Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.(1)During the 1990s, I had spent five months in a bleak African country, Niger. There were many things I found difficult about that place the beggars were my biggest most constant gripes. They would continually thrust their hands into my face, shouting," Cadeau! Cadeau!"(gift in French)After I had finished my nursing stint there, a friend and I headed for neighbouring Burkina Faso to work in a health clinic with much enthusiasm. "It's much greener in Burkina. Even the Coke tastes better," the locals assuredus.Arriving by taxi in our destination in Burkina, we began to unload. With my daypack wedged between my legs, I reached for my larger piece of luggage. Out of the darkness, a motorcycle with two men approached slowly. Without warning, one of the men grabbed my daypack as the motorcycle swept close by and disappeared into the night. The bag had my passport, money traveller's checks, camera in it. I was in deep trouble and the nearest Australian consulate(领事馆) was in Ethiopia. How was I ever going to get a new passport anytime soon?In the weeks that followed, I guarded the rest of my valuables and regarded the locals withsuspicion. All I wanted was to leave that terrible place.Then walking through the Burkina's streets one day, an old woman approached me and thrust her hand in my face. "Dear lady Cadeau! Cadeau!" she cried. I had enough. I told her firmly in French," I have no 'cadeau'. I have no money. A thief stole all my money and now I can't get out of your country. I can't give you anything." The beggar woman listened attentively and pondered my words. Then her face crumpled into a toothless grin as she reached into the folds of her dress. "Then I will give you a cadeau," she announced. Kindly, she placed an old dark brown coin in my palm. I looked at it in shock. It was a minuscule amount of money but for this woman the coin represented a meal. At that moment, I felt the shame of affluence and the humility of charity. She had given me a gift disproportionate to anything that I had ever donated.In the midst of her poverty, she was able to give me something priceless. I saw then, theunexpected beauty of the people and appreciated profoundly the quiet dignity of the poor.56.

The main aim of the RGS Carnival is toA. select the best RGS activityB. showcase the pupils' musical talentC. test hearts of participants with haunted housesD. raise funds for the school's CIPF(3)The amazon is the largest and most diverse rain forest in the world-about 10 percent of all known species on earth dwell there. But it wasn't until recently that researchers were about to see the 'big picture' of the vast rain forest.The new findings? Almost 400 billion trees belonging to 16,000 different types grow in theAmazon. More than 100 experts analyzed data from 1,170 surveys to come up with the figures.The vast size and difficult terrain (地形) of the Amazon basin has historically restricted studies of tree communities to a local or regional level, making it difficult to see the big picture. This lack ofinformation has hindered science and conservation efforts, according to experts.The new findings, published in the journal Science, provide the first estimates of the abundance, frequency and distribution of many thousands of Amazonian trees. Extrapolations based on the data, collected over 10 years, suggest that greater Amazonia is home to around 390 billion individual trees. The area covered includes the amazon Basin and the Guiana Shield, spanning an area roughly the size of the 48 adjoining U.S. States.While around 16,000 types of trees are believed to exist in the Amazon, half the total number ofthe types are thought to belong to just 227 species, including Brazil nut, chocolate and rubber. "This isvery valuable information for further research and policy making," said research co-author Dr. Hans ter Steege, from the Netherlands.The study also offers insights into the rarest tree species in the Amazon. According to amathematical model used in the study, roughly 6,000 Amazonnian tree types have populations of fewer than one thousand. This would automatically qualify them for inclusion in the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species(CNRLTS)-if they could be found and identified.U.S. ecologist and co-author of the study, Professor Miles Silman said," Species too rare to find account for much of the planet's biodiversity. It's a real problem for conservation that the species at the greatest risk of extinction may disappear before we ever find them. It's a concem for the whole human race."62. The underlined word hinder is closest in meaning toA. generatedB. blockedC. sponsoredD. improved63. According to the passage, what made the collection of species information so difficult?A. The lack of experienced professionals in the field.B. The dangers of certain types of species.C. The big area and complicated geographic situation.D. The unfavourable government law in the field.64. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The amazon rain forest covers 10 percent of the world's dry land.B. The conservation of amazon has been done well.C. About 8000 types of trees belong to over 220 species.D. About 6000 Amazonnian tree types have died out.65. The species conservation was made difficult byA. the negative climate of the amazon landB. the possibility of dying of rare speciesC. the lack of conservation fundD. the human beings' lack of concernVI．Translation(]0％)Directions：Translate the following sentences into English，using the word or phrase given in thebrackets．1．很难相信他在这么艰苦的环境中活了下来。
上海市高一第二学期期末考试英语试卷(共6套,含答案)
上海市宝山区高一下学期期末考试英语试题Ⅱ.Grammar and VocabularySection A (10%)Directions: After reading the passages below,fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct.For the blanks with a given word,fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word;for the other blanks,use one word that best fits each blank.In France,there once lived a man named Louis Pasteur,who was a doctor of science.The thing (17) occupied his mind was the disease rabies."I must find the rabies germs that hide inside people and make them so sick (18) they die,"he thought. "Once I find that invisible enemy,I'll think of a way to kill it.I just know I (19) do it."Many people thought Pasteur was wasting his time.Some laughed at him and said,"You'll never do it.No one can find (20) invisible enemy!"Pasteur didn't care (21) people thought,he believed in (22) .He kept right on working.Meanwhile,in German,a boy named Joey was about to get into trouble.He wasn't a bad boy,he was just thoughtless,as children sometimes are.He was playing with a dog.But this dog was sick with rabies,(23) made the dog mad.When Joey got tired of playing with the dog,he started to go home.Unfortunately,the dog escaped from behind the fence and bit Joey.The invisible enemy—the rabies germs—were passed on from the dog to Joey.Soon the little boy was very sick.Everyone knew that if someone was bitten by a sick,mad dog,that person would become infected with rabies and die.His parents could only wait.But then there was news.Joey's mother saw it and shouted for joy."A doctor of science (24) (find) a way to save people like Joey!"she said."He says sick people like Joey have been infected by an invisible enemy,and he's found a way to kill it!"The man,of course,was Louis Pasteur.He had done what he had set out to do.Joey's parents quickly prepared Joey (25) the long journey to Paris."Dr.Pasteur,"said the mother upon their arrival at Pasteur's residence,"we've come a long way.Our little boy (26) (bite) by a mad dog,and he's very sick.Can you help us?""Perhaps,"said Pasteur."I've invented a vaccine（疫苗）.It is strong enough to kill the invisible enemy.Joey was finally saved and later became a gatekeeper at the Pasteur Institute.Section B (10%)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.threatB.certainC.developingD.necessarilyE.checkedF.potentialG.speciallyH.connectionI.preserveJ.exerciseK.healthyYou've probably heard of the list of factors that put you at risk for heart disease: smoking,poor diet,lack of_27_ and so on.But did you know that the health of your gums（牙龈）may also affect your chance of_28_heart disease?More than 120 studies have investigated the_29_link between gum disease and heart disease.Most of them say that gum disease is a risk factor for heart disease and other diseases that affect blood vessels.This means that people with gum disease often develop heart disease but that gum disease doesn't_30_cause heart disease.Doctors and scientists have proposed a number of possible reasons for this connection.One common factor is inflammation（发炎）,which occurs when the body senses a_31_and sends white blood cells to attack it.This leads to painful swelling（肿胀）,which is the main symptom of gum disease.White inflammation hasn't been shown to cause heart disease,it often accompanies it.And as it turns out,the same types of bacteria often lead to inflammation in both diseases.It's also possible that the_32_has less to do with biology than with an individual's habits.Perhaps people who take good care of their teeth make other healthy choices that prevent heart disease.So what does this mean for your health?Since the role of gum disease in causing heart disease isn't_33_,don't take it for granted that taking care of your teeth will protect your heart.Certainly,brushing and cleaning are not replacement for exercise and a_34_diet.But keeping your mouth healthy and avoiding gum disease are still good goals to go after.They'll spare you pain and high dental bills and keep your bright smile complete.This research does mean that if you have gum disease,you should get your heart_35_this is especially true if you are at risk of heart disease for other reason,such as smoking.Who would have thought that your mouth and your heart would be connected?The body is a complex and mysterious thing,so do all you can to_36_it.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A (14%)Directions: For each blank in the following passage,there are four words marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The secret to Dwanyne Johnson's success is simple—he gives people what they want.TROUBLED YOUTHWhen he was young,Johnson's family_37_with money,which led him down a bad path.While they lived in Hawaii,Johnson stole form tourists and high-end stores.When this_38_police involvement,he decided to make a_39_.

