A
People living on parts of the south coast of England face a serious problem. Last year the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.
Erosion (侵蚀) of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people, forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea.
Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls
would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock, which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.
21．What is the cause of the problem that people living on parts of the south coast of England face?
A．The disappearance of hotels, houses and gardens.
B．The experts' lack of knowledge.
C．The rising of the sea level.
D．The washing-away of limestone cliffs.
22．The erosion of the white cliffs in the south of England ________.
A．will soon become a problem for people living in central England
B．has now become a threat to the local residents
C．is quickly changing the map of England
D．can be stopped if proper measures are taken
23．The expert's study on the problem of erosion can ________.
A．lead to its eventual solution
B．provide an effective way to slow it down
C．help to prevent it from worsening
D．warn people whose homes are in danger
24．It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because ________.
A．it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areas
B．the government is too slow in taking action
C．they will be easily knocked down by waves and currents
D．house agents along the coast do not support the idea
B
ZHENGZHOU — Forty-one people died and six others were injured after an overloaded bus caught fire in Xinyang City, Central Henan Province, early Friday morning, the deadliest bus incident in years.
A total of 47 people were on board when the 35-seat bus caught fire at 4 am on the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway.The cause of the fire is still being investigated, said Zhang Guohui, head of the Henan Provincial Work Safety Administration.
Among the six injured, one person was in dangerous condition in Zhumadian No.159 hospital, while the other five, including the bus driver, were being treated in a hospital in Xinyang,
according to Xinyang local police.
The double-decker sleeper bus was on its way from the city of Weihai in eastern Shandong Province to central Hunan's provincial capital Changsha.
The body remains were burned beyond recognition and the dead will have to be identified by DNA testing, according to police.
Ding Qingfa, who was slightly injured in the fire, got on the bus with five other people in Heze City, 500 km southwest of Weihai.
“I was sleeping but woke up by a sudden 'bang'，and I saw a big fire ball falling down, so I ran，” Ding said.
He and his friends were sleeping in the aisle (过道) because the bus was already full when they boarded.
“People were screaming inside the bus, and the entire bus was on fire with black smoke spiraling (盘旋上升)，” he said.
Ding said he asked the driver who had also fled the bus whether there was a fire extinguisher (灭火器), but the driver replied that it didn't function — the fire was too big.
The driver is being questioned in hospital by police.
An investigation team from the State Administration of Work Safety has arrived at the scene from Beijing to look into the incident.
25．Which is the best title of this news?
A．41 Dead in Bus Fire in Central China

26．How many passengers were injured in the bus accident?

In most situations, light helps us see. But when it comes to looking at
the night sky, light is actually a kind of pollution. It prevents our view of
some of life's most striking sights: stars, planets, and even galaxies.
“When I was a little boy, I loved the night sky. I remember looking
up and the sky was filled with stars. I became an astronomer because I was amazed by their beauty，” says Robert Gent，“Now in most big cities kids can't see the stars like I did.”
Normally, about 2,500 individual (单个的) stars are visible to the human eyes without using any special equipment. But because of light pollution, you actually see just 200 to 300 and fewer than a dozen from some cities. Only one in three Americans can see our own galaxy with the naked eyes. Those people live far away from the lights of big cities, office buildings, and shopping malls.
Fortunately, there's an inexpensive and useful way. If we shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky, and use lower brightness levels, we can save big amounts of energy and keep the beauty of the night skies. Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night，making sure enough shine for safety without creating much light pollution.
Light pollution affects more than our view of the heavens and can harm wildlife. Migrating birds sometimes fly over cities and become confused by the brightness, flying in circles until they drop from exhaustion. Sea turtles need dark beaches for nesting and won't approach bright lights. Too much light at night may even affect human health. For all these reasons, researchers are working on ways to use lights only when and where they are truly needed. Everyone deserves to look up at the infinite sky.
29.According to the text, using our naked eyes, ________.
A．people in remote areas can see more stars than those in big cities
B．over one third Americans can see our own galaxy
C．about one in three Americans in big cities can see our own galaxy
D．Americans can only see 200 to 300 stars
30．Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night mainly to ________.
A．save the electricity
B．make sure of cities' safety
C．let you count the number of stars
D．avoid much light pollution
31．The underlined word “exhaustion” in the last paragraph means ________.
A．air pollution B．tiredness
C．breath D．brightness
32．What would be the best title for the text?
A．Light Pollution B．Seeking the Sky
C．Stars in the Sky D．City Pollution

