Loch Ness, the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles, is twenty four miles long and, at one point, one mile wide. It has an average depth of four hundred and fifty feet and at times drops close to a thousand. It is cold and murky (混沌的), with dangerous currents. In short, it is the perfect place to hide a monster from even the sharpest eyes of science. The Loch Ness Monster, also called Nessie, is supposedly living in this area. The earliest recorded sighting of the Loch Ness Monster was in the biography of Life of St. Columba by Adamnan in the year AD 565. The monster apparently attacked a man who was swimming in the River Ness. The monster didn’t make headlines again until August 27, 1930, when 3 fishermen reported seeing a creature with 20 feet long approaching their boat, throwing water in the air. In 1933, after a new road was built along the edge of the Loch, the number of reports rose suddenly. Early in 1934, Author Grant, a young student, was out on his motorcycle one evening when he almost ran into the monster as it crossed the road. Grant’s description of the thing – small head, long thin neck and tail with a big body, seemed to match the appearance of the plesiosaur (蛇颈龙), an aquatic (水生的) type of dinosaur that has been extinct (已灭绝的) for 65 million years. The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau was formed in 1962 to act as a research organization for information about the creature. Even now, efforts have continued to find the monster. A great deal of information was discovered about the Loch, but there isn’t any yet to produce any specific evidence of a monster. Skeptics (怀疑论者) argue that the water in the Loch is too cold for a plesiosaur to live in. They also argue that an air-breathing animal, like a whale or seal, would spend much more time on the surface than the creature seems to, and would be spotted more often. Some scientists have wondered if the sightings might be caused by an underwater wave which is known to sometimes occur in deep, long, and cold lakes, like Loch Ness. Such a wave might push debris (废弃物) to the surface that might look like a strange animal. However, none of these is identified. 1.According to the skeptics, which of the following is TRUE? A．It is impossible for a monster to live in cold water. B．The Loch Ness Monster often stays under the water. C．The Loch Ness Monster is an air-breathing animal. D．There is no so-called monster in Loch Ness. 2.Which of the following is the correct order for the things that happened in the passage? a. A young student met with a monster crossing the road. b. A swimmer was attacked by a monster in Loch Ness. c. A new road was built along the edge of the Loch. d. The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau was set up. e. Three fishermen saw a creature swimming towards their boat. A．b, e, c, a, d B．a, b, e, d, c C．b, d, a, c, e D．d, c, e, b, a 3.What does this passage mainly talk about? A．The natural scenery of Loch Ness. B．The Nessie. C．Skeptics’ opinions on Loch Ness Monster. D．The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau’s research results.
Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner. Born in September, 1897, Irene Curies was the first of the Curies’ two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sevigne in Paris. Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities (设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognized in the form of a Military Medal by the French government. In 1918, Irene became her mother’s assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later. Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity (辐射能). Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 1956. 1.Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal? A．Because she received a degree in mathematics. B．Because she contributed to saving the wounded. C．Because she won the Nobel Prize with Frederic D．Because she worked as a helper to her mother. 2.Where did Irene Curie meet her husband Frederic Joliot? A．At the Curie Institute. B．At the University of Paris. C．At a military hospital. D．At the College of Sevigne. 3.When was the second child of Irene Curie and Frederic Joliot born? A．In 1932. B．In 1927. C．In 1897. D．In 1926. 4.In which of the following aspects（方面）was Irene Curie different from her mother? A．Irene worked with radioactivity. B．Irene combined family and career. C．Irene won the Nobel Prize once.

We can see the 1) __________ between American English British English but they are different sometimes. Many students want to know about the 2) __________ between American English and British English. At first the language in Britain and America was the same. In 1776 America became a (an) 3) __________ country. After that, the language slowly began to change. For a long time the language in America stayed the same, while the language in England changed. For example, 300 years ago the English talked about "fall". Today, most British people talk about "autumn", but Americans still talk abut "fall". In the same way Americans still use the expression "I guess" 4) __________ "I think", just as the British did 300 years ago. At the same time, British English and American English started borrowing words from other languages, 5) __________ with different words. For example, the British took "typhoon" from Chinese, while the Americans took "tornado" from Spanish. In 1828 Noah Webster published the first American dictionary. He wanted to make American English different from British English, so he changed the spelling of many words. That’s why the words "colour", "centre" and "traveller" are spelt "color", "center" and "traveler" in American English. Except for spelling, written English is more or less the same in both British and American English. They are also different in the spoken language. For example, Americans say dance /dæns/, and in southern England they say /dɑ?ns/. In America they 6) p__________ not /nɑt/; in southern England they say /n?t/. However, most of the time people from the two countries do not have any trouble in understanding each other.