Rather than donating blood to her cause,you wave the insect away.But that rarely works.Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy（痒的）red welts somewhere.Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away?Yes, indeed!Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness.Mosquito-borne disease such as the Zika virus or malaria have terrible results.Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year,adding urgency to the battle.Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes.These include those who are pregnant,have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood.These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible,especially at dawn and dusk.Many breeds of mosquitoes are more likely to bite at these times.People should also wear light,bright colors as dark colors attract the insects.Rubbing mosquito repellents（驱蚊剂）on exposed skin keeps the insects away for a time.Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective.Depending on the brand of repellent,the chemical keeps mosquitoes away for 5 to 13 hours.Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET,but they require more frequent application-every two hours—and in greater concentrations.Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities.Another chemical,permethrin,can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes.The chemical sticks to the fabric and will last through a few washings.Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is alsoavailable. The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings.Mosquito coil（圈，卷）also keep mosquitoes away.However,the smoke from them pollutes and can damage the lungs,so they should be used with care.When you're inside,simply plugging in some fans will keep mosquitoes away as they are weak fliers.Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites,so try several methods to see what works for you.56.which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Mosquitoes usually don't like dark colors.B.Mosquitoes don't like people with type O blood.C.It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing.D.It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off.57.What does the phrase ward off in Para 5 most probably mean?A.prevent fromB.take inC.break awayD.turn out58.What is the best title of the passage?A.How to get rid of mosquitoes.B.Keep mosquitoes away.C.Be aware of mosquitoes.D.Pay attention to mosquitoes.59.What does this article imply about mosquitoes?A.Electric fans can be used to blow mosquitoes away.B.People had better use the methods together to avoid mosquitoes.C.Mosquitoes would like to bite people at dawn or dusk.D.Different people should choose different ways to avoid mosquitoes.Section C (4%)Directions: Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.English is closely related to German,but it uses many words from French.B.English is a multi-culture,which has different background and people.C.This is partly because English includes words from so many languages.D.Over fifty countries have English as their official language and use it for higher education.E.Some English speakers use words only to fill pauses when they talk.F.People usually use some special words to avoid embarrassing occasions.Let's learn about EnglishIf you're reading this,you've probably already spent many hours studying English.But here are facts you may not know about the language:English is one of the most common languages in the world.Some experts estimate that English has about 339 million native speakers._60_.This does not include the United States,which has no official language.English is also the official language of the sky.That means all pilots use it on international flights._61_This is because a French-speaking ruler conquered England in the 11th century.English also includes words from many other languages.This is because people in British colonies spoke many languages.Words from many of those languages were added to English.Other words are added even today.As a result,English has one of the largest vocabularies of any language.You've probably noticed that English spelling can be hard to predict.For example,the long "e"sound can be spelled eight different ways.And the letters—"ough"—can be pronounced nine ways!_62_Spelling of English words often reflected their origins.The most common letter used in English is "e".But more words begin with "s" than any other in the alphabet.Most English words thyme with at least one other word.But month,orange,silver and purple don't thyme with anything._63_Some common examples are like,just and basically.These words are called 'crutch words',and it's best to avoid them.People who use too many crutch words sound like they aren't sure what they're trying to say.However much you know about English,there's always more to learn about this strange and interesting language.Ⅳ.Translation (15%) (3+3+4+5)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.64.现在看来,学生必须下定决心学好英语口语了。

