Though not much can be done about the first two things, there may soon be a solution to the third one, thanks to this cool 3-D pizza printer! About a year ago, NASA offered $125,000 to Anjan Contractor, a 3-D technology expert, to build a device that would allow astronauts to make pizza on demand. The mechanical engineer promised that his invention would produce pies in large quantities that looked, tasted and even smelled like pizza made in common ovens. Late last year, the engineer presented a video of his first prototype（原型）that begins by creating a single slice of dough（⾯团）that is cooked and printed at the same time. Then comes the tomato “sauce”—a mix of tomato powder, oil and water and finally, a protein slice that looks like cheese. While the video doesn’t show the baking process, the inventor says that once the pizza is printed, it can be ready to be consumed in 7 seconds. While the pie in the video looks delicious enough to attract any pizza lover, Anjan Contractor is far from ready for astronauts. That’s because he still has to find a solution to make the food container in the printer last for 30 years. Though that may sound unrealistic, actually it is not. Anjan Contractor believes that the only way that is possible is that the water is removed from all the ingredients and then they are reduced to the powder form. This, as you can imagine, will not be so easy. But, while the printer may not be ready for space, it certainly looks ready enough for people on earth. Hopefully, NASA and Contractor will consider selling it to those not fortunate enough to go to Mars! 24. Why does the author mention the things that astronauts in space cannot do? ATo ask us not to take common things for granted. BTo show they live a difficult life there. CTo show their life is boring in space. DTo introduce the topic of the text. 25. NASA offered $125,000 to Anjan Contractor mainly to ________. Acreate some new type of 3-D printer Battract more companies to work for NASA Chelp astronauts in space enjoy fresh pizza one day Dproduce pizza in large quantities to earn great profits 26. The biggest challenge that Anjan Contractor is faced with now is probably that ________. Ahe has no money left to go on with his research Bthe pizza doesn't seem appetizing to pizza lovers Che has no way to make pizza that can last for thirty years Dhe cannot make the food container last for decades 27. What's the best title of the passage? ANASA is trying its best to help astronauts eat better BAstronauts may soon be able to enjoy steaming hot pizza CNASA is working on making pizza for common people DA 3-D pizza printer has been used to make pizza 分值: 8分查看题⽬解析 > 3 C For thousands of years, people thought of glass as something beautiful to look at. Only recently have they come to think of it as something to look through. Stores display their goods in large glass windows. Glass bottles and jars that hold food and drink allow us to see the contents. Glass is used to make eyeglasses, microscopes, telescopes, and many other extremely useful and necessary objects. Until the Second World War, most of the glass used for optical（光学的）instruments was imported from Europe. However, during the war Americans could not get European glass, and they were forced to make their own. Therefore, new kinds of glasses were developed that had been previously unknown. These new effects were achieved by mixing other chemical elements with the sand. Some of these new glasses are very strong and can resist many kinds of shocks. Legend has it that a very hard glass was invented by a Roman who showed his discovery to the Emperor. When the Emperor saw the glass he feared that it would become more valuable than gold and sliver, making his treasure worthless. Therefore, he had the glassmaker killed, and the secret was not discovered again for hundreds of years. In the present century, safety glass was invented for use in modern cars and planes. Safety glass is made by placing a layer of plastic between two layers of plate glass. When the outside layer of glass is broken, the pieces do not scatter（散开）and injure people. Some glass of the type is strong enough to resist bullets（⼦弹）. Although nowadays plastics have replaced glass under conditions where glass might be easily broken, there are new uses being developed, for the greatest advantage of glass is that its component（组成的）parts are inexpensive and can be found all over the world. 28. As time goes by, glass ________. Ais regarded as transparent Bis used to make things look pleasant Cis seen as more than decoration Dis widely used to replace steel in making containers 29. Why did Americans make their own glass during the Second World War? AThe war blocked the way of glass import. BThe glass made in Europe was out of date. CThey refused to use the European glass. DThey were able to make a new kind of glass. 30. Why does the author tell us the legend? ATo prove the Roman was the first inventor of hard glass. BTo support the Americans were as clever as the Romans. CTo givesome information about hard glass. DTo provide a historical event concerned with hard glass. 31. Why are new uses of glass being developed? ABecause glass is not as safe as plastics. BBecause glass is cheap and easily obtainable. CBecause glass is not as strong and durable as plastics. DBecause glass is more and more widely used. 分值: 8分查看题⽬解析 > 4 D The Hawaiian people did not celebrate Christmas before the arrival of Captain Cook in 1778. It was, however, the protestant missionaries（传教⼠）from New England who first arrived in 1820 that first introduced Christmas to the Hawaiian people. The missionaries reduced the Hawaiian language to written form, enabling the Hawaiian people to read and write in their own language. Many words for which there were no clear Hawaiian language equivalents（对应词）were translated phonetically. Let’s look at some key phrases that you may hear in Hawaii during the Christmas and New Year’s Day holiday season. •Mele Kalikimaka — Merry Christmas. The words “Mele Kalikimaka” are a phonetic translation. When the missionaries and other Westerners first brought the custom of Christmas to the islands, the Hawaiians had difficulty pronouncing “Merry Christmas” and turned it into words that rolled more easily off their tongues. •Hau’oli Makahiki Hou —Happy New Year. The western Christmas and New Year fell during this same time of the year when the Hawaiians traditionally honored the earth for giving them plenty to eat. This period of resting and feasting was called Makahiki (mahkahHEEkee). It lasted for 4 months, and no wars or conflicts were allowed during this time. Because makahiki also means “year”， the Hawaiian phrase for “Happy New Year” became “Hau’oli (happy) Makahiki (year) Hou (new)”． •Mele Kalikimaka me ka Hau’oli Makahiki Hou — Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. •Mahalo Nui Loa。

