If we didn’t see some rain soon, we would lose everything. It was on this day that I learned the true 38 _of sharing and 39_ the only miracle I had seen with my own eyes.I was in the kitchen making lunch when I saw my six-year-old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. Minutes after he disappeared 40 the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.I went back to making sandwiches, 41 that what he had been doing was completed. Moments later, 42 , he was once again toward the woods. This 43 went on for an hour—walked 44 to the woods, and ran back to the house.45 I couldn’t take it any longer, so I went out of the house quietly and46 him on his journey.As I leaned in （屈身）to spy on him. I saw the most 47 sight. Several large deer were in front of him. Billy walked right up to them. And I saw a tiny young deer lying on the ground _48 suffering from dehydration（脱水）and heat exhaustion. Lifting its head with 49 effort to drink up the water in my beautiful boy’s50 .When the water was 51 , Billy jumped up to run back to the house. I followed him back to a tap that we had52 off. Billy opened it all the way up and a small trickle （细流）began to creep out. When he stood up and began to53 , I was there in front of him. His little eyes were just filled with tears.“I’m not54 ,”was all he said.As the tears that rolled down his face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly 55 by other drops…more drops…and more.All I can say is that the rain that came that day saved our farm, just like one little boy saved deer.36.

Catching butterflies isn’t 24 , so I was proud of my collection. 25 there was one that I had yet to capture-the great orange tip. The problem was its 26 habitat: I could only watch these lovely insects 27 gracefully. No matter how high I climbed, these creatures were always just 28 my reach. With only a couple of days before we were to leave, I began to 29 hope of finding my great orange tip.One morning, I was at leave to wander the bush keeping a 30 eye out for my beauty. In the heat, butterflies of all sorts floated above the wildflowers on the hillside. 31 , the great orange tips remained high above the treetops. But then, I caught a flash of brilliant white out of the 32 of my eye. I looked up and there it was, about a meter away, 33 on a big red flower. I 34 in my tracks.

I could scarcely believe my eyes. 36 I reached in and grabbed it, with every intention of moving it into the killing jar. But my hand 37 as I reached for the jar. There was the brilliant bloom of orange on the tips of its glowing white wings, and I could feel the creature’s38 between my fingers.

She would 36 down and push my long hair out of the way, and then kiss my forehead.I don’t remember when it first started37 me-her hands pushing my hair that way, for they felt work-worn and rough 38 my young skin. Finally, one night, I s houted out at her, “Don’t do that any more-your hands are too rough!” she made no 39 and left quietly. But never again did my mother do it with that familiar expression of her 40 .With the passing years, my 41 returned to that night time after time. By then I 42 my mother’s hands and her goodnight kiss. Sometimes the incident seemed very 43 , sometimes far away, but always it was 44 in the back of my mind.The years have passed, and I’m not a little girl any more. Mom is in her seventies, and t hose hands I once 45 to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family.Now, Mom no longer has Dad and lives 46 . One night on Thanksgiving Eve, I found myself 47 to her house to spend the night with her. As I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand hesitantly ran across my face to 48 the hair from my forehead. Then a 49 , ever so gently , touched my forehead. I burst into tears.In my memory, thousands of times, I 50 the night my young voice complained. Catching Mom’s hand in hand, I told her how 51 I was for that night. I thought she’d remember52 I did. But Mom didn’t know what I was talking about. She had already forgotten and 53 long ago.That night, I fell asleep with a new 54 for my gentle mother and her caring hands.

It’s a weekly36 that my two little girls and I began years ago. Thursday has become our day to go out and make a positive 37 .My girls shouted “McDonald’s, McDonald’s” as we38 along a busy Houston road. Suddenly I 39 that almost every crossing I passed through was 40 by a panhandler(乞丐). And then it hit me all these panhandlers must be hungry too. Perfect! After we ate, I ordered a (an) 41 fifteen lunches and we set out to deliver them. We would pull 42 a panhandler, make a contribution, and tell him or her that we hoped things got better. Then we’d say, “ Oh, 43 … here’s lunch.”We handed our finial contribution to a small woman and then immediately 44 back in the opposite direction for home. 45 , the light caught us again and we were stopped at the same crossing where this small woman stood. I was 46 and didn’t know quite how to behave.She made her way to our car, “ No one has ever done47 like this for me before.” She said with48 . Feeling uneasy, and wanting to move the conversation along, I asked,” So, 49 do you think you’ll eat your lunch.”She just looked at me with her huge, tired brown eyes and said,” Oh honey, I’m not going to eat this lunch.” I was 50 , but before I could say anything, she continued, “You see, I have a little girl and sh e 51 loves McDonald’s, but I don’t have money. But you know what… tonight she is going to have McDonald’s!”I don’t know if the kids52 the tears in my eyes.

