The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand 37. Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A38wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves39nothing.

Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers.Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A recent study of 10-to-15-year-old boys and girls found that girls’ friendships are actually more fragile. Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.Boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”; they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道)class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt(萦绕心头)a boy for years.As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy’s life—and a part in which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always there for me”, someone they can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.51. The common belief of adults is that boys.A. don’t care about others as much as girlsB. don’t value friendships as much as girlsC. have the same friendship as girlsD. have healthier friendships than girls52. According to the passage, .A. boys usually build friendships by playing competitive gamesB. boys like to have small groups of friendsC. boys’ friendships seldom result in anyone being hurtD. boys’ friendships can hardly end in failure53. The author mentions the study in Para. 2 to prove.A. girls value relationships more than boysB. most boys consider their friends very importantC. boys may be better at keeping friendships than girlsD. boys may be more active in a friendship54. As a boy gets older, he tends to.A. widen his circle of friends to include his parentsB. shift his focus from his friends to himselfC. leave his parents out of his friendsD. be confused about what a friendship isBLONDON(Reuters)—New faces given to a Chinese man after a bear tore off part of his face and a French-Caribbean man disfigured by a rare tumor show that such transplants can work and are not medical oddities(怪异), researchers said.The findings give hope to some people with severe facial disfigurement and suggest the transplants could prove long-lasting without major problems. Despite the tissue rejection in the first year after their transplants, neither men had psychological problems accepting their new faces and have been able to rejoin society, they reported.Only three people have received face transplants. The world’s first was carried out on a French woman Isabelle Dinoire in November 2005 after she was disfigured in an attack by her dog. In 2007, her doctors reported that she had recovered slowly and steadily, overcoming two periods of rejection.In 2006, Chinese doctors performed a face transplant on a 30-year-old hit by a bear. While there were some complications with tissue rejection following the operation, two years later the man was doing well, his doctors said. “This case suggests that facial transplantation might be an option for restoring a severely disfigured face, and could enable patients to bring themselves back into society, ” Guo Shuzhong and colleagues at Xijing Hospital in China wrote.A French team described their work on a 29-year-old man who suffered from V on Recklinghausen disease, an illness that changes the shape of his face. “The man, who was not named, was given a new nose, mouth and chin in a 2007 operation. He began to work 13 monthsafter the transplant has more functions in his face and has not rejec ted the new tissue, ”his doctors said.“Our case confirms that face transplantation is practical and effective for the correction of specific disfigurement, ”Dr. Laurent Lantieri and colleagues at the Henri-Mondor Hospital outside Paris wrote.55. What’s the main idea of this passage?A. Face transplants can work.B. Face transplants help regain confidence.C. Three people have received face transplants.D. Disfigured people need face transplants.56. What happened to the Chinese patient mentioned in the passage?A. He got a strange illness when he was young.B. He received several operations in hospital.C. He was the first person to receive a face transplant.D. He was once attacked by an animal.57. From the passage we can learn that.A. doctors have different opinions on facial disfigurementB. patients could regain self-confidence after face transplantsC. the new face of every patient has more functions than expectedD. it is easy for disabled people to be accepted by society58. The un derlined word “restoring” in Paragraph 4 means“”.A. removingB. recoveringC. repairingD. rejectingCFacebook is now used by 30 million people in the UK, around half the population. Joanna Shields, vice president of Facebook Europe, made the announcement this morning at a media conference in London.Globally, Facebook has more than 500 million registered(注册的)users, a milestone it hit last summer. Last July, it had 26 million registered UK users. In the last eight months, it has attracted 4 million extra UK users, bringing the UK total to 30 million.Facebook, the brainchild of Mark Zuckerberg while he was still studying at Harvard University, was launched in February 2004. The pace of its global growth has sped rapidly—Facebook had only 150 million registered users in January 2009.One third of women aged 18 to 34 check Facebook when they first wake up, before even going to the toilet, according to the research. 21% check Facebook in the middle of the night, while 42% of the same group think it is fine to post drunken photos of themselves onto the social network, a study by Oxygen Media and Lightspeed Research found.Shields was speaking this morning at the Financial Times Digital Media and Broadcasting Conference about the power Fac ebook’s referrals(好友推荐)can bring to media sites, such as newspapers and TV services. She explained that the average Facebook user has 130 friends who they share links to media sites with regularly. “Media companies which take advantage of that are really s eeing the benefits, ”Shields said. Shields refused to be drawn on whether Facebook would develop its own mobile phone operating system and also said it was “silly” that Google had recently disabled the feature which allowed Google users to refresh their contacts with Facebook friends.59. Eight months ago the number of registered users of Facebook in the UK was about.A. less than half of its populationB. 30 millionC. 4 millionD. 500 million60. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that.A. there are only women users of FacebookB. more women than men like to check FacebookC. all the registered users should post their drunken photos onto their FacebookD. Facebook is very popular among the users61. What does the underlined word “disabled” mean in the last paragraph?A. Invented.B. Strengthened.C. Added.D. Stopped.62. What is the best title of the text?A. Facebook’s referrals bring benefitsB. Facebook: the brainchild of Mark ZuckerbergC. Facebook: used by half the UK populationD. Facebook: women’s preferenceDClenching(攥)your fist could be enough to help you improve your memory. Research suggests that balling up the right hand and squeezing(紧握)it tightly actually makes it easier to memorize lists. Later, when it is time to retrieve the information, it is the left hand that should be clenched. It is thought the movements activate(激活)brain regions’ key to the storing and recall of memories. The American researchers suggest those who are short of a pen and paper should try the trick when attempting to memorize a shopping list or phone number.In the study, volunteers were given a rubber ball and asked to squeeze it as hard as possible before trying to memorize a list of 72 words. They squeezed the ball again a couple of minutes later, ahead of recollecting as many of the words as possible.One group used their right hand on both occasions, another their left. A third group clenched their right fist ahead of memorizing and their left ahead of recalling and a fourth did the reverse(相反). A fifth group held the ball but did not squeeze it. Those who squeezed with their right hand, followed by their left, remembered the most words. The next best were the volunteers who made a f ist with their right hand both times, while those who didn’t squeeze at all did better than those who led with their left.It is thought that the movement of clenching the right fist activates a brain region that is involved in storing memories, while squeezing the left hand activates an area that is key to retrieving information. Lead researcher Dr Ruth Propper said, “The findings suggest that simple body movements—by temporarily(临时)changing the way the brain functions—can improve memory. ”63. The passage is mainly about.A. the way to help improve the memoryB. how to memorize the wordsC. how to memorize a shopping listD. how to memorize a group of words with a ball in hand64. In the study, which group did the best job?A. The third group.B. The first group.C. The fourth group.D. The second group.65. According to the study, .A. you can do a good job by holding a ball without squeezing itB. you can memorize things by holding a ball in the right handC. the movements of left hands can help to memorize things betterD. the movements of right hands can help to memorize things and recall them better66. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word in Paragraph 1?A. recallB. rememberC. forgetD. reviewEJohnny Jones was a nice and popular boy, who everyone loved. He was so much fun, so good and so kind to everyone that they treated him wonderfully. But as everything he needed was given to him without asking, Johnny became a weed. He was so spoiled by everyone that he couldn’t stand any hardship.One day Johnny heard a mother saying to her son “Come on, my boy, get up and stop crying. You are behaving like Johnny Jones. ”That made Johnny feel very ashamed. But he was sure that he would prefer to be known as a good boy rather than a fool. Worried, he spoke to his father about all this, though he was afraid that maybe he would be laughed at for having such worries. His father, far from laughing at Johnny, told him that a teacher had taught him a secret trick to turn him into the toughest boy of all. “Eat a candy less, study a minute more, and count to five before crying. ”Johnny asked, “Just that? ”“Yes, just that, ”said his father, “It’s very simple, but I warn you that it won’t be easy. ”Johnny was happy like a bird, ready to follow the advice. He went to see his mother, and she noticed how happy he was when she offered him candies. “One candy less”, thought Johnny, so he only took one. That afternoon he had another chance to put it into practice by studying one minute more. The result was that he missed the first minute of his favorite program! But having achieved this gave him a great feeling of satisfaction. The same thing happened when he ran up against the corner of the kitchen table. He only managed to count to four before crying, but that was left deeply in his mother’s memory.Over the following days Johnny kept using the motto in his life as his father told him. Andthe more he put this into practice, the easier it got. Before long he realized that he could also do things that would seem impossible before.67. The underlined word “weed” in the first paragraph refers to.A. a person with a strong willB. a person with a weak characterC. a person who isn’t popular with everyoneD. a person who changes his behavior according to the situation68. What made Johnny Jones decide to change himself?A. A mother’s words.B. Others’ attitude to him.C. His father’s advice.D. His teacher’s warning.69. What is the key point of the a dvice from Johnny’s father?A. Eat fewer candies than before.B. Count to five before crying.C. Talk with parents and follow their advice.D. Learn to control oneself and keep using the motto in life.70. What message does the writer want to convey through the story?A. One should be brave to face his mistakes.B. Nothing is difficult as long as you set your mind on it.C. Spoiling a child too much may result in his selfish behaviors.D. A strong will can be developed by small but consistent efforts.第四部分书面表达(共两节, 满分50分)第一节完成句子(共10小题; 每小题2分, 满分20分)阅读下列各小题, 根据汉语提示, 用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

