A.failing

B.open

C.successful

D.risky

正确答案:C

答案解析:题干大意：我们很高兴地宣布，今年的生意很兴隆。句中booming的意思是“兴旺的，繁荣的”，如：Port construction investigation is booming all over the country.（港口建设和投资的热潮正在全国范围内兴起。）failing：下降的；open：开放的；successful：成功的；risky：冒险的，如：Doctors say the operation is too risky.（医生表示这个手术风险太大。）因此，successful相对于其他选项更为合适。

2、African wild dogFinding a babysitter while you go out to work is, fｏｒexample, an inconvenience. Fｏｒthe African wild dog, one of the continent\'s most endangered carnivores （食肉动物), it\'s a matter of life ａｎｄ　death. A new research shows that once packs (兽群) fall below a certain size, they are not enough animals to both hunt food ａｎｄ　stay at home protecting the young.The African wild dog has declined drastically over the past century. Habitual loss (栖息地的丧失), persecution ａｎｄ　unexplained outbreaks of disease have all been blamed. Only 3, 000 to5,000 animals remain, ａｎｄ　the species is expected to go extinct within decades if the trend continues.Other large carnivores such as the spotted hyena (鬣狗) face similar pressures, yet are not declining. Now Franck Courchamp of Cambridge University has found a reason why. The dog\'s weakness lies in its social organization.Within each pack of up to 20 adults ａｎｄ　pups, only the dominant male ａｎｄ　female breed. The remaining animals help raise the pups, cooperating to hunt prey ａｎｄ　defend the kill from other carnivores.Because pups can\'t keep up on a hunt, large packs leave an adult behind to protect them from predators (捕猎者), which include lions ａｎｄ　hyenas. But leaving a babysitter also carries costs. A smaller hunting party is less able to tackle large prey ａｎｄ　to defend the kill. There is also one less stomach in which to carry food back to the den, ａｎｄ　one more mouth to feed when they get there.Courchamp investigated this awkward trade-off (权衡) by modeling how the costs of a babysitter change with decreasing pack size. This showed that packs of more than five adults should be able to feed all the pups ａｎｄ　still spare a babysitter. But with smaller packs, either the hunting ｏｒthe babysitting suffers, ｏｒthe animals have to compensate by increasing the number of hunting excursions which itself carries a cost to the pack.Field observations in Zimbabwe supported the model. Packs of five animals ｏｒfewer left pups unguarded more frequently than larger packs did. There was also evidence that when they did leave a babysitter, they were forced to hunt more often.A pack which drops below a critical size becomes caught in a vicious circle (恶性循环), says Courchamp, who is now at Paris-Sud University. "Poｏｒreproduction ａｎｄ　low survival further reduces pack size, culminating in (最终造成) failure of the whole pack. " ａｎｄ　deaths caused by human activity, says Courchamp, may be what reduce pack numbers to below the sustamable threshold. Mammal ecologist Chris Carbone at London\'s Institute of Zoology agrees. Maintaining the integrity of wild dog packs will be vitalin preserving the species, he says.The African wild dog has been endangered.【单选题】

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:A

答案解析:答案的依据是第2段：在过去的一个世纪里，非洲野狗的数量急剧下降。如果这个势头继续下去的话，在数十年里，这个物种就会灭绝。因此题干的说法是正确的。

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

正确答案:F

答案解析:第46题前面的句子有certain species，后面的句子有still others，这一定是英语中“some/certain. …. others. …still others”的固定结构。仅从这一点判断，F是答案。

4、Intelligent Machines1. Medical scientists are already putting computer chips (芯片) directly into the brain to help people who have Parkinson\'s disease, but in what other ways might computer technology be able to help us? Ray Kurzweil is authｏｒof the successful book The Age of Intelligent Machines ａｎｄ　is one of the world\'s best computer research scientists. He is researching the possibilities.2. Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. An example of this is Ramona; the virtual (虚拟的) hostess of Kurzweil\'s homepage, who is programmed to understａｎｄ　what you say. Visitors to the site can have their conversations with her, ａｎｄ　Ramona also dances ａｎｄ　sings.3. Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical disabilities. One of his ideas is a "seeing machine". This will be "like a friend that could describe what is going on in the visible world", he explains. Blind people will use a visual sensｏｒ(探测器) which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses. This sensｏｒwill describe to the person everything it sees.4. Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the "listening machine". This invention will recognize millions of words ａｎｄ　understａｎｄ　any speaker. The listening machine will also be able to trans late into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it.5. But it is not just about helping people with disabilities. Looking further into the future, Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to download our entire consciousness onto a computer. This technology probably won\'t be ready fｏｒat least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.People without hearing problems may also be interested in using ____.【单选题】

A.what you say

B.a pair of sunglasses

C.the listening machine

D.a visual sensor

E.who have disabilities

F.living forever in a computer

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题难度不大，针对第四段最后一句出题，考生可根据题干提示词回到文章定位，找到第四段最后一句：The listening machine will also be able to translate into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it。 回来再看选项，很明显，答案是C。

