第I 卷(选择题) 一、阅读理解AWe ate on the go more than ever before. Here are three health apps that can help you better manage yourhealth when you pursue your dreams.(1) Doctors On DemandDoctors On Demand enables you to visit a doctor without ever leaving your home, helping you use acomputer, tablet or smart phone to have a doctor video chat with you. The service will help you locate and connect you to licensed doctors, psychologists, pediatricians (儿科医生) and more. Fees can be paid with HAS & FSA. It costs $ 40 for 15 minutes with a doctor or $50 for 20 minutes with a psychologist.(2) Text 4 babyI’m a big fan of Text4baby for a few reasons. The free service for pregnant women and new momsworks by sending text messages to your smart phone three times a week with information about how to havea healthy pregnancy and baby. And the messages are timed to the pregnant woman’s due date or the baby’sdate of birth, sending tips that are relevant to where a mother is in her pregnancy or where a baby is in stages of development. Tips range from breastfeeding to car seat safety to reminders about exercise, nutrition andmore. The service combines interactive text messages, an app, video and web content in English and Spanish.Sign up by texting BABY to 511-411 or by downloading the app.(3) RISERISE, an app available on iPhone (coming to Android in 2016), pairs you up with (与绑定) a registereddietitian to improve your diet and reach health goals. You share photos of your meals and your exercise forthe day with your coach, who then looks for areas where you can improve and gives advice, helps you set goals and is there to pat you on the back virtually (虚拟地) when you hit a milestone. What’s also great is that you can text as much as you want with your dietitian and there is no need to go into an office. Fees for this service range from $9 per month to $50 a month. There is a free 7-day trial so you can try it out for a week to see if it’s fit for you. 1.How much will you pay if you have a video chat with your psychologist for an hour using Doctors On Demand? A. $50. B. $80. C. $100. D. $150. 2.We can infer that the author is probably a . A. famous pediatrician B. software engineer C. pregnant woman or new mother D. registered dietitian 3.What do you know about Text 4 baby? A. It is an app available only on iPhone. B. You can sign up by texting BABY to 511-411. C. People can’t use Text4baby for free. D. Text messages are sent in three languages. B 54-year-old Abdul has a special job. He has been working as a living statue for over three decades, standing perfectly still for six hours a day and resisting people’s attempts to make him move or smile, anything that proves he is a living person. Abdul, known as “India’s Statue Man,” has been performing his daily routine ever since 1985, soo n after getting a job as a security guard. His boss had recently traveled to the UK, where he was so impressed by the statue-like members of the Royal Guard outside Buckingham Palace that he wanted to do something similar back home. So he had his guards receive three months of training, where they would sit perfectly still for around four hours. They weren’t allowed to talk or smile, eat, drink, or even shoo away a fly if it sat on their faces. In the end, Abdul proved the best of the group, so he got the strange job.此卷只装订不密封 班级姓名准考证号考场号座位号Abdul isn’t the only person in the world acting as a living statue, but what makes him special is the fact that he can do it for as long as six hours without even blinking his eyes. Once, a $ 155 prize was put up for anyone who can make him move a muscle. But try as they might, no one has ever succeeded. Actually, Abdul tries to move about as much as he can in his spare time, and only eats healthy home-cooked food, to keep his body in shape. But he claims yoga has been the biggest help. In the 32 years, Abdul has become a celebrity in India and other Asian countries. Many Bollywood celebritiesAbdul earns about 10,000 rupees ($ 156) a month, which is enough to support his family, but definitely not enough to encourage his children to follow in hi s footsteps. It’s just too stressful and taxing on the body. “Despite all the hardship and health problems, I love my job and I am thankful to people for the love and respect they have showered on me... he says. “When the time comes, I want to die playing a statue.”4.What is Abdul’s daily routine?A. Performing as a living statue.B. Proving to be a living person.C. Smiling at his customers.D. Keeping his body in shape.5.Why could Abdul get the strange job given by his boss?A. He had his special ambition.B. He was most familiar with the job.C. He stood out among the group.D. He knew the boss more than others.6.What does Abdul do in his spare time?A. He eats a lot of snacks.B. He practices yoga for 12 hours a day.C. He cooks for his family.D. He always moves a lot.7.How does Abdul feel about his job according to the text?A. It’s overpaid.B. It’s satisfying.C. It’s boring.D. It’s instructive.C(题文)Cycling or even walking in city areas can be a little dangerous, thanks to the fact that one is sharing the road with vehicles that are increasingly getting larger and heavier. A recent study proves that of the 1.27 million people that die in road traffic crashes each year, about half are walkers, motorcyclists and cyc lists. Now there may be a solution that could provide at least some help to protect this helpless group… an airbag!If you are worried that this safety measure will involve you taking around a heavy package or worse still, wrapping yourself inside an ugly plastic bag, the bag is fitted not on the human, but on the outside of the vehicle. And, while there are several versions of the idea in the works, the one most recently unveiled (揭露) by Dutch car company TNO, seems to be the most advanced and ready to go into production.In the works since 2011, the airbag