Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

“De-extinction”,the idea that extinct(绝种的) animals can be brought back through cloning or genetic(基因的) engineering,has attracted the interest of a small group of scientists.The topic had made the cover of National Geographic Magazine.Supporters say they are doing it for moral reasons and because we “miss”the extinct animals.They blame human exploitation(such as trapping,hunting,habitat destruction) of the extinct animals,but their plans,though they sound exciting,are exploitation in another form.

Considering the imperfect science of cloning,de-extinction would cause animals suffering.Most animals born of such experiments would suffer serious diseases,dying soon after birth or having a shortened lifetime.Spanish and French scientists worked for years to bring the Pyrenean ibex,a species of wild goat,back from extinction by cloning.In 2009,they succeeded only in producing a sick baby goat that died 10 minutes after birth.For these animals to be born,other animals would live in captivity,in a lab or elsewhere,and serve as mother substitutes(代用品),routinely having operations as part of the cloning process.For example,elephants would be kept in captivity to carry woolly mammoth(猛犸) babies for nearly two years.Such experiments often lead to other animals’ unhappiness as well.

If extinct animals are successfully brought back,where would they go?Their original habitats have developed and changed without them.They are unlikely to survive in the natural environment,but,if they do manage to survive,they will affect their environment in unpredictable ways,presenting a new threat to the ecological system.If the animals born through de-extinction are stuck in zoos and museums instead,what good is that?It is exploitation,not a solution.

It would be better to apply creative thinking about protection to the real-life problems of today’s world.De-extinction takes attention away from the difficult situation of endangered animals.Discussions about woolly mammoth cloning do nothing to stop the illegal killings of endangered wild African elephants.Money would be better used to prevent human conflict with wildlife and their ecosystems.

Let’s keep de-extinction in the world of science fiction,learn from our failed past,and protect wild animals and their habitats for the future.

1.The underlined word “it”in Paragraph 1 refers to “”.

A.de-extinction

B.cloning or genetic engineering

C.exploitation

D.National Geographic Magazine

2.In Paragraph 2,examples are given to show that .

A.modern elephants are related to woolly mammoth

B.scientists should improve the cloning process

C.de-extinction does harm to some animals

D.it’s possible to bring back extinct animals

3.What might happen if extinct animals come back to the wild?

A.The problem of extinction will be solved.

B.They will live in their original habitats.

C.The balance of nature may be disturbed.

D.More endangered animals will be saved.

4.According to Paragraph 4,de-extinction may .

A.prevent the illegal killings of African elephants

B.make people care less about endangered animals

C.prevent the conflict between humans and animals

D.raise public awareness of protecting animals

B

Autumn means different things to different people.“It all depends on your personality,”said British naturalist Richard Mabey.“Personality shapes your view of the season,”he said.“You may see it as a fading-away,a packing-up(结束),or as a time of packing in another sense—the exciting gathering of resources before a long journey.”

If this is true,perhaps it tells us a little about,for instance,Thomas Hood,the 19th Century English poet.About November,he wrote:

No w armth,no cheerfulness,no healthful ease

No shade,no shine,no butterflies,no bees

No v ember!

On the other hand,another English poet John Keats,already sensing he was seriously ill,was inspired by a late September day to pen one of the most famous poems in the English language,To Autumn.He wrote to a friend afterwards that there was something comforting and healing about it.

According to Richard Mabey,Keats has the biological evidence on his side.Autumn is not a time of slowing down,but a time of new beginnings and great movements of creatures.For example,just at the moment that Keats’s “gathering swallows”(in To Autumn) are departing for Africa,millions of creatures are fleeing from the frozen north like Iceland,Greenland and Russia to winter along the east and south coasts of Britain.According to scientists,before falling,the leaves transfer their chlorophyll(叶绿素) and carbohydrates into the woody parts of the tree for safe-keeping over winter.What remains is the natural antioxidants(防老剂) in the leaves:the yellow and orange carotenoids(类胡萝卜素),and another protective chemical specially produced for autumn,the bright-red anthocyanin(花青素).High color is not a signal of deterioration(退化) and decline,but of detox(排毒的) ability and good health.

