All life supported by the oceans will be affected with this shock to their ecosystem. Coral are some of the most vulnerable marine animals and we are already watching whole reefs disappear. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is no exception and will continue to shrink as the temperatures rise! These reefs are some of the best in the world for diving, but they will soon disappear!‎ Venice---Sprawling across(横跨)hundreds of small islands in Northeast Italy, Venice is at ‎ extreme risk of sinking into the Adriatic Sea. Rising sea levels are in fact a serious threat to many coastal cities located at sea level. Lucky for us, however, Venice is developing a series of sea walls to protect the city in times of high tide.‎ Glacier(冰川)National Park---Glacier National Park was once covered by over 150 glaciers, but by 2005 it only had about 27! Located in Montana, Canada, this park is over a million acres and has a huge plant and wildlife population. As temperatures rise, the glaciers and ice melt, which will upset the ecosystems sustaining over a thousand plant species and hundreds of animals.‎ The Amazon---The cause behind the disappearance of these fantastic places ultimately comes down to humans. Our expansion usually requires cutting down forests for land, fuel and materials, but rarely considers the consequences. These forests are sources of food and medicine for just about everyone on the planet!‎ What will happen if we lose these valuable places and beautiful destinations?!‎ ‎21. According to the text, what is causing coral’s death?‎ ‎ A. Rising sea levels ‎ B. Humans’ diving activities ‎ C. Rising sea temperatures ‎ D. The shrinkage(缩小)of their habitats ‎22. What can we infer from the part of “Venice”?‎ ‎ A. Venice is the only coastal city of Italy ‎ B. Many places are in the risk of sinking below the sea level ‎ C. Venice will never sink because of the protection of sea walls ‎ D. Italy consists of hundreds of small islands in the Adriatic Sea ‎23. What can we learn about Glacier National Park from the text?‎ ‎ A. It covers a large area in Montana ‎ B. It is covered by over 150 glaciers ‎ C. Plant species and animals in it have died out ‎ D. It doesn’t support any living thing for its cold ‎24. Which site’s shrinking reason differs from the other sites?‎ A. The Great Barrier Reef B. Venice ‎ C. Glacier National Park D. The Amazon B Many a young person tells me that he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write, “I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”‎ The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no prospects at all: what I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and left like a genuine writer.‎ After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed ‎ about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keep putting my dream to the test---even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.‎ ‎25. The passage is meant to ______.‎ A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience B. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer ‎ C. show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame D. encourage young people to pursue a writing career ‎26. “…people who die wondering, what if?” (Para.3) refers to “those ________”.‎ A. who think too much of the dark side of life B. who regret giving up their career halfway C. who think a lot without making a decision D. who are full of imagination even upon death ‎27. “shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _______.‎ A. the wonderland one often dreams about【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ B. the bright future that one is looking forward to 【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ C. the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reached D. a world that exists only in one’s imagination C A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. ‎ ‎ A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value. ‎ For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.‎ ‎28. A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its ______.‎ ‎ A. wide coverage ‎ B. long-lasting value ‎ C. speed in reporting news ‎ D. variety of articles ‎29. According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the “same” newspaper is that ______.‎ ‎ A. people scan for the news they are interested in ‎ B. different people prefer different newspapers ‎ C. people are rarely interested in the same kind of news ‎ D. people have different views about what a good newspaper is ‎30. It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers______.‎ ‎ A. apply reading techniques skillfully ‎ B. jump from one newspaper to another ‎ C. appreciate the variety of a newspaper ‎ D. usually read a newspaper selectively ‎31. The best title for this passage would be “______”.‎ ‎ A. The importance of Newspaper Topicality ‎ B. The Characteristics of a Good Newspaper ‎ C. The Variety of a Good Newspaper ‎ D. Some Suggestions on How to Read a Newspaper D Amtrak (美国铁路客运公司)was experiencing a downswing in ridership (客运量)along the lines comprising its rail system. Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham, were the long-distance western routes where ridership had been declining significantly. At one time, trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west. Trains were fast, very luxurious, and quite convenient compared to other forms of transportation existing at the time. However, times change and the automobile became America’s standard of convenience. Also, air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances. Therefore, the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other aspects of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west. Two portions of the total market were targeted:1)anxious fliers—those concerned with safety, relaxation, and cleanliness and 2)travel-lovers—those viewing themselves as relaxed, casual, and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation. The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom, escape, relaxation, and enjoyment of the great western outdoors. It stressed experiences gained by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures. Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful scenery that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder, etc.). These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs involving nature and America in order to most effectively reach target audiences. Results were impressive. The Empire Builder, which was focused on in one ad, enjoyed a 15 percent increase in profits on its Chicago to Seattle route.‎ ‎32. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage? ‎ ‎ A. To show the inability of trains to compete with planes with respect to speed and ‎ convenience.‎ ‎ B. To stress the influence of the automobile on America’s standard of convenience.‎ ‎ C. To emphasize the function of travel agencies in market promotion.‎ ‎ D. To illustrate the important role of persuasive communication in changing consumer attitudes.‎ ‎33. It can be inferred from the passage that the drop in Amtrak ridership was due to the fact that ‎ ______.‎ ‎ A. trains were not suitable for short distance passenger transportation ‎ B. trains were not the fastest and most convenient form of transportation ‎ C. trains were not as fast and convenient as they used to be ‎ D. trains could not compete with planes in terms of luxury and convenience ‎34. To encourage consumers to travel by train, DDB Needham emphasized ______.‎ ‎ A. the freedom and convenience provided on trains ‎ B. the practical aspects of train travel ‎ C. the adventurous aspects of train trips ‎ D. the safety and cleanliness of train trips ‎35. The train ads were placed among family-oriented TV programs involving nature and America because ______.‎ ‎ A. they could focus on meaningful travel experiences ‎ B. they could increase the effectiveness of the TV programs ‎ C. their profits could be increased by some 15 percent ‎ D. most travel-lovers and nervous fliers were believed to be among the audiences 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Every living thing has genes. Genes carry information. 36 They make sure that humans give birth to humans and cows give birth to cows. However, genetic engineers take genes from one species— for example, a snake, and transfer them to another — for example, corn. 37 Such new life forms have been described, by some scientists as a real-life Frankenstein.‎ Genetic engineers put duck genes into chicken to make the chickens bigger. They put hormones(激素) into cows to make them produce more milk. They put genes from flowers into beans and from fish into tomatoes. 38 It just makes them easier and faster for the farmer to grow.‎ The effects of genetic engineering on the natural world may be disastrous. The engineers may create strange life beings or monsters that we cannot control. 39 They’ll have to find one, fight for one, or kill for one. It may be your land they fight for, or you that they kill. Moreover, the effects of these experiments can often be cruel. In America, pigs were given human genes to make them bigger and less fatty. The experiment failed. The pigs became very ill and began to lose their eyesight.‎ We would all like a better, healthier and longer life, and genetic engineering might give us this. On the other hand, it may be a dangerous experiment with nature. In the story of Frankenstein, the doctor created such a terrible and dangerous monster that he had to destroy it. 40 ‎ A. The information tells us what to do or what not to do.‎ B. We must make sure that this tale remains a story —— and no more than that.‎ C. This doesn’t make them cheaper, tastier, or healthier.‎ D. The new life forms have no natural habitat or home.‎ E. Then they feed the tomatoes to the fish.‎ F. In this way, a new life form is created.‎ G. They are passed on from generation to generation.‎ 第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage.