covers only the lower part of the windshield. This will provide the much needed buffer (缓冲) between the person’s head and the pane of glass he/she would otherwise meet.The chain of events leading to an airbag cause are quite simple---A camera fitted beneath the rear-view mirror monitors the vehicle’s closeness to a walker or cyclist. Any contact with either one of them sets off the sensors in the car’s bumper and quickly blows up the airbag. In addition to that the sensors also set off the car’s automatic brake, reducing the chances if an even worse injury.In tests conducted using a model, the success of not getting injured after being hit by a car travelling at about 40km/h was about 50-50! While not perfect, it will still result in reducing the number of deaths by a huge amount.With TNO ready to license its technology to car makers and many more companies trying to develop similar concepts, we would not be surprised if outer airbags become a standard feature in every car pretty soon.8.(小题1)Why does the airbag cover the lower part of the windshield?A. To protect the windshield from being destroyed.B. To make the vehicle look beautiful.C. To reduce the weight of walkers.D. To prevent people’s head cr ashing on the glass.9.(小题2)The fourth paragraph is mainly about .A. how the airbag worksB. where the airbag is fixedC. why the airbag is safeD. what the airbag is made up of10.(小题3)The writer thinks the airbag of TNO .A. perfectB. practicalC. expensiveD. useless11.(小题4)What is the main idea of the passage?A. Airbags are a new standard feature in cars.B. Airbags are much safer for drivers now.C. Airbags are practical for walkers and cyclists.D. Airbags are a solution to higher car accident rates.DAs any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to ignore, no matter how hard you try. Now scientists believe they may have worked out why. A baby’s cry pulls at the heartstrings (扣人心弦) in a way whi le other cries don’t, researchers found.Researchers found that a baby’s cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore them---whether we are parents or not. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get the same response---suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a baby’s cry.A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries. After 100 milliseconds, two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up. Their response to a baby’s cry was particularly strong. The response was seen in both men and women-even if they had no children.Researcher Dr, Christine Parsons said, “You might rea d that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but it’s not true. There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary view that both men and women would be responding to these cries,” The study invo lved people who were not parents, yet they are all responding quickly to these particular cries so this might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status.Researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own child’s cries because they need to do more “fine-grained analysis”. The team had previously found that our reactions speed up when we hear a baby crying. Adults performed better on computer games when they were played the sound of a baby crying than after they heard recordings of adults crying or high-pitched (高音的) birdsong. The findings could help shed light on post-natal (产后的) depression---where mothers struggle to bond with their newborn---by showing how a healthy brain responds to a baby’s cries.12.A baby’s cry is difficult to ignore because it .A. keeps on cryingB. cries harder than adultsC. causes people great painD. makes people feel strong emotions13.The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 2 probably means “‘‘A. removeB. avoidC. causeD. cure14.What may Christine Parsons agree to?A. Almost everyone makes certain response to a baby’s cries.B. A crying baby makes no sense to people without children.C. Men pay less attention to a crying baby than women.D. Parents can hardly recognize their own babies’ cry.15.Computer games are mentioned in the text to show .A. players’ different reactions to a crying babyB. baby’s crying contributes to quicker reactionsC. the influence of baby’s and adult’s crying on performanceD. it’s hard to keep one’s concentration with a crying baby nearby二、七选五Last week the electricity in my flat went out. I had just got home from work and was happily making my tea, when all of a sudden I was surrounded by complete darkness. I tried to fix it but failed. I had to wait for an electrician to come in the morning. 16.I sat down to eat my half - cooked dinner. And then I wasn’t really sure what to do. My typical evening is spent watching the TV and looking through social media.17.So for me it was an early night. And I couldn’t help but think, do we rely too much on electricity?

It contributes to global warming. It is harming our environment and we need to do what we can to stop it. Not only that, but if we continue to use the same large amount of energy we will soon run out.So, shouldn’t we s tart preparing for it now? Cutting back on our use of electricity would make losing it easier, and also save energy resources so that they could last for longer.20.And if everyone does the same, we can make a big difference.A. Tonight this wasn’t possibl e.B. Obviously, we can’t survive without it.C. Our over-use of electricity is a big problem.D. This left me a whole night without any electricity.E. Electricity brings us convenience and trouble.F. But really, we’ve grown to take electricity for grant ed.G. I know for sure that I could cut down on my use of electricity.三、完形填空“I have a letter for you,” my friend Kirsten told me on the phone. “I think it’s from your mother.” I was ______, since my mother had been ______ for seven years.A few weeks later Kirsten handed me the ______ dated Aug. 30, 2002.

