第三部分阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
For many students in the UK today, deciding whether or not to go to university can be as much about affordability as it is about ambition and aspiration.
In the past, students in the UK could apply to a university or college. They were sure that even if they came from a low income family, their tuition fees and some of their living (or maintenance) costs would be covered by a local authority grant(拨款). A university education was, in a financial sense, open to all and the number of students attending university grew yearly.
Sadly, it seems, those days are long gone. The turning point came in 1998, when the Labour Government introduced tuition fees of ￡1,000 a year and, instead of giving students a maintenance grant, asked them to cover their own living expenses with a repayable student loan. Only students on the lowest incomes were entitled to a grant.
The flood gates had been opened. As time passed, the ceiling on tuition fees rose, and although applicants from Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales still qualified for varying levels of subsidy(补贴), by 2009/10 students in England often found themselves facing tuition fees over￡3,000 a year.
In 2011 the Government announced that, from 2012, universities could charge fees of up to ￡9,000 a year. Although the Government sweetened the pill by stating that postgraduates did not have to begin repaying their student loans until they were earning more than ￡21,000 a year, the news created over-dissatisfaction. Many students argued that it was unfair that students should have to begin their work
life loaded with huge debt, while others complained that the changes would bring back a class divide to university education. These views were reflected in the number of students applying for a university place, which by January 2012 fell by more than 22,000. The Universities Minister, David Willetts, stood by the decision to increase tuition fees, saying that they would not “put universities’ finance on a bearable footing” and that they would accelerate “a stronger focus on high quality teaching.”
56. We can put the sentence “But the biggest change was still to come” at t he beginning of Paragraph _________.
A. 2
B. 3
C. 4
D. 5
57. What attitude does the author have towards the change about university education fees?
A. Supportive.
B. Opposed.
C. Indifferent.
D. Neutral.
B
On December 14, NASA (National Aeronautics and Space) blasted a small but mighty telescope into space. The telescope is called WISE and is about as wide around as a trashcan. Don’t let its small size fool you: WISE has a powerful digital camera, and it will be taking pictures of some the wildest objects in the known universe, including asteroids, faint stars, blazing galaxies and giant clouds of dust where planets and stars are born.
“I’m very excited because we’re going to be seeing parts of the universe that we haven’t seen before,”said Ned Wright, a scientist who directs the WISE project.
Since arriving in space, the WISE telescope has been circling the Earth, held by gravity in a polar orbit(this means it crosses close to the north and south poles with each lap(一圈).Its camera is pointed outward, away from the Earth, and WISE will snap a picture of a different part of the sky every 11 minutes. After six months it will have taken pictures across the entire sky.
The pictures taken by WISE won’t be like everyday digital photographs, however. WISE stands for “Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer.”As its name suggests, the WISE camera takes pictures of features that give off infrared radiation (红外线辐射).
Radiation is energy that travels as a wave. Visible light, including the familiar spectrum of Light(光谱) that becomes visible in a rainbow, is an example of radiation. When an ordinary digital camera takes a picture of a tree, for example, it receives the waves of visible light that are reflected off the tree. When these waves enter the camera through the lens, they’re processed by the camera, which then puts the image together.
Waves of infrared radiation are longer than waves of visible light, so ordinary digital cameras don't see them, and neither do the eyes of human beings. Although
invisible to the eye, longer infrared radiation can be detected as warmth by the skin.
That’s a key idea to why WISE will be able to see things other telescopes can’t. Not everything in the universe shows up in visible light. Asteroids, for example, are giant rocks that float through space—but they absorb most of the light that reaches them. They don't reflect light, so they are difficult to see. But they do give off infrared radiation, so an infrared telescope like WISE will be able to produce images of them. During its mission WISE will take pictures of hundreds of thousands of asteroids.
Brown dwarfs(褐矮星)are another kind of deep-space object that will show up in WISE's pictures. These objects are “failed” stars—which means they are not massive enough to jump start the same kind of reactions that power stars such as the sun. Instead, brown dwarfs simply shrink and cool down. They’re so dim that they’re almost impossible to see with visible light, but in the infrared spectrum they glow.
58. What is so special about WISE?
A. Its digital camera can help astronomers to see the unknown space.
B. It is as small as a trashcan.
C. It is small in size but carries a large camera.
D. Never before has a telescope carried a digital camera in space.
59. The camera on WISE ________.
A. is not different from an ordinary camera
B. does not see infrared radiation while the ordinary camera does
C. reflects light that human eyes can see
D. catches the infrared radiation while the ordinary camera does not
60. Which of the following is NOT correct about “asteroids”according to Paragraph 7?
A. Asteroids do not reflect light that reaches them.
B. Asteroids float through space giving off visible light.
C. It is difficult to take asteroids’ pictures by ordinary cameras.
D. The WISE telescope can take pictures of asteroids.
61. What is implied in the last paragraph?
A. Brown dwarfs give off visible light.
B. Brown dwarfs are power stars like the sun.
C. Brown dwarfs give off infrared radiation.
D. Brown dwarfs are impossible to see with the WISE telescope.
C
Climate change could affect food supplies, water resources, human health and homes.
If greenhouse gas emissions keep increasing at the current rate, global temperature is expected to rise between 2°C and 6°C by 2100. This doesn’t sound much, but a 5°C change is the difference between the current warm period and an ice age.