A century after Keats,the American poet Loren Eiseley wrote in his journal:“Suppose we saw ourselves burning like maples in a golden autumn.And that we could break up like autumn leaves...dropping their substance like chlorophyll.Would not our attitude towards death be different?”

5.From Thomas Hood’s poem,we may infer that .

A.he suffered a lot from cold November

B.he missed the shining summer days very much

C.he had a negative attitude towards autumn

D.he enjoyed butterflies and bees very much

6.In autumn,leaves turn yellow before falling because .

A.they can’t bear the freezing

B.they can’t get enough water from the wood part

C.chlorophyll and carbohydrates have been lost through leaves

D.chlorophyll and carbohydrates have come back to the wood part

7.Which word can best describe Loren Eiseley’s attitude towards autumn?

A.Fearful. B.Optimistic.

C.Doubtful. D.Realistic.

8.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?

A.Man can never live long,just as leaves must leave the tree annually.

B.Man is different from autumn leaves,which will come again the next spring.

C.Man should have a positive attitude towards death,quite different from autumn leaves. D.Man should treat death calmly,just as autumn leaves fall to the ground.

Ⅱ.七选五

Technology has enabled people to connect fast and across vast distances. 9 Therefore,it

is important to find ways to communicate with more value and be more genuine,while still keeping pace with the demands of the modern day.

1.Cut back on texting.Texting is a good way of keeping in touch and communicating with another person if calling them is not possible.Unless you can’t help it,give up the habit of texting—while walking,eating or driving—because texting is not real communication. 10 Calling is a great way of enhancing conversations because it’s more direct,with a greater chance of successful communication.

2.11 We are more willing to spend time on Facebook than actually turn away from our desks and have a conversation with the person working right next to us.A good way of improving real-time communication is to log off the Internet or log out of your social media.

3.Meet people face to face.The next time you open Facebook to catch up with a friend,call them up and meet them instead. 12 Take time to meet with the people who matter to you and you will get a kind of communication and relationship that staring at a screen just can’t provide.

4.Technology is a tool.It is worth remembering that technology is only a tool we have at our disposal. 13 Use social networks to find people,to reconnect with friends,to support a cause and to contribute to the bigger picture in a more substantive manner.

A.Log out.

B.Listen more.

C.However,it has also created barriers around us.

D.Do you find yourself opening it more than necessary?

E.Something as casual as coffee or lunch can help you connect and communicate with them. F.Every once in a while,it’s a good idea to cut back on texting and call people instead. G.We can’t escape the virtual world and nor should we try,but we can choose to use it more intelligently.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A To American visitors, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island —quite a few "No's". There is no pollution, for instance. No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July, and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time. There is no hard liquor on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There are no handguns; only one jail of thirty-five cells in the entire land —an admirable figure, even for a small country of 313,376 people. There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays or Sundays. Since Iceland is situated just under the Arctic Circle, there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter. But thanks to Gulf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures ranging from 34 degrees Fahrenheit to 52 degrees in July. The rules on television, liquor, and guns are the result of governmental decision. But the absence of pollution is due in great part to the fact that Iceland gets its power from the enormous geyser(间歇泉and the thousands of hot springs that come out of the ground. They provide all the energy needed by the country. In fact, Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power. Iceland has been described as a democratic independent country where more fish are caught and more books published per person than anywhere else in the world. The Icelanders have always felt a particular love for literature. They composed their first works in the ninth and tenth centuries AD. These works were poems and tales about the kings, heroes, and heroines of Iceland and Norway. At first the stories were memorized

Yet some people know little about it and some even misunderstand its nature and function. Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to risk of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the ship-owner knows that his ships may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire nor every ship is lost at sea. If these persons each put a small sum into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contribution are known as insured and those who administer the pool of contributions as insurers. The legal basis of all insurance is the policy. This is a printed form of contract on a piece of paper in best quality. It states that every year the insured shall pay a named sum of money, which is called the premium; in return, the insurer will pay a sum of money or compensation for loss if the risk or event insured against actually happens. The premium for an insurance naturally depends upon how likely the risk is to happen, as suggested by past experience. If companies fix their premiums too high, there will be more