I 22 my way through bushes and tall weeds to the front door and rang the bell.I was glad that I had found him. In twenty minutes he 23 me right on all the 24 that had puzzled me. I was on the25 of leaving when I looked out of his study window and said, “You’re very fond of gardening, I see.”“No, I’m not,” he said. “ 26 , I love this garden, though. It’s 27 I always wanted it to be. I never t ouch it at all.”“It could be made lovely. It 28 a pity to let all this ground go to waste. But perhaps you don’t 29 that way?” said I.“I don’t.

My brother and I did all of it between us year after year. There was one right way and many wrong ways. Each blade(叶片) of grass was an enemy to be 32 by hand, not just cut off.

I like 37 it grow 38 its own way. I make no demands on it. I never disturb it, and it never disturbs me. It has 39 at last, and so have I.”“But the path is over grown.

2010届上海市高三英语二模汇编——AB篇（奉贤）(A)I am a good mother to three children, I have tried never to let my profession stand in the v/a> of being a good parent.I no longer consider myself the center of universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I was a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows （誓约）mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who loves you.

And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all. I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.65. How did the writer form her view of life?A. Through social experienceB. By learning from her friendsC.

The big envelope meant that the excellent university in Indiana had offered him a place in its Class of 2013. But the $51,300 annual fee is a big obstacle. So Mike and his parents are considering offers from several other colleges and are calculating the costs of tuition, housing and holiday trips home.This year, money is the driving factor for a growing number of high school seniors, who have to decide what colleges to attend this fall. Less jobs and plunging house prices have changed family spending.―We‘re excited that Mike got into eight great schools,‖ said Mike‘s father, an engineer at Microsoft. ―But if you consider going to school out of state, you‘ve got to think about all of theother costs: moving, flying back and forth for the holidays. You‘re looking at about $3,000 a year, just for travel.‖As families weigh their choices, some are going back to financial aid offices hoping help packages can be increased.Rachel Brown was happy to get a thick envelope from New York University (NYU). Although she has always wanted to live in Manhattan, she is seriously considering the University of California San Diego (UCSD), because of the high cost in New York.―The tuition for NYU is twice as much as UCSD,‖ said Rachel, 17. ―My mom doesn‘t want me to have a big debt when I graduate, and I don‘t want that either. I‘d have to take out a loan of $15,000. I‘ll check and see if there‘s any way that NYU can offer me any financial aid.‖More than 7.6 million American students have filled out the Free Application for Students Aid, a 19.9 percent increase over last year.This month the Federal Department of Education urged college financial aid officers to give more help to certain families. A record 30,428 students applied for 2,300 places at Stanford, partly because the university increased financial aid for families earning below $10,000.68.

I left my hotel early and drove south to the Bear Run Nature Reserve. As I arrived, I was immediately impressed by the charming Laurel Highlands and other natural sights. However, I was not there to enjoy beauty: I was there to see a house, one of the most famous houses in the world.The house I had come to see is Fallingwater. It is called Fallingwater because it was built over a waterfall. As most houses are built on soli d ground, this house‘s location instantly made it famous. When you approach the house, surrounded by forest, streams and mountains, it looks as though the clear blue water were flowing through it, since the stream rushes out from under theground floor of the building.The house was designed by the architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, for businessman Edgar Kaufman and his family. As I toured the house, I learnt that it took Wright three years to build the place. The Kaufman family had asked him to design them a home in the middle of the countryside where they could enjoy the sights and sounds of the natural world. Though they lived in the city, they loved to come to the mountains to spend some time in the peace and quiet of nature, where they could go camping in the forest and play in the stream with their children. In fact, they loved the water so much that they asked Wright to design a house that would let them view the beautiful waterfall every day.Many people have suggested that this incredible building is a work of art, and I would agree that this beautiful house is a masterpiece of design. It also demonstrates how important it is to live side-by-side with nature and to respect it rather than try to dominate it.65. ______ impressed the author first as he arrived at the location of Fallingwater.A. The beauty of natureB. The sight of the waterfallC. The designer of the houseD. The preservation of the environment66.

