______. A ．he needs little protection B ．he will be covered with a mattress C ．his life is endangeredD．his safety is generally all right10、Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance? A．Strength. B．Exactness. C．Speed. D．Carefulness.11、What can be inferred from the author' s example of the Norwegian stuntman? A．Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman.B．The percentage of serious accidents is high.C．Parachutes must be of good quality.D．The cliff is too high.Hank Viscardi was born without legs. He had not legs but stumps(残肢) that could be fitted with a kind of special boots. People stared at him with cruel interest. Children laughed at him and called him ‗Ape Man‘ (猿人) because his arms practically dragged on the ground.Hank went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve. After graduating from school, he worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices. During all this busy life, he had been moving around on his stumps. But one day the doctor told him even the stumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon have to use a wheel chair.Hank felt himself got cold all over. However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs(假腿). Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror. For the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be—a full five feet eight inches tall. By this time he was already 26 years old.Hank had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again. There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching. He went out on the street. He climbed stairs and learned to dance. He built a boat and learned to sail it.When World War II came, he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job. He took the regular training. He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers. Few knew that he was legless. This was the true story of Hank Viscardi, a man without legs.12、Children laughed at Hank and called him ‗Ape Man‘ because ______.A．he didn‘t talk to themB．he kept away from them试卷第6页，共10页C ．his arms touched the ground when he movedD ．he couldn‘t use his arms13、It can be inferred from the story that five feet eight inches tall is ______. A ．an average height for a fully grown person B ．too tall for an average person C ．too short for an average person D ．none of the above14、The sentence ―he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job‖ implies that the Red Cross _____.A ．was only glad to give him a jobB ．gave him a job because he was a good soldierC ．gave him a job after he talked to someone whom he knew in the organizationD ．was not willing to give him a job at first15、When Hank marched and drilled along with the other soldiers, he ______. A ．did everything the other soldiers did B ．did most of the things the other soldiers did C ．did some of the things the other soldiers did D ．took some special training二、完形填空（题型注释）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C 和D ）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

75languages，including Spanish，Chinese，Arabic，Indian，and Russian．It also includes up﹣to﹣dateencyclopedias（百科全书），dictionaries，and spell checkers．Babylon is a long way from early translation software that would，more often than not，make an unreadable text with grammar errors that was better suited for making laughs than comprehension．Babylon's ability to understand and translate is perfect．In fact，businesses are adopting Babylon as the standard when it comes to translating commercial communications and other important documents．Babylon is also a great tool for people who are learning another language．Use it anytime you come across a word or passage you don't understand．What users enjoy most is the program's ability to open up a different world to them．Whether it'ssurfing a news

following is more likely to use Babylon？A．Students learning their languages．B．A man working as a secretary～C．A company doing international trades．D．People who often chat on line．43．（6分）According to many recent surveys，there are fewer and fewer students reading newspapers from middle school to college，which worries both parents and teachers a lot．In my opinion，several reasons result in this phenomenon．The most significant reason is that the rise of many other information Media，for example，internet，mobile phone．TV and so on．In the past we only could read newspapers to know what happened around us，while now we only need to turn on the TV，or open our computers，which is more convenient．In addition，computer and other media provide us with more newly news and more specific details，which we can get easily and without payment．There is also an advantage that the newmedia have while newspapers don't﹣﹣﹣﹣a large mount*of pictures，which make the information or news more lively．Therefore，more and more students tend to surf the internet or watch TV instead of reading newspapers．Another reason that few students read newspapers is that they have little time to do such things．We all know that nowadays students，especially middle school and high school students are buried in the books almost every day to get good grades．Even in weekends，they are sent to heterogeneous cram school by their parents to become superior in school．Thus there is little free time for them to do other things，not to mention reading newspapers．The students'indifference to the current affairs also enables few newspaper readers．The 90s，most of today's students，always pay more attention to fashion and only care for themselves．Lacking a sense of collectivism and nationalism，the majority of the 90s have little interest in current affairs，which are the basic content of most newspapers，so that there are fewer and fewer students reading newspapers．Different outside and inside reasons have contributed to the few newspaper readers among students．