A taxi driver has to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the smallest lane(小巷)to the most popular bar around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers at all times.A certain London taxi driver told of his job as follows.During the night it is quite usual for him to stop two or three times for some refreshments (点心). He said, "I never drink when I'm working-I would lose my licence.”He normally goes home between 2 and 3 o'clock in the night. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, "That's the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don't make the money, no one is going to give it to you. "London taxi drivers not only " take" but also " give". Every summer hundreds of children from London will go for a day at the sea—by taxi! Their rides are paid by the taxi drivers, and these fares all go to the " London Taxi Fund for Underprivileged Children. " At the sea, they are met by the mayor, and a lunch party is also held in honour of the taxi drivers and the children.

They do not cost as much to travel on. Even though they may not move as fast as airplanes and trains, they sometimes take people between two places faster. This is because they travel on a more direct way, or may leave more often, or at better times.57._____Buses come in different sizes. A small bus can carry only eight or ten people. A large one might have seats for fifty to seventy people and have standing room for more.58._____Thousands of yellow school buses carry millions of children to school every year.

Reading （A）Imagine that the genome(基因组) is a book. The book consists of 23 chapters with thousands of stories made up of paragraphs, words and letters on different levels. There are one billion words in the book, which makes it longer than 5,000 volumes the size of this book. Or as long as 800 Bibles. If I read the genome out to you at the rate of one word per second for eight hours a day, it would take me a century. If I wrote out the human genome, one letter millimeter, my text would be as long as the River Danube. This is an enormous document. A huge volume, a cook book of great length, and it all fits inside the extremely small nucleus(核) of a tiny cell that fits easily upon the head of a pin.The idea of the genome as a book is not, strictly speaking, even a metaphor (比喻). It is true to a great extent. A book is a piece of digital information, written in one-directional form and defined by a code that translates a small alphabet of letters into a large dictionary of meanings through the order of their groupings. So is a genome. The only complications is that all English books read from left to right, while some parts of the genome read from left to right, and some from right to left, though never both at the same time.While English books are written in words of different lengths using twenty-six letters, genomes are written entirely in three-letter words, using only for letters. And instead of being written on flat pages, they are written on long chains of DNA molecules （分子）. The genome is a very clever book, because in the right conditions it can both photocopy itself and read itself. ( ) 31.How do human genomes read according to the passage?A. Only from left to right.B. Only from right to left.C. From both directions at the same time.D. From one direction at a time.( ) 32. We can learn from the passage that the human genome_______.A.is as long as the River DanubeB.can be easily placed on the head of a pinC.is coded with alphabet of four lettersD.is smart enough to read and take photos of itself( ) 33. It can be concluded that the passage is mainly written for ______.A. specialists in the field.B. general readersC. natural scientistsD. readers with academic background ( )34. The real purpose of the author’s comparison of the genome to a book is ______.A.to focus on the differences between the twoB.to lay emphasis on the similarities between the twoC.to simplify the concept of the human genomeD.to give an exact description of the genome( )35. Which of the following sentences is wrong?A.Genomes are written entirely in three-letter words, using only four lettersB.The idea of the genome as a book is only a metaphor.C.Genomes are written on long chains of DNA molecules.D.English books are written in words of different lengths using twenty-six letters.(B)36. ______Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the aim of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life. Life is varied, so is education. As soon as we realize the fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a proper system of education.37. _______In some countries with advanced industries, they have free education for all. Under this system, people, whether they are rich or poor, clever or foolish, have a chance to be educated at universities or colleges. They have for some time thought, by free education for all. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough. We find in such countries many people with university degrees refuse to do what they think is “low” work done with one’s hands.38. _______But we can easily understand that the work of an uneducated farmer is as important as that of a professor. We can live without education, but we should die if none of us grew crops. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns. If everyone was ashamed to do service work, the professors would have to waste much of their time doing housework.39. _______On the other hand, if all the farmers were completely uneducated, their production would remain low. As the population grows larger and larger in the modern world, we would die if we did not have enough food.40. _______In fact, when we say all of us must be educated to fit ourselves to life, it means that all must be educated: firstly, to realize that everyone can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability; secondly, to understand that all jobs are necessary to society and that it is bad to be ashamed of one’s own work or to look down upon someone else’s; thirdly, to master all the necessary know-how(技能) to do one’s o wn job well. Only such education can be called valuable to society. Ⅴ.Translation1.外国人学习中文不容易。

Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling. A single bright light shines through heavy rain falling around visitors. The mist. The damp air. The noise. It feels like a mighty storm is pouring down. But the storm is inside. And visitors aren't getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology. With a tracking system that senses movement and stops the rain wherever visitorsmove, it does just that. Light and sound produce an experience that feels both natural and foreign. The exhibit is moving on to Atlanta next month. I urge you to visit before then. It's time to experience the Rain Room for yourself!Welcome to the Rain Room●The Rain Room features falling water.

Shortly after Streng sat down to pose, the piece of ice broke off and floated into the water.“I thought it was safe. One girl had been on it and then two girls at the same time, and it was very secure with them. When I got on it, it started to shake and a wave was coming in. A very large wave came in and made the throne kind of shake, and I could tell that I was slipping off,” Streng told ABC News.Streng’s story went hot after her 24-year-old granddaughter Catherine tweeted a text mess- age exchange she had with her father about the incident. “My grandmother almost got lost at sea in Iceland today!”Catherine, who teaches English in Seoul, South Korea, explained via Twitter that her father described the scene vividly. He has a PhD in English, and described the event in the following words, “She climbed to the throne after a wave had pulled back and left it briefly exposed on the beach. Then a wave washed in and removed the ice throne, rocking it from side to side. When the wave left, it lifted the throne and carried her out into the sea with the tide.”Luckily for the Streng family, Randy, a licensed boat captain from Florida with knowledge of water rescue strategies witnessed the whole thing, and was able to save the day （转危为安）.14.Where was the grandma when her son was taking a picture for her?A. On a crownB. In an iceboatC. At a throne beachD. On an iceberg15.How did Catherine spread this accident?A. By posting the text message exchange with her father.B. By drawing a vivid picture.C.

The Earth is about 4.5 billion years old! In honour of our planet, former U. S. Senator Gaylord Nelson decided we needed a special day to celebrate and learn how to care for our environment. He wrote letters to many schools about the day he planned because he knew kids like you would help.On April 22, 1970, the first Earth Day was held. Many environmental laws were passed, and people all over the country made promises to protect the environment.Since then, Earth Day has spread around the world and people are working together to create cleaner air and energy to take care of Mother Nature. Learn how you, your family and friends can start making a difference too!Earth Day is now celebrated by hundreds of millions of people in more than 180 countries. Here are some ways that you can help re-energize the Earth and celebrate too!·Visit a nature conservancy (保护协会). Nature conservancies teach us how to preserve our natural history.·Have an Earth Day block party! Invite neighbourhood kids to plant gardens or trees or pick up trash. Then celebrate your achievements with some Earth Day' treats and nature music.·Challenge your family to "go green". Walk, bicycle, carpool or take the bus to reduce greenhouse gases and get outdoors!·Wear green, a nature or Earth Day T-shirt to help spread the word about caring for our environment.·Make a "planet promise" to reduce your energy use and recycle.We hope you'll use some of these ideas during the week of April 22 to celebrate and give back to the Earth that gives so much to us.18.

In New York City, a nonprofit agency called Covenant House tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents.The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. Delores Clemens says, “that's not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he's going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Cuddle your baby. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little cuddling and a little love. And it works!”Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. Around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from Covenant House's Mommy and Me class every year.In class, with her baby son is Natasha. She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.The World Health Organization says the United States has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen. That is higher than other developed countries, as well as some developing ones. By comparison, northern neighbor Canada has fourteen births and southern neighbor Mexico has eighty-two.22. What is the text mainly about?A. Parents who are a child’s first teachers.B. A class where teens learn mothering and are mothered.C. A nonprofit agency that offers a more secure life.D.