AAll over the country many of our native species are in great decline.But many farmers are working hard to restore and increase natural habitats to help bring the wildlife back.Creating new habitats for wildlife in WalesFarmer Chris James take a sustainable(可持续'性的)approach to farming at Gupton Farm in Wales.Chris has applied a technique called precision farming to the more productive land.This uses detailed analysis of nutrient levels in the soil to target fertiliser more carefully.This means he uses fewer chemicals,which is better for water quality.Good food and wildlife in GloucestershireJonty and Mel Brunyee believe that good food,native livestock(家禽)and wildlife conservation go hand-in-hand.The couple work at Conygree Farm in Gloucestershire.Their aim is to develop an organic and sustainable farming system that improves soil quality,restores key habitats and builds links with the wider community through education work.Farming for nature in YorkshireNature is very important to Neil and Leigh Heseltine.The couple are fourth generation at Hill Top Farm in Yorkshire.They've used sustainable ways of farming to protect the area's scenery.In2003they re-introduced Belted Galloway cattle.This helps support the upland ecosystem by making space fornative species to develop.The importance of making space for nature in SussexWorking with nature to produce high quality meat is the goal for Paul and Madeleine Crawley at Courthill Farm in Sussex.To do this,they are making sure there are areas of wildflowers.These provide food and protection for insects,birds and animals.21.What benefit can precision farming bring?A.Protecting water quality.B.Stopping using fertilisers.C.Increasing crop production.D.Improving soil's nutrient levels.22.Who wants to influence more people to preserve nature?A.Chris James.B.Mel BrunyeeC.Leigh HeseltineD.Madeleine Crawley23.What do the farmers in the text have in common?A.They were brought up at farms.B.They are working with their families,C.They are experts in raising and training animals.D.They are trying to develop a good relationship with nature.BThere is a restaurant in my Maine town that has done little to update itself over the past80years. This is part of its charm,as is the wooden phone booth that sits neglected in the age of the cellphone.Ah, the phone booth.We need it now more than ever.For me it symbolizes that phone calls were once private affairs,even if the information being shared was not sensitive in any way.It was simply assumed that a phone cenversation was meant for two people,and two people only.Growing up in the1960s,we had only phone in the house.As a kid,I didn't get,or make many calls because all my friends five within earshot and I could just yell out the window if I wanted their attention.I do,however,remember answering the phone,asking for the identity of the caller,and then handing the phone to my mom,She'd take it,say"Hello,Mrs...one moment please,"and then as she placed her hand over the receiver,she turned to me,and directed,"This is for me.Why don't you go outside and play?"Flash forward to what cellphones have done to our life.Within the space of a few years,overhearing private conversations seems to be normal.Not long ago I was sitting in Boston's South Station,near a man who was on his cellphone,waiting for my train.The following is what the man had to say,"Yes,thafs right.The red and yellow roses.^, Then he continued to recite his card number arid expiration date(有效期).I stared at the fellow.He glanced at me and asked,"What?"My response was immediate:I recited his card number back to him,along with the expiration date.There is no longer a sense of personal borders or limits.The cellphone has become a megaphone (扩音器),and I have been privy(私下知情)to details of people's lives that I would rather not know. Maybe phone booths could serve as cellphone harbors today.24.What feature does the restaurant in Maine town have?A.It is very popularC.It will close down21.As a kid,the authorA.had a few friendsB.often called his friendsC.was not allowed to answer the phoneD.learned that phone conversations are private26.What is the author's attitude towards cellphone?A.CriticalB.Tolerate27.What did the author do in Boston's South Station?A.He talked to an old friend.B.He bought some colorful roses.C.He overheard a man's personal information.D.He helped a stranger who was making a call.C B.It is old-fashionedD.It has been neglectedC.OptimisticD.ApprovingMy high school pays lots of attention to sports.Sports are well-celebrated.Arts and sciences are simply tolerated.Football players are princes.Artists are stepchildren.The ice hocky team walks on water./Musicians just walk.I am aware that the single greatest factor in preventing heart disease is regular and active exercise, and that gets my vote.In junior high school I played baseball and loved it.What I am against is unfairallocation of community resources to sports that benefit one select group of students over another.I believe school-should be even-handed when slicing the pie.Our school will spend&26,000this winter alone to pay for ice time for the hocky team.That's before even a dollar is spent on coaches,insurance,transportation,and equipment.On the other hand, the drama department doesn't even have a good set of body microphones.The athletic program at out school has become almost a religion.Many students are short of sleep because they have to catch a6:20a.m.school bus.The school day must start that early so athletes who travel around our town for away games(客场上匕赛)limit their missed classes.The result of this catering to sports is sleepy students and discouraged academic students.Meanwhile,as more and more master teachers retire,our school cannot find experienced replacements一the cost of buying a home here is unaffordable for most st year,an advertised math position drew only a