2017年高考押题卷英语（二）第二部分阅读理解第一节AWith exams just around the corner, now is a good time to explore some of UCL’s lesser-known study spaces and get down to some revision. Here are some good choices for you.UCL Senate House HubUCL Senate House Hub opene d in 2015 and provides 144 study spaces. What’s more, you can check how many spaces are available online before you head to the hub! Located on the third floor of the South Block of Senate House, the center has room for individual and group study in traditional library spaces, as well as casual arm chairs and bar-style desks.UCL Eastman Dental LibraryThe newly refurbished UCL Eastman Dental Library is located halfway along Gray’s Inn Road and is open from Monday to Friday, 9:00 am–8:00 pm. The library has 72 study spaces, and many IT facilities are available. The library also has a study room for meetings and a computer room with an interactive whiteboard.UCL Language & Speech Science LibraryUCL Language & Speech Science Library (LaSS) has disabled access and has recently been refurbished to add extra study spaces. With only 49 spaces, LaSS is smaller than most other UCL Libraries and tends to fill up relatively quickly, so get there early to avoid disappointment.Senate House LibraryThis one may be cheating as the Senate House Library is not technically a UCL library. However, all UCL students and staff can register for free membership online. With millions of books and journals, Senate House Library offers some places a little less used by UCL students but perfect for getting down to some hard work.21. The four places are mainly introduced to someone who __________.A. loves readingB. is preparing for examsC. likes learning onlineD. prefers to study in libraries22.

LaSS may be the smallest one among the four li braries.BKathy Fletcher and David Simpson have a son named Santi. He had a friend who sometimes went to school hungry. So Santi invited him to occasionally eat and sleep at his house.That friend had a friend and that friend had a friend, and now when you go to dinner at Kathy and David’s house on Thursday night there might be 15 to 20 teenagers gathering around the table, and later there will be groups of them crashing in the basement or in the few small bedrooms upstairs. The kids who show up at Kathy and David’s have suffered the pains of modern poverty: homelessness, hunger, abuse.And yet by some miracle, hostile soil has produced beautiful flowers. Kids come from around the city. Spicy chicken and black rice are served. Cellphones are banned. The kids who call Kathy and David ―Momma‖ and ―Dad,‖ are polite and clear the dishes. Birthdays and graduations are celebrated. Songs are performed. Each meal we go around the table and everybody has to say something nobody else knows about them. Each meal the kids show their promise to care for one another.The adults in this community give the kids the chance to present their gifts. ―At my first dinner, Edd read a poem that I first thought was from Langston Hughes, but it turned out to be his own. Kesari has a voice that somehow appeared from New Orleans jazz from the 1920s. Madeline and Thalya practice friendship as if it were the highest art form.‖―They give us a gift — complete intolerance of social distance. When I first met Edd, I held out my hand to shake his. He looked at it and said, ―We hug here,‖ and we’ve been hugging since.‖Bill Milliken, a veteran youth activist, is often asked which programs turn aro und kids’ lives. ―I still haven’t seen one program change one kid’s life,‖ he says. ―What changes people is relationships. Somebody is willing to walk through the shadow of the valley of adolescence with them.‖ Souls are not saved in bundles. Love is the necessary force.25.

What does Bill mean in his words?A. Love is the power to change a kid’s life.B. Money is needed to start programs for kids.C. A program can change a group of kid’s lives.D. Kids change their relationships in a program.CDo you like eating processed meat? If you do, think twice now if you want to eat such meat for the sake of your health. Why? It’s because eating processed meat can cause cancer, World Health Organization (WHO) experts said last Monday.Processed meat is meat that has been preserved by salting, smoking, drying or canning. Experts from the WHO’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in Lyon, France studies 800 patients. The experts connected processed meat, such as hot dogs and bacon, with at least three kinds of cancer. A person who eats 50 grams of processed meat per day—about two pieces of bacon—increases his or her risk of bowel(肠) cancer by 18 percent.