They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time --- at least twenty or thirty year.Like some other animals, dolphins use sound to help them find their way around. They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded (伤害) Jack. Herecovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area --- except for The Penguin.Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.34. Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they _________.A. live in groupsB. have large brainsC. are warm-bloodedD. have their own language35. Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around?A. Its nose.B. Its ears.C. Its mouth.D. Its eyes.36. Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A. He was lonely and liked to be with peopleB. They enjoyed playing with him.C. He was seriously wounded.D. They wanted his help.37. By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that _________.A. dolphins are friendly and cleverB. People are cruel to animalsC. Jack is different from other dolphinsD. dolphins should be protected by law(3)A study suggests that the United States needs to work on training and keeping scientists.Since 1980, the number of jobs that need science and engineering (S&E) knowledge has increased (增加). And each year in the US, the number of jobs that need S&E skills increases by 5%.In the next 20 years, many talented people with S&E knowledge will retire (退休), because more than half of them now are in their 40s or older and 30% of them are 55 or older. Therefore, to have enough talented people, universities need to train students in S&E. Yet fewer and fewer students are choosing jobs in S&E. In other words, there are not enough new talented people to take the place of the retiring ones, so there will be a gap (缺口) in the future.In the past, the US filled this gap with foreign talented people.These people came to the US to study and got their doctorates (博士学位) from American universities. Many of them lived in the US to use their science skills . In 2001, foreign talented people not more than half of the doctorates in S&E in this country.But the US can’t only depend on foreign talented people. In order to have more Americans with doctorates that work in jobs in S&E, more students need to go to university. However, even though the US is starting to support science, and middle school students are deciding to become scientists, these students will not finish their studies until 2018 or 2020.38. The number of jobs that need S&E skills increases by _________ each year in the US.A. 30%B. 5%C. 40%D. 20%39. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT right?A. In the US many old talented people with S&E knowledge will not retire because they are needed.B. Universities are training students in S&E to have enough talented people.C. A lot of foreign talented people lived in the US to use their science skills.D. Fewer and fewer students are choosing jobs in S&E.40. In the passage the writer thinks that________.A. all the students should study science at university in the USB. foreign talented students get less than half of the doctorates in the USC. the US needs to do something to keep talented people in S&ED. there are too many people in America that need jobs41. What main point does the writer mainly make in the last paragraph?A. Foreign talented people will not be used in the US in future.B. There will be more students to go to university to study in 2018.C. US people that have doctorates can work in jobs in S&E.D. There is still a long way to go to fill the gap.(4)In the tenth grade, I began volunteering at a vet hospital that was run by a family friend in order to get experience for what I thought would be my future job. As it turned out, the experience Igot at the hospital taught me the opposite: my future was not in vet medicine. However, there is one particular Saturday morning that taught me something maybe more important.The hospital was in the middle of one of the poorer sections of the city and we often had people come in who could just only pay for the most basic treatments. This Saturday a man and his young son, who was probably about 7 years old, walked in with a small cat in a cardboard box. I remember the cat had an eye infection (感染) but the man could not afford to pay for the cost of the medicine in addition to the exam. When he asked where the nearest the animal shelter was, his son cried and started to argue with his father. Out of the blue, an older woman who was sitting in the waiting room stood up, walked up to the counter, and told the man that she would pay for anything that he could not afford. The man thanked her and the son got to keep a healthy cat.I had always thought it was the right thing to help out a needy person, but it was only seen on TV or in movies. The woman in the vet’s office taught me that these things do happen in real life, and should happen more often. When I am hesitant (犹豫) to help someone who is in need, I remember that woman, and have the courage to do it. Sometimes other people follow.42. Why did the writer work at the vet hospital?A. He thought he would work there in the future.B. He wanted to get some skills of treating animals.C. He wanted to get some money for his schooling.D. He wanted to get some experience for his future work.43. What is the most important according to the writer?A. How to be a kind person who helps others.B. The practical experience of the vet job.C. How to deal with the owners of pets.D. The knowledge of vet medicine.44. What does the underlined phrase “out of the blue”?A. Out of order.B. All of a sudden .C. Now and then.D. First of all.45. The ________ made the writer have the courage to help someone in need.A. The officerB. The boyC. The womanD. The father四、词汇应用（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分）46.

