Little Pear is a 5-year-old naughty boy living in a Chinese village, and each short chapter brings a new adventure in his family's life. The series offers children a window into a different world, described in language perfectly fit for a young child's sense of curiosity, excitement, and danger.We're Going on a Bear Hunt(Classic Board Books), by Michael Rosen and Helen OxenburyNow young readers can join in the fun with this Classic Board Book edition of We're Going on a Bear Hunt. Full of delightful comedy, this tale of a brave family's joyous journey is sure to win new fans.The Wayside School series, by Louis SacharThe Wayside School series attracted me a lot when I read Mrs. Gorf turned all the children into apples. These books might be my all-time favorites to read aloud. Are they inspiring stories or morality tales(道德故事)or just comments on the educational system? Thanks to the gift of Louis Sachar, they're all three. The fact that he based the characters on actual students he taught at a California public school makes children love reading these stories more.The Tashi series, by Anna FienbergWho is Tashi? Is he the imaginary friend of a boy named Jack, or a real boy who's lived an unbelievable life? The Tashi series has been Australian bestsellers. I once recommended Tashi to a friend, who brought it along on a camping trip with her family.

An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook—a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on, but even ordinary men now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 young Einstein had been world-famous. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited chances for study, but soon his peace and quiet life were broken by World War Ⅰ.Einstein hated fighting and killing. The great suffering of the war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work. In the years following World War Ⅰ, honours were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people. He was well known for his humble(谦逊的)manners. He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honoured in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.(1)The main idea of the first paragraph is ________.A.the difficulty of Einstein's thought to othersB.the feeling of an American university president towards EinsteinC.the difference between science and historyD.the change in human thought produced by Einstein(2)From the second paragraph, we know Albert Einstein ________.A.enjoyed world popularityB.became head of a schoolC.was popular with his studentsD.enjoyed studying wars(3)Which of the following statements about Einstein is TRUE?A.He achieved more than other scientists in history.B.Our ideas about the universe differ from one another because of him.C.He kept working until peace came in 1918.A.Einstein's theory was soon accepted even by ordinary peopleB.more and more honours went to EinsteinC.Einstein almost had no chances for his researchD.Einstein was not honoured in Germany until the rise of NazismD.The delivery of the printer cost much time.(4)What does Ascione think of the new printed house?A.It is much cheaper than a brick house.B.It benefits a lot from the C3PO project.C.It is well received in construction industry.D.It is an inspiration for the construction industry.D.Suspect.(3)We can conclude from Paragraph 6 that pet cafes may ________.A.change our views of animalsB.teach us how to look after pets betterC.show us the importance of having petsD.remind us to value our family and friends(4)Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Cafes Enjoy Great PopularityB.Ideal Shelters for Lovely AnimalsC.Animals Turn into CompanionsD.Animal Lovers from Different Cities三、书面表达(本题共计 1 小题,共计5分)6.