Global warming leads to other changes in the climate: melting ice, more evaporation(蒸发), changes in geographical patterns of rainfall, heavier downpours separated by longer dry spells, more frequent heat waves, more intense hurricanes, and sea level rise.
These changes could affect crop growth as drought, increased evaporation and shrinking glaciers(冰川) disrupt water supply. Some crops could suffer heat stress. While there may be benefits in some regions, overall climate change is likely to have a negative impact on global food supplies. The impacts of climate change on agriculture will vary widely around the world. A global temperature rise of 1–2 °C is expected to increase food production in some regions, particularly mid-latitude areas. But in tropical regions even a small amount of warming could reduce crop yields.
A temperature rise of 3 °C or more could threaten global food resources, as all regions are likely to experience negative impacts overall.
Freshwater resources could also diminish, especially in tropical regions, as rain patterns change and evaporation speeds up. Some communities could lose essential melt water as glaciers disappear, while more intense rainfall and hurricanes could cause more flooding, leading to water pollution and bacterial diseases such as cholera(霍乱) becoming more widespread.
Climate change could lead to a variety of health impacts—both positive and negative. On the negative side, scientists anticipate more cases of malnutrition, heatstroke and waterborne diseases such as cholera. Although some populations will benefit from a reduced risk of cold-related illnesses such as hypothermia, overall a warming world is likely to have negative effects on human health.
Scientists also expect damage to homes and buildings from more intense hurricanes, heavier rainfall and rising sea levels. Climate change is likely to affect infrastructure by increasing the risk of both coastal and inland flooding around the world, owing to a combination of heavier rainfall, rising sea levels and increased storm damage. Homes and buildings could also be affected by the thawing of frozen ground and greater risk of forest fires.
The consequences of climate change will have an impact on people around the world.
62. With global temperature increased by 1–2 °C, _______.
A. crops yields could be increased in tropical regions
B. food production could rise throughout the world
C. chances are that food resources would be threatened overall
D. mid-latitude areas are likely to experience positive impacts
63. The underlined wo rd “hypothermia” in Paragraph 6 possibly means a serious medical condition caused by_______.
A. lower temperature than normal
B. higher temperature than normal
B. more cases of malnutrition D. cases of waterborne diseases
64. According to the passage, climate change has both positive and negative effects on ______.
A. food supplies and buildings
B. freshwater resources and homes
C. human health and food supplies
D. human health and homes
65. The passage is mainly meant to tell us _______.
A. how global warming leads to changes in the climate
B. how climate change affects people worldwide
C. why climate change affects our crop growth
D. why climate change contributes to all bad results
D
These young men① were a different kind of prisoner from those we had seen before. They were brave, hostile(怀敌意的) and ＿1__ ; they would not take orders, and shouted “Amandla!” at every opportunity. Their instinct was to confront(对抗) rather than cooperate. The authorities② did not know how to handle them, and they turned the island upside down.
During the Rivonia Trial, I remarked to a security policeman that if the government did not reform itself, the freedom fighters who would take our place③ would some-day make the authorities miss us. That day had indeed come on Robben Island.
In these young men we saw the angry revolutionary spirit of the times. I had had some warning. On a visit with Winnie a few months before, she had managed to tell me through our coded conversation that there was a rising class of discontented youths④ who were violent and Africanist in beliefs. She said they were changing the nature of the struggle and that I should be aware of them.
The new prisoners were shocked by what they considered the inhuman conditions of the island, and said that they could not understand how we could live in such a way. We told them that they should have seen the island in 1964. But they were almost as sceptical of us as they were of the authorities. They chose to ignore our calls for discipline and thought our advice weak and unassertive (不果断).
It was obvious that they regarded us, the Rivonia Trialists⑤, as moderates⑥(温和派). After so many years of being branded a radical(激进的) revolutionary, to be seen as a moderate[ was a novel and not altogether pleasant feeling. I knew that I could react in one of two ways: I could scold them for their disrespect or I could listen to what they were saying. I chose the latter. Then some of these men, such
as Strini Moodle y of the South African Students’ Organization and Saths Cooper of the Black People’s Convention, came into our section, __2__. Shortly after their arrival on the island, the commanding officer came and asked me as a favour to address the young men. He wanted me to tell them to behave themselves, to recognize the fact that they were in prison and to accept the discipline of prison life．I told him that I was not prepared to do that. Under the circumstances, they would have regarded me as a follower of the authorities.
(adapted from “Long walk to freedom: The autobiography of Nelson Mandela”)
66. Which of the following words fits best in Blank 1？
A. mild
B. aggressive
C. friendly
D. optimistic
67. We may infer from the passage all of the following EXCEPT that __________.
A. an angry massive revolution was probably on its way
B. the author’s activities were strictly monitored
C. many were concerned about the influence these young men could make
D. these young men were willing to cooperate in face of difficulties
68. Sentences are missing in Blank 2 regarding the author’s following reactions. Which of the following reactions do you think he would have?
A. I asked them to tell us about their movement and beliefs.
B. I reported to the officers about their dissatisfaction.
C. I tried to calm them down and talked them into behaving.
D. I just turned a deaf ear to the young men.
69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Conditions of the prison were far more unsatisfactory in 1964.
B. Officers of the prison turned the island upside down to discipline the young men.
C. The Rivonia Trialists felt honored to be regarded as moderates.
D. The young men regarded the author as a follower of the authorities.

