A．followed B．would follow

第二局部阅读理解(共25小题；每一小题2分，总分为50分)
阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最优选项。

A
Finish the course of pills: that's what all doctors say when they prescribe antibiotics(抗生素)．But now, you should be cautious about them.New research suggests that might not always work as well as they assume, and may even compound(使严重) the problem of antibiotic－resistant bacteria.
Doctors consider it good practice to hit bacterial infections with high doses of antibiotics for days or longer, to make sure all the bacteria are dead.To treat tough infections, they combine two or more antibiotics in order to prevent the evolution of resistance, so if a bug starts resisting drug A, it will still be killed by drug B.
But much of this is based on assumption rather than evidence, says Robert Beardmore at the University of Exeter in the UK.He and his colleagues tested this by treating cultures of E．coli (大肠杆菌)with two antibiotics－they kill more bacteria together than separately.They found that bacteria did indeed die off fast on the first day.But any bacteria that survived were those with genes for resisting both drugs, and they boomed(繁荣) as drug－sensitive competitors died.Bacterial loads were higher after treatment than they had been before it, and higher drug doses just quickened the growth of resistant populations.
“It's a double－edged sword，〞says Andrew Read of Pennsylvania State
University in University Park, who was not involved in the work.〞 We need to base treatment on better evidence.〞
Further experiments performed by Beardmore's team suggest that not only synergistic(协同作用的) drugs but also longer treatment might not hammer(锤击)the surviving bacteria as intended.Instead such approaches might make more of the survivors and may even worsen the infection.〞I'm not advocating low dosing，〞 says Beardmore, as this does lead to resistance.But, he says, “We need a better understanding of how antibiotics work in different situations instead of going on untested assumptions.〞
【语篇解读】当我们生病的时候我们会吃药或者打针，利用抗生素杀死我们体内的病毒，那是不是抗生素用的越多对我们的身体越有好处呢？
41．In Para.3, the author used the Robert Beardmore and his colleagues' test to show________．
A．the antibiotics can't kill bacterial
B．the antibiotics would help certain bacteria grow at some time
C．more antibiotics will keep you healthy
D．combined antibiotics can't work effectively
答案 B
解析细节理解题。

从文中第三段的表示可知抗生素在杀死某种细菌的同时也促进了某种细菌的生长故B项正确。

A项违背事实；C D 两项与文章事实不符。

42．Which is the reason why survived bacteria grow rapidly ?
A．Their competitors are killed by the antibiotics.
B．The antibiotics slow down the growth of their competitors.
C．The antibiotics quicken the growth of their competitors.
D．They adapt to the antibiotics.
答案 A
解析细节理解题。

从文中第三段的表示中可知幸存细菌对抗生素有抵制力，而且它们
的竞争者都被抗生素杀掉，抗生素的使用反过来又加快了细菌的生长。

43．Which of the following about Beardmore is correct?
A．He says that antibiotics is a double－edged sword.
B．He thinks that doctors' treatment should be based on scientific evidence.
C．He finds that synergistic drugs work better than longer treatment.
D．He thinks that the more antibiotics you eat, the more bacteria will be killed.
答案 B
解析细节理解题。

从文中第三段句首可知Robert认为医生的做法很大程度上是出于假设而没有证据。

文中最后一段也提到“We need a better understanding of how antibiotics work in different situations...〞不能只出于猜测。

A项是Andrew Read 的观点；C项提到的内容是：不论是协同作用的药物还是长期用药对幸存的细菌都没有人们认为的那么有效；D项与文章事实不符。

44．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Don't use antibiotics any more.
B．Antibiotics can't really kill bacteria.
C．More antibiotics may not always be better.
D．Antibiotics have many side－effects.
答案 C
解析主旨大意题。

45．In which section of a newspaper would you probably read the article?
A．diet B．science
C．health D．entertainment
答案 C
解析推理判断题。

文中主要论述了抗生素的使用与人的健康问题，显然应属于健康板块。

B
Ever since primary school，Megan has thought of herself as quiet and shy.Some people may mistakenly think that Megan is unfriendly.But it just takes time to get to know her.Megan's classmates know she is a caring friend and a great listener.Her closest friends know even more about her－including the fact that she's a good pianist who writes her own music.
Shyness is an emotion(情感) that affects how a person feels and behaves around others.Shyness can mean feeling uncomfortable，self－conscious，nervous，or unconfident.When people feel shy，they might be unwilling to say or do something because they're feeling unsure of themselves and they're not ready to be noticed.
Shyness is partly a result of person's genes(基因)．About 20% of people have a genetic tendency(倾向) to be naturally shy.The examples other people set can also play a role in whether a person learns to be shy or not.If the parents of a shy child are overly careful or protect them too much，it can teach the child to back away from situations that might be uncomfortable or unfamiliar.
Many people want to reduce their shyness.But people who are naturally shy also have gifts that they might not fully realize themselves.For example，because shy people may prefer listening to talking，they sometimes become really good listeners.People who are shy might also become sensitive to other people's feelings and emotions.Because of their sensitivity and listening skills，many people with a shy personality are especially caring toward others.People often consider them the finest friends.
If you're trying to become less shy，it can help to remember：
Overcoming(抑制) shyness takes practice.People who are shy often give themselves fewer chances to practice social behaviors.Practicing social skills can help people overcome shyness.The more you practice social behaviors，the easier they get，and the more natural they feel for you.

