Ⅰ卷（选择题共70分）第一节阅读理解（每题2分共40分）AOn the night of November 14, 1978, a six-year-old Korean boy was flying to the United States. All he knew was that he was on a plane heading for somewhere. The plane landed at Kennedy International Airport, where he was greeted by a family. This young boy was me.I have grown up in a town where there were few Asians, so I stuck out in the crowd. I made friends quickly and they treated me just like anyone else. You may ask if anyone made fun of my appearance. Well, of course, I met that kind of person. I just shrugged it off.As an adopted child, I have something that others don't have.I have had the benefit of two families. I'm lucky to have got a chance to start a new life. But we must try never to forget our past. Some day I will go back to Korea to find out what kind of culture I left behind.There is only one thing that I regret about being adopted. When I argue with my parents and they realize they are losing the argument, they sometimes wonder what I would be doing if I was back in Korea. I don't understand this because I thought the purpose of adopting someone was to give them a better chance of growing up in a family. Some day when I am older, I want to adopt a girl and raise her the way my parents have raised me, but I would do it better, for I know what went well and what did not. 21. We learn that when the writer was on the way to his new family,.A.he was with his own parentsB.he was very happy and excitedC.he was about ten years old thenD.he didn't know he was going to be adopted22. If someone sticks out in the crowd, it means that he/she.A.is very good-lookingB.is very kindheartedC.is easily noticed by othersD.is disliked by others1页23. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A.The writer wants to forget his past.B.The writer isn't sad about being adopted.C.The writer isn't interested in Korean culture.D.The writer doesn't know anything about Korea.24. What does the writer want to do when he is older?A. Go back to live with his parents in Korea.B. Tell his parents what they have done wrong.C. Find out how to raise children in a better way.D. Adopt a girl and raise her in a good way.BWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition "depending on who needs it".Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all. Simard talks about "mother trees", usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down "mother trees" with no awareness of these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest."We didn't take any notice of it" Simard says sadly. "Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance." If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.25. The underlined sentence "the opposite is true" in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees _________.pete for survivalB.protect their own wealthC.depend on each otherD.provide support for dying trees26. "Mother trees" are extremely important becausethey__________.A.look the largest in size in the forestB.pass on nutrition to young trees2页C.seem more likely to be cut down by humansD.know more about the complex "tree societies"27. The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refers to_______.A.how "tree societies" workB.how trees grow oldC.how forestry industry developsD.how young trees survive28.

Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family.If your child talks on the family’ s telephone for too long,tell him he can talk for 15 minutes,but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time.This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls,but teaches your teenager moderation(节制). Or if you are open to the idea,allow your teenager has his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.32.

The other is that students with second-hand books are not necessarily busy taking notes in class because the former of the books have done so in detail.Furthermore,it is easier for the students to answer the teacher’ s questions without making an effort to do the exercises by themselves.38 . First,some of the second-hand books cannot be kept carefully,then a broken book will probably dampen their learning spirits; second,the students may rely too much on the answers which already exist in the textbooks,which will make them become lazy. 39 .In my opinion,I prefer new books to second-hand ones.40 .A. that were popular among the freshmenB.