One of them said, “The visibility is so poor that we can’t take good photos, or even see clearly. We’d better leave early.”In response to worsening air conditions, travel agencies have also taken some measures to avoid a further decline in tourist numbers. An employee with China Youth Travel Service, Wang Tao, said the agency will inform tourists of the weather conditions at their destinations. A tour guide with China Travel Service also told the media that it was a tour guide’s duty to inform foreign visitors of the smog conditions in Beijing, and the agency will provide free face masks to those in need. But efforts to do so merely treat the symptom rather than the disease itself, because the root cause is air pollution. China will introduce various emergency responses and long-term measures against air pollution. Officials and experts called for combined efforts by governments, industries and the public to cooperate more efficiently and to jointly solve the problem.56. In the following statements, which one is NOT TRUE?A. The tourism in Beijing was influenced by the hazy weather.B. The concentration of PM 2.5 has risen, but it will decrease soon.C.

According to the passage, if the weather is fine, how many visitors will the Palace Museum receive in a week?A. About 11,200.B. About 78,400.C. About 40,000.D. About 280,000.58. The most effective way to resolve the problem of air pollution is to _______.A. take some measuresB. inform tourists of the weather conditions at their destinationsC. provide free face masks to those in needD. unite the power of governments, industries and the public59. What does the author most probably mean by “efforts to do so merely t reat the symptom rather than thedisease itself” in the last paragraph?A. Treating the symptom is more important than the disease.B. These efforts are not enough to solve the problem thoroughly.C. These efforts could treat the symptom and the disease.D. These efforts couldn’t treat the disease, so they are unnecessary.60. The main purpose of this news report is to _______.A. introduce the tourism situation of BeijingB. explain the main cause of air pollutionC.introduce the influence of smog on tourism of Beijing and some measures to solve the problemD. introduce the measures carried out to improve the air qualityBA shark has a very good sense of smell. It can find small amounts of things in water, such as blood, body liquids and chemicals produced by animals. Sharks also sense electrical and magnetic(磁性的) power linked to nerves(神经) and muscles of living animals. These powerful senses help them find their food. Sharks eat fish, other sharks, and plants that live in the ocean. Some sharks will eat just about anything. Many unusual things have been found in the stomachs of some tiger sharks. They include shoes, dogs, a cow’s foot and metal protective clothing.Sharks grow slowly. Many kinds of sharks are not able to reproduce until they are twenty-five years old. Some reproduce only every two years. And they give birth to fewer than ten younger sharks.About forty percent of the different kinds of sharks lay eggs. The others give birth to live young. Some sharks carry their young inside their bodies, with a cord(脐带) connecting the fetus to the mother, as humans do.Scientists are beginning to understand the importance of sharks to humans. Medical researchers want to learn more about the shark's defense system against disease. They know that sharks recover quickly from injuries. Sharks appear never to suffer cancer or heart diseases. Many people believe that the shark’s soft bones can help prevent cancer. Scientists have questioned this idea. Yet they still study the shark in the hope of finding a way to fight human disease.Most sharks live in warm waters, but some can be found in very cold areas. Most sharks live in the oceans. However, the bull shark leaves ocean waters to enter freshwater rivers and lakes. They have been found in the Zambezi River in Africa, the Mississippi River in the United States and Lake Nicaragua in southwestern Nicaragua.Sharks are important for the health of the world’s oceans. They eat injured and diseased fish. Their hunting activities mean that the numbers of other fish in the ocean do not become too great. This protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans.61. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. A shark is the cruelest animal in the world.B. Sharks eat anything they meet in the ocean.C. A shark has a very excellent receiving system.D. Sharks live in the ocean.62. Which statement is TRUE according to Paragraph 2-3?A. Most sharks give birth to ten young sharks only.B. Some give birth to babies only every third year.C. Many kinds of sharks are able to give birth to babies before twenty.D. About sixty percent of the sharks give birth to live young.63. What does the underlined word “fetus” refer to in Paragraph 3?A. Unborn sharks.B. Sharks’ eggs.C. Sharks’ bodies.D. Humans.64. Which of the following do all the scientists agree with?A. The shark’s soft bones can help prevent cancer.B. Sharks are important to humans.C. Sharks never suffer from any disease.D. Ways will be found to fight human disease in the near future.65. We know the following facts from the passage EXCEPT ______.A. sharks’ dietsB. sharks’ abilities against diseasesC. sharks’ lifetimeD. sharks’ reproductionCWhen you walk into a room on the 17th floor of Cop enhagen’s Bella Sky Hotel, you’ll be greeted by soft roses and other fresh flowers, fruits, fashion magazines, and a bathroom with beauty products. This is Europe’s first hotel floor dedicated(专用的)entirely to women—and according to the hotel’s CEO Arne Ban g Mikkelsen, it is designed by women, for women.