As the result of a medical accident she was sightless, suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, 16 and self-pity. All she had to 17 on was her husband Mark.Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and he became 18 to use every means possible to helphis wife.19 , Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too 20 to get around the city by herself. Mark volunteered to 21 on the bus with Susan each morning and evening until she got used to it.For two weeks, Mark, in full military uniform, 22 Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her 23 , to determine where she was and how to adapt to her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and 24 her a seat.Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. 25 morning arrived. Before she left, she embraced her husband tightly. Her eyes filled with tears of 26 for his loyalty, his patience, and his love. She said good-bye and, for the first time, they went their 27 ways. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went 28 , and a wild gaiety took hold of Susan. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself!On Friday 29 , Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was exiting the bus, the driver said, “Miss, I sure 30 you.” Curious, Susan asked the driver why.“You know, every morning for the past week, a fine looking gentleman in a military uniform has been 31 across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he 32 you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a salute and walks away. You are one 33 lady,” the bus driver said.Tears of happiness poured down Susan’s 34 . She was so lucky for he had given her a gift more powerful than 35 , a gift she didn’t need to see to believe—the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.16.

Robin and l took note.On Christmas Eve, we placed Santa's cookies and milk by the fire, placed a few carrots on the roof for the reindeer, and put Jay to sleep in our bed at the back of the house, where the sound of Santa's boots wouldn't wake him. That's when I retired to the NASA－Level workshop I had set up in the spare bedroom and spent the whole night putting together that stereo.At one point, I took a break to move Jay from our bed to his—he was afraid that Santa might think he wasn't home and would forget to leave presents. He moved a bit while I carried him but never opened his eyes. At long last, I finished the stereo and positioned it by the tree, worried that it wouldn't play but too scared to turn it on and accidentally blast our son out of bed. Robin and I fell asleep early that Christmas morning, filled with satisfaction. At 7 a．m., Jay woke us up and led us to the Christmas tree. He fell in love with the sound system—we were deaf for a week.A few days passed, and Jay asked me a surprisin g question. “Dad, how did I get from your bed to mine？” Ever the clever one, I said, “Santa moved you! Isn't that fun？！” He said nothing,walking into the hall and looking closely at the floor. He came back, arms folded. “Dad, we need to talk, but Mom can't hear. Santa either wears the same cologne(科隆香水) as you do, or you are Santa Claus! Look at the wheel marks on the carpet. The stereo was rolled out of that bedroom and down the hallway.”My first thought was: Are you kidding me? The kid was only six, and he discovered detailed evidence. He advised we not tell his mother because he was certain she didn't know. “It will be our little secret，” I told him, much to his delight. “We men have to stick together.”After that, the real fun began. Jay got to be Santa when we donated presents to a needy family—he just loved it. Then, little brother Jordan was born, and Jay continued to play along. We actually got the most joy from Santa when Jay kept the magic alive with us. Christmas is still a special time around our household. Robin and I now have a few grandchildren to shop for. The only rule when it comes to gifts is that I don't have to build it. The last time I tried to fix something—my ’57 Chevy—I ended up taking it to a garage, where it was stolen! I must take this time to remind Santa that I'd love to have that car back unless, of course, he's using it to deliver his store of presents.36. What can we infer according to the passage?A. Jay had quite a different taste in music with his dad.B. Jay kept his eyes shut when carried to his own room.C. Jay's mother didn't know anything about the sound system.D. Jay was only six when he discovered detailed evidence.37. According to paragraph 3, the writer says that they were deaf for a week because ________．A. Jay fell in love with the sound systemB. the sound system played perfectlyC. the noise of the sound system was too loudD. the writer had some hearing problems38. Where did the writer get the stereo for Jay according to the passage?A. He bought it from NASA－level workshop.B. He made it in his NASA－level workshop.C. He stored it in the NASA－level workshop.D. He fixed it in his NASA－level workshop.39. Where is the writer's ’57 Chevy right now?A. Santa is having it to deliver his presents.B. The writer is still keeping it in the garage.C. No one knows exactly where it really is.D. It is being fixed in NASA－level workshop. IV.任务型阅读Made In The USA: An Export BoomIn his State of the Union address two years ago, President Obama argued that in order to recover from the economic recession, one of the few things the U．S. needed to do was to export more goods around the world. That night, the president unveiled a new goal: to double U．S. exports ov er the next five years. It would be an increase that the president said would “support two million jobs in America.”Most economists dismissed the promise at the time as something unrealistic, but two years later, the U．S. is on pace to meet that goal. American exports are up 34 percent since the president gave that speech, and the number continues to rise.Competitive In A Global MarketMarlin Steel, a metal working business in Baltimore, makes parts that ship all across the world.“We export to 36 countrie s，” owner Drew Greenblatt tells All Things Considered Host Guy Raz.“We're working around the clock, and we're growing.”It's not just advanced manufacturing exports on the rise, but pork, cattle and all kinds of agricultural exports are up as well. Even American craft beer has found an export market.Flying Dog CEO Jim Caruso says that increasingly, people all over the world are trying the beer from the Maryland-based brewery. Caruso says，“Even in those top beer-producing countries, a competitive American p roduct is finding a market.”Services Are Exports, TooAnother place exports are coming from is New York City—in particular, the 30th floor of a Manhattan skyscraper on 5th Avenue and 52nd Street. That's where the consulting firm Kurt Solomon lies. It doesn't actually produce a product for export; it provides management advice and strategy.“Four out of every five Americans is now employed in the service industry，” the nation's top trade official, Ron Kirk says, “Services are a significant part of our exports, and make up about a quarter of our exported goods.” These services can include ever ything from legal consulting, finance, information technology and even engineering.And There Are Other FactorsSo why has there been an increase of more than 30 percent for exports in almost everything? Part of the increase, at least for the manufacturing side, is due to better technology, says Tyler Cowen, an economist. “A lot of it is being driven by smart machines，” he tells Raz，“The U．S. has high wage rates, which is a disadvantage, but if machines are doing a lot of the work, that doesn'tmatter.”Chi na factors a lot in America's export economy, too. “Wages in China have been going up as the country becomes more productive. Thus China is losing the cheap labor advantage it has held for some time.” Cowen says.Will Jobs Grow, too?“Companies have become more productive by dismissing workers and lowering costs.” Cowen says.“So I don't view exporting as a way of creating a very large number of jobs, but it will create more profits.”So not every business or worker is necessarily benefiting from the export boom in the U．S., and Cowen says that could ultimately lead to a polarization(两极) of economic outcomes.单选BDACA BCCBA ABBAC完型BADAC DDCCB CAABC DCBBD阅读ACBC71. recovery 72. employment 73. by 74. benefit 75.

No matter what you do, so long as you are determined to achieve, goals are necessary.Everybody has his own goals with no exception of me. Being a man useful to society is my long-term goal.

