Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, shedid what she could to help her 3﹣year﹣old son, Michael, prepare for a new sibling. They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommy’s tummy.The pregnancy progresses normally for Karen, an active member of the Panther Creek United Methodist Church in Morristown, Tennessee. Then the labor pains come. Every five minutes …every minute. But Complications arise during delivery. Hours oflabor. Would a C﹣section be required? Finally, Michael’s little sister is born. But she isin serious condition. With siren howling in the night, the ambulance rushes the infant tothe neonatal intensive care unit at St.Mary’s Hospital in Knoxville, Tennessee.The days inch by. The little girl gets worse. The pediatric specialist tells theparents, “There is very little hope. Be prepared for the worst.” Karen and her husband contact a local cemetery about a burial plot. They have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby ﹣ now they plan a funeral.Michael, keeps begging his parents to let him see his sister, “I want to sing to her,” he says, but kids are never allowed in Intensive Care Unit. However, Karen makes up her mind. She will take Michael whether they like it or not.If he doesn’t see his sister now, he may never see her alive. She dresses him in an oversized scrub suit and marches him into ICU. He looks like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognizes him as a child and bellows, “Get that kid out of here now! No children are allowed.” The mother rises up strong in Karen, and the usually mild﹣mannered lady glares steel﹣eyed into the head nurse’s face, her lips a firm line.“He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!” Karen tows Michael to his sister’s bedside. He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live. And he begins to sing. In the pure hearted voice of a 3﹣year﹣old, Michael sings:“You are my su nshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies aregray …”Instantly the baby girl responds. The pulse rate becomes calm and steady.Keep on singing, Michael.“You never know, dear, how much I love you.Please don’t take my sunshine away…” The ragged, strained breathing becomes as smooth as a kitten’s purr.Keep on singing, Michael.“The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I held you in my arms…” Michael’s little sister relaxes as rest, healing rest, seems to sweep over her.Keep on singing, Michael. Tears conquer the face of the bossy head nurse. Karen glows.“You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.Please don’t take my sunshine away.” Funeral plans are scrapped. The next day ﹣ the very next day ﹣ the little girl is well enough to go home!The medical staff just called it a miracle.Karen called it a miracle of God’s love!Never give up on the people you love. Love is so incredibly powerful.(1)What can we learn from the passage?________A.Michael do esn’t love his younger sister because she will share his mother’s.B.After delivering the baby, Karen was seriously ill.C.Seeing the younger sister in danger,Michael didn’t care and still sang happily.D.The head nurse was at last moved by Michael’s song and his love for the sister.(2)Why did Karen insist on Michael’s entering Intensive Care Unit ?________A.Because Michael may never have chance to see his younger sister alive.B.Because Karen was driven mad at that time.C.Because Michael was also seriously ill.D.Because Karen knew Michael would save his younger sister by his singing.(3)Who saved the girl in the end?________A.The baby .B.Karen and her husband.C.The pediatric specialist .D.Her brother Michael.(4)What does the writer want to convey in the passage?________A.Love can make miracles.B.Where there is a will, there is a way.C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.D.Parents are the best teachers in children’s development.【答案】DADA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文告诉我们当Karen知道她会再有一个孩子时,她尽她所能帮助三岁的儿子适应这个变化.从女孩还没出生开始,哥哥就给她唱歌.出生之后,女孩病的很严重,但妈妈哥哥没有放弃,哥哥继续给妹妹唱歌,最后奇迹发生了,小女孩康复了.短文告诉我们爱是可以创造奇迹的.【解答】(1)D.细节理解题.根据文章 Keep on singing, Michael.