“Women’s hotel preferences(偏爱)are very different from men’s with key priorities(优先考虑的事)being to feel safe and comfortable. When men come into a hotel room, the first thing they do is check the view, turn on the TV, plug in their computer, and check out the fridge. Women, on the other hand, go straight to the bathroom. Does it smell nice? Is it clean? Does it have a nice bathtub and shower?”Unlike other hotels, it seemed like someone actually thought about what women wanted. To get it right, the hotel asked a number of women what they wanted, and added to their list of things like cleanliness, a nice bathroom, high-powered hairdryers, steam irons, cosmetic mirrors, healthy choices on the room service menus, and full-body mirrors.It seems that they are helped by the boom(繁荣)in female business travelers. Global numbers are hard to get, but a research report shows women account for about half of all business travelers in the US in 2010, up from approximately 25% in 1991.Places like the Naumi Hotel in Singapore, the Premier Hotel in New York, the London Dukes Hotel and the Georgian Court Hotel in Vancouver seem to be realizing the possibility in catering(迎合)for women.At the London Dukes Hotel, the manager says bookings(预订)for their “Duchess Rooms”,which are standard rooms with fresh flowers, fruit, and styling things, have increased 25% over the past year.66. We can learn from the text that Bella Sky Hotel _______.A. is the first hotel designed for womenB. offers special service to women guestsC. has a big garden with all kinds of flowersD.can arrange rooms according to guests’ wishes67. Paragraph 2 mainly wants to tell us _______.A. men are wiser in choosing hotelsB. guests usually care about fort mostC. women differ from men in judging a hotelD.hotels have difficulty satisfying each guest68. What can we learn from the text?A. Men guests usually don’t care about hotels’ cleanliness.B. Living in a hotel, women guests may consider their safety.C. Women business travelers spend more than men in hotels.D. In the US the number of women travelers is higher than men.69. The example of the London Dukes Hotel is used to show ________.A. London is known for hotel managementB. guests like to experience different hotelsC. the new hotel service is very popularD. hotel industry is developing rapidly70. What is the text mainly about?A. How to run hotels.B. A new practice in hotel service.C. Different hotels’ service in the world.D.Differences between men and women hotel guests.Part ⅣWriting(35 marks)Section A (10 marks)Complete the following sentences:71. Polly found herself staring up at the face of an old man (长着络腮胡子)72.It gives me the chance to (回报帮助) that people give me when it’s sunny.73.In the main type, the shark attacks you because it (把你错当成了鱼),but when it tastes human flesh it decides to give up and swims away.74.In the second type, the shark pushes you with its nose to find out if you (适合被食用)75.Scientists are interested in whether the sense of smell (与庝痛有关).76.One explanation is that women’s sense of smell is better developed than (男性)77.

knows,there is far more to a family meal than food.Sociologist(社会心理学家)Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes.They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children.But as the number of children gets larger,conversation g ives way to the parents’ efforts to control(控制)the loud noise they make.That can have an important effect on the children.“In general the more question-asking the parents do,the higher the children’s IQ scores.”Lewis says,“And the more children there are,the less question-asking there is.”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹).Lewis found that in families with three or four children,dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child,who has the most to talk about,and the youngest,who needs the most attention.“Middle children are invisible(看不见的),”says Lewis.“When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner,chances are it’s the middle child.” There is,however,one thing that stops all conversations and prevents anyone from having attention:“When the TV is on,” Lewis says,“ dinner is a non-event.”1.The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ________.A.show the relationship between parents and childrenB.teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC.report on the findings of a studyD.give information about family problems2.Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ________.A.they are busy serving food to their childrenB.they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableC.they have to pay more attention to younger childrenD.they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family3.By saying “Middle children are invisible” in Paragraph 3,Lewis means that middle children ________.A.have to help their parents to serve dinnerB.get the least attention from the familyC.are often kept away from the dinner tableD.find it hard to keep up with other children4.Lewis’ research provides an answer to the question ________.A.why TV is important in family lifeB.why parents should keep good orderC.why children in small families seem to be quieterD.why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life5.Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A.It is important to have the right food for children.B.It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.C.Parents should talk to each of their children often.D.Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner.Ⅴ.阅读表达People visit other countries for many reasons.Some travel on business;others travel to visit interesting places that are only found in other countries,such as the Taj Mahal in India,or the temples of Thailand.Wherever you go,and for whatever reason,it is important to be safe.A tourist can attract a lot of attention from local people.Do not expect everyone you meet to be friendly and helpful as in your home country.It is important to prepare for your trip in advance,and to take precautions(预防措施)while you are traveling.As you prepare for your trip,make sure you have the right paperwork.You don’t want to get to your goal only to find you have the wrong visa,or worse,that your passport is about to expire(期满).Also,make sure you travel with proper medical insurance,so that if ________ during your travels,you will be able to get treatment.Buy a guidebook and read about the local customs of the country you are going to.When you get to your goal,use official transport.Always go to bus and taxi stations; don’t accept rides from strangers who offer you a lift.If you prefer to stay in cheap hotels while traveling,make sure you can lock the door of your room from the inside.If you are traveling with valuables such as jewelry,or a lot of cash,you should ask about a safe for storing them in.Finally,remember to smile.Smiling_is_the_friendliest_and_most_sincere_form_of_communication,and_is_sure_to_be_understood_in_any_part_of_the_world!1.Try to give the passage a proper title.(no more than 5 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2.Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence.(no more than 5

Somehow he knew he was 34.One day Chico got especially excited. He paced back and forth and made an incredible amount of35. Then all of a sudden he stopped and let out an even louder scream.

