AThe Portuguese manowar(僧帽水母), commonly called the bluebottle in Australia, is another stinging jellyfish (水母)．It iswidely seen throughout the warmer seas of the world，especiallyin the Australian summer months in shallow, coastal waters.Besides, it is not uncommon to find thousands of Portuguese manowar floating in groups off the popular surfing beaches in Queensland，Australia.Actually，the blue bottle is not a single sea animal，but consists a large colony of smaller marine organisms(有机体)．It is a large, gasfilled, bladderlike(胆状物)blue float, which can be up to 30 centimeters in length and rise above the water as much as 15 centimeters. The float has a crest which is used much as a sail to push the colony across the water when the wind blows.Groups of polyps are attached to the underside of the blue bladder，and very long tentacles(触手) extend from each of the polyps. Each of the tentacles has stinging cells that are capable of killing fish up to 10 centimeters long. The poison from the stinging cells causes breathing problems and muscle weakness, and it is through these actions that the blue bottle catches and kills its victims.Although the sting from the blue bottle is not as deadly to humans as the box jellyfish, a person who comes into contact with a blue bottle will still suffer a lot. The sting can cause serious side effects including fever, shock and breathing problems. The severe pain from the sting may last about two hours, and depending upon treatment, the pain will usually disappear in seven hours. The usual, quick but effective first aid treatment for the sting from a blue bottle is to pour vinegar over the area of the sting and over the tentacles, before removing the tentacles from the skin.21．How does the Portuguese manowar get its name blue bottle？____A．From the blue ocean it lives in.B．From the sea plants it feeds on.C．From the colour and shape of its body.D．From the polyps that are attached to it.22．Compared with box jellyfish, the blue bottle ____.A．doesn't like attacking human beingsB．prefers to live in a colder environmentC．can't be found off the beaches in QueenslandD．is not as harmful to humans as box jellyfish23．If a man is stung by the blue bottle，he ____.A．will suffer from a sharp severe painB．may stop breathing in seven hoursC．can only go to the hospital to get treatedD．should drink some vinegar to reduce painCDABPacific Science Center Guide◆Vi sit Pacific Science Center's StoreDon't forget to stop by Pacific Science Center's Store while you are here to pick up a wonderful science activity or souvenir to remember your visit.

But arethey smart like humans or more than cats or dogs? Dolphins usetheir brains differently from people. But scientists say dolphin intelligence and human intelligence are similar in some ways. How?Fact 1：Talk to meLike humans, every dolphin has its own “name”．The name is a special whistle. Each dolphin chooses a specific whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Actually, scientists think dolphins, like people, “talk” to each other about a lot of things, such as their ages，their feelings, or finding food. And, like humans，dolphins use a system of sounds and body languages to communicate. But understanding their conversations is not easy for humans. No one speaks dolphin's language yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.Fact 2：Let's playDolphins are also social animals. They live in groups, and they often join others from different groups to play games and have fun—just like people. In fact，playing together is something only intelligent animals do.Fact 3: Fishermen's helperDolphins and humans are similar in another way：both make plans to get something they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an interesting strategy to get food. When fish are near a boat, dolphins show signs to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. What is the advantage for the dolphins in doing so？They get to eat some of the fish.27．What does a dolphin often use as its “name”？____A．A body language. B．A special whistle.C．Its feeling. D．Its age.28．Why do dolphins join others from different groups？____A．To learn to “talk”．B．To meet their families.C．To play games. D．To find food.29．How do dolphins help fishermen catch fish？____A．By playing with other fish. B．By following fishing boats.C．By leading the fish into the net. D．By showing signs to the fishermen.30．What is the passage mainly about？____A．Dolphins are smarter than humans.B．Dolphins make friends with humans.C．Dolphins teach humans to speak their language.D．Dolphins and humans are similar in some ways.BCDD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。

The car will have a stopgo butt on but no controls, steering wheel or pedals.Pictures of the Google vehicle show it looks like a city car with a “friendly” face, designed to make it seem nonthreatening and help people accept selfdriving technology.Cofounder Sergey Brin revealed the p lans at a conference in California.“We're really excited about this vehicle—it's something that will allow us to really push the capabilities of selfdriving technology, and understand the limitations，” said Chris Urmson, director of the company's selfdr iving project.He added that the cars had the ability to “improve people's lives by transforming mobility”．But some researchers working in this field are investigating potential downsides to driverless car technology.They believe they could make traffic and urban extension worse，as people accept longer commutes(往返路程)as they do not have to drive themselves.It looks almost cartoonlike，it has no traditional bonnet at the front，and the wheels are pushed to the corners.It will seat two people，driving force will be electric，and at the start it will be limited to 25mph (40km/h) to help ensure safety.The most significant thing about the design is that it does not，have any controls, apart from a stop/go button. For early testing, extra controls will be fitted so one of Google's test drivers can take over if there is a problem.The controls will be simply plugged in, and Mr.Urmson believes that over time, as confidence in the technology grows，they will be removed entirely. The front end of the vehicle is designed to be safer for pedestrians, with a soft foamlike material where a traditional bumper would be, and a more flexible windscreen，which may help reduce injuries.The vehicle will use a combination of laser and radar sensors along with camera data to drive autonomously.It will depend on Google's road maps, built specifically for the programme, and tested on the company's current fleet of vehicles.1．