single applicant.Yet instead of following the example of the best private schools by building teacher housing on school land,our school is ready to develop the last, prized acres of school land to expand the athletic fields even further.I am not suggesting cutting down or even getting rid of any sports programs.I am simply stating that there's no need to expand an already large athletic department.I think our school should take the advice of all wrestling coaches:Time to go on a little diet.28.How does Paragraph1mainly develop?A.By making comparisonsB.By providing examples.C.By analyzing reasons.D.By explaining terms.29.Why does the school day start early?A.To avoid rush hour.B.To follow the tradition.C.To let the students have more classes.D.To make the athletes miss fewer classes.30.How can the author9s school attract replacement teachers?A.By providing accommodation for teachers.B.By improving the school environment.C.By increasing the schooFs reputation.D.By offering teachers high salaries.31.What does the author mean by saying"Time to go on a little diet"in the last paragraph?A.Coaches need to be more carefiil about athletes5diet.B.The school should give fewer resources to athletics.C.Athletes should limit the amount of food they eat.D.The athletic department needs to be downsized.DThe earth has changed,over and over again,throughout the course of its history,In order to survive in changing environments,species must often go through a process of adaptation.Adaptation refers to genetic change that enables an organism(生物体)such as an animal or plant to survive in its environment.If the organisms of a species cannot change along with the area in which they live,they risk dying out.Recent history has given us an important example of how organisms are able to survive once their environments change.Light gray peppered moths(胡椒蛾)and dark-colored peppered moths lived in the countryside between the cities of Manchester and London in England,Many years before the19th century,more of the light gray peppered moths had been able to survive in their environment mostly because of their color.Birds couldn't see the light-colored moths on the trees because the color of the moths was similar to the color of the trees.In the early19th century,though,England began the first years of its Industrial Revolution.Many areas became occupied by a growing number of factories.Many of these factories needed coal to provide energy for their machines.When coal bums,it gives off a lot of dark-colored smokes.The trees began to blacken because of all the smoke in the air from the factories.This made the light gray peppered moths much more vulnerable.Birds could see them on the trees more dearly and easily hunt them down.Sometime in the next hundred years,scientists began to notice a huge change in the moth population living in and between the cities of Manchester and London.Most of the peppered moths were of the dark-colored kind!What caused this change was the fact that birds had eaten a lot of the light gray peppered moths because the moths could be seen clearly on the darkened trees.The dark­colored peppered moths in the area survived much more easily and mated with other dark-colored peppered moths until most of the population of peppered moths became dark-colored.32.If a species can't adapt to the changing environment,they are likely to.A.be driven out of their habitat.B.become extinctC.move to another environmentD.go through genetic changes33.What conclusion can be drawn from the change in two kinds of moths?A.There were previously no dark-colored peppered moths.B.The light-colored peppered moths moved to a new environment.C.The color change had nothing to do with the change in their environment.D.Dark coloring was better for the peppered moths,survival in the19th century.34.What does the underlined word"vulnerable"probably mean?A.Quick to changeB.Open to attackC.Easily defendedD.In a strong position35.What does the author mainly describe in the passage?A.How the Industrial Revolution improved the lives of workers.B.How the earth changed throughout the course of its history.C.How human influence organisms through artificial selection.D.How natural selection changed the population of peppered moths.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。

Aug. 31.BAs a videogame producer, John Day has created popular games such as “Meet the Robinsons”, “Car 2” and “Toy Story 3”.When he was young, Day spent lots of time playing videogames, but getting game ideas from his imagination to the screen required plenty of technical know-how, too. Luckily for Day, his father worked in the computer industry and shared his knowledge. However, Day says, “Each time he caught me playing games as a kid, histrademark phrase was, ‘You’re never going to amount to anything, wasting all that time on these videogames.’”“I built my first PC when I was 11,” Day says, “and I never really stopped.”While studying business management in college, Day also worked as a game tester. Both his education and job experience help him now as he comes up with new ideas, meets deadlines and solves problems.A videogame produc er is in charge of a game’s development from beginning to end. Day says, “All producers have to be designers, at least a little bit.” Another part of Day’s job is getting things done on time and within budget. “We have to create a product before a certain date, and it takes work to get there.” Sometimes that can be a challenge. Problems come up often when he’s working on a game, and in his fast-paced industry, missing a deadline is not allowed.In his job, Day answers to many people who are expecting high-q uality games. That’s a lot of responsibility, but Day believes these demands help him do his job better. Part of the excitement for him is not just playing a game, but also being able to share it with others.