from spreading the virus to others. Like the flu, measles spreads through the air by breathing, coughing or sneezing. There is typically a time, about two weeks, between becoming infected with the virus and the beginning of symptoms like skin rash

With the development of modern industry and expansion of urbanization, pollution is becoming more and more serious.Measures must be taken to balance city development and environmental protection. First of all, our government should make more strict laws to limit the use of private cars. What’s more, we are supposed to raise our awareness of environmental protection and push for the use of alternative energy, such as solar energy and wind energy. Only by applying sustainable development can we have a better world to live in. （150words）附听力原稿：Text 1M: We are going to see most of the ships and the space-station.W: Good!

My son was staying in town and my husband was abroad so it was up to me to decide what to do. I packed a suitcase of clothes. I took my passport and my bankbook and all the money I had.

I could now hear the sound of the fire only a mile or two away.I got into my car and drove down the road. The smoke was thick. Animals were running across the road, trying to escape the fire.

AIn October 2010, I left my hometown and family in Virginia and moved to Iowa so I could be coached by Liang Chow. I'd been dreaming of an Olympic gold medal since I was eight — but gradually, that dream seemed like a million miles away.On January 2, 2012, while Mom was visiting me in Iowa, I told her, “I don't like gymnastics anymore. I want to try dancing, or become a singer. I can get a job in Virginia. I just want to come home.”Mom's eyes narrowed and her expression turned to stone. “You're breaking my heart, Brie,” she said. “You've been doing gymnastics for ten years, and now you want to quit? Have you lost your mind?”I hadn't lost my mind, but I had lost my fire. It's an entirely different thing to push toward that dream when you feel alone.“I'm not trying to break your heart, Mom,” I said. “I just don't want to do it anymore.”“I know you miss home. But you've signed a contract that says you will represent your country to the best of your ability. You've got a responsibility to your teammates. And now you justwant to walk away? I will not let you be dishonorable. If you don't like gymnastics, then at the very least, you will finish the season.”The next afternoon as I dragged myself into Chow's gym, I thought of the efforts Mom had made in order to pay for my training. I thought of my two sisters: Arielle, who gave up ballroom dancing, and Joyelle, who stopped ice skating so that our single mom could afford to keep me in gymnastics.For now, here's what you need to know: Exactly 210 days before I ever attempted my first vault (跳跃) in the London Summer Olympics, my leap of faith came this close to ending ina crash of disaster.1. The author wanted to give up gymnastics because _____.A. she thought she loved music moreB. she was overcome with homesicknessC. an Olympic gold was beyond her reachD. the training for the Olympics was too hard2. We can infer from the passage that the author _____.A. was born into an athletic familyB. realized her Olympic dreamC. changed her mind in the endD. had a bad childhood3. What would be the best title for the passage?A. My leap of faithB. A quitterC. My motherD. A dream come trueBLong-time exposure to air pollution can lead to physical changes in the brain and cause trouble in learning and memory, and even anxiety. This is suggested by the results of new research on mice.While other studies have shown the harmful effects of polluted air in the lungs and heart, this is the first to show thenegative effect on the brain.The team of Laura Fonken, Randy Nelson, from the Ohio State University, USA, has spread to the brain a previous line of research which found that fine particulate (微粒) matter floating in the air mainly because of air pollution caused by humans, causes swelling in much of the body, and may be related to high blood pressure problems, and some other diseases.In the research Fonken and his colleagues exposed mice to polluted air for six hours each day, five days a week, over a period of 10 months, almost half the average life length of mice.Polluted air contains fine particles created by cars, factories and natural dust. Fine particles of this kind are tiny, about 2.5 micrometers in diameter, or about one-thirtieth the width of a human hair. These particles can go deep into lungs and other organs.The concentration of this particulate material to which they exposed mice is equal to the concentration at which people can be exposed in some polluted urban areas.After a period of 10 months, the researchers got the animals to have a series of behavioral tests. Both the behavior of mice and the results of neurological (神经的) tests done to them show that those within the polluted air had more problems in learning and memory, and higher levels of anxiety.The results suggest that long-time exposure to polluted air can have measurable negative effects on the human brain and can cause a variety of mental health problems. This could have important consequences for those living and working in polluted urban areas.4.The results of new research on mice first suggest that polluted air mainly does harm to _________ .A.normal organsB.lungs and heartC.mental healthD.blood pressure5.The bad effects of tiny particles in polluted air are those Except ___________ .A.high blood pressure problemsB.making human hair thinnerC.different kinds of diseasesD.swelling in much of the body6.From the last sentence we can infer that people living in polluted urban areas ___________ .A.are likely to suffer from mental problemsB.can measure the negative effect on themC.show little concern for air pollutionD.can be exposed to polluted air longer7.