安宜高级中学2015届高三D部英语限时训练三十四班级：___________姓名：___________学号：___________I.完形填空We must think anew --- and act anew. ——Abraham Lincoln When Abraham Lincoln wrote these words, he was facing the greatest crisis: the Civil War. He knew that 1 measures were not enough. “The dogmas (教条) of the 2 past,” he wrote, “are inadequate to the stormy present. We must think anew, and act anew.”New thought, new action --- how simple it sounds and how 3 it is! Most of us tend to be 4 by old habits of thought. When crisis threatens, it is all too easy to react as we did before.But great 5 awaits men and women who can change the pattern of their thinking to meet new challenges. I have 6 of this in my own experience. When I first left college, I had no 7 of becoming a psychiatrist(精神病医生). I taught drama in university. But two years later, 8 my life, I decided that, much 9 I enjoyed teaching, what I really wanted to be was a doctor.The 10 to “act anew” was not easy. I knew I could hardly hope to become a(n) 11 psychiatrist before I was forty. My friends advised strongly against such an extreme step. I took it 12 . I have never regretted it.Today, many of the people who come to me for help are suffering from a kind of 13 caused by blindly sticking to old patterns of thinking and acting. They ca n’t adapt to 14 conditions. They find it so difficult to 15 that sometimes they break.Quite often, in my 16 to help such people, I quote these words of Lincoln. When problems annoy us, I tell them --- when there is 16 no solution --- we must not act rigidly. We must not 18 our difficulties from old, habitual points of view. We must think anew, and with it will come the 19 and the confidence to act anew.A great American told us this. We should remember his words and try to live 20 them.1.

Health．B. Technology．C. Entertainment．D. Business．22．The case of Helge and Kari Farsund in the first paragraph serves to .A. introduce the main topicB. expose a social problemC. show sympathy to the elderlyD. arouse medical workers' interest 23．Which of the following functions can all be performed by the system?①To warn people of possible dangers．②To help check in with patients．③To offer people some medicine．④To cure people of Alzheimer's．⑤To remind people of daily tasks．⑥To play movies like an iPad．A．②③⑤B．①④⑥C．③④⑤D．①②⑤24．According to the last paragraph, Oystein Johnsen will approve that ．A．the system should reduce its cost B．smart cities should be human-basedC．mass production is still impossible D．individuals are responsible for futureB"I left Tangier, my birthplace, the 13th of June 1325 with the intention of making the pilgrimage （朝圣）to Mecca．．．to leave all my friends both female and male, to abandon my home as birds abandon their nests．" So begins an old manuscript（手稿）in a library in Pari s－the travel journal of Ibn Battuta．Almost two centuries before Columbus, Ibn Battuta set off for Mecca, returning home three decades later as one of history's great travelers．Driven by curiosity, he journeyed to remote comers of the Islamic world, traveling through 44 modern countries, three times as far as Marco Polo．Little celebrated in the West, his name is well known among Arabs．In his hometown of Tangier, a square, a hotel, a cafe, a ferry boat, and even a hamburger are named after him．Ibn Battuta stayed in Mecca as a student for several years, but the urge to travel soon took over．In one adventure, he traveled to India seeking profitable employment with the sultan of Delhi．On the way, he described his group being attacked in the open country by 80 men on foot, and two horsemen．"We fought…killing one of their horsemen and about twelve of the foot soldiers…I was hit by an arrow and my horse by another, but God in his grace preserved me…"．In Delhi, the sultan gave him the position of judge, based on his prior study at Mecca．But the sultan had an unpredictable character, and Ibn Battuta looked for an opportunity to leave．When the sultan offered to finance a trip to China, he agreed．IbnBattuta set off in three ships, but misfortune struck while he was still on the shore．A sudden storm grounded and broke up two ships, scattering treasure and drowning many people and horses．As he watched, the third ship with all his belongings and slaves （one carrying his child）, was carried out to sea and never heard from again．After a lifetime of incredible adventures, Ibn Battuta was finally ordered by the sultan of Morocco to return home to share his wisdom with the world．Fortunately, he agreed and wrote a book that has been translated into numerous languages, allowing people everywhere to read about his unparalleled journeys．25．What is the main topic of the article?A．Visitors to Mecca．B．A great travel joumal．C．Ibn Barttuta and the sultan．D．Ibn Battuta and adventures．26．Which word below might share similar meaning with the underlined word "prior' ?A．formal B．flexible C．former D．final27．What is Ibn Battuta's main character reflected in this article?A．optimistic B．sympathetic C．submitted D．committed 28．It can be inferred from the text that ．A．Ibn wasn't fond of the sultan of Delhi B．Ibn never liked ancient ChinaC．Ibn was a good friend of Marco Polo D．Ibn dedicated the book to his child 29．What brought Ibn Battuta finally back to his motherland?A．His love for the country．B．His faith in God．C．His plan to write a book． D．His sultan's order．III.任务型阅读What Colleges Will Be Like in 2023Imagine a university without textbooks and classes without calendars, but still costs a lot of money.Ten years from now college might not look too different from the outside, but the learning experience students receive will probably be different from the one they get today.Here are four areas where you can expect to see major changes and one area where you probably won't:The ClassroomIn the near future, professors will run their courses over digital platforms where data on each student's progress can be collected. These platforms were initially developed for massive open online courses, or MOOCs. However, universities are now folding these platforms back into their traditional classes because they make it easier to share content, host discussions and keep track of student work. A professor might still "teach" a class, but most of the interaction will happen online. If professors and students do meet in a physical classroom, it will be to review material, work through problems or drill down on discussion topics.The CalendarAs more classes move partially or entirely online, the requirements of having a uniform start and end date diminish（缩小）．Having all the class material online also means some students could sail through a semester's worth of classes in a few weeks and then start againwith new courses. Some might finish a bachelor's degree in two years. Those who stick around for four years might have three majors.The InstitutionMore universities are making their courses available through online platforms such as Coursera and edX, and great lectures can be found on YouTube. Students are supplementing（补充）their own school's classes with online lectures from rock-star professors at other institutions.More and more, this type of learning will become part of college life. "Students will be able to acquire knowledge globally, across different campuses," says Ron Kraemer, chief information and digital officer at the University of Notre Dame.Schools, meanwhile, will take advantage of this setup to conserve their resources. They might develop courses of their own only when they think they can provide a big advantage over othe r schools’offerings. Otherwise, they might simply adopt a world-beating course that was developed elsewhere, and then put their own stamp on it by designing assignments, discussions and student-faculty interactions. Already, for example, students at several California State University campuses such as San Jose and Sacramento are taking engineering classes that were developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.The TextbookThese 10-pound hardcover volumes used to have Psychology 101 or the "Rocks for Jocks" geology class. But this giant bundle, and the profitable publishing industry that produced it, will quickly unravel（瓦解）as professors pick and choose the sections they like best and assemble their own course packs.The books themselves will stop to be physical volumes and instead will be sources of interactive digital content that include text, videos and simulations（模拟）．In some cases, the material that used to be in a textbook will simply be integrated into the online course platfonn, where students can watch a lecture，read an essay and do a homework assignment.限时34完形36-40 BABDA 41-45 CDBAD 46-50 CBACC 51-55 DABDB阅读BADB DCDAD任务1.differ 2. interact/communicate 3. easier 4.requirements 5.bachelor’s 6.available/accessible 7.wherever e 9.favourite 10.included。

If I could, I would especially thank him for all the pain and 25 that has led the best of the best fighters to me.