The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a “positive emotional style” can help the common cold and other illnesses. Researchers believe the reasons may be both objective as in happiness increasing immune(免疫的) function and subjective as in happy people being less by a scratchy throat or runny nose. “People with a positive emotional style may have different immune to the virus,” explained the lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carne gie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. “And when they do get a cold, they may their illness as being less severe.”Cohen and his colleagues had found in a study that happier people seemed less likely to catch a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional tendency itself had the effect.For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults with complete standard measures of personality tendency, health-consciousness and emotional “style”. Those who be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, those who were often unhappy, tense and unfriendly had a negative style. The researchers gave them drops through their noses either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the reported on any aches, pains, sneezing they had, while the researchers collected data, like daily mucus(黏液) production. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes(鼻部的不适), happy people were less likely to develop a cold.【1】A．Living B．Staying C．Pulling D．Surviving【2】A．safeguard B．opportunity C．caution D．defense【3】A．excluded B．explored C．exposed D．escaped【4】A．generally B．commonly C．frequently D．perfectly【5】A．change B．fall C．turn D．remain【6】A．keep B．avoid C．deny D．remove【7】A．suffered B．troubled C．disturbed D．hinted【8】A．function B．ability C．response D．action【9】A．think B．relate C．interpret D．translate【10】A．formal B．current C．previous D．precious【11】A．tended to B．opposed to C．used to D．stuck to【12】A．while B．however C．what’s more D．therefore【13】A．implying B．matching C．containing D．occupying【14】A．patients B．adults C．volunteers D．researchers 【15】A．objective B．impressive C．positive D．effective三、阅读理解1.What I like to advise people is to find out what it is that makes them happy. What do you love to do? If you truly love what you do just go ahead and try to make a living by doing it. People will throw money at you to do it. But you will always have to work hard at it. I have to draw every single day of my life. I have to draw about 20 ideas. My advice is to put aside a certain amount of time every day and make you draw or whatever, especially when you don’t feel like it. Only in this way will you be able t o perfect your talent.The first step you take is to go to your local library and ask for the publications issued in the current years. When you get these publications, try to find the names of the top people concerned and their presidents. After you find these, write down their names and addresses. Keep this list and update it every year. Next thing you want to do is to create at least 40 cartoons. Get a grid（格子） from one of the strips in the newspapers, enlarge it to whatever size you wish and draw inside this grid. Now take the best 20 of your ideas and make them into finished pieces. To do this, you would want to copy them in ink because if you were a professional cartoonist, that was what you should do. Now you can reduce the size of the finished cartoo ns to fit onto a regular comic’s page. By comparing yours with the others already in print, it gives you a good idea of clarity to your cartoon.The next step is to write letters to presidents of the publication. In the letters, explain who you think would read your work, or in other words, what group do you think you would target. After you complete these, send all of your information enclosed with letters in the appropriate envelope.Now as soon as you send out these letters, start to create a brand new s trip with all new characters. Don’t get married to one idea because if your idea gets turned down then you will give up. And always remember. If you receive a rejection from any of them, keep in mind that you are working on something better. You will be working on something new and more exciting and the rejection letter will not have any impact. With this in mind…【1】What is the advice from the writer in the first paragraph when you want to succeed in your life?A．Stop doing anything until you find something quite suitable for your future career.B．Put aside a certain amount of time every day to consider how to make a living.C．Make a living by something that you truly like to do as your profession and work hard at it.D．Perfect your talent only by drawing some cartoons.【2】The purpose of writing a letter to the president was to ____.A．get some money to support the later careerB．enclose the information on how to become cartoonists with the letterC．focus his attention on the workD．explain who would be the readers of the work【3】The underlined phrase “get married to one idea” in the last paragraph probably refers to ______. A．having a strong desire to get marriedB．fixing all attention on one ideaC．marrying someone is a good ideasD．refusing one idea to get married2.Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means t hat other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers（阴沟） to handle waste, arid water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.【1】Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage? A．It is extremely important to develop tourism.B．Building roads and hotels is essential.C．Support facilities are highly necessary.D．Planning is of great importance to tourism.【2】Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ______.A. a bad impact on other industriesB. A change of tourists’ customsC. overcrowdedness of places of interest【3】It is good for local people to be well aware that tourism will _____.A．use up a large amount of waterB．weaken their economyC．help establish their traditionsD．help improve their life3.Every time you go to the supermarket you come away with your purchases packed in plastic bags. But wouldn’t it be kinder to the environment if you asked for paper bags instead?The answer is not as easy as it might seem. Environmentalists say there are drawbacks to using both plastic bags and paper bags.80 percent of groceries in the US are packed in plastic bags and the numbers are becoming huge. Consumers use between 500 billion and 1 trillion plastic bags per year worldwide.Some experts believe that all these bags harm the environment. Plastic takes hundreds of years to break down and, as it does so, poisonous materials are released into the water and soil.Further damage is caused if plastic bags enter the sea. For example, endangered sea turtles cannot tell the bags from jellyfish, their main source of food, and often choke on them.However, this kind of bag does have its advantages.Paper bags use more energy and create more waste than plastic bags. Plastic bags require 40 percent less energy to produce and cause 70 percent less air pollution. They also release as much as 94 percent less waste into the water than paper ones do.But paper bags do break down more quickly than plastic bags. They don’t endanger wildlife, either.So what should we do? One p ossible solution would be to use biodegradable plastic bags. “Biodegradable” means that the bags break down naturally just like a piece of banana peel when it is left outside.But until biodegradable technology improves, it might be easier to pack things you buy in reusable cloth bags. 【1】Compared to paper bags, plastic bags ______.A．produce 6 percent more wasteB．can be made biodegradable more easilyC．can be used as a source of foodD．save 40 percent of the energy【2】By saying “The answer is not as easy as it might seem,” (in paragraph 2) the writer means _____.A. biodegradable plastic bags can compete with paperB. paper bags seem to be kind to environmentC. it’s difficult to say whether plastic or paper bags are better for the environment【3】What does the author suggest people use at the present time?A．Paper bagsB．Plastic bagsC．Biodegradable plastic bags.D．Cloth bags.四、其他1.The scientists observed that the more junk food the rats ate, the more they wanted to eat – a behavior very similar to that of rats addicted(上了瘾的) to heroin, a dangerous drug. Johnson said the experiment shows that the brain chemistry of obesity(肥胖) and drug addiction may be quite similar.In their experiment, Johnson and his team studied the “pleasure center” of rats’ brains. The pleasure center is a complicated network of nerve cells. If the animal exercises or eats, the cells reward the animal by releasing chemicals into the body that make it feel good. And when the body feels good, the animal – or person – will want to do the behavior again.For the experiment, Johnson fed foods like cheesecake to one group of rats. Food like this is high in calories and fat. Another group of rats got a regular diet. The rats that ate junk food started to eat more and more.“They’re taking in twice the amount of calories as the control rats,” says Paul Kenny, one of Johnson’s colleagues.Kenny and Johnson wanted to know what was going on in the brains of these rats. They first designed a way to deliver a small electrical charge to the rats’ brains. This electrical charge would stimulate the pleasure centers to release pleasure-causing chemicals. The rats could control how much stimulation – and how much pleasure –they received by running on a wheel. The more the rat ran, the more pleasure it received.The rats that had been eating junk food started running more and more. This behavior suggested that the junk-food-eating rats needed more brain stimulation to feel good compared with rats on a normal diet. In other words, their pleasure centers were becoming less sensitive and the junk food didn’t make them feel good unless they ate more and more.Experiments like this one could help scientists understand how chemicals in the brain contribute to obesity. With that information, they may be able to help people avoid obesity in the first place.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)【1】The scientists suggested it was actually ___________________ that made the rats feel good.【2】How did the scientist know what was happening in the brains of the junk-food-eating rats?【3】What was the purpose of the experiment mentioned in the article?2.Fill in the blanks with the proper forms of given words. (7’)【1】A double room with a balcony overlooking the sea had been __________ (reservation) for him.【2】Our new offices are still under ___________ (construct), and this is not my office.【3】Nov.11 is __________ (reference) to as “Singles’ Day” by netizens nationwide.【4】They launched a campaign to save wild pandas from __________ (extinct).【5】Her ___________ (decide) to live abroad was a terrible blow to her parents.【6】The directors of the company refused to undertake such a ___________ (risk) venture.【7】Children are not usually allowed in, but I’m prepared to make an __________ (except) in this case.3.Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

上海市高一第二学期期末考试英语试卷(共6套,含答案)

