Constant worrying about paying the rent was making her ill with stress and she longed to get back to the Cornwall's Penwith peninsula （半岛） where she grew up. Priced out of the housing market, she took the final decision to go to live in a shabby, stand-alone shed which her father once used as his office."It was full of mice and spiders and there was no electricity, toilet, heating or shower, " Catrina remembers. She survived the first year without electricity and still only uses ten pounds-worth a month.Over the years, Catrina has upgraded her modest shed with second-hand windows and doors and had a wood burner installed. Her oven is a camping stove outdoors and she does without a fridge by keeping easily spoiled food outside in a Tupperware box. She buys milk from a local farm to make yogurt and grows fresh herbs, salad and vegetables.Having such an outdoor lifestyle, she's painfully aware of climate change. "I've noticed fewer songbirds and owls. Winters are warmer and weather patterns seem to be changed. The fishermen say there are fewer mackerel（鲭鱼）too.""Plastic pollution in the sea fills me with extreme sadness and anger, " she continues. "And the Amazon rainforest is being burned to the ground because of our desire for an endless supply of cheap burgers and cheap leather. Our ecology and housing crises are both symptoms of human greed.""To save the planet, we all need to fundamentally change the way we live. Although giving up meat, lots of cheap goods, driving and flying may seem like a sacrifice, it could actually make us all a lot happier in the long run. Many studies show that materialistic tendencies are linked to decreased life satisfaction. When I first moved here, it was only meant to be a stopgap. Six years later, I can't imagine living any other way."(1) What mainly leads to Catrina Davies' choice of living in a shed?A. The decision to escape high housing rents.B. The desire of pursuing materialistic enjoyment.C. The attempt to protect the ecological environment.D. The longing for unique surroundings in her hometown.(2) What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. Plastic pollution is closely linked to the climate change.B. Human desire for wealth helps promote life satisfaction.C. It is fundamental to meet people's materialistic needs.D. It will pay off to change the way people live.(3) What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To convey the public's concern about the climate change.B. To advertise the living environment in Catrina's hometown.C. To analyze the close relation between human greed and social problems.D. To introduce Catrina's experience and her appeal for eco-friendly lifestyle.2、【来源】 2020年浙江绍兴高三一模（B篇）第24~26题7.5分(每题2.5分)2020~2021学年11月浙江绍兴高三上学期月考（B篇）第24~26题7.5分(每题2.5分) The central authorities have published the first comprehensive document guiding the governments of various levels to deal with challenges of one of the largest and fastest aging populations in the world.It is predicted that by 2035, the number of people above 60 years old will account for more than one-fourth of the country's population, which is already the case in some big cities. By 2050, China's aging population will approach its peak, with the percentage of the people aged beyond 60 making up 27.4 percent of the total.International experience shows that it is the social security and public service system that bears the main pressure from an aging population. However, if policymakers carefully take the trend into consideration to make the social management and national development policies as well as take enough and effective forward-looking measures, the aging population will not necessarily become a problem.As the experience of many developed economies shows, it is essential that the country transforms its growth model from one driven by production elements to one driven by innovation（创新）before the coming of the aging society, so as to minimize the impact of the loss of labor on the economy. So while increasing the social investment and inputs for the elderly, improving elder care, retirement services and strengthening legal and social protections, the government must also build a high quality work force and introduce advanced and innovative technologies to improve productivity.The plan therefore provides a guideline for local governments to change their view so that rather than seeing senior citizens as simply a financial burden, they should view them as motivation for providing high-quality services and a better social environment. Treating the elderly well is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and building a policy system for pensions, respect for the elderly and a healthy social environment is also a must.Therefore, the aging of the population itself is not a problem. It is an important trend showing the country's social development.(1) What do we know about aging population from the passage?A. It will contribute to the lack of labor force.B. It has reached its peak in China up to now.C. It reflects the advantages of public service system.D. It can be solved completely through technological innovation.(2) What is the author's attitude towards aging population?A. Doubtful.B. Objective.C. Disapproving.D. Optimistic.(3) What is this text?A. An introduction to a new phenomenon.B. A research paper on a social problem.C. A news report of an official plan.D. A comment on a current issue.3、【来源】 2020年浙江绍兴高三一模（C篇）第27~30题10分(每题2.5分)Ecotourism has become increasingly popular in recent years. Travelers visit natural environments with an eye toward funding conservation efforts or boosting local economies. In many cases, ecotourism involves close interaction with wildlife.Now, scientists have analyzed more than 100 research studies on how ecotourism affects wild animals. They find the presence of humans changes the way animals behave, and those changes may put them at risk. Therefore, they have concluded that such trips can be harmful to the animals.When animals interact in seemingly kind ways with humans, they may let down their guard. As animals learn to relax in the presence of humans, they may become bolder in other situations. If this transfers to their interactions with predators （捕食者）, they are more likely to be injured or killed.The presence of humans can also discourage natural predators. It creates a kind of safe place for smaller animals that may make them bolder. For example, in Grand Teton National Park, elk and pronghorns in areas with more tourists are less watchful and spend more time eating.Interacting with people can cause great changes in the characteristics of various species over time, "If animals become accustomed to tourists, we might create unintended consequences—affecting the behavior or population of a species and influencing the species' function in is community," the researchers write.Ecotourism has effects similar to those of animal domestication（驯养）and urbanization. Research has shown that domesticated silver foxes become more obedient and less fearful. Fox squirrels and birds that live in urbanized areas are slower to flee from danger. The phenomena result from evolutionary changes, but also from regular interactions with humans.Scientists hope the new analysis will encourage more research into the interactions between people and wildlife, It is essential to develop further understanding of how various species in various situations respond to human interaction and under what conditions human exposure may place them at risk.(1) We can learn from the passage that.A. ecotourism causes damage to the natural homes of wildlifeB. it is easy for eco-tourists to build up trust with wild animalsC. the effects brought by ecotourism may be harmful to the animalsD. wildlife interactions with humans strengthen their function in community(2) What does the underlined word "bolder" in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. shyerB. braverC. wiserD. swifter(3) The author mentions pronghorns in paragraph 4 as an example to show that.A. wild animals become more relaxed due to evolutionB. animals' reactions to humans vary from species to speciesC. smaller animals tend to be in harmony with natural predatorsD. the presence of humans reduces their awareness of potential danger(4) What might be the best title for the text?A. Ecotourism Can Put Wild Animals at RiskB. Ecotourism Has Become A Popular TrendC. Wildlife's Reactions to Human ActivitiesD. Latest Research Findings on Ecotourism二、七选五（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）4、【来源】 2020年浙江绍兴高三一模第31~35题10分(每题2分)Every year, students across the U.K. engage in the annual ritual （仪式） of telling college and university admissions officers why they deserve a seat at the school of their choice. However, this task is filled with anxiety and fear.1This, of course, leads many to ask the question: How should I write an essay about myself for college? Here are tips to keep in mind.2For example, if all your friends are writing application essays about COVID-19, that may be a good reason why you should avoid it. Unless, of course, you've had a vivid, life-changing experience that you are burning to share. Admissions counselors say that the best essays help them learn something about the candidate that they would never know from reading the rest of the application.Keep your individuality in the spotlight.3What sets you apart from others? Tell your extraordinary story but remember not to oversell yourself. Your reader wants to see something personal about you, something that makes you stand out among others. Imagine how many applications the admissions committee reads per day, and think twice before writing some general information that doesn't show your individuality.Committees value authenticity, They want to hear your voice, This essay may give you the time and space to explain why a particular achievement means too much to you. But resist the urge to exaggerate: admission counselors read thousands of essays each year.4Sound like yourself. Don't use words you wouldn't normally use. Don't use fancy language you wouldn't use in real life. Imagine yourself reading this essay out loud to a classroom full of people who have never met you.5Be on the lookout for words and phrases like 'maybe' 'sort of' 'I think' or anything else.A. They can spot something unreal.B. This rule works in all the aspects of your life.C. Writing about oneself can be highly stressful.D. Keep a confident tone even if you're not feeling that way.E. Remember, it's all about you rather than a fashionable subject.F. An informative and powerful essay focuses on the readers' needs.G. Experts often recommend looking for something unique of your life story.三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分）5、【来源】 2020年浙江绍兴高三一模第36~55题30分(每题1.5分)The roles we often expect our fathers to play, protector or provider, can make them seem unapproachable.