There's always someone who's a bit better. The only solution is to reach inside and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more accurate measure for comparison than who you were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your best.Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. Either you see yourself as better than someone and you get lazy, or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for nothing. It is a fool's game. None of us are inherently above or below the person next to us. We are who we are. Not one of us is exactly alike. The only direct and honest comparison is within yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.My opinion is that you are only allowed to compare yourself to someone else if their life situation is the same as your own. Good luck finding that match. And one thing is for sure. Nomatter how hard you work and how dedicated you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. And if there's not, you can bet someone is coming up fast behind you. So how can you always win in life? Become your best competitor.The following are the reasons why you are your own best competitor.1). You will always be motivated.Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to push you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. Who cares if the guy next to you did 15? It doesn't make a bit of difference. You are a more fit person today than you were yesterday. Your own progress is all you need.2). You will continuously be your personal best.If you commit to a slightly higher standard of yourself every day, you will always be at the top of your game. And that game will only get better. But if for some reason you fall off your mark, you will always have the past image of your best performance to show you what you're capable of. Once you've done it, you know what's possible and then it's just a matter of doing it again.36. Through the passage the writer advises the readers to ________.A. avoid comparison with othersB. work much harderC. pay attention to others’ progressD. make full use of motivation37. If you want to be content with yourself, according to the author, you should ________.A. see yourself better than othersB. measure accuratelyC. compare with yourselfD. be honest with yourself38. Which of the following is certain to happen according to the author?A. Finding someone else who is in the same life situation as you are.B. Finding someone who runs faster and jumps higher than you.C. Finding someone who is hiding right behind you.D. Finding someone who almost always wins in their life.39. What can help you up to higher level in your life according to the passage?A. Comparing yourself with the guy next to you.B. Thinking about your own progress.C. Promising to play a game every day.D. Thinking of your most recent past limits.B ★★★Now came great news! It came from a neighboring state, where the family’s only surviving relative lived. It was Sally’s relative — a distant relative by the name of Tilbury Foster, seventy and single. Tilbury now wrote to Sally, saying he should shortly die, and should leave him thirty thousand dollars, cash; not for love, but because money had given him most of his troubles, and he wished to place it where there was good hope that it would continue its evil work. The bequest would be found in his will, and would be officially handed over provided that Sally should be able to prove to the executors (遗嘱执行人).As soon as Aleck had partially recovered from the strong emotions created by the letter, she sent someone to the relative’s home and subscri bed for the local paper.For the rest of the day Sally made confusion with his books, and Aleck could not keep her mind on her affairs, not even take up a flower-pot or book or a stick of wood without forgetting what she had intended to do with it. For both were dreaming.“Thirty thousand dollars!”All day long Aleck was absorbed in planning how to invest it, Sally in planning how to spend it.There was no romance-reading that night. The children took themselves away early, for their parents were silent, disturbed, and strangely unentertaining. Two pencils had been busy during that hour — note-making; in the way of plans. It was Sally who broke the stillness at last. He said, with excitement, “Ah, it’ll be grand, Aleck! Out of the first thousand we’ll have a horse and a buggy for summer, and a cutter and a skin lap-robe for winter.”Aleck responded with decision and calmness.“You can spend a part of it. But the whole of the capital must be put right to work.“Why, yes. Yes, of course. Have you got it invested yet?”“No, there’s no hurry about that; I must look around first, and think, er…, I’ve turned it over twice; once in oil and once in wheat.”“Why, Aleck, it’s splendid! What does it amount to?”“I think — well, to be on the safe side, about a hundred and eighty thousand clear, though it will probably be more.”“My! Isn’t it wonderful? Good heaven! Luck has come our way at last, Aleck!”Then they went up to bed, but they left the candle burning in the sitting room. They did not remember until they were undressed; then Sally was for letting it burn; he said they could afford it, if it was a thousand. But Aleck went down and put it out.A good job, too; for on her way back she hit on a scheme that would turn the hundred and eighty thousand into half a million before it had had time to get cold.40. Why would Tilbury like to give all his money to Sally?A. Because Sally was Tilbury’s only relative alive.B. Because Tilbury loved Sally and his family deeply.C. Because Tilbury wanted his money to continue its function.D. Because Sally and his wife are good at investing.41. The underlined word “bequest” in Paragraph 1 probably means ___________.A. a gift of personal propertyB. a proof of a person’s identityC. a method of getting moneyD. a reason for giving money42. What do we know about Sally and his wife after receiving the letter?A. They were in deep sorrow and stayed up all night.B. They cared little about the bequest and lived their life as usual.C. They paid a visit to Tilbury to confirm the truth of the letter.D. They had a big ambition to invest the money and make huge profits.43. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Thrilling NewsB. Sally’s Distant RelativeC. The $30,000 BequestD. A Smart Investment限时12 黄家锦单选：DBAAB CDCCB CADCD完形填空36-40 DBDAC 41-45 BCDAB 46-50 ADCBA 51-55 DBBDC阅读：ACBD CADC。

The character is a crocodile hunter, hence the nickname.In the first film, Crocodile Dundee, Mick is visited by a New York reporter, Sue Charlton, who travels to Australia to investigate a report she heard of a crocodile hunter, who had his leg bitten off by a crocodile in the outback. The hunter supposedly walked more than a hundred miles back to civilization and miraculously survived his injuries. However, by the time she meets him, the story turns out to be a somewhat exaggerated legend where th e “bitten-off leg” turns out to be just being some bad scarring on his leg; a “love bite” as Mick calls it. Still interested by the idea of “Crocodile Dundee”, Sue continues with the story. They travel together out to where the incident occurred, and follow his route through the bush to the nearest hospital. Despite his old-fashioned views, the pair eventually become close, especially after Mick saves Sue from a crocodile attack.Feeling there is still more to the story, Sue invites Mick back to New York with her, as his first trip to a city (or “first trip anywhere,” as Dundee says). The rest of the film depicts Dundee as a “fishout of