1、A Strong Greenhouse Gas1 Methane is a colorless, odorless gas; it is also a potent greenhouse gas, ａｎｄ　once released into the atmospheres, it absorbs beat radiating from Earth\'s surface. That\'s why methane is a majｏｒcontributｏｒto the planet\'s increasing temperature rise ｏｒglobal warming. Molecule fｏｒmolecule, methane\'s heat-trapping power in the atmosphere is 21 times stronger than carbon dioxide, the most abundant greenhouse gas.2 With 13 billion cows belching almost constantly around the world (100 million in the U. S. alone), it\'s no surprise that menace released by livestock is one of the chief sources of the gas. Other prime methane sources: petroleum, drilling, coal mining, solid-waste landfills ａｎｄ　wetlands.3 Greenhouse gases like methane ａｎｄ　carbon dioxide make up only a small part of Earth\'s atmosphere, which is 78 percent nitrogen ａｎｄ　nearly 21 percent oxygen. ａｎｄ　without greenhouse gases to trap the sun\'s heat ａｎｄ　warm the planet, life as we know it couldn\'t exist. But in the last200 years, human activity that requires burning oil, natural gas, ａｎｄ　coal fｏｒenergy has magnified the greenhouse effect.4 Atmospheric concentrations of methane have more than doubled in the last two centuries. Blame fｏｒthis often focuses on big industries ａｎｄ　gas-guzzling vehicles. But agriculture plays a majｏｒrole, too. In the past 40 years alone, the global cattle population has doubled.5 Cows munch mostly grasses ａｎｄ　hay yet they grow big ａｎｄ　hefty. Why? Because of the rumen. The rumen holds 160 liters of food ａｎｄ　billions of microbes. These microscopic bacteria ａｎｄ　protozoa break down cellulose ａｎｄ　Fiber into digestible nutrients. A cow couldn\'t live without its microbes. As the microbes digest cellulose, trey release methane. The process occurs in all animals with a rumen (cows, sheep, ａｎｄ　goats, fｏｒexample), ａｎｄ　it makes them very gassy. It\'s part of their normal digestion process. When they drew their cud, they regurgitate some food to rechew it, ａｎｄ　all this gas comes out. The average cow expels 600 liters of methane a day.That\'s why we say livestock gas is also a majｏｒfactｏｒof causing the global warming.Paragraph l ____【单选题】

A.Life of Macroscopic Bacteria in Livestock\'s Rumen

B.Ways to Reduce Methane\'s Heat-trapping Power

C.Agriculture Also Contributes to Increased Concentrations of Methane in the Atmosphere

D.Why Livestock Releases Methane

E.Methane as a Strong Greenhouse Gas

F.Livestock as a Prime Factｏｒof the Greenhouse Effect

正确答案:E

答案解析:本段的第3句点出了“methane\'s heat-trapping power in the atmosphere is 21 times stronger than carbon dioxide. ”

3、Operatunity1. Operatunity is a TV talent show fｏｒamateur opera singers, The winners get the chance to sing with the English National Opera. When two housewives, Denise Leigh ａｎｄ　Jane Gilchrist won in 2002, their lives changed forever, As they sang Verdi\'s Rigoletto at the Coliseum (音乐厅) in Rome, they were transformed from working mothers into opera celebrities (名人).2. "I live in the village I was born in," says Denise, who is blind. "Lots of my neighbours are family, ａｎｄ　my life is all about my three children. Jane, who worked as a cleaner ａｎｄ　a shop assistant, was in a similar situation." She says. All I had to look forward to was seeing my four children grow up, ａｎｄ　I love them, but ... you know there must be more things than life. Winning Operatunity has opened up avenues I never knew existed."3. "Last year was amazing," Denise continues, "Last month was Paris, before that we were recording at Abbey Road, in London, ａｎｄ　recently we had our album launch at the Royal Opera House" "We\'ve been treated like princesses," laughs Jane, "... champagne, chocolates, five - star hotels ..."4. But it wasn\'t all so easy. FｏｒDenise, the worst part was waiting at the beginning. "After I\'d sent in my application form I worried fｏｒa month, Then I had to wait ten days after my first audition (试唱). That was awful."

They couldn’t take their children with them while they were away singing, so they had to organise childcare. However, there\'s been no problem with the physical side of singing: "We didn\'t have to worry about that as we\'ve had lots of help ａｎｄ　wonderful voice training." says Jane. They also had to learn to deal with the media." The kids loved the fact that they could stay up ａｎｄ　watch us on TV, but I just couldn\'t understａｎｄ　why some newspapers were more interested in the fact I divorced at 21, rather than the fact I had just sung at the Coliseum, says Denise.Paragraph 2 ____【单选题】

4、The State of Marriage TodayIs there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now, ａｎｄ　the evidence suggests it is going to get worse. If this trend continues, it will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson fｏｒthe National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times, ａｎｄ　extramarital (婚外的) affairs will be even more common than now.But what are the reasons fｏｒthis, ａｎｄ　is the picture really so gloomy (明暗的)? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The institution of marriage has been based fｏｒyears partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands－as they usually didn\'t have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well－paying jobs, this is no longer the case, So they don\'t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.In answer to the second question, the outlook may not be as pessimistic (悲观的) as it seems. While the rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now simply live together ａｎｄ　don\'t bother to marry. These couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage ｏｒdivorce statistics. In fact, more than 50% of first marriages survive.So is marriage really an outdated institution? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn\'t. ａｎｄ　it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress ａｎｄ　its consequences, such as heart problems, ａｎｄ　married men generally consider themselves more contented than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage ａｎｄ　apply it to all of our relationships!Which of the following about marriage is NOT mentioned in the passage? ____【单选题】

A.It is important to discover what makes a marriage successful.

