It is uncertain when, how or why the ancestors of the whale gradually moved into a purely aquatic environment. Freed from the gravity of the land, the whales evolved to become the true ocean beings of the planet. For most of our shared history, our relationship with the whales has been a distant one. If a memory remains behind the eyes of these gentle creatures, it is rarely if ever shown. Rather our first furtive attempts to enter the whale’s domain seem greeted with curiosity and a longing for communication and understanding.Part B Role Play (角色扮演)视频录音W: Hi, Dr. Brown.

Part A 模仿朗读The wind has had some of its most dramatic effects on human history when it interacts with the energy of the oceans. It's an interaction that can have major long term consequences. But it can also bring short term disaster. The sea acts as a main store of the sun’s heat. There's more energy in the top 3 meters of the ocean than the whole of the atmosphere. By pumping this energy into the air, the ocean is constantly influencing the wind. A principle that is demonstrated each year: the hotter the ocean, the faster the air above rises.Part B 角色扮演W: Hi,Tom.

I visited one building with eco-designs. They helped cut energy cost greatly. Last year, that building saved up to 20% energy cost, compared to other ordinary buildings. Thanks to the various wonderful design.2. 让你印象最深刻的设计是什么？--What design impressed you most?电脑回答 Well, I think what impresses me most is the high-tech curtain wall. For one thing, it is used to adjust temperature automatically in the building. The indoor temperature will not be affected by conditions outside. For another, it enables 90% of the office area to enjoy natural sunlight, which makes people feel like closer to nature.3. 这栋大楼里还有其他新设计吗？--Are there anyother new designs in this building?电脑回答 Yes, of course. For example, there is only one elevator in the building. Many staff have to walk to their offices. At first some of them complained, but gradually they realized walking is pretty good exercise to keep them fit. Another example is that the parking spaces are reserved mostly for small cars, so the use of small cars is encouraged.1. When did Tom visit Beijing?--He visited Beijing in August.2. How long was Tom’s trip?--Three days.3. What is used to adjust temperature in the building?--The high-tech curtain wall.4. How much of the office area can enjoy natural sunlight?--90%.5.

populated by hunter﹣gatherers，small，tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other．Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago，when the world had just five to ten million people，they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards，many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number．In recent centuries，trade，industrialisation，the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades，all have caused many languages to disappear，and dominant languages such as English，Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present，the world has about 6，800 languages．The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven．The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages，often spoken by many people，while hot，wet zones have lots，often spoken by small numbers．Europe has only around 200 languages；the Americas about 1，000；Africa 2，400；and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200，of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800．The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000，which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．11Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡），with only a few elderly speakers left．Pick，at random，Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers），Chiapaneco in Mexico （150），Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three）or Wadjigu in Australia （one，with a question﹣mark）：none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A．They developed very fast．B．They were large in number．C．They had similar patterns．D．They were closely connected．（2）Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex．B．Advanced．C．Powerful．D．Modern．（3）How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present？A．About 6，800．B．About 3，400．12C．About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A．New languages will be created．B．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C．Human development results in fewer languages．D．Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new，but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置）well after they go out of style．That's bad news for the environment ﹣and our wallets ﹣as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using，Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device．This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s．Devices were grouped by generation．Desktop computers，basic mobile phones，and box﹣set TVs defined 1992．Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997．And MP3 players，smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002，before tablets and e﹣readers showed13up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices，however，we didn't throw out

electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007．We're not just keeping these old devices﹣we continue to use them．According to the analysis of Babbitt's team，old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions （排放）more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window．So what's the solution（解决方案）？The team's data only went up to 2007，but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function，such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing．They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%．（1）What does the