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Long-time Exposure to Air PollutionB.Evidence and Concern of Air PollutionC.Measurable Effect on Human BrainD.Mental Problems Caused by Air PollutionCFrom the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they “know” all the words they are reading. This means that when they don’t know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.One day soon after school had started, I said to them, “NowI’m going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to en joy it and want to go on reading it, that’s enough for me. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean. “The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, “Mr. Holt, do you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.”During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk, From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, “It can’t be,” and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick , in edition with woodcuts. I said, “Don’t yo u find parts of it rather heavy going?” She answered, “Oh, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part. ”This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is—an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of “understanding” that can be dug out of a book.8. Accordi ng to the passage, children’s fear and dislike of books may result from________.A. reading little and thinking littleB. reading often and adventurouslyC. being made to read too muchD. being made to read aloud before others9. Upon hearing the teacher’s talk, the children probably felt that________.A. it sounded stupidB. it was not surprising at allC. it sounded too good to be trueD. it was no different from other teachers' talk10. Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?A. She skipped over those easy parts while reading.B. She had a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.C. She learned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.D. She turned out to be a top student after coming to this school.11. From the teacher's point of view,_________ .A. children cannot tell good parts from bad parts while readingB. children should be left to decide what to read and how to readC. reading is never a pleasant and inspiring experience in schoolD. reading involves understanding every little piece of informationDIf you know exactly what you want, the best route to a job is to get specialized training. A recent survey shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.That’s especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers. At Cornell’s School of Hotel Administration, forexample, bachelor’s degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers and plenty of chances for rapid advancement. Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run, too much specialization doesn’t pay off. Business, which has been flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval. The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary in the first place, but the impact of a degree washes out after five years.As further evidence of the erosion (销蚀) of corporate (公司的) faith i n specialized degrees, Michigan State’s Scheetz states a pattern in corporate hiring practices, although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management. “They want someone who isn’t limited by nuts and bolts to look at the big picture, ” says Scheetz.Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are thought to have: writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptability, and the ability to analyze and solve problems, David Birch claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree, “I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things,” says Birch. Liberal-arts means an academically thorough and strict program that includes literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behavior—plus a computer course or two. With that under your belt, you can feel free to specialize, “A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training isa very good combination in the marketplace,” says Scheetz.12. What kinds of people are in high demand on the jobmarket?A. Students with a bachelor’s degree in humanities.B. People with an MBA degree front top universities.C. People with formal schooling plus work experience.D. People with special training in engineering.13. By saying “... but the impact of a degree washes out after five years”, the author means ________.A. most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundationB. an MBA degree does not help promotion to managerial positionsC. MBA programs will not be as popular in five years’ time as they are nowD. in five years people will forget about the degree the MBA graduates have got.14. David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because ________.A. they are more capable of handling changing situationsB. they can stick to established ways of solving problemsC. they are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fieldsD. they have attended special programs in management.15. Which of the following statements does the author support?A. Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.B. Formal schooling is less important than job training.C. On-the-job training is, in the long run, less costly.D. Generalists will do better than specialists in management.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