We all, at one time or another, have pretended to be a rock star, singing and dancing along to our favorite song. Most of us have done this in the privacy of our own room when we were kids and as adults, in the privacy of our homes. Me? I love to do that when I drive! I turn on the radio, find a song that I can sing along and pretty soon my arms are in the air and I am moving along to the rhythm (节奏). Most of the time, I do this on my way to work. Yes, that is true. I will be in my nice work clothes, jamming(堵塞) while driving or stopping at a traffic light. I get strange looks from some people and others laugh. Personally, I love to get lost in the rhythm of a song which leads me to share with you the importance of being silly!
The definition for the word silly, according to the dictionary, is: stupid, foolish. I know many people do not want to look foolish. So they walk around all serious, which in all honesty, is foolish! No one is perfect, I repeat: No one is perfect. I don't care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how simple, how frugal (朴素的), how rich, and so on ... No one is perfect! So why pretend to be something you are not? Life is so short ... You never know when this beautiful journey will be over, so why waste a single second being so serious? Here is a quote by Souza, which I think is of great importance for life：
“Dance as though no one is watching you，
Love as though you have never been hurt before，
Sing as though no one can hear you，
Live as though Heaven is on Earth.”
When we were kids, we had no idea of what limitations (限制) were and we had no care for the world so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared in the eyes of others. However, as we grew up, we lost that childlike innocence (天真). So don't lose the child that still lives within you. The next time you feel down, go to turn on your favorite song, and sing and dance along like there is no tomorrow. Or watch something that makes you laugh. Laughter is the best medicine to whatever troubles you and nothing is better than laughing hard. Trust me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn't want to feel good?
33．Why do we lose childlike innocence when we grow up?
A．Because we have lost interest in the music.
B．Because we have pretended to be something we are not.
C．Because we don't care about the opinions of others.
D．Because we've known what limitations are.
34．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Listening to music makes us forget worries forever.
B．Actually, everyone is not willing to grow up.
C．We should hold optimistic attitudes to our daily life.
D．The author has no worries in life ever since.
35．The passage mainly tells us about the ________.
A．attitude towards life
B．different ideas about life
C．ways to cheer up in life
D．ways to enjoy life
Ⅲ.任务型阅读(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
How can we all get more laughter into our lives? Here is what the experts suggest：
__36__ Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N. Y．，was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing.

Ⅵ.短文改错(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
I think there is no easy way to succeed in teaching a new language.A good memory is a great help. However, it is not much use learning by heart long lists of words and its meanings. We must learn by using language.“Learn through practice” is a piece of good advice for those which are learning a new language. Practice is very important. We must practise to speaking and writing the language so much as we can. We learn to swim by getting onto the water and swim. And we learn to speak a new language by speaking it and not by being telling about it.

Jack had gone to the university to study history, but at the end of his first year, his history professor failed him in his examinations, and he was told that he would have to leave the university. However, his father decided that he would go to see the professor to urge him to let Jack continue his studies the following year.
“He's a good boy，” said Jack's fat her, “and if you let him pass this time, I'm sure he'll improve a lot next year and pass the examinations.”
“No, no, that's quite impossible，” replied the professor immediately. “Do you know, last month I asked him when Napoleon had died, he didn't know！”
“Please, sir, give him another chance，” said Jack's father. “You see, I'm afraid we don't take any newspaper in our house, so none of us even know that Napoleon was ill.”
语篇解读：本文介绍了生活在英格兰南部海岸附近的人们面临着花园、房屋被淹的问题。