[来源:Z_xx_]The IARC has included processed meat in its Group 1 list, for which there is ―enough evidence‖of connection with cancer. Tobacco is also on the Group 1 list.WHO experts also say red meat, including beef, lamb and pork, is ―probably‖carcinogenic (致癌的) to humans. Dr. Kurt Strait is with the IARC. He said in a statement that the risk of cancer increases with the amount of meat a pers on eats. Health experts in some countries advised against eating large amounts of red and processed meat. But those suggestions had been centered on the increased risk of heart disease and obesity.However, meat industry groups protest the result of the WHO study. They say that meat is part of a balanced diet. They also say the causes of cancer are broad, and include environment and lifestyle factors.The WHO report cites the Global Burden of Disease project, which shows that diets high in processed meat lead to 34,000 cancer deaths per year worldwide.29. It can be inferred that the items on the Group 1 list of the IARC ________.A. are all processed foodsB. aren’t often eaten by peopleC. can be the most dangerous to humansD. can greatly increase the risk of cancer30. What can take the place of the underlined word ―protest‖?A. Learn from.B. Disagree with.C. Take interest in.D. Pay attention to.31. What can be used as the best title of the passage?A. WHO: Processed Meat Can Cause CancerB. The Importance of Having a Balanced DietC. Eating Too Much Red Meat Is Bad for HumansD. Scientists Found the Causes of Some Kinds of CancerDIf you want to convince the boss you deserve a pay rise or promotion, the solution could be simple—eat the same food as they do. Psychologists have discovered managers are much more likely to instantly trust us if we choose the same dishes as them.[来源:Z_xx_]During experiments, discussions over wages and work conditions were much more successful if both sides chose to snack on the same treats. And shoppers were much more likely to buy a product advertised on TV by someone eating a similar food to them at the time.The reason is thought to be so-called similarity attraction theory – w here people tend to like others who have similar tastes or habits to themselves. But this is believed to be one of the first studies highlighting the role of food in this relationship. Researchers at Chicago University in the US conducted a series of experiments to examine food’s role in earning trust.In a test, participants were told to watch TV –where someone pretending to be a member of the public praised a certain product. The volunteers were given Kit Kat bars to nibble, while the TV people ate either a KitKat or grapes as they talked.The results showed viewers were much more likely to express an interest in buying the product if the TV showed the other person eating a Kit Kat too.The researchers added, ―Although similarity in food consumption is not a sign of whether two people will get along, we find consumers treat this as such. They feel more trusting of those who consume as they do. It means people can immediately begin to feel friendship and develop a bond, leading to smoother transactions from the start.’Harley Street psychologist Dr Lucy Atcheson said it was already known that wearing similar clothes could instantly create trust. But this was the first report that food had the same effect. She said, ―This is really interesting. It makes sense as people feel they have common ground and can trust the other person. That means negotiations are more likely to be successful.32. According to the passage, customers are likely to buy a product from a dealer who______.A. has the same taste as themB. advertises his products on TVC. reduces the price of his productsD. pays attention to the quality of his products33. The experiments conducted by researchers at Chicago University show that ______.A. food plays an important role in earning people’s trustB. bosses like employees that have the same taste as themC. people who have similar tastes to their boss’s earn moreD. people have less interest in buying products advertised on TV34. What can be inferred from the passage?A. People who eat similar food are more likely to trust each other.B. People will get along with each other if they like to eat similar things.C. The effect of wearing similar clothes hasn’t been proved by researchers.D. People are more likely to make friends with those wearing the same clothes as them.35. Which of th e following sayings can be an example of the similarity attraction theory?A. Honesty is the best policy.B. All good things come to an end.C. Birds of a feather flock together.D. Where there is a will, there is a way.第二节We all know that being grateful and appreciative is very beneficial. ____36____ Gratitude belongs to the category of advanced life skills because it can completely transform your life.Help others turn away from negativity.

AIntroductionBlenheim Palace is one of the Europe’s largest and greatest palaces. It was built between 1705 and 1722 as a reward of the British government to John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, for defeating King Louis XIV’s army at Blenheim, a small Bavarian village on the Danube River.The palace was designed by Sir John Vanbrugh, which displayed strength and arm glory. It is the largest non-royal building in England and is now listed by the UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.Winston ChurchillIn 1874, the palace was the birthplace of the duke's most famous descendant. Winston Churchill, who was to become the UK's Prime Minister (some would say Britain’s greatest 20th-century politician ) and Nobel prize winner for literature. It is also in Blenheim that Winston got married to Clementine Hozier in 1908.A lasting exhibition is devoted to the man’s life, work and writings. Winston and his wife are buried in Bladon Church withinthe palace.Opening Hours & AdmissionBlenheim is still the home of the 11th Duke of Marlborough and is therefore not open all year round (although the park is).

Admission is ￡2.50 for adults and ￡1.50 for children.Note that numerous discounts exist for seniors, students, children and groups. Please refer to the official website for more details.21. What can be learned, about Blenheim Palace?A. It is the Europe’s largest and greatest palaces.B. It is the largest royal building in England.C. It is now one of the world’s heritage sites.D. It was built in honor of Prime Minister Winston Churchill22 What does the underlined word in the text mean?A. A house keeper.B.A child or a child’s child.C.A family doctorD. A grand parent23.