Finally, I made him a firm promise that I would let him42every day if the weather was nice as long as he did come back. 43, he flew onto my shoulder.From that day on, whenever the weather was good I would let him out early and he would fly around and be back before dark.

The high price likely comes from the diamond’s unusual color as well as its brilliant setting. Bulgari is a company beloved by the Hollywood celebrities(名人), and blue diamonds are rarely up for sale. This particular blue diamond also happens to be a large mass of ice at 5. 3 carats.The diamond is a“fancy deep-blue(花式深蓝)”stone. According to Bonhams, less than 1 percent of all diamonds mined are blue diamond s. “Blue diamonds, especially those over 5. 00 carats, are extremely rare to see on the market and continue to be highly sought-after, ”Jean Ghika, the director of Bonhams’ European jewelry department, said in a statement. “We are honored to have handled t he sale of such a unique precious stone. ”The previous record for the price of a diamond per carat was $1. 68 million, according to Bonhams.51.

Although they made a modest living for their family of 10, they insisted on sharing with those less fortunate.Half a century later, Mrs. Cooper became a beloved volunteer at the San Diego Food Bank, where she devoted herself to helping others. She organized and ran a distribution center of a church, helping it become the organization’s largest emergency food distribution center in San Diego. She was one of the 25 outstanding senior volunteers in the nation selected and invited to Washington D. C. to receive an award.“She was the main person who helped us make that program grow, ” said Mike Doody,former director of the Food Bank. “She had a way of getting people to work together and to work hard. She was determined and stubborn, but in a good way. She had a good heart. ”People knew her as “Grandma” because of her selflessness and her devotion to helping hungry children and families. “She reminded people of their Grandma, ” Doody said.As a widow with a young child in 1979, Mrs. Cooper was helped through a difficult financial time when the Food Bank provided her with groceries. “She devoted her life to giving back, ”said her daughter, Monica Cooper. It wasn’t unusual for a local church to call Mrs. Cooper to ask her to aid a needy family. “She would give people food out of her cupboard. Sometimes we would cook a meal for a family living in their car, ”Monica Cooper said.Although Mrs. Cooper was honored to receive the national award for her volunteer work, she said being able to help others was her reward. She died of liver disease and kidney failure, aged 93.55. The underlined word “charity” in Paragraph 1 refers to.A. offering helpB. donating moneyC. providing servicesD. showing sympathy56.

Mrs. Cooper’s story suggests that.A. everyone needs a grandma nearbyB. children are what their parents areC. a sound mind is in a sound bodyD. a mother’s l ove never changesCFor tourists tired of traditional sightseeing tours, one Berlin tour guide is offering something altogether different: a tour of Berlin’s public conveniences.Tour guide Anna Haase wanted to take visitors to Berlin off the beaten track and came up with the novel idea of showing them some of the German capital’s most famous toilets.She takes groups around the city’s lavatories, telling them about the history of the toilet’s development from biblical times to the present day and showing them toilets ranging from the oldest and most primitive to the newest and most technical.Haase came up with the idea of taking a closer look at Berlin’s “WCs” after attending th e annual International Tourist Guide Day in 2005 in Berlin, when the theme was “oases of calm”.“I thought my colleagues would probably all do tours of parks and churches, but I wanted to break a taboo and explain the history of Berlin’s hygiene and toilet culture, ”she told Reuters.Highlights of the tour include a visit to a toilet block dating from the late 19th century and a trip to the Kaiser’s fully restored bathroom at the Potsdamer Platz square.She also wants to use the tour to draw attention to the lack of toilets for tour groups in Berlin.Haase says that the toilet tours are in demand, especially from clubs and societies, as well as from people with a specialist or professional interest in the topic.“At first people tend to turn their nose up, but then they are generally surprised at the interesting facts that they learn about on the tour, ”she said.In keeping with the tour’s theme, the meeting point is at the 19th century toilet block at the Gendarmenmarkt square, while a restaurant calle d “The Loo” is the finishing point. There tourists are shown a Japanese automatic toilet which costs as much as a small car, according to Haase.59. What did Anna Haase mean by saying “I wanted to break a taboo”?A. She had to do her job well.B. She wanted to break the routine.C. She wanted to have a break.D. She was eager to work with other guides.60. What can be learnt from the text?A.

