The reason? Eating in public.In Hong Kong it is 31.__________ to eat on the subway, and when the tourist was scolded by a Hong Kong local, the situation escalated（升级）into a verbal slinging match.In New York City, eating on the subway is also controversial. No law bans the practice, but a Democratic state senator (参议员) introduced one last week. The 32.__________ law would ban eating on the subway system and 33.__________ first time violators $250 (1,579 yuan), according to the New York Times. Proponents of the bill argue that eating on the subway attracts rats. Others say the broader target should be litterbugs, rather than those who carefully sip their coffee and eat their bread on the way to work. They also argue that "street food" is an important part of New York's culture and history. Banning its 34.__________ in public areas such as the subway would have negative effects.Street food, and eating in public places is a deep-rooted cultural practice in cities as diverse as New York, Beijing and Paris. While 35__________, it has been traditionally thought of as the behavior of the lower classes. Eating in public was (and in some places, still is) associated with 36__________, poorer people. In the 19th century, eating in public was seen as a threat to morality and public health. Putnam's (a popular magazine at the time) stated: "Eating in public may cause a certain 37.__________of manner and disinterest in little ladies and gentlemen. It was something people in the Victorian era did not want to 38.__________. A recent New York Times article drew a link between this moral 39.__________ about street food and concern over the growingcarts in the 1800s.Whether you love eating street food, or have to eat your breakfast on the run, it's best to be considerate when enjoying a bite in public.2.A.Keep an eye on your storage media.anization makes it easy to find your stuff later.C.Write down where you have important files.E.Remember something is better than nothing.F. Preserve your digital memories now, before it's too late.How to Keep Your Digital Memorials Safe?Do you value your digital stuff? Nearly everyone is creating things with computers, and some do it without any concern for its value. Others recognize its current value, but think little about what it could mean to them in the future, and either aren't aware or don't think that all of it could be destroyed tomorrow. But hard drives die all the time, and the online services into which people sink their time close with alarming regularity, taking the work of millions of people with it._________67____________.Steps1.Prepare to make a quick backup. If nothing else, get a cheap USB stick and drag-and-drop your documents folder onto it. Worry about the other things later. You should do more than this, but it's most important to take the most valuable, irreplaceable information from your hard drive and put it on a second medium to guard against hard drive failure, theft or loss.2.Decide what you value. Some questions to ask yourself are:How replaceable is this data? How good are you at assessing the value of items? _______68__________. For things like business accounts and documents, the answer is of course you would. This kind of thing should be your first priority.3.Start making backups. __________69__________ Diminishing returns (效益递减) apply in backups as they do with everything else. The cheapest and simplest backup methods take care of an overwhelming majority of likelymore complicated and expensive you insist on making it, the less likely you are to do it.4.____________70______________If one of your backup drives fails, replace it immediately. Remember that all storage devices eventually become obsolete (陈旧的). If you have valuable files on obsolete media, those files become increasingly difficult to access with every passing year. So in order to keep your files accessible, remember to migrate your collection to new storage media periodically.IV Summary WritingDirection: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main file of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Airline seats have been one-size-fits-all since the beginning. Today, those 16.5 to 18-inch wide seats are anything but.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), obesity(肥胖症) has more than doubled since 1980. In 2014, more than l.9 billion adults were overweight, and over 600 million were obese.The unchanged seat size and increase of obese passengers highlight the conflict between airlines' needs and basic passenger rights.Last month, lawyer Giorgio Destro, an Italian lawyer, sued Emirates, claiming his flight was disturbed by an obese passenger seated next to him. According to reports, Destro was not able to comfortably sit in his assigned seat, and spent much of the nine-hour flight standing or sitting in crew seats,Many airlines have responded to the growing obesity by insisting passengers of size buy two seats to ensure safety and comfort. Samoa Air, for example, is charging by weight (which has become known as a "fat tax"). At first glance, the fat tax issue sounds discriminatory (歧视的, but some argue that this is purely down to numbers. A kilo is a kilo. It has nothing to do, with the condition of the weight.The heavier a plane is, the more fuel it burns through.In other words, the argument is whether it is fair that a 150-pound person is charged for their 50-pound bag, when a 300-pound person with a carry-on isn’t charged anything extra.However, Peggy Howell of NAAFA argues that obesity is an illness, and that obese people should be entitled to having certain rights protected.