模块综合测评(二)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AThe sound of music slowly fills the concert hall as an orchestra begins to play.The high，bright notes of a violin are followed by the low，rich sound of a cello.Then a drum starts thumping.But this is no ordinary orchestra.The violin is made from a salad bowl and pieces of wood.Its strings are held in place with a fork.A saxophone is made from a metal pipe and coins.The group is called the Recycled Orchestra.It's made up of 20 teens from the South American country of Paraguay.They live in Cateura，a small，poor village just outside Paraguay's capital，Asunción.The teens play famous pieces of classical music by Mozart and Beethove n. But they also play rock music by the Beatles and other groups.Judging by the sound，you'd never know their instruments are made from items tossed into the trash.“The world sends us garbage.We send back music，”says Favio Chávez.He is the music teacher who founded the Recycled Orchestra.For most of the 2,500 families in Cateura，the landfill is their livelihood.Many residents work as trash pickers.They search for scraps they can sell as recyclable materials.Nearly half the children in the area don't finish school because their parents need them to work.To keep the kids out of trouble，Chávez started a music school six years ago.But there were more kids than instruments，and there was no money to buy new instruments.A resourceful trash picker named Nicolás Gómez came to the rescue.A former carpenter，Gómez made a violin from scraps of debris.“I never imagined myself building an instrument like this，”he says.Soon，a whole orchestra was formed from recycled materials.The young musicians have been gaining attention outside Paraguay.They've given concerts in Brazil，Colombia，and Panama.They plan to perform in the U．ter this year，at the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix，Arizona.Thirteen-year-old Ada Rios plays the violin in the Recycled Orchestra.“When I listen to the sound of the violin，I feel butterflies in my stomach，”she says.“It's a feeling that I don't know how to explai n.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。

An announcement.BI once saw a TV programme at college about a scientist who used “drift bottles (漂流瓶)” to mark ocean currents. It was a rather boring programme. I was more interested to read an article about someone who found a bottle on a beach with a message inside. Like the drift bottles, it had been thrown into the sea — but 21 years before. I decided to find out more about such bottles, and I started work on this intriguing (非常有趣的) research.An early message in a bottle was thrown into the sea by Christopher Columbus during a terrible storm. He wrote about his discovery of America and expected that his message would be sent to the Queen of Spain. He wanted the news to reach her, but he thought he might be drowned (淹死) in the storm. In fact, he survived but the bottle was never found.I would be excited to find a message in a bottle, but in the 16th century, it could be dangerous. In those days, the British Navy (海军) used messages in bottles to send information about the enemy. When Queen Elizabeth Ⅰ found out that a boatman had opened a bottle containing one of these secret messages, she created a new job, Uncorker of Ocean Bottles. I was amazed to learn that anyone else who opened a bottle could be sentenced to death. It seems very strange to us now.A long time ago, before dating websites existed to help people find partners, a sailor in Sweden put this message in a bottle —“To someone beautiful and far away.” It was found by a young woman in Sicily. She answered the message —“I am notbeautiful, but it seems a miracle (奇迹) I found your message.” They began to write letters to each other, and eventually got married.Nowadays it's easy to communicate with anyone anywhere in the world, but I think people will still go on throwing bottles with messages into the ocean and guessing where the winds and the waves will carry them. And how romantic it would be to find a bottle with a message inside!24. Why did the author do some research on bottles thrown into the sea?A. He had found a message in one.B. He had read an article about one.C. He had to do a project on them at college.D. He had watched a TV programme about them.25. Christopher Columbus put a message into a bottle to .A. study ocean currentsB. report his discoveryC. ask for rescueD. try his luck26. How did the author feel about the 16th century punishment for opening ocean bottles?A. Frightening.B. Amusing.C. Astonishing.D. Satisfying.27. Why did the young woman in Sicily reply to the Swedish sailor's message?A. She wanted to have a pen friend.B. She felt she fitted his description.C. She failed to access a dating website.D. She was impressed by the bottle's journey.CGene Wolfe is one of the most admired and respected American science fiction and fantasy writers. He is also a productive writer of outstanding short fiction, whichis collected in many volumes over the last forty years, most recently in The Best of Gene Wolfe.Although Wolfe is not as well-known to readers as he once was, he has been the receiver of great praise, including three World Fantasy Awards, two Nebulas, and eight Hugo Award nominations (提名). Sci-fi author Harlan Ellison has called him, “no less than one of the finest, most original writers in the world today”, and the Encyclopedia of Science Fiction names him “quite possibly the most important” writer in the field of science fiction.Born in 1931, New York, Gene Wolfe moved frequently as a child, but spent most of his growing-up years in Texas. Wolfe began writing fiction in 1956, selling his first story,The Dead Man, to Sir magazine in 1965. He produced a vast amount of short fiction during the 1960s and 1970s, many of which were published in Damon Knight's Orbit anthologies. In 1972 Wolfe's groundbreaking The Fifth Head of Cerberus appeared. The story of human conquest (征服) upon two distant planets, the book examines issues of identity, individuality, and the results of colonialism upon both the colonized and the colonizer. The novel was later listed in David Pringle's 1985 list of The 100 Best Novels in science fiction for the period1949―1984.Many of his novels, The Shadow of the Torturer included, rely on a diary or letter to tell his story. In addition, Wolfe's early interest in mystery novels shines through in his ability to drop cleverly hidden clues (线索) that allow the reader to grasp at the possible narrative behind the narrative.By 1984 Wolfe was able to retire and devote himself full-time