AGorillas(大猩猩) are on the edge of extinction. They are calling on YOU to donate your phone today!You can now help save gorillas in Africa simply by donating your mobile phone! Coltan is a metallic ore(金属矿石)that is mined both in and out of Africa and can be found with many electronic devices such as mobile phones. The mining of coltan within the Congo River Basin is contributing to forest loss there, and is speeding up the loss of mountain gorillas at a shockingly fast rate. While efforts are being made to deal with this issue, the mining of coltan within gorilla habitat continues. It is very difficult to know which phones contain coltan mined from Africa; however, every phone can help save gorillas when donated to They’re Calling on You.By donating your phone through the They’re Calling You mobile phone recycling program you are:●Preventing your phone from going to the landfill.●Helping Melbourne Zoo raise money to support the Jane Good all Institutes monkey conservation workin Africa through the sale of refurbished(翻新)phones.●Lessening the demand for coltan mining.To support the They’re Calling You mobile phone recycling program you can:1.

Lindbergh Jr. took off from a muddy airfield in New York and headed for Paris. During the first fourteen hours of flying, he had had some anxious moments. Sleet (雨夹雪) had gathered on the wings of the plane and the fog was so thick that he could hardly seethe tips of the wings. However, he had come across equally dangerous flying conditions before. Of course, now that he was over the ocean, his parachute(降落伞)was useless. He had only one choice: he had to go on:Although he had waited a long time to make this trip, he did net feel strange or nervous. He was accustomedto flying alone, and he had flown this route in his imagination many times. The idea of flying across the Atlantic had occurred to him one night when he had been carrying the mail between St. Louis and Chicago. That night, he told himself that a solo non-stop flight between New York and Paris was possible. He knew that airplanes capable of making the long fight over the ocean could be built A man of skill and endurance could make his dream come true.As he was recalling that night, he reduced the altitude of the plane. Close to the surface of the ocean was safe, he found that the ice on the wings began to melt and the fog disappeared. For the time being, at least, he was safe. The steady sound of the motor seemed like music in his ears. He had perfect confidence in his plane because he knew that there was not a more dependable plane than his. The Ryan Aircraft Company had constructed the plane to meet his special needs. He had worked with the chief engineer of the company, Donald Hall, to produce the airplane as rapidly as possible. Although Hall had worked with the basic design of the Ryan airplane, he had had to make many modifications. As a result, it was ;a very special airplane. He had named it “The Spirit of St, Louis,” in honour of the St. Louis businessmen whose financial backing had made the trip possible. Besides their money, he had invested all of his own savings, which came to two thousand dollars, in the venture.At 12 :10 on the afternoon of May 21, Lindbergh caught sight of the coast of Ireland. Now that the flight was almost over, he began to relax a little. Finally, after thirty-four hours in the air without sleep, he arrived at Le Bourget Field, in Paris.24. According to Paragraph 2, Lindbergh Jr. didn’t feel nervous about the flight becau se of the following reasons EXCEPT that .A. he was used to flying aloneB. he had waited a long time for the tripC. he had imagined flying the route many timesD. his plane was specially designed25. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. The pilot listened to music as he reduced the altitude of the plane.B. The trip was made possible thanks to the financial support from some businessmen.C. The plane got its name in memory of a non-stop trip.D. The chief engineer designed the airplane independently to meet the pilot’s needs.26. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3mean?A. beautiful decorationsB. regular repairsC. small changesD. careful arrangements27. Which of the following would be the best title?A. Wings Across the AtlanticB. A Solo Non-stop Flight of 24 HoursC. The Spirit of St. LouisD. An Outstanding Pilot—Charles A. Lindbergh Jr.CIt may surprise bookworms, but apparently masterpieces such as Jane Eyre are lacking in something—sound effects. An electronic-book film is adding background noises and music to the works of Charlotte Bronte, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle . and William Shakespeare in the hope of attracting younger readers. In one example, a description of rain lashing against a window in a Sherlock Holmes story will be “enhanced” with matching noises.The first multimedia e-books- with sounds to accompany novels- will be available this Friday in the UK. The Booktrack releases are available to iPad users, with other tablet computer versions to follow. The concept is already in use in the U. S, where the classics come with added sound effects. Readers for example can hear the china cups chinking in Mr. Darcy’s garden as they read Pride And Prejudice.A story by Booker Prize winner Salman Rushdie will be released later in the year with a specially crafted orchestral score. Rushdie’s story In The South will be released with a soundtrack provided by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.The Power Of Six by Pittacus Lore, a novel for young adults, is one of the first to be tested with a soundtrack which builds in suspense in keeping with the plot. It works by timing the speed of each reader and the software measures the “tu rn ing”of a page and moves the music or sounds along accordingly. It has been created by Booktrack which synchronizes (使同步) music to each novel. It is funded by Peter Thiel, a co-founder of PayPal.Mr. Thiel said, “It’s always exciting to witness the creation of a new form of media. The technology promises to captivate readers in a different way.”However, they have been greeted with horror by traditionalists, who say the technology takes away the pleasure of having one’s imagination stimulated by a story. They also raise the prospect (预期) of having to ask an, overly eager reader to turrn their book down. David Nicholls, whose bestseller One Day was recently turned into a film starring Anne Hathaway, aid, “This sounds like the opposite of reading. It would be a distraction. ”28. What’s the purpose of the electronic-book firm adding sound effects to masterpieces?A. To add some creative factors to the e-books.B. To arouse interest of the readers.C. To satisfy the readers’ great need.D. To promote the technology progress.29. Where was the idea that sounds are added to accompany novels first put forward?A. Britain.B. Australia.C. New Zealand.D. America.30. The following should be done to make a soundtrack work, EXCEPT .A. increasing he volume of the music or soundsB. measuring how long each reader spends in readingC. making out the reading speedD. changing the music or sounds with pages turned31. What’s Mr. Thiel’ attitude to the future of the new form of mediaA. Doubtful.B. Indifferent.C. Hopeful.D. Negative.DAs has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many village communities feel their country side is being ruined by the power-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take “dire ct action”, even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies (财政补贴), which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in conflict with other residents(居民)Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion(比例) to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporters insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewables, nuclear and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting EU( European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.Against his background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official report on wind farms’ impact on the countryside becomes even more extraordinary. The two parties in thecoalition (联合) government are in disagreement over what it should say.We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report, and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidence that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surprise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaining why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention.The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place to produce an “acceptable” report suggests that the politics of coalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information should be available so that people can reach their own conclusions, rather than being left with the suspicion (猜疑) that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.32. We can learn from the first paragraph that .A. energy policy catches much attention of the publicB. the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farmsC. many village communities are satisfied with the subsidiesD. the planning laws suffer great benefits to the residents33. Supporters think that the expansion of wind power .A. is more rapid than that of carbon-based powerB. guarantees an increase in energy outputC. is expected to be mush better than that of nuclear powerD. agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation34. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. an official report will settle the energy problemB. the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farmsC. the two parties have agreed on a further negotiationD. political beliefs concerning energy issue go against facts35. Which of the following reflects the author’s opinion?A. Increase political impact on energy policy.B. Release a statement of supporters on wind farms.C. Let the nation judge the facts about wind power.D. Leave the two parties to reach their own conclusions.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
