The study of the relationship between people and the land is called geography. Geographers compare and contrast 21 places on the earth. But they also 22 beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 23 . The word geography 24 from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for “earth” and graphein,
25 means “to write”. The English word geography means “to describe the earth”.
26 geography books focus on a small area 27 a town or a city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or a(an) 28 continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 29 to divide the study of 30 is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 31 starts with human beings and 32 how human beings and their environment act upon each other. But 33 geography is considered as a single subject, neither branch can neglect 34 .
A man who works on geography might be described 35 one who observes, records, and explains the 36 between places. If places 37 alike, there would be little need for geographers.
We know, however, 38 no two places are exactly the same. Geography,
39 , is a point of view, a special way of 40 at places.

第二部分阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A.B.C. D和E）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
I walk into a room and wonder who’s going to talk to me. Unavoidably, I fall into a self-conscious moment.
I’m waiting for my daughters to finish a gymnastics class, and I look around the waiting room. The lively chatter of mothers all around me makes me feel terribly alone. I don’t belong in this group; I’m an outsider to the world of little girls trying to finish their homework before the coach calls them in.
Nobody is paying attention to me!
Sulking in pity, I overhear a little girl ask her mother the difference between a homophone and a homonym.
My specialty! I can’t resist such questions.I have to assist. For the next 5 minutes, I find myself helping a 4th grader think of words that sound the same but are spelled differently (homophone) and words that sound the same and are spelled the same but mean different things (homonym).
You can't help somebody else and also think about how neglected you feel. It’s a strange phenomenon. It doesn’t matter that I'm supremely out of place here.I’m serving somebody, and then, everything feels right. And in a powerful turn of events, the mother who once seemed so cliquish and perfect starts telling me about her
life. Over homophones, I’m learning about a lifetime of heartbreak.
Each of those mothers might have their own story of loss. The room isn’t what it seems; it’s nothing like it sounds. Beneath the clique and chatter, there’s somebody who needs attention.
Perhaps when I feel most alone, most forgotten, I need to look up, find a way to help and bless (even if it’s through homophones), and stop focusing on myself.I want to enter a room, take my eyes off of myself, and find the one who needs help.
41. What does the author want to do the time she enters the waiting room?
A. She wants to ask who would like to talk to her.
B. She wants to be accepted among people already there.
C. She wants to get her daughter back home for dinner.
D. She wants to have a talk with the gymnastic coach of her daughter
42. According to the paragraph 5 the prefix (前缀) “homo” probably means
A. different.
B. same.
C. sound.
D. meaning.
43. The underlined sentence in the passage implies that
A. You should help those who feel neglected.
B. Helping others could stop you feeling neglected.
C. If you feel neglected you won’t help others.
D. You can’t help others when they pay no attention to you.
44. Which statement of below is not true according to the passage?
A. You are not the only one who feels helpless.
B. Don’t concentrate too much on yourself when you feel nervous.
C. Find someone to help and then you may feel better.
D. The world is not what you make it, but what you see and hear.
B
Ever thought you’d get to experience the smell of ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra’s hair, or the scent （气味）of the sun? Visitors to the Reg Vardy Gallery will soon be able to do just that．
The gallery, at Sunderland University, England, is holding a new exhibition. If There Ever Was . It focuses on scent rather than sight．
The creative idea is the brainchild of curator Robert Blackson．His inspiration came from reading the book Fast Food Nation．The book discussed the use of artificial chemicals to flavor things such as milkshakes, making them smell and taste like strawberries, when they’re not actually made from them．
A smell can often call up memories such as school dinners or a childhood holiday by the sea, but the smells on display, will allow visitors to experience smells their noses won’t have been able to pick out before．
“There's a whole variety of different smells, including some extinct flowers,” explains Blackson. “Some have been gone for hundreds of years．”
One extraordinary smell is the consequence of the first atomic bomb, dropped on Japan on August 6, 1945．
There is also the smell of Cleopatra’s hair, based on incense that was popular among ancient Egyptians．
The Soviet Mir space station, which burnt up in the atmosphere in , smells of
charred（烧焦的）material（the space station caught fire）．
Among the strange smells is the “surface of the sun”．
“It is hard to sum up．It is an atmospheric smell, like walking into a room when the sun has been pouring in,” says Blackson. “It gives a freshness, a sun kissed feel with a bit of metal．If you can say something smells hot, this is it．”
A team of 11, including perfume designers, have been working on recreating the smells for the exhibition．James Wong, a botanist at Botanic Gardens Conservation International, UK, helped in the recreation of the smells of four extinct flowering plants．
He did this by closely linking the extinct flowers with the smells of existing ones．With the help of historical reports of how the extinct flowers smelled, he was able to remix the smell．
The exhibition runs until June 6．Fourteen extinct and impossible smells are on display．
45．What might be the best title of the passage?