A total of 9 bullets was found, and the various tests and analysis have confirmed that they were indeed fired at the animal in the 19th Century.Nine of the wounds on the animal are believed to have been caused by Enfield Pattern 1853 muskets. These old injuries were concentrated around the animals tail and hind legs, suggesting that the alligator could have possibly been used as a target for shooting practice by Confederate troops.The huge animal also bore five other bullet wounds from three different calibers (口径)of hunting guns, as well as many dents and scars, which shows that it survived many firearm injuries in the past. It did not however, survive the six 50-caliber bullets fired at him by the group of amateur hunters from Jackson, who were finally able to take it down.The bullets were confirmed as true musket from between 1850 and 1870. This incredible animal brings a whole new view on this large animal native to the southeastern United States. American alligators have been known for years to live well over 50 years and were thought capable of possibly living as long as 70 or 80 years, but this one was estimated to have been 185 years old at the time of its death.Others like turtles, have been known, to have lifespans of over 150 years, but it is the first of crocodile of such an old ageever found. It is also one of the biggest alligators ever killed in the United States. The heaviest ever recorded, weighing in at an unbelievable 1,011.5 lbs, was pulled out of a river in Alabama in August of this yea.25. Which of the following facts about the nine wounds is amazing ?A. They didn’t cause death to the alligator.B. They were concentrated around the animals’tail and hind legsC. They left many dents and scars on the alligator.D. They were left by musket from the Civil War era.26. What can be learned about American alligators?A. They have a lifespan of over 150 years.B. They can live as long as 70 or 80 years.C. They weigh as much as 910 pounds on average.D. They are the biggest alligators of all27. What can be inferred from the passage ?A. People’s understanding of American alligators may be changedB. Rivers in Alabama must be full of such huge alligatorsC. American alligators are in danger of dying out.D. The six 50-caliber bullet is the most powerful one.CTwo sculptures of life-size lions, each weighing about 5 tons in ancient times, have been discovered in what is now Turkey. The discovery of the massive lions, along with other pieces such as a large stone basin about 7 feet in diameter, left the archaeologists with a mystery ——what were they intended for?A search of the surrounding area revealed no evidence of a Hittite settlement dating back to the time of the statues. Also, thesteep size of the sculptures meant that the sculptors likely did not intend to move them very far.Summers assumes that, rather than being meant for a palace or a great city, the lions were being created for a monument to mark something else- water“I think it's highly likely that that monument was going to be associated with one of the very abundant springs that are quite close,” he said in the interview, ”There are good parallels (平行线) for association of Hittite sculptural traditions with water sources”Indeed one well-known monument site, known as Eflatun Pnar, holds a sacred pool that "is fed by a spring beneath the pool itself,” write Yiit Erbil and Alice Mouton in an article that was published in the most recent edition of the Journal of Near Eastern Studies. The two researchers were writing about water religions in ancient Anatolia (Turkey)."According to the Hittite cuneiform(楔形文字)texts, water was seen as an effective purifying element,” Erbil and Mouton write, "used in the form of cleaning or even full baths during ritual performances, its cleaning power is self-evident."To the Hittites the natural world, springs included, was a place of great religious importance, one worthy of monuments with giant lions. "These things (water sources) were sacred, just as their mountains were sacred,” Summers said.28. According to the text ,how did the two life-size lions impress the archaeologists?A. Very massiveB. Well-constructedC. UnbelievableD. Mysterious29. According to Summers' assumption, why were the lions carved ?A. They were intended to be moved far away,B. They were used as a monument in honor of their ancestor.C. They were created as a monument to mark water.D. They were built to mark their territory.30. What can be inferred from the text ?A. Water was highly valued by the the Hittites.B. There was a serious shortage of water in ancient AnatoliaC. Lions were of great religious importanceD. The Hittites used to fight over water resources.31. What would be the best title of the text ?A. The Hittite cuneiformB. What were the lions intended for?C.A confusing archaeological findD. Digging up lionsDThe term “to extend an olive branch” means to make an offer of peace or reconciliation(和好). This term has Biblical origins, coming from the section of the Old Testament that deals with the flood; the sign that the flood is over is an olive branch brought back to the ark(方舟) by a dove. Olive branches were also symbols of peace in Ancient Greece and Rome, and they continue to be used in various works of art that are meant to suggest peace.Some people have suggested that the olive was a very deliberate and well-considered choice as a metaphor(比喻)for peace, because olive trees famously take years to mature. War is typically very, hard on the trees because people cannot take the time to nurture them and plant new ones. Therefore, the offer of an olive branch would suggest that someone is tired of war, whether it be an actual war or a falling out between friends.In Ancient Greek and Roman times, people would offer actual olive branches. In Rome, for example, defeated armies traditionally carried olive branches to indicate that they were giving in, and the Greeks used them into weddings and other ceremonies. In the modem era, the branch is usually metaphorical, rather than actual, not least because the plants can be a bit difficult to obtain.Many people agree that peace negotiations (谈判)at all levels of society are a good idea. Between nations, obviously, it is important to extend an. olive branch to ensure mutual safety and to help the world run more smoothly. This act can also be important on a personal level, as resolving conflict and learning to get along with others is viewed as an important life skill in many cultures.At some point m their lives, many people will be advised to extend an olive branch to settle a dispute or resolve an issue. Some people believe that it takes an immense amount of courage to take this action, as it often comes with an admission of wrongdoing and regret.32. According to the Bible,___________A. an olive branch suggests flood is coming.B. the ark is made of olive tree wood.C. an olive branch means flood is overD. a dove loves to settle on the olive branch.33. The olive is considered a good choice as a metaphor for peace for the following reasons EXCEPT .A. olive trees famously take years to matureB. olive branches make people tired of warC. war is typically very hard on the treesD. people cannot take the time to nurture them while at war34. Why are actual olive branches seldom used in modem times ?A. Olive trees are being protected now.B. Olive tress are planted only in certain countries.C. Olive tress can be far to seek.D. There is no need to use real olive branches.35. It can be learned from the text that to extend an olive branch________A. is not important on a personal levelB. is only important between nations.C. takes a lot of courage.D. is an important life skill m many cultures.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，选项中有两项多余选项。

