Ecologists use the term “succession ”to refer to the changes that happen in plant communities and ecosystems over time. The first community in a succession is called a pioneer community, while the long-lived community at the end of succession is called a a climax community. Pioneer and successional plant communities are said to change over periods from 1 to 500 years. These changes in plant numbers and the mix of species are cumulative. Climax communities themselves change but over periods of time greater than about 500 years.An ecologist who studies a pond today may well find it relatively unchanged in a year’s time. Individual fish may be replaced, but the number of fish may tend to be the same from one year to the next. We can say that the properties of an ecosystem are more stable than the individual organisms that compose the ecosystem.At one time. Ecologists believed that species diversity made ecosystem stable. They believed that the greater the diversity the more stable the ecosystem. Support for this idea came from observation that long-lasting climax communities usually have more complex food webs and more species diversity than pioneer communities. Ecologist concluded that the apparent stability of climax ecosystems depended on their complexity. To take an extreme example, farmlands dominated by a singe crop are so unstable that one year of bad weather or the invasion of a single pest can destroy their entire crop. In contrast, a complex climax community , such as a temperate forest, will tolerate considerable damage from bad weather or pests.The question of ecosystem stability is complicated, however. The first problem is that ecologist don’t all agree what “stability “ means . Stability can be all defined as simply lack of change. In that case, the climax community would be considered the most stable, since, by definition, it changes the least over time. Alternatively, stability can be defined as the speed with which an ecosystem returns to a particular form following a major disturbance, such as a fire. This kind of stability is also called resilience . In that case, climax community would be the most fragile and the least stable, since they can acquire hundreds of years to return to the complex state.Even the kind of stability defined as simple lack of change is not always associated with maximum diversity. At least in temperate zones, maximum diversity is often found in mid-successional stages, not in the climax community. Once a redwood forest matures, for example, the kinds of species and the number of individuals growing on the forest floor are reduced. In general, diversity, by itself, does not ensure stability. Mathematical models of ecosystems likewise suggest that diversity does not guarantee ecosystem stability- just the opposite, in fact. A more complicated system is , in general, more likely than a simple system to break down. (A fifteen-speed racing bicycle is more likely to break down than a child’s tricycle）Ecologists are especially interested in knowing what factors contribute to the resilience of communities because climax communities all over the world are being severely damaged or destroyed by human activities. The destruction caused by volcanic explosion of Mount. St. Helens, in the northwestern United States, for example , pales in comparison to theconstruction cause by humans. We need to know what aspects of community are most important to the community’s resistance to destruction, as well as its recovery.Many ecologists now think that the relative long-term stability of climax communities comes not from diversity but from the “ patchiness” of the environment. An environment that varies from place to place supports more kinds of organisms than an environment that is uniform. A local population that goes extinct is quickly replaced by immigrants from an adjacent community. Even if the new population is of a different species, it can approximately fill the niche vacated by the extinct population and keep the food web intact.2 According to paragraph 1, which of the following is not true of climax communities?A They occur at the end of a succession.B They last longer than any other type of community.C The numbers of plants in them and the mix of species do not change.D They remain stable for at least 500 years at a time.3 According to paragraph 2, which of the following principles of ecosystems can be learned by studying a pond?A Ecosystem properties change more slowly than individuals in the system.B The stability of an ecosystem tends to change as individuals are replace.C Individual organisms are stable from one year to the next.D A change in the numbers of an organism does not affect tan ecosystem’s properties.4 According to paragraph 3, ecologist once believed that which of the following illustrated the most stable ecosystems?A Pioneer communitiesB Climax communitiesC Single-crop farmlandsD Successional plant communities5 According to paragraph 4, why is the question of ecosystem stability complicated?A The reasons for ecosystem change are not always clear.B Ecologists often confuse the word “stability” with the word “ resilience”.C The exact meaning of the word “ stability” is debated by ecologists.D There are many different answers to the ecological questions.6 According to paragraph 4, which of the following is true about climax community?A They are more resilient than pioneer communities.B They can be considered both the most and the least stable communities.C They are stable because they recover quickly after major disturbances.D They are the most resilient communities because they change the least over time.7 Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 5 about redwood forest?A They become less stable as they mature.B They support many species when they reach climax.C They are found in temperate zones.D They have reduced diversity during mid-successional stage.9 In paragraph 5, why does the author provide the information that “a A fifteen-speed racing bicycle is more likely to break down than a child’s tricycle”?A To illustrate a general principle about the stability of systems by using an every-day example.B To demonstrate that an understanding of stability in ecosystem can be applied to help understand stability in other situations.C To make a comparison that supports the claim that, in general, stability increases with diversity.D To provide an example that contradicts mathematical models of ecosystems.11 which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.A Ecologists now thinks that the stability of an environment is a result of diversity rather than patchiness.B Patchy environments that vary from place to place do not often have high species diversity.C Uniform environments can’t be climax communities because they do not support as many types of organisms as patchy environments.D A patchy environment is thought to increase stability because it is able to support a wide variety of organisms.Writing （30分）Some people think that strict punishments for driving offences are the key to reducing traffic accidents. Others, however, believe that other measures would be more effective in improving road safety.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.。

