Canada is said to be one of the Earth's most beautiful countries. Even though

Canada is pretty on the outside, it has an ugly truth hidden behind its beauty. Canada

has many environmental problems that can greatly affect the people and the wildlife

of the region.

Canada has many natural resources. But if not treated properly, they'll be

destroyed or used up. This is happening to the Great Lakes. Shared by Canada and

the US, the Great lakes are used for fishing and producing electricity. In the 1970s,

the Great Lakes were used as a waste dumping （倾倒）place for factories. To put

a stop to the illegal dumping, the two countries both signed the Great Lakes Water

Quality Agreement, which makes sure no animals or people are harmed by the polluted and dangerous water and also reduces the amount of human waste that is dumped in that area.

Almost 2 million Canadian citizens make their living by mining. However , mining can destroy an area’s environment. The rock and soil from mining are just dumped in any place that is available. This can lead to an increase in sulfur dioxide （二氧化硫）, causing acid rain and killing plants and animals.

Another natural resource is the wood which is used for many different types of paper. But the resource is being overused. The country is losing the benefits of the forest, such as oxygen, and animals are losing their foods or homes. Clear-cutting （清场伐木）has left many places barren. The loss of animal habitat is also very serious.

All countries should learn from Canada's mistakes and take some measures to help improve the environment.

24. What's the ugly truth in Canada?

A. It has many environmental problems.

B. Nearly all resources are being used up.

C. Waste can be seen everywhere

D. Many plants and animals are dying out.

25. Why was the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement signed?

A. To produce more electricity.

B. To introduce more fish in the lakes.

C. To stop factories dumping waste into the area.

D. To prevent animals from being killed.

26. What does the underlined word “barren” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?

A. Full of water.

B. Lacking warmth.

C. Without any dirt.

D. No trees on Land

27. What's the author’s purpose of writing this text?

A. To show what has happened to the Great Lakes.

B. To tell us some of natural resources of Canada,

C. To call on people to protect the environment.

D. To tell us Canada is more beautiful than we thought

Mr. Lee speaks six languages and his company, Flitto now has more than five million users around the world, and enjoys revenues（收益）of about $2.1 million a year.

Unlike most professional translation companies, it doesn't directly employ translators. Instead, Flitto invites members of the public who knows more than one language to offer their services via

its website and mobile phone app. Today it has one million translators in 170 countries, who offer translations between 17 different languages.

Due to his father's job with an international company, Mr. Lee spent most of his childhood living overseas. he was born in Kuwait, where he spent his first four years, before the family then moved to the UK. After three years in the UK, the family

relocated again, this time to the US, before moving to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia 24 months later. Educated in international schools, he was quick to pick up an English, French and Arabic, the first three languages. Mr. Lee added to his native Korean. After seven years in Saudi Arabia, Mr. Lee’s family moved back to South Korea where he finished high school, and then went to the country’s famous Korea university.

It was at college that friends of his started to ask him to help them translate their homework into English, which was required as part of their courses. “So friends would say to me, ‘Simon, if you translate this homework into English, I'm going to buy you dinner,’” he says.

“And more and more friends were asking me to do that, so I didn't have enough time. ”Realizing the business potential of translation services, Mr. Lee started getting other multilingual friends to help out, and thus his idea for setting up

a firm was born.

28. What do most professional translation firms generally do?

A. They ask foreign language teachers for help.

B. They hire someone to do translation technically.

C. They find native speakers of the target language.

D. They operate with other translation institutions.

29. From the third paragraph, we may learn that Mr. Lee ________

A. benefited a lot from his overseas experience.

B. had a hard life and felt lonely when young.

C. learned a lot of languages from his parents.

D. lived in the US longer than in the UK

30. How does Mr. Lee come up with the idea of founding a company?

A. It is simply out of his interest in translation.

B. It is inspired by helping friends with translation.

C. It occurs to him after his research into the market.

D. It is learned from his father who owns a global firm.

31. Which of the following words can best describe Mr. Lee?

A. Devoted and considerate.

B. Determined and intelligent.

C. Persistent and optimistic.

D. Helpful and creative.

D

With more and more people having a longer life in the world, people are eager to know what to do and what not to do.