Similar changes in behavior have been observed in polar bears and yellow-eyed penguins in areas visited by ecotourists are producing smaller babies. Conservationists are now calling for more research into the effect of ecotourism on animals and say the industry must be developed carefully. They also want studies done before new ecotourism projects are started.“The animals’ welfare should be very important because without them there will be no ecotourism,” said Rochelle Constantine of the University ofAuckland in New Zealand.56. What's the text mainly about?A. Many animals are dying because of lack of money.B. There will be no ecotourism without animals.C. Ecotourism could endanger the survival of the wildlife people want to see.D. More research should be done on ecotourism.57. We may learn from the text that __A. ecotourism must be developed properlyB. polar bears are losing weight without enough foodC. all the poor countries have stopped ecotourismD. money produced through ecotourism should be spent on wildlife58. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?A. Many animals do not react well in their backyard..B. Polar bears in areas visited by ecotourists are producing smaller babies.C. Ecotourism has been growing at about 10--30 percent a year.D. Studies should be done before new ecotourism projects are started.59. What Rochelle Constantine said in the last paragraph implies that __A. if people want to get high income, they must develop ecotourismB. animals have rights to live their own lifeC. animals are people’s good friendsD. people should take good care of wildlifeBBird flu(禽流感) has puzzled scientists by striking millions of chickens in several Asian countries within a very short period of time, with the worst hit areas in Thailand, China and Viet Nam and by February 10,2020 at least 13 people were reported to have died.The following is a chronology of the most recent bird flu outbreak in Asia, which also suffered outbreaks in 1997 and 1998:Dec. 15, 2020 -- South Korea confirms a highly contagious ( 传染的 ) type of bird flu on a chicken farm near the capital, Seoul, and begins a mass killing of poultry.(家禽) when the virus rapidly spreads across the country. Dec. 31, 2020 -- Taiwan reports its first case of the virus. It later destroys thousands of chickens suffering from a milder form of bird flu.Jan. 8, 2020 -- Viet Nam confirms that bird flu has been found on many of its poultry farms.Jan. 11, 2020 -- Japan says 6,000 chickens have died of bird flu on a farm, and says it is the first time the disease has been confirmed in the country. Jan. 13, 2020 -- The World Health Organization (WHO) confirms that the deaths of three people in Viet Nam are linked to bird flu.Jan. 23, 2020 -- Cambodia confirms an outbreak of bird flu on a farm on the outskirts of Phnom Penh.Jan. 25, 2020 -- Indonesia discovers an outbreak of bird flu among chickens but has no evidence that the disease has spread to humans. Pakistan says 2 million chickens have died of a mild form of bird flu.Jan. 26, 2020 -- Thailand confirms the death of a six-year-old boy, its first human death from bird flu.Jan. 27, 2020 -- The bird flu virus kills ducks in southern parts of China, which begins a killing of 14,000 brids to stop the spread. The agriculture ministry in Laos confirms bird flu in the area around Vientiane(万象). Jan. 30, 2020 -- China says tests confirm the H5NI virus in Hubei and Hunan provinces as well as the southern region of Guangxi.Feb. 1, 2020-- China's state television reports five more areas with suspected( 可疑的) cases of bird flu in poultry. The WHO says two sistershave died in Viet Nam after contracting bird flu and they may have caught the virus from their brother, who had also died.Feb. 2, 2020 -- An 18-year-ohl person dies of bird flu in Ho Chi Minh City, bringing to nine fatalities( 死亡事件) in Viet Nam. A Thai woman dies of bird flu, taking that country's toll from the virus to three. The total number of fatalities stands at 12.60. In how many countries and regions in Asia has bird flu broken out by Feb. 2,20207A. 8.B. 9.C. 10.D. 11.61. What does the underlined word "chronology" probably mean?A. A list of events in the order in which they happen.B. A list of dates.C. All kinds of bird flu.D. A list of countries where bird flu has broken out.62. Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?A. Three people died of bird flu in Thailand.B. Nine people died of bird flu in Viet Nam.C. Tests confirm the H5N1 virus in eight areas in China.D. Japan says it's the first time bird flu has broken out in the country.63. What would be the best title for the passage'?A. Millions of chickens killed in AsiaB. Many people dying of bird flu in AsiaC. Scientists finding out the cause of bird fluD. Bird flu spreading in AsiaCSweden's pop phenomenon, which started with ABBA in the seventies, has exploded into a large industry ranging from CD sales to concert tours. Buthomegrown bands and CD makers are only a part of the success. World stars are beating a path to Sweden's music producers whose studios and songwriters lie behind many an American and British success.Denis Pop--- one of the greatest Swedish pop producers --- put Sweden on the map, writing and producing hit after hit for stars as the Backstreet Boys, Boll Jovi and Britney Spears. French-Canadian Celine Dion, American Boyband 98 Degrees and American singer Jennifel Lopez turn to Sweden for songs composed by music writer and producer Arnthor Birgison.All this has made Sweden the world's third biggest exporter of music But how did Sweden manage to spread its sound all over the globe?Birgison, 25, believes the traditional Swedish approach to hard work and an unfriendly climate are key to the music sensation (轰动). Besides, Swedes are also very good at speaking English, which is very. important, because very little music sung in other languages succeeds anywhere outside its home country. Another piece in the puzzle is that Swedish children at an early stage get to try out musical instruments and learn music theory in school, at little cost to their parents.64. We can learn from the above passage that ______ .A. Sweden exports the largest amount of music to the outside worldB. Swedish musical training theory is puzzling to kids of early agesC. Swedish musicians have made great contribution to world musicD. most of the western singers' success bases on the work of the Swedish artists65. What does "ABBA' in the opening paragraph most probably refer to?A.a music group.B. A successful industrialist.C. A CD maker.D. A music producer.66. Which of the following leads to the success of Swedish music andmusicians?A. The artists' hard work.B. Poor weather conditions.C. The musical training system.D. All of the above.67. If the Swedish musical artists couldn't speak good English,____.A. they wouldn't be able to learn the up-to-date music theoriesB. the Swedish music wouldn't have been so internationally successfulC. they would have difficulty in communicating with foreign singersD. they wouldn't have children start to learn music at an early ageDAcross the globe, single parent homes are on the rise. In the US, the 2000 census (人口普查) showed 24.8 million, or nearly 24 percent of the nation's 105.5 million households, were traditional