B If you love adventure and excitement, then Hunter's best-selling Warriors series is for you. The fantasy books follow four cat clans (部落）as they try to survive in the wilderness. In the newest book Thunder Clan warrior ，Ash fur has been mysteriously murdered. This sets three warrior cats named Holly leaf, Lion blaze and Jay feather on a journey to find the killer. The three friends must deal with other problems, too. Jay feather is searching for his parents, but he must struggle against many lies to find them. Holly leaf encounters her own barriers when her clan refuses to follow the warrior rule. And Lion blaze discovers some unbelievable secrets. Besides, the cats face many dangers and the chance that another warrior will disappear forever. “Hunter” is really a pen name for Victoria Holmes and two other authors, Kate Cary and Cherith Baldry. They chose Hunter to cover the three of them because of Red Wall ，a very successful bookwritten by Brian Jacques. It is a similar animal fantasy about rats and mice. Because Warriors was going to fit into that bracket (级另!j)，they wanted their books to go into the bookshelves next to his. So they needed a name alphabetically that would be close to Jacques. Hunter fits perfectlyi “ My favorite character is Jay feather. You never know if he is on the side of the angels or not. He's got a quite dark side about him. In terms of the cat that I would like to be my best friend, that would be Cinder pelt. She is so cool. She has a great sense of humor and she is a good medicine cat. Even if she isn't a warrior, she tries to make the best of her destiny (命运). I really admire that in her,” said Victoria Holmes, one of the authors, 35.The three warrior cats go on a journey mainly to _____.A. survive in the wildernessB. protect another warrior from disappearingC. find the killer that murdered Ash furD. look for some adventure and excitement 36.From the second paragraph ，we can learn that _____.

A.the book is about the hunting of cats B.they all admired the fantasy author Brian Jacques C.the books should be placed into the bookshelves marked as “H” D.they wanted their books to be best-sellers just like Jacques' Red Wall 38.Which of the following is NOT true about Cinder pelt according to Victoria Holmes?A. She has a sense of humor.B. She is on the side of the angels.C. She attempts to make the best of her destiny.D. She is a good medicine cat. C My Grandmother was from a town in Michigan. She was always using her hands for something exciting ... she would make little sandwiches and we'd have tea parties, she'd plant flowers and carefully tend them. She'd knit toy sweaters for her grandchildren as well as making beautiful quilts for each one. I remember the small thimble (顶针）she would use while doing her needle work. Placing her thimble on her finger she'd remark，“ I wouldn't want to sew without one. ” A few years ago when Grandma left this earth, I bid farewell to a loving grandmother. How quicklyour lives can change. We had just had tea together a couple of months earlier, on her 91st birthday. I missed her very much，but I noticed it mostly on a birthday, as there was no card from Grandma. She'd never forgotten my birthday ！ On one particular birthday, when I was feeling a little low and a lot older, something happened to make me feel like she was sharing that special day with me. I was arranging some colorful pillows that she had made, and suddenly I felt something inside one pillow, it was small and hard. I moved the object to a seam (接缝）that I carefully opened, and to my delight out came a tiny silver thimble! How happy I was to find something that had been a part of her. Not realizing it had fallen off her finger, I pictured her sewing it in that little pillow that I just “happened，，to place on my bedspread that day, I carefully laid the thimble alongside the others I've collected over the years, where I could continue to see the gift. What a precious memory of a very special lady who somehow，I knew, was laughing in delight at sewing her thimble inside my pillow. I heated the tea kettle and made some tea，using my best china，as Grandma always did，and enjoyed my tea and Grandma's thimble. What a wonderful birthday that was! 39.The underlined word “one” refers to _____.A. a sweaterB. a quiltC. a fingerD. a thimble 40.How did the writer feel when she found the thimble?A. Lucky.B. Cheerful.C. Sad.D. Puzzled. 41.The writer wrote the passage to. _____A. celebrate the writer's birthdayB. remind the writer of her sweet childhoodC. show her love for GrandmotherD. call on people to care for the old 42.What is the best title for the passage?A. Grandma's ThimbleB. Colorful PillowsC. My ChildhoodD. Grandma's 91st Birthday D Nowadays more and more people are trapped in too busy work to relax themselves. We have no time to tell a bed-time story to our children, or enjoy a nice dinner with our family, or take a break to think about how we live the precious life, or even meet friends. All we notice is that the distinctions that used to guide and steady us— between Sunday and Monday, public and private, here and there—are gone. We have more ways to communicate, but less and less to say. Partly because we're so busy communicating. Maybe