When prehistoric man arrived in new parts of the world, something strong happened to the large animals; they suddenly became extinct. Smaller species survived; the large, slow-growing animals were easy game, and were quickly hunted to extinction. Now something similar could be happening in the oceans. That the seas are being over-fished has been known for years and researchers such as Ransom Myers and Boris Worm have shown how fast things are changing. They have looked at half a century of data from fisheries around the world. Their methods do not attempt to estimate the actual biomass (the amount of living biological matter) of fish species in particular parts of the ocean, but rather changes in that biomass over time. According to their latest paper published in Nature, the biomass of large predators (animals that kill and eat other animals) inanes fishery is reduced on average by 80% within 15 years of the start of exploitation. In some long-fished areas, it has halved again since then. Dr. Worm acknowledges that these figures are conservative (保守的). One reason for this is that fishing technology has improved. Today’s vessels can find their prey using satellites and sonar, which were not available 50 years ago. That means a higher proportion of what is in the sea is being caught, so the real difference between present and past is likely to be worse than the one recorded by changes in catch sizes. In the early days, too, longlines would have been more saturated with fish. Some individuals would therefore not have been caught, since baited hooks would have been available to trap them, leading to an underestimate of fish stocks in the past. Furthermore, in the early days of longline fishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked. That is no longer a problem, because there are fewer sharks around noise. Dr. Myers and Dr. Worm argue that their work gives a correct baseline, which future management efforts must take into account. They believe the date support an idea current among marine biologists, that of the “shifting baseline”. The notion is that people have failed to detect the massive changes which have happened in the ocean because they have been looking back only a relatively short time into the past. That matters because theory suggests that the maximum sustainable yield that can be cropped from a fishery comes when the biomass of a target species is about 50% of its original levels. Most fisheries are well below that, which is a bad way to do business. 1.The aim of the extinction of large prehistoric animals is to suggest that _______. A．large animal were not easy to survive in the changing environment B．small species survived as large animals disappeared C．large sea animals may face the same threat today. D．Slow-growing fish outlive fast-growing ones 2.We can infer from Dr Myers and Dr. Worm’s paper that _______. A．the stock of large predators in some old fisheries has reduced by 90% B．there are only half as many fisheries are there were 15 years ago C．the catch sizes in new fisheries are only 20% of the original amount D．the number of larger predators dropped faster in new fisheries than in the old 3.By saying these figures are conservative (line 1, paragraph 3), Dr worm means that_______. A．fishing technology has improved rapidly B．then catch-sizes are actually smaller then recorded C．the marine biomass has suffered a greater loss D．the date collected so far are out of date. 4.Dr Myers and other researchers hold that _______. A．people should look for a baseline that can’t work for a longer time B．fisheries should keep the yield below 50% of the biomass C．the ocean biomass should restore its original level. D．people should adjust the fishing baseline to changing situation. 5.The author seems to be mainly concerned with most fisheries’ _______. A．management efficiency B．biomass level C．catch-size limits D．technological application.
In the world today, there are millions of surveillance cameras, or “spy cams”, watching and monitoring our daily activities. There are some benefits of course, as people who are breaking laws can be watched and caught using cameras and this helps keep our society and public places safe. These cameras are everywhere and most are openly visible on roads, in airports, businesses, shopping centers and government buildings and even in lifts. Even schools have started using spy cams to watch student activity and behaviour. The cameras are so common now that we hardly ever even notice them. But the problem lies with the ones that are hidden away from our eyes and are unseen. Technology has helped develop tiny cameras that can be very well hidden and they can “spy” on shoppers, workers, babysitters and people in hotels and clubs without the people even knowing. It is these spy cams that people feel are an invasion of privacy. Recently, in the US, there have been a number of court cases against babysitters whose actions have been recorded by their employers on hidden cameras. The number of cameras in public and private areas is on the increase and with rising crime rates and the recent terrorist attacks, more and more surveillance cameras are being used to watch us. This means that we all have to be aware that our employers, department stores, police and even some of our friends could be spying on us at any time! 1.In the writer’s opinion, surveillance cameras _______. . A．do more good than wrong B．are overused C．should be very popular D．ought to be more widely used 2.In what way can the surveillance camera benefit the public? A．By helping keep social safety. B．By monitoring the employees. C．By watching the students in class. D．By spying on customers. 3.According to Paragraphs 3 and 4, people _______ the use of hidden cameras. A．object to B．agree to C．feel happy about D．are fearful of 4.Spy cams will be more widely used in the future because _______. . A．all people want to spy B．of the invasion of privacy C．people enjoy being watched D．of terrorist attacks
