1、Ants as a Barometer of Ecological ChangeAt picnics, ants are pests. But they have their uses. In industries such as training, farming ａｎｄ　forestry, they can help gauge the health of the environment by just crawling around ａｎｄ　being antsy.It has been recognized fｏｒdecades that ants-which are highly sensitive to ecological change can provide a near-perfect barometer of the state of an ecosystem. Only certain species, fｏｒinstance, will continue to thrive at a forest site that has been cleared of trees. Others will die out fｏｒlack of food. ａｎｄ　still others will move in ａｎｄ　take up residence.By looking at which species populate a deforested area, scientists can determine how "stressed" the lａｎｄ　is. _____. Ants are used simply because they are so common ａｎｄ　comprise so many species.Where mine sites are being restored, fｏｒexample, some ant species will recognize the stripped lａｎｄ　more quickly than others. This allowed scientists to gauge the pace ａｎｄ　progress of the ecological recovery. Australian mining company Capricorn Coal Management has been successfully using ant surveys fｏｒyears to determine the rate of recovery of lａｎｄ　that it is replanting near its German Creek mine in Queensland.Ant surveys also have been used with mine-site recovery projects in Africa ａｎｄ　Brazil, where warm climates encourage dense ａｎｄ　diverse ant populations. "We found it worked extremely well there," says Jonathan Majer, a professｏｒof environmental biology. Yet the surveys are perfectly suited to climates throughout Asia, he says, because ants are so common throughout the region. As Majer puts it: "That\'s the great thing about ants. "Ant surveys are so highly-regarded as ecological indicators that governments worldwide accept their results when assessing the environmental impact of mining ａｎｄ　tree harvesting. Yet in other businesses, such as farming ａｎｄ　property development, ant surveys aren\'t used widely.Why not? Because many companies can\'t afford the expense ｏｒthe laboratory time needed to sift results fｏｒa comprehensive survey. The cost stems, also, from the scarcity of ant specialists. Employing those people are expensive. 【单选题】

A.This allowed scientists to gauge the pace ａｎｄ　progress of the ecological recovery.

B.Yet in other businesses, such as farming ａｎｄ　property development, ant surveys aren\'t used widely.

C.Employing those people are expensive.

D.They do this by sorting the ants, counting their numbers ａｎｄ　comparing the results with those of earlier surveys.

E.The evolution of ant species may have a strong impact on our ecosystem.

F.Others will die out fｏｒlack of food.

3、Gun Rights in the USImmediately after the shooting at Virginia Tech University, Americans gathered to mourn (致哀) the dead. The president ａｎｄ　the state governer both hurried there to share the grief. But the majority of Americans still cling to their right to own weapons.Strictly speaking, the US is not the only country here gun violence has destroyed lives, families ａｎｄ　communities in everyday circumstance. But the US is one of the few countries that seem unwilling ａｎｄ　politically incapable of doing anything serious to stop it.In countries like Britain ａｎｄ　Canada, the government adopted strict gun control soon after serious gun violence incidents. US leaders, however, are held hostage by the gun lobby (院外活动集团) ａｎｄ　the electoral (选举) system.The powerful National Rifle Association, the majｏｒsupporter of gun rights in the US, is too strong fｏｒany party to take on. Most Republicans oppose gun control anyway. Over the years, the Democrats have found that they can either campaign fｏｒgun control ｏｒwin power, not ____, they prefer power.According to the US Bureau of Justice Statistics, firearm (火器) incidents accounted fｏｒnine percent of the 4.7 million violent crimes in 2005. So although opinion polls show most Americans want stricter gun laws, many people don\'t want to give up their arms they keep to protect themselves.Dave Hancock, a Virginia gun lover, is one example. In an interview he said, "If one professｏｒin the Virginia incident had been carrying a legal weapon, they might have been able to stop all this. "In his opinion, the massacre (大屠杀) is an argument fｏｒmore people to carry weapons, not fewer.Americans\' clinging to the right to bear arms is not just a fear of crime, but a mistrust of government, commented UK\'s Guardian newspaper.One Virginia resident, who had a permit to carry a concealed (隐藏的) firearm, told the Guardian that it was every American\'s responsibility to have a gun."Each person," he said, "should not rely solely on the government fｏｒprotection."【单选题】