There are no enough toilets for tour groups in Berlin.61. Why is “The Loo” chosen as the finishing point of the tour?A. It’s a famous restaurant.B. The toilet there has a long history.C. It’s where an automatic toilet lies.D. It stands near the Gendarmenmarkt square.62. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A. Berlin—Tourist ResortB. Toilets—Public FacilitiesC. Famous Guide—Anna HaaseD. Special Tour—Famous ToiletsDThe Leshan Giant Buddha is a statue of Maitreya(弥勒大佛)in sitting posture. The Buddha is located in Sichuan Province, facing Min River, Qingyi River and Dadu River. In December, 1996, the Buddha was included by UNESCO on the list of the World Heritage(世界遗产).The statue was begun in the year 713 in the Tang Dynasty, and finished in the year 803. The Buddha is 71 meters high. The 8-meter-long instep(脚背)is big enough for one hundred people to sit on and the 28-meter-wide shoulder is large enough to be a basketball playground.A monk called Hai Tong is connected with the Buddha forever. At that time, wild waters brought out many boat accidents and people just put the disaster down to the presence of a water spirit. So Hai Tong decided to make a statue beside the river thinking that the Buddha would bring the water spirit under control. After 20 years’ begging from door to door, he finally collected enough money for the plan. When some local government officials tried to get this amount ofmoney, Hai Tong said that they could get his eyeballs but not the money raised for the Buddha. After he dug out his eyeballs, these officials ran away scared. The project was half done when Hai Tong passed away, and two of his disciples(门徒)continued the work. After a t otal of 90 years’ hard work, the project was finally completed.Having such a long history, the Buddha was nearly destroyed by the wind and rain. The Chinese government began the repairing work in 1963 under the instructions of experts from UNESCO.63. W hat’s the main idea of this passage?A. To explain the Leshan Giant Buddha briefly.B. To tell us how the Leshan Giant Buddha was built.C. To say where the Leshan Giant Buddha is.D. To mention how the Leshan Giant Buddha came into the World Heritage.64. How did Hai Tong get the money for the Buddha?A. By calling for donation.B. By working on the river.C. By asking the government.D. By selling his eyeballs.65. According to the passage, the Leshan Giant Buddha.A. was completed when Hai Tong was aliveB. didn’t exist nowC. played a good role in controlling the riverD. has been a World Heritage site for over ten years66. In this passage, Hai Tong can be best described as.A. generousB. cruelC. easy-goingD. long-sufferingESeventy-three-year-old Gary selected his food in Value Mart more carefully than NASA chose its candidates for the space shuttle. Skim milk was $2. 99, on sale from $3. 49; white bread, 89 cents with a discount; table salt, 99 cents, 20 cents off the regular price. Leaving the cashier(收银员), he estimated that he had saved 80 cents today. He was pleased that he had gotgood value for his money again.At the exit, the cold wind reminded him of his gloves. “Now where are they? ”Not in the coat pockets. Not in the grocery bag, either. The worried man made a thorough search of all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. Now he was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store.Old Gary had bought the black gloves at a 25% discount ten years ago. His quick decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as poorer passengers stared at him enviously. Losing this favorite possession was almost like losing a child to him.Gary re-entered the store with long steps. He followed the same route he had walked before. There were all open passages and it did not take long to be convinced that the gloves were not in sight.“Society has changed; people have changed, ”he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if somebody picked up something lost, they would give it back. Not any more! ”On his way out, he went over to the cashier to ask if she had received any lost gloves. She asked him what colour they were, and when he s aid “black” , there came a disappointing answer. He took his time now, finally walking out of the store.Back home, Gary was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. He was very upset that people no longer returned things they found on the road.After a month, Gary decided to buy another leather pair. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office. “What colour are they?” the woman in the office asked again. “Black, ” he gave the same answer. She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves. “Are they? ”“Yes! Those are mine! ”Gary exclaimed, his eyes glowing with joy.67. According to the passage, Gary thought his buying the gloves to be.A. unnecessaryB. wiseC. hot-headedD. adventurous68. What can we infer about Gary?A. He is not rich.B. He is particular about food.C. He holds a pessimistic attitude towards life.D. He doesn’t get along well with his neighborhood.69. In Gary’s opinion, why couldn’t he recover his gloves at first?A. He was not careful enough.B. The cashier forgot to return his gloves.C. A customer took his gloves by mistake.D. Someone picked up his gloves and kept them on purpose.70. What is the best title for this passage?A. Seeking glovesB. The stolen gloves returnedC. Declining moral standardsD. A forgetful but stubborn old man第四部分书面表达(共两节, 满分50分)第一节完成句子(共10小题; 每小题2分, 满分20分)阅读下列各小题, 根据汉语提示, 用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

It is warmer and sunnier. The trees have leaves again and the flowers are blooming. The season represents hope, joy and beauty. However, not all songs about spring are happy. This song I Dream of Spring by K. D. Lang is about dreaming of spring in cold dark places. She recorded itin2008.Unlike the other seasons, there are not many rock songs about spring. Most of the songs about this season were written in the1930s and1940s by famous modern composers. The songs became popular songs recorded by many singers. Here is one example, It Might as Well Be Spring. Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein wrote the song for the movie State Fair in1945. Frank Sinatra sings a bout having“spring fever”. This is not a real sickness. It is a feeling of restlessness or excitement brought on by the coming of spring.Richard Rodgers also wrote Spring Is Here, this time with Lorenz Hart. Ella Fitzgerald sings this song about feeling lonely during this season. Frank Loesser wrote this sad song, Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year. Why has the season been delayed? Because the singer’s lover has left her. Sarah Vaughn released her version of the song in1953.By now you may be thinking, “Enough with the sad songs! ”OK. Then how about cowboy songs? Gene Autry was one of America’s most famous singing cowboys. He recorded When It’s Springtime in the Rockies in 1937.In most of the United States, spring is a warm and pleasant season. But this is not the case in the northwestern state of Alaska. According to Johnny Cash, it can be extremely cold. He sings When It’s Springtime in Alaska(It’s forty below).51. Which of the following statements about the song I Dream of Spring might NOT be true?A. It was recorded in2008.B. It is a very happy song.C. It was sung by K.D. Lang.D.

It Might as Well Be SpringD. Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year53. In the song Spring Is Here, Ella Fitzgerald expressed the feeling of being.A. restless in springB. lonely in springC. excited in springD. happy in spring54. What do we know about Gene Autry?A. He was a famous singing cowboy.B. He wrote many sad songs about spring.C. He didn’t become famous until1940s.D.

Sonya Hall, 33, of Denny Avenue, Lancaster, had only just learnt resuscitation(恢复知觉)techniques at a first aid course the day before when she found herself needing to use them on her three-year-old daughter Tilly.Sonya, who also has a son Emmen, six, had just finished a first aid course at Lune Park Children’s Centre in Lancaster, when she was faced with every parent’s worst nightm are when Tilly went blue in the face and stopped breathing. But thanks to her newly acquired skills, Sonya managed to make Tilly breathe using mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and chest compressions(压缩).Sonya said, “Tilly was playing with her brother and the y were fighting over a toy. Emmen won the fight and Tilly fell backwards and banged her head. She was face down and shaking and at first I thought she was angry. But then I saw Tilly went blue in the face and she had stopped breathing. Something just took over and I reacted without thinking and immediately started using the first aid skills I had learnt the day before which were so fresh in my mind. I began doing mouth-to-mouth and chest compressions. It probably took about a minute before Tilly started bre athing again, but to me it felt like a lifetime. ”After getting Tilly breathing again, Sonya called an ambulance and the doctors took over. Since then, Tilly has been diagnosed with Reflex Anoxic Seizure(反射缺氧发作). Sonya said, “The seizure can happen when there’s any unexpected pain, fear or fright. It is just so lucky that the day before it happened I had been practising the first aid skills. ”The Empowering Parents First Aid course is run by Lancashire Adult Learning. Sonya said, “I am just so glad I did the course and learnt the first aid skills. I always feared I would not know what to do in a crisis situation, but luckily I had the knowledge and skills to deal with it. ”55.