"Once I find that invisible enemy,I'll think of a way to kill it.I just know I (19) do it."Many people thought Pasteur was wasting his time.Some laughed at him and said,"You'll never do it.No one can find (20) invisible enemy!"Pasteur didn't care (21) people thought,he believed in (22) .He kept right on working.Meanwhile,in German,a boy named Joey was about to get into trouble.He wasn't a bad boy,he was just thoughtless,as children sometimes are.He was playing with a dog.But this dog was sick with rabies,(23) made the dog mad.When Joey got tired of playing with the dog,he started to go home.Unfortunately,the dog escaped from behind the fence and bit Joey.The invisible enemy—the rabies germs—were passed on from the dog to Joey.Soon the little boy was very sick.Everyone knew that if someone was bitten by a sick,mad dog,that person would become infected with rabies and die.His parents could only wait.But then there was news.Joey's mother saw it and shouted for joy."A doctor of science (24) (find) a way to save people like Joey!"she said."He says sick people like Joey have been infected by an invisible enemy,and he's found a way to kill it!"The man,of course,was Louis Pasteur.He had done what he had set out to do.Joey's parents quickly prepared Joey (25) the long journey to Paris."Dr.Pasteur,"said the mother upon their arrival at Pasteur's residence,"we've come a long way.Our little boy (26) (bite) by a mad dog,and he's very sick.Can you help us?""Perhaps,"said Pasteur."I've invented a vaccine（疫苗）.It is strong enough to kill the invisible enemy.Joey was finally saved and later became a gatekeeper at the Pasteur Institute.Section B (10%)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.threatB.certainC.developingD.necessarilyE.checkedF.potentialG.speciallyH.connectionI.preserveJ.exerciseK.healthyYou've probably heard of the list of factors that put you at risk for heart disease: smoking,poor diet,lack of_27_ and so on.But did you know that the health of your gums（牙龈）may also affect your chance of_28_heart disease?More than 120 studies have investigated the_29_link between gum disease and heart disease.Most of them say that gum disease is a risk factor for heart disease and other diseases that affect blood vessels.This means that people with gum disease often develop heart disease but that gum disease doesn't_30_cause heart disease.Doctors and scientists have proposed a number of possible reasons for this connection.One common factor is inflammation（发炎）,which occurs when the body senses a_31_and sends white blood cells to attack it.This leads to painful swelling（肿胀）,which is the main symptom of gum disease.White inflammation hasn't been shown to cause heart disease,it often accompanies it.And as it turns out,the same types of bacteria often lead to inflammation in both diseases.It's also possible that the_32_has less to do with biology than with an individual's habits.Perhaps people who take good care of their teeth make other healthy choices that prevent heart disease.So what does this mean for your health?Since the role of gum disease in causing heart disease isn't_33_,don't take it for granted that taking care of your teeth will protect your heart.Certainly,brushing and cleaning are not replacement for exercise and a_34_diet.But keeping your mouth healthy and avoiding gum disease are still good goals to go after.They'll spare you pain and high dental bills and keep your bright smile complete.This research does mean that if you have gum disease,you should get your heart_35_this is especially true if you are at risk of heart disease for other reason,such as smoking.Who would have thought that your mouth and your heart would be connected?The body is a complex and mysterious thing,so do all you can to_36_it.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A (14%)Directions: For each blank in the following passage,there are four words marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The secret to Dwanyne Johnson's success is simple—he gives people what they want.TROUBLED YOUTHWhen he was young,Johnson's family_37_with money,which led him down a bad path.While they lived in Hawaii,Johnson stole form tourists and high-end stores.When this_38_police involvement,he decided to make a_39_.

Rather than donating blood to her cause,you wave the insect away.But that rarely works.Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy（痒的）red welts somewhere.Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away?Yes, indeed!Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness.Mosquito-borne disease such as the Zika virus or malaria have terrible results.Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year,adding urgency to the battle.Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes.These include those who are pregnant,have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood.These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible,especially at dawn and dusk.Many breeds of mosquitoes are more likely to bite at these times.People should also wear light,bright colors as dark colors attract the insects.Rubbing mosquito repellents（驱蚊剂）on exposed skin keeps the insects away for a time.Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective.Depending on the brand of repellent,the chemical keeps mosquitoes away for 5 to 13 hours.Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET,but they require more frequent application-every two hours—and in greater concentrations.Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities.Another chemical,permethrin,can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes.The chemical sticks to the fabric and will last through a few washings.Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is alsoavailable. The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings.Mosquito coil（圈，卷）also keep mosquitoes away.However,the smoke from them pollutes and can damage the lungs,so they should be used with care.When you're inside,simply plugging in some fans will keep mosquitoes away as they are weak fliers.Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites,so try several methods to see what works for you.56.which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Mosquitoes usually don't like dark colors.B.Mosquitoes don't like people with type O blood.C.It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing.D.It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off.57.What does the phrase ward off in Para 5 most probably mean?A.prevent fromB.take inC.break awayD.turn out58.What is the best title of the passage?A.How to get rid of mosquitoes.B.Keep mosquitoes away.C.Be aware of mosquitoes.D.Pay attention to mosquitoes.59.What does this article imply about mosquitoes?A.Electric fans can be used to blow mosquitoes away.B.People had better use the methods together to avoid mosquitoes.C.Mosquitoes would like to bite people at dawn or dusk.D.Different people should choose different ways to avoid mosquitoes.Section C (4%)Directions: Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.English is closely related to German,but it uses many words from French.B.English is a multi-culture,which has different background and people.C.This is partly because English includes words from so many languages.D.Over fifty countries have English as their official language and use it for higher education.E.Some English speakers use words only to fill pauses when they talk.F.People usually use some special words to avoid embarrassing occasions.Let's learn about EnglishIf you're reading this,you've probably already spent many hours studying English.But here are facts you may not know about the language:English is one of the most common languages in the world.Some experts estimate that English has about 339 million native speakers._60_.This does not include the United States,which has no official language.English is also the official language of the sky.That means all pilots use it on international flights._61_This is because a French-speaking ruler conquered England in the 11th century.English also includes words from many other languages.This is because people in British colonies spoke many languages.Words from many of those languages were added to English.Other words are added even today.As a result,English has one of the largest vocabularies of any language.You've probably noticed that English spelling can be hard to predict.For example,the long "e"sound can be spelled eight different ways.And the letters—"ough"—can be pronounced nine ways!_62_Spelling of English words often reflected their origins.The most common letter used in English is "e".But more words begin with "s" than any other in the alphabet.Most English words thyme with at least one other word.But month,orange,silver and purple don't thyme with anything._63_Some common examples are like,just and basically.These words are called 'crutch words',and it's best to avoid them.People who use too many crutch words sound like they aren't sure what they're trying to say.However much you know about English,there's always more to learn about this strange and interesting language.Ⅳ.Translation (15%) (3+3+4+5)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.64.现在看来,学生必须下定决心学好英语口语了。

She already had more clothes than she knew what to do with them, so he couldn’t get any kind of apparel. She never ate sweets, so candy was out of the question. What then? He had a very special reason for wanting to impress her with just the right gift. All girls liked perfume. That raised another problem, however. What kind did she prefer? He couldn’t ask her because that would ruin the surprise.At last the young man hit upon a brilliant idea. That afternoon, pretending to take his girlfriend’ fox terrier, little dog for a walk, the young man and the dog went directly to the perfume counter of the town’s biggest department store. Good! There was a large array of perfume. He beckoned a shop assistant, instructing her to take out a lot of perfume test paper and wave each kind under the dog’s nose. Nestled in the young man’s arms, the terrier began to be restless and bored as this seemingly pointless game went on. Then Fritz suddenly become frisky, wiggling in the young man’s arms and barking excitedly, as the assistant waved one piece of test paper under its nose.“I’ll take that one,” said the young man to the assistant. The price was high, but it was worth it, he thought.“My favorite perfume!” said the delighted girl the next evening as she unwrapped the package. “How did you know?” she asked, dabbing some perfume behind each ear.“Intuition(直觉), I guess.” Said the young man, deciding that it wasn’t exactly wrong to tell a lie under the circumstances.