After 24 hours on a bus we were all a bit tired, cranky, and hot, but the moment we saw Norman Carr Cottage and the dancing waters of Lake Malawi out front we took a deep breath and the whole world changed.We instantly knew we were going to love it here and soon three days turned into eight.
Every morning we went out on their rustic and charming boat Alfie.We bought fish from the local fisherman floating around in their dugout canoes and as we threw them into the air fish eagles would gracefully swoop down and grab them in their claws.
On market day we went to the village.The market was full of piles and piles of old clothes.
There isn't a Gap or any store around and even if there was the families are too poor to buy anything.It made me a bit sad but we decided to do a costume party with my family, Jenny, Taffy, Alida, and Alice.The theme was movie characters and we all had to buy for someone else.I bought a Maria costume from The Sound of Music for Alida, and Alice bought a flapper costume for me.We looked ridiculous but no one cared.After our fun night we donated all the clothes back to the community.
Throughout the week we listened to the beautiful sounds of the local people
singing in their huts just steps away.Our final day it hit me that the end was near and that we needed to enjoy every last second so we hopped in some kayaks (皮艇)and explored the lake for hours.The setting couldn't have been more picturesque; the mountains in the background, the fishermen in their wooden boats and the sparkling turquoises water.We had such an amazing stay that this was one of the most difficult places to leave.

Prince Charles yesterday pledged(正式承诺) to reduce the royal impact on the environment through sweeping changes to his personal lifestyle and official schedule.The prince will replace carbon－heavy private jets and helicopters with scheduled flights and train services.
The move came as Prince Charles urged business leaders to publish the environmental pact(协定) of their activities.He said，“Few accountants and business decision－makers ask，‘How much of our critical natural resource is left？How many miles of polar ice cap has our business helped melt this year？By how many inches have we raised sea levels？How many species have we put at risk？How many homes will
be flooded，how many people will die of thirst or starvation because of our activities？’These are not comfortable questions，but，by God，they need to be asked.〞
He added，“At the moment these costs do not appear in anyone's books...Yet they are real，and in a relatively short time，the damage being caused may be beyond remedy(补救)．〞He said the world was “running up the__biggest__global__credit__card__debt in history，but with little or no thought for how the ill will ever be paid.〞
Accompanied by the prime minister and business and community leaders at St.James's Palace，the prince said his new “accounting for sustainability〞 project would give consumers the power to choose products that caused less damage to the planet.
Duchy Originals，the prince's food company，is taking steps to work out how much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas are emitted(散发) in growing，processing and distributing its products.The changes to the prince's travel arrangements announced yesterday are part of a wider review of the carbon footprint associated with activities at all three of his residences，Clarence House in London，Highgrove and Birkhall on the Balmoral estate，as well as the activities of his 21 personal and 105 fulltime staff.Measures include a review of electricity use，commuter and other staff travel and are intended to identify further reductions in carbon dioxide emissions.The review will report in June，when Clarence House will announce annual targets to reduce carbon emissions.

At 10：35 a．m.on December 17，1903，two brothers from Ohio flew the first successful airplane for 12 seconds and 120 feet along a beach in Kitty Hawk，North Carolina.With Orville flying first，the brothers took turns as pilot，and they flew three more times that day.On their fourth try，they managed to go 852 feet in 59 seconds—an amazing feat at the time.The two brothers had invented powered flight.
Orville and Wilbur Wright owned a bicycle shop in Dayton，Ohio.Although they had not gone to school to learn about airplanes or engineering，they were good mechanics.By repairing bicycles，they had learned how gears and pulleys worked.They also learned to take careful notes about what they saw.Each time they made a new design and tested a machine，they took notes and made drawings.They would study these to figure out what they could do better the next time.
Before the Wright brothers flew，they did many things to prepare for this extraordinary achievement.They read everything they could find about air，balloons，and kites.Then they made careful sketches of what they wanted to build.They began
by making model kites to learn how air flowed over wings.They made them bigger and bigger until they had a glider—a kite that is big enough to hold a person，but with no engine.The Wright brothers made three gliders before building their first airplane.Each time they made a glider，they would test it，make careful observations，and then improve their design.
When they made a glider that flew well，they added an engine.This step was harder than it sounds，because they had to find an engine that was both light－weight and powerful.The engines that they could buy were either too heavy or too weak，so they asked their friend Charlie Taylor to help them build one.The first engine that Charlie built broke almost immediately，but the second one worked well.
After Orville and Wilbur installed the engine in their plane，they were almost ready.They simply had to wait for the perfect day with just the right amount of wind.On the morning of December 17，1903，they had their chance.And the airplane flew into history.

阅读下面短文并用英语回答如下问题(请注意问题后面的词数要求)。

[1]Fishing is probably the world's most popular sport.People spend many dollars each year on items like boats and four－wheel－drive vehicles.In addition，they spend money on fishing equipment，bait，fuel and boat repairs.And you can see that fishing can be an expensive pastime.Fishing lovers believe that their hobby is worth it.Others say that fishing is spoiling the environment and that it is a cruel hobby.
[2]Supporters of fishing say that it is a nice hobby.Firstly，of the millions of people who fish for fun，most only catch enough fish to feed their families.They catch fish that are found in large numbers，so there is little danger to the species (种类)．
[3]Secondly，recreational fishermen contribute to the economy.They spend money on equipment and other items，and they also spend it indirectly by paying taxes on their equipment and fuel.Those who travel to fishing spots pay for accommodation(食宿)and airfares.This money keeps people in work and provides new jobs each year.
[4]Thirdly，fishing is relaxing and fun so it lessens stress.Instead of turning to drugs or alcohol，it is far better to go fishing.People who are relaxed are generally healthier and much nicer to be near－except for the smell of the bait!。
