（共15小题；每小题2分, 共30分）ACarl Linnaeus(1707-1778) was born in a peasant village in Sweden. His father was a pastor(牧师) as well as an amateur botanist. Interestingly, his father changed his name to Linnaeus because of a linden tree he admired. It was common to use the name of something in nature for your last name in that culture. Carl followed in the footsteps of his father. Books of botany became available for him to study.In 1583, an Italian named Andrea Cesalpino(1519-1603) wrote a book that was simply called De Plantis. Cesalpino was the first person to write a significant modern classification of plants since the Greek, Theophrastus, in about 340 B. C.. Before Cesalpino, plants had been classified by their location, such as marsh plants, moorland(open plains) plants or foreign plants. Cesalpino classified them according to their structure, which was a beginning of precise scientific classification.Then a Swiss botanist named Gasperd Bauhin(1560-1624) developed another plant classification in his book, Exposition of Plants in 1623. This was a very large study of 6000 species(物种). He had studied Cesalpino’s work carefully and improved it. He attempted to classify all known plants up to that time.The Englishman John Ray(1627-1705) toured England with a friend named Francis Willoughby from 1663 to 1666. Together, they wrote the book Catalogue of English Plants. He included 18000 plant species by the time of his death. He divided all flowering plants into monocotyledons and dicotyledons. He also noticed the leaves were veined differently. He carefully described plant locations, and possible uses in medicine.Carl Linnaeus obtained a degree in medicine and his interest in the use of the plant and herbs for medicinal use was natural. His professors realized Linnaeus was a brilliant student so he was allowed to lecture on botany in his medical school in Uppsala, Sweden. By the age of 25, he had decided he would invent an original classification system that would classify all living things. By age 28, he wrote the book System of Nature. Here he introduced a classifying system for every plant and animal by class, order, and species. His classification is now used everywhere in the world.56. Who wrote the book De Plantis？A.

A study done by the University of Michigan School of Public Health indicated the fact that seems to hold true for the general population. Babies are the group suffering most from colds, averaging more than six colds in their first years. Boys have more colds than girls up to age three. After the age of three, girls are more susceptible than boys, and teenage girls average three colds a year to boy’s two.The general frequency of colds continues to decline into adults. Elderly people who are in good health have as few as one or two colds annually. One exception is found among people in their twenties, especially women, who show a rise in cold infections(感染), because people in this age group are most likely to have young children. Adults who delay having children until their thirties and forties experience the same sudden increase in cold infections.The study also found that economics(经济状况) plays an important role. As income increases, the frequency at which colds are reported in the family decreases. Families with the lowest income suffer about a third more colds than families at the upper end. Lower income generally forces people to live in closer quarters than those typically occupied by wealthier people, and crowding increases the opportunities for the cold virus to travel from person to person. Low income may also influence diet. The degree to which poor nutrition affects susceptibility to colds is not yet clearly proved, but an inadequate diet is suspected of lowering resistance generally.60. What factors cause people to catch colds easily?A. Age and pregnancy.B. Health and pregnancy.C. Health and economics.D. Age and economics.61. Why does the lowest income lead to the rapid spread of colds?A. Because poor people can’t afford to go to see a doctor.B. Because balanced diet has definitely affected poor people.C. Because people with the lowest income have limited living space.D. Because cold virus don’t have opportunities to travel in poor families.62. How does the study prove that age plays a part in susceptibility to colds?A. Using comparison.B. Using graphs.C. Using description.D. Using argument.63. What can you learn from the passage?A. Families with the lowest income suffer less colds than rich families.B. The general frequency of colds are likely to increase among the poor.C. Women in their twenties are most likely to avoid cold infections.D. The general frequency of colds continue to rise into the adults.CThe Great LakesThe United States has allkinds of lakes, large and small.But most of the fresh water inAmerica is in five large lakes inthe northeast and central US.These are the “Great Lakes”:Lake Huron, Lake Erie, LakeSuperior, Lake Michigan, andLake Ontario. There is enoughwater here to cover the US 10feet deep.Travel in the Great Lakes area is easy because the lakes and many rivers are connected. Water transportation is quicker and cheaper