to his writing. Yet despite (尽管) all this, and despite the continuing respect of his colleagues, his work has become somewhat unfamiliar. Wolfe's admirers hope this fact will be at least somewhat improved by his most recent offering, The Wizard Knight, which falls within the fantasy type that is currently popular.28. What is Harlan Ellison's attitude toward Gene Wolfe?A. Concerned.B. Sympathetic.C. Admiring.D. Regretful.29. What do we know about The Fifth Head of Cerberus?A. It was well received.B. It was Gene Wolfe's first novel.C. It was published in Sir magazine.D. It was co-authored by David Pringle.30. Which has great influence on Gene Wolfe's writing style?A. His understanding of life.B. His childhood experiences.C. His colleagues' suggestions.D. His love for mystery fiction.31. What can we infer about Gene Wolfe from the last paragraph?A. His work has become less popular.B. He became famous for The Wizard Knight.C. His fans were disappointed to some degree.D. He stopped fantasy writing after his retirement.DThe word or phrase that you use to open your email account may provide a key to your personality as well as to your correspondence (信件), according to a British psychologist. Helen Petrie, professor of human / computer interaction (交互作用) at City, University in London, analysed the responses of 1,200 Britons who participated in a survey funded (提供资金) by CentralNic, an Internet domain name company. The results were recently published on CentralNic's website.Petrie identifies three main password “types”. “Family oriented” respondents numbered nearly half of those surveyed. These people use their own name or nickname, the name of a child, partner, or pet or a birth date as their password. They tend to be occasional computer users and have strong family ties. “They choose passwords that symbolize people or events with emotional value,” says Pe trie. One third of respondents were “fans”, using the names of athletes, singers, movie stars,fictional characters, or sports teams. Petrie says fans are young and want to attach themselves to the lifestyle represented by a celebrity. Two of the most popular names were Madonna and Homer Simpson. The third main group of participants are “cryptics” because they pick confusing passwords or a random (随机的) string of letters, numbers, and symbols such as “Jxa+157”. Petrie says cryptics are the most security-conscious group. They tend to make the safest but least interesting choices.Passwords are revealing for two reasons. First, because they are invented on the spot. “Since you are focused on getting into a system, for example your email account, you're l ikely to write down something that comes quickly to mind,” says Petrie. “In this sense passwords take advantage of things that are just below the surface of consciousness. Also, to remember your password, you pick something that will stick in your mind. You may unconsciously choose something of particular emotional importance.”32. How did Petrie draw her conclusions?A. By observing participants' reactions.B. By interviewing 1,200 people.C. By studying survey results.D. By doing an experiment.33. What do we know about people whose passwords are “family oriented”?A. They probably have large families.B. They are likely to be animal lovers.C. They tend to be social and emotional.D. They are probably infrequent computer users.34. What does Petrie say a bout the “cryptic” group?A. They have strong safety awareness.B. They lack imagination and creativity.C. They change their passwords regularly.D. They can't think of an interesting password.35. Why can passwords reveal our personalities?A. We choose words we will easily remember.B. We are willing to invent something personal.C. We are likely to value important experiences.D. We pick up a password after careful consideration.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。

AFor many people, fantasy isn't more than a story about a princess, a prince, kings and queens, who always have a happy ending. For me, fantasy is more than that. It makes people think that maybe the world can be different，that maybe in the past and in the future, they were or will be someone like that princess or prince who every one of us had dreamed of; and it makes that the world where we live，is not as boring as we thought.Many writers choose fantasy for their stories. If we read fantasy stories, maybe we'll see that they are made for little children. But they're not. The message of romance and love in them is not being understood by most of children that read them. They like the stories, but they don't catch the real message that the stories give. If we read fantasy books, or watch fantasy movies, we can get the message and tell it to our families.One thing that fantasy stories have，is the magic that makes everyone go into the story. You can imagine how that princess looks like or what is the color of the big castle. When we read these stories we use our imagination，not like while we are watching usual programs on TV. One kind of fantasy is science fiction. For me it's very interesting，because with science fiction we see all different thoughts of people about the future and that kind of things. Sometimes, we should think in fantasy and all the happiness it gives to everyone. If we do it constantly our world could have，every day，a bit more happiness.1．In the author's opinion，fantasy is ________.A. boring rather than interestingB. only a storyC. never more than a storyD. more than a story答案：D细节理解题。

AAs an old-fashioned explorer, Paul Salopek sets out on foot to circle the world. He is also a modern-day explorer. On top of a few clothes, a small first-aid kit and notebooks, he is carrying a recorder, a video camera, a small computer and a satellite phone — a telephone that connects to a satellite and can be used in many places where cell-phones don’t work.The journey is long: 21,000 miles! It will take seven years to complete it.Salopek was born in California and spent his childhood in Mexico. He says he has always liked to travel and doesn’t like to rush. At the age of fourteen, he climbed Mount Whitney in California and crossed the state’s Sierra Nevada Mountains alone. When he was fifteen years old, he walked the length of Death Valley. He once rode a mule 2,000 miles through mountains in Mexico.A longtime reporter, Salopek has reported from Africa, Asia and Mexico. Now 51 years old, he plans to keep writing. As he travels around the world, he is writing stories about the people he meets and the way they live. He looks for how people find local solutions to big problems such as lack of food and water. He also records the sounds he hears and takes photos of the sky and the Earth’s surface.The long walk started in the Rife Valley in Ethiopia in East Africa. Many consider East Africa to be home to the first humans, who lived 160,000 years ago.Salopek is retracing the paths our ancestors took as they left Africa and settled in parts of the Middle East, Europe, Asia and the Americas. As Salopek is walking, he is learning more about himself and all of humankind.21. The underlined phrase “on top of” in the first paragraph can be replaced by ______.A. on the top ofB. in contrast toC. in addition toD. on the basis of22. The author develops the third paragraph mainly by ________.A. providing examplesB. making comparisonsC. making a careful analysisD. following the order of time23. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Paul Salopek: Following Man’s First FootstepsB. Paul Sa lopek: Reflecting People’s Real LivesC. Paul Salopek: Going for a Seven-year StudyD. Paul Salopek: Looking back upon the ChildhoodBLife in the ClearTransparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet—as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “The se animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless they’re eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It’s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light, bouncing itaway from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light, at least not very much, Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a trans parent object doesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water. You don’t see it ----you see the things behind it.To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments, so its tissues won’t absorb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials----skin, fat, and more----and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see—through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-lie(果冻状的)material and spread themselves over it .Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how th ey’re doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn a non-transparent milky white.24. According to Paragraph 1, transparent animals_______.A. stay in groupsB. can be easily damagedC. appear only in deep oceanD. are beautiful creatures25. The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means__________.A. silentlyB. graduallyC. regularlyD. completely26. One way for an animal to become transparent is to ________.A. change the direction of light travelB. gather materials to scatter light.C. avoid the absorption of lightD. grow bigger to stop light.27. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals________.A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after deathC. produce more tissues for their survivalD. take effective action to reduce light spreadingCThere are an extremely large number of ants worldwide. Each individual (个体的) ant hardly weigh anything, but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind. They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles. For animals their size, ants have been astonishingly successful, largely due to their wonderful social behavior.In colonies (群体) that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions, they organize their lives with a clear division of labor. Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization. Where we use sound and sight to communicate, ants depend primarily on pheromone (外激素), chemicals sent out by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of their colony. When an ant finds food, it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is. When an individual ant comes under attack or is dying, it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to prepare for a conflict as a defense unit.In fact, when it comes to the art of war, ants have no equal. They are completely fearless and will readily take on a creature much larger than themselves, attacking in large groups and overcoming their target. Such is their devotion to the common good of the colony that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner, these little creatures have survived on Earth, for more than 140 million years, far longer than dinosaurs. Because they think as one, they have a collective (集体的) intelligence greater than you would expect from its individual parts.28. We can learn from the passage that ants are ____________.A. not willing to share foodB. not found around the polesC. more successful than all other animalsD. too many to achieve any level of organization29. Ants can use pheromones for______.A. escapeB. communicationC. warning enemiesD. arranging labor30. What does the underlined expression "take on" in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Accept.B. Employ.C. Play with.D. Fight against.31. Which of the following contributes most to the survival of ants?A. Their behavior.B. Their size.C. Their number.D. Their weight.DWhen the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life, she did what comes naturally. The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and,being a city animal, lost both her sheep and her sense of direction. Then she ran along the edge of cliff (悬崖) and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and celled the coastguard of Cornwall, who turned up in seconds . Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr. Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken . Then, one day, the phone rang and Steve Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall, asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff. She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge. “The dog was very thin and hungry,” Steve Tregear said , “It was a very dog. She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water,” he added.It was ,as Mr. Holden admitted, “a minor miracle(奇迹)”.32. The dog Jody fell down the cliff when she wasA. rescuing her ownerB. caught in a hurricaneC. blocked by a rockD. running after a sheep33.Who spotted Judy after the accidentA. A birdwatcherB. A student from LeedsC. Six volunteersD. The coastguard of Cornwall34. What can we infer from the textA. People like to travel with their pets.B. Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.C. Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.D. Holden cared little where Judy was buried.35. Which of the following can be the best title for the textA. Miracle of the Coastguard.B. Surviving a Hurricane.C. Dangers in the WildD. Coming Back from the Dead.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。