At 600 p.m. on Wednesday.BThe world is filled with smart，educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago，my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic fied it in just a few minutes. He new what was wrong by simply listening to the engine sound. I was amaed. The sad truth is that great talent is not enough.I am constantly shoced at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that lessthan 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100，000 a year. A business consultant who specialies in the medical trade told me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase，“They are one sill away from great wealth.”There is an old saying that goes，“JOB means ‘Just Over Broe’”.And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people. Because schools do not thin financial intelligence is intelligence，most worers “live within their means”.They wor and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend that young people see wor for what they will learn，more than what they will earn.When I as the classes I teach，“How many of you can coo a better hamburger than McDonald's？” almost all the students raise their h ands. I then as，“So if most of you can coo a better hamburger，how come McDonald's maes more money than you？” The answer is obvious McDonald's is ecellent at business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their sills at building a better hamburger rather than the sills of selling and delivering the hamburger.25. The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that .A. he is just one of the talented peopleB. he is ready to help othersC. he has a sharp sense of hearingD. he nows little about car repairing26.The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by“”.A. spend more than they can affordB. do in their own wayC. live in their own circleD. live within what they earn27. Why do talented people earn so little according to the author?A. They don't wor hard enough.B. They lac financial intelligence.C. They don't mae full use of their talents.D. They have no specialied sills.28. The main purpose of the author is to tell us .A. how young people can find a satisfactory jobB. what schools should teach about financeC. why so many talented people are poorD. how McDonald's maes much moneyCRegarded as one of the English language’s most gifted poets, John eats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy. Although eats didn’t receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didn’t attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family’s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father’s death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother’s passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.At around the age of 16, the teenage John eats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taen too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Eaminer in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, eats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticied by a magaine. However, the negative response didn’t stop his pursuit of rhythm (韵律).John eats’ net wor was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy’s hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Endymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella. During this time, John eats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life eperiences. He would have to have the “nowledge” associated with his poems. His net wor was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would eep him from his wor and eventually tae his life in 1821.29. John eats’ attitude towards life changed because of _________.A. his early education from schoolB. the deaths of his parentsC. Edmund Spenser’s poetryD. the criticism of a magaine30. What is the common thing between John eats and his mother?A. They died of the same disease.B. They had a bad childhoodC. They read many boos.D. They showed strong interest in poetry31. While pursuing his dream of becoming a poet first, John eats was _________.A. determinedB. eperiencedC. nowledgeableD. impatient32. What do we now from the passage?A. eats received little education at school.B. eats once had a chance of becoming a doctor.C. In 1816 eats spent two months writing a poem.D. Endymion was about a real love story.DEveryone nows that death is natural, but do you have any idea of the process of dying? Modern scientists divide the process of dying into two phases---clinical or temporary death and biological death. Clinical death occurs when the vital organs, such as the heart or lungs, have ceased to function, but have not suffered permanent damage. The organism can still berevived(复活). Biological death occurs when changes in the organism lead to the “breaing up” of vital cells and tissues. Death is then unchangeable and final.Scientists have been seeing a way to prolong the period of clinical death so that the organism can remain alive before biological death occurs. The best method developed so far involves cooling of the organism, co mbined with narcotic sleep. By slowing down the body’s metabolism(新陈代谢), cooling delays the processes leading to biological death.To illustrate how this wors, scientists performed an eperiment on a si-year-old female money called eta. The scientist put eta to sleep with a narcotic. Then they surrounded her body with ice-bags and began checing her body temperature. When it had dropped to 28 degrees the scientists began draining blood from an artery. The money’s blood pressure decreased and an hour later both the heart and breathing stopped clinical death set in. For twenty minutes eta remained in this state. Her temperature dropped to 22 degrees. At this point the scientists pumped blood into an artery in the direction of the heart and started artificial br eathing. After two minutes eta’s heart became active once more. After fifteen minutes, spontaneous(自发的)breathing began, and after four hours eta opened her eyes and lifted her head. After si hours, when the scientists tried to give her a penicillin injection, eta seied the syringe and ran with it around the room. Her behavior differed little from that of a healthy animal.33. Scientists try to mae the time of clinical death longer in order to _________A. cool the organism.B. delay the coming of biological death.C. slow down the body’s metabolism.D. bring vital cells and tissues bac to active life.34. How did the scientists put eta into clinical death?A. By putting her to sleep, lowering her temperature and draining her blood.B. By surrounding her body with ice-bags and draining her blood.C. By lowing her blood pressure and stopping her heart from beating.D. By draining her blood, lowering her blood pressure and stopping her breathing.35.All of the following indicate that the money has almost restored to her original physical state ecept the fact that _________A. her heart beat again.B. she rejected a penicillin injection.C. she regained her normal breath.D. she acted as lively as a healthy money.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。

