It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.‎ The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.‎ Bradford said that large modem theatres in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that ‎ the theater’s location was also a reason. “This used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”‎ Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.‎ The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time.

It will be repaired.‎ B. It will be turned into a museum.‎ C. It will be knocked down.‎ D. It will be sold to the city government.‎ ‎32. What can we infer about the audience?‎ A. They are disappointed with Bradford.‎ B. They are sad to pan with the old theater.‎ C. They are supportive of the city officials.‎ D. They are eager to have a shopping center.‎ D.‎ When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists. Jack Schultz and Ian ‎ Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds. VOCs for short.‎ Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It’s a plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.‎ Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.‎ In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.‎ Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.‎ Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.‎ ‎33. What does a plant do when it is under attack?‎ A. It sends out certain chemicals.‎ B. It makes noises.‎ C. It stands quietly.‎ D. It gets help from other plants.‎ ‎34. Scientists find from their studies that plants can .‎ A. predict natural disasters.‎ B. help their neighbors when necessary.‎ C. talk to one another intentionally.‎ D. protect themselves against insects.‎ ‎35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A .The word is changing faster than ever.‎ B. The world is more complex than it seems.‎ C. People have stronger senses than before.‎ D. People in Darwin’s time were more imaginative.‎ 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。‎ Choosing to Study Overseas Every year, thousands of students choose to study in another country for a semester, the summer, or a year. Studying overseas can be an exciting experience for people.‎ ‎ 36 ‎ Living in another country can help you to learn a language, and about another culture. You will see the world in a new way, and lean, more about yourself. 37 Many companies today want employees who speak a second language, or have experienced living or working in another country.‎ ‎ 38 ‎ Once you decide to study overseas, you have to make some choices. To choose the right country or school, ask yourself: Where do I want to go and why? How much do I want to pay? How long do I want to study overseas?

Spring is the most beautiful season in a year. The weather gets warmer, and the days get longer. Everything begins to grow. Trees turn green. At the beginning, they are light green. Each leaf seems to be cleaned by spring wind. Many kinds of flowers start lo come out. They are colorful, red, yellow, orange and white. They give the earth a pretty coal. The fields and meadows are covered with fresh green grass. Rivers pass through the coun-tries and the cities quietly. Look! The swallows arc coming back again. They are flying to the south in spring, because the weather is warmer in the south. At the same time, bears wake up from their long winter sleep. Cats begin mewing. Dogs begin barking. The forests are filled with the songs of birds. All the sounds on the earth are like music. Later, most of the animals will get married and have babies. New lives tell us that: this year is better than ever before.‎