But thanks to savvy driving, they consume proportionately less gasoline the rest of the nation. Here, some tips from the Golden State that will help drivers all over the country to get up to 25% more miles per gallon! By SUSAN NESTORFREEW AY FRENZY●Try to maintain a steady speed — especially on freeways and expressways. Never exceed asteady 55 mph. Varying speed by as little as 5mph can reduce mileage by 1.5 miles per gallon.Avoid constant lane changes to ―get ahead.‖●Buy radial tyres. If you do a lot of expressway driving, they can increase mileage by as much as 10%. Your fuel savings will pay for the higher tyre price.ON CITY STREETS● Plan your route. City driving consumes about 50% more fuel than highway driving (100% more in crowed traffic). Always choose a route with synchronized traffic signals to get the best run for your money.● Avoid unnecessary braking. Anticipate（预期）traffic light changes; it takes a lot of extra gas to get the car up to speed again.COLD●In winter, keep the car in a garage. It will start up easier, and start-up time is when you use the most gasoline. No garage? Cover the engine compartment with an old blanket or rug to shield it from cold winds; remove before starting up.●Remove all ice and snow.Driving in snow consumes more gas anyway; no sense haulingaround extra weight.65. All these above are ______ for drivers.A. noticesB. tipsC. lessonsD. advertisements66. Highway driving can use about ______ fuel than city driving.A. 20% moreB. 20% lessC. 50% moreD. 50% less67. Which of the following is TRUE?A. In winter, you will have difficulty starting up a car if it is kept in a garage.B. Drivers should avoid necessary breaking and constant lane changes.C. A steady 65 mph is the ideal speed to save gasoline.D. Radial tyres can help increase mileage in expressway driving.(B)Martin Luther King, Jr., is well known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous speeches, among them his moving ―I Have a Dream‖ speech. But few people know much about King‘s childhood, Martin Luther as he was called was born in 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia, at the home of his maternal grandfather. Martin Luther‘s grandfather, the Reverend A.D. Williams, purchased their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, 28 years before Martin Luther was born. The Reverend A.D. Williams, an eloquent speaker, played an important role in the community because so many people‘s lives centered around the church. He allowed his church and his home to be used as a meeting place for a number of organizations dedicated to the education and social advancement of blacks. Martin Luther grew up in this atmosphere, with his home being used as community gathering place, and was no doubt influenced by it.Martin Luther‘s childhood was not especially memorable. His father was a minister and his mother was a musician. He was the second of three children, and he attended all-black schools in a black neighbourhood. The neighbourhood was not poor, however, Auburn Avenue was the main artery through a prosperous neighbourhood that he had come to symbolize achievement for Atlanta‘s black people. It was area of banks, insurance companies, builders, jewelers, tailors, doctors, lawyers and other black-owned or black-operated businesses and services. Even in the face of Atlanta‘s segregation (种族隔离), district thrived. Dr. King never forgot the community spirit he had known as a child, nor did he forget the racial prejudice（歧视）that was a seemingly insurmountable barrier that kept black Atlantans from mingling with whites.68. This passage mainly gives an account of ______.A. the prejudice that existed in AtlantaB. Martin Luther‘s grandfatherC. Martin Luther King‘s childhoodD. the neighbourhood where King grew up69. According to the author, King was influenced by ______.A. community spiritB. black lawyerC. his motherD. his grandfather‘s speeches70.

This passage tells us that Martin Luther King, Jr. ______.A. had a difficult childhoodB. was a good musician when he was a boyC. loved to listen to his grandfather speakD. grew up in a relatively rich area of Atlanta65～67 BDD 68～71 CACD（卢湾）(A)In a new study, 186 four-year-old kids were given regular carrots and, on other lunch days, they were given the same vegetables renamed X-ray Vision Carrots. On the latter days, they ate nearly twice as many.The study suggests the influence of these names might persist. Children continued to eat about 50 percent more carrots even on the days when they were no longer labeled as anything special.The research, funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, was presented at the annual meeting of the School Nutrition Association in Washington, D.C..―Cool names can make for cool foods,‖said the lead author Brian Wansink of Cornell University. ―Whether it be ‗power peas‘or ‗dinosaur broccoli trees‘, giving a food a fun name makes kids think it will be more fun to eat. And it seems to keep working —even the next day,‖Wansink said.Similar results have been found with adults. A restaurant study showed that when the Seafood Filet was changed to Romantic Hawaii, sales increased 28 percent and taste rating increased by 12 percent. ―Same food, but different expectations, and a different experience,‖ said Wansink, author of ―Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think.‖The study was conducted in pre-schools, but the researchers believe the same naming tricks can work with children at home.―I‘ve been usi ng this with my kids,‖ said researcher Collin Payne, ―Whatever sparks(激发) their imagination seems to spark their appetite.‖65. Those four-year-old kids ate ________ when the carrots were renamed X-ray Vision Carrots.A. twice more carrotsB. nearly double carrotsC. about 50 percent more carrotsD. as m any carrots as they used to66. According to the passage, _______ make(s) kids think it will be more fun to eat.A. power peasB. dinosaur broccoli treesC. fun names of foodD. cool foods67.