It is, however, expected to be fast.Many chains like McDonald's have struggled with slower food delivery in recent years, because there are more items on the menu. But the world's largest restaurant chain, which serves 68 million customers daily in 119 countries, is trying to change that.For several months, McDonald's has been testing what's called the “justforyou experience”. In 200 U S restaurants (and more than 2，000 across the globe), customers are able to order directly from a self-serve kiosk(售货亭), after which an employee brings the meal directly to the table.McDonald's chief executive Steve Easterbrook, speaking at a McDonald's in New York's Tribeca neighbourhood on Thursday, said the company has long expected customers to adapt to its business model of ordering at the counter and then waiting to collect their own food. Now, he said, “We're adapting our business around customers.”It showed that “test runs at more than 500 restaurants…showed an increase in foot traffic and试卷第2页，共12页contributed to a mid-single-digit percentage increase in restaurant sales, lifting the 5 to 6 average check by 1, on average.” Customer satisfaction scores also increased, “because families, in particular, appreciat e having their food brought to them.”The company also announced the beginning of a new mobile order-and-pay app, which would allow customers to order and pay for food from their smart phones.Mike, a common customer, said, “As a father of two small childre n, I'm every fast-food chain's target customer. My wife and I try to avoid McDonald's when possible, but like many parents we end up going. I've used the self-serve kiosks and like them a lot: they're easy to use, reduce the pressure of making a choice with impatient customers behind you, and make a big difference in delivery time. I just hope they don't start expecting me to tip.” 1、Why do many chains have a slower food delivery in the past several years? A ．Because they have struggled many expectations. B ．Because they have more dishes to serve people. C ．Because they have the world's largest restaurant chains. D ．Because sometimes they have too many customers.2、How do customers get their food after ordering food self-serve kiosks? A ．By testing McDonald's machine. B ．By taking food by themselves. C ．By letting waiters bring food for them. D ．By letting employees serve for them.3、What's the result of trying “justforyou experience”？ A ．It is a great success. B ．It caused traffic jam.C ．It's well received only by app users.D ．It still needs to be observed.4、What can we infer from what Mike said? A ．His family don't like McDonald's. B ．He's willing to give tips for good service. C ．Self-serve kiosks are a good choice. D ．It's hard for him to spend the delivery time.“Smombies”—people walking while staring at their smart phones—are very real and a growing cause for concern. Tired of having to constantly alert both locals and tourists to pay more attention to their surroundings to avoid serious accidents, authorities of a small German town have come up with a more positive solution—embedding(嵌入) traffic lights in the pavement to make them visible to people constantly looking down at their phones.The seemingly ridiculous safety measure was put in place. Authorities in Augsburg decided to act, installing ground level traffic lights at two tram(有轨电车) stops last Tuesday. The lights flash red every time a tram is approaching, or when the regular traffic light turns red. “We realized that the normal traffic light isn't in the line of sight of many pedestrians these days，” said Tobias Hermes, a city administration official. “So we decided to have an additional set of lights—the more we have, the more people are likely to notice them.”Some Augsburg residents appear to be quite happy with the idea.“I think it makes sense，” Jack Smith said, speaking to TheAugsburgerAllgemeine. “One always sees young people these days running over red lights. This makes it more obvious that you need to stop.”Others, however, found the need for ground traffic lights disturbing and even frightening. “I find it scary that smart phone users are so engrossed that they need to install lights in the ground so that they notice the tram coming，” one person told the loc al paper.But do this kind of pavement-embedded lights actually work? Well, if one interviewed teenager is to be believed, not really. “To be honest I didn't even notice it，” he told TheAugsburgerAllgemeine. “Maybe it'd be useful at night, but yeah, I didn't realize it was there until just now.”The word “smombie”—a mashup of the words smart phone and zombie—was born in Germany. It was voted “youth word of the year” in 2015, but the serious consequences of this behaviour are no laughing matter.5、Which of t he following about “smombies” is TRUE?A．It refers to people who are fond of walking.B．It refers to people who are looking at phones while walking.C．It refers to people who concern others very much.D．It refers to people who hate locals and tourists.6、Which of the following can replace the underlined word “engrossed” in Paragraph 4? A．Disturbed.B．Frightened.C．Addicted.D．Encouraged.试卷第4页，共12页7、What may be the best title for the text?A ．Ground traffic lights for people looking at smart phonesB ．Effective ways to educate people to obey traffic rulesC ．The meanings of ground traffic lightsD ．The serious problem of traffic safetyI was sitting in a fast food restaurant with my two children, who at the time were about 6 and 9. Inside there was also a group of teens in Gothic(哥特式的) dress and appearance. Everyone kept away from them inside the restaurant.Outside the restaurant, people jumped past the homeless man searching the garbage bin, who was looking for food or perhaps a cigarette. I too had rushed past him with my youngsters, refusing his request for money but thinking maybe, just maybe, I would bring him some food. It turned out that I didn't have to.One girl in the Gothic youth jumped up, went to the counter and ordered more food, which she then took outside to the homeless man and sat on the bench with him, chatting away as he ate. He didn't say much —he was greedy —but I think I saw a bit of a smile and a flash in his eyes as he nodded to her questions.Writing this now, several years later, I still choke up. That girl was a model citizen living the values of goodness and kindness. These are values I have always held high and hoped to teach my kids. She made my job much easier. We stopped by on our way out and thanked her for setting such a positive example for us. I hope that hearing that has made as much of a difference in her life as seeing what she did has made to ours.8、Why did people keep away from the teens in the fast food restaurant? A ．Because they were dressed in Gothic dress. B ．Because they were too young to pay their meal. C ．Because they liked to quarrel with others. D ．Because they killed two children.9、What did the homeless man want the author to do? A ．To help him get money. B ．To bring him some food. C ．To provide him with money.D ．To refuse to take care of him.10、It can be inferred that the homeless man ________. A ．was very greedy in deedB ．was very hungry at that timeC ．didn't like talking with others muchD ．didn't answer the girl's questions11、What can we learn about the author from the passage? A ．The author is also a model citizen like the girl. B ．The author sets a good example for the girl. C ．The author is deeply moved by the girl.

