It was a surprising gesture. I was wondering if they were doing fund-raising. I knelt and asked them where their parents were and how much a bottle of water cost. Then two adult women came up to me explaining what the children were doing. “We are teaching the children to give without anything in return. We are teaching people to accept without giving in return.”‎ Two mothers had bought bottled water and placed a sticker(小贴纸)on all bottles with five different quotes(引述):‎ ‎1.Smile at everyone. You’ll never know when someone may need it.‎ ‎2.If Plan A does not work, there are 25 more letters in the alphabets.‎ ‎3.Have a thirst for life. Every day is filled with possibilities.‎ ‎4.In your thirst for knowledge, be sure you don’t drown in all the information.‎ ‎5.Dig your well before you’re thirsty.‎ The bottle I have has quoted No. 5. A sudden change of attitude opened up among me, the mothers and the children. We are no longer strangers to each other. We were having such a great time chatting and I ended up helping them give away the rest of the bottled water.‎ One young lady was so thankful that she happily accepted the water and said it was the best thing that happened to her all day since she had a bad day at work. A man refused and walked away saying “No, thanks”.‎ ‎ A couple kept on bowing to us in gratitude. When is was all done, the children and I were giving each other high-five. It was so much fun.

They figure out that the area where summer temperatures can fall to -40℃, has at least 900,000 years of snowfalls, kept as neatly as the growth rings of a tree. And the ice and air caught in each layer (层) have begun to answer questions about the climates in the past. ‎ ‎ The results show that there have been eight ice ages in the past 740,000 years and eight warmer periods. And by comparing the pattern of global conditions today with those of the past, the researchers reported in Nature that the present warm period could last another 15,000 years. ‎ ‎ Research suggests that there is a very close connection between greenhouse gas levels and global average temperatures. It also shows that carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) levels are the highest for at least 440,000 years. ‎ ‎ "If people say to you: the greenhouse effect is a good thing because we would go into an ice age otherwise, our data say no, a new ice age is not hanging over our heads," said Eric Wolff from the British Antarctic Survey." Now we have eight examples of how the climate goes in and out of ice ages … and you can learn what the rules are that go into the climate models that tell us about the future." ‎ ‎ Scientists found that whenever temperatures rose in the frozen record, so did carbon dioxide level. " In 440,000 years we have never seen greenhouse gas get as thick as it is today," said Dr Wolff.‎ ‎28. In drilling through the ice in Antarctica, scientists have found that _____ .‎ A. the lowest temperature there is -40℃ B. snowfalls are kept in certain patterns(模式)‎ C. the ice has existed for 15,000 years D. the depth of ice is 3,000 meters ‎29. The information of the global climate conditions in the past can be obtained through _____ .‎ A. separating carbon dioxide from the air B. examining the growth rings of trees ‎ C. comparing temperatures in different areas D. studying the ice and air caught in each layer ‎30. We can infer from Eric Wolff's words that _____ .‎ A. there is something wrong with the data B. greenhouse effect is always a bad thing ‎ C. a new ice age will not come in the near future D. greenhouse gas will get thick in the future ‎31. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Research over the Antarctic area. B. Warm period to last about 15,000 years. ‎ C. Report on the eight ice ages in the past. D. Hollywood movies and the global climate.‎ D How long has 3-D technology been around? Most of us might think of crowds of teenagers in a 1950’s movie house watching Bwana Devil in 3-D. But 3-D technology made its first appearance on the scene in 1838 with the first stereoscope(体视镜). And the first actual 3-D movie was a 1903 film called Le Ariveed’un Train.‎ Although it has such a long history, the technology has still remained based on one simple principle-----to make 3-D effects you must find a way to project two slightly different pictures to each eye. Modern 3-D technology works by rapidly flickering(闪动) two versions of the movie and projecting them onto each eye. The brain does the rest of the work, combining the two pictures together into one and giving the show the appearance of depth, the third dimension.‎ But does this exposure, especially long exposures, cause harm to the child’s developing brain and visual system? Unfortunately, long-term studies on new flicker digital 3-D technology and children aren’t yet available. We do not know if regular or daily 3-D viewing over years affects the developing visual system, although older 3-D methods basically do the same thing and are not considered harmful.‎ The question of possible harm in modern 3-D use in TV is really based on two facts: the amount of time children will now be watching 3-D TV each day and the sensitivity some children show in reaction to 3-D viewing. It is difficult to make actual lab studies of longer term 3-D viewing in children because of the possible harm of the experiment. Researchers will have to wait until 3-D TV technology is already in the marketplace for a number of years, then check heavy 3-D TV watchers and compare them with non-watchers.‎ With a 3-D television technology in the home, we will soon be able to answer the question of whether or not longer and more frequent periods of 3-D exposure cause more changes in the visual system. We may find that the bigger problem is the introduction of a new technology that leads to even more time spent on TV rather than playing outdoors.‎ ‎32.According to the text, 3-D technology ______‎ A. was refused by people when it first appeared. B. will soon change the way we watch TV.‎ C. does no good to our visual system. D. has a history of nearly 200 years.‎ ‎33.Paragraph 2 is mainly about________‎ A. the history of 3-D technology. B. why 3-D movies are popular C. how 3-D technology works. D. the influence of 3-D technology.‎ ‎34.What’s the method suggested in paragraph 4?‎ A. To wait and see B. To carry out lab studies C. To stop making 3-D movies D. To improve 3-D technology ‎35.The author’s purpose in writing the text is to _______‎ A. ask children not to watch 3-D movies B. discuss if 3-D viewing is harmful to children.‎ C. introduce the advantages of 3-D technology.‎ D. predict the development of 3-D technology.‎ 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。‎ How to use speed reading to go through newspapers or magazines? 36 You will not only save time, but also your focus will increase and you will have fun reading even the uninteresting reports.‎ ‎ 37 This plays to the advantage of the tired reader who wants to stay current but has very little time to read. Often all you need to understand a news piece is the first paragraph. Here the reporter will tell you what’s happening, who it’s happening to and where it’s happening.‎ Sometimes you don’t even need to read the entire paragraph because the first sentence or the first couple of sentences give you all the information. If you still have more time you can move on to step two. 38 Read the last paragraph. Some news pieces are follow-ups of events that were earlier reported. In such a situation, the first paragraph may not give you all the information you need. 39 It’s usually in the last paragraph that the user is given the background information that leads to the story.‎ Read the “quotes” after you’ve read the first and last paragraphs and you still feel you need more information or have more time to play with, you can come into middle of the piece by reading the direct speech of the sources of the news item. In all forms of writing where quotations are used, the writer leads the reader into the quotes and then leads the reader out. This takes too much space and therefore, robs the reader out of some precious time.‎ ‎ 40 ‎ A. Read the first paragraph.‎ B. But the last paragraph will do the job.‎ C. The first paragraph may be not important at all.‎ D. Otherwise, you can stop reading.‎ E. Here are three techniques you can use.‎ F. So glide directly to the quotation marks and read what’s within them.‎ G. If you follow these steps, it’s possible to get about 80 percent of a news piece.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节,满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ One day, while I was walking to work, I decided to bring some flowers that I had picked from my garden that morning.

I first hear of cloning animals from a single cell when I went to a lecture about Dolly the sheep. Dolly was cloning in 1996, in the Britain. At the time, I thought that the whole concept of cloning was not moral. If we toy at life, we might create problems. It seems that I was correct to have doubts about push ahead with cloning. After all, even though Dolly looked the same as a normal sheep, she was not health and died young, and no one knows the exactly reason for this. The idea behind cloning sounds good, so there are many real-life problem with it.