Tilly and Emmen fought with each other in order to.A. learn the first aid skillsB. get the chance to play with a toyC. have more food to eatD. try a chest compression method58. The minute before Tilly started breathing made Sonya feel like a lifetime because.A. she used up all her strength to do mouth-to-mouthB. she was very worried about the safety of her daughterC. she was not very experienced in chest compressionsD. she didn’t know which was the best way to save her daughterCAlmost 40 years ago, a community service organization started providing eye care in Gujarat State, in western India.The Rotary Club of Navsari operates an eye hospital and9area eye centers in and around Navsari, whose services are for the poorest people.The group opened the hospital, the Rotary Eye Institute of Navsari, in1970. Institute officials say India has only about one ophthalmologist for every 120, 000people. The institute, however, has ten such specially trained eye doctors. It has restored or improved the eyesight of thousands of patients. Many people are far from the city. Teams from it travel as far as150kilometers to see patients. People go to their nearest camp, for conditions includingglaucoma(青光眼), night blindness and other problems. Some people are found to have cataracts(白内障), abnormal growths on the eye that can lead to loss of eyesight. India has about13million people with the condition cataract patients get free operations to correct the problem.Rotary groups also operate eye banks. Doctors at these centers replace damaged eyes with the healthy eyes of donors who have just died. One such center is the Rotary Rajan Eye Bank. It operates in cooperation with the Rajan Eye Care Hospital in Chennai. The Eye Bank opened in1996. Hundreds of patients have received new corneas(眼角膜)from donors since then. The cornea is the clear front part of the eye that transmits light. 2million people in India are blind because of problems of the cornea. The Rotary Rajan Eye Bank holds continuing eye donation campaigns. It urges people to leave the gift of sight to others when they die.59. Which of the following is TRUE about the Rotary Club of Navsari?A. The Rotary Club of Navsari is a community service organization.B. The Rotary Eye Institute of Navsari has only one eye doctor.C.

According to the last paragraph, the Rotary Rajan Eye Bank gets new corneas mainly by.A. cloningB. donatingC. cooperatingD. forcing62. The author develops the passage mainly by.A. providing typical examplesB. making a definitionC. comparing two different areasD. presenting two examples and drawing a conclusionDIn this age of media technology where the Internet is playing a more and more important role in our lives, how do you usually get information? For many students and office workers, their first step is the search engine Google. For any information they want, they simply type in a key word, click “enter”, and within seconds relevant web pages appear.So are people still reading books? The answer is surely yes. It’s simply not realistic to use a computer to read a novel. But reading habits in China, and other countries, are changing. Mr. Li, a businessman, says his purpose of reading is to get practical knowledge. “I like stories of successful people and books that give advice on how people become successful. Besides, I read books with basic knowledge. ”said Li.“I like funny books, especially Japanese funny books, ”said Xing Mingyan, a junior student, who reads purely for entertainment.“I like to read cookbooks, ”said Miss Zhang, an office worker, who usually reads magazi nes, “And I usually buy fashion magazines. ”It seems that the purposes of reading have changed a lot. People don’t tend to read for entertainment as much. They usually read to learn. Books that teach people how to be more successful, wealthier or more beautiful stay on the best-seller charts for a long time. People are also interested in buying funny books and magazines. Just remember how the funny novels of Jimmy Liao took China and other countries by storm.But educators say reading is important to teach people and also to develop their imaginations and language skills. No matter whether you like to read or not, why not turn off the computer and television and read a good book, make yourself comfortable and open the door to another world?63. We learn from the second paragraph that.A. Mr. Li likes books that give him basic knowledgeB. Mr. Li is a very successful businessmanC. it is hard for readers to buy books that they are interested inD. books are playing a more important role in our lives64. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Educators say reading is useful in improving people’s language skills.B. Xing Mingyan, a senior student, especially likes Japanese funny books.C. Jimmy Liao’s serious stories made him well-known in China and other countries.D. Miss Zhang likes reading funny magazines and fashion magazines.65. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. People shouldn’t watch TV or get information from the Internet.B. People’s reading habits and purposes are changing.C. A lot of people like reading.D. Books are more popular than the Internet.66. This passage is most probably.A. an advertisementB. a newspaper reportC. an English speechD. popular readingEGenerations of children grew up reading comic(漫画)books secretly, hiding out from parents and teachers who saw them as a waste of time and a risk to young minds. Comics are now gaining a new respectability at school. That is thanks to an increasingly popular and creative program, often aimed at struggling readers, that encourages children to plot, write and draw comic books, inmany cases using themes from their own lives.The Comic Book Project was started in2001by Michael Bitz at an elementary school in Queens. Since its creation, the program, which is mainly conducted after school, has spread to more than850schools across the country. It has gotten a big push from the current craze(狂热)among adolescents for comic book clubs and for Manga, a wildly popular variety of comicoriginating in Japan.The p oint is not to drop a comic book on a child’s desk and say “Read this. ”Rather, the workshops give groups of students the opportunity to collaborate(合著)on often complex stories and characters that they then revise, publish and share with others in their communities.Teachers are finding it easier to teach writing, grammar and punctuation with material that students are fully invested in(投入). And it turns out that comic books have other built-in advantages. The pairing of visual and written plotlines that they rely on appears to be especially helpful to struggling readers. No one is suggesting that comic books should substitute for traditional books or for standard reading and composition lessons. Teachers who would once have dismissed comics out of hand are learning to exploit(利用)a style that clearly has a powerful hold on young minds. They are using what works.67. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A. Japanese Comic Books.B. Comic Books in the Classroom.C. Reading Efficiently.D. A Current Craze.68.

