These imagined cowboys range from white-hat-wearing heroes to gun-shooting hooligans(流氓).But, cowboys are actually real people from US history.When the US Civil War ended, many soldiers had no place to call home. So, they began to drift to the country’s rural West. Ranchers(农场主) hired these men to take care of the cattle and work around the ranch. When the ranch owner wanted to sell the cattle, the cowboys would round up the herd from the open prairie(牧场) and drive the cattle miles to the market.With the invention of barbed wire(铁丝网),the cowboy era(1865-1890) began to come to an end. But people in the East had always been curious about their lifestyle. Many country/western songs during this time tried to capture the true cowboy spirit. Newspapers published cowboy tales in serial form and adventure novels followed. The bigger the fiction, the better the sales. These novels often portrayed cowboys as cruel and violent men. Cowboys carried the bad reputation for many years afterwards.When movies began to be popular in the 1920s, the cowboy image changed again. Now, a cowboy became the great white knight(骑士) that loved his horse more than the beautiful ladies he rescued. As the cowboy of the “Old West” spent more time with his horse than the ladies, this era's image was not entirely false.Then, in the 50s, Hollywood began producing so-called “spaghetti we sterns(意大利西部片)”.They earned the nickname because Italian companies financed the films and TV shows. This started the decade’s “Cowboy Craze”. While this didn’t last long, it made modern country / western music, fashion and dance extremely popular.In recent years, with the help of musicians, radio stations and bars, cowboy nostalgia(怀旧情绪) has returned. Even though his image is still changing — somewhere between ballad singing country boy and bar room fighter —there’s one thing for sure, you can’t keep the cowboy down..41. The purpose of this story is to _____________.A. introduce cowboy movies and novelsB. introduce various productions associated with cowboysC. show the cowboy's everlasting charmD. inform us about the cowboy’s spirit42. Before they became cowboys, they ______________.A. served in the armyB. worked as bar-room fighters.C. owned ranchesD. were adventurous explorers43. During “the cowboy era” mentioned in the story, ______________.A. the cowboy often came to the rescue of ladies in newspaper talesB. the distant Wild West appealed to people in the EastC. cowboys were shown as cruel and violent men on the silver screenD. country music started the cowboy craze which swept the whole country44. By saying “you can’t keep the cowboy down”, the writer means that ______________.A. cowboys are real people in historyB. cowboys still fascinate peopleC. you can't make cowboys unhappyD. you can’t grasp the cowboy spirit45. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A. The cowboy has been presented in different lights in different eras.B. Cowboys are gun-shooting hooligans, without doubt.C. Cowboys have always been a passing phenomenon.D. Cowboys enjoy Italian foods, for example, spaghetti.第二节信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)下面是一篇关于BBC广播电台中BBC Kids Pre school这个栏目下的一些具体小节目的介绍，请阅读下列应用文和相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them．He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts．Then he thinks about the notes in his head．Two years ago，he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata（奏鸣曲）by Beethoven．He surprised everyone around him．Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly，his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable．They say his ability is very rare，but Samuel doesn't even realize that what he can do is special．Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents，but music teachers told him he should study music instead．Now，he studies law and music．Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised．"I grew up with music．My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar．About two years ago，Isuddenly decided to start playing the piano，without being able to read music and without having any lessons．It comes easily to me﹣﹣﹣I hear the notes and can bear them in mind﹣﹣﹣each and every note，"says Samuel．Recently，Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college．The piece had more than a thousand notes．The audience was impressed by his amazing performance．He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it．Samuel says confidently，"It's all about super memory﹣﹣﹣I guess I have that gift．"However，Samuel's ability to remember things doesn't stop with music．His family says that even when he was a young boy，Samuel heard someone read a story，and then he could retell the story word for word．Samuel is still only a teenager．He doesn't know what he wants to do in the future．For now，he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies．26．What is special

drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth （收费站）．"I'm paying for myself，and for the six cars behind me，"she said with a smile，handing over seven tickets．One after another，the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed，"Some lady up ahead already paid your fare．"It turned out that the woman，Natalie Smith，had read something on a friend's refrigerator："Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty．"The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down．Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home．When it stayed on her mind for days，she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down．"I thought it was beautiful，"she said，explaining why she'd taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters，"like a message from above．"Her husband，Frank，liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students，one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson，a local news reporter．Alice put it in the newspaper，admitting that though she liked it，she didn't know where it came from or what it really meant．Two days later，Alice got a call from Anne Herbert，a woman living in Marin．It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper，after turning it around in her mind for days．"Here's the idea，"Anne says．"Anything you think there should be more of，do it randomly．"Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools，leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town，and giving money secretly to a proud old lady．Anne says，"Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can．"The acts of random kindness spread．If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid，who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later．Like all great events，kindness begins slowly，with every single act．Let it be yours!31．Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her？A．She knew the car drivers well．B．She wanted to show kindness．C．She hoped to please others．D．She had seven tickets．32．Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she．A．thought it was beautifully writtenB．wanted to know what it really meantC．decided to write it on a

