1、Genetically Modified FoodEuropean ｕｎｉｏｎenvironmental officials have determined that two kinds of genetically modified corn could harm butterflies, affect food chains ａｎｄ　disturb life in rivers ａｎｄ　streams, ａｎｄ　they have proposed a ban on the sale of the seeds, which are made by Dupont Pioneer, Dow Agrosciences ａｎｄ　Syngenta. The preliminary decisions are circulating within the European Commission, which has the final say. Some officials there are skeptical of a ban that would upｓｅｔthe powerful biotechnology industry ａｎｄ　could exacerbate tensions with important trading partners like the United States. The seeds are not available on the European market fｏｒcultivation.In the decisions, the environment commissioner, Stavros Dimas, contends that the genetically modified corn, ｏｒmaize could affect certain butterfly species, specifically the monarch, ａｎｄ　other beneficial insects. Fｏｒinstance, research this year indicates that larvae of the monarch butterfly exposed to the genetically modified corn "behave differently than other larvae." In the decision concerning the corn seeds produced by Dow ａｎｄ　Pioneer, Mr. Dimas calls "potential damage on the environment irreversible." In the decision on Syngenta\'s corn, he says that "the level of risk generated by the cultivation of this product fｏｒthe environment is unacceptable."A decision by the European ｕｎｉｏｎto bar cultivation of the genetically modified crops would be the first of its kind in the trade bloc, ａｎｄ　would intensify the continuing battle over genetically modified corn. Banning the applications fｏｒcorn crops also would mark a bold new step fｏｒEuropean environmental authorities, who are already aggressively pursuing regulations on emissions from cars ａｎｄ　aircraft, setting it at odds with the United States ａｎｄ　angering industries."These products have been grown in the U. S. ａｎｄ　other countries fｏｒyears," said Stephen Norton, a spokesman fｏｒthe United States trade representative. "We are not aware of any other case when a product has been rejected after having been reviewed ａｎｄ　determined safe by European food safety authorities," he said.Barbara Helfferich, a spokeswoman fｏｒMr. Dimas, declined to comment on the specifics of the procedure because commissioners had not yet made a final decision. But she said that the European ｕｎｉｏｎwas within its rights to make decisions based on the "precautionary principle" even when scientists had found no definitive evidence proving products can cause harm. She said that the decisions by Mr. Dimas could go before the commission within a few weeks, but she said that no date had been set. In the decisions, Mr. Dimas cited recent research showing that consumption of genetically modified corn byproducts reduced growth ａｎｄ　increased mortality of non-target stream insects ａｎｄ　that these insects are important prey fｏｒaquatic ａｎｄ　riparian predators ａｎｄ　that this could have unexpected ecosystem-scale consequences."Although still preliminary, his decisions could drastically tilt the policy against future approvals of genetically modified crops," said Nathalie Moll, a spokeswoman fｏｒEuropabio, an industryｇｒｏｕｐwith 80 members including Syngenta, Pioneer ａｎｄ　Dow. Europabio says that the crops grown using the genetically modified corn are already imported into several European countries, including France ａｎｄ　Germany, where they are used to feed animals like cows ａｎｄ　chickens.Rob Gianfranceschi, spokesman at the United States mission to the European ｕｎｉｏｎin Brussels, said it was too early to comment on a decision that had not yet been formalized. But he made clear that the United States remained frustrated with European policies on genetically modified crops.About the decisions, which one of the following statements is TRUE?【单选题】

A.The decisions aims to put a ban the sale of the seeds of genetically modified corn due to political ａｎｄ　biological concerns.

B.The decisions are warmly embraced by all EU members but bitterly rejected by their trade partners.

C.The decisions could probably be made even if no definitive evidence proving the products harmful is found.

D.there is high possibility that the decisions would be approved by the European Commission.

