His love for the ocean grew after he made the 1989 undersea adventure film The Abyss and the 1997 blockbuster Titanic, one of the most successful movies of all time. Following that big success, James Cameron decided to put his film career on hold to become an explorer.‎ In 2012, James Cameron made a journey to the deepest spot in the Mariana Trench, known as Challenger Deep. And now the great journey has been made into a documentary film, named James Cameron’s Deep-sea Challenger 3D.‎ In James Cameron’s fantasy films, such as Avatar and The Abyss, the unexplored areas are decorated in colors and full of danger. But on his dive into Challenger Deep, the reality proved far different: white, deserted and dull.‎ ‎“I felt like I had gone to another planet,” Cameron said after returning from the cold and dark place in the Western Pacific Ocean, nearly 7 miles below the surface. “I really have a sense of being separated and realize how tiny I am down in this big, black and unexplored place.”‎ Cameron captured(获取) the moon-like landscape of the deep sea and documented(记录) the sea creatures he observed in the ocean.‎ James Cameron’s Deep-sea Challenger 3D tells the story of Cameron’s journey. It is a film about determination, danger and the ocean’s greatest depths. The movie shows a unique insight into Cameron’s world when he makes his dream reality and makes history by becoming the first person to travel alone to the deepest point on the planet. ‎ It’s an exciting film and inspiring reminder that our beautiful planet still has a lot to explore.‎ ‎21．When did James Cameron really started exploring the sea?‎ ‎ A. When he was in his childhood. B. After his films The Abyss and Titanic.‎ ‎ C. Before he achieved great success in movies. D. After he made the 1989 undersea adventure.‎ ‎22．What does the underlined phrase probably mean?‎ ‎ A. Putting his film career away for the moment. B. Firmly holding on to his film career.‎ ‎ C. Giving up his film career forever. D. Never taking up his film career again.‎ ‎23．James Cameron’s Deep-sea Challenger 3D is _____________‎ ‎ A. a film about scientists’ exploration of the deep ocean.‎ ‎ B. a story about the colorful deep ocean and creatures.‎ ‎ C. a 3D film about Cameron’s own experience to the deep ocean.‎ ‎ D. a film that stars some famous actors and actresses.‎ ‎24．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?‎ ‎ A. The great dream of an under sea film actor B. A film star exploring deep sea ‎ C. The first person to make films about the deep sea D. Cameron and his documentary film B As parents we all tell our children little white lies to make life easier. Some of my regular clever tricks are that nursery has called to see where Minnie is, when we are running late and she’s refusing to get dressed. That a man comes to lock up the park when she won’t get off the wings. And, in extreme circumstances when Minnie won’t stop screaming, that our neighbors, John and Roz, may call the police because of the noise.‎ But I am beginning to regret my story about the “pluggle monster”. I’ve known about him ever since I went to stay at my schoolmate Alison’s house years ago, and her younger brother wouldn’t get out of the bath. The mere mention of the pluggle monster had him leaping out like an obedient lamb. All you have to do, you see, is pull out the plug and he starts gurgling immediately----he sounds pretty real. Funnily enough, Alin’s brother is now a pop star but I don’t doubt he’ll thank me for revealing his name, so I will be discreet(慎重)！‎ Anyway, the pluggle monster has come to my rescue many times when Minnie has refused to take leave of the tub. But, now that her imagination is blooming, she seems to have become addicted to him. Similarly, the “Sandman”（童话中能使儿童入睡的睡魔） who I mentioned in a passing comment a few weeks ago when she had some sleep in her eyes, and bed bugs (from the seemingly harmless phrases, “Good night and don’t let the bed bugs bite!”)‎ I’ve now told her that all of these things are pretend, just stories, but she still likes to talk about them. And now I don’t think she believes me that they are not real. What a pickle!‎ ‎25. When Minnie was going to be late for nursery and didn’t want to get up in the morning, the author would say____________________‎ ‎ A. the bug would bite. B. the Sandman was coming.‎ ‎ C. the nursery had made a phone call. D. the neighbor would call the police.‎ ‎26. Many parents tell white lies to their children when children __________‎ ‎ A. won’t do as required. B. do exactly what they are told.‎ ‎ C. want to do something important D. want to hear an interesting story.‎ ‎27. What is the writer’s attitude toward the white lies she told?‎ ‎ A. Very positive. B. A bit regretful. C. Kind of indifferent. D. Totally negative.‎ C Although it is chilly outside in winter, we have heating systems to keep us warm indoors in most parts of North China, and in South China, they at least have air conditioners or electric radiators. But how did ancient people in China keep warm without these modern appliances?‎ During the Qin (221-206 BC) and Han (206 BC-220) dynasties, temperature adjustable rooms emerged in royal families.It is said that the “temperature adjustable hall” was built with pepper mash daubed on the wall, embroidery tapestries hung on the wall and a thick blanket paved on the ground. Windshield screens and wild goose feather-made curtains were also used to keep cool air outside.‎ During the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1912）dynasties, a ground heating system was used indoors, which was built by concreting circular flue underground. The charcoal fire smoke would flow through channels to the whole room and raise the temperature indoors. ‎ The ground heating system wasn’t invented by Ming and Qing dynasty people. It emerged as early as Wei and Jin dynasties (AD 220-420). The historical record shows that the northeast part of China had used fire pits to keep warm during that time, which functioned similarly as a ground heating.‎ Censer(香炉) was often used for heat during ancient times, which was made of two parts: the bottom was a basin and the top was a hollow cover made with flower patterns. Putting coal inside, censers were used as warmers and made into different sizes for hands and feet. ‎ Song Dynasty poet Su Shi had mentioned a kind of cloth resembling a wind coat similar to today’s coats in his poem. With the weather getting colder, silk floss or cotton wool was put inside clothes to make them warmer but was still light.‎ ‎ Ancient people were smart in adapting to the environment and had solutions for the chilly winter. In addition to all their equipment, they also drank wine to keep warm, just like modern people in North China.‎ ‎28. Why things like heating systems and air conditioners are mentioned in the first paragraph?‎ ‎ A. To attract readers’ attention. B. To make the passage interesting ‎ C. To introduce the topic to talk about. D. To tell readers how people keep cool.‎ ‎29. Which of the following is CORRECT according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. People invented ground heating system in Ming and Qing dynasties.‎ ‎ B. Ancient people also drank wine to keep warm like modern people in the South.‎ ‎ C. Song Dynasty poet Su Shi ever mentioned censers as a way of keeping warm.‎ ‎ D. Ancient people were clever enough to find ways to fight cold weather.‎ ‎30. This passage is mainly about_________________‎ ‎ A. how ancient people in the world keep warm in winter.‎ ‎ B. different ways people used to deal with cold in ancient China.‎ ‎ C. how the ground heating system in the Ming and Qing dynasties worked.‎ ‎ D. how people put materials like silk floss and cotton wool to keep warm.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 阅读以下短文，选择合适的选项填入空格处，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有两项是多余选项。‎ ‎ 31 .

This action affects the environment as a whole. For example，a lot of carbon dioxide in the air comes from burning the rain forests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, when people cut down trees, generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly, cutting large sections of rain forests may provide a good supply of wood right now, but in the long run it actually reduces the world’ s wood supply.‎ 59.

Although he was touched by her undying love for him and wanted so much to accept her again, he remembered he rejected because she was not the one he wanted.