graduates，I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do．My degree，with honors，in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical．I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow，but I had no idea how to do that．That's when I learned about the Lighthouse Project．I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers．I knew it would be a lot of hard work，and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time．In short，I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly．Neither did my family．Eventually，however，I won the support of my family，and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application．After countless interviews and presentations，I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone．Several months later，I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty．I would be going to a small village near Abuja，Nigeria．Where？What？Nigeria？I had no idea．But I was about to find out．After completing my training，I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation．Though the local villagers were poor，they offered their homes，hearts，and food as if I were their own family．I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse．For the next year or so，I taught in that same schoolhouse．But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me．Sometime during that period，I realized that all those things that had seemed sostrange or unusual to me no longer did，though I did not get anywhere with the local language，and returned to the United States a different man．The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever．36．What do we know about the author？A．His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge．B．His dream at university was to become a

arrival at the village，the author was．A．Asked to lead a farming teamB．Sent to teach in schoolhouseC．Received warmly by local villagersD．Arranged to live in a separate house．40．What can we infer from the author's experiences in Nigeria？A．He found some difficulty adapting to the local cultureB．He had learned to communicate in the local language．C．He had overcome all his weakness before he left for home．D．He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students．41．（10分）Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents （洋流）．Most do it using satellites and other high﹣tech equipment．However，ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way﹣﹣﹣by studying movements of random floating garbage．A scientist with many years'experience，he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States．There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear．Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes﹣about 60，000 in total﹣fell into the ocean in a shipping accident．He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back．As expected，the company told him that they didn't．Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment．If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed，he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents．The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing（海滩搜寻）because winds and currents join here，and as a result，there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area．Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed．In a year he collected reliable information on 1，600shoes．With this data，he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents，and publish the findings of their study．As the result of his work，Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean．He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts，with 500subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand．They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves．41．The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to．A．fitting roomsB．trading fairsC．business talksD．group meetings42．Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out．A．what caused the shipping accidentB．when and where the shoes went missingC．whether it was all right to use their shoesD．how much they lost in the shipping accident43．How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption？A．By collecting information from beachcombersB．By studying the shoes found by beachcomberC．By searching the web for ocean currents modelsD．By researching ocean currents data in the library44．Ebbesmeyer is most famous for．A．traveling widely the coastal cities of the worldB．making records for any lost objects on the seaC．running a global currents research associationD．phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea45．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage？A．To call people's attention to ocean pollutionB．To warn people or snipping safety in the oceanC．To explain a unique way of studing ocean currentsD．To

AIf you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on. For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch."What are you doing?" asked one of the visitors."We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!" one of the brothers volunteered excitedly.The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible.After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders（蜘蛛）. worms and a variety of insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the visitors who were laughing them.Then he said quietly and confidently, "Even if we don't dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!"Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for---to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging!But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully, Not every relationship will carry on. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every attempt will be completed. Not every dream will be realized.But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, "Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!" It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truty matters.26.

You can enjoy yourself in the digging.30. Which is the best title for this article?A. How to Achieve a GoalB. Two Brothers and Some Old BoysC. Enjoy the ProgressD. A Journey through the EarthB"No air-conditioning? How can you sleep?" a friend asks, horrified. I've just told him that my family has decided to shut the air-conditioner off, and cut our electric bill.On this first night of our cost-cutting adventure, it's only eighty-five degrees. We're not going to suffer, but the three kids grumble anyway."It's too hot to sleep." my thirteen-year-old daughter complains."I'm about to die from this heat." her brother says."Just try it tonight." I tell them. In truth, I'm too tired to argue for long. My face is sweaty.But I lie quietly, listening to the cricket (蟋蟀) choirs (合唱) outside. That reminds me of childhood.I think about grandma, who lived to ninety-two and was still in charge of my mother's garden until a few weeks ago before she died. And then I'm back there in her house and the summer heat of my childhood. I moved my pillow to the foot of my grandmother's bed, and angled my face toward the open window. I turned the pillow over, hunting for the cooler side.Grandma saw me struggling, "If you just watch for the breeze (light wind)," she said, "you'll cool off and fall asleep."She cranked up（拉起）the Venetian blinds（百叶窗）. I stared at the white curtain, wilhng it to move. Lying still in waiting, I suddenly noticed life outside the window, the bug（虫子）choruses, neighbors, porch-sitting late, speaking in soft words that comforted me."Mom, did you hear that?" my seven-year-old asks, "I think it's an owl（猫头鹰）family.""Probably." I tell him, "Just keep listening..."Without the noisy air-conditioner, the house is strangely peaceful, and the night noises seem close enough to touch. I hope I'm awake tonight, when the first breeze sneaks in.31. What does the underlined word "grumble" mean?A. shoutB. complainC. give upD. lose temper32. The author mentions her childhood to_____.A. memorize her considerate and kind grandmotherB. suggest a way of handling a night without air-conditioningC. share her childhood experience of going without air-conditioningD. convince the readers of the possibility of life without air-conditioning33. How did the author's grandmother help the author feel cooler?A. She opened the windows and drew the curtains.B. She asked the author to observe the soft wind.C.

