2010年上海高考英语试题及答案解析(听力.写作)
2010年上海高考英语试题及答案解析(听力.写作)今年的听力内容总的而言弱化了长对话题型,那么为了平衡整个实体的难度,第一部分的短对话的难度得到进一步强化。
未来考生须在这也方面做好准备。
当然,长对话内容难度的下降,并不意味着未来的考生可以完全放松警惕,对话类型的题目出题来源将非常多元化。
对考生的知识面也将是很大的考验。
首先,作为“短对话”部分最难题型“推理题”今年又一次占到了“短对话”部分的一半,且难度逐渐增加。
从前两年开始,句意理解题就开始往“真正理解”的方向无限延伸,考察学生对英语语言习惯的掌握。
以西方人喜欢“隐射”的说话特点为指南,引入地道的符合西方语言习惯的日常用语,无形中提高了学生对英语口语掌握的要求。
而这一部分的内容的出处基本上超出了教材的范围,要求学生对英语学习培养由衷的可以长期坚持的兴趣,在课后继续主动学习,多接触英语题材的听力内容,积累真正有用的英语口语。
从这一个层面上来讲,这个题型的难度增加是学生们的福利,标志着英语教学更注重实用性、渐渐与国际接轨。
鼓励学生跳出课本的条条框框,从生活中、从英语国家的文化中去学习、去感受,学以致用。
最后一题压轴题更是稳定了“短对话”在上海高考英语中的重要地位:10. M: I don’t know if Steve likes the apartment or not.W: He said he liked it, but he didn’t want to sign the contract.Q: What can be concluded about Steve?其次,2010高考英语听力题目的Passages部分,第一篇为lecture,第二篇为story。
虽然在次序上有变,但是经过2008的story+instruction; 2009的story+lecture之后,现在passages 的出题也开始变得稳定。
从今年的题型分析,上海高考英语听力部分Passage题型的内容日趋新颖,渐渐包含生活实际,注重语言在生活中的实际运用,结合生活中的各个领域。

2010年上海高考英语听力原文
2010年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(上海卷)Section ADirections: In Section A, you will hear ten short conversations between two speakers. At the end of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said. The conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about it, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.Text 1W: Excuse me, I received this electric tooth brush as a gift, and I’d like to return it as I already have one.M: Sorry, you can only exchange it for something else of equal value.Q: What is probably the man?Text 2M: Be quite, I am trying to watch a football team in the world cup.W: So what’s going on? What’s the sco re?Q: What are the speakers talking about?Text 3M: Excuse me, could you tell me where the pencil boxes are, please?W: Yes, they are on the next floor, the stationary department.Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?Text 4W: Do you get up at 5:00 every morning?M: Yes, and I need 7 hours of sleep. I should go to bed by 9:00 or 10:00.Q: How much sleep does the man need?Text 5M: Have you heard about Tim? He had to be rushed to the emergency room.W: Really? I hope it’s not too se rious.Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?Text 6M: I thought we could all go to France this year.W: Oh, dad, I am 18 now. I am too old for family holidays.Q: What does the woman mean?Text 7M: Did it cost very much to stay overnight at the hotel?W: More than you would believe.Q: What does the woman mean?Text 8M: Do you fancy an ice cream?W: What? You want an ice cream, now?Q: What is implied in the woman’s reply?Text 9M: Oh, this is so annoying, where on earth did I put my car keys?W: You never learn your lessons.Q: What does the woman mean?Text 10M: I don’t know if Steve likes the apartment or not.W: He said he liked it, but then he didn’t want to sign the contract.Q: What can be concluded about Steve?Section BDirections: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following introduction.I am going to tell you about a sport—Capoeira. Capoeira came from Brazil, where it was started by the African slaves. They used it for entertainment and also to fight against their white masters. It is a kind of Kung Fu, which is also like a dance. You need to be very fit and strong, and you should have good control of your body. You often have to use your hands to balance.Everyone sits around in a circle, singing and playing music, and two people fight in the center, to fight the other person, you kick with your feet. But nowadays, there is no contact. As soon as you see the other person’s hand or foot com ing towards you, you have to move away quickly. You must be careful the other person doesn’t kick you. If the other person kicks you, then you lose.I have been doing Capoeira for three years. I have improved a lot since I first started, and now I wear a green belt. In the future, I would like to become a trainer and teach other people about this beautiful sport.Now listen again please.Questions:11. Who first started Capoeira?12. What is required if a man wants to do Capoeira?13. When can a man be judged to lose in Capoeira?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.As a hotel manager, I have to walk around and smile all the time. Every day, I arrive at the hotel at 7:30 a.m. Before I prepare for the daily operational meeting, I fi rst review the night manager’sreports and catch up on the emails that come through overnight. Then I check on breakfast, and walk through the restaurant to say hello to guests.At 9:00 a.m., there is the daily operational meeting, where staff report on what has happened the night before and what needs to be cared for. At 9:45, I am very visible, and always around the hotel meeting and greeting staff. I have to keep an eye on what is going on, everything from the temperature of the shower to the variety of food. And we have to bear in mind cultural differences, for example, the Japanese want a running bath, and the Americans are fine just with a shower.At 1:00 p.m., I always eat with a different member of staff as this is a valuable way of finding out what is going on.From 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., there are different meetings concerning all the aspects of hotel operation. I tried to get through all the work by 7:00 p.m.Now listen again please.Questions:14. What does the speaker do first after arriving at the hotel?15. Which of the following details shows the speaker’s concern about cultural differences?16. What does the passage mainly tell us?Section CDirections: In Section C, you will hear two longer conversations. The conversations will be read twice. After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Blanks 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.W: Next patient, please.M: Morning, doctor.W: It’s Mr Gerald, isn’t it?M: That’s right.W: Is that G-e-r-a-l-d?M: Yes, it is.W: Right, now what seems to be the trouble?M: Well, I’ve had this awful flu and a terrible cough.W: I see, how long have you been feeling like this?M: Oh, about 3 or 4 days, I suppose.W: Have you had a temperature?M: It’s normal.W: OK. I will just look at your chest. Now, breathe in and out slowly, and again. Good, that’s it. M: Thank you.W: Well, I’ll give you some cough mixture. Take one spoon for every four hours for the next five days.M: Ok, doctor.Now listen again please.Complete the form, write one word for each answer.Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation.M: I don’t know what to read, can you recommend anything?W: Hum...have you read a book by John Wyndham called Web? I’ve just finished it.M: No, I haven’t. What sort of book is it?W: Well, you know John Wyndham writes science fiction stories. This one is a novel set on a Pacific island.M: What’s it about then?W: Well, the main characters are a man and a woman, who join in a group of people hoping to start the perfect society.M: I see. And do they succeed?W: No. It turns out that the island they go to is full of huge spiders. They are determined to destroy eve rything there, including any people who come. But I won’t tell you what happens next, or you won’t want to read it.M: OK. I’ll give it a try. Thanks.。

A few dogs started barking a t it. The elephant woke up in a terrible ang er: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn’t stop the elephant. It destroy ed a dozen houses and injured several peopl e. The villagers were scared and angry. The n someone suggested calling Parbati, the elep hant princess.Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Par bati to ride an elephant before she could ev en walk. He also taught her the dangerous a rt of the elephant round-up—how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn’t always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her f ather, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being t here and many years later she went back to her old fife. "Life in the city is too dull. C atching elephants is an adventure and the ex citement lasts for days after the chase, " she says.But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun. “My work, ” she says, “is to rescu e man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man. ” And this is exac tly what Parbati has been doing for many y ears. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is ang ry: for many years, illegal hunters have atta cked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now f ighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle befo re they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also inv olves love and devotion. A good elephant ta mer will spend hours a day singing love son gs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never f orget them. They are also more loyal than h umans, ” she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!65. For Parbati, catching elephants is m ainly to ________.A. get long lasting excitementB. keep bo th man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. ma ke the angry elephants tame66. Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, ________.A. she spent her time hunting with her fatherB. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an eleph ant princessD. she was taught how to hunt tigers67. Indian elephants are getting increasi ngly angry and they revenge because ______ _ A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limitedD. dogs often bark at them and chase t hem68. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India _____A. people easily fall victim to elephants’attacksB. the man-elephant relationship is getti ng worseC. elephant tamers are in short supplyD. dogs are as powerful as elephants(B)Trevor,C.O., Lansford, B. and Black, J. W., 2004, “Employee turnover (人事变更) an d job performance: monitoring the influences of salary growth and promotion”, Journal o f Armchair Psychology, vol. 113, no. 1, pp. 56-64.In this article Trevor et al. review the i nfluences of pay and job opportunities in res pect of job performance, turnover rates and employees' job attitude. The authors use dat a gained through organizational surveys of b lue-chip companies in Vancouver, Canada to try to identify the main cause of employee turnover and whether it is linked to salary growth. Their research focuses on assessing a range of pay structures such as pay for p erformance and organizational reward plans. The article is useful as Trevor et al. sugges t that there are numerous reasons for emplo yee turnover and a variety of differences in employees' job attitude and performance. Th e main limitation of the article is that the s urvey sample was restricted to mid-level ma nagement, thus the authors indicate that furt her, more extensive research needs to be un dertaken to develop a more in-depth underst anding of employee turnover and job perfor mance. As this article was published in a pr ofessional journal, the findings can be consid ered reliable. It will be useful additional info rmation for the research on pay structures.The following card includes a brief sum mary and a short assessment of a research paper. It can provide a guide for further re ading on the topic.69. The research paper published is pri marily concerned withA. the way of preventing employee turn overB. methods of improving employee perfo rmanceC. factors affecting employee turnover a nd performanceD. pay structures based on employee pe rformance70. As is mentioned in the card, the lim itation of the research paper mainly lies in t hat.A. the data analysis is hardly reliableB. the research sample is not wide enou ghC. the findings are of no practical valueD. the research method is out-of-date71. Who might be most interested in thi s piece of information?A. Job hunters.B. Employees in blue-chip companies.C. Mid-level managers.D. Researchers on employee turnover.