(murder)五、任务型阅读（共10小题；每空1分，计10分）The most important thing you should know about the high jump is not to give up. You will be successful only by practicing. All your friends will be amazed at your performance. With a lot of hard work you can improve your jumps.The first suggestion you should keep in mind is using a longer approach (助跑). This may cause the most common mistakes. You must be with at least 20 feet behind the bar (起跑线) for getting the time to make a better reaction.Another important suggestion is to feel good with your running speed. Remember this is not a running competition. Try to make suitable for the speed to your body. Run perpendicularly (直立地) to the bar and do the best you can. Even if your friends run faster than you, the important thing is how high the jump is.Before jumping you should do some small exercises. For example, try doing some little jumps. This will let your mind know that you are preparing to jump again. This is more important than you think. It will help you get better results.Lifting weights will help you improve the body balance. This is very important if you wish to jump high. Try not to do this exercising in the same day when you are planning to jump. You need a good plan for exercising. By lifting weights your muscles (肌肉) will get stronger too.The only way to jump high is by working hard. You must know that it might take a while until you achieve the performance youwish. Giving up is not a choice. Do your best and someday youCan you imagine living in the desert for a whole year, watching the a 66 of a group busy ants? Deborah Gordon did exactly that.

Gatherer ants w 70 out to find food for the whole team and security ants fought against a 71 who wanted to hurt the members of the team.While she was watching the ants in the desert, Deborah f 72 that the most interesting part was watching the ants dealing with difficulties, such as fighting against o 73 insects that wanted to destroy their nest. At those moments, they would all s 74 what they were doing and go to help security ants to protect their h 75 .What do we do when people around us meet difficulties?

I moved around the house purposelesslytrying to decide what to put into the suitcases (行李箱).Earlier that evening, I’d received a call telling methat my brother was killed in a car crash. “Come as soonas you c an.” cried my mother.I wanted to hurry to her at once. But my husband, Larry,and I were packing to move from New York to Seattle. Ourhouse was in total mess. Supper dishes sat on the kitchentable. Toys lay everywhere. I purposelessly picked thingsup a nd put them down. Mother’s crying went through myhead again and again.Larry called some friends to tell them what had happened.Someone asked to speak to me. “If there’s anything Ican do, let me know.” But I didn’t know what to ask for.Suddenly, thr doorbell rang. It was Emerson. He and hiswife Donna lived in the block nearby.“I’ve come to clean your shoes,” he said.I asked him to repeat.“Donna had to stay with the baby,” he said, “but wewant to help you. I remember when my father died, it took me hours to clean our shoes for the funeral (葬礼). Give me all your shoes.” I gathered all our dirty shoes to the kitchen. Emerson got to work right away. Watching him devoting himself to one task helped me pull my own thoughts into order. I told myself to wash clothes first. Then, Larry and I bathed the children and put them to bed. One job after another. When we returned to clear the dishes, Emerson had left. All our shoes stood in a line against the wall, clean, shining. I couldn’t help crying. Early next mo rning, we left for the airport with all the jobs done. Now whenever I hear of a friend who’s lost a loved one, I no longer call with the polite offer,”If there’s anything I can do …” Instead I try to think of one specific task that suits that man’s need, l ike taking the dog to the boarding kennel, or house-sitting during the funeral. If the person asks,”How did you know I needed that one?” I reply,”Because a man once cleaned my shoes.” 34.The writer didn’t know what to put into the suitcases because _____.