water,” showing how, despite his expert knowledge of living outdoors, he knows little of city life. Mick meets Sue’s boyf riend, Richard, but they do not get along. By the end of the film, Mick is on his way home, lovesick, when Sue realizes she loves Mick, too, and not Richard. She runs to the subway station to stop Mick from leaving and, by passing on messages through the packed-to-the-gills crowd, she tells him she won’t marry Richard, and she loves him instead. With the help of the other people in the subway, Mick and Sue have a loving reunion as the film ends.25. Which of the following statements is true about Mick?A. He is a crocodile hunter living in Los Angeles.B. He is based on a real person in Australia.C. He got his nickname because of his job.D. He wrote a film series about himself.26. In the film Crocodile Dundee, Mick ______.A. pretends he was bitten by a crocodileB. urges Sue Charlton to write his life storyC. hasn’t been abroad before his trip to AmericaD. shows Sue Charlton around the town he lives in27. When in New York, Mick ______.A. makes friends with RichardB. makes full use of his bush skillsC. feels excited about living in a big cityD. doesn’t know how to fit into city life28. The film Crocodile Dundee can be best described as ______.A. a romantic storyB. an action movieC. a science fictionD. a frightening story三.任务型阅读For centuries people dreamed of going into space．This dream began to seem possible when high-flying rockets were built in the early 1900s.In 1903 a Russian teacher named Konstantin Tsiolkovsky figured out how to use rockets for space travel．His plan was the first one in rocket science to use correct scientific calculation．About 30 years later, a U.S．scientist named Robert Goddard built the first rockets that could reach high altitudes．During World War II, German scientists built large rockets that could travel very far and carry dangerous explosives．After the war, scientists from Germany went to the United States and the Soviet Union to help those countries build space rockets.These two countries were soon racing to get to space first．Each of these countries wanted to prove that it was stronger and more advanced than the other one．Both countries also had powerful bombs．People in the United States were worried when the Soviets were first to launch a space satellite, which was called Sputnik．The Soviets were also first to send a person into space．Yury Gagarin orbited the earth in the V ostok I spaceship in 1961.The US government set a goal for its space program to be the first country to put a person on the Moon．The U.S．space program built a series of Apollo spaceship．These vehicles were powered by huge Saturn 5 rockets．In 1969 Apollo II took three men to the moon successfully．Nell Armstrong became the first person to walk on the Moon.The Soviets may have lost the race to fly people to the Moon, but they built the first space station in 1971．The United States also built a space station．The space stations allowed people to live and work in space．Then the Soviet Union and the United States cooperated to hook two spaceships together in space．This action ended the "space race"．Today a much larger space station, built by several countries together, orbits Earth.Another new way to go to space is by space shuttle．A space shuttle, first made in the United States in 1981, looks like an airplane．Astronauts who fly spaceships have used shuttles to help put限时28完型BCACB BDCBA BCBBA CDACC阅读59-62 CCBB 67-68 CCDA1 true； 2. figured； 3.1933；4.high； 5.helped； 6.winner；7. successful；8. beat / defeated 9. cooperation / cooperating 10. travel。

There are some areas of special 1in selection interviewing. Our goal here is to point out these 2areas of questions and to suggest strategic ways to 3them as an interviewee.Courts have 4that it's none of the company's business how many children an applicant has; or whether he or she is married, 5or divorced. In this area, if you are asked an illegal question, you can give a general 6; saying elegantly: "I would prefer to stick to job-related questions:" Or you can be more 7: "Are children a requirement for this position?"8, many instances of illegal interview questions occur in' the course -of9getting-to-know-you small talk during an interview and aren't 10by the interviewer as an invasion（侵犯）of your privacy. But innocent or not, illegal interview questions can 11 a company in court when a job seeker 12discrimination in the interview process.To 13age discrimination in hiring, courts have disallowed these sorts of questions: "How old are you?"

Managers get in trouble here when they talk about the average age of their workforce in 14to -the candidate："Our typical employee is probably 8 to 10 years older than you. Do you expect problems managing people older than yourself?" You can imagine the later court 15. Manager: "But, Your Honor, I never asked her age!” Candidate: "My age seemed to be one of his key 16about my ability to manage.” And, of course, you can avoid all these disputes（争执）by simply answering your employer: "Age has 17been a consideration for me in my work life."In another area of sex, an employer cannot ask questions about the person's gender（性别）18 the job specifications strictly require either a male or a female. The burden of proof is on the 19 to demonstrate（论证）that only a man or a woman can do the job.

Of the 7,107 islands that make up the archipelago nation（群岛国家），Boracay is one that has some of the best beaches the country-or even Asia-has to offer.Boracay is a great choice for a beach holiday, especially if you're trying to escape the cold claws of winter. A lot is packed on the island, which is not much bigger than 10 square kilometers. It has many charms and attractions for the most active traveler, as well as the biggest beach bum（冲浪爱好者）．It also caters to a variety of budgets. With everything from low-key guesthouses to five-star resorts, local fare to gourmet meals（餐要大餐），travelers will be able to spend as -much or as little as they want. And like many destinations in Asia, bargaining will help you get better prices on accommodation, leisure activities, shopping and dining.The majority of accommodations can be found along the western side of the island, along White Sand Beach and Bulabog Beach. The southern part of the beach, called Station Three, caters more to backpacker crowds, and prices tend to increase the farther you go up the beach. Station Two, 5 to 10 minutes on foot from Station Three, is the center of the island's pulsing nightlife. Another 10 minutes up from Station Two is Station One, where you'll find the resort hotels and a more relaxed, comforting atmosphere.The island's lookout point is arguably the best place for panoramic（全景的）views of Boracay and its neighboring islands. Just a few moments of breathtaking scenery and fresh sea air will rejuvenate（使精神焕发）you and make you feel you never want to leave.There are organized trips to nearby islands, one of the most popular being Ariel's Point. The Boracay Beach Club resort, which owns the island, plans outings to Ariel's for a minimum of 14 people each trip．Visitors can have a day of cliff-jumping, snorkeling and barbecues.An alternative-and a sure way to see and do what you want-is to hire a boat. Ride around Boracay, stop at a restaurant frequented by locals, visit the neighboring islands, find a good snorkeling spot or fthd a beach where you can appreciate Boracay's unspoiled beauty. Countless boat operators offer their services along the shore. Rental is typically 500 pesos（＄12) an hour.Another must-do is a sailboat ride at sunset. White Sand and Bulabog Beaches are lined with sailboats, and there's nothing quite like watching the sun descend against the backdrop of a blue sea and sky. There's very little that will top this bonding moment with nature.To round up the day, head out for a tasty meal．