A key issue has arisen in the tide of this rapid change: individual privacy.New communication and information technologies have enabled many organizations and people to collect, organize, and sell information about other people and organizations, both quickly and cheaply. The easy access to personal information makes banking, education, health care, and sales much more convenient for both consumers and sellers. Credit card system would be impossible without large databases of information available on demand. Scanners in the supermarket rapidly and accurately record every item that passes over them, making grocery checkouts(结账) faster and error free. Companies keep huge mailing lists of customers that record not only their names, addresses, and phone numbers, but also major recent purchases, and demographic(人口统计的) information (such as sex, age, income, and educational level) that helps the companies identify target markets for specific products.The negative side to all this shared information is that there is little control over who sees or uses this personal information.Medical records are shared not only by doctors’ offices and hospitals but are occasionally made available to insurance companies as well. Credit report errors occur often an d can be very damaging to a person’s financial situation. Many people worry that having so much of their personal information available to so many othersmay hurt their privacy. Consumers report increasing concern over ________ of personal privacy even as they volunteer personal information in exchange for coupons(优惠券)and gifts. After all, the possible consequence endangers the interests of their property rights, the right to work, even the right to life and so on. Then what kind of privacy future are we facing?(1)The writer uses the example of “credit card system” in Paragraph 2 to show________.A.new technologies make it very difficult to start credit card system.B.people can’t get credit cards without checking out in supermarkets.C.quantities of personal information are collected by organizations.D.society changes rapidly because of easy access to people’s privacy.(2)We may learn from the passage that________.A.supermarket checkouts make errors easily without credit cards.B.new communication is based entirely on personal information.C.the negative side of shared information endangers people’s privacy.D.credit report errors only happen to those with financial problems.(3)The underlined word “erosion” probably means________.A.loss.fort.C.association.D.defense.(4)What is likely to be talked about after the last paragraph?________A.More uses of information technologies.B.Ways to protect the individual information.C.Engines to search for personal information.D.Demand of updating personal information.【答案】CCAB【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文是一篇社会文化类阅读,文章主要介绍了人们普遍认为,传播媒介和技术对一个正在迅速变化的社会作出了贡献.在这种快速变化的浪潮中出现了一个关键问题:个人隐私.【解答】(1)C.细节理解题.根据“Credit card system would be impossible without large databases of information available on demand.”可知作者在第2段中使用“信用卡系统”的例子来说明组织收集的个人信息的数量.故选C.(2)C.细节理解题.根据“Many people worry that having so much of their personal information available to so many others may hurt their privacy.”可知我们可以从文章中了解到,共享信息的负面影响会危及人们的隐私.故选C.(3)A.细节理解题.根据“having so much of their pers onal information available to so many others may hurt their privacy.”可知“erosion”意为“侵蚀”.故选A.(4)B.推理判断题.根据“”可知在最后一段之后可能会讨论保护个人信息的方法.故选B.4. Against the supposition(假设) that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest fires to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influenceclimate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone(臭氧)levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far﹣off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are________ by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.(1)According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest firesmay________.A.result in a warming climate.B.lead to a longer fire season.C.cause the forest fires to occur more frequently.D.protect the forests and the environment there.(2)The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPT________.rge amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphere.B.the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen increase.C.snow on the ground mirrors more sunlight back into space.D.ashes from the fire fall on the ice surface and take in more radiation from the sun.(3)The underlined phrase “soaked up” in the last paragraph most probablymeans________.A.released .B.absorbed .C.created .D.distributed.(4)From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may________.A.warm the climate as the supposition goes.B.help to gain more energy rather than release more energy.C.destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far﹣off sea ice.D.allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climate.【答案】ACBD【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文是一篇社会文化类阅读.文章主要介绍了阿拉斯加、加拿大和西伯利亚的森林大火使气候变暖,科学家们已经发现,在燃烧的树木允许更多的雪将更多的阳光反射到太空的地区可能会发生冷却.【解答】(1)A.推理判断题.根据第二段第一句This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions.可知根据新的发现,采取措施预防北部森林火灾可能导致气候变暖.故选A.(2)C.细节理解题.根据第四段The following spring,however,the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire,because fewer trees covered the ground.Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space,leading to cooling.可知地面上的雪将更多的阳光反射回太空不是森林火灾后的所有直接影响.故选C.(3)B.词义猜测题.根据…but 0.9watts per square meter will be sent back into space 可知soak up吸收与sent back释放的意思相反.故选B(4)D.细节理解题.根据Against the supposition(假设) that forest fires in Alaska,Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space可知阿拉斯加、加拿大和西伯利亚森林火灾的结论是允许更多的雪反射更多的阳光进入空气,从而凉爽气候.故选D.第二节(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.选项中有两项为多余选项.Do you know your uneasy adolescent might be experiencing teen depression? Of course.Teen depression isn’t just bad moods and occasional sadness﹣it’s a serious problem that affects every aspect of a teenager’s normal life.(1)_______ But depression can be treated.(2)_______ For example, teens can develop feelings of worthlessness over their school performance.

It generally costs around$300 a year now. (18)You may think it is a waste of money, but if you have even a small medical problem, the insurance will help you to pay the bills. So, you should buy a medical insurance when you arrive at the university. I am sure the International Students Office will help you with that. (19)Private doctors are the standard form of the medical care in America, but there are also college clinics, public and private clinics, etc. The quality of medical care can be different in these different places, so it would be better if you ask an American friend for advice before going to see a doctor. Before you leave China, I suggest you have a medical examination. If there is something wrong, you can have it cured in your own country.(20)Don’t forget to take your personal and family health records abroad with you.