(C)The 2012 London Olympics had enough problems to worry about. But one more has just been added—a communications blacko ut caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh c ycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, jus t in time for the arrival of the Olympic torc h in London.Now scientists believe that this peak cou ld result in vast solar explosions that could t hrow billions of tons of charged matter towa rds the Earth, causing strong solar storms t hat could jam the telecommunications satellit es and interact links sending five Olympic b roadcast from London.“The Sun’s ac tivity has a strong influen ce on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum whic h could affect the functions of communicatio ns satellites, ” said Professor Richard Harris on, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle, violent outburs ts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun’s atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter. “A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Suc h events can expose astronauts to a deadly a mount, can disable satellites, cause power fai lures on Earth and disturb communications,” Professor Harrison added. The risk is gre atest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America, NASA is schedul ed to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observato ry (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most ad vanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory hel ped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away, the lab’s director, said that the SDO should be able t o provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite comm unications on Earth “If we have advance wa rning, we’ll be able to reduce the damage. What you don’t want is things switching off fo r a week with no idea of what’s caused t he problem,” he said.()72. The phrase “communications blackou t” in paragraph 1 most probably refers to _ _______ during the 2012 Olympics.A. the extinguishing of the Olympic torc hB. the collapse of broadcasting systemsC. the transportation breakdown in Lon donD. the destruction of weather satellites73. What can be inferred about the sola r activity described in the passage?A. The most fatal matter from the coro na falls onto Earth.B. The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C. It takes several seconds for the char ged matter to reach Earth.D. The number of sunspots declines afte r coronal mass ejections.74. according to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to ________.A. take images of the solar systemB. provide early warning of thunderstormsC. keep track of solar activitiesD. impr ove the communications on Earth75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Solar Storms: An Invisible KillerB. Solar Storms: Earth Environment in DangerC. Solar Storms: Threatening the Huma n RaceD. Solar Storms: Human Activities to B e TroubledSection CA. Drug overuse and its consequenceB. The problem of drug overuse in Ame ricaC. Benefits of medicine and its wise useD. Female drug overuse with reference t o that of malesE. Misuse of medicine among the young generationF. Improper use of medicine among seni or citizens76. ________Nowadays, millions of people misuse and even overuse pain medications and other dr ugs. Research by the American National Inst itute on Drug Abuse (NIDA, 1999) shows th at around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically.77. ________NIDA views medications as a powerful f orce for good in the contemporary world. T hey reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and disease. Th ey make it possible for doctors to perform c omplicated surgery to save lives. Many peopl e afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active, contributing citizens. NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drags use them in a responsible.78. ________Nevertheless, overuse of drugs such as o pium, central nervous system (CNS) depressa nts and stimulants does lead to harmful reli ance in some people and is therefore becomi ng a serious public health concern. Althoughthis abuse affects many people worldwide, p articular trends of concern to the medical pr ofession in the US appear among older adult s, teenagers arid women.79. ________Though it may be a surprise to many, t he misuse of medications may be the most c ommon form of drug abuse among the elder ly. Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University, North Carolina states that although the eld erly represent about 13% of the US populati on, those aged 65 and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs. Peopl e in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general populatio n and have poorer compliance with instructi on for use. In another study of elderly patie nts admitted to treatment programs, 70% we re women who had overused medicines.80. ________Unfortunately, this trend among women does not only affect those aged over 60. In general, among women and men who are usi ng either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative, women are twice as likely to become addict ed. In addition, statistics compiled for 12-17 year olds show that teenage girls are more l ikely than teenage boys to begin overusing p sychotherapeutic medication such as painkille rs, tranquillizers, stimulants and sedatives.Section DPhys ed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core cur riculum(核心课程), but with a difference. Wh ile group sports are still part of the curricul um, the new way is to teach skills that are useful beyond gym class. Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught t o lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance. In this way, kids are giv en the tools and skills and experiences so th ey can lead a physically active life the rest of their life.Considering that 15 percent of American children 6 to 18 are overweight, supporters say more money and thought must be put i nto phys ed curriculum. In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-cl ass model with fitness programs but also sta rting up phys ed programs because school b oards often “put P. E. on the chopping bloc k, cutting it entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered, ” says Alicia M oag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Actio n for Health Kids. The difference in phys e d programs is partly due to the lack of a n ational standard. “Physical education needs t o be part of the core curriculum, ” she add ed.The wisdom of the new approach has so me scientific support. Researchers at the Uni versity of Wisconsin have demonstrated howeffective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight ch ildren lost more weight when they cycled an d skied cross-country than when they played sports. The researchers also found that teac hing sports like football resulted in less over all movement, partly because reluctant stude nts were able to sit on the bench.Another problem with simply teaching g roup sports in gym class is that only a tiny percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school. The new method teaches sells that translate to adulth ood.()(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS. )81. In the new P. E. program, children learn to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance rather than ______ __.82. As for P. E., some school boards eit her ________.83.

They were not wearing business clothes but the man was carrying a suitcase. Every few seconds the woman looked around. I wondered if someone was following them. Perhaps they were running away and….

I hope that all of you can hear me,if not,please let me know. I am professor John Moss,I’ll be your teacher for the next 13 weeks. As you can probably tell this is one of the most popular and crowded classes. Indeed,every time this course is offered,this room is very full. Why is that? Well,in order to use the English language,it’s very important to have at least a basic understanding of how words are formed. Just to mention one figure and there are many. There are about 1 million words in English. If you are an English learner,you may wonder how you can possibly remember all of these words. Well,for one thing,you don’t have to. No native speaker exists who knows all of the words in the English language. Besides,there are short cuts.Short cuts? Yes,for example,if you know how words are formed by using parts of words from other languages,such as Greek andFrench,you’ll understand a good number of English words when you When you are old and grey and full of sleep,And nodding by the fire, take down this book,And slowly read, and dream of the soft lookYour eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;How many loved your moments of glad grace,And loved your beauty with love false or true,But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,And loved the sorrows of your changing face;And bending down beside the glowing bars,Murmur, a little sadly, how love fledAnd paced upon the mountains overheadAnd hid his face amid a crowd of stars.The furthest distance in the worldIs not between life and deathBut when I stand in front of youYet you don't know thatI love you.The furthest distance in the worldIs not when I stand in front of youYet you can't see my loveBut when undoubtedly knowing the love from bothYet cannot be together.The furthest distance in the worldIs not being apart while being in loveBut when I plainly cannot resist the yearningYet pretending you have never been in my heart.The furthest distance in the worldIs not struggling against the tidesBut using one's indifferent heartTo dig an uncrossable riverFor the one who loves you.倚窗远眺,目光目光尽处必有一座山,那影影绰绰的黛绿色的影,是春天的颜色。

Fillin each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The first attempt of even the most talented artists, musicians, and writers is seldom a masterpiece, If you consider your drafts as dress rehearsals (彩排), or tryouts, revising will seem a natural part of the writing 50 . What is the purpose of the dress rehearsals and the out-of-town previews that many Broadway shows go through? The answer is adding, deleting, replacing, reordering, 51 revising.Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical Phantom of the Opera underwent such a process.When Lloyd Webber began writing in 1984, he had in minda funny, exciting production.However, when Phantom openedin London in 1986, the audience saw a moving psychological love story set to music.The musical had. 52 several revisions due, in part, to problems with costuming and makeup (戏服和化妆).For instance, Lloyd Webber 53 some of the music because the Phantom's makeup prevented the actor from singing certain sounds.When you revise, you change aspects of your work in54 to your evolving purpose, or to include 55 ideas or newly discovered information.Revision is not just an afterthought that gets only as much time as you have at the end of an assignment. 56 , it is a major stage of the writing process, and writers revise every step of the way.Even your decision to 57 .topics while prewriting is a type of revising.However.don't make the mistake of skipping the revision stage that follows 58 .Always make time to become your own 59 and view your dress rehearsal, so to speak.Reviewing your work in this way can give you 60 new ideas.Revising involves 61 the effectiveness and appropriateness of all aspects of your writing, making your purpose more clearly, and refocusing or developing the facts and ideas you present.When you revise, ask yourself the following questions, keeping in mind the audience for whom you are writing: Is my main idea or purpose 62 throughout my draft?