Because of Boracay's countless international visitors, almost every major food type is available. There's New York-style pizzas, burgers galore, Mexican treats, Thai favorites, as well as Japanese udon noodles．There's plenty more to love and appreciate about Boracay. With its small, cozy atmosphere and welcoming people, it's one destination not to pass up for that romantic getaway, family trip or holiday with friends.21. If you want to find inexpensive accommodation, you should go______along White Sand Beach and Bulabog Beach.A. northward B．southward C. eastward D. westward22. What does the underlined word "top" in Paragraph 8 mean?A .Be better than. B．Be suitable for. C. Be away from. D. Be equal to.23. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Hotel expenses.B. Public transport.C. Outdoor recreations.D. International foodBIn winter Hammerfest is a thirty-hour ride by bus from Oslo, though why anyone would want to go there in winter is a question worth considering. It is on the edge of the world, the northernmost town in Europe, as far from London as London is from Tunis, a place of dark and cruel winters, where the sun sinks into the Arctic Ocean in November and does not rise again for ten weeks.I wanted to see the Northern Lights. Also, I had long harboured a half-formed urge to experience what life was like in such a remote and forbidding place. Sitting at home in England with a glass of whisky and a book of maps, this had seemed an excellent idea. But now as I picked my way through the grey, late-December slush（融雪）of Oslo I was beginning to have my doubts.Things had not started well. I had overslept at the hotel, missing breakfast, and had to leap into my clothes. I couldn't find a cab and had to drag my unreasonably overweighted bag eight blocks through slush to the central bus station. I had had huge difficulty persuading the staff at the Kreditkassen Bank on Karl Johans Gate to cash sufficient traveller's cheques to pay the overcharged 1,200-kroner bus fare-they simply could not be made to grasp that the William McGuire Bryson on my passport and the Bill Bryson on my traveller's cheques were both me-and now here I was arriving at the station two minutes before departure, breathless and steaming from the endless uphill exertion（费力）that is my life, and the girl at the ticket counter was telling me that she had no record of my reservation."This isn't happening," I said. "I'm still at home in England enjoying Christmas．Pass me a drop more port, will you, darling?" Actually, I said, "There must be some mistake. Please look again."The girl studied the passenger list. "No, Mr Bryson, your name is not here·”But I could see it, even upside-down. "There it is, second from the bottom"No," the girl decided, "that says Bemt Bjornson. That's a Norwegian name·”"It doesn't say Bernt Bjornson. It says Bill Bryson. Look at the loop（圆圈）of the 'y', the two ‘I's. Miss, please." But she wouldn't have it. "If I miss this bus when does the next one go?""Next week at the same time.”Oh, splendid."Miss, believe me, it says Bill Bryson.""No, it doesn't.""Miss, look, I've come from England. I'm carrying some medicine that could save a child's life.”She didn't buy this. "I want to see the manager.""He's in Stavanger.”"Listen, I made a reservation by telephone．If I don't get on this bus I’m going to write a letter to your manager that will cast a shadow over your career prospects（前景）for the rest of this century." This clearly did not alarm her. Then it occurred to me. "If this Bemt Bjornson doesn't show up, can I have his seat?""Sure.”Why don't I think of these things in the first place and save myself the suffering? "Thank you,"I said, and dragged my bag outside.24. What words can best describe Hammerfest in winter?A. Grey and dirty.B. Dark and cold.C. Unfriendly and expensive.D. Wild and forbidden.25. Why did the author mention the Kreditkassen Bank on Karl Johans Gate?A .To suggest that people there could be ridiculous and stubborn.B .To introduce the cultural differences in northern Europe and England.C. To give an example of an interesting story during his journey.D .To indicate that the bus fare was very expensive．26. What could be inferred from the passage?A. The author booked his bus ticket with a Norwegian name.B .The author paid the bus fare by traveller's cheque.C. The author would hopefully get on the bus．D .The girl at the ticket counter cared about the author's complaints.27. According to the last paragraph, the author probably felt_______at that moment.A .embarrassed B. contented C. regretful D. grateful28. We can learn from the passage that_________．A. the author's journey to the north was not worthwhileB .the Europeans didn't welcome visitorsC. the author wrote a letter to the girl's managerD. the author's journey to the north was not smoothIII.任务型阅读In a fast changing world, people seldom see a device or equipment that lasts for a long time these days. There are always new inventions, different models, or upgrades cropping up one after the other and as consumers people highly anticipate the faster and better kind than what they already have. Therefore it is quite a surprise that a mini projector(投影仪) is still in use today not only in small scale businesses, schools, or homes but in big corporations and institutions as well. Sure it has a few additional features here and there but the main function is the same.A mini projector today has been fitted with top of the line parts and high quality materials to ensure its efficiency and performance can meet the demands of whoever it is for. It is so designed that it can be used indoors or outdoors with the same functions. The mini projector, as the name suggests, is handy and compact and can easily be brought anywhere by just one person. It can support a broader scope of signals now; USB and card readers are now installed to cope with the pieces of equipments that people use today to store data.It can be used at home where it can provide as a form of entertainment or start a conversation during family bonding times. The owner can easily use the mini projector to share with other members the photos and videos of one particular vacation, or just to play a series of beautiful landscapes.Offices also benefit from a mini projector especially during an important meeting or presentation. With at par resolution(标准的分辨率), employees can easily decipher(辨认) the text or data with the use of a mini projector, its bright LED light is sufficient enough to provide a bright and clear image without distortion(变形). Users can now bring this anywhere with them and can beespecially useful on a location where the voltage(电压) is unknown.Perhaps one of the more common places where a mini projector is used constantly is in schools. Teachers or professors use this as an aid to a lesson or discussion to provide better visual aids than usual and to even deliver their lecture with the use of a mini projector and minimize the use of a board and writing pen. It is often said that children have a very short attention span but they remember things more when things are presented to them visually. This is the perfect use of a mini projector in classrooms where kids easily forget their lesson for the day. Teachers use this to show限时36完型BADAC DBDAC ADCBB CBBDA阅读理解BAB BACCD1.