What do we know about the Google selfdriving cars？________A．There is no difference in appearance between them and an ordinary car.B．They are taken as a symbol of the success of selfdriving technology.C．The front of the car leaves people the impression that it is quite safe.D．The wheels are installed in a way people can hardly notice them.2．How does the car drive automatically？________A．With a computer installed inside.B．With a Google Map designed specially for it.C．With the instruction sent from the central tower.D．With the information it collects through several means.3．What's the best title for the passage？________A．Selfdriving cars are more convenient.B．Selfdriving cars need to be improved.C．Selfdriving cars are on the way.D．Selfdriving cars are safer.Key: CDC。

That’s a large fraction of Earth’s animals, but this new study held some good news too. Conservation efforts by humans have slowed the loss of many species of amphibians(两栖动物), birds, and mammals. Losses in these groups would have been about 20 percent greater had it not been for recent actions of protection。

Among the animal.conservation success stories is one about birds called Mauritius kestrels. In the 1970s， just four of these birds of prey were left in the world. Through a special breeding program， scientists were able to increase their number to about 1,000 and release them into the wild。

AI had a very special teacher in high school many years ago whosehusband unexpectedly died of a heart attack. About a week after hisdeath，she shared some of her views with a classroom of students.As the sunlight came in through the classroom windows and theclass was nearly over，she moved a few things aside on the edge of her desk and sat down there. She paused and said，“Before class is ov er，I would like to share with all of you a thought that is unrelated to class，but which I feel is important. Each of us comes to this world to learn，share，love，appreciate and give. None of us knows when this fantastic experience will end. It can be taken a way at any moment.”Her eyes beginning to water，she went on：“So I would like you all to make me a promise.From now on，on your way to school，or on your way home，find something beautiful to notice. It doesn't have to be something you see. It could be a scent of freshly baked bread from someone's house，or it could be the sound of the wind slightly rustling the leaves in the trees.”The class was completely quiet. We all picked up our books and left the room silently. That afternoon，I noticed more things on my way home from school.Take notice of something special you see on your way home today. Go barefoot on the beach at sunset. For as we get older，it is not the things we did that we often regret，but the things we didn't do.21．What is the purpose of the author's writing the passage？____A．To show his respect to his teacher.B．To ask us to appreciate every moment of our life.C．To ask us never to give in when facing difficulty.D．To show the influence that a teacher has on her students.22．What does the under lined word “scent” mean？____A．Smell. B．Piece.C．Color. D．Taste.23．What do we learn from the last sentence？____A．We will be happy when we are old.B．We will regret the mistakes that we made when we were young.C．We will regret what we didn't do though we might do it.D．We will do what we couldn't do in the past.BACBWhen 19yearold Sophia Giorgi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the MakeAWish Foundation (基金会)，nobody understood what she was talking about. But Sophia knew just how impo rtant MakeAWish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends. We were interested in finding out more，so we went along to meet Sophia and listen to what she had to say.Sophia told us that Mak eAWish is a worldwide organization that started in the United States in 1980.“It's a charity(慈善机构)that helps children who have got very serious illnesses. MakeAWish helps children feel happy even though they are sick，by making their wishes and dreams come true，” Sophia explained.We asked Sophia how MakeAWish had first started. She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris，who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman. Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris's dream come true—so，with everybody's help，Chris，only seven years old at the time，had been a“ policeman” for a day.“ When people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true，they decided to try and help other sick children too，an d that was the beginning of MakeAWish，”explained Sophia.Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special，happy time. A MakeAWish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if they could have anything in the world. Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true. They do this either by providing things that are necessary，or by raising money or helping out in whatever way they can.24．Sophia found out about MakeAWish because her best friend had ____.A．benefited from it B．volunteered to help itC．dreamed about it D．told the author about it25．According to Sophia，MakeAWish ____.A．is an international charityB．was understood by nobody at firstC．raises money for very poor familiesD．started by drawing the interest of the public26．What is said about Chris in Paragraph 3？____A．