It is thought that between the years1550 and 1950 an average of one kind of living thing died out each year.By 1985 this had risen to one per day. Between 1980 and 2000 we may loseanother half a million different kinds of living things.There are many reasons for animals dying out, but the most importantone is the part that humans have played. First, many animals have beenkilled for food. Second, many of the places where these animals used tolive have been destroyed. Dry lands have been watered. Wet lands havebeen turned into fields. Forests have been cleared. Much land has eitherbeen changed to farmland or used for building. Polluted rivers and lakeshave also been a cause of death.One example of an animal in danger is the tiger. There are threetypes of tiger living in China: the South China, the Northeastern, andthe Bengal. In all there are probably no more than a total of 400 tigersleft in China. Many of the forests where they lived were destroyed. Also,tigers were hunted and killed until in many areas the entire populationhad disappeared.In 1900 there were about 100,000 tigers in Asia. In 1970 when theshooting of tigers was stopped there were just 5,000 left. In India,however, the population of tigers has increased, from 2,000 in 1972 toabout 5,000 in 1989. Perhaps the same progress can be made in China.1. A The most dangerous enemy of animals are _________.A. huntersB. trapsC. humansD. polluted lakes2. A The number of tigers in India growing is because __________.A. there are some special kinds of tigers in IndiaB. the tigers there are well-protectedC. the shooting of tigers are forbiddenD.

A By 1985 the average number of the living things that die out is _________.A. one kind each yearB. one kind a dayC. one kind a weekD. one kind a month5. B What do we do to protect plants and animals?A. All the people should realize that to protect plants and animals is to protect ourselves.B. We should slow down the speed of the growth of populationC. We should make laws to stop factories and cars from sending out poisonous gases.D. All of aboveIII. 阅读理解：（每题5分，共15分）Everything, alive or not alive, is always on the move. Even the ground under our feet is moving.Sometimes the movement is very slow. A glacier is a river of ice. But a river moves very quickly and a glacier does not. Look at the list below. It gives facts about the speed some of the world’s seas and rivers move at.■ Antarctic Circumpolar Current 1.4kph■ Mississippi River, USA 3.2kph■ Amazon River, South America 2.4 - 4.8kph■ Gulf Stream, Atlantic Ocean 7.4 -9.3kph■ Severn River, England 19.8kph■ Ganges River, India 27kph■ Lava Fall, Colorado River, USA 48kphSometimes the bottom of the sea moves. This makes very large, very fast waves. We call these waves “tsunamis”. A tsunami can move across the sea as fast as 784 kilometers per hour.The pigeon (鸽子) is much slower than the spin-tailed swift (刺尾鸟，即雨燕). This swift is the fastest animal in the world. Its highest speed is 170kph. This is 74kph faster than the pigeon. The honeybee can fly at 18kph, and the monarch butterfly can fly 14kph faster than that.The cheetah (印度豹) is the fastest animal on land. Humans can run at 43kph, but the cheetah can run at 112kph over a short distance. The ostrich (鸵鸟) can run 4kph faster than a human, and the rabbit is even faster. It can run 24kph fastest than the ostrich.Fish can move very quickly. The sailfish (旗鱼) is the fastest. It can swim twice as fast as the ostrich can run. The dolphin (海豚) canswim at 59kph and the trout (鲑鱼) at 24kph. These fish are much faster than humans. A human’s top speed in the water is only 8.3kph.6.