that's why more and more people I know，even if they have no religious commitment, seem to be turning to yoga, or meditation, or tai chi. Some friends of mine try to go on long walks every Sunday, or to "forget” their cellphones at home. A series of tests in recent years has shown that after spending time in quiet rural settings, subjects “ exhibit greater attentiveness，stronger memory and generally improved cognition. Their brains become both calmer and sharper, ” More than that, sympathy, as well as deep thought, depends on neural processes that are “inherently slow, ” the very ones our high-speed lives have little time for. In my own case, I turn to unusual and often extreme measures to try to keep my good sense and ensure that I have time to do nothing at all. I've not yet used a cellphone and I've never tweeted or entered Facebook. I try not to go online till my day's writing is finished, and I moved from Manhattan to rural Japan. None of this is a matter of principle or asceticism (苦行主义)：it's just pure selfishness. Nothing makes me feel better, calmer, clearer and happier than being in one place, absoAed in a book, a conversation, a piece of music. It's actually something deeper than mere happiness： it's joy, which the monk David Steindl-Rast describes as “that kind of happiness that doesn't depend on what happens. ”That is the highest of the highest we have been longing for~The Joy of Quiet. 43.The writer sometimes doesn't do anything because _____.A. he is out of workB. whatever he does make no senseC. he is worried about his writingD. he can enjoy himself in his leisure time 44.When the writer uses the word “forget”，his real meaning is _____ . A.somebody really forgets his cellphone at home B.somebody leaves his cellphone at home on purpose C.somebody hates modern techniques such as the cellphone D.somebody thinks cellphone is not a suitable means of communication 45.The underlined word “distinctions’ ，means_____. A- outcomeB. similarityC. differenceD. complication 46.What is the main idea of the article? A.It is important to spend time in quiet circumstances. B.We can do some sports such as yoga to relax. C.Principle or asceticism is important in one's life. D.The more we communicate, the more we will be closer. E 3D films are fun一of course they are, even the bad ones. But these movies are still in their infancy. The question is whether 3D filmmakers can do better. I have no doubt they will, but I believe they will achieve cosmetic changes around the edges rather than revolutionary breakthroughs. 3D filmmakers don't realize, or at least have not sufficiently taken to heart, that the medium they're working in is binocular (同时用双目的)film, not merely 3D film. And once one realizes this, it is possible to see that whole fields of potential film experience have been left entirely untapped. When we say 3D movies, we are referring to stereopisis (立体视觉）. But binocular vision refers to the use of two eyes for vision, whereas stereopsis is just one of the functions binocular vision gives us. Why do we have such a large binocular vision field in the first place? I have argued in my book，The Vision Revolution，that we have forward-facing eyes in order to see well in cluttered forest habitats. Our large binocular field evolved for seeing past layers of clutter( 一堆杂乱的东西),and integrating two different views of a scene into a single combined view. I call this function of binocular vision “X-ray vision” because it allows us to see the clutter as semi-transparent, something through which to see the scene beyond. If 3D filmmakers are going to throw binocular images at our big binocular field, then they should be sending us views of the kind that field evolved to process ： views within cluttered environments,whether leafy forests or spider-web-filled rooms. In this light, 3D film ought to put the viewer into the bodies and eyes of characters in the story，placing him or her into the interactions between the characters and their surroundings. This would allow viewers to truly see out of the eyes of others, to experience other worlds, and yet not have the views of the scenes beyond blocked out, just as in real life. A simple first step forward is to begin calling them binocular movies ，not 3D movies. 47. The underlined word "cosmetic" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to “.A. seemingB. welcomeC. unnecessaryA, thorough 48.According to the author, why have 3D filmmakers not made a breakthrough? A.They are short of resources. B.They are satisfied with what they have achieved. C.They don't know how 3D really works. D.They don't know what 3D technology can really achieve. 49.What would binocular movies be able to do? A.Take advantage of X-rays. B.Make use of cluttered images. C.Place viewers within real cluttered environments during movies. D.See the surrounding world through the eyes of other viewers. 50 . What is the main idea of the text? A The evolution of binocular vision. B The problems 3D filmmakers face.C How binocular vision can be exploited in 3D films. DThe differences between binocular films and 3D films. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分） 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，并将答案填写在本题下 面的横线上。