“With a finished product, it’s really great to finally be able to sit down with my friends and family, and say, ‘Look, this is what I’ve been doing all this time. Let’s play it together.’”4. As a kid, John Day .A. lacked imaginationB. didn’t do well in his lessonsC. was crazy about videogamesD. got his first PC as a birthday present5. What can we know about Day’s father according to the passage?A. He was very strict with Day.B. He had a big influence on Day.C. He was in support of Day’s hobby.D. He expected Day to be a businessman.6. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?A. How to produce a videogame.B. What a videogame producer does.C. The importance of job experience.D. The challenge of balancing the budget.7. What does Day think of his job?A. Boring.B. Easy.C. Well-paid.D. Enjoyable.CAbout 20, 000 years ago, much of Europe, Asia, North and South America was covered by huge sheets of ice, each many kilometers thick. Since then, the ice has gradually melted and the ice sheets have retreated. Today, the only ice she ets on Earth’s land masses are found in Antarctica and Greenland. Some ice also occurs as glaciers in mountainous regions and as floating ice floes (浮冰块) in the Arctic Ocean and around Antarctica.At first sight, these remote left-overs from the last Ice Age seem of little importance for most of us today. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Many scientists believe that our planet is warming as a result of the greenhouse gases that we are pumping into the atmosphere. If the planet becomes warmer, the ice sheets will start to melt, causing sea level to rise perhaps several meters by the end of this century. Such a rise would cause widespread flooding of low-lying coastal areas and threaten many large cities.Observations from space suggest that parts of the major ice sheets are beginning to melt more rapidly. Meanwhile, recent satellite images have also shown that unusually large areas of sea ice have been melting during the Arctic summer. Although sea level will not be affected by the melting of the floating ice, there will be other important environmental changes. For example, ice sheets act like a mirror, reflecting sunlight and cooling Earth. If the ice disappears, Earth is likely to become warmer and major climate changes could occur. Wildlife living in the polar regions may also be destroyed.8. What does the underlined word “retreated” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Cured.B. Grown.C. Reduced.D. Disappeared.9. What’s most common people’s attitude towards the ice sheets?A. Optimistic.B. Unconcerned.C. Critical.D. Worried.10. What would happen if the greenhouse gases continue to increase?A. Vast amounts of land will be flooded.B. Large cities in the world will disappear.C. The sea level will drop to its lowest level.D. Global temperatures will see ups and downs.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Ice sheets melt faster than floating ice.B. Space research makes for climate changes.C. The melting of floating ice isn’t damaging.D. Sea ice melting will have disastrous effects.DCosmetic surgery (整容手术) is not something to be entered into lightly. Unfortunately, in this modem world, we have become confused by very narrow standards of beauty. Images of celebrities who never seem to age are seen everywhere these days. We forget the fact that most of these images are the result of super photo manipulation (处理), driven by the incredibly powerful beauty industry. We are all different — why should we all look the same? Isn’t there more to life than undergoing surgery in order to have the same boring face that everybody else wants to have?—Dr Elisabeth McKenna, Psychologist Yes, it’s fake! That’s what I told my friends when they started asking me about my nose job. I’d always been sensitive to my nose, but it took me a long time before I decided to go for cosmetic surgery. I took advice from several doctors and after careful consultation I finally decided to have it done. I had been saving money from my part-time job and my parents helped me out with the rest. It was quite expensive but I don’t regret a penny of it. In fact I wish I’d had it done a few years ago. I’ m sure I wouldn’t have been teased so much at school.—Debbie Caron, Student It makes me really angry to think of the millions of people who spend a fortune on cosmetic surgery. Surgery should be carried out for medical purposes, not vanity (虚荣心). I would rather all the money spent on cosmetic surgery was available to treat people around the world who are in need but can’t get proper medical treatment. Furthermore, there are thousands of under-qualified surgeons out there who only care about getting as rich as possible as quickly as possible. They don’t care about the psychological and physical damage they do. The whole industry makes me sick. We should do something to ban it.—Danny Glass, Student12. What does Dr Elisabeth McKenna suggest?A. Don’t be fooled by “perfection”.B. Cosmetic surgery often goes wrong.C. The beauty industry needs improving.D. It’s necessary to set new standards of beauty.13. What did Debbie Caron’s c osmetic surgery bring to her?A. More friends.B. More worries.C. More self-confidence.D. More job opportunities.14. How does Danny Glass feel about those who have cosmetic surgery?A. They should be treated as patients.B. They hurt themselves badly.C. They can have a new start.D. They should be ashamed.15. What would be the best title for the text?A. Hard talk — cosmetic surgeryB. The future of cosmetic surgeryC. The mystery of cosmetic surgeryD. A new fashion — cosmetic surgery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。