Heplanned to climb it without oxygen tank, something only afew climbers had managed to do. He’d failed twice, onceThe writer ’s brother was killed in a car crash. The writer washed the clothes. They left for the airport.getting with 300 feet of the top before turning back.He left his high camp at 1 a.m., using a headlamp to find his way in the dark. He’d already been on the mountain for two months, receiving endurance and strength training in preparation for the Everest climb. He’d also lived through terrible cold, strong winds, and separation from friends and family.“The common practice was to use oxygen when climbing, as it,in fact, lowers the altitude (海拔) of the mountain by several thousand feet,” says Viesturs. “If I couldn’t climb Everest without oxygen tank, I wouldn’t climb it.”“You have to be physically fit,” he says. “But the mental (精神的) part is big. It’s so hard to keep going above 20,000 feet.”While making that final climb on Everest, he breathed 15 times for every step. He would tell himself to first reach the rock 100 yards ahead. Then he’d find another rock, then another. Finally he stood on the top, with the whole world at his feet. “It was one of those dream-come-true moments,” Viesturs says.Today, Viesturs makes his living in part as a speaker,talking about his climb of Everest and of the world’s 13 other highest mountain, all without oxygen. He helps people find the strength to overcome their difficulties. Finally, in his words, “The art of mountaineering is knowing when to go, when to stay, and when to turn back. We should go step when working toward our dreams. There are no shortcuts to the top.”38.What does the article mainly talk about?A.Viesturs’ first successful climb of Mount Everest.B.Viesturs’ physical preparation for climbing Everest.C.The difficulties that Viesturs has met in his life.D.The lessons that Viesturs can share with others.39.What do we know about Ed Viesturs?A.As soon as he reached Mount Everest, he set out for Everest climb.B.He’s been to the top of the world’s 14 highest mountain without oxygen.C.Well prepared, he had no difficulty climbing the top of Mount Everest .D.So far, he is the only one to have reached the top of Mount Everest without oxygen.40.The first “it” in Paragraph 3refers to (指的是)__________.A.being physical fitB.climbing EverestB. ing oxygen when climbing D.climbing without oxygen41.Which sentence should go in the empty box in the last paragraph?A.I like being near the top of a mountain.B.Life is like climbing a mountain.C.You never climb the mountain twice.D.Over every mountain there is a path.DParents of very young children know this: You catch your child in the act of stealing the cookie--the evidence of candy written on his or her face. However, you get a wide-eyed denial:”I didn’t do it!”Learning to tell the truth, even at the risk of punishment, is an important part of moral (品德) development, and new research suggests it can take seven or more years for kids to get there.Early 2017 Professor Craig E.Smith published a study. He and his workmates chose 48 children between four andnine years of age. They told the kids a story about a boy or girl doing something wrong, such as taking a classmate’s toy or candy, and then either lying about the wrongdoing to a parent or confessing (供认) it. In each case, they asked the children, How would the child feel? How would the mother feel?The children’s answers answers were generally divided according to age, which is in agreement with the stolen candy, lying and getting unpunished. They imagined the parent in the study would be angry with the child who confessed. However, the seven-to-nine-year-olds were more likely (可能的) to think the child would feel better confessing the crime and that the parent would have positive (积极的) feelings towards a confessor.Smith says,”Kids of all ages who expect that a parent would feel happy about a child’s confession are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie. Reward the honesty even if you feel you must punish the wrong action.” He adds, what parents can learn from these studies is to listen calmly without getting angry right away when their child confesses.42.What does the underlined word “denial” in Paragragh 1mean?A. 委屈B. 责备C. 否认D. 拒绝43.Paragragh 2 mainly tell us _________.A.kids can’t tell “right” from “wrong”B.it takes time for kids to learn to tell the truthC.it’s wrong to punish kids for telling the truthD.all the kids are willing to confess to a bad act44.What did Smith and his workmates find in their study?A.Older kids are more likely than younger children to confess to a bad act.B. Younger children are more likely than older kids to confess to a bad act.C.The four-to-five-year-olds would feel better confessing the crimeD.The seven-to-nine-year-olds thought parents would be angry with their confessions.45.According to Professor Smith, what can parents learn from these studies?A.Parents should at once punish the children who lied.B.Parents should tell children the wrongness of lying.C.Parents should never get angry after their children’sconfessions.D.Parents should show positive feeling about theirchildren’s confessions.四、辞汇运用（共10小题;每小题1分,计10分）根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空.（每空一词）46.The ______faces were a sight, covered with dust.