A.either

B.both

C.each

D.one

正确答案:B

答案解析:本题有一定难度，需要认真阅读文章，理解好句意。文章此处是说“要么为枪支控制发起活动，要么就是赢得总统大选，不可能两者都做到”，所以最佳答案是B。

4、A Country\'s Standard of LivingThe "standard of living" of any country means the average person\'s share of the goods ａｎｄ　services the country produces. A country\'s standard of living, therefore, depends first on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in this sense is not money, fｏｒwe do not live on money but on things that money can buy: "goods such as food ａｎｄ　clothing", ａｎｄ　"services" such as transport ａｎｄ　entertainment.A country\'s capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors most of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a country\'s natural resources. Some region of the world are well supplied with coal ａｎｄ　minerals, ａｎｄ　have fertile (肥沃的) soil ａｎｄ　a favorable climate, other regions possess none of them.Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use, China is perhaps as rich as the USA in natural resources, but suffered fｏｒmany years ____ civil ａｎｄ　external wars, Fｏｒthis ａｎｄ　other reasons it was unable to develop her resources. Sound ａｎｄ　stable political conditions, ａｎｄ　freedom from foreign invasions, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully ａｎｄ　steadily, to produce more wealth than other country.A country\'s standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced ａｎｄ　consumed within its own borders, but also upon what is directly produced through international trade. Fｏｒexample, Britain\'s wealth in foodstuffs ａｎｄ　other agricultural products would be much less if she had to depend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible fｏｒher surplus (剩余的) manufactured goods to be traded abroad fｏｒthe agricultural products which would otherwise be lacking. A country\'s wealth is, therefore, much influenced by its manufacturing capacity, providing that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures.【单选题】

C.with

D.from

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题有一定难度，干扰项干扰较大，本题考查动词短语suffer from，“遭受……”，最佳答案是D。

5、We are sure that he will get over his illness.【单选题】

6、Woman workThough some people have suggested that women should return to housework in ｏｒｃｅｒto leave more jobs fｏｒmen, the idea has been rejected by both women ａｎｄ　men in public opinion polls.Lately some ｕｎｉｏｎofficials have suggested that too many women are employed in types of work more suitable fｏｒmen ａｎｄ　that women should step aside to make way fｏｒunemployed young men. They argue that women, especially women in their childbearing years,actually delay economic development ａｎｄ　result in productivity, poｏｒquality ａｎｄ　inefficiency.To solve the problem, they suggested that working women stay at home while their husbands ｏｒbrothers were given double wages. They argue that under these circumstances, families would remain their same level of income, ａｎｄ　women could run the house ａｎｄ　raise children much better,The suggestion, however , has been flatly rejected by 9 0ut of 10 people polled .Some other people have suggested another way called "phased employment" theory. The theory suggests that a woman worker take leave from her job when she is seven months pregnant ａｎｄ　stay off the job ____ her baby reaches the age of 3. It suggested that women on leave receive 75 percent of their normal salary ａｎｄ　be allowed to return to work after the three-year period. This will benefit children, women, their families ａｎｄ　the society ａｎｄ　it definitely seems to be more acceptable than the suggestion that women return to their homes forever.【单选题】

A.when

B.until

C.after

D.while

正确答案:B

答案解析:文中的意思是“休假直到宝宝三岁再上班”，因此要用until。

7、A Bad IdeaThink you can walk, drive, take phone calls, e - mail ａｎｄ　listen to music at the same time? Well, New York\'s new law says you can\'t. ａｎｄ　you\'ll be fined $ 100 if you do so on a New York city street. The law went into force last month, following research ａｎｄ　a shocking number of accidents that involved. people using electronic gadgets (小巧机械) when crossing the street.Who\'s to blame? Scientists say that our multitasking (多任务处理) abilities are limited. "We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can," says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist (神经科学家) in Tennessee. "But a core limitation is the inability to concentrate on two things at once."The young people are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this perception is open to question. Aｇｒｏｕｐof 18 to 21 years old ａｎｄ　aｇｒｏｕｐof 35 to 39 years old were given 90 seconds to translate images into numbers, using a simple code. The youngerｇｒｏｕｐdid 10 percent better when not interrupted. But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call ｏｒan instant message, the olderｇｒｏｕｐmatched the youngerｇｒｏｕｐin speed ａｎｄ　accuracy.It is difficult to measure the productivity lost by multitaskers. Jonathan Spira, chief analyst at Basex, a business - research firm, estimates that the cost of interruptions to the American economy is nearly $650 billion a year, ____ The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers\' time was spent on interruptions ａｎｄ　recovery time before they returned to their main tasks. 【单选题】

A.Talking on a cell phone while driving brings you joy anyway.

B.The estimate is based on surveys with office workers.

C.The youngerｇｒｏｕｐdid 10 percent better when not interrupted.

D.However, an Oxford University research suggests this perception is open to question.

E.Scientists say that our multitasking (多任务处理) abilities are limited.

F.ａｎｄ　you\'ll be fined $ 100 if you do so on a New York city street.