GodBIf you are a male and you are reading this, congratulations you are a survivor According to statistics, you are more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer than a woman, and nine times more likely to die of AIDS Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term, about 78 years for men in Australia, you will die on average five years before a woman There are many reasons for this, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke, but perhaps more importantly, men don’t go to the doctor“Men aren’t seeing doctors as often as they shoul d,” says Dr Gullotta, “This is particularly so for the over-40s, when diseases tend to strike” Gullotta says a healthy man should visit the doctor every year or two For those over 45,it should be at least once a yearAccording to a recent survey, 95%of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, pared to 70% of men in the same age group“A lot of men thin k they are invincible (不可战胜的)”Gullotta says “They only e in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think ‘Dear me, if it could happen to him, …’ ”Then there is the ostrich (鸵鸟)approach, “Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know, ” says Dr Ross Cartmill“ Most men get their cars serviced more often than they service their bodies,” Cartmill says He believes most diseases that monly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups Regular check-ups for men would inevitably(不可避免地) place stress on the public purse Cartmill says “But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases Besides, the final cost is far greater”46 Which is the most important reason why men die five years earlier on average than women according to the passage ?A Men drink and smoke much more than womenB Men aren’t as cautious as women in face of dangerC Men don’t seek medical care as often as womenD Men are more likely to suffer from fatal diseases47Which of the following best pletes the sentence “Dear me, if it could happen to him,…”in paragraph5 ?A I should avoid playing golfB I should consider myself luckyC it would be a big misfortuneD it could happen to me, too48 What does Dr Ross Cartmill mean by “the ostrich approach” in paragraph 6 ?A A netreatment for certain psychological problemsB Refusal to get medical treatment for fear of the pain involvedC Unwillingness to find out about one’s disease because of fearD A casual attitude towards one’s health conditions49 What does Cartmill say about regular check-ups for men?A They may increase public expensesB They will save money in the long runC They may cause psychological stress on menD They will enable men to live as long as womenCMy mother moved a lot when she was growing up on account of Grandpa being in the army.She hated having to adjust to neschools and make nefriends.That’s why I thought she was joking when she put forward the idea of moving.But she was pletely serious “F or just the two of us,” my mother said,“an apartment in the city will suit our needs much better.” Personally, I think she lost her mind.I guess I can understand why she would want to move,but what about me and what this house means to me?I suppose if you looked at my house,you might think it was just another country house.But to me it is anything but standard.I moved into this house with my parents ten years ago I can still remember that first day like it was yesterday.The first thing I noticed was the big front yard.To me it seemed like an ocean of grass—couldn’t wait to dive in.The backyardwas full of gnarled(扭曲的,粗糙的)and scary trees that talked on windy nights.But I greto like them and the shadows they cast in my room.My father and I even built a small tree house,where I often go to remember all the wonderful time we had before Father’s deathThis house is special—maybe only to me—but special nevertheless It’s the little seemingly insignificant things that make this house so special to me; the ice-cold tile floors that make me tremble on midnight snake runs; the smell of my fathers pipe that still exists; the towering bookcases of my mother; the vieoutside my bedroom windowThis house bears too many memories, memories which would be lost if we gave it up50.Why did the author’s mother decide to move?A.Because she hated the countryside.B.Because Grandpa was on constant move.C.Because Dad’s death made her lose her mind.D.Because she thought a city flat more fit for them.51.What impressed the author when she first moved into the house?A.The tree house B.The big trees C.The cold

AAll over the country many of our native species are in great decline. But many farmers are working hard to restore and increase natural habitats to help bring the wildlife back.Creating new habitats for wildlife in WalesFarmer Chris James take a sustainable (可持续性的) approach to farming at Gupton Farm in Wales. Chris has applied a technique called precision farming to the more productive land. This uses detailed analysis of nutrient levels in the soil to target fertiliser more carefully. This means he uses fewer chemicals, which is better for water quality.Good food and wildlife in GloucestershireJonty and Mel Brunyee believe that good food, native livestock (家禽) and wildlife conservation go hand-in-hand. The couple work at Conygree Farm in Gloucestershire. Their aim is to develop an organic and sustainable farming system that improves soil quality, restores key habitats and builds links with the wider community through education work.Farming for nature in YorkshireNature is very important to Neil and Leigh Heseltine. The couple are fourth generation at Hill Top Farm in Yorkshire. They’ve used sustainable ways of farming to protect the area’s scenery. In 2003 they re-introduced Belted Galloway cattle. This helps support the upland ecosystem by making space fornative species to develop.The importance of making space for nature in SussexWorking with nature to produce high quality meat is the goal for Paul and Madeleine Crawley at Courthill Farm in Sussex. To do this, they are making sure there are areas of wildflowers. These provide