Therefore，teachers should encourage their students to form'the habit of reading newspapers regularly and free the students from their heavy study burden so that they can afford to broaden their horizon through newspapers，which is beneficial for their future development．43．According to Paragraph 2，few students read newspapers becauseA reading newspapers isn't my good for them to get good gradesB．they are more interested in fashion than current affairsC．it's cheaper and easier to get information from the Internet or TVD．they can only know what is happening via the Internet or on TV44．It can be inferred from the passage that．A．it's better for students to gain information via the Internet than other media B．high school students are too busy with their study nowC．more and more students are addicted to the Internet nowD．more students will fall in love with newspapers45．What does the author mostly want to tell us in the passage？A．There are many advantages of reading newspapers．B．There are reasons why few students read newspapers．C．The advantages 0f surfing the Internet are obvious．D．It's very important to read newspapers．第三部分：书面表达（共35分）46．（35分）最近，校园安全事故频发，请你提示就"校园易发生的安全问题"和"如何保障校园安全"的话题写一篇短文，内容要点如下：1．校园易发的安全问题（至少2点）．2．防护措施：（至少3点）注意：词数120左右，文章开头已写好，不计入总数．．2015-2016学年四川省某重点高中高二（下）期末英语试卷参考答案第一部分：英语语言知识运用（共二节，满分15分）第一节：单项选择（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）请认真阅读下面各题，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．1．C；2．A；3．A；4．D；5．B；6．A；7．C；8．A；9．C；10．B；11．A；12．C；13．B；14．C；15．A；第二节完形填空（30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．16．B；A；C；A；D；C；B；D；B；D；B；A；A；C；B；D；A；C；C；D；第二部分阅读理解（共3小题；每小题6分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．36．C；D；B；39．B；D；C；C；43．C；B；B；第三部分：书面表达（共35分）46．；。

Giambra, an expert in psychology (心理学) .“Daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldn’t get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day. You can’t possibly do all your thinking with a consciousness (有意识). Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming then may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states of mind have silent dialogues. "Early psychology experts paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980,s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book DAYDREAMING. Klinger says, “We know now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures. Daydreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life.”Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams,which may be hard to understand. It’s easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in our life and find out a possible way of dealing with them.Daydreams cannot be predicted (预测). They move off in unexpected directions which may be creative and full of ideas. For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were and are a main source of creative energy.46. What's the writer’s opinion of daydreaming?A. He agrees with the early experts in psychology. .B. He is for L. Giambra and Eric Klinger.C. He doesn’t prefer either side.D. He hasn’t formed his own idea yet47. Which of the following statements is true?A. Daydreaming is less harmful than sleep dreaming.B. L. Giambra’s opinion of daydreaming is opposite to Eric Klinger’s.C. Early experts firmly stuck to their own opnion on daydreaming.D. Daydreams can come very suddenly and unexpectedly48. Which of the following can lead to daydreams according to the text?A. Absence of attentionB. Illness in mind.C. Lack of sleep at nightD. None of the above.49. After reading the passage we can conclude _______.A. daydreaming is neither harmful nor useful to daydreamerB. daydreams are not the same as, but similar to sleep dreamsC. daydreaming is the result of silent dialogues between conscious and unconsciousstates of mindD. daydreams are of great help to us in solving problemsBIt was 3: 21 a. m. when nine-year-old Glenn Kreamer awoke to the smell of burning. Except for the crackling (爆裂声) of flames somewhere below there was not a sound in the two-storied house at Baldwin, Long Island.With his father away on night duty at a local factory, Glenn was worried about the safety of his mother, his sister Karen, 14 and his 12-year-old brother Todd. He ran downstairs through the smoke-filled house to push and pull at Karen and Todd until they sat up. Then he helped each on through the house to the safety of the garden. There, his sister and brother, taking short and quick breaths and coughing, collapsed （瘫倒）on the lawn. The nine-year-old raced back into the house and upstairs to his mother’s room. He found it impossible to wake her up. Mrs. Kreamer, a victim（受害者）of the smoke, was unconscious, and there was nobody to help Glenn carry her to the garden. But the boy remained calm and, as a fireman said later, "acted with all the self-control of a trained adult.”On the bedroom telephone, luckily still working, Glenn called his father and leaving Mr. Kreamer to telephone the fire brigade and ambulance service, he got on with the task of saving his mother. First he filled a bucket with water from the bathroom and threw water over his mother and her bed. Then, with a wet cloth around his head he went back to the garden. He could hear the fire engine coming up, but how would the firemen find his mother in the smoke-filled house where flames had almost swallowed up the ground floor?Grasping（抓）firmly a ball of string from the garage. Glenn raced back into the house and dashed upstairs to his mother's room. Tying one end of the string to her hand he ran back, laying out the string as he went, through the hall and back out into the garden. Minutes later he was telling fire chief, John Coughlan: “The string will lead you to mother.”Mrs. Kreamer was carried to safety as the flames were breakingthrough her bedroom floor.50. Why did Glenn run downstairs first?A. He wanted to find out what was happening.B. He was worried about his mother's safety.C. He wanted