The introduction of the Internet results in a new kind of newspaper. That is called digital newspaper. Unlike the traditional newspapers issued by using print on the paper, digital newspapers publish on the Internet. This kind of newspaper is not only the digital edition of papernewspapers. It contains more technical devices.Because the Internet creates a special condition, there are four key changes of digital newspapers compared with traditional newspapers. First of all, digital newspapers are not updated day by day. If any news happens, there will be correlative reports on the newspaper websites immediately. The instant update is the most important development of contemporary newspapers caused by the Internet. In addition, it can also include hyperlinks(超链接). It is another advantage of digital newspapers. Readers can access another concerned website through these hyperlinks. It is more convenient for readers to obtain detailed information. Some online newspaper websites have a BBS (Bulletin Board System), databases and other distinctive services. Thus different from traditional newspapers, digital newspapers can exchange information with readers. McAdams(1995) claimed that unlike traditional newspapers, the readers could expect some feedbacks of online newspapers. Another change is electronic newspapers can extend the scope(范围) traditional newspapers could cover. A case in point is there is a website which contains almost 200 newspapers from 55 countries. Anyone, who wants to see some newspapers are not published in his area, can just read them online. Ultimately, there have been some digital newspapers with Multi-media such as visible or audible reports in it. Anyhow, the changes of newspapers are obvious and available. Newspapers are and will be developed to more potential because of the introduction of the Internet.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements with NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS.)72. What leads to the birth of digital newspapers?73. The most important advantage of the digital newspaper is _____________________________.74. The underlined word “ultimately” in the passage probably means _______________________.75. What are the four key changes of digital newspapers?IV.

She already had more clothes than she knew what to do with them, so he couldn’t get any kind of apparel. She never ate sweets, so candy was out of the question. What then? He had a very special reason for wanting to impress her with just the right gift. All girls liked perfume. That raised another problem, however. What kind did she prefer? He couldn’t ask her because that would ruin the surprise.At last the young man hit upon a brilliant idea. That afternoon, pretending to take his girlfriend’ fox terrier, little dog for a walk, the young man and the dog went directly to the perfume counter of the town’s biggest department store. Good! There was a large array of perfume. He beckoned a shop assistant, instructing her to take out a lot of perfume test paper and wave each kind under the dog’s nose. Nestled in the young man’s arms, the terrier began to be restless and bored as this seemingly pointless game went on. Then Fritz suddenly become frisky, wiggling in the young man’s arms and barking excitedly, as the assistant waved one piece of test paper under its nose.“I’ll take that one,” said the young man to the assistant. The price was high, but it was worth it, he thought.“My favorite perfume!” said the delighted girl the next evening as she unwrapped the package. “How did you know?” she asked, dabbing some perfume behind each ear.“Intuition(直觉), I guess.” Said the young man, deciding that it wasn’t exactly wrong to tell a lie under the circumstances. One day, after they were married, he would admit that his intuition had really been a little dog named Fritz.65.Which of the following words best describes the young man?A.Kind-hearted.B.Curious.C.Creative.D.Mean.66.According to the story, the birthday present for the girl was actually decided on by _________.A.the young manB.the shop assistantC.the man’s intuitionD.the dog Fritz67.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the story?A.The young man wanted to give his girlfriend a pleasant surprise.B.The pet dog Fritz knew what the young man wanted very well.C.The kind of perfume the young man chose was expensive.D.The young man told a white lie about his final choice of the perfume.(B)Which tablet(平板) computer should YOU be buying: T here’s a style to suit everyone .Best for young childrenLeapPad Explorer 2, £68Aimed at children betweenthree and nine (though a nine-year-old might find it a little simple), itcomes in pink or blue and with fivebuilt-in education games (you can buy more).

The introduction of the Internet results in a new kind of newspaper. That is called digital newspaper. Unlike the traditional newspapers issued by using print on the paper, digital newspapers publish on the Internet. This kind of newspaper is not only the digital edition of papernewspapers. It contains more technical devices.Because the Internet creates a special condition, there are four key changes of digital newspapers compared with traditional newspapers. First of all, digital newspapers are not updated day by day. If any news happens, there will be correlative reports on the newspaper websites immediately. The instant update is the most important development of contemporary newspapers caused by the Internet. In addition, it can also include hyperlinks(超链接). It is another advantage of digital newspapers. Readers can access another concerned website through these hyperlinks. It is more convenient for readers to obtain detailed information. Some online newspaper websites have a BBS (Bulletin Board System), databases and other distinctive services. Thus different from traditional newspapers, digital newspapers can exchange information with readers. McAdams(1995) claimed that unlike traditional newspapers, the readers could expect some feedbacks of online newspapers. Another change is electronic newspapers can extend the scope(范围) traditional newspapers could cover. A case in point is there is a website which contains almost 200 newspapers from 55 countries. Anyone, who wants to see some newspapers are not published in his area, can just read them online. Ultimately, there have been some digital newspapers with Multi-media such as visible or audible reports in it. Anyhow, the changes of newspapers are obvious and available. Newspapers are and will be developed to more potential because of the introduction of the Internet.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements with NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS.)72. What leads to the birth of digital newspapers?73. The most important advantage of the digital newspaper is _____________________________.74. The underlined word “ultimately” in the passage probably means _______________________.75. What are the four key changes of digital newspapers?IV.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Twenty yeas ago only a very small number of people had the skills and equipment to make fake money. Today computer, copier and printer technology is so advancing that almost anyone can make fake money. With the new technology there is a new kind of casual faking machine. The number of bills made by casual fakers on their home and office computer is growing fast. In fact, this number has doubled every year since 1989! There is no way to 32 faking completely. But the government has recently found a few ways to make casual faking very 33 .One way is to put very ,very small words, called microprints, in 34 places on the bill. The words are only 6/1000 inch. No one can read them without a magnifying glass, and they are too small to come out 35 on a copier. If some one copies a bill that has microprints, the microprints words on the bill will only be black lines.Another way to stop people from making fake money on their home computers is to use special colour-changing ink. Money printed with this ink will look green from one __36 and yellow from another. Home computers cannot use colour-changing ink.

Still, with all the scolding and coldness at home, he was a sweet and gentle child.I had not noticed Mark particularly until he began staying after class each day to help me straighten up the room. We did this quietly and comfortably, not speaking much, but enjoying thesolitude (幽静) of that hour of the day.I explained how he had been my best helper. “I was making you a surprise,”he whispered confidentially. “It’s for Christmas.”Finally came the last school day before Christmas. Mark crept slowly into the room late that afternoon with his hands concealing (隐藏) something behind his back. “I have your present,”he said timidly when I looked up. He held out his hands, and there lying in his small palms was a tiny wooden box.“It’s beautiful, Mark. Is there something in it?”I asked opening the top to look inside.“Oh you can’t see what’s in it,”he replied, “and you can’t touch it, or taste it or feel it, but mother always said it makes you feel good all the time, warm on cold nights, and safe when you’re all alone.”I gazed into the empty box. “What is it Mark,”I asked gently, “that will make me feel so good?”“It’s love,”he whispered softly, “and mother always said it’s best when you give it away.”And he turned and quietly left the room. It was the best present I had never had before.59.