“We do look very different; we’re older. Leo’s 38, I’m 37. We were 21 and 22 when we made that film. You know, he’s fatter now -- I’m thinner.” So says Kate Winslet, who is thrilled at the 3-D re-release of Titanic to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the ship’s demise. “It happens every time I get on any boat of any kind." She recalls. There are all the people who want her to walk to the front of the ship and re-create her famous pose, arms flung wide. Most people remember the tragedy: The British passenger ship—said to be unsinkable—hit an iceberg and sank on April 15, 1912, during its maiden voyage from England to New York City. More than 1,500 people died. But little known is what the world learned from the sinking to prevent future incidents. Probably the greatest deficiency (不足) of the Titanic was that she was built 40 years before the widespread use of the wonderful invention radar (雷达). Her only defense against icebergs and hidden obstacles was to rely on manned lookouts. On that fateful night the eyesight of trained lookouts only provided 37 seconds of warning before the collision. Traveling at nearly 30 miles an hour, the Titanic was moving far too fast to avoid the huge iceberg. The warning did prevent a head-on collision as the officer on the bridge managed to turn the ship slightly. The last ship to which it could send an SOS message was the California. She was within ten miles of the Titanic during the disaster, but her radio operator went to bed at midnight and never received any of the SOS messages from the Titanic. That was one of the important lessons learned from the catastrophe, the need for 24-hour radio operators on all passenger liners. Another lesson learned was the need for more lifeboats. The Titanic remained afloat (漂浮) for almost three hours and most of the passengers could have been saved with enough lifeboats. 1,500 passengers and workers died in the 28 degree waters of the Atlantic. Out of the tragedy, the sinking did produce some important maritime reforms. The winter travel routes were changed to the south and the Coast Guard began to keep an eye on the location of all icebergs. The new rules for lifeboats were obvious to all. There must be enough lifeboats for everybody on board. The most important lesson learned was that no one would ever again consider a ship unsinkable—no matter how large or how well constructed. Never again would sailors place their faith in a ship above the power of the sea. 1.The text mainly tells us ______. A．the reason why the Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean B．how the unsinkable ship of Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean C．the lessons that we could learn from the accident of the Titanic D．the things we should do to protect the lives on the ship 2.According to the passage, which of the following could we infer? A．If the captain had been more careful, he could have had the chance to save the Titanic. B．If radar had existed 40 years ago, the Titanic would have never disappeared from the world. C．If the lookout had had much more experience, he could have had the time to save the Titanic. D．If there had been enough lifeboats on the Titanic, the Titanic would not have sunk in the Atlantic. 3.What would be the best title for the passage? A．Lessons from the Titanic B．Technology is Important C．Demands of Passengers D．Power of Sea 4.What’s the sailors’ attitude towards the ships after the tragedy? A．They think there really exists the unsinkable ship. B．They think ships could eventually defeat the sea. C．They think there is no power that could control the sea. D．They think the bigger the ship is, the safer it is.

The passengers on the subway who caught a glimpse of me may have thought I was strange. In particular a gentleman sitting opposite me was always staring at me, looking at the cheese bread on the floor in front of me and then staring back at me. A passenger probably dropped it by mistake and got off at a previous stop, but the gentleman might not think so. “Next stop, St. Patrick Station” — my stop was quickly coming up. I had a few minutes to either take the cheese bread, which nobody else was claiming, or leave it there. In those few minutes I felt my pride getting in the way. “What would others on the subway think of me if I took the cheese bread? Would they think that I was poor and hungry? Would they think that I was stealing?” The ignorant thing to do was say “yes” to any of those self-imposed questions. Actually, they were just my own thoughts. Though I would leave the subway, walk a block to my office, get settled at my desk, and sit comfortably in my office for the whole day, I couldn’t get rid of the enormous sense of guilt and regret. My thoughts once pushed me towards pride and ignorance, but finally I had to admit I was wrong. This missing cheese bread could be a gift for a homeless person who suffered from cold and hunger. So why not overcome a little bit of my pride and pass along so much kindness? Just as the doors opened at my stop, I grabbed the cheese bread and left the subway. It felt awesome, but I didn’t care if people were looking at me or what they were thinking. Instead of going directly to my office as usual, I walked a few more blocks up to Queen’s park, where I often saw a homeless man sitting outside. I always wanted to give him something, but only today I walked toward him, who wrapped himself in a sleeping bag. I was full of satisfaction, and so did the homeless man, I thought. 1.The gentleman kept staring at the author because _______. A．he wanted to talk to the author B．he might think the author dropped the bread C．the author appeared too nervous D．the author was going to get off 2.The underlined word “self-imposed” in paragraph 2 probably means “_______”. A．easily obtained B．strongly supported C．purposely created D．completely unaccepted 3.Why did the author grab the cheese bread when he got off? A．He noticed that no one was looking at him. B．He didn’t want to see the cheese bread to go to waste. C．He remembered a homeless man at that very moment. D．He valued kindness more than his own pride.