He has been a policeman since he was seven.B．He gave people the idea of starting MakeAWish.C．He wanted people to help make his dream come true.D．He was the first child MakeAWish helped after it had been set up.AABCA year ago August，Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife，Gerrie，was still working in the local school cafeteria，but work for Dave was scarce，and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift—$ 7,000，a legacy (遗产)from their neighbours Ish and Arlene Hatch，who died in an accident.“It really made a difference when we were going under financially.” says Dave.But the Fusses weren't the only folks in Alto and the neighbouring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches' generosity. In some cases，it was a few thousand dollars；in others，it was more than $ 100,000.It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money，more than $ 3 million—they were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.Children of the Great Depression，Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They thrived on (喜欢)comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store，checking prices before making a new purchase.Through the years，the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn't afford it.“Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything，”says their friend Sandy Van Weelden，“They could see things they could do to make you happier，and they would do them.”Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches had their farmland distributed. It was the Hatches' wish that their legacy—a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cents—should enrich the whole community(社区) and lastf for generations to come.Neighbours helping neighbours—that was Ish and Arlene Hatch's story.27．Which of the following is true of the Hatches？____A．They had their children during the Great Depression.B．They left the family farm to live in an old house.C．They gave away their possessions to their neighbours.D．They helped their neighbours to find jobs.28．Why would the Hatches routinely go from store to store？____A．They decided to open a store.B．They wanted so save money.C．They couldn't afford expensive things.D．They wanted to buy gifts for local kids.29．According to Sandy Van Weelden，the Hatches were ____.A．understanding B．optimisticC．childlike D．curious30．What can we learn from the text？____A．The community of Alto was poor.B．The summer camp was attractive to the parents.C．Sandy Van Weelden got a legacy from the Hatches.D．The Hatches would like the neighbours to follow their example.CBAD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。

AIn the fall of 1985. I was a brighteyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twentyone years later I am still a brighteyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic，and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8! Our home was a complete zoo —a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college fulltime. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester. The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!I am not special, just singleminded. It alw ays struck me that when you're looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you're in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won't arrive in your life on one day. It's a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.21. When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be________.A．a writer B．a teacherC．a judge D．a doctor22. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college?A．She wanted to study by herself.B．She fell in love and got married.C．She suffered from a serious illness.D．She decided to look after her grandma.23．What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?A．She was busy yet happy with her family life.B．She ignored her guilty feeling for her sons.C．She wanted to remain a fulltime housewife.D．She was too confused to make a correct choice.CDAB“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move，”said David Belle，the cofounder of parkour (跑酷)．Do you love running？It is a good exercise，yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one？Like jumping from walls and over gaps and ground rolls？Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale？Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.Yes，that's parkour，an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible，getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city，they may jump over fences，run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds，but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(哲理)behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination，go straight，and jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life，to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said，“I l ove parkour because its philosophy has become my life，my way to do everything.”Another philosophy we've learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done byanyone，at any time，anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.24．Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of ________.A．its cofounder，David Belle B．the film，Casino RoyaleC．its risks and tricks D．the varieties of participants 25．The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to“________”．A．streets B．objectsC．barriers D．roofs26．Which of the following is true of parkour?A．It challenges human abilities.B．It is a good but boring sport.C．It needs special training.D．It is a team sport.BCACAn idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起) the “If All of Seattle Read the Same Book” project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong. In Chicago, the mayor(市长) appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the “One Book, One Chicago” program. As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in mediumsized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity (一致)can be achieved. Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.Ultimately as Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word. 27. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A．To invite authors to guide readers.B．To encourage people to read and share.C．To involve people in community service.D．To promote the friendship between cities.28．Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?A．They had little interest in reading.B．They were too busy to read a book.C．They came from many different backgrounds.D．They lacked support from the local government.29. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?A．In large communities with little sense of unity.B．In large cities where libraries are far from home.C．In mediumsized cities with a diverse population.D．In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.30．The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean________.A．exchanged ideas with each otherB．discussed the meaning of a wordC．gamed life experienceD．used the same languageBCDA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。

AThe Portuguese manowar(僧帽水母), commonly called the bluebottle in Australia, is another stinging jellyfish (水母)．It iswidely seen throughout the warmer seas of the world，especiallyin the Australian summer months in shallow, coastal waters.Besides, it is not uncommon to find thousands of Portuguese manowar floating in groups off the popular surfing beaches in Queensland，Australia.Actually，the blue bottle is not a single sea animal，but consists a large colony of smaller marine organisms(有机体)．It is a large, gasfilled, bladderlike(胆状物)blue float, which can be up to 30 centimeters in length and rise above the water as much as 15 centimeters. The float has a crest which is used much as a sail to push the colony across the water when the wind blows.Groups of polyps are attached to the underside of the blue bladder，and very long tentacles(触手) extend from each of the polyps. Each of the tentacles has stinging cells that are capable of killing fish up to 10 centimeters long. The poison from the stinging cells causes breathing problems and muscle weakness, and it is through these actions that the blue bottle catches and kills its victims.Although the sting from the blue bottle is not as deadly to humans as the box jellyfish, a person who comes into contact with a blue bottle will still suffer a lot. The sting can cause serious side effects including fever, shock and breathing problems. The severe pain from the sting may last about two hours, and depending upon treatment, the pain will usually disappear in seven hours. The usual, quick but effective first aid treatment for the sting from a blue bottle is to pour vinegar over the area of the sting and over the tentacles, before removing the tentacles from the skin.21．How does the Portuguese manowar get its name blue bottle？____A．From the blue ocean it lives in.B．From the sea plants it feeds on.C．From the colour and shape of its body.D．From the polyps that are attached to it.22．Compared with box jellyfish, the blue bottle ____.A．doesn't like attacking human beingsB．prefers to live in a colder environmentC．can't be found off the beaches in QueenslandD．is not as harmful to humans as box jellyfish23．If a man is stung by the blue bottle，he ____.A．will suffer from a sharp severe painB．may stop breathing in seven hoursC．can only go to the hospital to get treatedD．should drink some vinegar to reduce painCDABPacific Science Center Guide◆Visit Pacific Science Center's StoreDon't forget to stop by Pacific Science Center's Store while you are here to pick up a wonderful science activity or souvenir to remember your visit.

But arethey smart like humans or more than cats or dogs? Dolphins usetheir brains differently from people. But scientists say dolphin intelligence and human intelligence are similar in some ways. How?Fact 1：Talk to meLike humans, every dolphin has its own “name〞．The name is a special whistle. Each dolphin chooses a specific whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Actually, scientists think dolphins, like people, “talk〞 to each other about a lot of things, such as their ages，their feelings, or finding food. And, like humans，dolphins use a system of sounds and body languages to communicate. But understanding their conversations is not easy for humans. No one speaks dolphin's language yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.Fact 2：Let's playDolphins are also social animals. They live in groups, and they often join others from different groups to play games and have fun—just like people. In fact，playing together is something only intelligent animals do.Fact 3: Fishermen's helperDolphins and humans are similar in another way：both make plans to get something they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an interesting strategy to get food. When fish are near a boat, dolphins show signs to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. What is the advantage for the dolphins in doing so？They get to eat some of the fish.27．What does a dolphin often use as its “name〞？____A．A body language. B．A special whistle.C．Its feeling. D．Its age.28．Why do dolphins join others from different groups？____A．To learn to “talk〞．B．To meet their families.C．To play games. D．To find food.29．How do dolphins help fishermen catch fish？____A．By playing with other fish. B．By following fishing boats.C．By leading the fish into the net. D．By showing signs to the fishermen.30．What is the passage mainly about？____A．Dolphins are smarter than humans.B．Dolphins make friends with humans.C．Dolphins teach humans to speak their language.D．Dolphins and humans are similar in some ways.BCDD第二节(共5小题；每题2分，总分值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正确选项。