If they’re working for an organization you’re interested in, then ask them to talk with someone on the inside to see if there’s a job opening underway. And since they work there, they not only can help you find a job butbe a reference for you as well. Having someone in the inside is always nice when searching for a job.Job search engines are other ways to find a job.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and, old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. What’s more, life is always giving new things to the child—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do something, or being punished for what he has wrongly done.When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work hard if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.( ) 51. According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that _____________.A.life for a child is fairly easy.B. a child is always loved whatever he doesC.if much is given to a child, he must do something in return.D.only children are interested in life.( ) 52. The main idea of the passage is that______________.A.life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains.B.young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard.C.childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s time.D.one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life.( ) 53. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss_______.A.examples of successful old men.B.how to build up one’s position in society.C.joys and pains of old people.D.what to do when one has problems in life.(B)The market is a concept. If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbor and some to the local manager of the supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them.If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steel worker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market.When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas station and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying you in the labor market.The market may be something abstract(抽象的). But for each person or business who is making and selling something, it is very concrete. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won’t be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It is telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesn’t want you to do.( ) 54. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A.Selling and BuyingB.Everything you do is producing for the market.C.What is the market?D.What the market can do for you.( ) 55. All of the following acts are producing for the market except_______.A. working in a bankB. attending a night schoolC. printing a bookD. growing beans for sale( ) 56. You are buying from the market when you ________.A.borrow a book from the library.B.walk to the seaside for a holiday.C.look after your children.D.dine at restaurant.( ) 57. The word “concrete” in the last paragraph may most probably mean______.A. seriousB. importantC. necessaryD. real( ) 58. In what way is the market very concrete for each person or business who is making and selling something?A.It tells you what to produce.B.It provides you with everything you need.C.It tells you how to grow tomatoes.D.It helps you save money.(C)Some people have the feeling that nothing can be done about their poor reading ability. They feel hopeless about it. Can you learn to read better, or must you agree that nothing can be done about it.To be sure, people are different. You can not do everything as well as certain other people do. If all the students in a class tried out for basketball, some would be very good players; others would be very poor; and many would be in between. But even the very poor players can become much better players if they are guided in the right way, and with plenty of practice. It is the same with reading. Some seem to enjoy reading and to read well without any special help. Others find reading a slow and tiring job. In between, there are all degrees of reading ability.Many experiments have shown that just about every poor reader can improve his reading ability. In these experiments, the poor readers were given tests of reading ability. After some of the causes of their poor reading were discovered, they were given special instruction and practice in reading. After a few months, another test of the same kind was given. In nearly all cases, these people had raised their reading scores.( ) 59.

There’s only one place, and that’s Hollywood, in California. The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie companies in the USA.A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. Hollywood isn’t quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Movie-makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones.The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. Thetheatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. But older people mostly stay home to watch series, like Dynasty have become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies. These “soap opera”, as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.Though it is soap operas that are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in business, big films are still being made in America. But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood. New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well. Movie-makers have realized that they don’t need Hollywood any more—modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. Other states, especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California. They are offering better working conditions and lower costs.But Hollywood is fighting back. The state of California is trying hard to keep its best-known industry.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements with NO MORE THAN 13 WORDS)62.