two-parent homes. By comparison, 9.8 million households, or 9 percent of all US households were headed by an adult raising a child alone. The 1990 census showed 26 percent of homes were led by a married mother and father, and 8 percent of homes were led by a single parent.Similar increases occurred in other countries. In the UK, lone-parent homes increased from 3.3 percent in 1990 to 5.5 percent in 1999. Single parent households in Australia rose from 5.8 percent in 1990 to 7.6 percent in 1999. Belgium saw the increase from 1.8 percent lo 2.7 percent during the same period of time. These countries tend to have greater acceptance of the single parent because there are fewer nearby family members to disapprove, Riche, a Census Bureau director, said.Just as in the US, those changes raised new questions about how involved government should be. in helping single parent families. Some research suggests children raised in two-parent families are better off than those who depend on one. "The position of one-parent families in any country isvery much a gender (性别 ) issue -- women's opportunities, especially working-class women on low income," said Sue Cohen, coordinator ( 协调员) of the Single Action Parents Network in England~68. Not considering the exact number of the single-parent families, whichcountry saw the fastest rise rate in 1999, compared with 19907A. UK.B. AustraliaC. America.D. Belgium.69. What is the cause of the rise of single parent families across the globe?A. The nearby family members have a favourable opinion.B. A lone parent is well off enough lo support his/her childrenC. A lot of problems have arisen in two-parent families.D. We cannot get enough proving information from the text.70. Which of the following is TRUE about the increase of single parentfamilies according to the passage?A. It will somewhat limit the growing population of younger generation.B. Governments should take actions about the social problems brought about by it.C. Single parent families are not looked down upon in any country mentioned here.D. Generally speaking, the single parents needn't worry since they are. highly paid.71. Which of the following diagrams correctly shows the rise of single parentfamilies in the US from 1990 to 2000?EMichael, a normal American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal computer terminal in order to connect with the office. After work he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder or plays baseball on the computer. On many days, Michael doesn't talk to any other human beings, and he doesn't see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his life style is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from communicating with our fellow human beings.The world of business is one area in which technology is separating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access (通路) to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their job at display terminals in their own homes. They would never have to actually see the people they're dealing with. Also, the way employees are paid will change. Workers' salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks. Personal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machinesto put in or take out money from their accounts.Another area in which technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for instance, was once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For many people now, however, music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home.Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.72. The underlined sentence, in the first paragraph means "______".A. Michael is a person full of imagination and he can make his dreams come trueB. Michael is not a real person but the life style does existC. Michael has ambitions but he can't make his dreams come trueD. Michael is a person full of imagination and his life style is common nowadays73. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Clerks will be able to work at home.B. One can play baseball on the computer.C. One can listen to music without disturbing others.D. One can borrow books from libraries at home.74. What does the author discuss in the last paragraph ?A. Technology is changing ways of entertainment.B. How to see a movie at home.C. People will never go to the concert in the future.D. How to borrow videotapes at home.75. What is the main idea of the passage?A.We may no longer need to communicate with other human beings.B.Modern technology seems to be separating human beings.C.We may no longer need to work in the office.D.Modern technology makes it possible for us to work at home.第三部分：写作第－节：单词拼写1.

AMy First Day of SchoolFear started taking over, I was walking into my first school in America. I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been for three years, hoping America would help my future. My father decided that I would be better off going to school here, so I enrolled(登记)in the local high school in my new town.I was afraid how I would do. On the first day, I went to my second period class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered. “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector. In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology we had. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke.It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s still fourth period.”“But the bell just rang,” I said.Changing from a gentle tone to a harsher(刺耳的)one, she said, “That is the lunch bell, young man.”I apologized. Without another word I headed for the cafeteria. I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I spotted my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t o bad.21.

However, there were also the bright news that confirmed the goodness of mankind. As a journalist, I wrote many human interesting stories during my career. That's why the story about the guys in the bakery caught my eyes.When the staff at a Mexican bakery chain in Houston were trapped inside the building for two days, they didn't sit there feeling sorry for themselves. They used their time wisely after flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey. While they were waiting for the eventual rescue that came on Monday morning, four decided to make as many loaves of bread as possible for their community.The flood water rose in the street outside. They took advantage of their emergency power supply tobake bread. They used more than 4,200 pounds of flour to create hundreds of loaves and sheets of sweet bread. Although the water kept rising, they continued baking to help more people. By the time the owner managed to get to them, they had made so much bread that we took the loaves to loads of emergency centers across the city for people affected by the floods.The store manager, Brian Alvarado, told The Independent，“Whenever a disaster occurs, nobody should just feel _forlorn_. Instead，we should take positive action to save ourselves and help others. Our acts of kindness will make a big difference.”24. What did the bakery store workers do after flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey?A. They volunteered to make bread for their community.B. They managed to live by selling more bread in the store.C.