B.Marriage has long been partly an economic need.

C.It is a fact that most people choose to get married.

D.Many people went abroad after divorce.

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题难度也不大，但是需要考生认真通读全文，读完后可以发现，文章并没有提到人们离婚后出国，所以答案是D。

They attend clubs from elementary schools, so many students have already been accustomed to clubs when they enter university.Our university now has 42 art clubs ａｎｄ　45 sports clubs.

8、Britain\'s Solo SailorEllen MacArthur started sailing when she was eight, going out on sailing trips with her aunt. She loved it so much that she saved her money fｏｒthree years to buy her first small sailing boat. When she was 18, she sailed alone around Britain ａｎｄ　won the "Young Sailｏｒof the Year" award.Ellen became famous in 2001. Aged only 24, she was one of the only two women who entered the Vendee Globe round the world solo race, which lasts 100 days. Despite of many problems, she came the second in the race out of 24 competitors ａｎｄ　she was given a very warm welcome when she returned.Ambition ａｎｄ　determination have always been a big part of Ellen\'s personality. When she was younger, she lived in a kind of hut (棚屋) fｏｒthree years while she was trying to get sponsorship to compete in a transatlantic race. Then she took a one - way ticket to France, bought a tiny seven meter Class Mini yacht (游艇), slept under it while she was repairing it, ａｎｄ　then she raced it 4,000 kilometres across the Atlantic in 1997, alone fｏｒ33 days.Ellen has to learn many things, because sailing single - handed means that she has to be her own captain, electrician, sailmaker, engineer, doctor, journalist, cameraman ａｎｄ　cooker, She also has to be very fit, ａｎｄ　because of the dangers of sleeping fｏｒlong periods of time she\'s in the middle of the ocean, she has trained herself to sleep fｏｒabout 20 minutes at a time.ａｎｄ　she needs courage.

9、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 both, 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 ____, 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.guards

B.government

C.students

D.professors

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“美国人持有枪支的根源在于对政府的不信任”，问题是和政府有关系的，最佳答案是B。本题也可先看选项，得到信息提示。

10、Human Space ExplorationWhile scientists are searching the cause of the Columbia disaster, NASA is moving ahead with plans to develop a new craft that would replace shuttles(航天飞机) on space station missions by2012 ａｎｄ　respond quickly to space station emergencies.The space agency released the first ｓｅｔof mission needs ａｎｄ　requirements several days ago fｏｒme orbital space plane (轨道航天飞机), which would be designed to transport a crew of four to ａｎｄ　from the International Space Station.Although it includes few specifics, the plan states the orbiter(轨道航天飞机) will be safer cheaper ａｎｄ　require less preparation time than the shuttle. It would be able to transport four crew members by 2012 though it would be available fｏｒrescue missions by 2010. NASA says the craft should be able to transport injured ｏｒill space station crew members to "definitive(决定性的) medical care" within 24 hours.The release of the requirements showed NASA remains focused on the long-term priorities of space exploration, even as questions exist concerning the loss of Columbia ａｎｄ　its seven member crew on February l, 2003.Expels at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have been working fｏｒyears on a successｏｒto the shuttle. The project, known as the Space Launch Initiative (倡议), was divided last year into two parts----one focusing on a future launch vehicle, the other on a space station orbiter. The orbiter is expected to be ready sooner.The program\'s managers say NASA officials have told them not to ａｌｔｅｒSpace Launch Initiative in light of the Columbia disaster.U. S. President George W. Bush asked Congress fｏｒabout US$1 billion fｏｒSpace Launch Initiative in 2004, funds that would be almost equally split between the Orbital Space Plane ａｎｄ　Next Generation Launch Technology.According to the passage, the l billion funds, if granted, would .【单选题】

A.be used to rebuild the International Space Station

B.be awarded to the scientists working at NASA

C.be shared by the two projects under the Space Launch Initiative

D.be spent on the investigation of the Columbia disaster

正确答案:C

答案解析:此题问的是10亿美元的款项被批准后用来干什么？选项A的意思是重建国际空间站，选项B的意思是颁发给在NASA工作的科学家，这两个选项都与原文意思不符。最后一段说，若10亿美元的款项获得国会的批准，这笔款项基本上平分给the Orbital Space Plane和Next Generation Launch Technology这两个研究项目，故C为正确答案。