Cullen HouseBFor decades, public health officials have puzzled over a surprising fact about HIV: Only about 10-20 percent of infants who are breastfed by infected mothers catch the virus. Tests show, though, that HIV is indeed present in breast milk, so these children are exposed to the virus multiple times daily for the first several months of their lives.Now, a group of scientists and doctors from Duke University has figured out why these babies don’t get infected. Human breast milk naturally contains a protein called Tenascin C that neutralizes HIV and, in most cases, prevents it from being passed from mother to child. Eventually, they say, the protein could potentially be valuable as an HIV-fighting tool for both infants and adults that are either HIV-positive or at risk of contracting the infection.The research, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, was inspired by previous work by other researchers showing that, both in tissue cultures (组织培养) and live mice, breast milk from HIV-negativemothers was naturally endowed with HIV-fighting properties. Scientists suggested that a few different proteins in the milk could potentially be responsible, but no one knew which one.As part of the study, the researchers divided breast milk into smaller fractions (部分) made up of specific proteins via a number of filters (过滤) — separating the proteins by size, electrical charge and other characteristics—and tested which of these fractions, when added to a tissue culture, prevented the cells from being infected by HIV. Eventually, they found that one particular protein was present in all the HIV-resistant fractions but in none of the others: Tenascin C.Tenascin C works by blocking a key protein on HIV’s envelope that normally ties up to a receptor on a T cell’s membrane called CCR5. In doing so, Tenascin C prevents HIV from mixing with the T cell and injecting its RNA inside.Still, the researchers say that other natural elements in milk might play a role in fighting HIV as well. “It’s clearly not the whole story, because we do have samples that have low amounts of this protein but still have HIV-neu tralizing activity,” the study’s lead author Permar says.“So it may be acting in concert with other antiviral and antimicrobial factors in the milk.”Whatever those other factors are, though, the finding vindicates (证明…的正确) recent changes to UN guidelines that recommend even HIV-positive mothers in resource-poor countries should breastfeed, if they’re taking anti-retroviral drugs to combat their own infection.The next steps, Permar says, are determining which area of Tenascin C is active and whether it can effectively prevent transmission in a live animal. If it works, it could potentially be incorporated (合并) into an HIV drug with broad er applications. It’s even possible that it could someday be adapted to reduce the risk of HIV transmission in adults as well as infants.19. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. The breast milk from an infected mother doesn’t contain HIV at all.B. It’s less likely for infants feeding on infected mothers’ breast milk to catch HIV.C. The possibilities of infants catching HIV have nothing to do with infected mothers.D. Children breastfed by infected mothers won’t catch HIV though exposed to it frequently.20. Why did the researchers divide breast milk into smaller fractions?A. To find out Tenascin C.B. To make up specific proteins.C. To add them to a tissue culture.D. To test what prevents cells being infected.21. Which of the following about Tenascin C is true?A. It has become an effective tool in fighting HIV.B. It was first found by Permar and her research group.C. It can prevent transmission in a live animal effectively.D. It can sometimes prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV.22. What can we know about Permar and her research group according to the passage?A. They have found a cure for HIV.B. They have helped change UN guidelines.C. They will do more researches on Tenascin C.D. Their finding is based on their previous work.CHe leant down to the pickpocket. The heaving and gasping had stopped, but he was still making a show of his breathlessness.“That’s better,” Mallon said. “Can you stand up? Try to stand up. Here,” he said, and gripped the pickpocket’s arm and forced him upright until he saw his face for the first time. As the pickpocket labored for breath, he gazed up at Mallon with his dark eyes. “How could you?” they asked.Mallon might have said, “Because you tried to steal from me.” But he was still conscious of the flush of joy he’d felt when his blow struck home —when he knew he’d hurt the man. Where that joy came from he couldn’t say, but he knew that its roots were deeper than some clumsy failed theft.Fat drops of rain began to patter on the awning (雨篷).“How are you?” Mallon said. “Can you walk?” The pickpocket turned away and leant against the store window with both hands, and his head sank lower as his shoulders rose and fell. A gray-haired woman inside the store rapped on the glass and made a shooing motion. When the pickpocket ignored her, she rapped harder and kept rapping.“I have to go,” Mallon said. “I’m sorry.” He looked up at the sky. “I’m sorry,” he said again, and stepped into the rain and walked quickly up the street.One of the Bangladeshi umbrella sellers was working the corner, and Mallon had just paid seven euros when he heard a woman shouting. He didn’t want to look back but did. It was the woman from the shop, pushing and batting the pickpocket away from the window while he bent down and covered his head like a boxer trying to get through the last seconds of a round. Mallon slipped his wallet back into his jacket pocket and took the umbrella that the Bangladeshi had opened for him.The pickpocket was out on the sidewalk now, in the rain. The woman stood just under the awning with her arms crossed over her chest.“Excuse me, madam,” Mallon said, coming up to them. “This man isn’t well. He needs to rest a moment.”“I know these people,” she said. “Our Romans don’t want them here.”The ra in fell in sheets, ran down the pickpocket’s shiny scalp and face, down his leather jacket.“Here,” Mallon said, and offered him the umbrella, but he only looked at Mallon with his hurt dark eyes and then lowered his head again. Mallon bumped him in the shoulder with the handle of the umbrella. “Go on —take it!” he said. And finally, with a beaten, unwilling look, the pickpocket did.And that was when he saw a taxi round the corner with a light glowing on its roof. Mallon ran out waving his arm and the cab turned sharply to the pavement, sending a lot of water over his shoes. He opened the door but couldn’t help looking back. The pickpocket had lowered the umbrella to the ground upside down and was leaning on the shaft, head low, neck bared to the sky.“Wait,” Mallon said to the driver. He went back and grabbed the pickpocket’s sleeve and pulled him to the cab. “Get in,” Mallon said, and took the umbrella and pushed him into the back seat. He leaned inside. “O.K., where do you live?”“No Gypsies!” the driver said. He was twisted around, glaring at the pickpocket.“Gypsy? Look, he’s not well. I’ll pay,” Mallon added.The driver shook his head. “No Gypsies. Get him out,”Mallon looked at the driver’s nameplate: Michele Kadare. “It’s the law,” he said, “If you don’t take us, Signor Kadare, I’ll report you and you’ll lose your license. Believe me —I am quiteserious.”The driver fastened those pale eyes on Mallon and turned and put his hands on the steering wheel. He raised his eyes to the rearview mirror and he and Mallon exchanged stares.“O.K., Mr. American,” he said. “You pay.”23. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 indicate?A. Mallon shouldn’t have saved the pickpocket.B. The pickpocket didn’t thank Mallon for his offer.C. The pickpocket blamed Mallon for his failure to steal.D. Mallon must have beaten the pickpocket before helping him.24. Where should the sentence “He hesitated, then turned back.” be placed?A. Between paragraphs 5 and 6.B. Between paragraphs 6 and 7.C. Between paragraphs 7 and 8.D. Between paragraphs 8 and 9.25. From the attitudes of the woman and the driver towards the pickpocket, we can conclude that ________.A. the Gypsies had a bad reputation in RomeB. the pickpock et frequently stole around the woman’s storeC. everyone was protected by the law in Rome except the GypsiesD. the pickpocket couldn’t purchase anything in the woman’s store26. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. The taxi didn’t t ake the pickpocket to his house in the end.B. The pickpocket succeeded in stealing something from Mallon.C. The pickpocket was a little suspicious of Mallon’s intention to help him.D. The umbrella seller gave an umbrella to Mallon free of charge.限时44单项选择21-25: BCACA 26-30: CABDC 31-35: BDBCD阅读AAD BDDC BCAC。