to save his sister and brother.D. He went to see if his father had come back.51. How did Glenn help the firemen to save his mother?A. By throwing water all over her and her bed.B. By throwing water all over her and her bed.C. By pushing and pulling at herD. By tying a string to her hand.52. What did Glenn do to protect himself?A. he put a wet cloth around his neckB. he threw water all over himselfC. he hid himself in the bathroomD. He rushed out to the lawn53. Glean saved his family because ________A. his father taught him to do so on the phoneB. he had learned something about first aidC. he had dealt with the emergency calmly and wiselyD. he had followed his mother’s instructionCThere are three separate sources（源泉）of danger in supplying energy by nuclear power.First, the radioactive material must travel from its place of production to the power station. Although the power stations themselves are strongly built, the containers used for the transport of the materials are not, Normally, only two methods of transport are in use, namely road or rail, Unfortunately both of these may have heavily populated areas.Second, there is the problem of waste. All nuclear power stations produce wastes that in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years. It is impossible to make these wastes non-radioactive, and they must be stored in one of he inconvenientways that scientists have invented, For example, they may be buried under the ground, or dropped into deserted mines, or sunk in the sea. However, these methods do not solve the problem，since an earthquake could easily break the containers.Third, there may occur the danger of a leak(漏) or an explosion at the power station. As with the other two dangers, this is not very likely, so it does not provide a serious objection to the nuclear program. However, it can happen. Separately, these three types of dangers are not a great cause for worry. Taken together, though, the probability of disaster (灾难) is extremely high.54. Which of the following is FALSE?A. It is possible that a leak or an explosion occur at a power stationB. It is unusual for radioactive materials to be transported across land.C. The containers are likely to be broken by an earthquake.D. Nuclear wastes remain dangerous in most cases for many years.55. The author thinks that the ways to store nuclear wastes are.A. easyB. impossibleC. reasonableD. ineffective56. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. The power station is a safe place.B. The dangers of nuclear energy can be prevented.C. The general public are strongly against the nuclear program.D. By itself, none of the three dangers is very likely to cause much worry.57. What is this passage about?A. Uses of nuclear powerB. Dangers from nuclear power.C. Public anger at nuclear power.D. Accidents caused by nuclear power.IV 短文改错Jenny moved quietly across the crowd room and 58_____sat down at a corner. She studied her hands for 59_____A moment and looked down.

AWhen I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “S on, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish.” I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer.Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don' t have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hurts their eyes…The more I und erstood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, " We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didn't completely make sense. My dad never once sa id, "If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.1.Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A. He couldn’t influence a fish as his father did.B. He could not catch a fish.C. His father did not teach him fishing.D. His father was not patient with him.2.According to the author, fish are most likely to be found .A. in shallow water under waterside treesB. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlightD. in deep water on sunny days3.This passage most likely comes from .A. a fishing guideB. a millionaire’s biographyC. a novel on childhoodD. a popular sales bookBGoing green seems to be fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we can’t really say, but for the tow of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.On April22, 2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided t o educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped wecould show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic(有机的)stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buyin g we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.4.What might be the best title for the passage?A. Going Green.B. Protecting the Planet.C. Keeping Open-MindedD. Celebrating Our Green Year.5.It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because_________.A. they were expected to follow the green fadB. they didn’t kn ow how to educate other peopleC. they were unwilling to reduce their energyD. they needed to perform unusual green tasks6.What did the couple do over the course of Our Green Year?A. They tried to get out of their ungreen habits.B. They ignore others’ ungreen behavior.C. They chose better chemical cleaners.D. They sold their home-made food.7.What can we infer form the last paragraph?A. The government will give support to the green people.B. The couple may continue their project in the future.C. Some people disagree with the couple’s green ideas.D. Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.CThree Chilean engineers say they have found a way to prevent determined thieves with what they claim is the world's first "unstealable bike."The design, called the Yerka, looks like an average bike, but the bottom tube of the frame can be split into two parts and wrapped around a pole. According to its creators, the frame can be taken apart and reconnected to make a lock in just 10 seconds. Once the bike's seat tube forms a lock, the only way to steal the bike would be to cut through it, destroying it in the process.The Yerka is the creation of Cristóbal Cabello, 22, Andrés Roi Eggers, 23 and Juan José Monsalve, 24. The design was first announced in November 2014, but recently, the team said they had put in their first order to produce 300 Yerkas.While an investment of $100,000 from a state enterprise fund helped the project along, they raised most of their funds on crowdfunding site Indiegogo. The start-up sold the first 100 bikes for $400 then increased the price to $500. In future it will rise to $600, according to a CNN report.While they call it the world's first unstealable bike, critics have previously said the lock could be picked or the bike easily destroyed. Thieves might also be happy simply t o get the handlebars or front wheel. But the team say that if they weren't working on something as revolutionary as this, they would have their critics. They also add that the wheels have anti-theft nuts(螺母) that can only be opened with a special key.The designers are now working on an app that will let users open up their bike using the smartphone.8.What makes the Yerka different from an average bike?A. Its lock can only be opened with a special key.B. It can be controlled well by a smartphone.C. It can be locked in just 10 seconds.D. It can change its frame into a lock.9.Where did most of the investment in the Yerka come from?A. A stat enterprise fund.B. A crowdfunding website.C. The local government.D. The creator’s family.10.What can be inferred from the fifth paragraph?A. There is still some argument about the Yerka.B. The team worry bike wheels might be stolen.C. The lock of the Yerka won’t be destroyed.D. The Yerka is becoming more and more popular.11.What does the underlined sentence imply?A. The team will invent more creative things.B. There are too many critics of the team.C. The team are brave to criticize themselves.D. The team don’t accept the criticism.DIt is one of the clear downsides of having friends or relatives who jet off to foreign countries. Not only is there a chance that you will have to sit through a session of boring photos displaying a holiday that you were not part of –there is also a real risk that your “loved ones” will return from their break offering a gift you really don’t want.According to a new study, most of us fear receiving a gift – brought back from abroad by those whose intentions are entirely good, but whose taste in presents is rather more lacking. A survey conducted by travel search website Skyscanner saw over two thirds of those questioned (69 per cent) admit that they would rather not receive souvenirs from other people’s holidays. Just four per cent of the 2,000 respondents said they find holiday gifts of use.The presents most likely to make us say an unconvincing thank you are ornaments, with 14 per cent of the survey’s respondents listing said items –cheap pottery statues –as the most disappointing travel present you can receive. Also high on the name-and-shame list are comedy T-shirts (described as “most disappointing” by nine per cen t), bargain jewellery (also nine per cent), key rings and fridge magnets (seven per cent) and food products and snow globes (both four per cent).Fifteen per cent find an instant new home for these undesired presents – the bin. Others stop short of immediately getting rid of their unrequested new possessions – but plenty of us also decline to put them on display. Six per cent said they share the burden by re-gifting the items to others, while three per cent are even more impolite and put the souvenirs up for sale on sites such as e-Bay.But apparently, the problem of gifts no one likes is widespread. According to figures from the World Tourism Organisation, an estimated 5 billion is wasted on unnecessary ornaments byholidaymakers in Europe every year.12.What will happen after your “loved ones” return home from abroad?A. They probably will bring the useless presents to you.B. They may try their best to learn to improve their taste in presents.C. They will discus s the photos taken to make you part of the holiday.D. They will ask you about everything that happened during their absence.13.Which is the least disappointing travel present?A. Cheap pottery statues.B. Comedy T-shirts.C. Key rings.D. Food products.14.What will more people do with those undesired presents?A. Throw them away in the bin.B. Put them in the display case.C. Present them to other friends.D. Sell them on the second-hand market.15.The main purpose of the passage is to ___________.A. inform people of the result of a new studyB. encourage people to make plans before travelingC. tell people about the rules for holiday gift givingD. show the importance and future trend of gift giving第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

With so little conversation I was quick to 13 his family as cold. When we got into the14 to go home, his father suddenly appeared.15 , he began to wash his son's windscreen. I could feel he was a caring man through the glass.I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often 16 me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It's a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant 17 or inquiry about my life, just financial instructions. This manner of his 18 me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father's success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his 19 morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I 20 him.When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I've often felt 21 . For example, I always return phone calls 22 and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the 23 : She wasn't a good friend! My anger 24 as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I 25 and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month.