正确答案:C

答案解析:细节考查题。答案参见第五段，Dimas先生的发言人指出，即使没有确凿证据，欧洲委员会可以基于“预防原则”做出决定，故正确答案为C。

2、What Is the Coolest Gas in the Universe?What is the coldest air temperature ever recorded on the Earth? Where was this low temperature recorded? The coldest recorded temperature on Earth was - 91℃, which occurred in Antarctica (南极洲) in 1983.We encounter an interesting situation when we discuss temperatures in space.Temperatures in Earth orbit actually range from about +120℃ to - 120℃. The temperature depends upon whether you are in direct sunlight ｏｒshade. Obviously, -120℃ is colder than our body can safely endure. Thank NASA science fｏｒwell, de signed space suits that protect astronauts from these temperature extremes.The space temperatures just discussed affect only our areal of the solar _____. Obviously, it is hotter closer to the Sun ａｎｄ　colder as we travel away from the Sun. Astronomers estimate temperatures at Pluto are about - 210℃. How cold is the lowest estimated temperature in the entire universe? Again, it depends upon your location. We are taught it is supposedly impossible to have a temperature below absolute zero, which is - 273℃, at which atoms do not move. Two scientists, whose names are Cornell ａｎｄ　Wieman, have successfully cooled down a gas to a temperature barely above absolute zero. They won a Nobel Prize in Physics in 2001 fｏｒtheir work, not a discovery, in this case.Why is the two scientists\' work so important to science?In the 1920s, Satyendra Nath Bose was studying an interesting theory about special light particles we now call photons (光子). Bose had trouble convincing other scientists to believe his theory, so he contacted Albert Einstein. Einstein\'s calculations helped him theorize that atoms would behave as Bose thought—but only at very cold temperatures.Scientists have also discovered that ultra - cold(超冷) atoms can help them make the world\'s atomic clocks even more accurate. These clocks are so accurate today they would only lose one second every six million years! Such accuracy will help us travel in space because distance is velocity times time 4 ( d = v×t). With the long distances involved in space travel, we need to know time as accurately as possible to get accurate distance.【单选题】

A.system

B.energy

C.year

D.rays

正确答案:A

答案解析:本题难度不大，考查词义辨析，但干扰项干扰不大。可以先看选项得到信息提示。根据上下文逻辑，文章此处是说“太阳系”，答案是A。

3、Light Night, Dark StarsThousands of people around the globe step outside to gaze at their night sky. On a clear night, with no clouds, moonlight, ｏｒartificial lights to block the view, people can see more than 14,000 stars in the sky, says Dennis Ward, an astronomer(天文学家) with the University Corporation fｏｒAtmospheric Research( UCAR) in Boulder, Colo. But when people are surrounded by city lights, he says, they\'re lucky to see 150 stars.If you\'ve ever driven toward a big city at night ａｎｄ　seen its glow from a great distance, you\'ve witnessed light pollution. It occurs when light from streetlights, office buildings, signs, ａｎｄ　other sources streams into space ａｎｄ　illuminates (照亮) the night sky. This haze (朦胧) of light makes many stars invisible to people on Earth. Even at night, big cities like New York glow from light pollution, making stargazing difficult.Dust ａｎｄ　particles of pollution factories ａｎｄ　industries worsen the effects of light pollution. "If one city has a lot more light pollution than another," Ward says, "that city will suffer the effects of light pollution on a much greater scale."Hazy skies also make it far more difficult fｏｒastronomers to do their jobs.Cities are getting larger. Suburbs are growing in once dark, rural areas. Light from all this new development is increasingly obscuring (使变模糊) the faint (微弱的) light give off by distant stars. ａｎｄ　if scientists can\'t locate these objects, they can\'t learn more about them.Light pollution doesn\'t only affect star visibility. It can harm wild life too. It\'s clear that artificial light can attract animals, making them go off course. There\'s increasing evidence, fｏｒexample, that migrating (迁徙) birds use sunsets ａｎｄ　sunrises to help find their way, says Sydney Gauthreaux Jr. , a scientist at Clemson University in South Carolina, "When light occurs at night," he says, "it has a very disruptive (破坏性的) influence." Sometimes birds fly into lighted towers, high - rises, ａｎｄ　cables from radio ａｎｄ　television towers. Experts estimate that millions of birds die this way every year.On a clear night, people can see ______.【单选题】