A．The Reg Vardy Gallery B．Egyptian queen Cleopatra’s hair
C．A visit to a new exhibition D .The scents of ancient Egypt 46．Visitors can enjoy all of the following scents at the Reg Vardy Gallery EXCEPT A．the scent of ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra’s hair.
B．the smells of charred material of the Soviet Mir space station.
C．the scent of having a childhood vacation by the sea.
D．the smell of the aftermath of the first atomic bomb dropped on Japan. 47．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Visitors go to Reg Vardy Gallery to enjoy beautiful sights．
B．James Wong managed to remix the smell by referring to some historical reports．
C．The exhibition will last until July 6．
D．The scents visitors will smell are found in the tomb of the ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra.
48．In which session are you likely to read the passage in a newspaper?
A．Science B．Education C．Entertainment D．Economy
C
As a parent you might never guess all the ways a good imagination benefits your child. It helps a preschooler:
Develop social skills
As children play pretend, they explore relationships between family members, friends and co-workers and learn more about how people interact. Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients. Playing house, they learn more about how parents feel about their children. Imaginative play helps develop empathy for others. If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet, they are better able to help those in need. They become more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate.
Build self-confidence
Young children have very little control over their lives. Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child. It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.
Boost intellectual growth
Using the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought. Children who can see a king’s castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically. This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on.
Practice language skills
Kids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking. This helps boost their vocabulary, improve sentence structure and enhance communication skills.
Work out fears
Playing pretend can help children work out their fears and worries. When children role-play about the big, bad monster under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesn’t seem quite so big or so bad. Imaginative play also helps kids vent confusing feelings they might have, such as anger toward a parent or rivalry(竞争) with a new sibling(兄弟姐妹).
To encourage your youngster’s imagination, read to him every day. Books offer children the opportunity to visit other worlds and create new ones of their own.
For generations children have enjoyed reading the story of Peter Pan because Peter takes them on fascinating adventures. Reader’s Digest Young Families offers a beautiful vintage Disney edition of Peter Pan, which is an iParenting Media Award winner. Click here to find out how you can get this classic story along with 2 free books -- Bambi and Pinocchio.
49. Where can you probably find the article?
A. Newspaper
B. Magazine
C. Internet
D. Book
50. What’s not the advantage of children having a good imagination?
A. Understanding the other people’s feeling and problems.
B. Expressing their feelings like anger toward a parent.
C. Doing good to their speeches.
D. Learning to think symbolically expands a child's mind.
51. What’s the meaning of the underlined word?
A. improve
B. limit
C. push
D. praise
52. What’s the purpose of writing the article?
A. Tell the readers 5 benef its of encouraging the child’s imagination.
B. Advise the parents to encourage the child’s imagination.
C. Introduce some Disney stories to the readers.
D. Persuade the parents to buy books for their children.
D
The world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis worldwide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years.
And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of . These food-price increases, combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but we'll have to start thinking ahead and acting globally.
Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity. Malawi’s harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or $10 billion altogether.
Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into biofuels(生物燃料). The U.S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol (乙醇) changed from corn. There may be a case for biofuels produced on lands that do not produce foods — tree crops, grasses and wood products —but there’s no case for the government to pay to put the world’s dinner into the gas tank.
Third, we urgently need to weather-proof the world’s crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond —which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather —can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation Fund to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise.