Of course, this is not surprising. Without the nose, We could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character. Cyrano de Bergerac said that a large nose showed a great man—courageous, manly, and wise.A famous woman poet wished that she had two noses to smell a rose! Blaise Pascal made an interesting remark about Cleopatra’s nose. If it had been shorter, he said, it would have changed the whole face of the world!Man’s nose has had an important role in his imagination. Man has referred to the nose in many ways to express his emotions. Expressions dealing with the nose refer to human’s weakness, ange r, pride, jealousy and revenge(报复).In English there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example, to hold up one’s nose expresses a basic human feeling—pride. People can hold up their noses at people, things, and places.The phrase, to be led around by the nose, shows man’s weakness.A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand, a person who follows his nose lets his instinct (本能)guide him.There are a number of others. However, it should be as plain as the nose on your face that the nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling.46、The passage is about ____________.A、an organ, with which people can breathe and smellB、the nose, which gives different and useful expressionsC、the nose giving a person special characterD、the interesting remarks about the nose made by some people47、From the passage we know ___________.A、“Cleopatra’s nose”changed the whole face of the world indeedB、Cleopatra had a strong will to change the whole look of the worldC、Cleopatra’s nose was not shortD、Cleopatra hoped that people would change the whole face ofthe world48、The nose expresses ______.A、some human weakness or otherB、people’s shortcomingsC、people’s different emotionsD、human feelings in bad sense49、A person who follows his nose _______.A、won’t take others’ adviceB、is easily controlled by othersC、is weak—mindedD、will let his will guide him50、How many expressions about the nose are mentioned in the passageA、TwoB、ThreeC、FourD、FiveBPerhaps Professor Ray Birdwhistell suggested the most famous theory, the study of body movement. He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks —— we are not born with them. A baby has generally informed face features. A baby according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around —— family and friends. This helps explain why people of some areas of the United States look so much alike. New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that cannot be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can be well into grown-ups. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps whyin a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the United States,for example,the South is the part of the country where the people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less,and in the western part of New York States still less. Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly,partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta,Georgia. People inlargely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance ______.A has little to do with culture B. has much to do with cultureC is ever changingD is different from place to placeto the passage,the final mouth shape is formed ______.A. before birthB. as soon as one s teeth are newly setC. sometime after new teeth are setD. around 15 years oldBirdwhistell can tell what area of the United States a person is from by _____ .A.how much he or she laughsB. how he or she raises his or her eyebrows.C. what he or she likes bestD. the way he or she talkswho live ____ are more friendly.A. in largely populated areasB. in New York CityC. in the countryD. in the Northpassage might have been taken out of a book dealing with _____ .A. physicsB. chemistryC. biologyD. none of the aboveCOn the old-time farm in America there were chickens and turkeys(火鸡). There were alsocows, pigs, and other livestock (家畜). Butthere were very few machines. Most of the workwas done by the entire farm family with the help of a "hired man". Sometimes extra labourers (劳工) were needed in busy seasons. Horses provided 79 percent of the power used, human labour 15 percent, and machines only 6 percent. Today all that has changed. On many modern farms machines now finish 96 percent of the power, human labour 3 percent, and horses 1 percent. The children go to school by bus every morning, the parents work on the farm or in the house, and hired help is seldom needed. Theirwork has been replaced by a whole army of farm machines.56. Today machines finish the power _____ times more than yesterday.A. 17B. 16C. 15D. 1457. Today human labour finishes the power ___ percent as much asyesterday.A. 10B. 20C. 30D. 4058. Which power has changed most greatly _____A. HorsesB. Human labourC. MachinesD. Extra labours59. What has changed the farmer's work _____A. The support of the governmentB. The support of thepeopleC. The hired helpD. The farm machines60. How many things are compared in the passage _____A. TwoB. FourC. SixD. EightDThe making of glass is a very old industry———at least 4,500years old. Glass has many extraordinary qualities and it is frequently being used in new of the most interesting new uses for glass is in telephone communication. Scientists have developed glass fibres as thin as human hair which are designed to carry lightsignals. When the light reaches the other end,it is first changed into electrical signals,which are in turn converted(转变)into sound lightwave communication the new system was used successfully in an experiment in Chicago in 1977. During the experiment two glass fibres were able to carry 672 conversations at the same time. The lightwave cable, containing 144 glass fibres, has the capacity(容量)to carry 50,000 conversations at the same time. The lightwave communication system has two important advantages. First the glass fibre cables are smaller and weigh less than copper (铜)cables;second,they cost less. of the extraordinary qualities of glass is that it can carry ____.A.any signal signalssignals signalsyou can hear a message on the telephone using the new system , _______.light signals have to be changed into electrical soundthe light nor the electrical signals have to be changed in any way must first be changed into electrical signals and then into sound signals must first be changed into light signals and then intosoundto the passage , the new telephone communication system ______ .A.was put on experiment in 1977been put into actual use by 1977been repeatedly experimented before 1977first put into actual use in 1977the passage, you can tell that people prefer glass fibre cables to copper cables because ______ .A.glass fibre is easier to makefibre is less expensivefibre is more up to datefibre delivers messages directlyof the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passagesignals have changed the use of glass in industry.fibres have reduced the cost of telephone communication.is very useful because it has many unusual qualities.use of glass fibres to carry telephone messages is aninteresting new development.EAll around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea.In China, for example, tea is always served when people get together. The Chinese drink it at any time of the day at homes or in teahouses. They drink tea with nothing in it .Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special(特殊的) way of serving tea called a Tea ceremony(仪式). It is very old andfull of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.Another tea-drink country is England. In England, the late afternoon is “teatime”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot(茶壶) and drink it with creamand sugar. They also eat cakes, cookies and sandwiches at teatime.In the United States people drink tea mostly(主要地) for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots. In summer, many Americans drink cold tea- “iced tea.” Sometimes they drinkiced tea from cans(罐头), like soda(汽水).66.