As the death toll rose — from dozens in March to more thanendangered species died across the border in northwestern Zimbabwe in a three-week period, with one more found in November. “It was very quick,” says Chris Foggin, a vet who examined the elephant carcasses (尸体) in Zimbabwe. “That was so 24 .”African savanna elephants 25 to this area represent the majority of what’s left of that species. Around 350,000 African savanna elephants remain, and given the already significant 26 to their survival, a new disease could be what tips that last domino towards extinction.Now, new research published recently in Nature Communications points to a bacterium not 27 found in elephants of any species, called Bisgaard taxon 45, that causes a massive systemic blood infection called septicemia. “It’s a disease we know can kill a reasonable number of elephants in a short space of time,” says Foggin, co-leader of the study. And “it has the potential to kill a lot more given the right circumstances.” What those are, however, remains unknown — yet it’s pressing to find out. Aerial population surveys in KAZA in 2022 found a high number of new elephant carcasses. The examination 28 the elephants had enlarged livers and spleens, as well as internal bleeding in multiple organs— signs of septicemia (败血症).However, scientists still don’t know how widespread Bisgaard taxon 45 is, or if the bacteria 29 as a normal group of bacteria within elephants and other animals. “We’re assuming it’s probably present more 30 than we’ve known, without causing disease, but we don’t have proof of that,” Foggin says. It’s possible environmental stressors, such as heat and lack of food and water, may have led Bisgaard taxon 45 to multiply and cause the septicemia in the Zimbabwe elephants. With much of Africa predicted to get hotter and drier, the bacterium “could cause much worse mortalities down the line,” says Foggin. That’s why, he says, “it is important to 31 monitoring elephant deaths and see if it’s responsible.”三、完形填空The Pop-up IglooPolar bears are warm-blooded animals with heavy fat and fur that can survive in freezing Arctic temperatures. They have two types of fur—the long oily hairs and short thick hairs. By 32 the characteristics of these two hairs and their black skin underneath, the polar bears can keep themselves warm. 33 by polar bears, a team of students from the Royal Danish Academy designed a pop-up igloo(弹出式冰屋)—an emergency tent that might make survival in sub-zero areas much more manageable.Led by Henry Glogau, the team said that their design aims to 34 those lost or stranded in extreme conditions. With little visibility and no phone coverage, people may face severe 35 while waiting for rescue in cold polar areas. Rather than fight against the extreme conditions, the team looked to use them to its 36 . “Inspired by snow caves and the conventional winter-used tents, we treat snow as a(n) 37 material rather than a burden,” the team told Vigour Times website.The pop-up igloo adopts a mylar(聚酯薄膜) material, which works 38 to polar bears’ skin. Besides their thick fat and fur, polar bears have black skin underneath, which is ideal for absorbing rays from the Arctic sun to keep themselves warm. The mylar material gives 39 to its inhabitants in the same way by reflecting sunlight into the space inside the tent. The pop-up igloo also features an origami-like(像折纸的) design, which helps to 40 the snow and secure the tent. The origami pockets create areas where snow can41 on the outside. It prevents heat from escaping from the tent, while holding the tent to the ground. Researchers ensured that the tent could withstand the weight of a 70kg human standing on top to remain 42 in extreme conditions. This adds another 43 layer to everything inside.The team put the tent through 44 testing for one month in Alaska to see its capability. The results showed that at 11.8 to 15 inches of snow cover, a 37℃ 45 in temperature between inside and outside could be maintained on average. In the future, the pop-up igloos could be 46 along hiking routes in cold areas like the Arctic, where they could be set up in seconds when needed.32．A．gathering B．combining C．comparing D．distinguishing 33．A．Fascinated B．Encouraged C．Threatened D．Inspired 34．A．guide B．comfort C．shelter D．delight 35．A．danger B．boredom C．confusion D．damage 36．A．advantage B．challenge C．defence D．convenience 37．A．original B．novel C．creative D．building 38．A．efficiently B．closely C．similarly D．cleverly 39．A．rays B．light C．heat D．glow 40．A．estimate B．trap C．exclude D．dissolve 41．A．pile up B．melt down C．break down D．last out 42．A．concrete B．everlasting C．stable D．elegant 43．A．heavy B．protective C．external D．flexible 44．A．repetitive B．eventual C．general D．domestic 45．A．fall B．increase C．decline D．difference 46．A．exposed B．restored C．recycled D．placed四、阅读理解“It’s a windy day in Laguna San Ignacio, and the waves seem to come from all directions,” said Sara Clemence in Bloomberg Businessweek. My children and I are riding on an 18-foot boat—small enough that we can reach down into the water if a gray whale swims up alongside. And then we see what we’ve come for: a heart-shaped shower of water and a dark mass rushing below it. As instructed, we splash(溅泼) the water strongly to signal thehuge whale, which turns out to be a mother with her weeks-old baby. The baby soon swims beneath our boat, emerges to blow mist in my face, then “lies onto its side like a 2-ton puppy.” Leaning down, I touched its skin gently. “It feels electric. Also, a bit like petting a hard-boiled egg.”San Ignacio is one of very few places where a person can pet a whale. The whales come each year to the coast of Baja California to give birth and to mate. If you’re lucky, you can “shake hands with a leathery fin(鳍)” or even “plant a kiss on a cold, salty cheek.” I usually worry about such interactions, because wild creatures can become deeply stressed by human contact. But boat numbers are strictly limited in these protected waters. And any whale that approaches a boat does so on its own terms. Like that baby whale: “We see him a few times, and he seems to like being petted and splashed.”So we are two species, connecting through touch, but also through eye contact: “More than once, after nosing around our boat, a young gray whale turns on its side so one dark, baseball-size eye is looking up at us.” Whalers used to call gray whales “devil fish” because these magnificent creatures turn violent when threatened—“or, say, when their babies are harmed.” That makes it feel even more of a blessing when, on our third day there, a large mama whale approaches the boat. “I’m splashing when I feel her nose press up into my hand.” Though she’s “wiser and apparently more alert” than her child, “she still decides to trust us.”47．According to the passage, people can NOT interact with a whale by ________.A．splashing water to it B．gently touching its skinC．swimming alongside it D．looking at it in the eye48．The underlined phrase in paragraph 2 means that the whale ________.A．is mad with too many visitorsB．is willing to be petted by people on the boatC．can interact with people based on its likesD．can decide its preferred swimming route49．Why does the author consider it “a blessing” when a large mama whale approaches the boat?A．Because she is smarter than her child and better at interacting with people.B．Because she believes in people and will not turn violent if her baby is harmed.C．Because a whale as large as this one is rare to see.D．Because she trusts people despite her concerns about her child’s safety.50．What is the best title for this passage?Communicate Fluently Effectively in English“The Cities are My Classrooms!”Why spend your time in a classroom when you can invest your time studying during breakfast or dinner?And why stay inside in the afternoon when you can study by the beach or in a bar?That’s right. That’s the way we teach.‘Active Learning’ is the best way to learn, practice, and perfect your English.“Walk and Talk English Eat and Drink English!”51．Who might be the target audience for this advertisement?A．people who who’d like to learn English while travelling.B．Inland travelers who want to talk with the locals in England pubs.C．England students who want to improve their English to be admitted to Oxford.D．people who want to improve their English through virtual tourism. 52．Which learning experience is NOT provided by English 4 Professionals?A．An individualized learning experience which suits the learner’s schedule.B．An immersed learning experience where the learner studies in famous universities.C．A cultural learning experience where the learner experiences European cultures.D．A relaxing learning experience where the learner can have fun while learning.53．If you sign up for the program, you are most likely to be studying ________.A．on the MIT campus lawn B．in Windsor Castle in EnglandC．on La Concha Beach in Spain D．in an English pub near your houseIn spite of “endless talk of difference”, American society is an amazing machine forthe casualness and lack of respect seen in popular culture. People are absorbed into “a culture of consumption” launched by the 19th-century department stores that offered a wide range of goods in an elegant atmosphere. Instead of fancy shops catering to the upper-class, these were stores “anyone could enter, regardless of class or background.” This turned shopping into a public and democratic (民主的) act. The mass media, advertising and sports are other forces for homogenization.Immigrants are quickly adapting to this common culture, which may not be altogether elevating but is hardly poisonous. Writing for the National Immigration Forum, Gregory Rodriguez reports that today’s immigration is neither at remarkable levels nor resistant to assimilation (融合). In 1998 immigrants were 9.8 percent of population; in 1900, 13.6 percent. In the 10 years prior to 1990, 3.1 immigrants arrived for every 1,000 residents; in the 10 years prior to 1890, 9.2 for every 1,000. Now, consider three indicators of assimilation — language, home ownership and intermarriage.The 1990 Census revealed that “a majority of immigrants from each of the fifteen most common countries of origin spoke English ‘well’ or ‘very well’ after ten years of residence.” The children of immigrants tend to be bilingual (双语的) and good at English. “By the third generation, the original language is lost in the majority of immigrant families.” Hence, America is described as a “graveyard” for languages. By 1996 foreign-born immigrants who had arrived before 1970 had a home ownership rate of 75.6 percent, higher than the 69.8 percent rate among native-born Americans. Foreign-born Asians and Hispanics “have higher rates of intermarriage than do U.S.-born whites and blacks.” By the third generation, one third of Hispanic women are married to non-Hispanics, and 41 percent of Asian-American women are married to non-Asians.Rodriguez notes that children in remote villages around the world are fans of superstars like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks, yet “some Americans fear that immigrants living within the United States are not influenced by the nation’s assimilative power.”Are there divisive issues and anger in America? Indeed. It is big enough to have a bit of everything. But particularly when viewed against America’s troubled past, today’s social Indicators hardly suggest a dark and worsening social environment.54．The underlined phrase in paragraph 1 probably means ________.A．making people adapt to American consumption cultureB．encouraging people to embrace a democratic lifestyleC．encouraging people to stick to their own ideas and principlesD．making people behave more similarly in many aspects55．According to the passage, what can be inferred about the immigrants now in the U.S.?A．Their adaptation to the common culture is quick but harmful to the society.B．The scale of immigration is not big and the immigrants welcome American culture.C．Their children are good at both English and their original language.D．Hispanic and Asian-American women both prefer to marry native-born Americans. 56．The author mentions Arnold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks in paragraph 4 to________.A．provide examples of successful immigrantsB．suggest the weakness of America’s assimilative powerC．show the powerful influence of American cultureD．prove their popularity at home and abroad57．What is the author’s general attitude towards the cultural assimilation in American society?A．Optimistic.B．Concerned.C．Neutral.D．Negative.Do Lobsters Feel Pain?The traditional method for cooking a lobster — boiling it alive — raises the question of whether or not lobsters feel pain. 58 . Lobsters decay very quickly after they die, and eating a dead lobster increases the risk of food-borne illness and reduces the quality of its flavor. However, if lobsters are capable of feeling pain, these cooking methods raise ethical questions for chefs and lobster eaters alike.Until the 1980s, scientists were trained to ignore animal pain, based on the belief that the ability to feel pain was associated only with higher consciousness. However, today, scientists view humans as a species of animal. Still, scientists disagree over whether or not lobsters feel pain. Lobsters have a peripheral system (外围系统) like humans, but instead of a single brain, they possess segmented ganglia (分段神经节). Because of these differences, some researchers argue lobsters are too dissimilar to vertebrates (脊椎动物) to feel pain and that their reaction to negative stimuli is simply a reflex. 59 . Lobsters guard their injuries, learn to avoid dangerous situations, and respond to anesthetics (麻醉剂). For these reasons, most scientists believe that injuring a lobster (e. g. storing it on ice or boiling it alive) causes physical pain.60 . Currently, boiling lobsters alive is banned in Switzerland, New Zealand, and the Italian city Reggio Emilia. Even in locations where boiling lobsters remains legal, many restaurants choose more human e methods, both to calm customer concerns and because the chefs believe stress negatively affects the flavor of the meat.While we cannot know definitively whether or not lobsters feel pain, research indicates that it’s likely. So, if you want to enjoy a lobster dinner, how should you go about it? The most human e tool for cooking a lobster is the CrustaStun. This device kills a lobster by an electric shock, making it unconscious in less than half a second, after which it can be cut apart or boiled. In contrast, it takes about 2 minutes for a lobster to die from immersion in boiling water. 61 . Some restaurants place a lobster in a plastic bag and place it in the freezer for a couple of hours, during which time the lobster loses consciousness and dies.A．Nonetheless, lobsters do satisfy all of the criteria for a pain responseB．This cooking technique is used in many restaurants to improve humans’ dining experienceC．Due to growing evidence that the lobsters may feel pain, it is now becoming illegal to boil lobsters alive or keep them on iceD．This method is probably the most humane option for killing a lobster before cooking and eating itE．Evidence shows that many species like lobsters are capable of learning and possess some level of self-awarenessF．Unfortunately, this technique is too expensive for most restaurants to afford五、语法填空填空）63．you decide upon will not influence me, for I am not involved in your project. （用适当的词填空）64．Is this classroom you have your chemistry lessons the one you like the most? （用适当的词填空）65．I doubt the scientific breakthrough will have a profound impact on the field of medicine. （用适当的词填空）66．The police offer a reward to finds the missing luggage of this old lady.（用适当的词填空）67．do you think would be the best place to celebrate our anniversary, a restaurant or a bar? （用适当的词填空）68．The moment the first rays of sunlight painted the sky signaled the beginning of a new day.