And this is exactlywhat Parbati has been doing for many years.Increasingly,the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land.It is now fighting back.Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called toguide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion.A good elephant tamer will spend hours a daysinging love songs to a newly captured elephant."Eventually they grow to love their tamers andnever forget them.They are also more loyal than humans,"she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and saton the giant, happy animal.An elephant princess indeed!65.For Parbati, catching elephants is mainlyto .A.get long lasting excitement B.keep both man and elephants safeC.send them back to the jungle D.make the angry elephants tame66.Before Parbati studied in a boardingschool, .A.she spent her time hunting with herfatherB.she learned how to sing love songsC.she had already been called an elephantprincessD.she was taught how to hunt tigers67.Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry andthey revenge because __________.A.they are caught and sent for heavy workB.illegal hunters capture them and kill themC.they are attacked and their land gets limitedD.dogs often bark at them and chase them68.The passage starts with an elephant story in order toexplain that in India _________.A.people easily fall victim to elephants' attacks B.the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC.elephant tamers are in short supplyD.dogs are as powerful as elephants(B)The following card includes a brief summary and aTrevor, C. O., Lansford, B. and Black, J. W., 2004, "Employee turnover (人事变更) and job performance: monitoring the influences of salary growth and promotion", Journal of Armchair Psychology, vol. 113, no.1, pp. 56-64.In this article Trevor et al. review the influences of pay and job opportunities in respect of job performance, turnover rates and employees' job attitude. The authors use data gained through organizational surveys of blue-chip companies in Vancouver, Canada to try to identify the main cause of employee turnover and whether it is linked to salary growth. Their research focuses on assessing a range of pay structures such as pay for performance and organizational reward plans. The article is useful as Trevor et al. suggest that there are numerous reasons for employee turnover and a variety of differences in employees' job attitude and performance. The main limitation of the article is that the survey sample was restricted to mid-level management, thus the authors indicate that further, more extensive research needs to be undertaken to develop a more in-depth understanding of employee turnover and job performance. As this article was published in ashort assessment of a research paper.It can provide a guide for further reading on the topic.69.The research paper published is primarily concerned withA.the way of preventing employee turnoverB.methods of improving employee performanceC.factors affecting employee turnover and performanceD.pay structures based on employee performance 70.As is mentioned in the card, the limitation of the research paper mainly lies in that .A.the data analysis is hardly reliableB.the research sample is not wide enoughC.the findings are of no practical valueD.the research method is out-of-date71.Who might be most interested in this piece of information?A.Job hunters.B.Employees in blue-chip companies.C.Mid-level managers.D.Researchers on employee turnover.(C)The 2012 London Olympics had enough problems to worry about.But one more has just been added - a communications blackout caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and interact links sending five Olympic broadcast from London."The Sun's activity has a strong influence on the Earth.The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites," said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun's atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter." A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour.Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites,cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications," Professor Harrison added.The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away, the lab's director, said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth "If we have advance warning, we'll be able to reduce the damage.What you don't want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what's caused the problem," he said.72.The phrase "communications blackout" in paragraph 1 most probably refers to during the 2012Olympics.A.the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB.the collapse of broadcasting systemsC.the transportation breakdown in LondonD.the destruction of weather satellites73.What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?A.The most fatal matter from the corona falls onto Earth.B.The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C.It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.D.The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.74.According to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to _ _A.take images of the solar systemB.provide early warning of thunderstormsC.keep track of solar activitiesD.improve the communications on Earth75.