Alvarado organized his workers to bake much bread.B. Hurricane Harvey caused a power failure in Houston.C. The staff in the bakery sent enough flour to emergency centers.D. The author preferred to write stories about people facing disasters.27. What can be the best title for the text?A. A Popular Mexican Bakery Chain in HoustonB. Wait for the Eventual Rescue in a Big DisasterC. All Kinds of Disasters Caused by Hurricane Harvey in HoustonD. Bake Bread to Make a Difference in Face of Hurricane HarveyCJohn George, 60, remembers that he lived a wonderful life in the Detroit neighborhood where he grew up. “We knew all our neighbors.” George told Detroit's Metro Times. “On Christmas Eve, we'd all go to midnight Mass, and there'd be 300 people in our house at one o’clock to about five in the morning. The folks were just really good, hardworking people. ”By the'80s, however, the old neighborhood changed. Due in part to economic downturns and drug abuse, well -kept homes had been abandoned and kindly neighbors had fled to the suburbs(郊区). But not George. “Living in any city, it’s like being in a relationship,” he told Reader’s Digest. “Some days are better than others. But it was my home. And when I saw it becoming worse, I had two choices: I could leave, or I could stay and fight. I chose the latter.”When the abandoned home behind his turned into a worn-out place, the father of two grabbed some boards and nails and began boarding up the house. After two neighbors stopped to ask what he was doing, they decided to help, with great results.That's how it all got started. In the 30 years since that first home rescue, an army of approximately 182,000 volunteers, along with private donors, has helped George pull down around 300 abandoned homes, mainly in die poorer Northwest area of Detroit. They've also secured 400 - some homes by boarding them up. They've painted and repaired nearly 900 homes and built over 100 from scratch. According to Forbes, more than 1,000 Detroiters have been housed as a result of their work.And there's Halloween. In Detroit, October 30 was known as Devil's Night, a period when all hell break loose in the form of crime and vandalism (破坏公物). In response, George created a citizens'patrol(巡逻)that would take to the streets, keeping an eye on illegal behavior. He named it Angels' Night What began with 12 neighbors on patrol in 1990 has grown to more than 60,000 citywide.George's inspired ideas have not gone unnoticed by the city he loves. Others are buying into it. There'sa trend of younger homeowners coming in.28. What was George’s home city Detroit like before the ’80s?A. Neighbors were nice and got along very well.B. People in the suburbs led a wonderful life.C. Economy declined because of drug abuse.D. Many homes were abandoned and people lied.29. What did George decide to do after his neighborhood changed?A. Move to the suburbs.B. Leave his hometown.C. Join his neighbors to help.D. Stay and fight to save his city.30. What happened as a result of George and other volunteers' hard work?A. More people moved into Detroit.B. Almost all Detroiters were housed.C. Over 100 homes were newly built.D. There was no illegal behavior any more.31. What does the story mainly intend to toll us?A. Great minds think alike.B. Two heads are better than one.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. Little people can make a big difference.DBoth honeybees and ants are social insects that live in groups called colonies. They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist of Stanford University, says, “Ants aren’t smart. Ant colonies are.” The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communication systems, and both have the capacity of learning.Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees send message to each other by means of a “dance”. Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new hoe for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance the better the new location is.Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of “sameness” and “difference” to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent America research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants. They observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate complexactions and accomplish crucial survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.32. What do ants and bees have in common?A. They make use of collective intelligence.B. They live in similar-sized colonies.C. They have small leadership groups that make all decisions.D. They use the same method to communicate with each other.33. What docs the speed of a bee’s dance indicate?A. The distance to a neighboring colony.B. The quality of a new colony location.C. The discovery of a new food source.D. The direction to a potential food source.34. In paragraph 3, how docs the author demonstrate the idea that Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning?A. By using statistics.B. By explaining reason.C. By presenting study findings.D. By stating opinions.35. What does the un derlined part “foraging skills” refer to in the third Paragraph?A. The skills of communicating.B. The skills of sacking food.C. The skills of leaning.D. The skills of finding a new home.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。

My son, Eric, had just brought home a disappointing report card, and my daughter, Shannon, and I had argued again about her getting a driver's license. For the next eight hours I wanted to throw myself into helping people who I knew had much more to worry about than I did. Rebekah mother of three lovely little girls,was only 32, admitted for chemotherapy after breast-cancer surgery, When I gave her an in injection, Rebekah shut her eys tightely and murmured a prayer until it was over. Then she smiled and squeezed my hand. ―Before you go, could you get my Bible from the table?" I handed her the worn book. "Do you have a favorite Bible verse?" she asked. "Jesus wept. John 11: 35." "Such a sad one," she said. "Why?""It makes me feel closer to Jesus, knowing he also experienced human sorrow." Rebekah nodded thoughtfully and started flipping through her Bible as I shut the door quietly behind me.During the following months, her hospital stays became frequent and she worried about her children. One day when I entered her room, I found her talking into a tape recorder. She picked up a notebook and held it out to me. "I'm making a tape for my daughters, " she said. I read the list on her pad: starting school, confirmation, turning 16, first date, graduation. While I worried how to help her deal with death, she was planning for her children's future. She usually waited until the early hours of the morning to record the tapes so she could be free from interruptions. She filled them with family stories and advice，trying to cram a lifetime of love into a few precious hours. Finally, every item in her notes had been checked off and she entrusted the tapes to her husband.I often wondered what I would say in her place. My kids joked that I was like an FBI agent,with my constant questions about where they’d been and who they’d been with. Where, I thought, are my words of encouragement and love?It was three o'clock one afternoon when I got an urgent call from the hospital. Rebekah wanted me to come immediately with a blank tape. She was breathing hard when I entered her room. I slipped the tape into the recorder and held the microphone to her lips. "Ruthie, Hannah, Molly, this is the most important tape." She held my hand and closed her eyes. "Someday your daddy will bring home a new mommy. Please make her feel special. Show her how to take care of you. Ruthie, honey, help her get your Brownie uniform ready each Tuesday. Hannah, tell her you don't want meat sauce on your spaghetti. Molly, don't get mad if there's no apple juice. Drink something else. It's okay to be sad, sweeties. Jesus cried too. He knows about sadness and will help you to be happy again. Remember, I'll always love you. I shut off the recorder and Rebekah sighed deeply. "Thank you, Nan, "Y ou'll give this one to them, won't you?" she murmured as she slid into sleep.A time would come when the tape would be played for Rebekah's children, but right then, after I smoothed Rebekah's blanket, I got in my car and hurried home. I thought of how my Shannon also liked her sauce on the side and suddenly that quirk, which had annoyed me so many times, seemed to make her so much more precious. That night the kids didn't go out; they sat with me long after the spaghetti sauce had dried onto the dishes. And we talked ，without interrogations, without complaints，late into the night.46．From the first paragraph we can learn that .A．Nan was in a bad state and wept a lot in her daily life.B．Nan was not on good terms with her children.C．Nan was worried about how to help Rebeka deal with her death.D．Nan laid more stress on attending on her patients than her children.47．Which of the following scenes was most likely to be seen at Nan’s home before she met Rebekah?A．The family sat down in a circle and shared an interesting story.B．After dinner, the children either went out or shut themselves up in their rooms.C．The son was the headache of the parents while the daughter their comfort.D．When Eric did poorly at school, the parents comforted him and cheered him up. 48．Which was the most vital message Rebekah left to her children?A．Bringing home satisfying school report cards B．Landing a job after graduationC．Growing up healthily and happily D．Accepting their step-mother into their lives. 49．It can be conclude4d from the passage that Rebekah was .A．generous and loving B．religious and considerateC．selfish and pessimistic D．optimistic and innocent50．The writer learnt from Rebekah that a parent’s real concern should be.A．protecting the children from the dangers they may be trapped in.B．having encouraging and loving talks with children.C．making tape records to guide the children in their future lives.D．tolerating the children’s annoying quirks.BEaster Sunday celebrationsEaster Sunday brunchFun Easter festivities are planned for Sunday at Kempinski Hotel Shenzhen.