But often, the decision isn’t between this or that; it’s between acting or not. If this challenges you, here are some tips.Jog or ride a bike to nowhere. Just start moving in hopes of leaving the familiar. Walk down every street or path you can find until you lose your way. Then, see where you end up. Remember what it felt like to wonderwhere you were going? Try to lose yourself more often. It’ll make you better at making a decision.Sit outside without any technology for an hour. Let yourself get bored. Can you hear the birds singing? The wind blowing? Yourself breathing? Try to do this once a week, then every other day, then every day. One of the reasons we find it hard to make better decisions is that we keep getting attracted to new things. A break from the noise will lead you to the decision you need to make.Do something that scares you. People who have trouble making decisions fear mistakes. Tell someone you love them. Laugh out loud in a public place. Give a speech to a stranger. And when you do this, remember how you feel When you’re sacred by a risky situation the next time, tell yourself that you didn’t lie. And try to trust the process in the future.Some of these things may seem silly, but the more you do them, the more you’ll control yourself. It doesn’t matter where you’re going. Just go. Once you start moving, you can always change direction.One day, Laurie saw the four March girls walking quietly through the garden. He f__66__them.

I moved around the house purposelesslytrying to decide what to put into the suitcases (行李箱).Earlier that evening, I’d received a call telling methat my brother was killed in a car crash. “Come as soonas you can.” cried my mother.I wanted to hurry to her at once. But my husband, Larry,and I were packing to move from New York to Seattle. Ourhouse was in total mess. Supper dishes sat on the kitchentable. Toys lay everywhere. I purposelessly picked thingsup and put them down. Mother’s crying went through myhead again and again.Larry called some friends to tell them what had happened.Someone asked to speak to me. “If there’s anything Ican do, let me know.” But I didn’t know what to ask for.Suddenly, thr doorbell rang. It was Emerson. He and hiswife Donna lived in the block nearby.“I’ve come to clean your shoes,” he said.I asked him to repeat.“Donna had to stay with the baby,” he said, “but wewant to help you. I remember when my father died, it took me hours to clean our shoes for the funeral (葬礼). Give me all your shoes.” I gathered all our dirty shoes to the kitchen. Emerson got to work right away. Watching him devoting himself to one task helped me pull my own thoughts into order. I told myself to wash clothes first. Then, Larry and I bathed the children and put them to bed. One job after another. When we returned to clear the dishes, Emerson had left. All our shoes stood in a line against the wall, clean, shining. I couldn’t help crying. Early n ext morning, we left for the airport with all the jobs done. Now whenever I hear of a friend who’s lost a loved one, I no longer call with the polite offer,”If there’s anything I can do …” Instead I try to think of one specific task that suits that man’s n eed, like taking the dog to the boarding kennel, or house-sitting during the funeral. If the person asks,”How did you know I needed that one?” I reply,”Because a man once cleaned my shoes.” 34.The writer didn’t know what to put into the suitcases because _____.

Heplanned to climb it without oxygen tank, something only afew climbers had managed to do. He’d failed twice, onceThe writer ’s brother was killed in a car crash. The writer washed the clothes. They left for the airport.getting with 300 feet of the top before turning back.He left his high camp at 1 a.m., using a headlamp to find his way in the dark. He’d already been on the mountain for two months, receiving endurance and strength training in preparation for the Everest climb. He’d also lived through terrible cold, strong winds, and separation from friends and family.“The common practice was to use oxygen when climbing, as it,in fact, lowers the altitude (海拔) of the mountain by several thousand feet,” says Viesturs. “If I couldn’t climb Everest without oxygen tank, I wouldn’t climb it.”“You have to be physically fit,” he says. “But the mental (精神的) part is big. It’s so hard to keep going above 20,000 feet.”While making that final climb on Everest, he breathed 15 times for every step. He would tell himself to first reach the rock 100 yards ahead. Then he’d find another rock, then another. Finally he stood on the top, with the whole world at his feet. “It was one of those dream-come-true moments,” Viesturs says.Today, Viesturs makes his living in part as a speaker,talking about his climb of Everest and of the world’s 13 other highest mountain, all without oxygen. He helps people find the strength to overcome their difficulties. Finally, in his words, “The art of mountaineering is knowing when to go, when to stay, and when to turn back. We should go step when working toward our dreams. There are no shortcuts to the top.”38.What does the