Please include specific details in your response.Sample Answer:In my culture, one unique tradition is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is celebrated during the fifth month of the lunar calendar. This tradition is important to me because it commemorates the life and death of the ancient Chinese poet Qu Yuan. The festival involves racing dragon boats, which are long, narrow, and paddled by teams of people. It's a symbol of unity and strength, as everyone works together to propel the boat forward. The Dragon Boat Festival also includes eating zongzi, which are sticky rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves. This tradition is a way for us to remember our history and honor the contributions of Qu Yuan, while also enjoying a day of community and competition.4. 写作部分Task:Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? "All scientific discoveries should be shared among scientists all around the world; governments should not keep these discoveries secret." Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Sample Answer:I agree with the statement that all scientific discoveries should be shared among scientists worldwide, and governments should not keep these discoveries secret. Firstly, sharing scientific knowledge promotes collaboration and innovation. When researchers from different countries can access the latest findings, they can build upon each other's work, leading to more rapid advancements in various fields. For example, the Human Genome Project was a global effort that involved scientists from multiple countries, and it resulted in a better understanding of human genetics.Secondly, keeping scientific discoveries secret can hinder the progress of medicine and technology. If a government withholds information about a new medical treatment, it could delay the treatment's availability to patients who need it. This was seen during the COVID-19 pandemic, where the rapid sharing of research on the virus and potential vaccines allowed for a quicker global response.Lastly, transparency in science fosters trust among nations. When countries openly share their scientific achievements, it can lead to increased cooperation and reduced tensions. This openness can also help to prevent the misuse of scientific discoveries for harmful purposes, as the international community can monitor and discuss the implications of new technologies.In conclusion, sharing scientific discoveries is crucial for the advancement of knowledge, the well-being of humanity, and global cooperation. Governments should prioritize the dissemination of scientific knowledge to foster a more collaborative and transparent scientific community.。

Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched, mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop . She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors." "Yes. I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them," the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, "But aren't you working late?" Mum just pushed harder, each swipe of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum nodded politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, Mum told me: "Dagmar is fine. No fever." "You saw her,Mum?" "Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."21. When she took a mop from the small room what Mum really wanted to do was ______.[A] to clean the floor [B] to please the nurse[C] to see a patient [D] to surprise the story-teller22. When the nurse talked to Mum she thought Mum was a _______.[A] nurse [B] visitor [C] patient [D] cleaner23. After reading the story what can we infer about the hospital?[A] It is a children's hospital. [B] It has strict rules about visiting hours.[C] The nurses and doctors there don't work hard.[D] A lot of patients come to this hospital every day.24. Why did Mother go to see Dagmar in the hospital?[A] To give her some message about Dad. [B] To make sure her room was clean.[C] To check that she was still there. [D] To find out how she was.25. Which of the following words best describes Mum?[A] polite [B] patient [C] changeable [D] clever Passage TwoLong after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the disputed refereeing decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.The researcher organized an experimental tournament involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.Observers noted down the referees' errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number. The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyse the matches in detail.Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum distance is about 20 meters. There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.If FIFA, football's international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues. He also says that FIFA's insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.26. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to _______.A) review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World CupB) analyse the causes of errors made by football refereesC) set a standard for football refereeing27. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was _______.A) slightly above average B) higher than in the 1998 World CupC) quite unexpected D) as high as in a standard match28. The findings of the experiment show that _______.A) errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ballB) the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errorsC) the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occurD) errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot29. The word "officials" (Line 2, Para. 4) most probably refers to _______.A) the researchers involved in the experimentB) the inspectors of the football tournamentC) the referees of the football tournamentD) the observers at the site of the experiment30. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?A) The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.B) Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.C) A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.D)An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.Passage ThreeIt is said that the public and Congressional concern about deceptive(欺骗性的) packaging rumpus(喧嚣) started because Senator Hart discovered that the boxes of cereals consumed by him, Mrs. Hart, and their children were becoming higher and narrower, with a decline of net weight from 12 to 10.5 ounces, without any reduction in price. There were still twelve biscuits, but they had been reduced in size. Later, the Senator rightly complained of a store bought pie in a handsomely illustrated box that pictured, in a single slice, almost as many cherries as there were in the whole pie.The manufacturer who increases the unit price of his product by changing his package size to lower the quantity delivered can, without undue hardship, put h is product into boxes, bags, and tins that will contain even 4 ounce, 8 ounce, one pound, two pound quantities of breakfast foods, cake mixes, etc. A study of drugstore(杂货店) and supermarket shelves will convince any observer that all possible size and shapes of boxes, jars, bottles, and tins are in use at the same time, and, as the package journals show, week by week, there is never any hesitation in introducing a new size and shape of box or bottle when it aids in pro duct differentiation. The producers of packaged products argue strongly against changing sizes of packages to contain even weights and volumes, but no one in the trade comments unfavorably on the huge costs incurred by endless changes of package sizes, materials, shape, art work, and net weights that are used for improving a product's market position.When a packaging expert explained that he was able to multiply the price of hard sweets by 2.5,from 1 dollar to 2.50 dollars by changing to a fancy jar, or that he had made a 5 ounce bottle look as thought it held 8 ounces, he was in effect telling the public that packaging can be a very expensive luxury. It evidently does come high, when an average family pays about 200 dollars a year for bottles, cans, boxes, jars and other containers, most of which can't be used anything but stuffing the garbage can.31. What started the public and Congressional concern about deceptive packaging rumpus?A) Consumers' complaints about the changes in the package size.B) Expensive packaging for poor quality products.C) A senator's discovery of the tricks in packaging.D) The rise in the unit price for many products.。

Rich and poor，young and old，one can see them all there，shouting for one side or the other.To a stranger，one of the most surprising things about football in England is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. He has pictures of them and knows the results of large numbers of matches. He will tell you who he expects will win such a match，and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times his age.Most schools in England take football seriously—much more seriously than nearly all European schools，where lessons are all that are important，and games are left for the children themselves. In England，it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boy’s mind with facts in classroom，it also means the training of character by means of games，especially team games，where the boy or girl has to learn to work with others for the team instead of working for himself or herself alone. The school therefore plays games and matches for its pupils. Football is a good team game；it is good for both body and mind. That is why it is every school’s game in England.31．In paragraph 1，“this ”m eans .A．people often shout at each other in a football matchB．people，rich and poor，young and old，often play footballC．football is the most popular game in EnglandD．people usually go to the important matches32．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？A．English children have more knowledge of football than adults.B．Nearly all European schools consider lessons the most important.C．It is surprising that English children have great knowledge of football.D．English schools attach more importance to football than nearly all European schools.33．What does education mean in England？A．Filling a boy’mind with facts.B．Teaching how to work with others for the team.C．Training character by means of games.D．More than the teaching of knowledge.34．From the passage，we learn that .A．football is popular mostly among English children.B．schools in England make use of football for the training of body and mind.C．football is more important than lessons in England.D．other European schools consider football unimportant（B）A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That’s the finding of a study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce (盎司）of salt water fish per day compared to those who never ate fish.The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific support to the long held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But previous research has shown that the level of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish.At the start of the study, average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish than fatty fish.During the next two decades, 78% of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.35. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The Dutch research has proved that eating fish can help to prevent heart disease.B. People who regularly eat fish never suffer from hear disease.C. Heart disease causes more deaths in America than any other disease.D. There is a low level of heart disease in such countries as Japan and Greenland.36. The underlined words “lean fish” (paragraph 5) roughly mean “_______”.A. large fishB. fresh fishC. fish that live in salt waterD. fish that have little fat37. The passage is mainly about _________.A. the high incidence of heart disease in some countriesB. the effect of fish eating on people’s healthC. the changes in people’s dietD. the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures38. The phrase “this relationship” (para graph 6) refers to the connection between _______ and the level of heart disease.A. the amount of fish eatenB. regular fish-eatingC. the kind of fish eatenD. people of different areas（C）For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants (污染物) can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is said that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building-green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb (吸取) or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and small organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.39. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because _______.A.indoor air pollution can often make people seriously illB.man-made building materials give off dangerous gasesC.there may be more harmful gases outside the buildingsD.the flow of air indoors is limited, which is very harmful40. Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in ________.A. every modern houseB. every old houseC. all kinds of housesD.all kinds of offices41. The indoor air pollution is caused by ________.A.the limit of the flow of air between inside and outsideB.the building way that the builders want to save energyC.the building things that are made of man-made materialsD.the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow42. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ________.A.plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoorsB.plants may take in more oxygen which people needC.plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicalsE.plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy（D）New York: When the first plane struck 1 World Trade Center at 8:48 am on Tuesday, the people in 2 World Trade Center who saw the instant (瞬间的) damage to the other tower realized clearly what they, too, must do: get out fast.Katherine Ilachinsiki, who had been knocked off her chair by the blast (一阵)of heat exploding from the neighboring tower, was one of those. Despite her 70 years of age, Mrs Ilachinsiki, an architect working on the 91st floor of 2 World Trade Center, the south tower, went for the stairs. Twelve floors above her, Judy Wein, an executive (经理), cried sharply and set off too.But others up and down the 110 floors, many without seeing the damage across the way and thus unclear about what was happening, were not so sure. And the 18 minutes before the next plane would hit were ticking off.Most people had no idea about what was the best thing to do, formal announcements inside the south tower asked people to stay put, assuring (使……确信) them that the building was sound and the threat (威胁)waslimited to the other tower.Some left, others stayed. Some began to climb down and, when met with more announcements and other cautions (警告) to stop or return, went back up. The decisions made in those instants proved to be of great importance, because many who chose to stay were killed completely when the second plane crashed (坠落，碰撞) into the south tower.One of those caught in indecision (踌躇不决) was the executive at Fuji Bank USA.Richard Jacobs of Fuji Bank left the 79th floor with the other office workers, but on the 48th floor they heard the announcement that the situation was under control. Several got in the lifts and went back up, two minutes or so before the plane crashed into their floor.“I just don’t know what happened to them,” Mr Jacobs said.43. From the passage, we know that the south tower was hit by the plane ________.A. at 8:30B. 18 minutes earlier than the north towerC. at around 9:06D. at 8:4844. The underlined words “stay put” means ________.A. stay in the buildingB. leave at onceC. put everything back and then leaveD. keep silent45. Which floor was hit by the second plane?A. The 91st floorB. The 103rd floorC. The 60th floorD. The 79th floor46. Fewer people would have died if ________.A. more announcements had been madeB. people hadn’t used the liftsC. the attack had happened on a weekendD. the people had obeyed the office rules（E）Paloalto, California—“Turning off the television may help prevent children from getting fatter—even if they do not change their diet,” US researchers said last week.A study of 192 third and fourth graders, generally aged eight and nine found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television increased nearly two pounds (0.91kg) less over a one-year period than those who did not change their television diet.“The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the resul t of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity,” said Thomas Robinson, a pediatrician (儿科专家) at Stanford University. “American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos or playing video game s. And rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years,” Robinsin said.In the study presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies annual meeting in San Francisco, the researchers persuaded about 100 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third. Children watching fewer hours of television showed a much smaller increase in waist (腰) size and had less body fat than other students who continued their normal television viewing, even though neither group ate a special diet nor took part in any extra exercise.“One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around more and burning off calories,” Robinson said. “Another reason might b e eating fewer meals in front of the television. Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more,” Robinson said.47. The report tells us that children will get fatter if they ________.A. eat in front of the TVB. change their dietC. do special exercisesD. spend much time watching TV48. According to the report, the time American children usually spend on watching TV and videos or playingvideo games ________.A. is four hours a day or moreB. is less than four hours a dayC. has doubled in the last 20 yearsD. has been reduced to one-quarter49. The time some children were persuaded to spend on TV viewing every day was less than ____.A. one hourB. two hoursC. three hoursD. four hours50. Watching TV wil l increase kid’s weight because ________.A.they usually eat more and move lessB.they no longer take part in outdoor activitiesC.they will not burn off caloriesD.they will enjoy having meals in front of the television第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）一方面，请阅读下列的应用文：请阅读以下5人的个人信息，然后匹配人物和适合他们住的地方：51.

Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched, mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop . She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors." "Yes. I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them," the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, "But aren't you working late?" Mum just pushed harder, each swipe of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum nodded politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, Mum told me: "Dagmar is fine. No fever." "You saw her,Mum?" "Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."21. When she took a mop from the small room what Mum really wanted to do was ______.[A] to clean the floor [B] to please the nurse[C] to see a patient [D] to surprise the story-teller22. When the nurse talked to Mum she thought Mum was a _______.[A] nurse [B] visitor [C] patient [D] cleaner23. After reading the story what can we infer about the hospital?[A] It is a children's hospital. [B] It has strict rules about visiting hours.[C] The nurses and doctors there don't work hard.[D] A lot of patients come to this hospital every day.24. Why did Mother go to see Dagmar in the hospital?[A] To give her some message about Dad. [B] To make sure her room was clean.[C] To check that she was still there. [D] To find out how she was.25. Which of the following words best describes Mum?[A] polite [B] patient [C] changeable [D] clever Passage TwoLong after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the disputed refereeing decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.The researcher organized an experimental tournament involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.Observers noted down the referees' errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number. The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyse the matches in detail.Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum distance is about 20 meters. There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.If FIFA, football's international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues. He also says that FIFA's insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.26. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to _______.A) review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World CupB) analyse the causes of errors made by football refereesC) set a standard for football refereeing27. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was _______.A) slightly above average B) higher than in the 1998 World CupC) quite unexpected D) as high as in a standard match28. The findings of the experiment show that _______.A) errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ballB) the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errorsC) the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occurD) errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot29. The word "officials" (Line 2, Para. 4) most probably refers to _______.A) the researchers involved in the experimentB) the inspectors of the football tournamentC) the referees of the football tournamentD) the observers at the site of the experiment30. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?A) The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.B) Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.C) A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.D)An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.Passage ThreeIt is said that the public and Congressional concern about deceptive(欺骗性的) packaging rumpus(喧嚣) started because Senator Hart discovered that the boxes of cereals consumed by him, Mrs. Hart, and their children were becoming higher and narrower, with a decline of net weight from 12 to 10.5 ounces, without any reduction in price. There were still twelve biscuits, but they had been reduced in size. Later, the Senator rightly complained of a store bought pie in a handsomely illustrated box that pictured, in a single slice, almost as many cherries as there were in the whole pie.The manufacturer who increases the unit price of his product by changing his package size to lower the quantity delivered can, without undue hardship, put h is product into boxes, bags, and tins that will contain even 4ounce, 8ounce, one pound, two pound quantities of breakfast foods, cake mixes, etc. A study of drugstore(杂货店) and supermarket shelves will convince any observer that all possible size and shapes of boxes, jars, bottles, and tins are in use at the same time, and, as the package journals show, week by week, there is never any hesitation in introducing a new size and shape of box or bottle when it aids in pro duct differentiation. The producers of packaged products argue strongly against changing sizes of packages to contain even weights and volumes, but no one in the trade comments unfavorably on the huge costs incurred by endless changes of package sizes, materials, shape, art work, and net weights that are used for improving a product's market position.When a packaging expert explained that he was able to multiply the price of hard sweets by 2.5,from 1 dollar to 2.50 dollars by changing to a fancy jar, or that he had made a 5ounce bottle look as thought it held 8 ounces, he was in effect telling the public that packaging can be a very expensive luxury. It evidently does come high, when an average family pays about 200 dollars a year for bottles, cans, boxes, jars and other containers, most of which can't be used anything but stuffing the garbage can.31. What started the public and Congressional concern about deceptive packaging rumpus?A) Consumers' complaints about the changes in the package size.B) Expensive packaging for poor quality products.C) A senator's discovery of the tricks in packaging.D) The rise in the unit price for many products.。

Beluga whale mothers, for example, nurse their calves for some twenty months, until they are about to give birth again and their young are able to find their own food. The behavior of feeding of the young is built into the reproductive system. It is a nonselective part of parental care and the defining feature of a mammal, the most important thing that mammals-- whether marsupials, platypuses, spiny anteaters, or placental mammals -- have in common.But not all animal parents, even those that tend their offspring to the point of hatching or birth, feed their young. Most egg-guarding fish do not, for the simple reason that their young are so much smaller than the parents and eat food that is also much smaller than the food eaten by adults. In reptiles, the crocodile mother protects her young after they have hatched and takes them down to the water, where they will find food, but she does not actually feed them. Few insects feed their young after hatching, but some make other arrangement, provisioning their cells and nests with caterpillars and spiders that they have paralyzed with their venom and stored in a state of suspended animation so that their larvae might have a supply of fresh food when they hatch.For animals other than mammals, then, feeding is not intrinsic to parental care. Animals add it to their reproductive strategies to give them an edge in their lifelong quest for descendants. The most vulnerable moment in any animal's life is when it first finds itself completely on its own, when it must forage and fend for itself. Feeding postpones that moment until a young animal has grown to such a size that it is better able to cope. Young that are fed by their parents become nutritionally independent at a much greater fraction of their full adult size. And in the meantime those young are shielded against the vagaries of fluctuating of difficult-to-find supplies. Once a species does take the step of feeding its young, the young become totally dependent on the extra effort. If both parents are removed, the young generally do no survive.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The care that various animals give to their offspring.B. The difficulties young animals face in obtaining food.C. The methods that mammals use to nurse their young.D. The importance among young mammals of becoming independent.2. The author lists various animals in line 5 toA. contrast the feeding habits of different types of mammalsB. describe the process by which mammals came to be definedC. emphasize the point that every type of mammal feeds its own youngD. explain why a particular feature of mammals is nonselective3.

It is unknown among fish.B. It is unrelated to the size of the young.C. It is dangerous for the parents.D. It is most common among mammals.5. The word "provisioning" in line 13 is closest in meaning toA. supplyingB. preparingC. buildingD. expanding6. According to the passage, how do some insects make sure their young have food?A. By storing food near their young.B. By locating their nests or cells near spiders and caterpillars.C. By searching for food some distance from their nest.D. By gathering food from a nearby water source.7. The word "edge" in line 17 is closest in meaning toA. opportunityB. advantageC. purposeD. rest8. The word "it" in line 20 refers toA.