food and protection for insects, birds and animals.21. What benefit can precision farming bring?A. Protecting water quality.B. Stopping using fertilisers.C. Increasing crop production.D. Improving soil’s nutrient levels.22. Who wants to influence more people to preserve nature?A. Chris James.B. Mel BrunyeeC. Leigh HeseltineD. Madeleine Crawley23. What do the farmers in the text have in common?A. They were brought up at farms.B. They are working with their families,C. They are experts in raising and training animals.D. They are trying to develop a good relationship with nature.BThere is a restaurant in my Maine town that has done little to update itself over the past 80 years. This is part of its charm, as is the wooden phone booth that sits neglected in the age of the cellphone. Ah, the phone booth. We need it now more than ever.For me it symbolizes that phone calls were once private affairs, even if the information being shared was not sensitive in any way. It was simply assumed that a phone cenversation was meant for two people, and two people only.Growing up in the 1960s, we had only phone in the house. As a kid, I didn’t get, or make many calls because all my friends five within earshot and I could just yell out the window if I wanted their attention. I do, however, remember answering the phone, asking for the identity of the caller, and then handing the phone to my mom, She’d take it, say “Hello, Mrs…one moment please,” an d then as she placed her hand over the receiver, she turned to me, and directed, “This is for me. Why don’t you go outside and play?”Flash forward to what cellphones have done to our life. Within the space of a few years,overhearing private conversations seems to be normal. Not long ago I was sitting in Boston’s South Station, near a man who was on his cellphone, waiting for my train.The following is what the man had to say, “Yes, tha t’s right. The red and yellow roses.” Then he continued to recite his card number arid expiration date (有效期). I stared at the fellow. He glanced at me and asked, “What?” My response was immediate: I recited his card number back to him, along with the expiration date.There is no longer a sense of personal borders or limits. The cellphone has become a megaphone (扩音器), and I have been privy (私下知情) to details of people’s lives that I would rather not know. Maybe phone booths could serve as cellphone harbors today.24. What feature does the restaurant in Maine town have?A. It is very popularB. It is old-fashionedC. It will close downD. It has been neglected21. As a kid, the authorA. had a few friendsB. often called his friendsC. was not allowed to answer the phoneD. learned that phone conversations are private26. What is the author’s attitude towards cellphone?A. CriticalB. TolerateC. OptimisticD. Approving27. What did the author do in Boston’s South Station?A. He talked to an old friend.B. He bought some colorful roses.C. He overheard a man’s personal information.D. He helped a stranger who was making a call.CMy high school pays lots of attention to sports. Sports are well-celebrated. Arts and sciences are simply tolerated. Football players are princes. Artists are stepchildren. The ice hocky team walks on water. /Musicians just walk.I am aware that the single greatest factor in preventing heart disease is regular and active exercise, and that gets my vote. In junior high school I played baseball and loved it. What I am against is unfairallocation of community resources to sports that benefit one select group of students over another. I believe school-should be even-handed when slicing the pie.Our school will spend & 26,000 this winter alone to pay for ice time for the hocky team. That’s before even a dollar is spent on coaches, insurance, transportation, and equipment. On the other hand, the drama department doesn’t even have a good set of body microphones.The athletic program at out school has become almost a religion. Many students are short of sleep because they have to catch a 6:20 a.m. school bus. The school day must start that early so athletes who travel around our town for away games (客场比赛) limit their missed classes. The result of this catering to sports is sleepy students and discouraged academic students.Meanwhile, as more and more master teachers retire, our school cannot find experienced replacements —the cost of buying a home here is unaffordable for most teachers. Last year, an advertised math position drew only a single applicant. Yet instead of following the example of the best private schools by building teacher housing on school land, our school is ready to develop the last, prized acres of school land to expand the athletic fields even further.I am not suggesting cutting down or even getting rid of any sports programs. I am simply stating that there’s no need to expand an already large athletic department. I think our school should take the advice of all wrestling coaches: Time to go on a little diet.28. How does Paragraph 1 mainly develop?A. By making comparisonsB. By providing examples.C. By analyzing reasons.D. By explaining terms.29. Why does the school day start early?A. To avoid rush hour.B. To follow the tradition.C. To let the students have more classes.D. To make the athletes miss fewer classes.30. How can the author’s school attract replacement teachers?A. By providing accommodation for teachers.B. By improving the school environment.C. By increasing the school’s reputation.D. By offering teachers high salaries.31. What does the author mean by saying “Time to go on a little diet” in the last paragraph?A. Coaches need to be more careful about athl etes’ diet.B. The school should give fewer resources to athletics.C. Athletes should limit the amount of food they eat.D. The athletic department needs to be downsized.DThe earth has changed, over and over again, throughout the course of its