The phenomenon, he said, is like pulling on a rope to ring a bell in the brain. It is hard to overstate how deeply fixed this account has become. In medicine, doctors see pain in Descartes’ terms-as a physical process, a sing of tissue injury.The limitations of this explanation, however, have been apparent for some time, since people with obvious injuries sometimes report feeling no pain at all. Later, researchers proposed that Descartes’ model be replaced with what they called the gate control theory of pain. They argued that before pain signals reach the brain, they must first go through a gating mechanism in the spinal cord（脊髓）. In some cases, this imaginary gate could simply step gain signals from getting to the brain.Their most amazing suggestion was that what controlled the gate was not just signals from sensory nerves but also emotions and other ―output‖ from the brain. They were saying that pulling on the rope need not make the bell ring. The bell itself-the mind-could stop it. This theory led to a great deal of research into how such factors as mood, gender, and beliefs influence the experience of pain. In a British study, for example, researchers measured pain threshold and tolerance levels in 53 ballet dancers and 53 university students by using a common measurement: after immersing your hand in body-temperature water for two mintues to establish a baseline condition, you put your hand in a bowl of ice water and start a clock running. Y ou mark the time when it begins to hurt: that is your pain threshold. Then you mark the time when it hurts too much to keep your hand in the water: that is your pain tolerance. The test is always stopped at 120 seconds, to prevent injury.The results were striking. On average female students reported pain at 16 seconds and pulled their hands out of the ice water at 37 seconds. Female dancers were almost three times as long on both counts. Men in both groups had a higher threshold and tolerance for pain, but the difference between mals dancers and mals nondancers was nearly as large. What explains that difference? Probably it has something to do with the psychology of ballet dancers –a group known forself-discipline, physical fitness, and competitiveness, as well as by a high rate of chronic（慢性）injury. Their driven personalities and competitive culture evidently accustom them to pain. Other studies along these lines have shown that outgoing people have greater pain tolerance and that, with training, one can reduce one’s sensitivity to pain.There is also striking evidence that very simple kinds of mental suggestion can have powerful effects on pain. In one study of 500 patients undergoing dental procedures, those who were given a placebo injection and promised that it would relieve their pain had the least discomfort-not only less than the patients who got a placebo and were told nothing but also less than the patients who got actual drug without any promise that it would work.Today it is abundantly evident that the brain is actively involved in the experience of pain and is no more bell on a string. Today every medical textbook teaches the gate control theory as fact. There’s a problem with it, though. It explains people who have injuries but feel no pain, but it doesn’t explain the reverse, w hich is far more common-the millions of people who experience chronic pain, such as back pain, with no signs of injury whatsoever. So where does the pain come from? The rope and clapper are gone, but the bell is still ringing.55．The primary purpose of the passage is to .A．describe how modern research has updated an old explanation.B．support a traditional view with new data.C．promote a particular attitude towards physical experience.D．suggest a creative treatment for a medical condition.56．Which statement best describes Descartes theory of pain presented in paragraph 1?A．The brain can shut pain off at will.B．The brain plays no part in the body’s experience of pain.C．Pain can be caused in many different ways.D．Pain is an automatic response to bodily injury.57．The author implies that the reason why the gate control was ―amazing‖ was that it A．offered an extremely new and original explanation.B．was just opposite to people’s everyday experiences.C．was grounded in an ridiculous logic.D．was so sensible it should have been proposed centuries before.58．The author refers to ―chronic back pain‖ as an example of something that is A．costly, because it troubles millions of people.B．puzzling, because it sometimes has no obvious cause.C．disappointing, because it does not improve with treatment.D．worrying, because it lies beyond the reach of medicine.59．The last sentence of the passage serves mainly to express thatA．scientific judgments are difficult to understand.B．theoretical investigations are generally useless.C．researchers still have a long way to go before the puzzle is made clear.D．there is always something puzzling at the heart of science.D―My work is done.‖ Those word s were some of the last penned by George Eastman. He included them in his suicide note. They mark an ignoble end to a noble life, the leave taking of a truly great man. The same words could now be said for the company he left behind. Actually, theEastman Kodak Company is through. It has been mismanaged financially, technologically and competitively. For 20 years, its leaders have foolishly spent down the patrimony of a century’s prosperity. One of America’s bedrock brands is about to disappear, the Kodak m oment has passed.But George Eastman is not how he died, and the Eastman Kodak Company is not how it is being killed. Though the ends be needless and premature, they must not be allowed to overshadow the greatness that came before. Few companies have done so much good for so many people, or defined and lifted so profoundly the spirit of a nation and perhaps the world. It is impossible to understand the 20th Century without recognizing the role of the Eastman Kodak Company.Kodak served mankind through entertainment, science, national defense and the stockpiling of family memories. Kodak took us to the top of Mount Suribachi and to the Sea of Tranquility. It introduced us to the merry old Land of Oz and to stars from Charlie Chaplin to John Wayne, and Elizabeth Taylor to Tom Hanks. It showed us the shot that killed President Kennedy, and his brother bleeding out on a kitchen floor, and a fallen Martin Luther King Jr. on the hard balcony of a Memphis motel. When that sailor kissed the nurse, and when the spy planes saw missiles in Cuba, Kodak was the eyes of a nation. From the deck of the Missouri to the grandeur of Monument V alley, Kodak took us there. Virtually every significant image of the 20th Century is a gift to posterity from the Eastman Kodak Company.In an era of easy digital photography, when we can take a picture of anything at any time, we cannot imagine what life was like before George Eastman brought photography to people. Y es, there were photographers, and for relatively large sums of money they would take stilted pictures in studios and formal settings. But most people couldn’t afford photographs, and so all they had to remember distant loved ones, or earlier times of their lives, was memory. Children could not know what their parents had looked like as young people, grandparents far away might never learn what their grandchildren looked like. Eastman Kodak allowed memory to move from the uncertainty of recollection, to the permanence of a photograph. But it wasn’t just people whose features wer e savable; it was events, the sacred and precious times that families cherish. The Kodak moment, was humanity’s moment.And it wasn’t just people whose features were savable; it was events, the precious times that familes cherish. Kodak let the fleeting moments of birthdays and weddings, picnics and parties, be preserved and saved. It allowed for the creation of the most egalitarian art form. Lovers could take one another’s pictures, children were photographed walking out the door on the first day of school, the person releasing the shutter decided what was worth recording, and hundreds of millions of such decisions were made. And for centuries to come, those long dead will smile and dance and communicate to their unborn progeny. Family history will be not only names on paper, but smiles on faces.The cash flow not just provided thousands of people with job, but also allowed the company’s founder to engage in some of the most generous philanthropy in America’s history. Not just in Kodak’s home city of Roch ester, New Y ork, but in Tuskegee and London, and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He bankrolled two historically black colleges, fixed the teeth of Europe’s poor, and quietly did good wherever he could. While doing good, Kodak did very well. Over all the years, all the Kodakers over all the years are essential parts of that monumental legacy. They prospered a great company, but they – with that company – blessed the world.That is what we should remember about the Eastman Kodak Company.Like its founder, we should remember how it lived, not how it died.History will forget the small men who have scuttled this company.But history will never forget Kodak.60．