一、阅读理解(共15 小题;每题 2 分,满分 30 分)ABefore traveling around the world, take some time and find out what sightseeing destinations are. Some of those spots that most guides mention are the following thrilling attractions.Victoria FallsVictoria Falls has always been considered to be an incredible place worth taking pictures of. There are a lot of spots that tourists love. Some of them are very dangerous for people. Yet the brave are ready to overcome their fear for a shot of lifetime.Arctic Cliff FaceA cliff does not make the most comfortable place for camping. Camping on the ground is far safer anyway. Despite all the inconvenience, the new trend is rapidly gaining popularity among climbing enthusiasts and outdoor addicts.Auckland ’ s Sky TowerAuckland ’ s Sky Tower is popular with bungee jumpers. Some celebrities, such as Beyonce, have already tried it, which proves that the place is not only safe but popular as well. The tower is 630 feet tall. At the top of the structure there is an observation deck. Trust us, most of those reading this article would prefer to stay on the ground rather than climb up this scary structure.North Yungas RoadThe Road of Death is the right name given to a road in Bolivia. Hundreds of people die here every year. The major cause of all those accidents is the road. The problem is that it is too narrow and badly maintained while here the traffic is heavier than anywhere else. Nevertheless, it seems like tourists will continue visiting this strange road despite its scary nickname.1.What is Victoria Falls famous for?A.Its narrow and badly maintained roadB.Its dangerous but attractive spots for taking picturesC.Its scary structureD.Its thrilling camping2. North Yungas Road is called“ the Road of Death” because. ________.A. the traffic is the heaviestB. it is built on the edge of the rockC. each year many people lose their lives thereD. there is no necessary protection equipment3. If you like bungee jumping, you can go to ________..A. Victoria FallsB. Arctic Cliff FaceC. Auckland’ s Sky TowerD. North Yungas Road4. What do the four places have in common?A. They are a bit life-threatening.B. They all have beautiful scenery.C. They are popular with climbers.D. They have been visited by celebrities.BHow do young children learn to have good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? At a time more and more parents worry about the violent images (暴力形象 ) their children see on TV and on the Internet. So many parents are turning to fairy tales. They want to teach their children how to behave in society by this way.It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe thetwo sides of good and evil ( 险恶 ) very clearly. When children hear the tales, they learn to careabout others ’ feelings. In each tale, they can see that there are many different kinds of peoplein the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We canchoose to do good actions, rather than bad ones, in our lives.What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea ( 《豌豆公主》 ), a poorly dressed girl says she is a princess. Few people believe her, so she is given a difficult test. When she passes the test, we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In the Little Mermaid ( 《小佳人鱼》 ), the mermaid, who lives under the sea, wishes to be with the humans on land. Through her experiences, we learn about the importance of living withand accepting other cultures.Teaching values is probably the main reason for encouraging children to read fairy tales.These tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that have been accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.5.Why do fairy tales have a great influence on children?A.Because fairy tales can teach them how to make a choice.B.Because fairy tales can help them get higher scores at school.C.Because they can learn how to avoid most difficulties in their lives.D.Because good and evil are shown in a way they can easily understand.6. The Little Mermaid may be helpful when children ________.A. are given a difficult testB. make friends with foreignersC. wish to be a princess or princeD. are going to lie to their parents7.The author writes the text mainly to ________.A.introduce some fairy talesB.talk about the history of fairy tales.C.discuss how to improve human relationshipsD.show how fairy tales help children shape valuesCMetro Pocket GuideMetrorail ( 地铁 )Each passenger needs a farecard to enter and go out.

Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick( 雏鸟 ) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor(固定) it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as muchinformation as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all— LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.12. What is unavoidable in the author’ s rescue work according to paragraph?1A. Getting injured in his work.B. Efforts made in vain.C. Creatures forced out of their homes.D. Feeling uncertain about his future.13. Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To look at a baby owl.B. To cure a young owl.C. To rescue a woman.D. To take care of a woman.14. What made the chick calm down ?A. Its parents.B. A recording.C.Some food.D. A new nest.15. How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’ s unexpected.B. It’ s humorous.C. It’ s beautiful.D. It’ s discouraging二、阅读七选五(共 5 小题;每题 2 分,满分 10 分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Grammar and vocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Your comfort zone is basically all of the situation in which you feel confident and “at home”; for example, doing the job you’ve done for a long time, (21)________(socialize)with a group of people you know well or living in a place you (22)________(live)all your life.Stepping out of your comfort zone, for example, starting a new job, going to a party where you don’t know anyone or moving to another part of the country, can be frightening, but (23)________ you do so, your confidence grows.Confident people also have comfort zones, but the difference between them and people (lack) (24)________confidence is (25)________they are willing to take risks and try new things (26)______ ______ ______ their fears.Confidence comes from taking action, not from inaction; each time you succeed in doing something (27)________ you fear, your comfort zone will expand. If you drive, think of your first driving lesson –probably you (28)________(terrify) at the thought of driving 100 meters –but as you gradually improved your skills, your confidence grew and now you could probably drive 100 miles (29)________ worrying.If you lack confidence, you may find yourself (30)________(stick) in a situation you are unhappy with – such as being in a relationship that is no longer working, spending hours travelling to work on the bus or train because you fear learning to drive, or doing a job you dislike or find fulfilling --- because you are too afraid to take the first step towards changing your life.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.It is a familiar scene these days: employees taking newly laid-off co-workers out for a drink for comfort. But which side deserves 31 more, the jobless or the still employed? On March 6, researchers at a conference at the University of Cambridge heard data suggesting it's the latter: compared with people who are straight-up laid off, those who keep their job but under a constant threat of losing it suffer a great 32 _ in mental well-being.Brendan Burchell, a Cambridge sociologist, presented his analysis based on various surveys conducted across Europe. The data suggest that employed people who feel insecure in their jobs show 33 levels of anxiety and depression as th ose who are unemployed. Although a newly jobless person’s mental health may “bottom out” after about six months, and then even begin to improve, the mental state of people who are 34 worried about losing their job “just continues to get worse and worse”, Burchell says.Evolutionary psychologists support this theory by arguing that human beings feel more stress during times of 35 because they sense an immediate but invisible threat. Patients have been known to experience higher levels of anxiety, for example, while waiting for examination results than knowing what they are suffering from—even if the result is cancer. It's better to get the bad news and start doing something about it rather than wait with anxiety. When the 36___ continues, people stay in a nonstop “fight or flight” response, which leads to 37 stress.But not every employee in insecure industries has such a 38 view, Burchell says. In general, women get on better. While reporting higher levels of anxiety than men when directly __39 , women scored lower in stress on the GHQ 12, even when they had a job they felt insecure about losing. As Burchell explains, “For women, most studies show that any job—it doesn't matter whether it is secure or insecure — gives psychological im provement over unemployment.” Burchell supposes that the difference in men is that they tend to feel pressure not only to be employed, but also to be the 40 breadwinner, and that more of a man’s self-worth depends on his job.