But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm — the first mobile film festival.The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length — ideal for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent jury then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.●New PlatformsThe awards highlight the increasing impact thatmobile phones are making in the entertainment industry.Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films.They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screentheir work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasinglybeing seen as a new platform for these short works.It is a good place for anyone who wants to expressthemselves and find a way to have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!●New Technology AdvancesMoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thing that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.69. At the first MoFilm, ________.A. movies in the theater got their recognitionB. more than 100 countries took part in the competitionC. ideal films were five minutes or less in lengthD. t he winner was chosen by experts‘ voting70.

Recently more and more hospitals and clinics have been tapping into the power of music - not only to comfort patients, but to help them heal as well. Welcome to the world of music therapy.After each of the two world wars, musicians visited hospitals and played instruments for injured soldiers suffering from emotional and physical pain. Today‘s music therapists continue this practice, playing instruments such as guitars and harps to bring comfort to their audiences.Therapist Eric Mammen encourages his patients at a children‘s hospital to participate with him as he plays. During visits with 13-year-old cancer patient Lawrence Garcia, Mammen encourages Garcia to beat on electric drums while he plays the guit ar. The therapy won‘t cure his cancer, but it does, according to Garcia‘s mom, take away much of the boy‘s depression.Music therapy can elevate patients‘ moods and ease the symptoms of depression according to the American Music Therapy Association. Other benefits include relieving pain, calming tension, aiding sleep, counteracting worry or fear, and easing muscle tension.Jose Haro personally experienced the benefits of music therapy when he was recovering from heart surgery. During his recovery, he played a piano whose keys lit up, indicating which keys to touch to play along with the background music. Soon, he was playing tunes and noticing something strange. ―I was searching for my pain.‖ He says of his experience, ―but it was gone.‖While Haro‘s experie nce provides an evidence of the power of music to relieve pain, scientific research has proven music also helps patients with Alzheimer‘s disease and arthritis.In addition, music therapy helps premature (早产的) babies. Doctors are tapping into a powerful way to teach premature babies that haven‘t yet learned how to suck. Doctors use a device that comforts the babies by playing music when they suck on a pacifier (奶嘴). Soon, the babies learn to suck in return for music, gaining weight faster and going home earlier than those who don‘t use the device.Even perfectly healthy people are discovering the power of music to calm and heal. Drum circles attract people who find stress relief in pounding out rhythms. Wh ile music isn‘t a cure-all, it does make life a little easier.68. In the first paragraph, the underlined phrase ―tapping into‖ ca n be replaced by ―________‖.A. discussing onB. looking forC. showing interest inD. making use of69. According to the passage, Jose Haro ________.A. went through an obvious effect of music on his recoveryB. recovered from heart disease completelyC. felt no pain in his surgeryD. was asked to play the piano by his doctors70. From the passage, we know ________.A. musicians cured many soldiers after each of the two world warsB. Garcia found much comfort in music according to his momC. music can prevent people from suffering from arthritisD. the more music they listen to, the faster premature babies gain weight71.

"Some of them are building solar collectors for their energy course." These young scientists arc part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP). a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading, writing and math skills, and more.The children don‘t just plan any city. They map and analyze the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and predict its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations. "Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom." says the teacher who developed this program. 'They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, an elected "official" and "planning group" mates all the design decisions for the model city, and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser."CBEP is a set of activities, games and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving: observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the children's own standards.65. The Program is designed to .A. direct kids to build solar collectorsB. train young scientists for city planningC. develop children's problem-solving abilitiesD. train kids to be future architects66. An architect pays a weekly visit to the classroom to .A. find out kids' creative ideasB. discuss with the teacherC. give children lecturesD. help kids with their program67. Who is the designer of the program?A. An official.B. An architect.C. A teacher.D. A scientist.68. The children feel free in the program because they .A. can design future buildings themselvesB. have new ideas and rich imaginationC. are given enough time to design modelsD. need not worry about making mistakes(B)Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish chooses to live in water. To be human is to think. But chinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes. Otherwise, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education.。