53. An international fund based on the Malawi model would______.
A. cost each of the developed countries $10 billion per year
B. aim to double the harvest in southern African countries in a year
C. decrease the food prices as well as the energy prices
D. give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds
54. With the second step, the author expresses the idea that ______.
A. it is not wise to change food crops into gas
B. it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tank
C. we should get alternative forms of fuel in any way
D. biofuels should be developed on a large scale
55. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. A rain-collecting pond is a simple safeguard against dry weather.
B. A Climate Adaptation Fund has been established to help poor.
C. The world has made a serious promise to build farm ponds.
D. It makes a great difference whether we develop wood products or not.
56. In the passage, the author calls on us to______.
A. slow down but not to stop economy
B. develop tree crops, grasses and wood products
C. achieve economic growth and political stability
D. act now so as to relieve the global food shortage
E
There is one difference between the sexes on which every expert and study agrees: men are more aggressive than women．It shows up in 2-year-olds．It continues through school days and persists into adulthood．It is even constant across cultures．And there is little doubt that it is rooted in biology．
If there’s a woman’s quality which is the same as men’s aggressiveness, it’s what social scientists refer to a s the result of “education”．Feminists have argued that the caring nature of women is not biological in origin, but rather has been forced into women by a society that wanted to keep them in the home．But the signs that it is at least partly inborn are too numerous to ignore．Just as tiny infant girls respond more readily to human faces, female toddlers（学步者）learn much faster than males how to pick up nonverbal cues from others．And grown women are far more skilful than men at interpreting facial expressions: A recent study by University of Pennsylvania brain researcher Ruben Gur showed that they easily read emotions such as anger, sadness and fear．The only such emotion men could pick up was disgust．What difference do such differences make in the real world? Among other things, women appear to be somewhat less competitive--or at least competitive in different ways--than men．At the Harvard Law School, for instance, female students enter with qualities just as outstanding as those of their male peers．But they do n’ t qualify for the well-known Law Review in proper numbers, a fact some school officials owe to women’ s discomfort in the incredibly competitive atmosphere．
Students of management styles have found fewer differences than they expected between men and women who reach leadership positions, perhaps because many successful women deliberately imitate men．But an analysis by Purdue social psychologist Alice Eagly of 166 studies of leadership style did find one difference: Men tend to be more “autocratic”-making decisions on their own--while women tend to consult colleagues more often． Studies of behavior in small groups turn up even more differences．Men will typically dominate the discussion, says University of Toronto psychologist Kenneth Dion, spending more time talking and less time listening．
57．The passage mainly discusses__________．
A．how sex differences are demonstrated in social relations
B．how hormone determines sex differences
C．why there are differences between males and females
D．why men and women have different social roles
58．The Harvard Law School example in paragraph 3 suggests that_________．A．women are not as competitive as men
B．law is not the right profession for women
C．women are as excellent as men when they are young
D．academic qualities are not equal to performance
59．Which of the following statement is true according to paragraph 4?
A．Men leaders should consult colleagues and subordinates more often．
B．Female leaders’ success is due to their imitating male leaders．
C．Men and women are different in their leadership style．
D．Decisiveness is an important quality for a successful politician．
60．It can be inferred from the passage that the writer_________．
A．denies the difference sexes make in real life
B．has negative views against men
C．discourages women to be competitive
D．treats sex difference objectively

64. David is a lawyer .He is always busy and under stress. He is seldom
free but on holidays he usually will try different adventurous sports from white water rafting and jet boat rides to bungee－jumping and skydiving. In this way, he releases his stress. And drinking with friends is his favorite.

作文One possible version：
Recently I have carried out a survey among the students in our class. The survey was conducted to find out what influences the music we listen to.
According to the survey, TV and films have the strongest effect on our choice of music, 50 per cent of the students sharing the opinion. About 30 per cent of the students say they are influenced by friends when deciding what to listen to. Radio comes third, with 20 per cent of the students choosing it. Parents seem to have very little influence. Only 10 per cent of the students say they listen to what their parents recommend.
In my opinion, one of the major reasons why TV and films influence our choice of music so much is that the music in the film usually goes with beautiful pictures, or expresses certain feelings of
heroes. Good film music, as is often the case, can accompany a person’s entire life.