The trees help to stop the spread of the desert. It takes between 40 to 60 years for an argan tree to become an adult. And scientists say that the tree may live for 200 to 400 years. But this long growing time can be a problem. When someone cuts down an argan tree, it takes a very long time for another one to grow and replace it.The women in Morocco make a special product from the trees: argan oil. They gather the fruit from the ground. Then, they take the seeds (籽) out of the fruit. Whenthese seeds dry, they pound them between two stones to remove the oil.In the past, the women produced argan oil to use in cooking, on their skin, and to treat sicknesses. In the 1990s people in Europe began to learn about the special qualities of the oil, so the production of argan oil started to change. Many companies in the West moved to Morocco and used chemicals (化学物质) to get the oil out of the seeds, pushing out the native people and also making the argan forest suffering. So the Moroccan government started to help fix this problem. First, they talked to UNESCO. In 1998, UNESCO recognized the argan forest as a special place that the world will protect. The second step was to encourage the women in Morocco to form cooperatives (合作社). And the European Union declared that argan oil must be produced by these cooperatives.Today there are over 50 argan oil cooperatives run by women in Southwestern Morocco. These cooperatives not only give women a way to help support their families but also care for the existing forest and plant more argan trees. They make sure that the argan forest will exist for many more generations. Argan oil is more than just something to eat or rub on your skin. It is a product that makes a difference.5. What’s good about the argan tree?A. It stops the soil from blowing away.B. It can live in a very wet place.C. It has a short growing time.D. It doesn’t break easily.6. Why did the Western companies go to Morocco?A. To learn from the Moroccan women.B. To learn about the argan tree.C. To trade with the natives.D. To produce argan oil.7. Why does argan oil make a difference?A. It helps the people in Morocco.B. It helps the world get to know Africa.C. It helps the women get their equal rights.D. It helps improve Morocco’s international position.CWhat is the most popular way to travel in the whole world，not counting a human being's two legs？You say by car？No．Train？Wrong again．Airplane？I'm sorry，but you're not even close．The most popular way of going from one place to another is by bicycle．And it is a surprise to most Americans．After all，we see thousands of cars each day．We don't see nearly as many bikes．In the United States most bike riders are either young people or adults bicycling for exercise．About nine million bikes are sold in America each year．Nearly three million are sold to adults．The rest are to children．But in the rest of the world，far more people use the bike as their main way of traveling．They ride bikes to work，to school，and to stores．Bicycles have been around for a long time-about 300 years．You would not like to ride around on those early bikes，though．They didn't have any pedals （脚蹬）．The riders had to push along with their feet．And this bike only went straight ahead．There was no way to turn the front wheel．If the rider wanted to change direction，he or she had to get off and move the bicycle．When pedals were put on the front wheels，riding became easier．The most popular kind of bike in the late 1800s had a very high front wheel and a small back wheel．It was a long fall to the ground! Another problem was that there were no rubber tires （橡胶轮胎）．It's no wonder that one bike was called the" Boneshaker．"Then in the 1880s，air-filled rubber tires were put on the bicycle's wheels．Since then the bicycle has not changed very much．Of course bikes come in different shapes and colors now，but the main design is still the same．8．Compared with those in America，bikes in the rest of the world ．A．are much cheaperB．enjoy greater popularityC．are mainly used by childrenD．are mainly used to do exercise9．Why did people dislike riding early bikes？A．They were too large．B．They were dangerous．C．They were hard to control．D．They were too high for many people．10．The underlined word" Boneshaker" in the last paragraph shows the bike was ．A．old B．Slow C．broken D．uncomfortable11．The author wrote this text mainly to ．A．warn readers about bicycle safetyB．introduce the new shapes of bicyclesC．encourage readers to bicycle for exerciseD．inform readers about the history of bicycles．DI was born in Thailand, where I feel at home. I am used to jumping on to a song taow (red taxi), and squeezing (挤过) in between two strangers. I am used to bargaining at the market to get a shirt that I like. I love telling bilingual (双语的) jokes and I am used to the surprised looks I get from the Thais when I can speak their language fluently.Every two years my family goes to America for the summer, and every two years my world is turned upside down. The prices of everything are three times what they were in Thailand, but there is the sweet drink Dr. Pepper! And Bluebell Ice-cream! And everything you could imagine! I am amazed at it all, but the biggest change for me is the people. There are white people everywhere. I am not tall but average (中等的), my yellow hair is no longer out of place, and speaking English no longer draws looks. I should feel comfortable. I’m not out of place anymore, and nobody is looking at me, but I feel like they are. Now I feel out of place and different. I’m not used to giving people handshakes and hugs when I meet them for the first time. I get looks when I have trouble figuring out how much money to pay. I know different music, different places, and different fashion. I can’t understand these peoplewho have never left their town or city.Still, there are quite a few perks about living overseas. I get to meet people from all over the world, and I know how to adjust to (适应) different cultures and places.I have been to places most people see only in geography books. Still, being so different makes it hard to know who you are. I’m not Thai, but I am not American either. I am a mix of both cultures, a third culture kid.12.When the Thais give the author surprised looks, she feels _____.A．upset B．strangeC．normal D．different13.When the author returns to America, _____.A．she makes more friendsB．she becomes more politeC．she can’t find what she needsD．she is like a fish out of water14.The underlined word “perks” in the last paragraph can be replaced by _____. A．reasons B．problems C．advantages D．suggestions15.In this text, the author mainly wants to describe _____.A．her different lifestylesB．a kind of culture shockC．a feeling of lonelinessD．her ability to face difficulties第二节7选5（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。