It is well known that women live longer on average than men—and some researchers claim this is because they are better at visiting their doctor and voicing any concerns about their health, rather than sticking their heads in the sand.

Not smoking, not being overweight and taking sufficient exercise keep your heart and blood vessels healthy for longer— and all that is good for your brain, too.

One popular theory about aging concerns the damage caused to the tissues in our bodies, by “free radicals（自由基）”. Our immune system makes these free radicals ineffective using antioxidant （抗氧化剂） nutrients such as vitamins A and C, and the theory is that a diet high in such “antioxidant” will help you hold back the years. In fact, though there is no doubt among scientists that free radicals harm

the body, there is no hard proof that aging is caused simply by a lack of sufficient antioxidant in our bodies or our food..

Another theory growing in popularity holds that we can stay alive longer by eating less, for an experiment concluded mice live longer when fed 30 percent fewer calories. Though the beneficial effect has since been found in other species, including fruit flies, what we really want to know is how this applies to humans. The answer may be found in long- term experiments in the U.S. using rhesus monkeys, which are closely related to us in evolutionary terms. However, though the aging process is slower in those animals, monkeys on the calorie restriction group do not appear to live longer.

32. Which of the following would the author agree with?

A. Say your worries aloud if you have any.

B. Go on a diet.

C. Take in sufficient antioxidant.

D. The more physical exercise the better

33. What do we know about free radicals?

A. They can produce vitamin A and C.

B. They have a negative effect on humans.

C. They account for a lack of antioxidants.

D. They help humans hold back the years.

34. It can be concluded from the last paragraph that________

A. fruit flies are closest to human in genes.

B. the author is not a little in favor of eating less.

C. the less rhesus monkey eats, the longer it will live

D. calorie restriction doesn't necessarily work out well.

35. What does this passage mainly talk about?

A. Facts about losing weight.

B. Ways to keep healthy.

C. How to have a longer life.

D. How to live happily

第二节七选五

There is no such thing as a “bad memory”, and everyone can improve their memory, as long as you're not suffering from memory loss as a medical condition. 36 Stop thinking that you have a “bad memory”. Convince yourself that you do have a good memory that will improve. Too many people get stuck here and convince themselves their memory is bad, that they are just not good with names and that numbers just slip out of their minds,= for some reason. 37

Use association to remember facts. 38 For example, if you have a hard time remembering that JFK was the president involved in the Bay of Pigs Invasion, just picture the handsome president swimming in an ocean surrounded by happy, oinking pigs.

Involve multiple senses. You can stimulate （刺激） more parts of your brain by using as many senses as possible when memorizing information. 39 For example, the process of writing information by hand stimulates your brain and makes it easier to remember the information later.

40 By developing new mental skills ﹂ especially complex ones such as learning

a new language or learning to play a new musical instrument—and challenging your brain with puzzles and games, you can keep your brain active and improve its physiological function.

A. Erase those thoughts and promise to improve your memory.

B. If you want to improve your memory, there are a number of things you can do.

C. Give yourself some time to form a memory.

D. Exercise your brain as often as possible.

E. When a larger part of your brain is active, your ability to arouse your memory will increase.

F. This concrete image in your mind will help you link the president with this event.

G. You can create an image in your mind to help you remember a word or in image.

One possible version:

Dear Mike,

I’m very glad to have received the letter you sent me last week. I have been

thinking about the question you asked me. From my point of view, you can choose to

come to China after finishing your studies.

For one reason, China’s development over the past 30 years offers quantities

of job opportunities for the young. What’s more, what you are studying is badly

needed in China nowadays. In fact, many big companies in our city are hoping to hire

people like you.

For another reason, China is a country with so different cultures and traditions

from the west that many foreigners enjoy living and working here. Why not come and j oin them? I’m sure you will adapt to the environment quickly. If you come here, I will do what I can to help you. So what are you waiting for?

I’m looking forward to your coming.

Best wishes.

Yours,

Li Hua