history, In order to survive in changing environments, species must often go through a process of adaptation. Adaptation refers to genetic change that enables an organism (生物体) such as an animal or plant to survive in its environment. If the organisms of a species cannot change along with the area in which they live, they risk dying out. Recent history has given us an important example of how organisms are able to survive once their environments change.Light gray peppered moths (胡椒蛾) and dark-colored peppered moths lived in the countryside between the cities of Manchester and London in England, Many years before the 19th century, more of the light gray peppered moths had been able to survive in their environment mostly because of their color. Birds couldn’t see the light-colored moths on the trees because the color of the moths was similar to the color of the trees.In the early 19th century, though, England began the first years of its Industrial Revolution. Many areas became occupied by a growing number of factories. Many of these factories needed coal to provide energy for their machines. When coal bums, it gives off a lot of dark-colored smokes. The trees began to blacken because of all the smoke in the air from the factories. This made the light gray peppered moths much more vulnerable. Birds could see them on the trees more dearly and easily hunt them down.Sometime in the next hundred years, scientists began to notice a huge change in the moth population living in and between the cities of Manchester and London. Most of the peppered moths were of the dark-colored kind! What caused this change was the fact that birds had eaten a lot of the light gray peppered moths because the moths could be seen clearly on the darkened trees. The dark- colored peppered moths in the area survived much more easily and mated with other dark-colored peppered moths until most of the population of peppered moths became dark-colored.32. If a species can’t adapt to the changing environment, they ar e likely to .A. be driven out of their habitat.B. become extinctC. move to another environmentD. go through genetic changes33. What conclusion can be drawn from the change in two kinds of moths?A. There were previously no dark-colored peppered moths.B. The light-colored peppered moths moved to a new environment.C. The color change had nothing to do with the change in their environment.D. Dark coloring was better for the peppered moths, survival in the 19th century.34. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” probably mean?A. Quick to changeB. Open to attackC. Easily defendedD. In a strong position35. What does the author mainly describe in the passage?A. How the Industrial Revolution improved the lives of workers.B. How the earth changed throughout the course of its history.C. How human influence organisms through artificial selection.D. How natural selection changed the population of peppered moths.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。

Adaptation refers to genetic change that enables an organism (生物体) such as an animal or plant to survive in its environment. If the organisms of a species cannot change along with the area in which they live, they risk dying out. Recent history has given us an important example of how organisms are able to survive once their environments change.Light gray peppered moths (胡椒蛾) and dark-colored peppered moths lived in the countryside between the cities of Manchester and London in England, Many years before the 19th century, more of the light gray peppered moths had been able to survive in their environment mostly because of their color. Birds couldn’t see the light-colored moths on the trees because the color of the moths was similar to the color of the trees.In the early 19th century, though, England began the first years of its Industrial Revolution. Many areas became occupied by a growing number of factories. Many of these factories needed coal to provide energy for their machines. When coal bums, it gives off a lot of dark-colored smokes. The trees began to blacken because of all the smoke in the air from the factories. This made the light gray peppered moths much more vulnerable. Birds could see them on the trees more dearly and easily hunt them down.Sometime in the next hundred years, scientists began to notice a huge change in the moth population living in and between the cities of Manchester and London. Most of the peppered moths were of the dark-colored kind! What caused this change was the fact that birds had eaten a lot of the light gray peppered moths because the moths could be seen clearly on the darkened trees. The dark- colored peppered moths in the area survived much more easily and mated with other dark-colored peppered moths until most of the population of peppered moths became dark-colored.32. If a species can’t adapt to the changing environment, they ar e likely to .A. be driven out of their habitat.B. become extinctC. move to another environmentD. go through genetic changes33. What conclusion can be drawn from the change in two kinds of moths?A. There were previously no dark-colored peppered moths.B. The light-colored peppered moths moved to a new environment.C. The color change had nothing to do with the change in their environment.D. Dark coloring was better for the peppered moths, survival in the 19th century.34. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” probably mean?A. Quick to changeB. Open to attackC. Easily defendedD. In a strong position35. What does the author mainly describe in the passage?A. How the Industrial Revolution improved the lives of workers.B. How the earth changed throughout the course of its history.C. How human influence organisms through artificial selection.D. How natural selection changed the population of peppered moths.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。