According to the passage, animal young are most defenseless whenA. their parents are away searching for foodB. their parents have many young to feedC. they are only a few days oldD. they first become independent10. The word "shielded" in line 22 is closest in meaning toA. raisedB. protectedC. hatchedD. valuedQuestion 11-21:Printmaking is the generic term for a number of processes, of which woodcut and engraving are two prime examples. Prints are made by pressing a sheet of paper (or other material) against an image-bearing surface to which ink has been applied. When the paper is removed, the image adheres to it, but in reverse.The woodcut had been used in China from the fifth century A.D. for applying patterns to textiles. The process was not introduced into Europe until the fourteenth century, first for textile decoration and then for printing on paper. Woodcuts are created by a relief process; first, the artist takes a block of wood, which has been sawed parallel to the grain, covers it with a white ground, and then draws the image in ink. The background is carved away, leaving the design area slightly raised. The woodblock is inked, and the ink adheres to the raised image. It is then transferred to damp paper either by hand or with a printing press.Engraving, which grew out of the goldsmith's art, originated in Germany and northern Italy in the middle of the fifteenth century. It is an intaglio process (from Italian intagliare, "to carve"). The image is incised into a highly polished metal plate, usually copper, with a cutting instrument, or burin. The artist inks the plate and wipes it clean so that some ink remains in the incised grooves. An impression is made on damp paper in a printing press, with sufficient pressure being applied so that the paper picks up the ink.Both woodcut and engraving have distinctive characteristics. Engraving lends itself to subtle modeling and shading through the use of fine lines. Hatching and cross-hatching determine the degree of light and shade in a print. Woodcuts tend to be more linear, with sharper contrasts between light and dark. Printmaking is well suited to the production of multiple images. A set of multiples is called an edition. Both methods can yield several hundred good-quality prints before the original block or plate begins to show signs of wear.

Sometimes early in the first millennium A.D., however, they began to cultivate corn and other crops. Gradually, as they became more skilled at gardening, they settled into permanent villages and developed a rich culture, characterized by the great earthen mounds they erected as monuments to their gods and as tombs for their distinguished dead. Most of these early mound builders were part of the Adana-Hopewell culture, which had its beginnings near the Ohio River and takes its name from sites in Ohio. The culture spread southward into the present-day states of Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. Its peoples became great traders, bartering jeweler, pottery, animal pelts, tools, and other goods along extensive trading networks that stretched up and down eastern North America and as far west as the Rocky Mountains.About A.D. 400, the Hopewell culture fell into decay. Over the next centuries, it was supplanted by another culture, the Mississippian, named after the river along which many of its earliest villages were located. This complex civilization dominated the Southeast from about A.D. 700 until shortly before the Europeans began arriving in the sixteenth century. At the peak of its strength, about the year 1200, it was the most advanced culture in North America. Like their Hopewell predecessors, the Mississippians became highly skilled at growing food, although on a grander scale. They developed an improved strain of corn, which could survive in wet soil and a relatively cool climate, and also learned to cultivate beans. Indeed, agriculture became so important to the Mississippians that it became closely associated with the Sun --- the guarantor of good crops. Many tribes called themselves "children of the Sun" and believed their omnipotent priest-chiefs were descendants of the great sun god.Although most Mississippians lived in small villages, many others inhabited large towns. Most of these towns boasted at least one major flat-topped mound on which stood a temple that contained a sacred flame. Only priests and those charged with guarding the flame could enter the temples. The mounds also served as ceremonial and trading sites, and at times they were used as burial grounds.22. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The development of agricultureB. The locations of towns and villagesC. The early people and cultures of the United StatesD. The construction of burial mounds23. Which of the following resulted from the rise of agriculture in the southeastern United States?A. The development of trade in North AmericaB. The establishment of permanent settlementsC. Conflicts with other Native American groups over landD. A migration of these peoples to the Rocky Mountains.24. What does the term "Adana-Hopewell"(line 7) designate?A.

According to the passage, the flat-topped mounds in Mississippian towns were used for all of the following purposes EXCEPTA. religious ceremoniesB. meeting places for the entire communityC. sites for commerceD. burial sitesQuestion 32-40:Overland transport in the United States was still extremely primitive in 1790. Roads were few and short, usually extending from inland communities to the nearest river town or seaport. Nearly all interstate commerce was carried out by sailing ships that served the bays and harbors of the seaboard. Yet, in 1790 the nation was on the threshold of a new era of road development. Unable to finance road construction, states turned for help to private companies, organized by merchants and land speculators who had a personal interest in improved communications with the interior. The pioneer in this move was the state of Pennsylvania, which chartered a company in 1792 to construct a turnpike, a road for the use of which a toll, or payment, is collected, from Philadelphia to Lancaster. The legislature gave the company the authority to erect tollgates at points along the road where payment would be collected, though it carefully regulated the rates. (The states had unquestioned authority to regulate private business in this period.)The company built a gravel road within two years, and the success of the Lancaster Pike encouraged imitation. Northern states generally relied on private companies tobuild their toll roads, but Virginia constructed a network at public expense. Such was the road building fever that by 1810 New York alone had some 1,500 miles of turnpikes extending from the Atlantic to Lake Erie.Transportation on these early turnpikes consisted of freight carrier wagons and passenger stagecoaches. The most common road freight carrier was the Conestoga wagon, a vehicle developed in the mid-eighteenth century by German immigrants in the area around Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It featured large, broad wheels able to negotiate all but the deepest ruts and holes, and its round bottom prevented the freight from shifting on a hill. Covered with canvas and drawn by four to six horses, the Conestoga wagon rivaled the log cabin as the primary symbol of the frontier. Passengers traveled in a variety of stagecoaches, the most common of which had four benches, each holding three persons. It was only a platform on wheels, with no springs; slender poles held up the top, and leather curtains kept out dust and rain. 32. Paragraph 1 discusses early road building in the United States mainly in terms of theA. popularity of turnpikesB. financing of new roadsC. development of the interiorD. laws governing road use33. The word "primitive" in line 1 is closest in meaning toA. unsafeB. unknownC. inexpensiveD. undeveloped34. In 1790 most roads connected towns in the interior of the country withA. other inland communitiesB. towns in other statesC. river towns or seaportsD. construction sites35.