According to the passage, which of the following is to blame for the fall of Kodak?A．The invention of easy digital photography B．The poor management of the company C．The early death of George Eastman D．The quick rise of its business competitors 61．It can be learnt from the passage that George Eastman .A．died a natural death of old age.B．happened to be on the spot when President Kennedy was shot dead.C.set up his company in the capital of the US before setting up its branches all over theworld.D．was not only interested in commercial profits, but also in the improvement of other people’s lives.62．Before George Eastman brought photography to people, .A．no photos has ever been taken of people or eventsB．photos were very expensive and mostly taken indoorsC．painting was the only way for people to keep a record of their ancestors.D．grandparents never knew what their grandchildren looked like.63．The person releasing the shutter (Paragraph 5) was the one .A．who took the photographB．who wanted to have a photo takenC．whose decisions shaped the Eastman Kodak CompanyD．whose smiles could long be seen by their children64．What is the writer’s attitude towards the Eastman Kodak Company?A．Disapproving B．Respectful C．Regretful D．Critical65．Which do you think is the best title for the passage?A．Great Contributions of Kodak B．Unforgettable moments of KodakC．Kodak Is Dead D．History of Eastman Kodak Company第二节：虎妈，美国耶鲁大学的华裔教授蔡美儿Amy Lynn Chua，出版了一本名叫《虎妈战歌》Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother的书，在美国引起轰动。

Police and the FBI are investigating a possible lead into the 33-year-old case of Etan Patz, the first missing child to appear on the side of a milk box.The child disappeared on the way to school on the morning of May 25, 1979. It was the first time he was allowed to walk the two blocks to the bus stop alone.A tip seemed to have led officials to the basement of a building on the corner of Prince and Wooster streets, about a block and a half from where Etan had lived with his family.The name Etan Patz has become a hot topic on Twitter as people weigh in on the case. Shirley Brady noted: “As mom to a 6 years old in Soho, it’s still held out by locals as cautionary tale (警示故事).” Another wrote, “Boy who disappeared on his way to school in 1979 has been REOPENED! Crazy.” One wondered, “Why is FBI and NYPD searching for a kid that disappeared in 1979?”Good question. This is a case that Stuart Gra Bois, as an assistant U.S. lawyer under Rudolph Giuliani, followed for years. It became the most famous missing-person case in New York City, turned a nationwide spotlight on missing children, and created headlines around the globe. No one was ever stated guilty of the crime.The cas e led to the creation of National Missing Children’s Day, marked on May 25, the day the blond-haired, blue-eyed child went missing.The case has even pointed to a suspect, charged with child molester (猥亵者) Julio Antonio Ramos, who is currently in prison. Patz’s babysitter had been dating the man, and Ramos did know the kid, but has denied taking him away.New evidence in the case suggests another suspect who lived in the apartment at the time: a local handyman named Othniel Miller, who gave Etan $1 for helping him the night before the disappearance.The man’s name had come up in an earlier investigation, but he was a friend of the Patz family, and the NYPD did not follow the lead.Investigators plan to be at the site, 127 B Prince St., which is now a Lucky Brand jeans store, for the next two to three days to search for human remains. The Associated Press reports that the excavation (挖掘) has been the result of a recently ordered review of the case by Manhattan’s police.41. We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ________.A. The 6-year-old missing boy was found by the side of a milk boxB. Police and the FBI have not been following the case of Etan Patz for 33 yearsC. The investigation into the disappearance of boy has worked fruitlessly for decadesD. Etan Patz went missing from the Soho area of New York city in 1979 and diedin 200142. What does the underlined phrase “weigh in on the case” mean?A. ignore the caseB. feel stressed on the caseC. reopen the caseD. begin to discuss the case43. What was a possible cause of reopening the case of Etan Patz？A. Local lawyers strongly demanded the reopening of the case.B. The Associated Press reported the result of the review of the case.C. New evidence appeared which led officials to the basement of a building.D. Local people realized the importance of the case without criminal being charged.44. Which of the following statements is true in the text?A. The National Missing Children’s Day was created on May 25, 1979.B. The search for human remains will be carried out at 127 B Prince Street.C. The NYPD didn’t follow the lead of Julio Antonio for he had been dating Patz’babysitter.D. Othniel Miller, a local handyman assisted Etan and gave him $1 before the disappearance.45. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. People air the same view about the case on the InternetB. People reject the reopening of the case of the missing boyC. The missing-person case still has a long-lasting influence on peopleD. Twitter is the only place for people to discuss about missing-person casesBGeneric Name: ASPIRINPronunciation: ['æspərin]Why it is prescribed (开药方)：1.Aspirin relieves mild to moderate pain.2.It reduces fever, redness, and swelling.3.It prevents blood from clotting (凝结).When it is to be taken:1.Aspirin is often taken without a prescription.2.Follow the instructions on the label and package.3.If your doctor prescribes aspirin for you, you will receive specific instructionsfor how often you should take it.4.Keep in touch with your doctor.How it should be taken:1.Aspirin comes in the form of suppositories (栓剂), capsules, and regular, coated,extended-release, and chewable tablets.2.Regular, coated, and extended-release aspirin tablets and capsules should beswallowed with a full glass of water or milk after meals to avoid stomach upset.3.Chewable aspirin tablets may be chewed, crushed, dissolved in a liquid, orswallowed whole; a full glass of water, milk, or fruit juice should be drunk immediately after taking these tablets.Special Instruction:1.Children should not take aspirin for fevers associated with flu or chickenpox(水痘) because such use has been linked with a serious illness known as Reye’s syndrome.2.Adults should not take aspirin for pain for more than 10 days (five days forchildren) without consulting a doctor.3.Aspirin should not be taken by adults or children for high fever, fever lastinglonger than three days without a doctor’s supervision (监管).4.Do not give more than five doses (剂量) to a child in a 24-hour period unlessdirected to do so by a doctor.5.If you miss a dose, take the missed dose as soon as you remember it and resumethe prescribed schedule.Side Effects:1.Although side effects from aspirin are not common, they can occur.2.Nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, indigestion and heartburn are common.