该问题一直存在，但最近几年越来越严重。

21．选D细节理解题。

第二段的第一句提出导致问题的原因：沿英格兰南海岸的白色峭壁被海水侵蚀。

原文中的erosion对应选项D中的washing-away。

22．选B细节理解题。

第二段第一、二句指出：沿英格兰南海岸的白色峭壁被侵蚀，这是一直存在的问题，但近年来这一问题更加严重。

许多房屋被吞没，海水日益侵入内陆。

23．选D推理判断题。

第二段最后一句指出：专家们研究了受影响最大的地区，为当地人勾画了一幅地图以预报何年他们的家园会被海水吞没。

24．选A推理判断题。

由第三段第二、三句可知，“政府勘测家们已指出，在大多数情况下，不可能筑起海水防护堤墙，因为这会花费数以亿计的英镑，而且这只会使海浪沿海岸进一步推进，使问题从一个地区转向另一地区。

”
语篇解读：这是一篇关于长途汽车中途起火事故的新闻报道。

文中介绍了事故发生的地点、时间、死亡人数以及善后工作。

25．选A主旨大意题。

新闻类的文章一般在第一段就简要说明新闻的主旨大意，此新闻第一段就点明了在信阳发生的汽车火灾事故导致41人死亡6人受伤。

故A项作为本文标题最合适。

26．选B细节理解题。

由第三段可知，6个伤者里面有司机，而该题问的是有多少乘客受伤，应把司机减去，故选B。

27．选C细节理解题。

从第五段“The body remains were burned beyond recognition and the dead will have to be identified by DNA testing, according to police.”可知，只能通过DNA检测来确定死者的身份。

故选C项。

28．选A推理判断题。

通过“他睡在过道里”的事实，还有第七段他对事故发生时的描述来推断，答案应该选A。

其余选项均与文章内容不符。

29．选A由第三段第三、四句可知，只有1/3的美国人裸眼可见我们所属的银河系，而这些人只是居住在那些远离大城市、办公楼及购物广场的地方，即可判断出A项正确，remote“遥远的；偏僻的”；B、C项错误；由该段第二句可知D项错误。

30．选D根据文章第四段最后一句可知，有些城市之所以要限制夜间的灯光，主要是为了避免过多的灯光污染。

31．选B根据前半句话，由于夜间的灯光照耀，小鸟在城市上空盘旋，直到坠落，疲劳而死。

exhaustion“疲惫；筋疲力尽”。

32．选A本文主要指出了灯光也是一种污染，过多的灯光不仅会使人欣赏不到美丽的夜空，而且还会给动物和人类带来一定的伤害。

语篇解读：人的一生，短短数十载，不够时间计较，不够时间事事明细，不必在思前想后中消磨时间，而要保持真我，享受快乐。

33．选B推理判断题。

从第三段可知，随着我们成长，我们伪装并表现出实际上并非真我的自己。

34．选C推理判断题。

从文章最后一段，我们可以推理出：我们应该拥有乐观的人生态度。

譬如：笑声、唱歌和跳舞，都能使自己摆脱沮丧。

35．选A主旨大意题。

文章主要讲述了作者的生活态度——保持真我，享受快乐。

因此答案应该选择A。

36～40AFGBD
语篇解读：我们经常会感到快乐的时光似火箭，飞速流逝；而无聊的日子如抽丝，痛苦且漫长。

这到底是怎么回事呢？
41．选C can't believe体现出了对时间过得如此之快的惊讶与感叹。

Gulangyu — A Fairyland in the World
Gulangyu, which is an island located to the southwest of Xiamen, covers an area of no more than two square kilometers.
The scenery there is very beautiful, especially when you enjoy it from the top of the Sunshine Rock. Because of its natural beauty, Gulangyu is regarded as a garden on the sea. There is a ban on driving motor vehicle on the island, which makes the island so quiet that music played on the piano can be heard. However, there are some disadvantages there. The ticket prices for most attractions are very high. What's worse, with the development of tourism, the original scenery on the island has been destroyed and polluted.
It is hoped that everyone should make every effort to keep its beauty.。
