1、Houses of the FutureWhat will houses be like after thirty years? No one really knows, but architects are trying to predict. What will our home be like then?Future houses will have to be flexible. some 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 after 30 years 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?" ____ We will be able to leave cooking to the machines, just tasting things from time to time to check.The house of the future will be personal and each house will be different. You will be able to change the colorof the wall easily. You won\'t have to paint them and you\'ll be able to tell the wall to change the color! and if you don\'t like the colortoday, 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】

2、Money orFriendship orBoth1. Friends and money don\'t mix. It\'s a dangerous combination since a fight over money is one of the fastest ways to end a friendship. But what if a friend asks you to tend him orher some money? If you don\'t lend your friend the money, you risk losing the friend. If you do lend your friend the money, you risk losing both the friendship and your money.2. We have to face facts, so here are some situations you might run across with your buddies (伙伴) and some helpful tips (忠告) on how to deal with them. Thinking about why this person needs to borrow in the first place. If he is always living beyond his means, it is his fault, not yours. Any Sensible person would not put himself in a position of debt so often. So simply say "no" to this friend. Even if your friend really needs that money foremergency use and you are willing to help him, before you dive into your pocket, follow this reality check: Do you have the extra money? Are you sure you don\'t need it? Are you willing to write off that amount if it\'s not returned? If your answers are negative, do yourself a favorand say "no".3. Let\'s assume you can\'t stand saying "no" to your friend because you don\'t want him living off cat food. What do you do? Write down these details on a sheet of paper before opening up your wallet:Amount of the loan.Date of the loan.Time of repayment.Amount of interest (if any).Lender\'s and borrower\'s signature.This will at least keep the borrower from forgetting the loan so easily, If your friend\'s loan is past due, it\'s important that you ask him-and it\'s actually not rude. The longer you wait, the more you are brood (忧伤), and the more your resentment builds.4. You can send him a friendly reminder via E - mail. Tell him something like "I\'m going over my bank account and I\'m just wondering when we\'ll be able to settle that money thing." E - mail saves you from an uncomfortable face - to - face confrontation. There is almost no chance of turning a bad reaction into an argument. Unlike a public conversation, an E - mail message will always be private.5. After asking two orthree times, you might have to write it off. That\'s what happens. If he just doesn\'t have the money oris unwilling, then what kind of friend is that?If your friend refuses to return the money ____. 【单选题】
A.you can remind your friend of it via E - mail
B.you can lend more money to him orher
C.you must get to know why he orshe needs that money
D.if you should lend money to your friend
E.you can call the police to settle the issue
F.there is no need to maintain a friendly relation with him orher
正确答案:F
答案解析:本题难度也不大,答案依据不难找到。答案依据在最后一段。最后一段这一句,after asking two orthree times, you might have to write it off and the friendship with it,谈到在两三次要账未成后,就可以结束友谊了,回来看选项,F项符合文章句意,是答案。
3、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 size of a pack must be big enough forit to survive.【单选题】

5、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 ____ them to use, China is perhaps as rich as the USA in natural resources, but suffered formany years from 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】
A.move
B.force
C.turn
D.push
正确答案:C
答案解析:本题有一定难度,干扰项干扰较大,本题考点是动词短语turn to,使变成,最佳答案是C。
6、A New Doctors\' DilemmaWhen Christian Barnard, a South African doctor, performed the first human heart transplant in1967, the result was a worldwide moral debate on the ethics of transplanting organs. Hearts were not the first human organs to be transplanted but, in this case, if a donorgave his orher heart, he orshe would obviously and necessarily die (orbe dead). Kidney transplants, which were already quite common in 1967, often involved the transfer of a single kidney from a close living relative. The chances of survival of the donorwere somewhat diminished because he now had only one kidney and if that kidney were affected by disease, he would not have a healthy kidney in reserve. Nevertheless, the donorwould certainly not necessarily die.Undoubtedly, another reason why the first heart transplant was so controversial was the fact that we associate so many personality