The states were not as well equipped as private companies.C. Private companies could complete roads faster than the states.D. Private companies had greater knowledge of the interior.37. The word "it" in line 11 refers toA. legislatureB. companyC. authorityD. payment38. The word "imitation" in line 14 is closest in meaning toA. investmentB. suggestionC. increasingD. copying39. Virginia is mentioned as an example of a state thatA. built roads without tollgatesB. built roads with government moneyC. completed 1,500 miles of turnpikes in one yearD. introduced new law restricting road use40. The "large, broad wheels" of the Conestoga wagon are mentioned in line 21 as an example of a feature of wagons that wasA. unusual in mid-eighteenth century vehiclesB. first found in GermanyC. effective on roads with uneven surfacesD. responsible for frequent damage to freightQuestion 41- 50:In Death Valley, California, one of the hottest, most arid places in North America, there is much salt, and salt can damage rocks impressively. Inhabitants of areas elsewhere, where streets and highways are salted to control ice, are familiar with the resulting rust and deterioration on cars. That attests to the chemically corrosive nature of salt, but it is not the way salt destroys rocks. Salt breaks rocks apart principally by a process called crystal prying and wedging. This happens not by soaking the rocks in salt water, but by moistening their bottoms with salt water. Such conditions exist in many areas along the eastern edge of central Death Valley. There, salty water rises from the groundwater table by capillary action through tiny spaces in sediment until it reaches the surface.Most stones have capillary passages that suck salt water from the wet ground. Death Valley provides an ultra-dry atmosphere and high daily temperatures, which promote evaporation and the formation of salt crystals along the cracks or other openings within stones. These crystals grow as long as salt water is available. Like tree rootsbreaking up a sidewalk, the growing crystals exert pressure on the rock and eventually pry the rock apart along planes of weakness, such as banding in metamorphic rocks, bedding in sedimentary rocks, or preexisting or incipient fractions, and along boundaries between individual mineral crystals or grains. Besides crystal growth, the expansion of halite crystals(the same as everyday table salt) by heating and of sulfates and similar salts by hydration can contribute additional stresses. A rock durable enough to have withstood natural conditions for a very long time in other areas could probably be shattered into small pieces by salt weathering within a few generations. The dominant salt in Death Valley is halite, or sodium chloride, but other salts, mostly carbonates and sulfates, also cause prying and wedging, as does ordinary ice. Weathering by a variety of salts, though often subtle, is a worldwide phenomenon. Not restricted to arid regions, intense salt weathering occurs mostly in salt-rich places like the seashore, near the large saline lakes in the Dry Valleys of Antarctica, and in desert sections of Australia, New Zealand, and central Asia.41. What is the passage mainly about?A. The destructive effects of salt on rocks.B. The impressive salt rocks in Death Valley.C. The amount of salt produced in Death Valley.D. The damaging effects of salt on roads and highways.42. The word "it" in line 9 refers toA. salty waterB. groundwater tableC. capillary actionD. sediment43. The word "exert" in line 14 is closest in meaning toA. putB. reduceC. replaceD. control44. In lines 13-17, why does the author compare tree roots withgrowing salt crystals?A. They both force hard surfaces to crack.B. They both grow as long as water is available.C. They both react quickly to a rise in temperature.D. They both cause salty water to rise from the groundwater table.45. In lines 17-18, the author mentions the "expansion of halitecrystals...by heating and of sulfates and similar salts by hydration"in order toA. present an alternative theory about crystal growthB. explain how some rocks are not affected by saltC. simplify the explanation of crystal prying and wedgingD. introduce additional means by which crystals destroy rocks46. The word "durable" in line 19 is closest in meaning toA. largeB. strongC. flexibleD. pressured47. The word "shattered" in line 20 is closest in meaning toA. arrangedB. dissolvedC. broken apartD. gathered together48. The word "dominant" in line 22 is closest in meaning toA. most recentB. most commonC. least availableD. least damaging49. According to the passage, which of the following is true about theeffects of salts on rocks?A. Only two types of salts cause prying and wedging.B. Salts usually cause damage only in combination with ice.C. A variety of salts in all kinds of environments can cause weathering.D.

They are protected from weathering.B. They do not allow capillary action of water.C. They show similar kinds of damage as rocks in Death Valley.D.

