There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard work.‎ ‎ But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.‎ Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.‎ Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he had ‎ about life. “Work,” he answered. “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.‎ 24. Edison thought _______.‎ A. he could be happy if he was a genius B. genius plays the most important part in one’s success C. hard work could do better than genius D. genius could do better than hard work ‎25. Edison was _______.‎ A. very much interested in people’s secrets. B. interested in discovering the secrets of nature C. interested in changing people’s ideas D. uninterested in making people happier.‎ ‎26. In Edison’s opinion, _______.‎ A. thinking can supply people with enjoyment and pleasure as well as help B. people’s success lies mostly in genius C. hard work is the second important thing in making people successful D. there are few secrets for him to discover later ‎27. The last sentence in the passage most probably implies _____.‎ A. life is too short for Edison to invent more for human beings B. Edison made 100 inventions in his life C. Edison was able to live and work for 100 years D. people of his time were ready to give Edison another 100 years’ work C Most children have ever heard their parents yell “sit up straight!”or “don"t slouch (无精打采)!” when they eat dinner. Nowadays, it is also heard around another activity-video games. Ten-year-old Owen admits it takes him three to four hours a day to play games on his tablet computer. In addition, he plays for about two hours on the smart phone every day. As a result, he started suffering a severe pain in the neck around June or July. What's worse, the pain has spread to the hand and back gradually, which makes his mother Mezabin become concerned.‎ The doctors note the number of young children with the chronic pain(慢性痛) in their necks, arms and shoulders is on the increase sharply in recent years. They are not aging, they haven't had an accident, the blood reports are fine, their X-rays are fine. Facts have proved that the pain is from the poor posture while they are playing video games on smart phones or other electronic devices. 19-year-old student Nida feels pain in the finger which holds the weight of her smart phone most of the day. Nida almost uses her smart phone 24/7, which means 24 hours a day,seven days a week, or all the time.‎ Health experts predict there will be not only physical but psychological and emotional problems resulting from the overuse of electronic devices. They encourage people to often take breaks and exercise from using computers, smart phones or other devices. Stand up. Stretch the legs, back, shoulders and arms in all the possible directions. That is the most effective way and maybe the key to solving the problem completely. After all, the medication does not help sometimes.‎ 28. What is Mezabin worried about? A. Her son has no table manners ‎ B. Her son doesn't work hard at school C. Her son's physical problems get worse. ‎ D. Her son spends much money on video games.‎ ‎29. What do we know about the chronic pain? A. Adults don't have the problem.‎ A. It is caused by the wrong body position. C. Using a heavy smart phone will cause it. D. Children with it usually have other diseases.‎ ‎30. According to health experts, ________. A. people should stop using smart phones B. the best treatment for the chronic pain is exercising C.people must take medicine to cure the chronic pain D. the chronic pain has nothing to do with ones mental health 31. Where does the text probably come from? A. A health report ‎ B. B. A news story ‎ C.A research plan ‎ D. A business magazine D Birds enjoy a relatively slow rate of extinction(灭绝) but a new study suggests that rate might be severely underestimated(低估). Even worse, if human actions continue, bird extinction rates could skyrocket and 12 percent of the known bird species(物种) could be dying out by the end of the century.‎ ‎ Presently there are 10,000 known bird species and an estimated 130 of those have become extinct since the year 1500, setting the extinction rate at about one species every four years.‎ But according to Stuart Pimm of Duke University, this rate fails to take into account three key points: The continual identification of extinct bird species from fossil remains; numerous "missing" species not yet declared extinct; and the fact that present extinction rates were not calculated using the proper baseline date for when the species was first described.‎ Taking these points into consideration, the extinction rate is closer to one bird species per year, says Pimm, the leading author of the study. And the rate could be three times as high as that if not for recent bird preservation efforts.‎ In previous centuries, bird extinctions took place mainly on islands as Polynesian peoples expanded into the Pacific or Europeans took over the Americas, wiping out birds along the way.‎ In recent years, scientists are seeing an increased number of extinctions on continents, again because of human activities. Habitat destruction(栖息地毁灭), introduction of invasive species, and climate change combine to harm many bird species. Before human influence, the estimated rate of bird extinctions would have been only one species per hundred years, researchers estimate.‎ Bird extinction rates are slower than that of most animals, mainly because humans do more harm to other species and people take special efforts to protect birds. Still, if the present trends continue, the researchers estimate that the bird extinction rat e will continue to climb to as many as 10 species per year.‎ 32. The underlined word "skyrocket" in the first paragraph means.‎ A. fly high ‎ B. appear soon ‎ C. increase quickly ‎ D. change regularly ‎33. According to Pimm, the extinction rate of birds is _______.‎ A. one species per hundred years ‎ B. one species every year C. three species per year ‎ D. ten species every year ‎34. What can we infer from the fifth and sixth paragraphs?‎ A. Humans have started destroying bird habitat in recent years. B. Humans are doing more harm to animals than to birds. C. Humans have made no effort to protect birds. D. Humans are responsible for the bird extinctions.‎ ‎35. What might be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Humans' Fighting against Bird Extinction B. Humans' Responsibilities for Bird Protection C. Bird Extinction Rates Far Worse Than Realized D. Bird Extinction Occurring on Islands and Continents 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。‎ Some people get pleasure from picnics and tours.