高考押题卷2017英语及答案
高考押题卷2017英语第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AI remember the first time that I was extremely happy. I wasabout 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns to play various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code(编码)for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some of the BASIC code. I just gave myself an infinite number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing it forever. This was also my first introductionto algebra, and I didn't even know it at the time. This was a decisive moment in my life. I was quite excited because of what I was learningand what I was able to do. As a result, I was enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self learning and computers, and I was quite happydoing them too.I've noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic about what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and content in life too. It may also lead to success, wealth, and achievements.Success, wealth, or achievements can also bring some people happiness, yet I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know many people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember, happiness is the journey of life, not the destination.21. What can we know from Paragraph 1?A. The author has a great talent for algebra.B. Creative thinking is necessary for every child.C. The BASIC code of the computer is not difficult.D. The author's experience in his childhood changed his life.22. The underlined word "infinite" means .A. bigB. limitlessC. normalD. small23. The author wants to tell us through his experience in the school thatA. interest is the best teacherB. children are the hope of the futureC. young people are fearlessD. where there's a will, there's a way24. We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. people who are rich and successful in career generally feel unhappyB. wealth can't bring people any happiness and comfortC. one will feel unhappy once he has gained all the things that he wantsD. being enthusiastic about what you do is more important than wealthBParents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.I've seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling (懒散地躺))himself on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I don’t knowwhat to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.” He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She confessed (坦白 ) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly. ” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.“Where did we go wrong?” Her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.25. This passage is most probably written by_________.A. a specialist in teenager studiesB. a headmaster of a middle schoolC. a parent with teenage childrenD. a doctor for mental health problems26. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refersto________.A. the change from good to bad that's seen in a childB. the way that parents often blame themselvesC. the opinion that a child has of his parentsD. the advice that parents want their children to follow27. From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters _________.A. pay no attention to themB. are too busy to look after themC. have come to hate themD. feel helpless to do much about them28. What is the author’s opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?A. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.B. Parents should pay still more attention to the change.C. Parents should work more closely with school teachers.D. Parents are at fault for the change in their children.CLife in the ClearTransparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet—as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless they’re eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It’s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light, at least not very much, Light can pass through it without bending orsto pping. That means a transparent object doesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water. You don’t see it—you see the things behind it.To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments, so its tissues won’t absorb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials—skin, fat, and more—and light moves through each at a different speed. Every timelight moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see—through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-lie(果冻状的) material and spread themselves over it .Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how they’re doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn a non-transparent milky white.29.According to Paragraph 1, transparent animals _______.A. stay in groupsB. can be easily damagedC. appear only in deep oceanD. are beautiful creatures30.The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means __________.A. silentlyB. graduallyC. regularlyD. completely31.One way for an animal to become transparent is to ________.A. change the direction of light travelB. gather materials to scatter lightC. avoid the absorption of lightD. grow bigger to stop light32.The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals ________.A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after deathC. produce more tissues for their survivalD. take effective action to reduce light spreadingDDid you know that a bowl of rice could save your iPod if youdrop it in a swimming pool by accident? Or that the camera on your phone could tell you what's wrong with your TV remote control? The experts at Geek Squad () have made a gadget(小机件) rescue guide. So, let’s take a look at some of their useful advice.How to get more juice out of your phone battery?If your battery goes dead but you need to get a number or send one last text, try warming it up. That may give you a tiny bit of power. Take the battery from the phone and rub it between your hands. Or warmit under your arm for a few minutes. Then try to start the phone – but use it quickly.What to do if your gadget gets wet?First, try drying it out with a vacuum cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner isn’t at hand, fill a pot or bowl with uncooked rice and put your we gadget inside. The dry, uncooked rice will absorb all the water and, after a few hours, you should be able to use the gadget. Don’t forget to remove the battery and SIM card before you dry it.What to do if your TV remote control stops working?If replacing the batteries doesn’t work, get the camerafunction up on your phone and point the remote at the lens(镜头). When you press a button on the remote, if it's working then the glassbobble(小球) at the front of the remote will light up when you look atit on the screen of your phone. This is because the screen on a phone or digital camera picks up infrared rays (红外线), even though your eyesdon't. If the glass bobble doesn’t light up, the remote is broken. Ifit does, the receiving device is broken.33. If your cell phone falls into a sink, you can .A. warm it up under your arm.B. put it into the uncooked rice.C. press it with both of your hands.D. remove the battery after you dry it.34.Why can a phone be used to prove the TV remote control works well?A. Because it can receive infrared ray.B. Because it can reflect infrared ray.C. Because it can improve the TV remote control.D. Because it can picture the TV remote control.35. In which section of a newspaper can we possibly read this text?A. EntertainmentB. FinanceC. CultureD. Life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。