A.150 stars

B.hundreds of stars

C.one thousａｎｄ　stars

D.more than 14,000 stars

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题难度不大，答案依据比较明显，在文章第一段第二句，这句话主要谈到，在晴朗的夜晚人们能看到14，000多颗星星，回来看选项，D项符合原文句意，是答案。

4、Houses of the FutureWhat will houses be like in thirty years\' time? No one really knows, but architects are trying to predict. _____Future houses will have to be flexible. In thirty years\' time even more of us will be working from home. So we will have to be able to use areas of the house fｏｒwork fｏｒpart of the day ａｎｄ　fｏｒliving fｏｒthe rest. Families grow ａｎｄ　change with children arriving, growing up ａｎｄ　leaving home. The house of the future will have to grow ａｎｄ　change with the family. Nothing will be as fixed as it is now. The house will always be changing to meet changing needs.Everyone agrees that in thirty years\' time we will be living in "intelligent" houses. We will be able to talk to our kitchen machines ａｎｄ　discuss with them what to do. Like this, "We\'ll be having a party this weekend. What food shall we cook?" ａｎｄ　the machine will tell us what food we will have to buy ａｎｄ　how to cook it. We will be able to leave most of the cooking to the machines, just tasting things from time to time to check.The house of the future will be personal, each house will be different. You will be able to change the colｏｒof the wall easily.You won\'t have to paint them-you\'ll be able to tell the wall to change the color! ａｎｄ　if you don\'t like the colｏｒthe next day, you will be able to have a new one. The only thing you won\'t be able to do is move the house somewhere else!【单选题】

A.You will be able to change the colｏｒof the wall easily.

B.The only thing you won\'t be able to do is move the house somewhere else!

C.ａｎｄ　the machine will tell us what food we will have to buy ａｎｄ　how to cook it.

D.What will our home be like then?

E.The house of the future will have to grow ａｎｄ　change with the family.

F.The kids might take their bedrooms with them as they leave.

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题的难度较大。需要认真阅读文章，特别是第一段和第二段，可用排除法和代入法。本题的上文谈到了没有人会知道30年后房子是什么样子，但建筑家们正在努力地预测。开头第一句用的是疑问句，下文的第一句就谈到未来的房子要十分灵活，用的是陈述句，可以推测此处很可能继续对未来房屋进行发问来展开文章的叙述，回来看选项，可以先排除A，B，C，F项，把D，E代入文章里，可以发现，D更能符合上下文语境和逻辑，是最佳答案。

5、AIDSAs a science writer, I don\'t have to wear emotional armｏｒvery often. Before I went to Zimbabwe fｏｒa visit, I had talked to other reporters who had spent time in Africa. All told me to get prepared fｏｒthe orphans, many of whom had caught the AIDS virus from their mothers ａｎｄ　the strong desire to make everything all right fｏｒthem. Then again, nothing could have prepared me fｏｒthe visit to creche(育婴堂) fｏｒAIDS orphans in Harare, where one sick, smiling four-year-old boy tried to keep up with the other kids playing ring-around-the-rosy but was so weak he kept falling to the floor, ｏｒmeeting a 25-year-old unmarried girl who cared fｏｒher nephew Only when I got back about a week later The boy who called his aunt "Mama" was too weak even to take the piece of banana I offered. Meanwhile photojournalist Karin Retief was visiting a room at the hospice (济贫院) where she had been told a particularly sweet orphan boy stayed. At first she did not see anyone on the bed ａｎｄ　was about to say he must be elsewhere, when suddenly she spotted his tiny arm in the air, his body lost in the folds of the bedclothes. Recently Karin wrote to me that she had been able to keep our assignment from taking too great an emotional suffering at the time. " ______, could I moum the people I met", she continued. "I sat in church ａｎｄ　wanted to ask the priest to pray fｏｒthe people with AIDS in Zimbabwe ａｎｄ　all over the world. Then all the people\'s faces, pain ａｎｄ　suffering became so real, I could not get the words out. I broke down ａｎｄ　cried ａｎｄ　cried fｏｒthem". 【单选题】

A.where she had been told a particularly sweet orphan boy stayed

B.who had spent time in Africa

C.Only when I got back about a week later

D.even though her only income was from growing ａｎｄ　selling a few vegetables at the local market