With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school. One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2- reach schools and 2- safety schools. At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’re qualified for it. Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information. Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state. Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit application fees to other schools. For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s) of interest. 21.The passage is mainly written to______. A.introduce famous universities in the United Stales B.show some practical ways to apply an ideal college C.advertise for successful applications and advisors D.offer tips to save money on college application fees

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。 A “It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly. No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly. “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Fran k!” Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee dear, pack your things. We'll go to see him.” She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can't go,” she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants. We've got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?” Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank. So he said. “Well, Fee, we won't go. But we must make sure he is taken care of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?” The eyes didn't liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know.” 1. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer. B. The family didn't find out what happened to Frank until three years later. C. The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder. D. Frank didn't want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him.

This trend, which was started by the medical community(医学界)61 a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side 62(effect) such as overweight and heart disease—the very thing the medical community was trying to fight. Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required 63(process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt 64 (remove) from food, the food tastes as if it is missing something. As 65 result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even 66 (bad), the amount of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food 67(be) full of fat and salt; by 68 (eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet. Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be 69 (care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, 70 is not good for the health. 翻译:最近,在食品服务业方面有一种朝着低脂肪和少盐的趋势。这种趋势最初是由医学界发起,用来作为防御心脏病的一种方式,已经产生一些意料之外的副作用,例如,肥胖 和心脏病,这正好是医学界致力去防御的疾病。 脂肪和盐分是每日膳食中的重要部分。我们需要他们去加工处理摄入的食物、有助于伤病的恢复和满足几项人体正常的运作。当脂肪和盐分从食物当中被去除了,食物尝起来 好像有所缺失。结果,人们会吃更多的食物来补偿缺失的东西。甚至更糟糕的是,人们吃 了更多的快餐食品。快餐中脂肪和盐的含量很高;由于吃了更多的快餐,人们会摄入比他 们在饮食中所需要的更多的盐分和脂肪。 通过每日饮食摄入足够的脂肪和盐分会减少在两餐之间吃点心的欲望,而且会提高你的食物的味道。然而,要注意不要摄入过量。跟其他食物一样,我们也有可能会吃太多, 这一点是对我们的健康不利。 61.as 考查介词。根据句意“这一趋势最开始被医学界作为一种治疗心脏病方法”可知这里 表达“作为”之意,所以答案填as。 62.effects 考查名词单复数。有前面的修饰短语some可知这里的side effects应该用复数,所以答案填effects。 63.to process 考查非谓语动词。根据固定短语be required to do sth.“被要求做某事”可知此处答案填to process。

But in recent years psychologists have taken quite a different view. Keith Oatley,Professor of Psychology at Glasgow University,is involved in the research which shows the fundamental importance of emotions. He believes we are very ambivalent about them:we think of our emotions as being unreasonable,but we also consider them as essential to being human.For example,Mr Spock,a character in the television series Star Trek,is superintelligent and he has no emotions at all.However,he is never made captain of the spaceship.Maybe,this is because Mr Spock is not the kind of person you can share your feelings with—a person who shows his emotions. As Professor Oatley points out,our emotions have very important functions,for example,fear.If we cross the road and a car approaches,we usually stop moving or step back.We stop what we are doing,check what we have done and pay very careful attention to the environment.The emotion of fear makes us take this small series of actions which,on average,help preserve our safety. On the other hand,if things are going well and small problems come up,we find we can solve them with the resources we have to hand.As a consequence,we tend to feel happy and usually continue doing the job. Anger is an emotion that tends to occur when someone is preventing us from doing something.Then this small “kit” of reactions enables us to prepare ourselves to be quite aggressive to that person,or to try harder,and so on. Professor Oatley believes emotions generally occur at these important moments in actions.With fear and anger our emotions make us decide to start doing something else,while with happiness they “suggest” we continue what we are already doing. 1.What’s Keith Oatley’s opinion about emotions? A.They affect reasonable thought. B.They get us into trouble. C.They are helpful to us. D.They are reasonable. 2.What does the underlined part “we are very ambivalent about them”in Paragraph 2 mean? A.We have contradictory feelings towards emotions. B.We have similar ideas of emotions.