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Solar Storms: An Invisible KillerB.Solar Storms: Earth Environment in DangerC.Solar Storms: Threatening the Human RaceD.Solar Storms: Human Activities to Be TroubledSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each76.77.NIDA views medications as a powerful force for good in the contemporary world .They reduce and remove pain for millions ofpeople suffering from illness and disease .They make it possible fordoctors to perform complicated surgery to save lives .Many people afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active, contributing citizens .NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drags use them in a responsible.78.Nevertheless .overuse of drugs such as opioids, central nervous system (CNS) depressants and stimulants does lead to harmful reliance in some people and is therefore becoming a serious public health concern .Although this abuse affects many people worldwide, particular trends of concern to the medical profession in the US appear among older adults, teenagers arid women.79.Though it may be a surprise to many, the misuse of medications may be the most common form of drug abuse among the elderly.Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University, North Carolina states that although the elderly represent about 13% of the US population, those aged 65 and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs.People in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general population and have poorer compliance with instruction for use.In another study of elderly patients admitted to treatment programs, 70% were women who had overused medicines.80.Unfortunately, this trend among women does not only affect those aged overIn general, among women and men who are using either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative, women are twice as likely to become addicted.In addition, statistics compiled for 12-17 year olds show that teenage girls are more likely than teenage boys to begin overusing psychotherapeutic medication such as painkillers, tranquillisers, stimulants and sedatives.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Phys ed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core curriculum(核心课程), but with a difference.While group sports are still part of the curriculum, the new way is to teach skills that are useful beyond gym class.Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance.In this way,kids are given the tools and skills and experiences so they can lead a physically active life the rest of their life.Considering that 15 percent of American children 6 to 18 are overweight, supporters say more money and thought must be put into phys ed curriculum.In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-class model with fitness programs but also starting up phys ed programs because school boards often "put P.E.on the chopping block, cutting it entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered," says Alicia Moag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Action for Health Kids.The difference in physed programs is partly due to the lack of a national standard."Physical education needs to be part of the core curriculum," she added.The wisdom of the new approach has some scientific support.Researchers at the University of Wisconsin have demonstrated how effective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be.They observed how 50 overweight children lost more weight when they cycled and skied cross-country than when they played sports.The researchers also found that teaching sports like football resulted in less overall movement, partly because reluctant students were able to sit on the bench.Another problem with simply teaching group sports in gym class is that only a tiny percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school.The new method teaches sells that translate to adulthood. (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81.In the new P.E.program, children learn to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance rather than __82.As for P.E., some school boards either83.What are the two problems with simply teaching group sports?84.What is the long-term benefit of the new P.E program?第Ⅱ卷(共45分)I.TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.这本杂志花了我20多元。

Y ou need to be very fit and strong and you should have a good control of your body. Y ou often have to use your hands to balance. Everyone sits around in a circle, singing and playing music and two people fight in the center. To fight the otherper son, you kick with your feet, but nowadays, there is no contact. As soon as you see other person’s hand or foot coming towards you, you have to move away quickly. Y ou must be careful the other person doesn’t kick you. If the other person kicks you, then you lose.

At 9:45, I am very visible and always around the hotel meeting and greeting staff. I have to keep an eye on what is going on, everything from the temperature of the shower to the variety of food. And we have to bear in mind cultural differences. For example, the Japanese want a running bath and the Americans are fine just with ashower. At 1 p.m., I always eat with a different member of staffas this is a valuable way of finding out what is going on.