Parents, teachers and pupils, who took part in the investigation carried out for the biggest ever official review of the primary curriculum, argued that the number of subjects taught to very young people should be reduced.The review, being conducted by the government’s school’s director Sir Jim R ose, will consider how to redesign the primary school day to handle concerns that too many pupils leave primary school unable to read, write and do maths at the level expected of them. It will also address criticisms that pupils are expected to study so many subjects there is little time for creative learning.The 60 focus groups brought together 1,500 parents, pupils and school staff and is expected to heavily influence the thinking of the Rose review, which the government is promising to back. Instead of a broad range of subjects, pupils should study in-depth literacy and maths lessons alongside a more creative curriculum that encourages pupils to develop personal, learning and thinking skills, they say. Such lessons might include “healthy lifestyles, s ex and relationships education, drugs and alcohol education”.“Child and personal development as priorities have been shamefully neglected in recent years in the rush to hit targets in the basics.” John Bangs, head of education at the National Union of Teachers, said, “The worst thing would be to evaluate child development through the current high stakes testing system. That would weaken the capacity of teachers to meet children’s unique needs.”However, the shadow schools minister, Nick Gibb, said, “If lessons on lifestyle are given the same status as traditional subjects, it is the most disadvantaged children who will be worst affected.” “Children are not able to personally develop and succeed in the future if they don’t have a grasp of basic subjects such as maths and English early on in primary school. Removing high requirement from the primary curriculum would increase the inequality gap between less well-off pupils and the rest.” Nick added. A spokeswoman for the Department for Children, Schools a nd Families (DCSF) said, “This is a summary of stake holder’s view, not the views of the Qualifications and CurriculumAuthority or the DCSF, and has been submitted to Sir Jim Rose’s review as evidence to consider.”11. According to the focus groups, the result of learning too many subjects is most likely to be that__________.A. children may not have any freedomB. children may not have enough time for personal interestC. children may not know anything outside the classroomD. children may not have creative ability12. Which of the following is False about the review conducted by Sir Jim Rose?A. It will greatly influence the country’s future primary curriculum.B. It will remove high requirement from the primary curriculum.C. It is supported by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority or the DCSF.D. It needs to take fully into account varied views from the society.13. John Bangs’s attitude towards the current high stakes testing system is __________.A. negativeB. positiveC. uncertainD. cautious14. According to Nick Gibb, grasp of basic subjects early on in primary school is important for_______.A. the primary curriculum reformB. children’s development in the futureC. children’s educational equalityD. increasing the c hildren’s confidenceB ★★★★Most people know precious gemstones (宝石) by their appearances. An emerald flashes deep green, a ruby seems to hold a red fire inside, and a diamond shines like a star. It’s more difficult to tell where the gem was mined, since a diamond from Australia or Arkansas may appear the same to one from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, recently, a team of scientists has found a way to identify a gemstone’s origin.Beneath the surface of a gemstone, on the tiny level of atoms and molecules（分子）, lie clues (线索) to its origin. At this year’s meeting of the Geological Society of America in Minneapolis, Catherine McManus reported on a technique that uses lasers (激光) to clarify these clues and identify a stone’s homeland. McManus directs scientific resear ch at Materialytics, in Killeen, Texas. The company is developing the technique. “With enough data, we could identify which country, which mining place, even the individual mine a gemstone comes from,” McManus told Science News.Some gemstones, including many diamonds, come from war-torn countries. Sales of those “blood minerals” may encourage violent civil wars where innocent people are injured or killed. In an effort to reduce the trade in blood minerals, the U.S. government passed law in July 2010 that requires companies that sell gemstones to determine the origins of their stones.To figure out where gemstones come from, McManus and her team focus a powerful laser on a small sample of the gemstone. The technique is called laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. Just as heat can turn ice into water or water into steam, energy from the laser changes the state of matter of the stone. The laser changes a miniscule part of the gemstone into plasma, a gas state of matter in which tiny particles（微粒）called electrons separate from atoms.The plasma, which is superhot, produces a light pattern. (The science of analyzing this kind of light pattern is called spectroscopy.) Different elements produce different patterns, but McManus and her team say that gemstones from the same area produce similar patterns. Materialytics has already collected patterns from thousands of gemstones, including more than 200 from diamonds. They can compare the light pattern from an unknown gemstone to patterns they do know and look for a match. The light pattern acts like a signature, telling the researchers the origin of the gemstone.In a small test, the laser technique correctly identified the origins of 95 out of every 100 diamonds. For gemstones like emeralds and rubies, the technique proved successful for 98 out of every 100 stones. The scientists need to collect and analyze more samples, including those from war-torn countries, before the tool is ready for commercial use.Scientists like Barbara Dutrow, a mineralogist from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, find the technique exciting. “This is a basic new tool that could provide a better fingerprint of a material from a particular locality,” she told Science News.15. We learn from Paragraph 1 that __________.A. an emerald and a ruby are names of diamonds.B. it’s not difficult to tell where the gem was mined.C. appearances help to identify the origin of gemstones.D. diamonds from different places may appear the same.16. Why did the U.S. government pass law that requires companies selling gemstones to determinethe origins of their stones?A. To look for more gemstones.B. To encourage violent civil wars.C. To reduce the trade in blood minerals.D. To develop the economy.17. Which of the following facts most probably helps McManus and her team in identifying theorigin of stones?A. Heat can turn ice into water or water into steam.B. Gemstones from the same area produce similar light patterns.C. Laser can change a miniscule part of the gemstone into plasma.D. Materialytics has already collected patterns from thousands of gemstones.18. From the last two paragraphs, what can be inferred about the laser technique?A. It is ready for commercial use.B. People can use the new tool to find more gemstones.C. It can significantly reduce the gemstones trade in blood minerals.D. It will bring about a revolutionary change in identifying the origin of minerals.19. The author wrote this passage mainly to __________.A. tell us how to identify the origin of diamonds.B. introduce a laser technique in identifying a stone’s originC. prove identifying the origin of gemstones are difficultD. attract our attention to reducing trade in blood mineralsIII、任务型阅读Leadership Training on the Importance of CooperationAs we all know in order for a team to be successful they need to be able to effectively work together. Without cooperation within the team all of us members won’t be able to function at their fullest potential. And as a leader it would be your job to achieve cooperation within the whole team for only through this will you be able to achieve your goal with your team. This article will be helping you discover ways to bring out cooperation from the whole team. This would be teaching you on how to work with people through partnership which is based on mutual trust and respect. These are the vial things needed for the development of cooperation and teamwork which you need to focus in your leadership training.Be loyal to your teamAn organization is divided into two groups, the employees and the management. Most of the times the interests of the two groups don't go together and as a leader you would commonly be caught in between. You are a member of the management but you are working hand in hand with the employees. You also need to show concern for your team. Be on their side yet not compromising the management’s side. Let them understand that you know where the y’re coming fr om. Through this you will gain their loyalty which is the basic component of cooperation.Gain their trustGaining the trust of your members doesn't only give the chance to develop cooperation within the team. It also gives you the chance to gain loyalty from them. By gaining their loyalty they will be able to follow you without hesitation and doubt. However, gaining a person’s trust is more easily said than done but the most important thing required to gain a person’s trust is being genuine and consistent. Be always fair on all your members at all times.Don't make them feel you’re just after your gainsIn building a connection with your team, you should always make them feel that you’re not just using them for your own gains. You should learn that people don't like the feeling of being used by others. They would be discouraged and would tend not to do their best if they feel that way. You should make them feel that you’re pushing them not only for your own gains but also for their benefits. Avoid making them feel that you are just using them for your own reasons.A team won’t ever be successful without teamwork and cooperation. Therefore as a leader try your very best to inspire teamwork on your team. Be a role model to your team and always show them that you are a team player. This would greatly encourage your team to follow your example.限时15 周建梅单选AAABA BACAC阅读DCAB DCBDB任务 1. success 2. fail 3. concern 4. hesitate 5. easy 6. fairly 7. use8. hate 9. discourage/ prevent/ stop/ keep/ block 10. example。

Even at the height of the sales, shoplifters today never know 4 they are being watched by one of those evil little balls that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goods. As if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed 5 and obliged to attend a showing of their performance in court. Selfridges was the first big London store to install closed-circuit videotape equipment to watch its sales floors.

