Let’s take a look at the rich 37 of the color purple.‎ Some scientists believe that the first plants to appear on Earth over 500 million years ago 38 looked purple, not green. Plants today are green because 39 use green chlorophyll (叶绿素) to produce energy. 40 these early plants probably used something called retinal, which is a dark purple color.‎ During the time of the roman Empire (37 BC-476 AD), it was very 41 to make purple dye (染料). The dye came from sea snails (海螺) .But10.000 dead sea snails 42 you just one gram (克)of purple dye… as well as a very bad smell!

Queen Elizabeth Is clothes were purple, but ordinary people were not allowed to 46 the color.‎ In 1856. William Perkin, an 18-year-old 47 student, noticed something strange while doing an experiment (实验). The chemicals (化学药品) he used to clean his instruments 48 with the chemicals he used in his experiment and produced a bright purple color.

It is very 51 to scientists. For example, Mars has seasons with 52 weather, but other planets have the same temperatures all year round. Was there 53 on Mars?‎ To find out, scientists need 54 if Mars ever had water. In 2004. two robot explores (探测器), or 'rovers', called Spirit and Opportunity were sent to look for 55 of water. These rovers can drive over rocks 56 all kind of rough ground. They can also use cameras and send photos 57 to Earth. First, the two rovers found chemicals and patterns (图文) in the rocks that were probably made by water. Then, they moved to another area and 58 other rocks which may have been created by water. Now scientists think there was probably water on the planet long ago. Today 59 are still not sure if there was life on the mars. They 60 need more information to decide.

In the background, a young girl reads a rejection (拒绝) letter from a ballet school. You have the wrong body for ballet, 'it says,' and at thirteen, you are too old. This was one of the most popular advertisements (广告) of 2014 and it describes American ballet Theatre's principal (主要的) dancer Misty Copeland.‎ This was not a real letter. But Copeland says it is very similar to letters from her childhood. While many dancers start at the age of three. Copeland only began to study ballet in 1995 as a thirteen-year-old. People often told her that she was too old, or that she didn't have the perfect body type (She is only 157 cm tall). Her family moved a lot, and it was sometimes difficult for her to attend ballet classes. But Copeland loved dancing and did not want to give up. She stayed with her ballet teacher during the week and spent time with her family only at the weekend. This was a difficult life, but she worked hard and won her first national competition when she was fourteen years old. Copeland joined the American Ballet Theatre in 2000 and performed in many ballets over the next few years. In 2007, she became a solo (单独的) performer, and in 2015 she became its principal dancer.‎ Copeland is now a dancer, author and Broadway performer. She also stars in the 2015 film A Ballerina's Tale. So what's next? According to Copeland, anything is possible: "My career (职业) really is just now beginning.'‎ ‎64.

But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are very similar in some ways. How?‎ Like humans, every dolphin has its own "name". The name is a special whistle (哨声). Each dolphin chooses a specific (特有的) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They "talk" to each other about a lot of things-such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one "speaks dolphin" yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.‎ Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods, and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun--just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.‎ Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent plan to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal (发信号) to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for them they get to eat some of the fish that escape (逃脱) from the net.‎ ‎68. What is a dolphin's “name”?‎ A. It is a kind of game. B. It is a body sign. C. It is a dolphin’s age. D. It is a specific sound.‎ ‎69. What does the underlined word "others" refer to?‎ A. Other fishes. B. Other people C. Other dolphins D. Other games ‎70. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. Some scientists can understand dolphins system of sounds.‎ B. Dolphins probably help fishermen by using their body language.‎ C Humans join dolphins' groups to get things we want.‎ D Dolphins can talk to humans about their age and their feelings.‎ ‎71. What's the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Dolphins can communicate with each other at birth. ‎ ‎ B. Dolphins are social animals because they play together.‎ C. Dolphins are smart and are like humans in some ways. ‎ D. Dolphins help humans do many things like catching fish.‎ D Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often ‎ wash their hands with soap. Experts believe that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.‎ Sidibe, a public health expert says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health'. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing (减少) the spread of diseases. Handwashing with soap prevents babies from getting ill and keeps children healthy and in school.‎ However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. This is partly because there aren't enough resources (资源) in poorer countries, but it's also because for many people, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. It's not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood -- but this is what Global Handwashing Day wants to do.‎ In 2008, the Indian cricket team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands to promote (促进) the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Every year since then, many different events have been held around the world. In 2014. Global Handwashing Day was used in the fight against Ebola, a very serious disease, with events held in affected (受感染的) African countries.‎ Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the message about the importance of clean hands. The hope is that handwashing becomes a necessary part of people's lives and improves the health of millions around the world.‎ ‎72. Who started Global Handwashing Day?‎ A. Public health experts. B. The Indians. C. African schoolchildren. D. Government leaders.‎ ‎73. What does the underlined word "impact" mean?‎ A. Danger. B. Influence. C. Background. D. Problem.‎ ‎74. What's the main idea of the last paragraph?‎ A. Washing hands with soap is good for public health.‎ B. Washing hands with soap doesn't become part of people's lives.‎ C. People are holding many different events to fight against diseases.‎ D. People all over the world are encouraged to wash hands with soap.‎ ‎75. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Learning to Use Soap. B. Fighting Against Diseases. C. Living a Healthy Life. D. Changing Your Habits.‎ B)请先阅读下面短文,掌握其大意然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中,使短文意思通顺、结构完整,并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。(每小题2分)‎ Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: 76 Here, we look at two examples A recent study by researcher Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability. 77 The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.‎ ‎78 Think about violinists in an orchestra (管弦乐团). When the violinists play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.‎ Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. 79 Why does this work? Schlaug isn't sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged (损坏的) parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.‎ Music improves concentration (注意力), memory, listening skills, and our overall language abilities. 80 Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp (敏锐的) as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable, it's also good for us in many other ways.‎ A. It can even help sick people get better.‎ B Music helps people solve some hearing problems.‎ C. Music improves certain language abilities in the brain.‎ D. The violinists develop their memories by playing the violin.‎ E Musicians hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds.‎ G. In his study two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.‎ 五、补全对话(5分)‎ 请阅读下面对话,根据对话内容从方框中选择恰当的句子填入空白处,使对话通顺、合理，意思完整,并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。(每空一句,每小题1分)‎ ‎(Sandra and Luke plan their trip to Cape Town.