“We question the legality of the discrim inatory policy and whether it violates the Air Carrier Access Act governing the treatment of passengers with disabilities,” she says. “The American Medical Association (AMA) recently declared obesity a disease, which should make fat passengers a protect ed class.”Howell points out that the Canadian Transportation Agency (CTA) addressed this issue in 2009, and issued a ‘one-person, one-fare’ ruling covering passengers with disabilities. Those passengers include ones who are ‘clinically obese’ and who cannot fit into a single seat.二、完型填空(共1题)1.The two most common organizational patterns of the family are the nuclear family and the extended family. To a large extent, these patterns 41.________ a society's primary subsistence (存在) strategy.American social scientists have generally agreed that families everywhere fulfill four crucial social 42.________ : (a) reproduction of new members, (b) child care, (c) socialization of children to values, traditions, and norms of the society, and (d) intimacy and support for members. Although we can define the family 43.________ its functions, the emphasis given to each of them varies widely both geographically and 44.________ . For example, in nineteenth-century America, people married mainly to have children. Today, emotional support among family members has now become the dominant function of the family, and the family has become an economic unit for consumption rather than for 45.________.In recent years, social scientists have discovered important 46.________in family types, such as the single-parent family and the nuclear family fixed within a network of kin(亲戚). American families also 47.________ according to social class. A couple's social class affects the number of children they will decide to have, if any, and also the likelihood of 48.________to the family because of illness, death, or divorce. Social class also influences the amount of stress a marriage is likely to undergo and the way parents raise their children. 49.________, the extent to which American families now differ by 50.________appears to be much less than it was fifty years ago.past few decades. Many people are marrying later, having children later, and having fewer children or none at all. These social changes have 52.________ diverse household patterns, including single-person households and childless couples. Role changes are also occurring as both partners pursue 53.________ and share family responsibilities.Many innovative family arrangements are attempts to enhance the commitment of marriage while increasing individual freedom and fulfillment. In this way, families are 54________ such broad social trends as delayed marriage, greater participation of women in the job market, and a rising rate of divorce.

The management of Western Electric's Hawthorne plant, located near Chicago, wanted to find out if environmental factors, such as lighting, could affect workers' productivity and morale. A team of social scientists experimented with a small group of employees who were set apart from their coworkers. The environmental conditions of this group's work area were controlled, and the subjects themselves were closely observed. To the great surprise of the researchers, the productivity of these workers increased in response to any change in their environmental conditions. The rate of work increased even when the changes (such as a sharp decrease in the level of light in the workplace) seemed unlikely to have such an effect.It was concluded that the presence of the observers had caused the workers in the experimental group to feel special. As a result, the employees came to know and trust one another, and they developed a strong belief in the importance of their job. The researchers believed that this, not the changes in the work environment, accounted for the increased productivity.A later reanalysis of the study data challenged the Hawthorne conclusions on the grounds that the changes in patterns of human relations, considered so important by the original researchers, were never measured. However, even if the original conclusions must be revised, they nonetheless raise a problem for social scientists: Research subjects who know they arebeing studied can change their behavior. Throughout the social sciences, this phenomenon hascome to be called the Hawthorne effect.56. The author implies that a sharp decrease in light increased workers' output because _______________.A. the workers experienced less eyestrain in a dark working placeB. the workers had to pay more attention to what they were doingC. the workers knew they were being observed, and this motivated themD. the workers in the experiment were paid more than other workers57. The pattern of organization of the second paragraph is________ A. list of items B. time orderC. definition and exampleD. cause and effect58. The Hawthorne experiment suggests that___________A. workers' attitudes are more important than their environmentB. social scientists are good workersC. productivity in electric plants tends to be lowD. even those who were not in the experiment improved their productivity59. The author's main purpose is________________A. to explain the Hawthorne effectB. to prove the importance of researchC. to amuse with a surprising experimentD. to suggest ideas for future research2.Join IMDb and Become a Founding Supporter of the Academy Museum of Museum of Motion PicturesTh e Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences is building the world’s leading movie museum in the heart of Los Angeles.