2010届上海市高三英语二模汇编——C篇（奉贤）(C)Against the supposition 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 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 influence climate. 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 light after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone (臭氧) levels increased, aid ash from the fire fell onfar-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 soaked up 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.72. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may_______.A. result in a warming climateB. cause die forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the environment there73. Earlier studies about northern forest fires_________.A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC. suggest that people should take measures to protect environmentD. suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming74. The underlined phrase "soak up" in the last paragraph most probably means________.A. releasedB. absorbedC. createdD. disturbed75. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may__________.A. warm the climate as the supposition goesB. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD. help to gain more energy rather than release more energy72—75 ADBB（虹口）(C)Birds that are half-asleep—with one brain hemisphere (半球) alert and the other sleeping—control which side of the brain remains awake, according to a new study of sleeping ducks.Earlier studies have documented half-brain sleep in a wide range of birds. The brain hemispheres take turns sinking into the sleep stage characterized by slow brain waves. The eye controlled by the sleeping hemisphere keeps shut, while the wakeful hemisphere’s eye stays open and alert. Birds also can sleep with both hemispheres resting at once.Decades of studies of bird groups led researchers to predict extra alertness in the end-of-the-row sleepers which tend to be attacked more easily. Sure enough, the end birds tended to watch carefully on the side away from their companions. Ducks in the inner spots showed no preference for gaze direction.Also, birds napping at the end of the line depend on single-hemisphere sleep, rather than total relaxation, more often than inner ducks did. Turning 16 birds through the positions in a four-duck row, the researchers found that compared with 12 percent for birds in internal spots, outer birds half-asleep during some 32 percent of napping time.―We believe this is the first evidence for an animal behavio rally controlling sleep and wakefulness at the same time in different regions of the brain,‖ the researchers say.The results provide the best evidence for a long-standing assumption that single-hemisphere sleep evolved as creatures scanned for enemies. The preference for opening an eye on the lookout side could be widespread, he predicts. He’s seen it in a pair of birds napping side-by-side in the zoo and in a single pet bird sleeping by a mirror. The mirror-side eye closed as if the reflection were a companion and the other eye stayed open.Useful as half-sleeping might be, it’s only been found in birds and such water animals as dolphins, whales, and seals. Perhaps keeping one side of the brain awake allows a sleeping animal to surface occasionally to avoid drowning.Studies of birds may offer unique insights into sleep. Jerome M. Siegel of the UCLA says he wonders if birds’ half-brain sleep ―is just the tip of the iceberg.‖ He supposes that more examples may turn up when we take a closer look at other species.72. According to the passage, birds often half sleep because ______.A. they have to watch out for possible attack sB. their brain hemispheres take turns to restC. the two halves of their brain are differently structuredD. they have to constantly keep an eye on their companions73. What is implied about the example of a bird’s sleeping in front of a mirror?A. An imagined companion gives the bird a sense of security.B. Birds prefer to sleep in pairs for the sake of their security.C. The phenomenon of birds napping in pairs is widespread.D. A single pet bird enjoys seeing its own reflection in the mirror.74. While sleeping, some water animals tend to keep half awake in order to ______.A. alert themselves to the approaching enemyB. emerge from water now and then to breatheC. be sensitive to the ever-changing environmentD. avoid being swept away by rapid currents75. By saying ―just the tip of the iceberg‖, Siegel suggests that ______.A. half-brain sleep has something to do with icy weatherB. the mystery of half-brain sleep is close to being solvedC. most birds living in cold regions tend to be half sleepersD. half-brain sleep may exist among other species72. A 73. A 74.B 75. D（黄浦）(C)Sometimes people recall past events differently from how they happened. Have you ever confused dates and events from your life, or people’s names? Don’t be too hard on yourself if this is the case; it happens to almost everyone. Every day, our brain processes an amazing amount of information. In fact, all our experiences are based on the way our brain interprets the information it receives from our senses. It is impossible to store all of this information, so some of it gets lost. The parts that remain make up our memories. All our thoughts and memories depend on the way our senses work, and we cannot always trust everything our senses tell us.If you have ever tried to make your own short film on a digital camera, you will have noticed that the images you record are often blurry(模糊不清). To stop the same thing from happening when we see things with our own eyes, our brain is always filling in the blanks. Before our eyes can even focus on an object, our brain has created its own picture of it so that we can move smoothly from looking at one thing to another without the world looking strange. If we are moving quickly or are not focusing properly, our brain may not correctly guess what is around us.Memory is the way we store the information that our senses have experienced. As we have discussed above, our senses do not always see things accurately, so our memory is just how we store our interpretations of these experiences. When our brain takes in new experiences, it uses the information we retrieve from our memory as a reference. This means that we often do not remember the details of things but just the important parts. When we look at something, we often do not really look