三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分，满分40分) A It was very cold and I had been watching a homeless man make himself comfortable in a “shelter”(住所) next to the river bank. He had been living there for over a month. During the period, I passed by and I never saw him with warm clothing or food. But that day, I knew what I wanted to do. I was young, living at home, and when I told my parents what I wanted to do they were alarmed. I could be putting myself at risk, taking a box to a homeless person in the night! But I knew that I would be safe. I went to the store, got an apple box and filled the box with some things he needed. Then I put a Christmas card on the top of the things. It said, “Even though we hardly know each other, I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas!” I put ten one-dollar bills inside as well. My father insisted he accompany (陪伴) me to the area as it was 10:00 pm on Christmas Eve. I said he could drive me but he had to stay in the car. He agreed. I took the box, which by now was heavy with all those gifts and walked towards his “shelter”. I called out to him, “Sir, I have a Christmas box for you!” He walked towards me and I was surprised by two of the most beautiful, gentle, and blue eyes. “Why are you doing this, boy?” he asked. “Because I want you to be happy,” I said. Tears came to his eyes and he thanked me. I watched him carry the box like it was filled with gold. It was the biggest act of kindness I had done and it forever made me want to do more! 36.

Travelers traveling to New Zealand need to consider the following things: Bookings Since most of the activities are done in a group like arranging hotels and meals, it is important that people travel as a group. They can enjoy special offers and discounts from the travel agencies, which will save them a lot of money. But individual travelers can’t enjoy those things. Travelers should also select their dates of starting and book their travels ahead of time. Seasons Travelers should also find out the season that New Zealand is now experiencing. This will help them carry the right clothing for the given season during their travels. Travelers traveling during summer should carry light clothes and their swimming suits if they are to enjoy the sunny beaches in New Zealand. But those traveling in winter should carry heavy clothing including hats and boots. The rental (租赁) Travel agencies have rental houses, bikes and motorcycles for tourists wishing to enjoy these services. For travelers wishing to get car rental, they must have driving licenses and must be allowed by the New Zealand government. The culture People traveling to the country are also encouraged to learn the culture of the people of New Zealand. This will enable them to be freely accepted into the country by the locals since they will be doing many things that they will consider acceptable. Learning the local language and the culture will help the tourist enjoy his New Zealand visit. People wishing to travel during holiday seasons will spend more money, so it is important to look at the holiday packages (包价游) and make the best decision. 41. From the text we can learn that .

New Zealand is the best destination C About six years ago my husband and a co-worker drove to see the sister company to the business my husband was running in Edmonton and then decided to drive to see the co-worker’s family. This co-worker is one of 17 children. These people live in an average house without TV. I admire anyone who has taken the time to raise their children in the old-fashioned way where the children entertain themselves and each other. This really touched my husband. Not only did these people still have the majority of their family at home but they had taken on two foster children (收养的孩子). Over the two days my husband felt worried about these two little girls. When my husband returned home, he said, “Andrea, I have something I need to talk to you about.” He told me about these little girls and how he really wanted to adopt them. At that time I had a 4-year-old, a 2-year-old and a 1-year-old child. I understood what he wanted to do but I had to take our children into consideration. His biggest concern was that these two little girls would be split up (分开). Time moved on and the years passed. These two little girls came into our thoughts often. Did we do the right thing or not? This question was asked too frequently. As the years passed this co-worker left the company and eventually, so did my husband. Just over a year ago my husband had a meeting with one of the sales managers for the sister company. My husband met with this gentleman over dinner one night. I am not sure how these little girls came into the conversation, but my husband must have been telling this gentleman about his trip. During that dinner I received a phone call from my husband. He wanted to introduce this gentleman to me over the phone. I talked for a few minutes. I was really puzzled. This gentleman and his wife had adopted the two girls we were looking to adopt years before. They were not able to have children and had so much love to give. The girls are where they belong. We get information frequently and have been sent pictures of what the girls look like now. There is a higher being who looks after us, you know! 46. Why do you think the author admires anyone who brings up kids in the old-fashioned way? A. Because she had three kids. B. Because she is warm-hearted. C. Because she wanted to help the family. D. Because kids in a large family can play happily together. 47. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the author’s husband felt . A. sympathetic to the family B. confident about the family C. uncomfortable with the family D. disappointed with the family 48. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. The author seemed a bit cruel. B. The big family lived a hard life. C. The author’s husband always obeyed her. D. The author’s husband was a wealthy man. 49. What can we learn from the passage? A. The two girls joined in the conversation. B. The gentleman had met the author before. C. The co-worker worked for the sister company. D. The author’s husband had planed to adopt the two girls. 50. After learning that the girls were where they belong, . A. the author wanted to see the two girls B. the author felt happy for the two girls C. the author began to believe in God since D. the author felt sorry for not adopting the two girls D DOHA (AFP) – The destruction of natural habitats in Europe is wiping out butterfly, beetle and dragonfly species across the region, the updated European “Red List” of endangered species showed Tuesday. Scientists examining Europe’s 435 butterfly species found that the populations of one in three species are falling and nine percent are already threatened with extinction. “Most butterflies at risk are in southern Europe,” said Annabelle Cuttelod, coordinator of the European Red List at the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). “Their main threat is habitat loss, most often caused by changes in agricultural practices, either through intensification (强化)or abandonment, or to climate change, forest fires and the expansion of tourism.” Logging has led to a decline in the population of some beetle species that depend on decaying wood. Known as saproxylic(食腐) beetles, they play an important role in ecosystems (生态) by recycling nutrients. Some 11 percent or 46 species of them are at risk of being lost from the region, while seven percent are threatened with extinction worldwide. “The main long-term threats to saproxylic beetles are habitat loss due to logging and the decline in the number of mature trees,” said the IUCN. For dragonflies, it is the overuse of freshwater resources that is causing these species to drop in numbers. Five percent of dragonfly species are threatened with global extinction, while some 11 percent are considered to be threatened within Europe. “Increasingly hot and dry summers combined with overuse of water for drinking and irrigation are causing the dragonflies’ wetland habitats to dry up,” said the IUCN. 51. What is the main cause of habitat loss of butterflies in Europe? A. Changes in agricultural practices. B. Climate change. C. Environmental pollution. D. The expansion of tourism. 52. The main threat facing the dragonflies is _______. A. cutting down trees B. the decreased number of mature trees C. the lack of fresh water resources D. the hot and dry weather 53. Saproxylic beetles can _______. A. improve ecosystems B. do harm to ecosystems C. be the food of other insects D. get nutrients from soil 54. How many species of beetles feeding on decaying wood are threatened with extinction worldwide? A. About 11. B. About 15. C. About 25. D. About 29. 55. We may learn from the passage that _______. A. 11 percent of the dragonflies in Europe won’t be found outside Europe B. dragonfly species are well protected in other parts of the world C. wildlife is generally well protected in Europe D. the disappearance of natural habitats is largely due to human activities 四、书面表达(共两节，满分45分) 第一节 阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题3分，满分15分) [1] Looking to improve your language skills, but you don’t have the time to go overseas to attend school?