To live in the United States today is to gain an appreciation for Dahrendorf’s declaration that social change exists everywhere. Technology, the application of knowledge for practical ends, is a major source of social change.Yet we would do well to remind ourselves that technology is a human creation; it does not exist naturally. A spear or a robot is as much a cultural as a physical object. Until humans use a spear to hunt game or a robot to produce machine parts, neither is much more than a solid mass of matter. For a bird looking for an object on which to rest, a spear or robot serves the purpose equally well. The explosion of the Challenger space shuttle and the Russian nuclear accident at Chernobyl drive home the human quality of technology; they provide cases in which well-planned systems suddenly went haywire and there was no ready hand to set them right. Since technology is a human creation, we are responsible for what is done with it. Pessimists worry that we will use out technology eventually to blow our world and ourselves to pieces. But they have been saying this for decades, and so far we have managed to survive and even flourish. Whether we will continue to do so in the years ahead remains uncertain. Clearly, the impact of technology on ourlives deserves a closer examination.Few technological developments have had a greater impact on our lives than the computer revolution. Scientists and engineers have designed specialized machines that can do the tasks that once only people could do. There are those who assert that the switch to an information-based economy is in the same camp as other great historical milestones, particularly the Industrial Revolution. Yet when we ask why the Industrial Revolution was a revolution, we find that it was not the machines. The primary reason why it was revolutionary is that it led to great social change. It gave rise to mass production and, through mass production, to a society in which wealth was not confined to the few.In somewhat similar fashion, computers promise to revolutionize the structure of American life, particularly as they free the human mind and open new possibilities in knowledge and communication. The Industrial Revolution supplemented and replaced the muscles of humans and animals by mechanical methods. The computer extends this development to supplement and replace some aspects of the mind of human beings by electronic methods. It is the capacity of the computer for solving problems and making decisions that represents its greatest potential and that poses the greatest difficulties in predicting the impact on society.63. Why does the author give the examples of the Challenger and Chernobyl?A. To show that technology could be used to destroy our world.B. To stress the author's concern about the safety of complextechnology.C. To prove that technology usually goes wrong, if not controlled by man.D. To demonstrate that being a human creation, technology is likely to make an error.64. What does the phrase "went haywire" in paragraph 2 most probably mean?A. were out of rangeB. went out of dateC. fell out of useD. got out of control65. According to the author, the introduction of the computer is a revolution mainly because___________.A. the computer has revolutionized the workings of the human mindB. the computer can do the tasks that could only be done by people beforeC. it has helped to switch to an information technologyD. it has a great potential impact on society66. In the passage, the author clearly shows his_____________.A. keen insight into the nature of technologyB. sharp criticism of the role of the Industrial RevolutionC. thorough analysis of the replacement of the human mind by computersD. comprehensive description of the negative consequences of technology-->。

In 1968 Spencer Silver, who was working for a compa ny called 3M at the time, was trying to produce super-strong adhesive, a substance making things sticky together, t o be used in the building of planes. This, however, wasn’t suc cessful and instead he succeeded in creating an extremely w eak adhesive that was 31 to pressure. This new adhesive ha d two advantages: it could be removed from surfaces quite ea sily and it could be reused. In spite of these two 32 features , nobody could see any practical use for it. In the end, the invention was 33 .A few years later, Art Fry, a product development engineer working for 3M, decided to use this adhesive for 34 use. He stuck strips of paper in a book as page marker and a whole n ew concept was born. However, the idea still wasn’t without 35 . The challenge was to make the glue stay on the sticky n ote itself, rather than peeling off and staying on the surface it was 36 to. Two more 3M employees were brought in and s et the task of producing a coating for the adhesive so that it w ouldn’t come off and they 37 just that. Unfortunately, 3M b osses still believed that this invention wasn’t going to be 38 successful and people would continue to use crap paper(小纸条) for their notes rather than sticky notes. This is why sticky n otes were only tested within the company, where they becam e extremely popular. It wasn’t until many years later that 3M b osses finally decided to give out a vast amount of free 39 t o other companies to see if anyone would be interested in buy ing them. To their surprise, 90 per cent of the companies appr oached went on to order more sticky notes. This went beyond anybody’s 40 . Nowadays, sticky notes come in a variety o f shapes and colours and are sold in more than 100 countries. III.

Health experts and busniesspeople alike said that givi ng people access to real-time calorie (卡路里)- burning and step-count data would inspire them to lose weight, eat better and -most important- ____41____ more. But even as the U.S. mar ket for ___42____ devices hits $7 billion this year, there’s evid ence that their promise isn’t quite paying off.The U.S. has an exercise problem, with 28% of Americans ages 50 and over considered wholly ___43____.