A night full of memoryC. Waiting for the breezeD. A childhood memoryCIt is a common belief that of all the wonderful gifts that we've been given, one of the greatest is freedom. That is why so many of us try to gain freedom at any cost. But are all kinds of freedom worth seeking?One windy spring day, I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds moving anddancing. As the strong winds blew against the kites, a string kept them in check.Instead of blowing away with the wind, they arose against it to achieve great heights. They shook and pulled, but the restraining (约束) string and the tail kept them being pulled along, facing upward and against the wind. As the kites struggled and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, "Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free!" They flew beautifully even as they fought the restriction of the string. Finally, one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose. "Free at last," it seemed to say. "Free to fly with the wind."Yet freedom from restraint, simply put, is at the mercy of an unsympathetic soft wind. It soon fell to the ground and landed in a mass of weeds and string against a dead bush. "Free at last" free to lie powerless in the dirt, to be blown helplessly along the ground, and to get stuck lifeless against the first obstruction (障碍物).How much like kites we sometimes are. The Heaven gives us misfortunes and restrictions, rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength. Restraint is a necessary match for the winds of opposition. Some of us fought at the rules so hard that we never fly to reach the heights we might have obtained. We keep part of the rules or laws and never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground.Let us each rise to the great heights, recognizing that some of the restraints that we may feel annoyed about are actually the steady force that helps us go up and achieve.36. The kites struggled and trembled against the string because they_________.A. was restrained by the windB. tried to gain absolute freedomC. wanted to dance like birdsD. were at the mercy of the wind37. What can we learn from the result of the kite that broke loose?A. Freedom prevents us from flying.B. It is restraints that stop us rising.C. Without restrains without freedom.D. There is no justice without freedom.38. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. If we want to fly higher, we should fight hard at rules.B. People shouldn't obey rules because it's hard to follow.C. Rules are necessary for us to reach a higher level.D. Some rules are too strict for people to obey.39. In the author's opinion, some of the restraints______.A. are wonderful gifts given by the GodB. are something that we are upset aboutC. can give us power to fly higherD. should be abolished right away40. The passage is probably written for_________.A. general peopleB. teenagersC. freedom seekersD. parentsDWhen you look at yourself in the mirror, do you ever wonder why you look the way you do?No two faces look exactly alike, making a human face as unique as a fingerprint. Genetics obviously play a major role---no two faces share the same DNA. But even in identical twins, who have the same DNA, there are still small differences in their appearances. So what is it that makes each face different?The answer lies in a small piece of you NDA called a "gene enhancer", according to a study published in the journal Science. "There are thousands of enhancers in the human genome (基因组)," study leader Axel Visel, a research with Berkeley Lab, US, told Discovery.According to Visel, these DNA pieces act like switches, turning genes on and off and therefore determining whether a certain facial feature develops in a fetus (胎儿) while it is still in the womb (子宫).What's interesting about gene enhancers is that they don't have to be found anywhere close to the genes they affect. They are able to control their targets from far away, which makes them even more influential.To test how powerful these special DNA pieces are in shaping the face, researchers deleted three of the gene enhancers in mice and compared them with normal mice at 8 weeks of age. The results showed that each enhancer deletion caused a distinct set of differences in the shape of the face---for example, causing an increase or decrease in facial length or width.In fact, scientists first noticed the existence of gene enhancer long ago, but they called them. "junk DNA" back then because they didn't produce prcteins and were thought to have no biological function. But now "it's increasingly clear that importantfunctions are deeply and firmly fixed in this 'junk'," Visel told New Scientist.Understanding this may help scientists learn why and how things go wrong as a fetus develops, leading to facial defects (变异) such as cleft lips (唇腭裂). While some of these defects are caused by genetic mutations (变异), researchers want to study whether gene enhancers also play a role.41. The main purpose of the first paragraph is _______.A. to arouse reader's interest to go further readingB. to encourage readers to look at himself in the mirrorC. to invite readers to answer a scientific questionD. to remind the readers that everyone's face is different42. Which of the following, statement is True according to the passage?A. A human's face is determined by his fingerprints.B. No identical twins have exactly the same appearance.C. It's unknown what makes each face different.D. People with the same DNA have the same faces.43. According to the passage, gene enhancers________.A. play an important role in shaping one's faceB. can only affect the genes they are close toC. are not so powerful as the scientists expectedD. are not found by scientist until recently44. Why are gene enhancer called as "junk DNA" ?A. Because they had no biological function.B. Because they looked like the "junks".C. Because they only affected the facial characteristics.D. Because they didn't produce proteins.45. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Development of solving problems of facial birth defects.B. A new discovery of genetics is found by the journal Science.C. Gene enhancers determine facial characteristics.D. How facial feature develops in a fetus in the womb.第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息，请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。