AMany of us have heard of the saying：everything is possible if you can just believe. But few of us really know the power of faith and perseverance. South African swimmer Natalie du Toit embodies those virtues.Du Toit，became the first swimmer to compete in both the Olympic Games and the Paralympics(残奥会)in Beijing. Although she finished 16th in the tough 10 km marathon in the ablebodied Games，she has collected three golds in the Paralympics so far.One of the most successful disabled athletes of all time，Natalie du Toit was already a promising swimmer when she lost her leg in a motorcycle accident in 2001，at just 17.“There are a lot of dark mo ments，”du Toit said.“There are some days when I cry. But I try to remember that better days are ahead. You just go on.”Within a few months，she was back in the swimming pool.She still competes and still succeeds. The only difference is that she has switched to longer events—from 200 m and 400 m individual medley to 800 m and 1,500 m freestyle—to make up for her loss of speed with only one leg. But she made no adjustment to her mental outlook(精神面貌)．“Going out in the water，it feels as if there's nothing wrong with me. It doesn't matter if you look different. You're still the same as everybody else because you have the same dream.”She is the owner of many world records，and she also won gold when competing against ablebodied swimmers in the 1,500 m freestyl e at the All Africa Games in 2007.But there is no magic recipe for success. It all comes down to hard work and determination.“She is stubborn，which is good and bad，”said her coach Karoly Von Toros.“Good for the swimming，but bad for the coach.”There is a poem that hangs on her wall that reads:The tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goals；The tragedy of life lies in not having goals to reach for.21．Natalie du Toit is a vivid example that ____.A．you are what you believeB．your biggest enemy is yourselfC．results are not so important as the processD．you must set reasonable goals or you will fail22．The underlined word in the first paragraph means ____.A．makes B．createsC．represents D．introduces23．According to the text，Natalie du Toit became ____.A．the first athlete to compete with ablebodied swimmers in the worldB．the youngest disabled swimmer to break the world record in the 1,500 m freestyleC．the youngest disabled swimmer to collect three golds in a single Paralympics D．the first swimmer to compete in both the Olympic Games and the Paralympics ACDBGetting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation,51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights，even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7 to 12yearolds said they felt tired during the day，and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most schoolage children，ten hours is ideal(理想的)．But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10 to 12yearolds get only seven or e ight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on，and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake，with more homework，the Internet and the phone，” says Dr.Mary Carskadon，a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levelsof body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers' bodies develop adult characteristics，but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers，some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago，schools in Edina，Minnesota，changed the start time from 7：25 am to 8：30 am. Students，parents and teachers are pleased with the results.24．What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on？____A．American kids' sleeping habits.B．Teenagers' sleeprelated diseases.C．Activities to prevent sleeplessness.D．Learning problems and lack of sleep.25．How many hours of sleep do 11yearolds need every day？____A．7 hours. B．8 hours.C．10 hours. D．18 hours.26．Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon？____A．They are affected by certain body chemicals.B．They tend to do things that excite them.C．They follow their parents' examples.D．They don't need to go to school early.ACBCI had made up my mind a long time ago that I would not give a homeless person money，because I could never be sure what that money would be used for. Instead，I decided，I would buy them a sandwich，a cold drink on a hot day，a cup of coffee，whatever I could manage.I was out recently and saw a homeless man outside of a Starbucks. So I dropped another few coins in and went into the Starbucks. I decided I would buy this man lunch. I bought a sandwich and soda.Just as I was leaving the store，two policemen were approaching the man. Obviously the shop owners had complained of his wandering and the police were there to draw him away from the storefronts. Just as they were about to wake him，I asked one of the officers if it was all right if I just gave the man something before he went.I was not sure why I asked the permission but the policeman said sure and I justleft the bag in the man's cart，got in my car and drove off.As I was driving off I remember thinking.“I hope people saw that” .Then I had to seriously ask myself why I hoped people had seen me give the man a sandwich from Starbucks. Was it because I wanted people to think，“ She's such a nice person！”？Why did I hope others had seen me do it? I continued to wonder this all evening.The next morning it came to me. I wanted people to have witnessed that small act of kindness so that I would receive credit and praise but so that they might be inspired to do the same and in so doing that others still would witness their acts of kindness. Thus the whole spirit of pity and giving would be lasting.27．The underlined word “Starbucks” in the second paragraph is the name of a ____.A．shop B．bookstoreC．bank D．man28．When the author saw the homeless man，he was ____.A．begging outside B．buying goodsC．staying awake D．falling asleep29．What's the purpose of the passage？____A．To show the author is great.B．To encourage people to help others.C．To introduce an experience that changed the author.D．To call on people not to give money to a homeless man.30．The author can be best described as ____.A．badtempered B．hardworkingC．kindhearted D．selfconfidentADBC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。