In a research paper.B. In the package of a medicineC. In a medical textbook.D. In a scientific and technological magazineCThe practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的)skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换) “those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,”the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye”helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot(发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”51. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?A. The absence of blackboard in classroom.B. The use of new technologies inteaching.C. The lack of practice in handwriting.D. The popular use of smartphones.52. Berninger’s study published in 2009 ___________.A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.D. discussed the importance of writing speed.53. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.54. What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Window.B. SoulC. Picture.D. Imagination.55. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.DMy grandson, Daniel, and I have always bee n very close. When Daniel’s father remarried after a divorce, Daniel, who was eleven, and his little sister, Kristie, came to live with us. My husband and I were more than happy to have kids in the house again.Things were going along just fine until the diabetes (糖尿病) I’ve lived with most of my adult life started affecting my eyes, and then more seriously, my kidneys (肾). Then everything seemed to fall apart.Three times a week, I had to go to the hospital to be hooked up to a dialysis machine (透析机). I was living, but I couldn’t really call it a life --- it was an existence. I had no energy. I dragged myself through daily chores and slept as much as I could. My sense of humor seemed to disappear.Daniel, seventeen by then, was really affected by the change in me. He tried as hard as he could to make me laugh, to bring back the grandma who loved to clown around (开玩笑) with him. Even in my sorry state, Daniel could still bring a smile to my face.But things were not improving. After a year on dialysis, my condition was deteriorating (恶化) and the doctors felt that if I didn’t receive a kidney transplant within six months, I would surely die. No one told Daniel this, but he knew --- he said all he had to do was look after me. To top it off, as my condition worsened, there was a chance that I would become too weak to have the transplant surgery at all, and then there would be nothing they could do for me. So we started the tense and desperate wait for a kidney.I was adamant (坚决的) that I didn’t want a kidney from anyone I knew. I would wait until an appropriate kidney became available, or I would literally die waiting. But Daniel had other plans. The time that he took me to my dialysis appointments, he did a little secret research on his own. Then he announced his intention to me.“Grandma, I’m giving you one of my kidneys. I’m young and I’m healthy …” He paused. He could see I wasn’t at all happy with his offer. He continued, almost in whisper, “And most of all, I couldn’t stand it if you weren’t around.” His face wore an expression of appeal mixed with determination. He can be as stubborn as a mule (驴) once he decides on something --- but I’ve been told many times that I can out-stubborn any mule!We argued. I couldn’t let him do it. We both knew that if he gave up his kidney, he would also give up his life’s dream; to play football. It was all he ever talked about. And he was good, too. Daniel was co-captain and star defensive tackle (防守阻截队员) of his high school team; he expected to apply for a football scholarship and was looking forward to playing college football. He just loved the sport.“How can I let you throw away the thing that means the most to you?” I pleaded with him.“Grandma,” he said softly, “compared to your life, foo tball means nothing to me.”After that, I couldn’t argue anymore. So we agreed to see if he was a good donor (捐赠者) match, and then we’d discuss it further. When the tests came back, they showed Daniel was a perfect match. That was it. I knew I wasn’t going to win that argument, so we scheduled the transplant.Both surgeries went smoothly. As soon as I came out of the anesthesia (麻醉) , I could tell things were different. I felt great! The nurses in the intensive care unit had to keep telling me to lie back and be quiet --- I wasn’t supposed to be that lively! I was afraid to go to sleep, for fear I would break the spell (魔法) and wake up the way I had been before. But the good feeling didn’t go away, and I spent the evening joking and laughing with anyone who would listen. It was so wonderful to feel alive again.The next day they moved me out of ICU and onto the floor where Daniel was recuperating (复原) three doors away. His grandfather helped him walk down to see me as soon as I was moved into my room. When we saw each other, we did not know what to say. Holding hands, we just sat there and looked at each other for a long time, overwhelmed by the deep feeling of love that connected us.Finally, he spoke, “Was it worthwhile, grandma?”I laughed a little ruefully (懊悔). “It was for me!