5、Some Unusual CelebrationsSome holidays are well - known all around the world. Among them are New Year\'s Eve Celebrations. Also days are common in honｏｒof love ａｎｄ　friendship, like Valentine\'s Day. Each country has its own special holidays too, to mark important events in its history. Schools, banks, ａｎｄ　government offices all close on days like these. Some of the days people celebrate, however, are less serious. A few of them are really very strange.Of course, they are not strange to the people who celebrate them. Perhaps that is because the celebrations have long traditions. Consider April Fool\'s Day, fｏｒexample. No one knows when ｏｒwhy it began. Today it is celebrated in many countries－France, England, ａｎｄ　Australia, etc. On this day, people play practical jokes. Jokes are supposed to be funny, but these jokes do not make everyone laugh. The ones who laugh are the ones playing the jokes. The people they fool often get angry. Does celebrating this day make sense to you?Dyngus Day in Polａｎｄ　seems strange, too. On this day, it is traditional fｏｒboys to pour water over the heads of girls. Here is the strangest part: they do it to girls they like.Other unusual celebrations take place in a single city ｏｒtown. A holiday called La Tomatina is celebrated in Bunol, Spain. Every year, in late August, big trucks carry more than 200,000 pounds of tomatoes into this little town. ____ Fｏｒtwo hours, people in the streets throw tomatoes at each other. Everyone ends up red from head to toe.August 10 marks the start of the Puck Fair, an Irish festival with a very unusual tradition. People from the town of Killorglin go up into the mountains ａｎｄ　catch a wild goat. They bring him back to town, put a crown on his head, ａｎｄ　make him king fｏｒthree days.There are also some celebrations that are really strange. In the United States, sometimes one person gets an idea fｏｒa new holiday ａｎｄ　tries to get others to accept it. Whose idea was Public Sleeping Day? That one is on February 28. It may seem strange, but it sounds like more fun than the one on February 9. That is supposed to be Toothache Day.Do you like the idea of inventing a new holiday? If you do, then you will want to mark March 26 on your calendar. That is Make Up Your Own Holiday Day.【单选题】

A.They bring him back to town, put a crown on his head, ａｎｄ　make him king fｏｒthree days.

B.Some of the days people celebrate, however, are less serious.

C.That is supposed to be Toothache Day.

D.Then begins the world\'s biggest food fight.

E.Some people have fun imagining new holidays.

F.Jokes are supposed to be funny, but these jokes do not make everyone laugh.

正确答案:D

答案解析:本段提到了西红柿节，与食物有关，只有提到了食物，把D代入到原文中。符合上下文逻辑，是答案。

6、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.America\'s 50th female astronaut is right now moving round the Earth.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:B

答案解析:本题有一定难度，不要靠科学常识来答题，要严格按文章的本意来答题。最后一段第一句谈到，第50位妇女离开地球，正在上空绕轨道运行，因此按文章本意来说围绕地球运行是错的，所以本题错误，答案是B。

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 4 ______【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:B

答案解析:第4段说，受到工业污染的土壤含有重金属，而重金属很稳定，不容易降解。因此某些微量重金属能使人致癌和中毒。

9、Indian\'s NamesEach Indian was supposed to keep his birth name until he was old enough to earn one fｏｒhimself. But his playmates would always give him a name of their own. No matter what his parents called him, his childhood friends would use the name they had chosen. Often it was not pleasing, such as Bow Legs ｏｒBad Boy. But sometimes a name fit so well that the youngster found it difficult to shake it off. If he could not earn a better one from a war later, he could be stuck with a name like Bow Legs fｏｒthe rest of his life.The Indian earned his real name when he was old enough fｏｒhis first fight against the enemy. His life name depended on how he acted during this first battle. When he returned from the war, the whole tribe would gather ａｎｄ　observe the ceremony in which he would be given his name by the chief. If he had done well, he would get a good name. Otherwise he might be called Crazy Wolf ｏｒMan-Afraid-of-a Horse. So an Indian\'s name told his record ｏｒdescribed the kind of man he was.A man was given many chances to improve his name, however, if in a later battle he was brave in fighting against the enemy, he was given a better name. Some of our great fighters had as many as twelve names, all good ａｎｄ　each better than the last.An Indian\'s names belonged to him fｏｒthe rest of his life. No one else could use them. Even he himself could not give them away because names were assigned by the tribe, not the family. So no man could pass on his name unless the chief ａｎｄ　the tribe asked him to do so.Sometimes an Indian would be asked to give his name to a son who had performed a noticeable deed. I know of only three ｏｒfour times when this happened. It is the rarest honｏｒfｏｒa person -the honｏｒof assuming his father\'s name.If an Indian had more than ten names, it meant that_____.【单选题】

A.many people in the tribe liked him.

B.he was a great fighter.

C.he had a lot of friends.

D.he had fought in fewer than ten battles.

正确答案:B

答案解析:由第3段可知印度人有很多机会改进名字，如果下一次战争中表现出色就会得到更好的名字。一些出色的斗士可能有12个名字，而且每一个都比上一个好。有10多个名字的人一定是了不起的斗士，所以选B。

10、A Glass of MilkOne day, a poｏｒboy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods doｏｒto doｏｒfound that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to beg fｏｒa meal at the next house.However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked fｏｒa drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, ａｎｄ　then asked, "How much do I owe you?""You don\'t owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept pay fｏｒa kindness," he said, "Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart. " As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but also increased his faith in God ａｎｄ　the human race. He was about to give up ａｎｄ　quit before this point.Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called in to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous was called in fｏｒthe consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose ａｎｄ　went down through the hospital hall into her room.Dressed in his doctor\'s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room ａｎｄ　determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her case.After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him fｏｒapproval. He looked at it ａｎｄ　then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, ａｎｄ　the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words. . ."Paid in full with a glass of milk," signed Dr. Howard KellyTears of joy flooded her eyes as she prayed silently: "Thank You, God. Your love has spread through human hearts ａｎｄ　hands. "The boy was very sad when the young women opened the door.【单选题】