closely at it, but we merely look at the different hints that help us indentify it.This also happens with our hearing and speaking. It is natural for students of English to confuse the word ―kitchen‖, with the familiar word ―chicken‖. As the sounds are similar, the mind mistakenly identifies the new word with the one that is familiar. This is perhaps the most common reason why people make mistakes when they learn a new language.72. Sometimes things people remember are quite different from how they really happened because ______.A. not all people are smart enoughB. the main part of the information gets lostC. people are too strict with themselvesD. information was processed incompletely73. Taking the short film on a digital camera for an example, the author means _____.A. images recorded by cameras could not be accurateB. brain may form an imagery picture without referenceC. blurry pictures are caused by too fast camera movementsD. the process of vision is an interpretive construct by the brain74. The underlined word ―retrieve‖ in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.A. recallB. changeC. borrowD. differ75. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE in terms of memory?A. Memory is exactly what senses have experienced.B. Memories are made up of the information remaining in minds.C. Memory is the way to store information experienced by senses.D. Memories sometimes can be obstacles to learning something new.72-75 DDAA（静安、杨浦、宝山、青浦）(C)A weather map is an important tool for geographers. A succession of three or four maps presents a continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts（冷暖空气团接触的锋）to determine whether an individual pressure area is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity. They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus, a most significant function of the map is to reveal a synoptic picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time.All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately. Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical area. They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms, floods, frosts, droughts, and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day ―outlook‖ which is a rough g uide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for the development of air masses, fronts, and storms.Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather predictions. With the use of electronic instruments and earth satellites, enormous gains have taken place recently in identifying and tracking storms over regions which have but few meteorological stations (气象站). Extensive experiments are also in progress for weather modification（改变）studies. But the limitations of modification have prevented meteorological results except in the seeding of super-cooled, upslope mountainous winds which have produced additional orographic (山岳形态的) precipitation on the windward side of mountain ranges. Nevertheless, they have provided a clearer understanding of the fundamentals of weather elements.72. By reading weather maps, students majoring in geography can .A. design a project of weather modificationB. interpret the weather condition before the time of observationC. obtain data on atmospheric conditions over a wide areaD. survey ever-changing fronts in local meteorological stations73. A thirty-day forecast is determined by examining .A. daily weather mapsB. upper air levelsC. satellite reportsD. changing fronts74. The observation of weather conditions by satellites is advantageous because ______.A. electronic instruments are usedB. it enables man to alter the weatherC. it makes weather prediction more time-consumingD. information not obtained readily otherwise can be gained75. At the present time, experiments are being conducted in .A. controlling and influencing weatherB. determining density of pressure groupsC. 30-day ―outlooks‖D. predicting storms72～75 CBDA(卢湾)(C)When I stepped out the plane from Miami into Charlotte, North Carolina, airport for a connecting flight home, I immediately knew something was wrong. Lots of desperate people crowded the terminal. I quickly learned that flights headed to the Northeast were called off because of a storm. The earliest they could get us out of Charlotte was Tuesday. It was Friday. A gate agent stood on the counter and shouted, ―Don’t ask us for help! We cannot help you!‖I joined a crowd that ran from terminal to terminal in search of a flight out. Eventually, I found six strangers willing to rent a van with me. We drove through the night to Washington, where I took a train the rest of the way to Providence.The real problem, of course, is that incidents like this happen every day, to everyone who flies, more and more often. It really gets to me, though, because for eight years I was on the other side, as a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines(TWA).I know the days are gone when attendants could be written up if we did not put the lines napkins with the TWA logo in the lower right-hand corner of the first-class diners’ trays. As are the days when there were three dinner options on flights from Boston to Los Angeles in economy class. When, once, stuck on a tarmac (机场停机坪) in Newark for four hours, a planeload of passengers got McDonald’s hamburgers and fries by thoughtfulness of the airline.I have experienced the decline of service along with the rest of the flying public. But I believe everything will change little by little, because I remember the days when to fly was to soar (翱翔). The airlines, and their employees, took pride in how their passengers were treated. And I think the days are sure to come back one day in the near future.72.Many people crowded the terminal because ________.A. they were ready to board on the planesB. something was wrong with the terminalC. the flights to the Northeast were canceledD. the gate agent wouldn’t help the passengers73. The writer got to Providence ________ at last.A. by airB. by vanC. by trainD. by underground74. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Incidents happened to those who fly quite often.B. The writer used to be a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines.C. Even a small mistake might cause complaints from passengers in the past.D. McDonald’s hamburgers and fries were among regular dinner options.75. What can be implied from the passage?A. The writer lived in Charlotte, North Carolina.B. The writer thought the service was not as good as it used to be.C. The writer with other passengers waited to be picked up patiently.D. Passengers would feel proud of how they were treated on the plane.72. C 73. C 74. D 75. B(闵行)(C)Whenever human populations have lived in forest areas, they have always cut down trees which they used for a number of purposes, for housing and ships and served as a source of heating fuel and timber. Growth of cities often meant expansion into forest areas, while even more trees were removed to provide space for agriculture. With the growing demand for paper, vast quantities of trees have also been cut down for paper production. These factors, along with many others, have been contributing to a dangerous phenomenon known as deforestation.In the last 5,000 years, humans have reduced forest from roughly 50 percent of the earth’s land surface to less than 20 percent. Most of this original, or old growth, forest cover is concentrated in three large areas: the Canadian and Alaskan boreal forest, the boreal forest of Russia, and the tropical forest of the northwestern Amazon Basin and the Guyana Shield. These areas comprise almost 70 percent of the world’s remaining original forest cover. In most places, the rate of deforestation is increasing, with the alarming result of 16 million hectares disappearing worldwide every year.Loss of forest does not just mean the decline of natural resources. There are several other factors that make deforestation seriously harmful to both the human and natural worlds. One of them is changes in the global climate. For example, forest clearance is releasing substantial volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as vegetation is burnt or decays. It has been suggested that this is a significant factor in global warming. Moreover, about 10 percent of the world’s tree species are in danger of extinction as a result of deforestation. Deforestation also threatens biological diversity through the destruction of wildlife habitats, which endangers a number of animal species and leads to their potential disappearance. Species are particularly easy to extinction in tropical rainforests because many species have few individuals per unit area, which makes reproduction more difficult. Finally, since forests play an important role in storing water and stabilizing soil, deforestation and the resulting change in land use cause soil erosion (腐蚀) and other forms of land degradation.72. The passage discusses all of the following EXCEPT the ________.A. causes of deforestationB. consequences of deforestationC. management of deforestationD. rate of deforestation73. The word ―diversity‖ in the last paragraph probably means ―________‖.A. varietyB. expansionC. developmentD. advantage74. Why does the author mention fuel and timber in Paragraph 1?A. To explain the rate of deforestation.B. To compare them with housing and ships.C. To show the dangers of deforestation.D. To illustrate the causes of deforestation.75. Which of the following sentences summarizes Paragraph 3 best?A. Deforestation threatens biological diversity.B. Deforestation has many harmful consequences.C. Deforestation causes changes in global climate.D. Deforestation should be stopped.72. C 73. A 74. D 75. B（浦东）(C)Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employers and the self-employed. Labor is one of the country's resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services wanted by the community.Although the size of the workforce depends a great deal on the size of the total population, there are several other influences which also affect it. The age distribution (分布) of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an balanced spread age distribution. If the population naturally grows rapidly, the number o birth greatly exceeds (超出) the number of deaths then as a tot al population increases proportion o the workforce declines.Sometimes a population is described as aging which means that the birch rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are insufficient numbers on young people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. In Chat situation the population is cop-heavy with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines where there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate.The age distribution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy) to provide a reasonable level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes, finance must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax revenue(税收) is relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.72. In the passage "labor force" is defined asA. people who are available to work and earn incomeB. self-employed people onlyC. people who are looking for an employmentD. employers who create job opportunities73. The conclusion which can be drawn from the second paragraph is that .A. a natural growth of population leads to a balanced workforceB. a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforceC. the larger the population. the higher the proportion of the workforceD. the workforce will be lower, if the population has a balanced age distribution.74. When a population is said to be aging. .A. there are more people retiring than those entering the workforceB. the birth rate must be growingC. there should be an oversupply of workforceD. There are more people entering the workforce than those retiring75. The population which is top-heavy with older people of a country.A. leads to the high rate of unemploymentB. results in low tax on the workforce membersC. affects employees 'incomesD. places pressure on the economy72. A 73. B 74. A 75. D（普陀）(C)The appeal of advertising to buying motives can have both negative and pos Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price be advertisement. For example, some advertisers have appealed to people's desire for better fuel economy for their cars by advertising automotive products that improve gasoline mi of the products work. Others are worthless and a waste of consumers' money.Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading. A few years ago a brand of bread was offered to dieters(节食者) with the message that there were fewer calories（热量单位，大卡）in every slice. It turned out that the bread was not dietetic (I适合于节食的), but just regular bread. There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin, but there were the same number of calories in every loaf.On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumer's real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurance may be sold by appealing to fear of loss. But fear of loss is the real reason for fire insurance. The security of knowing that property is protected by insurance makes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment for most people. If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans as well as the message in the ads, they will benefit from the advertising.Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation. Are the benefits of the product important enough to justify buying it? Advertising is intended to appeal to consumers, but it does not force them to buy the product. Consumers still control the final buying decision.72. Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless products by________.A. stressing their high qualityB. convincing him of their low priceC. maintaining a balance between quality and priceD. appealing to his buying motives73. The reason why the bread advertisement is misleading is that________.A. thin slices of bread could contain more caloriesB. the loaf was cut into regular slicesC. the bread was not genuine breadD. the total number of calories in the loaf remained the same74. It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer should________.A. think carefully about the benefits described in the advertisements ..B. guard against the deceiving nature of advertisementsC. be familiar with various advertising strategiesD. avoid buying products that have strong emotional appeal75. The passage is mainly about________.A. how to make a wise buying decisionB. ways to protect the interests of the consumerC. the positive and negative aspects of advertisingD. the function of advertisements in promoting sales72-75 DDAC（松江）(C)It is one of the greatest mysteries of nature. In case you haven’t noticed, all living things follow very definite, individual rhythms, all as regular as a clock, but what makes them regular?Though many scientists maintain that these rhythms are the result of some outside force like gravity or radiation or both, the results of most scientific researches agree with other scientists who believe that each living thing has its own built-in biological ―time clock.‖Take the mystery of migration for example. Scientists can’t really explain why many species of birds migrate in the autumn even though the temperature is still summery. The birds just seem to snub the comfortable weather that they are having. When a certain time comes, they travel south by the thousand. In spring time, they migrate northwards even though there probably is snow still covering the ground when they finally arrive. Something said ―go,‖ and they did.Animals that hibernate (冬眠) are obeying individual time clocks, too. When their clock indicates the time to take a winter’s nap, they do, and nothing can stop them. At a certain time in the spring, they wake up and come out regardless of the weather outside.Plants appear to have yearly rhythms, such as the sprouting of seeds, and they also have daily rhythms. Notice sometimes that plants raise their leaves in daylight and lower them at night.If you live along the California coast, you can easily observe a demonstration of this mysterious clock functioning regularly. There, from February to September, the highest tides occur exactly every fourteen and four-fifths days, and during these high tides, but at no other time, small silvery fish called grunions surf-ride a wave to the beach. There the female deposits her eggs in the sand and the male fertilizes them; then both hitch a wave-ride back to the sea. Exactlyfourteen and four-fifths days later, never before or after, the tiny eggs hatch, and the high tide carries the new babies out to sea.72. According to the passage, the mysterious rhythms result from______.A. the influence of gravity on living speciesB. the effect of radiation on living speciesC. the influence of a mysterious outer force on living speciesD. the internal mechanism inside the living species73. The underlined word "snub" in the third paragraph probably means______.A. fightB. ignoreC. symbolizeD. criticize74. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. Hibernating animals are obeying an internal time clock.B. The positioning of the leaves of some plants is due to the daily rhythms.C. The internal clock functioning is demonstrated in the reproducing habits of grunions.D. The yearly hibernation is more because of the weather influence than the biologicalfunctioning.75. The passage is mainly about____________.A. the rhythms of lifeB. the reasons of mysterious hibernationC. strange behaviors of speciesD. the timing for different events in the world of species72—75 DBDA（徐汇）(C)Most people in business have a strong sense that meetings are demanding more and more of their time. Fifty years ago meetings were barely necessary – the boss decided what was going to happen and told employees in a brief office memo.Now everything in business is discussed extensively in large meetings attended by anybody who has the remotest interest in the subject. The gradual erosion of formal systems of authority has increased the appetite for face-to-face meetings. Consultation and discussion has taken the place of direct instruction.The amount of travel to get to these meetings is increasing. More than nine million people passed through Heathrow(希思罗机场) in 2005 on the way to internal company events. As a consequence, corporate travel is a growing part of UK carbon emissions(排放). It would be easy to say we must reverse the trend towards more meetings to reduce the climate-change impact of modern business. Unfortunately, it is not going to be easy. Some interesting recent research shows that most of the attendees at corporate meetings do complain about the waste of time involved. But when they were questioned in private, the picture changes. Only 15 per cent of people rated their most recent meeting adversely. Though most attendees saw room for improvement, meetings were valuable both in helping build plans for action and in making employees feel part of the organization.But do these meetings have to be face-to-face? British Telecom recently presented some data on the success of its internal voice conferencing. In the most recent year, more than two million。