Whether he’s a hand in construction or sitting behind the desk working on a computer, everyone has some ideas of what is an attractive career. However, making a career choice is not simply a matter of following a dream; for most people it means a lot of research and soul searching. Choosing the right career becomes one of the most important decisions of an individual’s life.It used to be that one followed in the footsteps of their father or grandfather or took over the family business when it came to making a career choice. These days, a career path can start anywhere and then veer off into something totally different.Career choices must be realistic and well thought out. It is not uncommon for persons to starta career path and realize they have made a terrible mistake, feeling as if it may be too late to turn around. Not only does a career choice concern your strongest skills and interest, it is also something that you will be doing continuously to bring in income. This is why a career choice can be such a personal decision. Formerly it used to be unusual for someone to change occupations or careers more than once or twice in a lifetime; it is now even more unusual to keep the same career during someone’s working life.There are a great many measures in helping one choose the right profession. A number of websites offering tools such as career tests and information, educational resources, resume services and the kind can be found. It is important for one to research one’s career in this changing economy situation, and choose the best from several related career choices.51. According to the author, choosing the right career.A. is not difficult at allB. needs a lot of dreamsC. is an interesting thingD. needs a lot of thoughts52. The underlined phrase “veer off” in the second paragraph probably means “”.A. set out to do the same jobB. change the former courseC. compare two different thingsD. dream of getting an easy job53. Nowadays it is common for one to.A. change his job oftenB. do the same job all his lifeC. find a few good jobs at a timeD. live without a job for many years54. All of the following are the tools on profession offered by websites EXCEPT .A. tests and informationB. training coursesC. employers’ phone numbersD. instructions on resumeBIt was shortly after her daughter was born in 2005 that Deng Zhixin gave birth to an idea to help children who had been abandoned(抛弃)by their parents.While exchanging ideas online with a group of new moms on how to take care of children, Deng came across stories of children born with diseases being left by their parents on the street or in hospitals.“My original intention was to find medical aid for those kids, and give them the love they deserve as much as other children, ”said Deng, 41.With a group of mothers in Beijing in 2007, Deng cofounded(共同创立)Angel Mom, an organization that helps poor orphans who might die without receiving timely medical treatment.Angel Mom collects funds from wealthy people to provide medical help for the disabled children and finds adoptive parents for them.“We concentrated on seeking financial support for their operations and finding them a family capable of and truly willing to adopt them, ”she said.Weeks ago, Deng quit her job for the third time in three years. Before she quit, she was the Chief Financial Operator in a company with an annual salary of more than 500, 000 yuan.“I couldn’t handle the heavy work while taking care of the children at the same time, ”Deng said.Angel Mom now maintains cooperation with more than 15 hospitals across the country.As soon as a child arrives, Deng and her partners immediately start seeking financial help from wealthy people through personal relationships or accept assistance from certain charities(慈善机构), such as Smile Angel Foundation, founded in 2006 by Chinese singer Faye Wong and her husband Li Yapeng to help children with cleft lips.“It usually takes days or even weeks to find someone who would like to donate(捐赠)a sufficient amount if the child’s illness doesn’t meet the charity funds’ requirements, ” Deng said, adding that six children have passed away, some due to lack of timely medication.“For me, those children mean responsibility. Sometimes I wish I could let them go but they are already pa rt of my life, ”Deng continued, “I chose a special life, but I don’t think I’m special. ”55. Which of the following can best describe Deng Zhixin?A. Kind-hearted, stubborn, changeable.B. Responsible, kind-hearted, helpful.C. Helpful, lovable, intelligent.D.