A. ①②

每个空格只写一个单词。

Problem: On the scale of problems, “pictures of food on the Internet” is firmly first-world. And that is almost certainly a too-generous definition of “problem.” When it comes to photographing and putting your dinner on line, I say live and let live, you know? Maybe your salad was particularly inviting and pleasing that night,
and I, too, have spent many an hour click ing “random” on Smitten Kitchen and salivating(流口水).
But I assume if you’re making the effort to arrange your food artfully and preserve its memory in a digital archive, you must... like food. And want it to taste good. A recent study published in the Journal of Consumer Psychology suggests that spending time focusing on images of food makes the food itself less satisfying.
Methodology: The researchers assumed that imagining enjoying something might lead to satiation—the feeling that makes the second piece of cake taste not-quite-as-good as the first. To test this, they had some people participate in two experiments that they were told were separate —one in which they rated how appetizing different photos of food looked, and one in which they ate some peanuts and rated how much they enjoyed them.
A separate group of people did the same experiment again, but in the photo-rating portion, some were asked to rate how appetizing the food was or to choose a preference between two foods, and some were asked to rate the brightness of the photo itself.
Results: The more photos of food people looked at, the less they enjoyed the peanuts—if they were looking at photos of salty food. People who looked carefully at images of sweets enjoyed the peanuts more, suggesting that imagination causes satiation only if you’re i magining a similar food. In the second experiment, participants who focused on the brightness of the photos were able to enjoy the peanuts more than those who were thinking about the deliciousness of foods while they looked at the images.
Implications: You’ll probably enjoy your food more if you don’t take a picture of it, or scroll through images of cookies at work and then eat one when you get home. This also has potential implications for advertisers, who may unknowingly be giving away satiation for free when they show images of chicken wings or whatever in front of us all day long. But luckily the study provides a hint: Try not to think about the food’s taste while you take a photo— just focus on your composition.

Recently many advisers have called for reforms of the English language testing system to make it more effective in developing actual language ability.
“Currently, the English testing system in China puts too much pressure on students to get high marks and ignores the development of their comprehensive（综合的）language abilities,” they said.
“Some changes in the evaluation procedures of English examinations are necessary for the sound development of the national English education system,”others added.

Dear classmates,
Recently, the topic of whether English should be tested in a reformed way has been heatedly discussed. Many believe the current evaluation procedures hinder students’ comprehensive abilities and therefore argue for a reform.
Personally, I am against this point of view. There are numerous reasons why I think so, but today I would only explore some of them. Firstly, I don’t think our comprehensive abilities are hindered. To my knowledge, many of my classmates are good at all the four skills of English. Moreover, the current testing system is nothing but the fairest way for students to get selected for college study. Admittedly, there is pressure nowadays. But who can guarantee a new testing method will spare us from pressure?
As to the development of comprehensive language abilities, I believe the only solution is that we students practice more, either listening and reading or speaking and writing. Only in this way can we learn English in an effective way.
That’s all. I appreciate your attention.（152 words）
