Which animal is the cleverest in the world？Maybe you'd like to know the answer.A teacher in a famous school wanted to find out the result，too.So he recently made several experiments with different animals.At last he reached his answer—the monkey was more intelligent than other animals.
In one experiment，the teacher put a monkey in a room.At the same time，he put
a few small boxes in the room.Some boxes were inside others.One small box had
some food inside it，which the monkey likes best.The teacher wanted to watch the monkey and find out how long it would take the monkey to find the food.The teacher closed the door and left the room.He waited a few minutes outside the door.Then he came close to the door and put his eye to the keyhole.He thought the hungry monkey would be searching for food.What did he see？The money opened the boxes one by one.When it almost got the smallest box which had food in，it looked around.Then to the teacher's surprise，the monkey didn't open the last box.It walked gently to the door and looked through the other side of the keyhole!

C．needs repairing D．need to repair
解析考查主谓一致和非谓语动词。

分数、百分数修饰名词，谓语动词的单复数取决于名词，此处two-thirds修饰buildings，故谓语动词取决于名词复数buildings，排除B、C两项，need doing＝need to be done意为“需要被做”。

C．lacking of D．lacked in

考查非谓语动词作状语。

主句主语his parents与lack在逻辑上为主动关系，排除A 项，答案为B项。

答案 B

Canyonlands National Park
Canyonlands National Park is a famous tourist attraction in Utah where visitors can see arches(拱门)and other beautiful rock formations.
Canyonlands National Park is a wild，lonely area of rocks，rivers and desert plants.Only Native Americans，cowboys，and explorers entered this area before the park was set up in 1964.Even today，it is difficult to walk or ride through the
park.The roads are still made of dirt.Driving requires a special vehicle.The National Park Service says Canyon－lands National Park is wild America.
Rivers created the area as they cut rocks into many different for mations.At the center of the park are two deep canyons carved by the Green and Colorado Rivers.Three areas that surround these rivers are included in the park.
One of these areas is called the Maze District.This area includes rock art made by people who lived there more than 2,000 years ago.Yet many people today cannot see the Maze District because it is so difficult to reach.The area is one of the loneliest and wildest areas in the United States.
Another area of the park is called the Needles.It includes long，thin，red and white rocks that reach high into the air like fingers on a hand.
A good way to see all the areas of Canyonlands National Park is to fly over it.A
one-hour trip in a small airplane makes it possible to see the park's red rocks，arches and flat areas where ancient Indian people once lived.
From high in the air，visitors can clearly see the third area of the park－a high broad flat rock known as the Island in the Sky.The island was formed between the two rivers.
Another interesting formation is called the Upheaval Dome.This is a huge hole about four hundred and fifty meters deep and one point five kilometers wide.It is considered to be the most unusual geological(地质的)structure in the area. 56．Why is Canyonlands National Park referred to as wild America?
A．No vehicle is available to go through the park.
B．The park today still remains as it was in the past.
C．There is no access for people to get close to it.
D．A variety of wild animals and plants grow in it.
解析推理判断题。

根据第二段中的内容可知，美国犹他州的峡谷地国家公园(Canyonlands National Park)路况原始、交通不便，是人迹罕至的地方，基本保持原有风貌，因此被称为“wild America”。

答案 B
57．What do we know about the Maze District?
A．No one is allowed to explore the area.
B．It is known to the outside world.
C．Its rock art dates back over 2,000 years.
D．It is the loneliest and wildest place in the US.
解析细节理解题。

根据文章的第四段可知，the Maze District有两千多年前当地人创造的岩石艺术。

故答案选C。

根据第四段最后一句话可知，人类难以进入这里，因此这里被称为美国最荒芜、最孤独的地区之一，故D项错误。

答案 C
58．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?
A．The unique geological structure results from the force of nature.
B．The Needles is named after the rocks in the shape of needles.
C．Canyonlands National Park has a history of about 2,000 years.
D．The Green and Colorado Rivers divide the park into three parts.
解析细节理解题。

根据第二段可知，峡谷地国家公园成立于1964年，它的历史只有40多年，因此C项的陈述错误。

答案 C
59．In order to have a good view of the park，you should go sightseeing________.
A．by air B．by land C．by water D．on foot
解析细节理解题。

根据第六段中的“A good way to see all the areas of Canyonlands National Park is to fly over it.”一句可知，参观该公园的最佳方式是乘坐飞机。

