Take to the water on one of three magnificent daily harbour cruises(游船).You can also travel free on regular Sydney Buses, Sydney Ferries or CityRail services (limited area), so you can go to every corner of this beautiful city.‎ Imagine browsing at Darling Harbour, sampling the famous seafood at Watsons Bay or enjoying the city lights on an evening ferry cruise. The possibilities and plans are endless with a SydneyPass. Wherever you decide to go, remember that bookings are not required on any of our services so tickets are treated on a first in, first seated basis.‎ SydneyPasses are available for3, 5 or 7 days for use over a 7-calendar-day period.

D. $420.‎ B Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York – he in computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us,” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life’s purpose.‎ Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton’s foundation that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer’s hometown of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire,” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk “as a reminder”.‎ Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imaginationlibrary.com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.‎ The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books – reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members – included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.‎ Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than grateful: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of.”‎ The Richters spend about ＄‎400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”‎ ‎24. What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?‎ A. Give out brochures. B. Do something similar.‎ C. Write books for children D. Retire from being a teacher.‎ ‎25.According to the text, Dollly Parton is .‎ A. a well-known surgeon B. a mother of a four-year-old C. a singer born in Tennessee D. a best-selling ​author ‎26.Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?‎ A. To avoid signing up online.‎ B. To meet Dollywood board members.‎ C. To make sure the books were the newest.‎ D. To see if the books were of good quality.‎ ‎27. What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?‎ A. He considers his efforts worthwhile.‎ B. He wonders why some people are so busy.‎ C. He tries to save those waiting to die.‎ D. He needs more money to help the children.‎ C As an Asian country, Singapore has a reputation for being highly westernized, with English among the country’s four official languages, but a couple of signs found on local buses that have recently become a hit online may say otherwise.‎ Quite different from English we know, the sign read, for example, “Here cannot go in” instead of “No entry”, and Here can charge phone instead of Charge phone here. This language that resembles English is called Singaporean English or Singlish.‎ The New York Times calls Singlish “patchwork” because Singapore consists of migrants from several countries including China, India and Malaysia,‎ ‎ and they all speak their own versions of “English”.‎ ‎“Everyone who speaks it shapes it,” wrote the newspaper.‎ For example, in Singlish, you can easily recognize influences from Chinese, including vocabulary such as “Mee Siam” and “da bao”. Sentence structures like “toilet where” instead of “where’s the toilet” also come from Chinese.‎ Interesting and diverse as it may seem, the trend for Singlish is worrying Singapore’s government. It is concerned that the dialect is lowering the country’s English standard and may affect its relationship with visitors.It even started the Speak Good English Movement.‎ Unfortunately, the problem was not solved. Instead, Singlish has boomed, especially among young people who think of it as a sign of being cool and a way of identifying themselves as Singaporean.‎ But this does not mean that standard English is being abandoned by young people. In fact, they are much more capable than the government gives credit--they can speak both.‎ ‎“We are a nation good at code switching-- we know that the way we speak to friends or drivers must be different from how act at work or school,” wrote Cheryl, a Singaporean author, in Time magazine, “To actively urge us to give up a language that speaks to the very heart of who we are, which so beautifully represents the melting pot of Chinese, Indians, Malaysians and Eurasians that we are, is shortsighted, surely.”‎ ‎28 Why does Singapore have many different versions of English?‎ A It is affected by official languages. B It is highly westernized.‎ C It is influenced by Chinese. D It is made up of migrants.‎ ‎29 What is the purpose of starting the Speak Good English Movement?‎ A To stop the new trend. B To better the relationship.‎ C To keep the English standard. D To give the government credit.‎ ‎30. What do the young people think of Singlish?‎ A It’s interesting. B It’s their identity. ‎ C It’s a sign of status. D It’s a way of code-switching.‎ ‎31. What can we learn from what Cheryl said?‎ A Different people speak different styles of Singlish B Singlish is a more beautiful language than others.‎ C People speaks Singlish only to friends and drivers.‎ D People can use Singlish to express themselves well.‎ D Scientists have solved the mystery of why the overwhelming majority of mammoth fossils are male.‎ Much like wild elephants today, young male Ice Age mammoths probably travelled around alone and more often got themselves into risky situations where they were swept into rivers, or fell through ice or into mud, lakes or sinkholes that preserved their bones for thousands of years, scientists say.‎ Females, on the other hand, travelled in groups led by an older matriarch who knew the landscape and directed her group away from danger.‎ ‎"Without the benefit of living in a herd led by an experienced female, male mammoths had a much higher risk of dying in natural traps such as mud holes, rock cracks and lakes, "said co-author Love Dalen of the Swedish Museum of Natural History in a report published on Thursday in the journal Current Biology.‎ The study used genetic data to determine the sex of 98 woolly mammoth fossils in Siberia Researchers found that 69% of the samples were male, a heavily unbalanced sex ratio, assuming that the sexes were fairly even at birth.‎ ‎"We were very surprised because there was no reason to expect a sex bias in the fossil record," said ‎ first author Patricia Pecnerova, also of the Swedish Museum of Natural History. ‎ Therefore, researchers believe that something about the way they lived influenced the way they died.‎ Most bones, tusks, and teeth from mammoths and other Ice Age animals haven't survived," explained Dalen.‎ ‎"It is highly likely that the remains that are found in Siberia these days have been preserved because they have been buried, and thus protected from weathering."‎ These giant, tusked plant eaters disappeared about 4,000 years ago. While there is no scientific agreement about the causes of their disappearance from the planet, most believe that climate change, excessive hunting by humans and the spread of other animals into mammoth feeding grounds were influential factors.‎ ‎32. The underlined word "matriarch" in paragraph 3 means _______.‎ A. female leader B. figure head ‎ C. experienced animal D. mature mammoth ‎33. Why do the majority of mammoth fossils come from male animals?‎ A. Scientists find it easier to study male fossilised bones.‎ B. There were more male mammoths in comparison to females C Male mammoths were better able to adapt to the changing circumstances.‎ D. Male mammoths more frequently died in places where fossils could form.‎ ‎34. Which of the following is suggested as a reason for mammoths dying out?‎ A. The increasing competition for food.‎ B. The cooling of the earth's temperature.‎ C. The disappearance of male mammoths.‎ D The risky behaviour of younger mammoths.‎ ‎35. What is the type of the passage?‎ A. An academic essay. B. A newspaper article.‎ C. A historical description. D. A science fiction story.‎ 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 Laughing at Yourself Makes You Attractive Have you ever embarrassed yourself in public and got laughed at for it? 36 And it's okay-- we should even have a laugh about them.‎ ‎●Laughing at yourself means accepting who you really are. You may feel bad about yourself because of past misfortune. However, it's normal to be imperfect. What's important is that you should be honest with yourself about who you are. 37 You won’t be able to laugh at yourself without self-acceptance.‎ ‎●Laughing at yourself helps increase your confidence.

People will like it, because it shows that you have the courage to do so and you're being real about your imperfections.‎ Just remember that humans all make mistakes. So instead of blaming yourself, try to think of your mistakes, in a positive way and accept yourself just as you are. 40 ‎ A. Laughing at yourself makes you popular.‎ B.