When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to fred a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship (奖学金) and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, "Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story", shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22,year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herseff into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets. "What drove me to live on had something to dowith understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only. experienced a small part of the society." She wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe riving environment, to encourage herself that "next to nothing could hold me down". She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. "I love my parents so much. They are drag addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time."Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is "as simple as making a decision".46. In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a.Her mother died of A/DS.b. She worked at a petrol station..c. She got admitted into Harvard.d. The movie about her life was put on.e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.A. b, a, e, c, dB. a,b, c, e, dC. e, d, b, a, cD.b, e, a, d, c47. The main idea of the passage isA.how Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityB.what a hard time Liz had in her childhoodC. why Liz loved her parents so muchD. how Liz struggled to change her life48. What actually made her go towards her goal?A. Envy and encouragement.B. Willpower and determination.C. Decisions and understanding.D. Love and respect for her parents.49. When she wrote "What drove me to live on...I had only experienced a small part of thesociety", she meant thatA. she had little experience of social lifeB. she eould hardly understand the societyC. she would do something for her own lifeD. she needed to travel more around the worldBDo you have any strong opinion on co-educational or single-sex schools?A supporter of co-educational schools would probably say that schools should be like the societies they belong to. In Hong Kong, men and women mix socially on a day-to-day basis. In many fields men are even likely to have female bosses. It is, therefore, desirable that boys and girls grow up together, go to school together, and prepare themselves for a society that does not value sexual separation.Some would go on to argue further that growing up with members of the opposite sex is important for personal development. Regular contact can remove the strange ideas about the opposite sex and lead to more natural relationships. Single-sex conditions are seen as leading to more extreme opinions, and possibly even as encouraging homosexuality〔同性恋〕, though there is no proof that this is the case.Those who are against co-education often also fix their attention on the sexual side. Some parents fear that close contact with members of the opposite sex is dangerous for teenagers. They want their children to be attentive to their studies. Such parents feel un- comfortable with modern ways and the free mixing of the sexes.A stronger argument comes from research into school results. Girls grow up earlier than boys. tend to be more orderly and are likely to be better at languages. In a mixed class, boys who might do well in a single-sex class become discouraged and take on the role of troublemaker. Certainlyin the UK this situation has greatly alarmed〔惊动〕the government for it to be encouragingco-educational schools to have some single-sex classes. In the UK the best schools are allsingle-sex, strongly suggesting that co-education is not the best answer. This may, however, not be as simple as it looks. It may simply be that the famous old schools that attract the best students happen to be single-sex, rather than that being single-sex makes them better schools.50. In the third paragr aph, by saying “though there is no proof that this is the case〞, the writer means that ________.A. students in single-sex schools will certainly become homosexualB. students in co-educational schools cannot have extreme opinionsC. students in co-educational schools are likely to be homosexualD. single-sex school conditions may or may not have effects on the students.51. All the following arguments can be found in the passage EXCEPT that _______.A. co-education can produce a society-like situationB. co-educational schools may lead to love affairs between boys and girlsC. co-education will help develop a better understanding about the opposite sexD. co-education can make boys perform well in mixed classes52. Alarmed by the situation, the UK government encourages _______.A. co-educationB. single-sex educationC. single-sex classes in co-educational schoolsD. co-educational classes in single-sex schools53. At the end of the passage the writer suggests that _______.A. single-sex schools are the best schools in the UKB. being single-sex does not necessarily make a school betterC. co-educational schools are better for both sexes in personal developmentD. because boys cannot compete with girls in study, they go to single-sex schoolsCPeople with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a stronger effect on their health.From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are regular. Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.The research team interviewed a national sample of 1,031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health. People without a high school diploma(毕业文凭) reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.‘‘Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health.〞leading researcher Dr. Joseph Grzywacz of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement. “The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors(紧张刺激物), and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more damaging for the less advantaged.〞Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known that their stress is more acute and chronic(急性和慢性).“If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor〞Grzywacz says. “Maybe it is just life.〞54. Stress level is closely related to ________.A. family sizeB. social positionC. body weightD. work experience55. Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?A. People without any educationB. People without high school degreesC. People with high school degreesD. People with college degrees56. The less advantaged people are, the greater ________.A. the effect of stress on their health isB. the effect of education on their health isC. the level of their education isD. the degree of their health concern is57. Less-educated people report fewer days of stress possibly because ________.A. they don’t want to tell the truthB. they don’t want to face the truthC. stress is too common a factor in their lifeD. their stress is more acuteDScientists say they were able to reduce the effect of the AIDS with a drug first designed to treat other conditions. AIDS damages the protection system so the body cannot fight viruses inside the body. At present, medicines can reduce HIV to levels low enough to keep people alive. But these drugs are not a cure. Small amounts of the virus still remain in human’s body. If it wakes up again, the virus can become active and begin to copy itself, so people must continue to take medicine.A new study has been carried out on four patients. They had already taken medicine for more than two years. The researchers first improved the effect of the drug. Then in addition, they gave the patient another one, valproic acid(丙戊酸). Valproic acid is used to help epilepsy(癫痫病)patients. Some people with depression(抑郁症) also take the drug to calm themselves down.But valproic acid has also been shown to block something that helps HIV, the AIDS virus, to hide. The patients took the medicine twice a day for three months.Over this time, the researchers say the amount of the virus was reduced by nearly seventy-five percent in three of the four people. But the numbers returned to earlier levels whenthe treatment ended.Valproic acid has some serious dangers, especially for women who will soon give birth. Doctor Margolis says more study is needed into its use against AIDS. But the scientists do say that their early finding suggests that new methods will produce a cure of HIV in the future. Some other scientists, however, say it is too early to talk of cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy.They say a cure would have to make the patients healthy again and the virus might not hide only in the protection system.58. Which of the following is NOT a function of Valproic acid?A. To control the effects of epilepsy.B. To block something that helps HIV.C. To calm down people with depression.D. To improve the strength of other drugs.59. By saying that “it is to o early to talk of cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy〞, theauthor means_________.A. Scientists hope to find the cure for AIDS soonB. Scientist don’t want to talk about their cure too earlyC. Scientists doubt a cure for AIDS can soon be foundD. It’s too late to find the cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy60. This text most probably appears in _________.A. a newspaperB. a book on Chinese medicineC. a noticeD. a tour guide book61. We can learn from the text that ________.A. valproic acid can help all HIV patientsB. usually the AIDs virus is not difficult to destroyC. the effects of valproic acid do not last foreverD. doctors have found an effective way to cure the AIDSEMany students are planning field trips as spring draws near. Fourteen-year-old Zhou Liqun is busy digging holes (洞) along rivers. The girl and her "One Piece of Paper Team" are planting trees to improve the environment.They collect waste paper to sell for trees and have set up websites (网站) to spread the message of connections between humans and nature. "We want to make environmental protection everyone's habit," says the girl. "Even a piece of paper matters."Eager to join Zhou in such meaningful work? Now you are offered advice on what to do. Last month, measures for public participation (参与) in environmental protection were published by the State Environmental protection Administration (SEPA, 国家环保总局). the special measures are expected to change the light rain of the past into a storm of environmental protection.Last year's Songhua River pollution acted as an alarm (警报) to Chinese people. According to SEPA officials, environmental pollution has become serious, and will continue so for the next15 years.A recent survey showed that though most Chinese people care about environmental problems, they don't put their concerns into practice. One reason is that they don't know how. So the newly published measures present information about how to report environmental problems and how to join in the battle against pollution.Actually there is much you can do in daily life. Buy less to reduce waste. Don't throw away things before you have made the most use of them. Use electricity, water and gas only whennecessary. Switch them off when you don't need them.Everyone can participate in making the planet suitable for future generations; Why not join in and make our world more fantastic?62. What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage?A. To praise Zhou Liqun and her friends.B. To remind us that our world is heavily polluted.C. To give us advice on how to make environmental protection everyone's habit.D. To call on people to join in the fight against the environmental pollution.63. According to the passage, what does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 3?A. The government is hoping for a heavy storm in order to make our world clean.B. People hate that it often rained gently in the past.C. Measures are expected to strengthen the action of keeping the world clean.D. The measures are sure to work.64. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Zhou Liqun dug hole along rivers.B. The students have set up websites.C. Buy less to reduce waste in daily life.D. Never use coal, water and gas unless necessary.65. What is the best title of the passage?A. Songhua River is in DangerB. Students Improve EnvironmentC. Measures to Reduce WasteD. Pollution Makes Our World Worse第二节：阅读以下材料，从所给的六个选项〔A、B、C、D、E和F〕中，选出符合各小题要求的最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
