I felt excited. I was also stressed about studying abroad and the cost. To save up.

I broke into tears, and spent the whole night playing video games-a much-needed break after months of non-stop work. But I didn't give up. Two weeks later, my project began to produce results.
After being rejected several times in full-time job hunting. I had a chance to meet with Professor Brown I hardly remembered from two lectures he had given. I was analyzing my data when he mentioned he was looking for an assistant and encouraged me to apply. I didn't think I stood a chance, but I figured I had nothing to lose. To my surprise, the professor who valued my efforts and ability offered me the job.

Roadkill, the killing of an animal by a car hitting it on the road, is a serious problem in the United States. In the U.S. alone, there are more than a million car accidents per year involving wildlife. For many species, it is the leading cause of death. In addition, major roads can separate animal populations and destroy their habitats. Animals lose access (通道) to large areas of their habitats, which makes it much harder for many animals to find food and a mate.
As people have become more aware of the danger to humans and animals, animal crossings are becoming more common. The crossings can come in many forms. The type depends on the species that need to cross and the geographic features of the land. The most common forms are bridges, overpasses and tunnels. Planners are increasingly including them when they design highways and road improvements. The crossings greatly reduce the number of crashes, provide a safe corridor for animals and reconnect animal habitats.
Wildlife bridges are usually covered in native plants. In the United Kingdom, people often call them “green bridges.” The idea is to make the crossing look like a natural part of the landscape, so animals will cross there.
The idea was first developed in France in the 1950s. It took off in the Netherlands, where more than 600 crossings have been built. The Dutch built the world's longest animal crossing. the Natuurbrug Zanderij Crailoo, which is more than
a half mile.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. Major roads give way to animal habitats.
B. Animal habitats can be destroyed by roadkill.
C. Many animals lose their lives due to roadkill.
D. Major roads provide animals with access to food.
9. What do planners consider when deciding the crossing forms?
A. Human activities and animal habitats.
B. Corridor safety and habitat connection.
C. Highway designs and road improvements.
D. The wildlife species and land characteristics.
10. What does the underlined phrase “took off” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Went wasted.
B. Became successful.
C. Appeared suddenly.
D. Changed immediately.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. Green bridges.
B. Roadkill problems.
C. Wildlife crossings.
D. Road improvements.

The Fourth of July is an important day for the Quad Cities River Bandits, a Minor League Baseball team. Thousands of fans crowd into Modern Woodmen Park in Davenport, lowa, to cheer on the home team and watch fireworks. But it was a bit different in 2014, says Chesser, the Bandits' manager, when the baseball stadium was rurned into an island in the middle of the Mississippi River. Fans had to cross the floodwaters on a movable bridge to reach the stadium.
Davenport is the only major city on the upper Mississippi River without flood walls to hold back the river. Instead of building a barrier(障碍)between the river and nearby homes and businesses. Davenport designed its downtown to be floodable lining the city's nine miles of riverfront (滨河地区) with parks, bike tracks, parking lots, and a very wet baseball stadium.
Local leadership says thin method has come with some economic benefits. Building a wall would be expensive, potentially costing more than present flood cleanups. “When the river comes up, and that happens every year now, we let it take its own course. There is nothing really in there that could be damaged,” says former Davenport mayor Bill Gluba.
Davenport’s method does come at a cost. “When we have a flood, we put off other important services.” says Public Works Director Nicole Gleason,” We press a stop button on everything that's scheduled.”
Despite complaints (抱怨) about slow road repair, the Davenport community realizes what it has gained with the public green space. Locals enjoy frequent citywide events, from festivals and concerts on the riverfront to an annual Father's Day bike ride.
For residents like Bandits' manager Chesser, the many beautiful days at the riverfront more than make up for the day when flooding spreads into the city. “I can't complain if five days a year Mother Nature decides to throw us a curveball.” he says.
12. Why does the writer mention “The baseball stadium” In Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To analyze the problem.
D. To explain an idea.
13. What's special about Davenport's flood-prevention method?
A. It designed in floodable riverfront.
B. It blocked away the flood effectively.
C. It used valuable land to build flood walls.
D. It spent much more than the traditional way.
14. Which statement will the locals probably agree with?
A. The city's flood method is short-sighted
B. The benefits can make up for flood influence.
C. The locals' life is hardly affected by the flood
D. The speed of road repair is extremely fast after flood.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Walling Up the City to Flood
B. Davenport's Peace with the Flood
C. A Model for Cities' Flood Management
D. A Common Method for Mississippi's Flood
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. B

47. 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Tourism can be both good and bad. Yes, it brings in money for the local economy and creates lots of jobs for locals, but it may also bring some problems.
One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited a destination. Tourists have used paint, rocks, or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt, the Colosseum in Rome, Stonehenge in the UK, memorial stones at the bottom of Qomolangma, and many, many other places. Thousands of tourist sites
are being destroyed by tourists who “love them to death”.
Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing (打扰) the local people and life. Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission. For example, Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas, taking pictures of students and disturbing their studies. Another example is Sanlitun, a neighbourhood in Beijing. China. Some tourists love to party there late into the night, making it difficult for locals to sleep.
The number of problems from tourists is endless: walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by, crossing roads without thinking of local traffic laws, and many more. The only way to solve the problem of the terrible tourist is to make sure that you are not one! Be the best, kindest, most polite tourist possible.
注意：请在答题卡的相应位置作答。

_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _
【答案】While tourism brings great benefits, it also causes serious problems. One problem is that many tourists, who want to prove their presence, destroy the tourist sites using paint, rocks to leave ugly marks on. Another problem is that some tourists wander around randomly or even party late, disturbing the locals. Therefore, it is high time that we should behave ourselves to avoid these problems.