Unit 1 The world of our senses Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit& Reading-Pre-readingGiven that we just said goodbye to another year, we are all pretty familiar with the hindsight (后见之明)．But have you heard of blindsight?The phenomenon is the ability to see without having the visual brain hardware to actually see.It's been proven that monkeys have blindsight for navigating (移动) through space, but never in a human until now.A recent paper in CurrentBiology describes a patient who lost his ability to see after suffering strokes that wiped out his visual cortex (大脑皮层), the brain area that processes visual input.His eyes and optic nerves remained intact, and the researchers confirmed that some information was being gathered via his still­functioning eyes.So they gave him what many would think was the impossible test for the blind person.He had to navigate a hallway, around chairs and boxes, without his cane (手杖)．He passed the test perfectly.What this implies is that visual information can reach the brain by routes other than the visual cortex.And this means we don't have to be conscious of the experience of seeing to capture and respond to visual stimuli.“All the time,we are using the hidden resources of our brains and doing things we think we are unable to do，” said Beatrice de Gelder, one of the authors of theresearch.Maybe we should give a new meaning to the old saying “I see”．Section_ⅠWelcome to the unit & Reading —Pre­reading[原文呈现][读文清障]Fog①by Bill LoweFog warningWhen Polly left home that morning②， the city was already covered in a grey mist③.At lunch, the radio forecast④that the mist would become a thick fog in the afternoon⑤.At four o'clock, Polly left work and stepped⑥out into the fog.She wondered⑦if the buses would still be running⑧.No buses to King StreetOnce out in the street⑨， she walked quickly towards her usual bus stop.‘How far are you going？’ the bus conductor⑩ asked her ⑪before he took her fare⑫.‘King Street，’ said Polly.‘Sorry, Miss，’ replied the man, ‘the truth is that it is too foggy⑬ for the bus to⑭ run that⑮far⑯.Take the Underground to Green Park.The weather might be better there and you might be able to get①fog/fɒɡ/n.雾②when引导时间状语从句。

）AOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can yo u be a good friend at school?Listen — Listen when they are talking. Don't say anything unl ess they ask you a question. Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk t o about their feelings.Help them — If your friend is ever in need of something, be th ere to help them. You should try to put them first, but make su re you don't do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra(额外的)pencil or pen with you to classes in case(以防)they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them — Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and e ncouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous US. actor, once said, “I ofte n make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you ca n't stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve(值得)to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you do n't want to stay with your friends when they're in hard times, t hen you don't deserve to be with them when they're having a good time!______ — Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, g o for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take ti me to know each other even better by doing something you b oth enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a g ood time. And you'll remember these things when you're all ol d!1. What should you do when your friend is talking to you abou t his or her feelings?A. Doing nothing but your own thingsB. Sharing your feelings and opinionC. Calming him or her downD. Just listening unless asked2. When our friends need our help, we should ______.A. try to do everything for themB. put them before ourselvesC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults3. What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe's words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend is easier lost than found.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. A man is known by his friends.4. Which of the following can be put in the blank of the last pa ragraph?A. Make plans.B. Enjoy yourself.C. Understand your friends.D. Play with your friends.BWhat is language for? Some people seem to think it’s for prac tising grammar rules and learning lists of words －the longer the lists, the better. That’s wrong. Language is for t he exchange (交流) of ideas and information. It’s meaningless knowing all abo ut a language if you can’t use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can’t speak co rrectly or fluently. They are afraid of making mistakes. One sh ouldn’t be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, to o. Bernard Shaw once wrote, “Foreigners often speak English too correctly.” But the mistakes that native speakers make ar e different from those that Chinese students make. They’re E nglish mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong, becomes right. People not only make history, they ma ke language. But a people can only make its own language. It can’t make another people’s language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn’t overdo (做过头) it. They should put communication(交际)first.5. Language is used to________.A. record some informationB. practise grammar rulesC. talk with foreigners onlyD. express oneself6. Generally, when an American or an Englishman speaks En glish, he or she________.A. never makes mistakesB. often makes mistakesC. can’t avoid making mistakesD. always makes mistakes7. The sentence “Foreigners often speak English too correctly .” means that________.A. foreigners always learn standard EnglishB. foreigners speak English more carefullyC. foreigners speak English according to the grammar rulesD. foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English8. When we speak a foreign language, we should________.A. speak in native wayB. speak by the rulesC. speak to native speakersD. not be afraid of making mistakesCThere are many differences between British English and Ame rican English. I used to teach a course about the differences b etween the two. We speak English on both sides of the Atlanti c Ocean but we have many differences in our common langua ge. We have examples of the same words having very different meanings, differing spellings of the same words as well as completely different words for the same things. Here are som e examples.A cookie in the US is called a biscuit in the UK. A biscuit in th e US is a small cake in the UK. Crisps in the UK, are known a s chips, but we British people eat a plate of chips that you call fries in the US. In the UK, a pie can be made from either mea t or fruit, while in the US pies