The history of the galleryBIt was a cold winter. The wind blew all night and the snow was blinding. When morning came, my three children and I got up and made our way to the windows. As we looked out the window, we saw that the henhouse was gone. Our three hens had been blown away.I looked at the emptiness outside. Then I saw all three chickens sat around the edge of a white bucket. How was this violent wind not blowing them into the field beyond? I quickly pulled on long snow pants and heavy winter coat, wrapped a scarf and stuck my feet into very large boots .I shouted at the wind as it blew. I was alone, save for my children. They stared out the window into the vast white sea of snow, their eyes peeled for any sign of movement. Outside I heard the sound of my boots as I walked against the wind.The snow circling around me, I steadily made my way to the soft cluck-cluck-cluck sound my hens always made. When I reached them, I saw that their little feet were holding on to the edge of the bucket, heads bent forward and away from the wind. I gently lifted each hen and put itcarefully into the warm inside. Then I began the freezing walk back to the small shed directly behind our house. One by one I laid my chickens on the cold floor, and they began to cluck softly.As I shut the shed doors, my eyes went directly to the window where my children were watching. They jumped up and down ch eering, and so did I! I wasn’t some dragon slayer (屠龙者) from a fairy tale. I was simply a mom, but the look on my children’s faces told me that they thought I was a hero mom.24. Seeing all three chickens sitting around the bucket ,the author felt ______.A. incredibleB. worriedC. shyD. confident25. How does the author reach the hens ?A. By searching for the white bucket.B. By wearing protective clothes.C. By following the sound of the hens.D. By shouting at the henhouse.26. From the story, we know that _________.A. the author’s children liked dragon slayersB. the children watched their mother all the wayC. the author struggled to be a heroD. the author enjoyed herself in the snow27. What might be the best title for the text?A. Weather in extreme.B. Hens in trouble.C. Kindness in need.D. Hero in the snow.CFor those concerned about wrinkly old skin, It might be a creative solution: an elastic(有弹性的) “second skin” that can be smoo thed on to make aged tissue look more youthful.The wearable film, developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), has shown promise in a series of small experiments where it was applied to wrinkles, under-eye bags and areas of dry skin. When applied to the face or body, the thin, transparent layer sticks to the skin and supports the tissue, making it look and behave like younger skin, its producers claim.“What we’ve been able to do is create a cream that you can put on the skin, and then whe n it's on the skin it can actually form, essentially, an elastic second skin,” said Bob Langer, who led the research. Tests in the lab found that the polymer film (高分子膜), which is only 70 thousandths of a millimetre thick, reduced the appearance of wrinkles and under-eye bags, and helped keep moisture in areas of dry skin.The layer is designed to be applied in the morning, then peeled off at night, In previous studies, the second skin withstood normal daily wear, and the stresses and strains of exercise and swimming, without falling off or causing irritation. It also survived exposure to rain.“It's something you can wear for a whole day or longer, depending on the physical forces that get applied to the area where it is worn, "said Daniel Anderson, who helped develop the product at MIT. “You can't tell you're wearing it.”While normal cosmetics can mask imperfections on the skin, the new coating changes the way skin behaves by giving it the elasticity of young skin.

Their paths separated only six million years ago. Research on how gorillas communicate can help us understand human language development.Understanding how the brain works helps us see a connection between language development and non-verbal signs. These signs or movements include things like the way we move our hands or bodies or the different expressions our faces have in different social situations. A new study on gorillas showed that the right side of the body is controlled by the left part of the brain and it is also the location for language development.Two cameras were used to film all of one ape’s movements. One of the first results was that gorillas use their right hands more when they are doing actions with their heads or mouths at the same time. This shows that there is a connection between how our brain works and the reason we use one side of our body more than the other. In addition, we can use the results of the study and our knowledge about brains to help us understand more about how language first developed in humans.Dr Forrester, who did the study, says the results can be useful in other ways, such as understanding language development in children. For example, some children have serious illness called “autism” which can stop them communicating normally with people. It might be possible to use the same study method to find out which children have this illness when they are very young. Doctors will then be able to start treatment early.32.Which of the following may have a connection with right-handedness?A. Communication.B. Intelligence.C. Social position.D. Social success.33.