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.As computer technology has improved, today’s online environment s have become more complex and realistic. One website that has 41 over six million Internet users is Second Life. Second Life is a three-dimensional (3-D) online world where people work, shop, sell and trade items, meet others, go to concerts and much more. Users, who are called “residents,” create their own characters, or “avatars,” They use their avatars to 42 Second Life’s virtual world.Just like any country, Second Life has its own 43 . Using a credit card, users can buy “Linden Dollars,” the official currency of Second Life. With Linden dollars, they can 44 land or even an entire island where they can build and decorate their own house. Land is treated as a valuable commodity (商品) in Second Life. Residents can choose to rent or sell their land to other users, and they can earn real money from these 45 _ .When residents want to be 46 , they can use their avatars to interact with others. There are games, shopping malls, clubs, and many kinds of stores 47 to residents. With so many opportunities for interesting things to do and see, it’s easy to see why so many users devote so much time to the site.Second Life offers users a quick and easy 48 from the real world. Many residents see this as one of the main 49 of using the site. Spending time on Second Life allows them to escape the stresses and problems of their daily lives. If a user is having a stressful day at work, she can visit a beautiful island, go skiing, or even fly to another planet during her lunch break.50 escaping the stress of their daily lives, users can also escape who they are in the real world and live out their fantasies. 51 , residents can change their occupations, physical appearance, and even their nationalities. A doctor from the United States can be a Brazilian musician on Second Life.52 , Second Life lets users live in a world without 53 .Although Second Life started as a way for people to escape the real world, it has become more and more 54 to the real world in many ways. Now on Second Life, some countries have virtual embassies, businesses have meetings in 55 rooms, and universities have places where students can view the campus and take classes. Today, Second Life allows users to experience both fantasy and reality in the same place.41. A. persuaded B. devoted C. attracted D. contacted42. A. explore B. create C. fight D. approach43.

A. man-made B. distinctive C. functional D. virtualSection BDirections:Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Behind most of the bad things we do to our bodies as adults, eating more than we should is the idea we carry with us from childhood. On one hand, we assume that we are indestructible. On the other hand, we think that any damage we impose on ourselves can be undone when we finally clean up our act.If the evidence for how wrong the first idea is isn’t apparent when you stand naked in front of the mirror, just wait. But what if you eat right and drop all your bad habits? Is there still time to repair the damage?To a surprising degree, the answer is yes. Over the past five years, scientists have collected a wealth of data about what happens when aging people with bad habits decide to turn their lives around.The heartening conclusion: the body has an amazing ability to heal itself, provided the damage is not too great.The effects of some bad habits —smoking, in particular—can haunt you for decades. But the damage from other habits can be largely healed.“Any time you improve your behavior and make lifestyle changes, they make a difference from that point on.” says Dr. Jeffrey Koplan. “Maybe not right away. It’s like slamming on the brakes. You do need a certain distance. ”But the distance can be remarkably short. Consider the recent announcements from the front lines of medical research:—A study concluded that women who consume as little as two servings of fish a week cut their risk ofsuffering a stroke to half that of women who eat less than one serving of fish a month.—The day you quit smoking, the carbon monoxide levels in your body drop dramatically. Within weeks, your blood becomes less sticky and your risk of dying from a heart attack starts to decline…Adopting healthy habits won’t cure all that bothers you, of course. But doctors believe that many chronic diseases—from high blood pressure to heart disease and even some cancers—can be warded off with a few sensible changes in lifestyle.Not sure where to start? Surprisingly, it doesn’t matter, since one positive change usually leads to another. Make enough changes, and you’ll discover you’ve adopted a new way of life.56. Most people with bad habits of eating more than they should believe that ______.A. they can never change the habits that have haunted them for decadesB. their bodies cannot be damaged by the bad habitsC. their bodies can heal all the damage without the help from outsideD. they can force themselves to clean up the had habits later57. The evidence against the assumption that we are indestructible_____.A. is seldom apparentB. is clearly shown in the mirrorC. will appear obvious