Riding the train can be a real adventure. That is how I feel every time I take Amtrak. I often take a four—hour trip to visit my children. Every time I take this trip I never know what will happen.Last week when I was on the train and over an hour into the train ride, there was a man sitting by himself in the back of the train carrying on a mobile phone conversation—in another language. It was loud and disturbed most of the people on the train. I think it was annoying.Fortunately I sat next to a wonderful old lady who was taking a two-day trip by train. She said her two daughters were distraught at the thought of her driving for three days to reach her home, although she had no trouble driving. The train ride wasthe only choice for her. She loved to look out of the window and watch the world go by on the train.She was fun to talk to and asked me when my children started being parents. That is a very good question. Both of us are old and have children. She asked that same question from time to time.There are always many people on the train from all walks of life, different countries, and many languages. Riding the train is a great way to increase your knowledge and take in all kinds of cultures. If you get hungry, you can buy food in the food car at any time. If you need to use the restroom there is always one available.It sure beats driving the car, which has to stop for food and restrooms. And it is better than taking the bus.4.

A wonderful ladyCYou can’t imagine how terrible I felt at that time. A month before my first marathon(马拉松), one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacherrequired us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.The idea that I was “not athletic”stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamed that I couldn’t even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!”By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.By mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.8.

Failure is the mother of success.C. A winner is one with a great effort of will.D. A man owes his success to his family support.DThe new garbage sorting(分类)regulation has taken effect in Shanghai starting July 1. Many citizens are still confused about the classification of the four different types of trash. Thankfully, authorities have released an official guideline to explain the new rules.The guideline, published by the Shanghai Greenery and Public Sanitation Bureau, provides a rather clear definition on the four kinds of waste: recyclable waste, harmful waste, household food waste and residual(剩余的) waste.Harmful waste, as the name suggests, includes various poisonous materials like used batteries, light bulbs, out-of-date medicines, paint and pesticides.Household food waste—which is translated to “wet trash” in Chinese—refers to food leftovers, rotten food, pet food, fruit peels, remains of TCM herbs and flowers.Paper, plastic, glass, metal and textiles(纺织品)are counted as recyclable waste.The definition of residual waste is a little confusing. Anything that is not listed above belongs to this category.As specific as the new guideline is, residents still have a hard time sorting trashcorrectly and are finding it challenging to memorize them all. For instance, both plastic bottles and bubble tea or coffee cups are plastic materials. However, the former falls the category of recyclable waste and the latter belongs to residual waste. To save the hassle(麻烦), some netizens have come up with their own way to sort trash.“We should do this from a pig’s angle,”commented one netizen. “Those edible(可食用的)for pigs are household food waste. Those even pigs don’t want to eat are residual waste. If a pig consumes something and dies of it, then something must be harmful waste. Those that can be sold and the money we gain can be used to purchase pigs are recyclable waste.”The new regulation came into effect on July 1. Those who do not sort their trash properly will be fined RMB 200.12. What do the old coats that you want to throw away belong to?A. Harmful waste.B. Wet trash.C. Recyclable waste.D. Residual waste.13. What is the netizen’s attitude towards the new garbage sorting regulation?A. SeriousB. Humorous.C. Delightful.D. Uncertain.14. Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?A. Pet food belongs to harmful waste.B. All the citizens are quite clear about the classification of the four types of trash.C. A pig can even define the four kinds of waste.D. Some citizens find it difficult to sort trash correctly.15. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The four sorts of garbage are forbidden in Shanghai.B. Shanghai garbage sorting enforcement begins.C. People are still confused about garbage sorting.D. The netizens in Shanghai support the garbage sorting policy.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。