Ecologists use the term “succession ”to refer to the changes that happen in plant communities and ecosystems over time. The first community in a succession is called a pioneer community, while the long-lived community at the end of succession is called a a climax community. Pioneer and successional plant communitiesare said to change over periods from 1 to 500 years. These changes in plant numbers and the mix of species are cumulative. Climax communities themselves change but over periods of time greater than about 500 years.An ecologist who studies a pond today may well find it relatively unchanged in a year’stime. Individual fish may be replaced, but the number of fish may tend to be the same from one year to the next. We can say that the properties of an ecosystem are more stable than the individual organisms that compose the ecosystem.At one time. Ecologists believed that species diversity made ecosystem stable. They believed that the greater the diversity the more stable the ecosystem. Support for this idea came from observation that long-lasting climax communities usually have more complex food webs and more species diversity than pioneer communities. Ecologist concluded that the apparent stability of climax ecosystems depended on their complexity. To take an extreme example, farmlands dominated by a singe crop are so unstable that one year of bad weather or the invasion of a single pest can destroy their entire crop. In contrast, a complex climax community , such as a temperate forest, will tolerate considerable damage from bad weather or pests.The question of ecosystem stability is complicated, however. The first problem is that ecologist don’tall agree what “stability “means . Stability can be all defined as simply lack of change. In that case, the climax community would be considered the most stable, since, by definition, it changes the least over time. Alternatively, stability can be defined as the speed with which an ecosystem returns to a particular form following a major disturbance, such as a fire. This kind of stability is also called resilience . In that case, climax community would be the most fragile and the least stable, since they can acquire hundreds of years to return to the complex state.Even the kind of stability defined as simple lack of change is not always associated with maximum diversity. At least in temperate zones, maximum diversity is often found in mid-successional stages, not in the climax community. Once a redwood forest matures, for example, the kinds of species and the number of individuals growing on the forest floor are reduced. In general, diversity, by itself, does not ensure stability. Mathematical models of ecosystems likewise suggest that diversity does not guarantee ecosystem stability- just the opposite, in fact. A more complicated system is , in general, more likely than a simple system to break down. (A fifteen-speed racing bicycle is more likely to break down than a child’s tricycle）Ecologists are especially interested in knowing what factors contribute to the resilience of communities because climax communities all over the world are being severely damaged or destroyed by human activities. The destruction caused by volcanic explosion of Mount. St. Helens, in the northwestern United States, for example , pales in comparison to theconstruction cause by humans. We need to know what aspects of community are most important to the community ’sresistance to destruction, as well as its recovery.Many ecologists now think that the relative long-term stability of climax communities comes not from diversity but from the “patchiness”of the environment. An environment that varies from place to place supports more kinds of organisms than an environment that is uniform. A local population that goes extinct is quickly replaced by immigrants from an adjacent community. Even if the new population is of a different species, it can approximately fill the niche vacated by the extinct population and keep the food web intact.2 According to paragraph 1, which of the following is not true of climax communities?A They occur at the end of a succession.B They last longer than any other type of community.C The numbers of plants in them and the mix of species do not change.D They remain stable for at least 500 years at a time.3 According to paragraph 2, which of the following principles of ecosystems can be learned by studying a pond?A Ecosystem properties change more slowly than individuals in the system.B The stability of an ecosystem tends to change as individuals are replace.C Individual organisms are stable from one year to the next.D A change in the numbers of an organism does not affect tan ecosystem’properties.4 According to paragraph 3, ecologist once believed that which of the following illustrated the most stable ecosystems?A Pioneer communitiesB Climax communitiesC Single-crop farmlandsD Successional plant communities5 According to paragraph 4, why is the question of ecosystem stability complicated?A The reasons for ecosystem change are not always clear.B Ecologists often confuse the word“stability ”with the word “resilience”.C The exact meaning of the word“stability ”is debated by ecologists.D There are many different answers to the ecological questions.6 According to paragraph 4, which of the following is true about climax community?A They are more resilient than pioneer communities.B They can be considered both the most and the least stable communities.C They are stable because they recover quickly after major disturbances.D They are the most resilient communities because they change the least over time.7 Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 5 about redwood forest?A They become less stable as they mature.B They support many species when they reach climax.C They are found in temperate zones.9 In paragraph 5, why does the author provide the information that “a A fifteen-speed racing bicycle is more likely to break down than a child’stricycle”?A To illustrate a general principle about the stability of systems by using an every-day example.B To demonstrate that an understanding of stability in ecosystem can be applied to help understand stability in other situations.C To make a comparison that supports the claim that, in general, stability increases with diversity.D To provide an example that contradicts mathematical models of ecosystems.11 which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.A Ecologists now thinks that the stability of an environment is a result of diversity rather than patchiness.B Patchy environments that vary from place to place do not often have high species diversity.C Uniform environments can’tbe climax communities because they do not support as many types of organisms as patchy environments.D A patchy environment is thought to increase stability because it is able to support awide variety of organisms.Writing （30 分）Some people think that strict punishments for driving offences are the key to reducing traffic accidents.