article mainly talk about?A.Viesturs’ first successful climb of Mount Everest.B.Viesturs’ physical preparation for climbing Everest.C.The difficulties that Viesturs has met in his life.D.The lessons that Viesturs can share with others.39.What do we know about Ed Viesturs?A.As soon as he reached Mount Everest, he set out for Everest climb.B.He’s been to the top of the world’s 14 highest mountain without oxygen.C.Well prepared, he had no difficulty climbing the top of Mount Everest .D.So far, he is the only one to have reached the top of Mount Everest without oxygen.40.The first “it” in Paragraph 3refers to (指的是)__________.A.being physical fitB.climbing EverestB. ing oxygen when climbing D.climbing without oxygen41.Which sentence should go in the empty box in the last paragraph?A.I like being near the top of a mountain.B.Life is like climbing a mountain.C.You never climb the mountain twice.D.Over every mountain there is a path.DParents of very young children know this: You catch your child in the act of stealing the cookie--the evidence of candy written on his or her face. However, you get a wide-eyed denial:”I didn’t do it!”Learning to tell the truth, even at the risk of punishment, is an important part of moral (品德) development, and new research suggests it can take seven or more years for kids to get there.Early 2017 Professor Craig E.Smith published a study. He and his workmates chose 48 children between four andnine years of age. They told the kids a story about a boy or girl doing something wrong, such as taking a classmate’s toy or candy, and then either lying about the wrongdoing to a parent or confessing (供认) it. In each case, they asked the children, How would the child feel? How would the mother feel?The children’s answers answers were generally divided according to age, which is in agreement with the stolen candy, lying and getting unpunished. They imagined the parent in the study would be angry with the child who confessed. However, the seven-to-nine-year-olds were more likely (可能的) to think the child would feel better confessing the crime and that the parent would have positive (积极的) feelings towards a confessor.Smith says,”Kids of all ages who expect that a parent would feel happy about a child’s confession are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie. Reward the honesty even if you feel you must punish the wrong action.” He adds, what parents can learn from these studies is to listen calmly without getting angry right away when their child confesses.42.What does the underlined word “denial” in Paragragh 1mean?A. 委屈B. 责备C. 否认D. 拒绝43.Paragragh 2 mainly tell us _________.A.kids can’t tell “right” from “wrong”B.it takes time for kids to learn to tell the truthC.it’s wrong to punish kids for telling the truthD.all the kids are willing to confess to a bad act44.What did Smith and his workmates find in their study?A.Older kids are more likely than younger children to confess to a bad act.B. Younger children are more likely than older kids to confess to a bad act.C.The four-to-five-year-olds would feel better confessing the crimeD.The seven-to-nine-year-olds thought parents would be angry with their confessions.45.According to Professor Smith, what can parents learn from these studies?A.Parents should at once punish the children who lied.B.Parents should tell children the wrongness of lying.C.Parents should never get angry after their children’sconfessions.D.Parents should show positive feeling about theirchildren’s confessions.四、辞汇运用（共10小题;每小题1分, 计10分）根据句子意思, 用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空.（每空一词）46.The ______faces were a sight, covered with dust.

But often, the decision isn’t between this or that; it’s between acting or not. If this challenges you, here are some tips.Jog or ride a bike to nowhere. Just start moving in hopes of leaving the familiar. Walk down every street or path you can find until you lose your way. Then, see where you end up. Remember what it felt like to wonderwhere you were going? Try to lose yourself more often. It’ll make you better at making a decision.Sit outside without any technology for an hour. Let yourself get bored. Can you hear the birds singing? The wind blowing? Yourself breathing? Try to do this once a week, then every other day, then every day. One of the reasons we find it hard to make better decisions is that we keep getting attracted to new things. A break from the noise will lead you to the decision you need to make.Do something that scares you. People who have trouble making decisions fear mistakes. Tell someone you love them. Laugh out loud in a public place. Give a speech to a stranger. And when you do this, remember how you feel When you’re sacred by a risky situation the next time, tell yourself that you didn’t lie. And try to trust the process in the future.Some of these things may seem silly, but the more you do them, the more you’ll control yourself. It doesn’t matter where you’re going. Just go. Once you start moving, you can always change direction.One day, Laurie saw the four March girls walking quietly through the garden. He f__66__them.
