Typhoons can be deadly — in 2013, Typhoon Haiyan, the strongest ever recorded, was responsible for 6,340 deaths—and cost billions in damages. Current forecast modelscan only predict these storms 10 days in advance, at
most, and they cannot precisely predict how intense the storms will become.
An international team of researchers has developed a model that analyzes nearly a quarter of Earth’s surface and atmosphere in order to better predict the conditions that birth typoons.
“The target problem of this study is how to foretell the birth of typhoons,” said paper author Mingkui Li, associate professor in the Key Laboratory of Physical Oceanography in the Ocean University of China and the Pilot National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology (QNLM). “We specifically address three aspects: the beginning time, inner pressure and maximum wind speed.”
The researchers also accounted for the influence of one variable(变量) on another, such as wind speed on sea surface temperature. This influence is well understood and accounted for in climate predictions and in weather forecasts, butithas not been fully applied in understanding how long-term climate affects day-to-day weather, according to Li. “We aimed to provide insights on the time scale that can be used to forecast typhoons in advance.”
From their study, the researchers determined that a model with the ability to better understand the relationship between warm sea surface temperatures and weak wind movement— conditions that favor typhoon formation—could improve typhoon predictability.
“Our goal is to develop a 10 to 30-day prediction system that will lead to seamless(无缝的) weather-climate predictions.” Shaoqing Zhang, paper author and professor in the Key Laboratory of Physical Oceanography, said.
4. What is the problem with the present forecast system?
A. It cannot foretell storms in advance.
B. It is ineffective in accuracy and timeliness.

A crew（全体成员）of six teenage girls completed a nine-day sailing trip in the US recently, after having seasickness and strong winds.
For the past three years, the Sea Cadet teenagers whoset sail were all male. Roger Noakes, who captained（担任队长）the boat, said this was the first time he’d taken out an all-female crew.
The girls asked for an all-girls trip in August this year. The crew set sail along with three adults, Noakes and two Sea Cadet representatives. The original plan was for the girls to sail 24 hours a day in rotating shifts（轮流换班）along the coast and then return. Things turned out differently, however. “The first night was difficult because the wind was really hard. The waves were going up and down,” said Abby Fairchild,16. “Everybody got seasick.” Noakes gave the girls the choice of just sailing in the bay and not going into open water. “But they decided they were going.”
The teenagers then sailed a long way overnight and slept in shifts. “We’ve learned everything from controlling the boat to putting up the sails while we have rough seas,” said 15-year-old Olivia Wilcox.
The teenagers stopped on land in Massachusetts. They didn’t make it to their original destination（目的地）in Maine, where they were supposed to have a celebratory dinner, due to the weather and winds. They said they weren’t disappointed, however, as they’d learned a lot. “They learned about boating, and above all, they built confidence and character,” said Noakes.
8. What was special about the Sea Cadet trip this year?
A. It was the longest sailing trip ever.
B. It was the first all-female-crew sailing trip.
C. It was the most dangerous sailing trip ever.
D. It was the first sailing trip for teenagers.
9. What happened on the crew’s first day of the trip?
A. They all felt sick on the boat.
B. Some of them were hurt.
C. Their boat was out of control.
D. They went into open water by mistake.
10. Which of the following best describes these young sailors?
A. Strong-minded and having a strong sense of teamwork.
B. Hard-working and having great leadership skills.
C. Understanding and creative.
D. Adventurous and skillful.
11. According to Noakes, what was the sailors’ greatest benefit from the trip?
A. They knew the sea better.
B. They made many friends.
C. They got excellent sailing skills.
D. They developed good personalities.
D
I had just delivered a memorable speech, and I was about to learn how the judges decided my performance. The audience leaned forward and a period of silence fell across the room. I felt the drum rolled in my heart.
The third-place winner was announced. The name was not mine. Then the second-place winner, still not me. At last, the moment of truth came. I was about to either enjoy the warmth of victory or regret the months’ preparation. My heart felt closer to the latter.
Losing is a part of life, and I have dealt with it on more than one occasion. However, it was an indescribable feeling to drive a 200-mile round trip, get up very early on a freezing Saturday morning, and yet still finish fourth out of four competitors in my group. After Lincoln lost the 1858 Illinois Senate race, he said, “I felt like the 12-year-old boy who kicked his toe. I was too big to cry and it hurt too bad to laugh.” Oh yeah, I could relate.
I had spent many hours in front of a computer and in libraries doing research for the Lincoln Bicentennial Speech Contest. After not placing in the first year of the contest, I really wanted to compete again. Lincoln had many failures, but he never allowed them to defeat his spirit or ambition, so I was not going to give up on a second contest! I reworked my speech for the following year, but again I did not place.
I couldn’t accept the fact that I failed twice in something that I had worked so hard on, until I thought about my hero. Never mind the lost prize money and praise—through learning stories about Lincoln, I discovered that I can fail successfully.
12. How did the author feel after finishing his speech?
A. Delighted.
B. Annoyed.
C. Thrilled.
D. Nervous.
13. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A. He was regretful about his not being fully prepared.
B. He felt upset for getting up early on a chilly morning.
C. He once kicked and hurt his toe when he was 12 years old.
D. He turned out to be the last one of his group in the contest.
14. Why did the author decide to enter the second contest?
A. He was eager to prove himself to be the best contestant.
B. He was inspired by the never-give-up spirit of Lincoln.
C. He was willing to enjoy the warmth and joy of victory.
D. He was determined to win the prize money and praise.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A memorable hero in my life
B. Never mind others’ judgments
C. Losing is an indescribable feeling
D. Stand up from where we tripped over