Wearables, experts ___4 4___, were going to change that.But limited academic research has been done to figure out whether wearables ____45____ people’s behavior in the long t erm. The little research that does exist isn’t ____46____. For a recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Associati on, researchers wanted to see whether activity trackers wouldhelp overweight people lose more weight over two years than if they just did a weight-loss intervention(干预) alone. They didn’t.“We found that just giving people a de vice doesn’t mean it’s going to ____47____ something you thi nk it’s going to lead to,” says John Jakicic, the author of the st udy, from the University of Pittsburgh. “These activity tracker s d on’t engage people in strategies that make a ___48___ in t erms of long-term change”Another new study highlighted a different challenge: user _ ___49___. By the end of a yearlong study of 800 people, just 10% of participants were still wearing the trackers, according to, Eric Finkelstein, a professor at the Duke- NUS Medical Sc hool in Singapore. “We didn’t find that Fitbits really have much of an effect,” he says. This may well be because people expe ct trackers to do something they’re not designed to do-- ____50____, force them to change their behavior. “There’s _ ___51____ among people about their function, a measuremen t tool and an intervention,” Finkelstein says. A scale counts po unds, ____52____, but won’t teach you how to eat less. “When people put these devices on, they might interact with the app(应用程序) for the first few weeks, maybe the first few months, but the re comes a point where that starts to fall off,” says Finkelstein.To be ____53___, some of the costlier add higher-tech wearables have features baked into them that encourage users to move more, says Shelten Yuen, Fitbit’s vice preside nt of research. Among them: shaking sensors, movement rem inders and social- media combination, all designed to ____54_ ___ users to make better health choices every day.

It was some months later, one the way back from cutting the g rass in Great Field that Albert first talked to us about the war. His whistling stopped in mid-tune. “Mother says there’s likely to be a war,” he said softly. “I don’t know what It is about—something about some old duke(公爵) that’s been shot at somewhere.

There are many arguments in favour of homework, and most teachers would agree with many, if not all, of the following:ho mework is a perfect opportunity to go over calmly what was d one with the teacher, and rethink and develop that initial input; homework offers a moment for students to work as individual s and develop learner self-governance outside the classroom;students and parents expe ct homework to be set and to be corrected. Nevertheless, the drawbacks that homework may have are often overlooked. There are two key issues which need to be raised when deali ng with the concept of homework. Firstly, there is the question of home. Often homework os not done at home at all, but at a friend’s house, on the street, on the bus on the way to class o r sitting on the step outside school before it opens. What’s more, al l too often, for it to be done effectively at home, homework req uires the participation and involvement of other adults. Parent s play a crucial role in a child’seducation, but they cann’t always be available, for a number of very valid reasons, and a tutor’s ability to aid, guide, encour age and simply organize a son or daughter’s study may be lim ited in many ways. The implication are unsetting: if homework is crucial to success in class, some children have an automat ic disability.Considering the second part of the compound noun opens up further questions. If the idea of home can be problematic, so t oo can the concept of work.Again, this will depend enormously on the context but , very of ten there is a lot of work put in. Demands on their time and att ention span(持续时间)and all sorts of other impositions mean homework is usuall y something to get out of the way, to be ticked off as done, wit h the exercises completed as fast as possible. It is not always seen as useful times spent developing and strengthening wh at is done in class but, rather, as something quickly finished to keep the teacher at bay. It might be correct or not, copied fro m a friend or cut and pasted from the internet, but the importa nt thing is that a teacher sees the exercise completed and, as a result, the task achieved: how much effort went into that res ult is not always appreciated or easy to evaluate and, even When work clearly falls below standard, and the mere fact of i ts having been done is often good enough. Teacher and stud ents are happy because everyone has officially fulfilled their c ommitment.The ideal that students go home, think back to what they did with their teacher, use the great resources their books and the internet provide to revise, reflect and put everything they have seen in class in place, into action, into practice, does not oft en happen with some students.62. Which of the following is not among the advantages of ho mework according to paragraph 1?A. Solidifying the knowledge and skills learnt in class.B. Developing the ability of the independent learning.C. Building a closer teacher-student relationship.D. Meeting the requirements of students and parents.63. Speaking of the significant impact of homework upon child ren’s success in class, some are justinferior to others because_______.A. their tutors are not always available to support themB. they are born without the ability to deal with conceptsC. their family circumstances limit their learning abilityD. some unknown reasons greatly hold up their progress64.