答案 A
B
Will Nanfang University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen announce a new beginning for China's higher education reform？It's too early to answer.But its presence is challenging the Ministry of Education.Even without the approval of the ministry it seems that the school is determined to move forward and enroll 50 students，so-called child prodigies(奇才)，to begin classes on March 1,2011.On graduating in 2015，these students will receive a diploma unauthorized by the Ministry of Education－unlike the students of their age from the state-run universities.
The school is committed to modeling itself on Hong Kong University of Science and Technology，but if the government will not approve the school，the situation could cause a lot of trouble for those 50 students if they want to do graduate studies at other higher learning institutions.Other schools could turn their applications down for their unauthorized diplomas.
The difficulties，however，have not frightened students and their，parents away.On Dec.18,2010 more than 1,000 students and their parents visited Nanfang University of Science and Technology for interviews.
Private investment marks the school out from other higher learning institutions in the nation.Not a penny comes from the government.So the government will have no voice in how the school will be run.
The Ministry of Education has published a comprehensive plan for education reform and development between 2011 and 2020.The goal is to make China's higher education internationally competitive.To accomplish this goal，the government should have the courage to let the educators who have big ideas try them out.The ministry should have applauded the independence the school in Shenzhen has shown and encouraged more to do likewise.
Education reform in China has reached a new and crucial stage.Nanfang University of Science and Technology has a long way to go to prove itself competitive rather than a diploma mill.
【语篇解读】南方科技大学的高等教育改革备受关注，奇才教育是否可行？这所完全依靠私人投资运行的高等学府能否顶住重重阻力探索出一种新型的办学模式？
60．What will make those 50 students different from others?
A．They are all child prodigies.
B．They will study much longer time.
C．They are willing to challenge the Ministry of Education.
D．They will receive an unauthorized diploma.

解析推理判断题。

南方科技大学在高等教育改革上敢于挑战教育部，它的奇才培养模式将效仿香港科技大学；虽然它面临很多困难，但他们还是很踊跃地来到这所学校，由此可推测他们相信学校会有美好的未来。

答案 A
62．The trouble the students in the school may have is that________.
A．the government will have no voice in the school
B．they won't receive any diploma when graduating from the school
C．other schools are unlikely to accept their diploma from the school
D．they will not learn how to be competitive
解析细节理解题。

根据第二段后半部分中的内容可知学生可能遭遇的麻烦是其他学校也许不接受他们的毕业文凭。

答案 C
63．What does the author think of Nanfang University of Science and Technology?
A．It is another kind of diploma mill.
B．It's impossible for the school to be competitive.
C．It will never get the approval from the Ministry of Education.
D．Its independence from the government may benefit the education reform.
解析推理判断题。

文章倒数第三段提到南方科技大学完全是私人运作，没有政府的分文投入，再结合倒数第二段中的内容可推断作者认为南方科技大学的这种独立的经营模式或许对教育改革有益。

答案 D
C
“How lucky you are to be a doctor...”Anyone who's a doctor is right out of luck，I thought.Anyone who's studying medicine should have his head examined.
You may think I want to change my job.Well，at the moment I do.As one of my friends says－even doctors have a few friends－it's all experience.Experience！I
don't need such experience.I need a warm，comfortable and undisturbed bed all my own.I need it badly.I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well.That's what I need.
All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini(微型汽车)through the foggy streets of East London at 3：45 a．m.on a December morning.I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat and a bag of medicines.As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour，the heater first blowing hot then cold，my back aching from the car－seat，I do not feel like a ministering angel.I wish I were on the beach in southern France.Call me a bad doctor if you like.Call me what you will.But don't call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear-ache that you have had for two weeks.
Of course，being a doctor isn't really all bad.We do have our moments.Once in
a while people are ill，once in a while you can help，once in a while you are given
a cup of tea and rock－hard cake at two o'clock in the morning－then you worry if
you have done everything.But all too often“everything”is a repetitious rule：look，listen，feel，tap，pills，injection，phone，ambulance and away to the next.
And then there is always the cool, warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed service who will get your patient into hospital for you－the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand in the cold，dark，smelly and dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town.Oh，it has its moments，and this life does.

Eleven-year-old Evan Green doesn't want to save just one tree－he wants to save a whole rainforest!
In the Redwood City，Calif，a boy started a group called the Red Dragon Conservation Team four years ago to do just that.So far，the team's members have raised$4,500.That's enough to purchase and protect more than 16 acres of rainforest in Costa Rica through the Center for Ecosystem Survival.Every year，thousands of square miles of rainforest are destroyed worldwide.Logging(伐木)and farming are mostly likely to blame，scientists say.The loss is terrible news for animals and people.Even though rainforests cover less than 2 percent of the earth，they are home to half the world's plants and animals.Rainforests also provide water and help control the earth's climate.
Evan's work to save the rainforests recently earned him a Barron prize for Young Heroes.The prizes are given to children or teenagers who have made a
positive difference in the world.Evan's goal is“to save enough rainforests to last forever”．He won't have to do it alone.His actions have already inspired other kids to chip in.One girl asked for donations instead of presents on her birthday.She raised $850.Other kids are starting their own conservation teams.
Evan says every one can help the planet－even by taking small steps such as recycling.He and his family try to make a difference every day.“We recycle，we try to limit our garbage...we've been walking a little more，and we buy local food，”Evan said.