7、Walking to Exercise the BrainDo you think sitting ａｎｄ　studying all the time will improve students grades? Think again. Getting some exercise may help, too.New research with older people suggests that taking regular walks helps them pay attention better than if they didn\'t exercise.Previous research had shown that mice learn, remember ａｎｄ　pay attention better after a few weeks of working out on a running wheel. Mice that exercise have greater blood flow to the brain than those who don\'t. Their brain cells also make more connections.Neuroscientists (神经科学家) from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign wanted to find out if the same thing is true fｏｒpeople. First, they measured the physical fitness of 41 adults, ages 58 to 77, after each person walked I mile. Then, participants looked at arrows on a computer screen ａｎｄ　had to use computer keys to show which way one particular arrow was pointing.Adults who were physically fit were faster at the arrow task, ａｎｄ　their answers were just as accurate as their less - fit peers, the researchers found. The fitter participants also had more blood flow to a part of their brain responsible fｏｒpaying attention ａｎｄ　making decisions.In a second study, 15 elderly people who completed a 6 - month aerobic - training (有氧运动) course were faster at attention tasks compared with 14 seniors who just did stretching ａｎｄ　toning (韵律操) exercises fｏｒthe same amount of time.So, even going fｏｒa walk every 2 ｏｒ3 days fｏｒjust 10 to 45 minutes can help. That should be good news fｏｒthe elderly.The effects of exercising on the brains of younger people haven\'t been studied yet. Still, it can\'t hurt to take occasional breaks ａｎｄ　go fｏｒa walk ｏｒrun around with friends. Whatever you do, though, don\'t try to read ａｎｄ　walk at the same time. You could end up hurting yourself!After taking exercise fｏｒa few weeks, the mice were found to have ______.【单选题】

A.higher blood pressure

B.faster heartbeat

C.more blood flow to the brain

D.better appearance

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题难度不大，找到答案依据不难。答案依据在文章第三段。带着题干信息词回到文章定位。第三段第二句谈到运动老鼠大脑中的血液流量大于不运动的，回来看选项，很明显，C是近义解释，是答案。

8、Lakes, Too, Feel Global WarmingThere\'s no doubt, In the last few decades, the average temperature on Earth has been higher than it has been in hundreds of years. Around the world, people are starting to measure the effects of global warming ａｎｄ　trying to figure out what to do about it.Scientist recently used satellites to study the temperatures of lakes around the world ａｎｄ　they found that lakes are heating up. Between 1985 ａｎｄ　2009, satellites recorded the night time temperatures of the surfaces of 167 lakes. During those 24 years, the lakes got warmer by an average of about 0.045 degree Celsius per year.In some places, lakes have been warming by as much as 0.10 degree Celsius per year. At that rate, a lake may warm by a full degree Celsius in just 10 years. That difference may seem small you might not even notice it in your bath. But in a lake, slightly warmer temperatures could mean more algae (水藻) ａｎｄ　algae can make the lake poisonous to fish.The study shows that in some regions, lakes are warming faster than the air around them. This is important because scientists often use measurements of air temperature to study how Earth is warming. By using lake temperatures as well, scientists can get a better picture of global warming. The scientists say data on lakes give scientists a new way to measure the impact of climate change around the world.That\'s going to be useful, since no matter the country is too big ｏｒtoo small can\'t ignore climate changes. Scientists aren\'t the only ones concerned. Everyone who lives on Earth is going to be affected by the rapid warming of the planet. Many world leaders believe we might be able to do something about it, especially by reducing the amount of greenhouse(温室) gases we put into the air.That\'s why the United Nations started the Framework Convention on Climate Change, ｏｒUNFCCC. Every year the convention meets, ａｎｄ　representatives from countries around the world gather to talk about climate change ａｎｄ　discuss global solutions to the challenges of a warming world.Scientists have been keeping records of lake temperatures fｏｒover 30 years.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:B

答案解析:本题难度不大，答案依据比较明显，在文章第二段第二句：Between 1985 ａｎｄ　2009，satellites recorded the nighttime temperatures of the surfaces of 1671 akes.很明显，是24年，而不是30多年，题干和原文句意不符，答案是B。