“Keep the teacher at bay”(paragragh3) means the way ho mework is done____.A. imposes enormous meaningless evaluating work on teache rsB. blocks teachers from knowing more about their studentsC. displays the great efforts students make to satisfy their teachersD. shows achievements teachers expect to accomplish in thei r work65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Homework is hardly functioning as is naturally expected.B. Parents need to stand away from their children’s homewor k.C. Students prefer doing homework elsewhere instead of at h ome.D. The quality of homework is usually teachers’first concern.66.Which of the following might be the best title of the passag e？A. Are you ready for homework yet?B. Is there a way out for homework?C. Home and Work: it’s hard to combine.D. Homework or No homework: it is your choice.Section CDirections: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank wit h a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be u sed only once. Note that there are two more sentences than y ou need.Are zoos bad for animals ?Zoos have existed since ancient times and were features of th e great courts of Egypt and China. The display of unusual ani mals form foreign countries was, for a long time, a show of we alth and power. Today, zoos focus on the preservation of ani mals species and the education of the public. __67___Some animals are distinctly unsuited for life in a zoo, however noble the aims of the organization. Keeping elephant in captivity (囚禁) has long caused argument among animals rights activists. Elephant in the wild wander constantly, covering a wide territ ory on a daily basis. In captivity, they have no choice but to st and still for long periods of time. ___68____. Yet elephants are a threatened species in their native environments and are he avily caught for ivory(象牙)，leather and meat illegally. To protect the species form the wild due to injury or abandonment.___69___. The chances are, if a zoo has nothing but cement fl oors and metal enclosures, the animals will not do as well. Ma ny famous zoos now construct enclosures allowing animals fr eedom of movement and native vegetation. Some zoos have even begun housing species of animals together that normally interact in the wild, such as certain types of monkeys.Zoos are not a perfect solution for preservation.____70___. Th ey are undeniably helpful in repopulating declining animal spe cies and encouraging a preservationist outlook, but they are u nquestionably primary in their treatment of some animals. Ho pefully, animal activists and zoo advocates will continue to wo rk together, finding ways to create the best environment for ca ptive animals in breeding and repopulation efforts.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.The advantages of social networkingWhy do most people sign up to social networking sites? The main reason is to stay in touch with other people. These sites also help people to find their childhood friends that they have l ost touch with. Renewing these long-lost friendships is just a click away. It is very exciting to be abl e to catch up with friends and keep up with their news on am almost daily basis thanks to frequent updates.Keep up-to-date,however,doesn’t have to be restricted to friends and acq uaintances(相识的人）.What many people tend to forget is that they can also us e networking sites for professional reasons. It is actually a gre at way of finding out about upcoming job opportunities. Friend s might know about job vacancies that may not be advertised elsewhere or they can even recommend their friends for certai n jobs. Even people already employed can promote their busi ness online. This is particularly important for artists, actors an d musicians who can create pages devoted to their band or th eatre company, and inform fans about their gigs(现场演唱会）or latest exhibitions. In addition, the sites can be used to allow the public to give instant feedback on the artists’ work and to interact with their favourite artist.Another great advantage of social networking sites is how ea sy it is to organise an event with your friends. Thanks to differ ent settings people can organise their friends by different crite ria(标准）. These criteria could be how close friends they are, com mon interests and hobbies or where they live. This means if a certain event takes place, for example, an open-air concert or a football match, all they have to do is invite the right group of friends to attend. Some networking sites offer a range of quizzes and games, so friends living on opposite sid es of the globe can invite each other to participate and compe te in a variety of games without leaving their homes.V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, usi ng the words given in the brackets.72. 保持身体健康是硬道理。

But Sophia knew just how important Make – A –Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends. We were interested in finding out more, so we went along to meet Sophia and listen to what she had to say. Sophia told us that Make – A –Wish is a worldwide organization that started in the United States in 1980.“It’s a charity(慈善机构)that helps children who have got very serious illnesses. Make – A –Wish helps children feel happy even though they are sick, by making their wishes and dreams come true,” Sophia explained. We asked Sophia how Make – A –Wish had first started. She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris, who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman. Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris’s dream come true ----so, with everybody’s help, Chris, only seven ye ars old at the time, had been a “policeman” for a day. “when people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true, they decided to try and help other sick children too, and that was the beginning of Make – A –Wish,” explained Sophia. Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special, happy time. A Make-A-Wish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if they could have anything in the world. Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true. They do this either by providing things that are necessary, or by raising money or helping out in whatever way they can.21. Sophia found out about Make-A-Wish because her best friend had _________ . A. dreamed about it B. told the author about it C. benefited from it D. volunteered to help it 22. According to Sophia, Make-A-Wish __________ . A. started by drawing the interest of thepublic B. was understood by nobody at first C. raises money for verypoor families D. is an international charity23. What is said about Chris in Paragraph3? A. He has been a policeman since he was seven. B. He gave people the idea of starting Make-A-Wish. C. He wanted people to help make his dream come true. D. He was the first child Make-A-Wish helped after it had been set up. 24. Which of the following is true about Make-A-Wish volunteers? A. They are important for making wishes come true. B. They try to help children get over their illnesses. C. They visit sick children to make them feel special. D. They provide what is necessary to make Make-A-Wish popular.BThe word proactivity is fairly common in management literature, but you won't find it in the dictionary. It means that as a human being you take responsibility for your own life.Look at the word responsibility: ability to choose your response, response-ability. Effective people are proactive because they take responsibility. Their behavior is a product of their own decisions, based on values, rather than being a product of their own conditions, based on feelings. For instance, you are planning a picnic with your family. You're excited. You have all the preparations.You've decided where to go, and then it becomes stormy, killing your planProactive people carry weather within them. They realize what their purpose really was, and they creatively have a picnic elsewhere even if it's in their own basement with some special games, and make the best of that situation. The opposite of being proactive is to be reactive. Reactive people would say, "What's the use?" "We can't do anything." "Oh, this is so upsetting after all of our preparations and arrangements." They tryto persuade the people around them and usually the picnic will be cancelled.Being proactive is really just being true to your human nature. Your basic nature is to act, and not to be acted upon. That's true, despite widely accepted theories of determinism used to explain human nature. Determinism says that you don't really choose anything and thatwhat you call choices are nothing more than automatic responses to outside conditions.The language of reactive people is like: " I can't." " Don't have time." " I have to." " I must." The whole spirit of that languageis the transfer of responsibility. They think things are determined by their environment, or by their conditions, or their genetic makeup. Psychologically, people who believe they are determined will produce the evidence to support the belief, and they increasingly feel victimized and out of control. They're not in charge of their life at all.On the contrary, a proactive person exercises free will, the freedom to choose the response that best applies to his values. In that way, he gains control over the circumstances, rather than being controlled by them.25. According to the passage, a proactive person's behavior can result from __________ .A. the environmentB. an inner beliefC. the genetic makeupD. a temporary feeling26. When a picnic plan is threatened by a sudden storm, reactive people will probably __________ .A. have the picnic as plannedB. complain and give up the picnicC. make the best of the picnicD. find somewhere else for the picnic27. What does "carry weather within them" in the second paragraph probably mean?A. Give in to the weather passively.B. Manage to improve the weather.C. Stress the influence of the weather.D. Find a solution to the weather problems.28. It can be concluded from the passage that determinists (宿命论者) .A. are similar to proactive peopleB. are in charge of themselvesC. accept things passivelyD. respond to outside conditions activelyCWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition "depending on who needs it".Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep themall healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about "mother trees", usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down "mother trees" with no awareness of these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest."We didn't take any notice of it," Simard says sadly. "Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance." If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.29. The underlined sentence "the opposite is true" in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees __________ .A. compete for survivalB. protect their own wealthC. depend on each otherD. provide support for dying trees30. "Mother trees" are extremely important because they__________ .A. pass on nutrition to young treesB. look the largest in size in the forestC. seem more likely to be cut down by humansD. know more about the complex "tree societies"31. The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refers to __________ .A. how forestry industry developsB. how trees grow oldC. how "tree societies" workD. how young trees survive32. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Trees Are More Awesome Than You ThinkB. Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC. Old Trees Communicate Like HumansD. Trees Contribute To Our SocietyDWhat to do this weekend in LondonBeach CampWalpole Park, Mattock Lane, Ealing, W5 (020 8579 5436), today and tomorrow (and until Thurs), midday-6pm, children ￡5, adults free.Spend a day at the seaside without having to travel out of London.