than travel by land. For this reason, many industries such as steel and car factories were started around the Great Lakes about 100 years ago. But because of the many factories, the lakes and rivers have become filled with dangerous chemicals and oil. In 1969, the Cuyahoga River was so oily and dirty that it caught fire and burned for many hours. Now people are trying to clean up the lakes and rivers. The water is becoming clearer and cleaner, and there are more fish. But there are still chemicals which are dangerous to human health.Isle Royale National Park, an island in Lake Superior, is very wild.Visitors must travel several hours by boat to get there. The waters of Lake Superior are cold and dangerous. Several ships have hit underwater rocks and sunk. Now divers come to explore them. And people come to explore the island’s forests.Visitors, who stay in one of the 36 campgrounds on Isle Royale, are sometimes awakened at night by the plaintive cry of a wolf. These wolves came across the ice-covered lake to the island in the late 1940s. The wolves hunt small animals. Sometimes they also kill moose. Isle Royale is a good place for scientists to study these animals.There are also no cars on Isle Royale, and no people live there all year around. But every summer thousands of vacationers hike along the wooded tracks, watch the abundant wildlife, and camp in the original wilderness.64. Why did many factories start around the Great Lakes about 100 years ago?A. Because people were trying to clean up the lakes and rivers.B. Because there was enough water in the Great Lakes area.C. Because there was low cost and fast shipping industry.D. Because the water became very clear and clean.65. What does the underlined word “there” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Lake Superior.B. Lake Huron.C. Cuyahoga River.D. Isle Royale.66. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Wild animals are absent on Isle Royale island.B. The Great Lakes provide US with enough water.C. The Great Lakes are still heavily polluted at present.D. Settlers enjoy hiking on Isle Royale all year around.67. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A. B. C.D. CP: Central Point P: Point SP: Sub-point(次要点)DWe are not born doubting ourselves. We learn to do it. In fact, we are usually taught to doubt ourselves. We can learn some ways that allow us to become more accepting of ourselves. Following are two behaviors that might explain the reasons why you can ’t move towards greater self-acceptance.One thing that might cause you not to accept yourself is over-generalizing about something you ’ve done that you don’t like. For example, if you fail a test you might generalize and say, “I’m really a stupid person.” When you do this you are making a statement about all of you all of the time and not just about this one situation at this time. Instead, you might decide that your grade on this test in this subject at this time was indeed poor, and then go on to decide what you want to do about your poor grade, if anything. Getting stuck in over-generalizing discourages you from taking steps that might allow you to do better on the next exam and to build an expectation of future failure.Having standards that are impossibly high is a second way you can not accept yourself. It may not come as a surprise to you that most of us are more demanding of ourselves than we are of others. Somehow we can tolerate the fact that other people fail, that they aren ’t always kind, that they ’ve done things they aren ’t proud of, but we have difficulty accepting those very human aspects of ourselves. The need to be perfect is another way to set yourself up for failure and enhance the feeling that you are not acceptable. We all make mistakes. Accepting less than perfection simply means recognizing the limitations natural in being born a human being. Learn to value who you are rather than who you could become. Wouldn ’t it be overpowering if we always had to do what we imagine we could do? Nobody has the time and energy to do all of that. We must make choices about what we will pursue and do them the best we can under the circumstances, which aren ’t always ideal, by the way.68. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. We can feel that we are perfect when we set ourselves up for success.B. We can tolerate the fact that we ’ve done things we aren ’t proud of.C. Over-generalizing might encourage you to expect the future.D. Over-generalizing might cause you not to accept yourself.69. What is the author ’s attitude according to the passage?A. It ’s necessary for people to be perfect.CPPP SP SP SP CP P SP SP SP SPCPPP SP SP SP CP P P SP SP SPB. It’s acceptable for people to be imperfect.C. It’s strange for people to be born with limitation.D. It’s possible for people to do what they imagine.70. What has caused the lack of self-acceptance?A. Tolerance and high-level.B. Limitation and expectation.C. Over-generalization and high-standard.D. Extreme difficulty and complete failure.第二节阅读短文，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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