His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to theuniversitywhere he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The familyhuggedand smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.
The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile.” I guess this is it, “he said.” I'll see you back home in a month, okay？"His parents nodded, and theywatchedas he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy's mother turned to thedog, “Okay, Poppy, time to go back home.”
The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn't seem interested in her dinner, her favorite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would bebackto visit. Poppy didn't.
They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn't her usualcheerfulself. Her owners started to get worried. "What should we do to cheer Poppy up？"asked Dad. “We've tried everything.”
“I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy, “smiled Mom.” Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bit of fun. Let's get a little dog for Poppy."

(9). 去掉for (10). history后加has
【51题详解】
考查名词。

句意：一个好朋友应该具备的品质之一就是诚实。

“one of……”，后接可数名词复数，表示……中的一个。

故将quality改为qualities。

【52题详解】
考查介词。

句意：1976年7月28日凌晨3点左右，一些人看到天空中出现了明亮的光。

英语中表示时间的介词on+具体某日/星期几，表示某一具体的时间(常表达某一天)，in后一般加一段时间，年，月，四季等。

故将in改为on。

【53题详解】
考查形容词。

句意：在农家院子里，鸡甚至猪都被吓得吃不下东西。

frightened感到害怕的；frightening令人害怕的，指事情是令人恐惧的。

根据句子意思可知，这里鸡和猪是感到害怕的，而不是鸡和猪是令人害怕的。

故将frightening改为frightened。

【54题详解】
考查数词。

句意：三分之二的人在地震中死亡或受伤。

英语中表示几分之几，分子用基数词one two three……表示，分母用序数词second third fourth……表示，当分子大于1时，分母加-s。

故将third改为thirds。

【55题详解】
考查动词。

句意：军队组队挖出被困人员，埋葬死者。

trap为动词，“设圈套,陷入(困境)，捕捉”，分析句子可知，在定语从句those who were trap中，先行词those与谓语动词trap之间是被动关系，因此要用被动语态，be +及物动词的过去分词形式。

故将trap改为trapped。

【56题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。

句意：我们会照顾在大地震中失去父母的孩子。

本句为定语从句，先行词the children 与从句中parents是所属关系，表示孩子们的父母，关系词在从句中作定语，用关系代词whose。

故将who 改为whose。

【57题详解】
考查固定短语。

句意：仿佛世界到了尽头。

at the end使用时后面常跟介词of，at the end of在……的最后，通常指某一发展过程的最终结束。

at an end用于句尾，搭配be动词使用，表示结束。

故将the改为an。

【58题详解】
考查副词。

句意：二战期间，诺曼·白求恩作为医生在中国无私地工作。

分析可知，白求恩医生是无私的，selfish是自私的意思，应该用它的反义词“无私”，分析句子，此处用副词修饰work这一动作。

故将selfish 改为selflessly。

【59题详解】
考查固定短语。

句意：为什么纳尔逊·曼德拉求助于暴力以使黑人和白人平等？turn to sb/sth.求助于......,向......求教，转向等。

介词to后直接跟名词、代词、动名词等。

故将for去掉。

【60题详解】
考查倒装句。

句意：历史上从来没有一座城市被如此彻底地摧毁。

英语中，never, seldom, rarely, little, hardly, scarcely, no sooner, no longer, nowhere 等含有否定意义的副词若位于句首时，则其后要用部分倒装，将助动词提到主语前，分析句子可知，时态为现在完成时，形式是have/has + 过去分词，主语a city是单数，谓语动词用单数。

故将history后加has
52.略。