第一篇：
Imagine a mass of floating waste is two times the size of the state of Texas. Texas has a land area of more than 678 000 square kilometers. So it might be difficult to imagine anything twice as big.
All together, this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch. It weighs about 3 500 000 tons. The waste includes bags，bottles and containers—plastic products of all kinds.
The eastern part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch is about l 600 kilometers west of California. The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan. The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert，with light winds and slow moving water currents. The water moves so slow that garbage from all over the world collects there.
In recent years，there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health. Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped in the floating waste，resulting in death or injury. Even more die from a lack of food or water after swallowing pieces of plastic. The trash can also make animals feel full，lessening their desire to eat or drink.
The floating garbage also can have harmful effects on people. There is an increased threat of infection of disease from polluted waste，and from eating fish that swallowed waste. Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.
Its existence first gained public attention in l997. That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event. Five years earlier，another oceanographer learned of the trash after a shipment of rubber duckies got lost at sea. Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.
In August，2009，a team from the University of California，San Diego became the
latest group to travel to it. They were shocked by the amount of waste they saw. They gathered hundreds of sea creatures and water samples to measure the garbage patch’s effect on ocean environment.

D. It is described as a kind of oceanic desert.
53.Why do people pay attention to the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?
A. Because it may prevent the flow of ocean water.
B. Because the polluted plastic articles will move up the food chain.
C. Because it may be from an island in the pacific.
D. Because ships may be trapped in the floating waste.
54.Which column can you find the passage on a newspaper?

第二篇：
Europeans should try to stay indoors if ash from Iceland's volcano starts settling, the World Health Organization warned Friday as small amounts fell in Iceland, Scotland and Norway.
WHO spokesman Daniel Epstein said the microscopic(微小的) ash is potentially dangerous for people when it starts to reach the Earth because inhaled(吸入) particles can enter the lungs and cause respiratory problems. And he also said Europeans who go outside might want to consider wearing a mask.
Other experts, however, weren't convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on peoples' health and said WHO's warnings were "hysterical." They said volcanic ash was much less dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution. Volcanic ash is made of fine particles of fragmented volcanic rock. It is light gray to black and can be as fine as talcum powder. During a volcanic eruption, the ash can be breathed deep into the lungs and cause irritation even in healthy people. But once it falls from a greater distance — like from the cloud currently hovering above Europe — its health effects are often minimal, experts say.
"Not all particles are created equal," said Ken Donaldson, a professor of respiratory toxicology at the University of Edinburgh, "In the great scheme of things, volcanic ash is not all that harmful." And he said most Europeans' exposure to volcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk.
Dr. Stephen Spiro, a professor of respiratory medicine and deputy chair of the British Lung Foundation, said the further the particles travel, the less dangerous they will be. "The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we haven't heard of any ill effects there," he said. Spiro said to wear masks or stay indoors to avoid volcanic ash was "over the top" and "a bit hysterical."
60. The text is mainly about .
A. the effect of volcanic ash
B. the health risk of volcanic ash
C. the disadvantages of volcanic ash
D. the opinions on health risk of volcanic ash
61. Which one is true according to Paragraph3?
A. The volcanic ash’s effects on Europeans were little.
B. The ash caused irritation even in healthy people.
C. Other experts thought WTO’S warnings were useful.
D. The volcanic ash was more dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution.
62. The underlined word “hysterical” in Paragraph4 most probably means .
A. amazing B. practical C. valuable D. overstated
63. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The volcanic ash wouldn’t be harmful to people.
B. All experts thought the volcanic ash did great harm to our health.
C. People close to the volcano would likely be at risk according to some experts.
D. Europeans should stay indoors because Iceland's volcano starts settling.