AThe survival of about one fifth of the world's vertebrates—animals with a backbone，is considered threatened, according to new research published in the journal Science. That's a large fraction of Earth's animals, but this new study held some good news too. Conservation efforts by humans have slowed the loss of many species of amphibians(两栖动物), birds, and mammals. Losses in these groups would have been about 20 percent greater had it not been for recent actions of protection.Among the animalconservation success stories is one about birds called Mauritius kestrels. In the 1970s, just four of these birds of prey were left in the world. Through a special breeding program, scientists were able to increase their number to about 1,000 and release them into the wild.Humpback whales(座头鲸) have benefited greatly from recent conservation efforts as well. They were once on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN)list of species threatened with extinction. But the species is now in less danger, thanks to laws that ban whale hunting. The IUCN even moved the humpback into “species of least concern.”Over the past 100 years, the white rhino(犀牛) of South Africa has also made an amazing recovery because of habitat protection. The breed multiplied from just 50 animals to about 17,000. Their home has been turned into a protected area, safe from poachers and other threats.Stuart Butchart, one of the authors of the new study in Science, is encouraged by the positive effects of conservation. But he says “Biodiversity (生物多样性)of species is in a desperate state. Its situation is getting worse. But our results show we can turn the situation around.”New conservation policies hopefully are on the way. One hundred ninetythree countries recently met in Japan at the Convention on Biological Diversity to set concrete goals for preserving threatened wildlife and their habitats. Only 1 percent of oceans and 12 percent of land areas were protected under prior agreements. Two new goals set by the group are to designate(指定) 10 percent of the world's oceansand 17 percent of land environments as protected areas to help increase endangeredanimal populations.21．What can we learn from the passage?A．Though there was a special breeding program, the number of Mauritius kestrels didn't increase.B．Conservation efforts should not only be made by human beings.C．Humpback whales are not on the International Union for Conservation of Nature' s list now.D．Because many groups are working to protect wildlife, natural habitats are ingood condition.22．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in people' s conservation efforts?A．Habitat protection.B．Breeding programs.C．Laws of banning whale hunting.D．Creation of studying organizations.23. The author uses some successful animalconservation examples to showthat________.A．conservation worksB．man conquers natureC．animals are more importantD．law is fairCDABIt was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night. The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently.My father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him. I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. I' m so glad I did.On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps (脊背) in the distance.On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldn't believe it —there aren't any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whale — actually as big as our boat—was obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools (漩涡) and waves. “She' s trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side, ” my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breathe — and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day. Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.24．The author says “I'm so glad I did.” ( in Para. 2) b ecause ________.A．he witnessed the whole process of fishingB．he enjoyed the beauty of the calm seaC．he experienced the rescue of the whalesD．he spent the weekend with his family25．The harbour survived the storm owing to ________.A．the shape of the harbourB．the arms of the bayC．the still water in the channelD．the long coast line26．The mother whale failed to help her baby because ________.A．she had stayed in the polluted water for too longB．the whirlpools she had made were not big enoughC．she had no other whales around to turn to for helpD．the waves pushed her baby in the wrong directionCBDCThousands of eggs of the endangered Olive Ridley turtles(海龟) on the beach have failed to hatch this year because of the recent oil spill .An oil coat had spread over a seven km area near the nesting site off the Rushikulya beach after around eight tons of furnace oil leaked from an Essarowned vessel near Gopalpur port, 20 km from here, on April 12.Being pushed by high tide, the spilled oil spread to the coast. Villagers claimed that they had seen carcasses of adult turtles along the coast after the sea water had been contaminated. Around 155,000 of the rare Olive Ridleys had nested along the coastline in March while the mass hatching of eggs, which continued for a week, ended last week.“The authorities cleaned only 2－3 km stretch of the beach.”Many eggs were damaged due to the effect of oil deposits.“Moreover, many baby turtles failed to move out of the nest as the soi l also got harder”， Sahu, who along with villagers of Purunabandha has been working in the turtle conservation programme since the last 16 years, said.Turtle expert Kartik Shanker also raised similar concerns.“The oil spill will have an effect on the mortality rate of the hatchlings. But scientifically, it is not possible to arrive at a mortality figure for it，”Shanker, a professor at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, said.Marine scientist Bijay Kumar Sahu said there was an immediate need for a detailed multidiscipline faculty study on the longterm impact of the oil spill on the marine environment.