sooner or laterD. is still a question58. According to the recent announcements______.A. women should eat as much fish as possibleB. women are at a higher risk of suffering a stroke than menC. men don’t have to eat as much fish as womenD. eating a little more fish can improve women’s health59. It is implied in the passage that______ .A. smokers have lower levels of carbon monoxide than non-smokersB. the blood of smokers is more sticky than that of non-smokersC. smokers will be unlikely to die from heart attack if they quit smokingD. chronic diseases can be cured if we drop our habit of smoking(B)Beijing is hardly alone in its air pollution problems. The world Health Organization has said that roughly half of the world’s urban population is exposed to pollution at least 2.5 times higher than it recommends.While it may take years to fix this global problem, innovative minds in the Asia region have come up with creative solutions for living with air pollution.DIY PurifierThomas Talhelm started worrying about the air inside his Beijing home during“airpocalypse”(空气末日) in 2013 when Beijing’s air quality index skyrocketed to aterrifying 755.The scholar couldn’t afford the luxury of an expensive air purifier. “Filters (过滤器) are actually very simple—a high efficient filter is all you need to get over 96%of the PM2.5,” he said.With three of his friends, Talhelm created Smart Air, an air purifier consisting ofa basic household fan with a high efficient filter attached to it.It works as efficiently as the big brands selling for thousands of dollars, removing more than 90 percent of PM2.5 in your room, according to Talhelm’s research.Invisible MaskInfipure’s “nose mask”claims to cut 99% of PM2.5 without the trouble of a surgicalface mask.The filters, made from special materials, are inserted into your nose and aim to be undetectable.“People care about their health, but don’t want all the downsides that come with a traditional face mask,” Infipure co-founder Francis Law explained.Plant BackpackTaiwanese artist Chui Chih has designed a survival device for an apocalyptic world.Named Voyage on the Planet, a potted plant is housed inside a clear backpack hooked upto two tubes to bring fresh air to a face mask. It’s a bold, abstract idea from an oxygen tank.Smog VacuumDaan Roosegaarde has been working on a smog vacuum that will suck pollutants from thesky to the ground like a vacuum, making way for clean air.A byproduct of this smog vacuum, namely The Smog Free Tower, is the “smog ring”—a piece of jewelry made from smog particulates(微粒).“The pollution we suck up, the small particulates, we don’t throw them away. We put them under pressure for a couple of weeks and they crystallize(结晶), creating somethinglike a diamond,” Roosegaarde explains.60. Thomas Talhelm invented Smart Air for all the following reasons except _______.A. the high price of the big brandsB. the poor quality of the indoor airC. the help from three of his friendsD. the simple principle behind the device61. If someone wants to travel around in those polluted days, which product will he mostprobably choose for the sake of convenience?A. Smart Air.B. The Smog Free Tower.C. Voyage on the Planet.D. Infipure’s nose mask.62. In which solution the inventor also makes use of the dust collected from the polluted air?A. Invisible Mask.B. Smog Vacuum.C. Plant Backpack.D. DIY Purifier.(C)A scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing…right? Perhaps, but some developmental psychologists have argued that this“play”is more like a scientific investigation than one might think.Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls to the ground—and, in the process, it brings out important evidence about how physical objects interact; bowls of rice do not float in mid-air, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing this basic fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and the scientist’s experiment appear to share the same aim(to learn about the natural world), overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way—that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, for ex ample, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesn’t like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws light on how children learn, but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort—the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world—is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive (认知的) systems that make young children feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, “It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children.”63. According to some developmental psychologists, _________.A. a baby’s play is nothing more than a game.B. scientific r esearch into babies’ games is possibleC. the nature of babies’ play has been thoroughly investigatedD. a baby’s play is somehow similar to a scientist’s experiment64. We learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A. scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB. scientists and babies often interact with each otherC. babies are born with the knowledge of object supportD. babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do65. Children may learn the rules of language by________.A. exploring the physical worldB. investigating human psychologyC. repeating their own experimentsD. observing their parents’ behaviors66. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The world may be more clearly explained through chi ldren’s play.B. Studying babies’ play may lead to a better understanding of science.C. Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists.D. One’s drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentences to fill in the blanks and complete the passage. There are two extra sentences you do not need.Who Writes the President's Speeches?The president of the United States must be an orator. The president gives an annual address on the State of the Union and speaks at the inauguration and other special events. ____67____ In his Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln spoke fewer than 300 words, but those words have become immortal. Franklind. Roosevelt set the standard for later presidents in his 30 “fireside chats”, which aired on the radio and dealt with the Great Depression and World War II.Beginning with George Washington, American presidents often sought assistance with the content and wording of their speeches, although they may have done the writing themselves.____68____ The first President to assign the task of speechwriting to an aide, however, was Calvin Coolidge(1923-1929), the laconic president whose nickname was "Silent Cal”. The aides name was Judson Welliver. (Today, there is a bipartisan organization for former presidential speechwriters, the Judson Welliver Society.) Since the middle of the twentieth century, the role of such speechwriters has expanded; the Executive branch now includes an Office of Speechwriting as part of its Department of Communications, Speechwriting and Media Affairs.____69____ In his inaugural speech, John F. Kennedy urged Americans “Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country”. George H. W. Bush, in his inaugural speech, imagined community volunteers and organizations as “a thousand points of light”. Both of these phrases originated with the gifted men and women who worked as the president's speechwriters.The process of drafting a presidential speech is long and complicated, and different presidents make different contributions. Some write large portions of the text and invite criticism from aides and advisers; others ask speechwriters to draft a speech in its entirety, and then they edit it to their own satisfaction. ____70____ The final product, whatever the process, must “sound” like the person who speaks the words.As one speech writer recently said, “Our concern was not to write a good speech, but to write a good speech that is also his speech”.IV. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.These days our society develops rapidly and forces people to rush. It appears that people have got used to being in a hurry. However, it’s better for people to take the ir time and live their life at a slower pace than to hurry to get things done.The main reason that convinces us to oppose doing work in a hurry is the possibility of doing wrongs in a rush. When people do their jobs or take action in a hurry, they can’t make a sound decision and probably regret later. As the saying goes, “Haste makes waste.” We should think carefully before making a decision and do our work less quickly. We should not make mistakes by doing work hurriedly.Slowing down the pace of life helps people enjoy their life better. For example, taking a train to some place certainly will take more time than taking a plane. However, taking a train makes people have enough time to get to know a lot of new friends. Besides, it allows people to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. On the contrary, being in a hurry will make us lose chances of enjoying our lives. Finally, slower life pace provides better health conditions for us. As is known to all, taking action in a hurry bothers people and raises their stress. People think if they are not in a hurry, they will become a loser and that annoys them. But being in a hurry can hurt people both physically and mentally. According to some studies, people who have a slower pace suffer fewer diseases, tend to be happier and live much longer than those whose life is tense, even if the former finish jobs more slowly than the latter.In short, working quickly will bring about more material benefits to make our society more advanced. Yet, much s tress can’t bring enjoyment, friends and health, which are much more important than money and other material advantages. Therefore, take your time and live your life at a slower pace.第 II 卷(共40分)I.
