1、Travel Across AfricaForsix hours we shot through the barren (荒芜的) landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I\'d bought in a market in Mozambique.Southern Africa was full of stories and visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring (咆哮) of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.and then the other things, dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto livng in one room, a kilometre from clean water.As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty and we hadn\'t seen another car forhours. and as I drove, something caught my eye. Something moved close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn\'t know how long they had been there next to us.I shouted to Dan: "Look!" But he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car fora few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened."Wild horses?" he said. "Why didn\'t you wake me up, Sophia?""I tried, but they were gone after a few seconds.""Are you sure you didn\'t dream it?""You were the one who was sleeping!""Typical," he said, "The best photos are the ones we never take."We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.Sophia woke Daniel up so that he could take photos of the horses.【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 turn 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 ____ 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.who
B.which
C.where
D.when
正确答案:B
答案解析:本题有一定难度,干扰项干扰较大,本题考查引导非限制性定语从句的关系词,先行词是products,所以正确答案是B。
6、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 ____ 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.hide
B.buy
C.keep
D.sell
正确答案:C
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“虽然美国人希望有比较严格的枪支管制法律,但又不想放弃持有枪支保护自己的权力”,应选择“持有”的意思,最佳答案是C。
7、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 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-designed space suits that protect astronauts from these temperature extremes.The space temperatures just discussed affect only our area of the solar system . 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 temperature barely _____ absolute zero. They won a Nobel Prize in Physics in 2001 fortheir work not a discovery in this car.Why is the two scientists\' work so important to science?In the 1920s, Satyendra Nath Bose was studying an interesting theory about particles we now call photons. Bose had trouble convincing Other scientists to believe so he contacted Albert Einstein. Einstein\'s calculations helped him theorize would behave as Bose thought but only at very cold temperatures.Scientists have also discovered that ultra-cold 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(d=vxt). With the long distances involved in space travel to know time as accurately as possible to get accurate distance.【单选题】
A.above
B.below
C.within
D.beyond
正确答案:A
答案解析:本段前面的句子说到最低温度不会低于-273℃,所以below、within、beyond都有悖于上述论述。只有above(高于)才与上文的意思相符。
8、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 they are now.But what are the reasons forthis, and is the picture really so gloomy (黑暗的)? 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! (2011年)Why is the outlook of marriage not as hopeless as it appears?【单选题】
A.Many people still like to get married.
B.The rate of divorce has actually decreased.
C.Over 60% of the marriages continue to exist.
D.The statistics of divorce is reliable.
正确答案:A
答案解析:细节考查题。题干问“前景似乎不像人们想的那么悲观的原因”。正确答案为A“很多人仍然想结婚”。离婚率没有下降而是上升了,故I3项与原文信息不符;选项C和D与原文内容不符。