8、Geology ａｎｄ　Heap(1)The importance of particular metals in the human diet has been realized within the past few decades, ａｎｄ　the idea that geology might be related to health has been recognized fｏｒa number of elements such as iodine, zinc ａｎｄ　selenium. Fｏｒexample, soils with low iodine contents produce crops, ａｎｄ　animals deficient in iodine. A lack of iodine in the human diet leads to some serious diseases.(2)The ultimate source of metals within the human body is rocks, which weather into soil, gaining ｏｒlosing some of their chemical constituents. The crops we eat selectively remove from the soil the elements that they require fｏｒgrowth. The water we drink contains trace elements leached from rock ａｎｄ　soil. Thus the geology ａｎｄ　geochemistry of the environment have effects on the chemistry ａｎｄ　health of plants, animals ａｎｄ　people.(3)So far there is no data to suggest that people living on metal-rich soils experience a potential health hazard. The levels of metals within naturally contaminated soils are generally not high enough to cause serious health problems. Living on metal-rich soils does not represent a health risk unless large quantities of soil are digested ｏｒmetal-rich dust is inhaled. However, small children are particularly exposed to metal-rich topsoil in playgrounds ａｎｄ　gardens. They are also the most likely ones to eat potentially dangerous metal-rich soil.(4)Heavy metals are persistent: they do not break down to other chemicals in the environment. Industrially polluted sites usually undergo intensive clean-up ａｎｄ　rehabilitation because heavy metals are a health concern once they enter the food chain. Some trace metals are alleged to cause cancer ａｎｄ　are also known to cause poisoning(5)In contrast, naturally contaminated soils have not been subject too risk assessment studies ａｎｄ　rehabilitation measures, despite the fact that they frequently possess metal concentrations well above those of such polluted by humans ａｎｄ　above environmental quality criteria.(6)There is a vital need to understａｎｄ　the potential risks ａｎｄ　long-term health effects of living on naturally contaminated soils. Future environmental investigations of naturally polluted soils should concentrate on the potential pathways of metals into the food chain ａｎｄ　human body. Geologists should be part of such studies as they can provide the essential background information on rock ａｎｄ　soil chemistry as well as the chemical forms of heavy metal pollution.Paragraph 6 ______【单选题】

A.No Evidence to Indicate Bad of Naturally Contaminated Soil

B.Potential Hazards of Human Contaminated Soils

C.Research an Channels of Heavy Metals Getting into Human Food Chain

D.Geology ａｎｄ　Health Problems

E.Rocks----the Ultimate Source of Soil Pollution

F.Long-term Health Effects on Children

正确答案:C

答案解析:答案的依据是本段的第2句：Future environmental investigations of naturally polluted soils should concentrate on the potential pathways of metals into the food chain ａｎｄ　human body.

9、Fighting fｏｒa Brighter Future fｏｒWomenWhen I was asked what it means to be a woman running fｏｒpresident, I always gave the same answer that I was proud to be running as a woman, but I was running because thought I\'d be the best president.But I am a woman and, like millions of women, I know there are still barriers ａｎｄ　biases (偏见) out there, often unconscious, ａｎｄ　I want to build an America that respects ａｎｄ　embraces the potential of every last one of us.I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worried about my daughter\'s future ａｎｄ　a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows.To build that future I see, we must make sure that women ａｎｄ　men understａｎｄ　the struggles of their grandmothers ａｎｄ　their mothers, ａｎｄ　that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, ａｎｄ　equal respect.Let us resolve ａｎｄ　work toward achieving very simple propositions (命题): there are no acceptable limits, ａｎｄ　there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21 st century in our country.You can also be so proud of it, from now on, it will be unremarkable fｏｒa woman to win primary state victories, unremarkable to let a woman in a close race to be our nominee (被提名者), unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. ａｎｄ　this is truly remarkable my friends.We are disappointed that we couldn\'t go all of the way, especially the young people who put so much into this campaign. It would break my heart if, in falling short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.We always aim high, work hard, ａｎｄ　care deeply about what you believe in. ａｎｄ　when you stumble (绰倒), keep faith. And, when you\'re knocked down, get right back up ａｎｄ　never listen to anyone who says you can\'t ｏｒshouldn\'t go on.As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman will leave the Earth ａｎｄ　orbit (绕轨道运行) overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.Hillary Clinton was elected president of the United States.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题的难度较大，需要通读全文做出判断。有考生根据新闻常识记忆，希拉里·克林顿不是美国总统，选了B，从而失分。要严格按照文章的本意来选择答案。第一段谈到I（希拉里）参加了总统选举，但是全文没有提及被选为美国总统的事情，所以本题是未提及的，答案是C。

10、Ceasing to Wear TiesIt\'s useless. It\'s dirty. It spreads disease. That\'s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called fｏｒhospital doctors to stop wearing ties.That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body ａｎｄ　keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains. Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate.Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries (雇佣军) in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Known as cravats(围巾), these became a popular fashion item in France ａｎｄ　eventually evolved into the tie.It\'s an interesting story, but it doesn\'t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth ｏｒsilk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明 ). In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments (团), sports clubs, schools ａｎｄ　gentleman\'s clubs. Each tie was in a particular ｓｅｔof colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain\'s most powerful classes. That made the tie itself a symbol of power ａｎｄ　respect. ａｎｄ　that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery, so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.Is there a future fｏｒties? The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.Paragraph 3 ________.【单选题】

A.Origin of the tie

B.British ties

C.Uselessness of the tie

D.Old-fashioned ties

E.Role of the tie

F.Signs of a tieless era

正确答案:A

答案解析:第三段的主题句是第一句Ties have an odd history（领带的历史比较奇怪）。接下来该段讲述了领带的由来。最初，领带是一种色彩斑斓的丝带，被东欧的克罗地亚士兵围在脖子上用来识别身份，后来在巴黎它逐渐成为一种时尚并最终演变成今天的领带。A选项Origin of the tie与其意思一致，故A为正确答案。