are normally made from fruit; pot pies are made from meat. Most things are measured in gram s and kilograms in the US, not pounds and ounces.One very obvious(明显的)difference is the side of the road we each choose to drive o n. Petrol in the UK is gas in the US. The place where we fill u p our cars, in the UK, is a garage; while in the US, it’s a gas st ation. The term garage is also used as a place to store your c ar next to or close by your house. In the UK we call a lorry wh at is known as a truck in the US.An elevator in the US is called a lift here, and the first floor in t he US, is called the ground floor here, so many visitors get off on the wrong floor in British hotels.I could continue with this. There are countless examples of dif ferences within our one shared language. With so many differ ences, no wonder it’s hard to understand each other well.9. The passage is mainly about the differences between British English and American English in________.A. vocabularyB. grammarC. soundD. spelling10. We can infer (推断)that the author may be________.A. a driver from the USB. a teacher from the UKC. a cook from the USD. a gas station worker from the UK11. In the author’s opinion, ________.A. language differences don’t affect understandingB. the same words in the two different types of English may h ave different spellingsC. there will be fewer differences between American and Briti sh English in the futureD. it is impossible that some Americans get off on the wrong fl oor in British hotels12. What can we learn from the passage?A. “Elevator” is commonly used in the UK.B. Pies mean the same thing in the UK and the US.C. In the UK, things are measured in pounds and ounces.D. British and American people drive on the same side of the road.DA friend is better than fortune.A friend may be worse than poison in some cases.The two sentences above have opposite meanings and seem to be unreasonable, but they can be explained as follows: the first refers to all good friends who drive us towards good while the second refers to all bad ones who lead us into bad ways. My ideal friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below: He has no bad habits, such as smoking and dri nking. He lives a simple life. He studies hard so as not to wast e his golden time. At home he honours his parents and loves his brothers; at school he respects his teachers and shares th e feelings of his classmates. He treats those truly who are tru e to him. In a word, he has all the good characteristics that I d on't have. I can follow him as a model. With his help I can be f ree from all difficulties.Indeed, if I have such a person as my friend, I shall never fear difficulties and I shall never know the existence of the word “failure”.13. This passage is mainly about ______.A. how to make friendsB. when to make friendsC. where friendship lieD. what friends we should make14. According to the writer, an ideal friend should be the pers on who ______.A. has many brothersB. has no bad habitsC. is respected by the othersD. is different from the others15. If the writer has an ideal friend, he would ______.A. find it easy to succeedB. meet many difficultiesC. know what is failureD. fear difficulties第二部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空（共20小题，每小题1分，满分20分。

Unit 1 The written word Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit &Reading-Pre readingEnglish romantic poetry dates back to the Romantic Period roughly between 1785 and 1830. Writers from this period focused on wonder, amazement and appreciation of nature, animals, possessions and people. The poetry of this period is well­known for its high degree of creativity and imagination. Through the use of the senses, poets expressed their love for the universe. Poets such as Keats, Byron, Shelly and Wordsworth painted pictures with words through the use of imagery, metaphor (隐喻) and simile (明喻).Romantic poets describe poetry as the overflow of powerful feelings which expresses their minds. The interest of the romantic poets is not in the physical world or in the action of men, but in the feelings, thoughts, and experiences of the poets themselves.Under the influence of the American and French revolutions, there was an increasing belief that every human being is worth praising,and a growing sympathy for the suffering of common people. Romantic poetry shows strong feelings against unjust social and political situations. Romantic poetry also shows the passion that the writer possesses for the beauty of the world around. A passionate appreciation and admiration for beautiful land, especially undisturbed pieces of land, is emphasized in romantic poems.Romantic poems contain exotic (异国的) images and stories of kings, gods, goddesses, angels and spirits. The mystery and power of love is central to many romantic poems. Not every romantic poem paints an image of happiness and satisfaction with a lover or loving relationship; many romantic poets composed poems that emphasized heartache and sadness for lost love.The primary function of a romantic poem is to express one's imagination. Using all of the senses, poets create a beautiful image that allows readers to not only see and feel what the poet is describing, but also actually smell, hear and taste the subjects discussed in a poem. Poets today continue to look to the poets of the Romantic Period for inspiration and motivation.Section_ⅠWelcome to the unit & Reading —Pre­reading[原文呈现]Appreciating literatureWhat is classic literature? Classics are the antiques①of the literary②world. They are novels, plays and poems that were written a long time ago③and were so well written that people still read them nowadays. They are examples of great writing and wisdom, and even those written centuries ago④ can still be found in bookshops and libraries today.Because a lot of classics⑤were written so long ago, their language characteristics⑥ are quite different from those of modern works. This makes them difficult for some people to read, so they are often left to gather dust on shelves. Many people do not read them, because they think classics are old and boring and have nothing to do with⑦ life today.However, if this is true, why do we still find these classics in bookshops and libraries? They have not disappeared and still have a place in⑧ the world. Why else would many films adapted from them⑨ be successful? In 1995, an award­winning⑩ film based on Jane Austen's novel Emma⑪ came out⑫. Three years later, in 1998, a modern adaptation⑬ of Charles Dickens's novel GreatExpectations appeared in cinemas. Nobody would bother to⑭ make these classic novels into films if they had nothing to do with contemporary⑮ life.[读文清障]①antique/æn'tiːk/n.古董，文物②literary adj.文学的literature n．文学，文学作品③that were written a long time ago是that引导的定语从句，修饰先行词novels, plays and poems。