Seek financial help for the children from the government.D. Help to find the parents who abandoned the children.58. What Deng said in the last but one paragraph mainly suggests.A. the charity funds’ requirements are too highB. timely medication can prevent sick children from dyingC. they sometimes have difficulty in finding people willing to donateD. when it comes to donation, people should be generousCPALM COAST-Agatha Lee described her reaction as “disbelief” when School Board Chairwoman Sue Dickinson called her name last Thursday night at Flagler Auditorium.Lee, a second-grade teacher at Belle Terre Elementary School, was named Flagler County’s Teacher of the Year today. “I was in such a great group of excellent teachers and I was just shocked. ”Lee said in an interview after the announcement.Every Flagler school names a Teacher of the Year once a year and those nominees(候选人)are considered for the district’s award. That winner, along with winners from the state’s other districts, is then considered for the Florida Teacher of the Year Award, which is announced in July.To be qualified for the teaching award, teachers must encourage continuous learning, show skillfulness in their subject area, use creative teaching strategies(策略), show leadership and create a caring and respectful environment.Jill Stirling, a kindergarten teacher, Flagler’s 2010 Teacher of the Year, said she also met winners from throughout the state to share teaching strategies and the best practices. “I often think of those little people that have made me the teacher I am and the person tha t I am, ” Stirling said.Lee, the following new winner, who is now in her thirteenth year of teaching, came to Flagler County in 2004 after working in Pasco and St. Johns counties. She worked at the former Indian Trails K-8 school and came to Belle Terre Elementary School when it opened in fall 2005.Lee, who comes from a family of teachers, said she has always enjoyed being with children.“I love watching their faces when they have that ‘aha’ moment, ”she said.59. How did Agatha Lee feel when she was crowned Flagler County’s Teacher of the Year?A. Excited.B. Astonished.C. Satisfied.D. Proud.60. What did you know about Agatha Lee from the passage?A. Her parents are probably also teachers.B. She worked in four counties altogether.C. She has taught in Flagler County since 2005.D. She once shared teaching strategies with Jill Stirling.61. To be a Flagler Teacher of the Year, one is required to.A. perform life-long learningB. show ability of leadershipC. be careful and respectfulD. share teaching strategies62. Which of the following is correct in order of time according to the passage?①Lee came to Flagler County.②Lee taught in Indian Trails K-8 school.③Lee was named Flagler County’s 2011 Teacher of the Year.④Lee worked in Pasco and St. Johns counties.⑤Lee was named as Teacher of the Year by Belle Terre Elementary School.A. ①④②③⑤B. ④②①⑤③C. ④①②⑤③D. ①②⑤③④DFarming is moving indoors, where the sun never shines, where rainfall is irrelevant(不相干的)and where the climate is always right. The perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light, temperature, wetness, air quality and nutrition. It could be in a New York high-rise or a sprawling complex in the Sa udi desert. It may be an answer to the world’s food problems.The world is already having trouble feeding itself. Half the people on Earth live in cities, and nearly half of those—about 3 billion—are hungry or ill-fed. Food prices, currently increasing, are buffeted by dryness, floods and the cost of energy required to plant, harvest and transport. And prices will only get more unstable. Climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain. Farmers in many parts of the world are already using water available to the last drop. And the world is getting more crowded: by mid-century, the global population will grow from 6. 8 billion to 9 billion.To feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness, or finding ways to completely increase crop output.Gertjan Meeuws has taken the concept of a greenhouse a step further, growing vegetables and house plants in enclosed(封闭的)and regulated environments. In their research station, water flows into the pans when needed, and the temperature is kept constant. Lights go on and off, creating similar day and night, but according to the rhythm of the plant.A building of 100 square meters and layers(层)of plants could provide a daily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables to the entire population of Den Bosch, about 140, 000 people. Their idea is not to grow foods that require much space, like corn or potatoes.Here sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful. Plants need only specific wavelengths of light to grow. Their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions. They use about 90 percent less water than outdoors agriculture. And city farming means producing food near the consumer, and there’s no need to transport it long distances.63. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. The climate is worse and worse.B. The city people live a hard life.C. The world has difficulty feeding its people.D. The world’s population is increasing fast.64. The underlined word “buffeted” in Paragraph 2 means“”.A. badly affectedB. preventedC. demandedD. well achieved65. It can be inferred from the text that Gertjan Meeuws’s farming.A. helps save sea water a lotB. suits different conditionsC. is similar to greenhouse agricultureD. suits the production of corn66. What is the text mainly about?A. Development of indoor farming.B. Great Revolution in farming.C. Advantages of indoor farming.D. Sunless, rainless indoor farming.EDo American children still learn handwriting in school? In the age of the keyboard, some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out. 90% of teachers say they are required to teach handwriting. But studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it. One study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting. Some teachers are teaching handwriting by providing instruction for ten to fifteen minutes a day, and then other teachers who basically teach it for sixty to seventy minutes a day—which really for handwriting is pretty much death.Many adults remember learning that way—by copying letters over and over again. Today’s thinking is that short periods of practice are better. Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself. Instead, they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas. After all, that is why we write.Handwriting involves two skills. One is legibility, which means forming the letters so they can be read. The other is fluency—writing without having to think about it. Fluency continues to develop up until high school.But not everyone masters these skills. Teachers commonly report that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting. Some people might think handwriting is not important any morebecause of computers and voice recognition programs.But Steve Graham at Vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school, especially in the early years. American children traditionally first learn to print, and then to write in cursive(连笔, 草书), which connects the letters. But guess what we learned from a spokeswoman for the College Board, which administers the SAT college admission test—more than 75% of students choose to print their essays on the test rather than write in cursive.67. We can infer from the first paragraph that.A. teachers spend little time in teaching handwritingB. most teachers attach importance to teaching handwritingC. handwriting teaching is not commonly requiredD. most teachers are at a loss on how to teach handwriting68. Which of the following about traditional handwriting in the USA is NOT true?A. The students are taught by practicing a long period.B. Printing is taught first in preference to writing in cursive.C. Handwriting is taught for its own sake.D. Two skills get involved in handwriting.69. Some American people consider handwriting not important any more because .A. all the American children learn to print firstB. about 1/4 of the students choose to print their essays on the testC. it is unnecessary to use handwriting in the age of keyboardD. computers and voice recognition programs are widely used70. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Handwriting: Fascinating in Keyboard AgeB. Right or Wrong: the Death of HandwritingC. Two Skills Involved in HandwritingD. Handwriting Lessons on the Way out第四部分书面表达(共两节, 满分50分)第一节完成句子(共10小题; 每小题2分, 满分20分)阅读下列各小题, 根据汉语提示, 用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

Bose has a large circle of friends, and there‟s one who you may have heard of: President Obama. He has twice publicly recognized her achievements in cancer research and spoken with her in the Oval Office.If that isn‟t enough, Bose recently gave a TED Talk about her work with the cancer drug Cisplatin, which also won her first prize at the Google Science Fair and recognition as one of Glamour magazine‟s Young Amazing Women of the Year.After watching her grandfather struggle with liver cancer, Bose was determined to help out in any way she could. As a high school student though, her scientific choices were limited. She reached out to various hospitals and research centers, but doctors turned down her requests because they felt she was too inexperienced medically.Only the North Texas Science Health Center respected her determination and chose to guide her. The results were amazing.Bose chose to study a protein (蛋白质) and its reaction with the cancer drug Cisplatin. She noticed that when she prevented this protein from growing, Cisplatin was allowed to begin destroying cancer cells once again.“My project not only contributes to the understanding of the relationship between the protein and Cisplatin, but also suggests a newer, more effective treatment for patients who resist Cisplatin,” Bose said.Bose‟s achievements aren‟t limited to the lab, though. She was also captain of her swim team and editor-in-chief of her school paper.Bose is currently getting practical experience at the National Institute of Health and she‟ll be attending Harvard in the fall. She plans to study molecular biology and go to medical school. Eventually, she would like to be a doctor.28. President Obama has spoken with Bose because she ______.A. gave a TED Talk recentlyB. is captain of her swim teamC. has a large circle of friendsD. contributed to the cancer research29. According to Bose‟s research, ______ helps make Cisplatin work better.A. stopping the protein from growingB. destroying cancer cells timelyC. using the drug more frequentlyD. making the protein react with the drug30. From the passage, we know that _____.A. Bose‟s research was supported from the startB. Bose plans to become a doctor in the futureC. Bose will study in the National Institute of HealthD. Bose‟s grandfather asked her to do cancer research31. The passage is mainly about _____.A. a research on cancer drugsB. a new effective cancer treatmentC. a doctor who has a promising futureD. a girl who did research on cancer treatmentDWhat will man be like in the future — in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we maysuppose that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain‟s capacity(容量). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need our brains more and more, and finally we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over long period of time it is likely that man‟s eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.32. The passage mainly tells us that __________.A. Ma n‟s life will be different in the futureB. Future man will look quite different from usC. Man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD. Man‟s organs‟ functions will change33. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.B. Man‟s hair is getting thinner and thinner.C. Man‟s arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.34. The change in man‟s size of the forehead is probably because __________.A. he makes use of only 20% of the brain‟s capacityB. his brain has grown larger over the past centuriesC. he will use his brain more and more as time goes onD. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time35. Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesn‟t have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feels in a different way.第二节(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。