traits with the heart. Questions were asked of the type: "If a person had a different heart, would he still be the same person?", or"If doctors needed a dying person\'s heart, would they tend to declare him dead prematurely?", and so on.Today, not only hearts and kidneys, but also such extremely delicate organs as lungs and livers, are transplanted. These developments have led to a far higher orproportion of successful operations and this, in turn, has led to greater demand fortransplants. At the same time, many of the original moral questions surrounding heart transplants have been almost forgotten.However, as a result of the heavy demand fororgans, a new moral dilemma has emerged. Forexample, in the United States there are many people who would survive iflungs were available fortransplanting. In fact, about 80% of them die before a suitable donoris found. In these circumstances who would decide if a donorwere found whose lungs were equally suitable fortwo potential recipients?This problem is made worse by the fact that many patients, ortheir families, become desperate to find a donor. Some succeed in publicizing their situation in newspapers, to politicians oron television. Sometimes, as a result, suitable donors are found. But what would happen if another patient needed the organ more than the one who got the publicity? Who would decide if the other patient should get the organ? Would it be the doctors? orthe donor? orthe family who got the publicity? If such a dilemma developed it would be very difficult to resolve and it would be a matter of life ordeath to the patients involved.According to the passage, the new moral dilemma is the result of____.【单选题】
A.a higher proportion of successful operations.
B.too few human organs fortoo many potential recipients.
C.the argument whether some delicate organs should be transplanted.
D.so many failures in organ transplanting.
正确答案:B
答案解析:由第4段第1句话可以得出,对器官的需求量大、供不应求导致出现新的难题,因此选B。
7、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、Electric BackpackBackpacks are convenient. They can hold your books, your lunch, and a change of clothes, leaving your hands free to do other things. Someday, if you don\'t mind carrying a heavy load, your backpacks might also power your MP3 player, keep your cell phone running, and maybe even light your way home.Lawrence C. Rome and his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Mass, have invented a backpack that makes electricity from energy produced while its wearer walks. In military actions, search-and-rescue operations, and scientific field studies, people rely increasingly on cell phones, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, night-vision goggles, and other battery-powered devices to get around and do their work. The backpack\'s electricity-generating feature could dramatically reduce the amount of a wearer\'s load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome and his colleagues in the Sept. 9, Science.The backpack\'s electricity-creating powers depend on springs used to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against the wearer\'s back, and the whole pack moves up and down as the person walks. A gear mechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of an electrical generator, producing up to 7. 4 watts.Unexpectedly, tests showed that wearers of the new backpack altertheir gaits in response to the pack\'s oscillations, so that they carry loads more comfortably and with less effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprising advantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric and non-electric versions of the backpack.The backpack could be especially useful forsoldiers, scientists, mountaineers, and emergency workers who typically carry heavy backpacks. Forthe rest of us, power-generating backpacks could make it possible to walk, play video games, watch TV, and listen to music, all at the same time. Electricity-generating packs aren\'t on the market yet, but if you do get one eventually, just make sure to look both ways before crossing the street!What is implied in "if you do get one eventually, just make sure to look both ways before crossing the street!" 【单选题】
A.You will be too excited to watch the traffic.
B.Enjoying electronic devices while walking may invite traffic accidents.
C.It is not possible foryou to get such a backpack.
D.It is wise of you to have such a backpack.
正确答案:B
答案解析:这个句子的字面意思是:如果你终于得到这样的背包,过马路时一定要两面都看看。也就是说,不要因为同时玩着游戏、听着音乐、看着电视,太专注以致不注意来往车辆了。
10、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.Ramona is able to understand ____.【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:A
答案解析:本题难度也不大,针对第二段中间部分出题,考生可根据题干提示词,Ramona回到文章定位,找到第二段,第二句话,An example of this is Ramona,the virtual hostess of Kurzweil\'s homepage, who is programmed to understand what you say. 回来再看选项,很明显,答案是A。