The cold of space will freeze skin in a short time. The fierce heat of the sun can cause severe burns. The lack of atmosphere can cause gases in the body to expand and even burst. With no oxygen to breathe, a human being will die in only a few moments. Radiation from the sun is another risk in space. So is damage from small pieces of rock and objects like meteoroids (陨石).In 1933, an American flyer, Wiley Post, designed one of the first successful devices to protect a pilot at extreme heights. It was a large device that looked like a can surrounded the pilot's head. Astronauts in the American space agency (NASA) flew the first American space flights in the early 1960s. The clothing was similar to that invented by Wiley Post.Today, astronauts wear very different protective clothing. It lets them move, do useful tasks, and stay outside their spacecraft in comfort and safety for several hours. The spacesuit is called the shuttle extravehicular mobility unit or EMU. It was designed to endure longer and to permit more movement than earlier spacesuits.The EMU has a number of parts that an astronaut can link together by using only one hand, which makes it possible for each astronaut to select the parts that fit correctly.Nowadays, NASA scientists are also considering the kind of spacesuits that would be needed for exploration on the planet Mars. Because of the gravity on Mars, spacesuits may have to be designed to be lighter than suits used in orbit or on the moon. The equipment may also have to protect astronauts from dust carried in the winds on Mars. And, they must be easy to repair and keep clean during a longer flight to and from the red planet.21. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the dangers of space environment?A. Lack of oxygen.B. Fierce heat from the sun.C. Gases in the body.D. Radiation from the sun.22. Which of the following statements is true, according to this passage?A. Wiley Post designed the first protective clothing for astronauts.B. Astronauts wearing earlier spacesuits had some difficulty in moving, doinguseful tasks and so on.C. EMU has many parts that can be linked together by using two hands.D. Special spacesuits have been used for exploration of the planet Mars.23. The underlined word “endure” means _______.A. provideB. moveC. liveD. last24. The best title of the passage might be ______.A. Space explorationB. Astronauts’ flightsC. The Advantages of SpacesuitsD. The Evolution of SpacesuitsBIsamu Akasaki of Meijo University, Hiroshi Amano of Nagoya University and Shuji Nakamura of the University of California, Santa Barbara, share the 2014 Nobel physics prize for the invention of the blue light-emitting diode(LED).The light of candles and lamps gave way to the incandescent bulb (白炽灯) in the 19th century, but such bulbs still waste a great deal of electrical energy as heat. An LED uses semiconductors to transform electricity into light with almost perfect efficiency. In an LED, light is produced when negative electrons combine with positive “holes” in very thin layers of semiconductors. Red LEDs came first, in the early 1960s. Green ones took until the end of that decade. But blue, the third primary colour needed to be able to generate white light, was difficult to find. Scientists failed for decades in their attempts to create blue LEDs. These were extremely important though if white LED lighting was ever to become a reality: only blue light --- which has the highest visible frequencies --- can be transformed into white light.The stumbling block was that no one had a way to grow a material called gallium nitride. In 1986, Akasaki and Amano cracked the problem by growingthe material on sapphire coated with aluminium nitride. Six years and countless failed experiments later, they revealed their first LED that gave off bright blue light. Nakamura, meanwhile, grew the first layer of gallium nitride at a low temperature, and adding further layers at higher temperatures. In 1992, Nakamura made another major breakthrough that showed how to change gallium nitride layers to carry the positive holes needed to make blue LEDs work.White LED lights have great benefits on mankind. Unlike some energy-efficient lightbulbs, they come on instantly. They can survive 11 years of continuous use. The three scientists went on to join forces to build a blue laser, which had at its heart a blue LED the size of a grain of sand. Because blue light has such a short wavelength, it can store far more information than other colours, quickly leading to the development of Blue-ray discs.Frances Saunders, president of the UK Institute of Physics, said: “This is physics research that is having a direct impact on the grandest of scales (规模), helping protect our environment, as well as turning up in our everyday electronic gadgets (设备).”25. Paragraph 2 is mainly about _____.A. when the three LEDs were inventedB. how blue LEDs were inventedC. why blue LEDs are so importantD. how the three LEDs work26. What is the key material in making blue LEDs?A. Gallium nitrideB. SapphireC. aluminium nitrideD. temperature27. According to the passage, blue LEDs have the striking features except _____.A. improved efficiencyB. increased storageC. longer lasting in useD. good value for moneyIII. 任务型阅读Do you love traveling? If the answer is yes, then have you ever thought about why? You may maintain that traveling can help you expand your scope of knowledge, especially geographical and historical learning. It will provide more chances for you to enjoy food and try on clothes that you otherwise cannot possible have. A famous English author Francis Bacon (1561-1626) makes a point when he says that, “Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience.”Evidence of leisure travel can be traced as far back as ancient Babylon. This year, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council, the 1 billionth tourist will cross an international boundary before the end of this month. That means that one in seven people on the planet traveled this year, something that would not have been possible a few decades ago. Around 20 years ago only the rich could travel.While the US and France remain the two largest destinations for worldtravel, experts say much of the explosive growth in tourism has been to countries like Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, and the Ivory Coast, which weren’t even on the world tourism map a decade ago. The top five destinations in the world, according to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, are Paris, London, New York, the Mediterranean, Turkey.Several factors have led to the boom in world travel. The prosperity (富裕) of people in Asia is one factor. People in Asian developing countries have lifted their incomes above middle-class levels in the past few years. And a lot of them have used their new wealth to travel. In addition, travel costs have been reduced thanks to the rapid development of transportation, and限时436-40 BCDAC 41-45 ACCCD 46-50 BAAAD 51-55CADCD阅读 CBDD CAD任务型阅读71. geography 72.food(s) 73.Dating 74.decades 75.reach 76.destinations 77. explosively/quickly/rapidly/fast 78.resulting 79.richer/wealthier 80.