ALast Thursday, Michael and Linda stood behind large food trucks distributing meals to 4,000 homeless people for their wedding reception on the border town of Kilis. The couple had decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception, they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area.The idea came from the bridegroom's father, Ted, who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people who've suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day.Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was really shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turkey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arrived at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients（接受者）．On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one with a greater good. "It's like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis or sharing something with people who don't even have the most basic things," Michael said. "Hopefully, this will also give the start for other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need."21. Why did so many people crowd in Kilis?A. To attend Michael and Linda's wedding.B. To support the organization.C. To escape the damaging earthquake.D. To help distribute free daily meals.22. How did the couple celebrate their wedding?A. They treated their friends and relatives to a big dinner.B. They shared their happiness with the homeless in Kilis.C. They afforded the entire cost of the day for feeding victims.D. They took photos with the grateful victims.23. What does the underlined word "approached" in Paragraph 2 mean?A. took inB. moved towardsC. came acrossD. consulted with24. We can know from the text that __________________. .A. Kilis is a place which lies in southeastern TurkeyB. Ted was a representative of the organizationC. Linda adopted the suggestion immediately she heard itD. Michael doubted if more new couples would follow himBResearch shows that childhood friendships are important indicators of future success and social adjustment. Children’s relationships with peers (同龄人) strongly influence their success in school，and children with fewer friends are more at risk of dropping out of school，becoming depressed and other problems.Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Child’s PlayWhen 6-year-old Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning，her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie. “Though they were only separated by a weekend，the girls ran right into each other’s arms and hugged,”recalls Rachel’s mother Kathryn Willis of Gilbert.“It was like a scene from a movie.”Most parents instinctively (本能地) know that having friends is good for their child. Experts agree that friendship is not simply child’s play，but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life.A Skill for Life“Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for adulthood,” says Dr.Robbie Adler-Tapia，psychologist with the Center for Children’s Health & Life Development at the EastValley Family Resource Center.Researcher William Hartup states，“Peer relations contribute significantly to both social and cognitive (认知的) development.” Hartup conclu des that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior，but rather，how well a child gets along with other children.The work of Arizona State University professor of Developmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids while the lack of friends is detrimental.Good Friendships Don’t Just HappenExperts agree that it is essential for children to establish high-quality friendships. But，researchers warn，these friendships don’t necessarily just happen. Often，a good friendship begins with involved parents.Psychologist Dr.Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading.Bad CompanyMany parents worry about the quality as well as the quantity of their child’s friendships.“When she was in 1st grade，her supposed ‘best friend’ began calling her names and threatening to hurt her,” says Mindy Miller. “My daughter wasn’t allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class. It really crushed her spirit. I told my daughter she didn’t need a ‘friend’ like that.”“I’ll bend over backwards(拼命) to help my son get together with a friend I think is good for him,” Adler-Tapia says. “I don’t look at it as manipulation (操纵)，just positive parental involvement.”25. The example of Rachel and Abbie is used to indicate that________.A. childhood friendship is of great significance to their growthB. a positive friendship helps children solve emotional and physical problemsC. it is a proven fact that peer friendship is the most rewarding experience throughout lifeD. Rachel missed her friend Abbie very much because of their separation of one weekend26. The underlined word “detrimental” could be replaced by________.A. aggressiveB. disappointingC. ridiculousD. harmful27. We can learn from the passage that high-quality friendship most probably results from______.A. social skills and good study habitsB. school grades and classroom behaviorsC. academic success and social adaptationD. positive parental involvement and social skills28. From the last paragraph we can conclude that Dr.Robbie Adler-T apia agrees that________.A. parents should regard making friends as something that just happensB. it’s wise for parents to support and encourage healthy peer relationshipsC. parents only need to help their children to cope with difficult social situationsD. parents are supposed to encourage their children to make as many friends as they canCEcotourism：A Different Way to TravelAre you attracted to unknown places？Do you prefer to vacation away from other tourists？Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions，you just might be an ecotourist.Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world—and leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990s，and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the entire tourism industry . The Kapawi Ecolodge in Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin is contributing to that expansion，and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like.At the Ecolodge，a small group of cabins sits in the middle of the Achuar p eople’s reserve and is only accessible by air. From here，visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do，local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket，where they find food，clothing，medicine and tools. As a result，tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment.The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people，but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2011.The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.You probably won’t start your own ecolodge，but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines：Protect the environment；Support local businesses；Respect the local customs and traditions.The world is full of fascinating places to visit. As an ecotourist，you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well.29. According to the text，the ecotourists should be________.A. those who like to experience the easily-remembered natural environmentB. those who like to go to their travelling places by hikingC. those who prefer an undamaged natural world and remain what it used to beD. those who prefer unique natural environment of cultural relics30. At the Kapawi ecolodge，visitors can’t________.A. explore the Amazon rainforestB. reach there by airC. live in the Achuar reserveD. see many travelers from outside31. Which of the words is closest in meaning to the word “snapshot” in the second paragraph?A. Idea.B. Aim.C. Adventure.D. Opportunity.32. We can learn from the passage that________.A. the Kapawi ecolodge will continue to run and manage the lodge after 2011B. the Kapawi ecolodge owners are the Achuar in favor of ecotourismC. the achuar people have benefited a lot by collecting money from ecotouristsD. the owners of Kapawi encourage tourists to appreciate the Achuar cultureDNowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods ( GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms (有机体), which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a non-specific but stable change. For many people, the high-tech production raises all kinds of environmental, ethical, health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions, the idea seems against nature.In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown in the U. S. last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year. The genetic genie is out of the bottle.However, like any new product entering the food chain, GM foods must be subjected to careful testing. In wealthy countries, the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feed fast-growing and underfed populations, the matter is simpler and much more urgent: do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks?The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing. Last year the world's population reached 6 billion. The UN states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400 million women of childbearing age don' t have enough iron, which means their babies are exposed to various birth defeats. As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness.How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutritional values. Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops. Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought, poor soil and crop viruses.33. The passage mainly talks about________.A. the world's food problemB. the development in biotechC. the genetically modified foodsD. the way to solve food shortages34. The underlined sentence “The genetic genie is out of the bottle.” in Paragraph 2 probablymeans that________.A. GM foods are available everywhereB. the technology in producing GM foods is advancedC. genetic technology may have uncontrollable powersD. genetic technology has come out of laboratories into markets35. What's the writer's attitude towards GM foods?A. Enthusiastic.B. Cautious.C. Disapproving.D. Unbelievable.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。
