In 2000，it was 41.07% and in 2001，the number was 42.14%.There are several reasons for this.Firstly，there is little difference between boys and girls in their intelligence(智力)．That's to say，girls are as clever as boys.And boys have more interests than girls，so they may not always do well in their study.Secondly，girls are more careful than boys.They work harder at school and they do better in most of the exams.Another reason is that with the development of society，people pay more and more attention to girls' education.51．It says that more and more ________.A．boys are as clever as girlsB．boys can't go to schoolC．girls have entered collegesD．girls begin to play at school52．42.14% refers to(指)the proportion of ________.A．girls at schools in 1998B．girls in colleges in 2001C．boys at schools in 2001D．boys in colleges in 199853．The writer gave us ________ reasons to explain the change.A．two B．three C．four D．five54．What does the underlined word “proportion” mean in Chinese？A．身高B．比例C．特性D．速度55．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Boys may not do well in their study, because they don't like studying.B．Boys are much cleverer than girls because they're interested in many things.C．Girls' intelligence is the same as boys'.D．Girls study harder，but they can't get higher marks than boys.C(词数：约220；建议用时：8分钟) You may have noticed that the world's population is not evenly distributed(分布)around our planet. There are some countries where people seem to be living nearly on top of each other because conditions are overcrowded. Then there are others where it seems that hardly anybody lives. What influences(影响)this unequal distribution(不平衡的分布)of people? There are some advantages and disadvantages of living in a certain area.The two factors that influence people's choice of location are climate and resources. Climate is the usual weather conditions in an area. Areas that have bad weather are not good places to live in. The North Pole and the South Pole at the top and bottom of the world may be beautiful in their rugged, natural way, but the disadvantage of the cold and windy conditions usually keeps people away. When it comes to climate, warm conditions and a normal amount of rainfall are advantages that attract people.Natural resources are things that we get from nature that help uslive. Each region offers different resources. People who enjoy the beach can make their living by catching and selling the ocean's many fish and other sea creatures. Those who like farming can use rich soil in valleys near rivers. Some people are willing to accept the terrible conditions of deserts or mountains in order to use the resources like oil or woods.56．The underlined part “on top of” in the first paragraph most likely means ________．A．very close to B．on the highest part ofC．in control of D．on the surface of57．What are the main factors that influence the distribution of people?A．Resources and oceans.B．Climate and rivers.C．Climate and resources.D．Warm conditions and rainfall.58．The writer thinks many people don't live near the North Pole or the South Pole because________．A．they can't get enough food thereB．the natural sights there don't attract peopleC．the unpleasant weather keeps them awayD．the length of nighttime is too short or too long 59．Why do people go and live in valleys near rivers?A．Because the temperature isn't too low in winter.B．Because the resources like oil can bring them much money.C．Because people can make their living by catching and selling fish.D．Because it's easier for people to grow plants or keep animals.60．The last paragraph tells us ________．A．people cannot survive in cold conditionsB．different resources attract different groups of peopleC．people usually prefer living at the seaside to living in mountainsD．a normal amount of rainfall is necessary for people to live in the desert八、任务型阅读(每小题2分，共10分)(词数：约240；建议用时：7分钟)In the time it takes you to read this sentence, the population of the world will have grown by ten people. Maybe you think it's a small number, but it is 9，000 an hour, 1.5 million a week, or 79 million a year. That is the same as adding (增加) most of the population of Germany to the world every year.Most of these new people were born in developing (发展中的) countries. These countries are found in Africa, South America and partsof Asia. In the developed (发达的) countries, the population is growing very slowly. This is because women in these countries have, on average (平均), only one or two children. In the developing countries, many families have five or more children. In 1950, about one quarter of the world's population lived in the developed countries. By 2050, these countries will be home to one tenth of the world's population.In the developing countries, more than one billion people already live below the poverty line (贫困线). These people don't have enough food to eat and they live in poor houses. Children get little or no time at school and people suffer (遭受痛苦) from many kinds of diseases (疾病)．At the beginning of the 21st century, the world's population was about six billion. The UN (联合国) has said that the world's population will level off (趋平) at 12.5 billion by the year 2100. Other groups think the world's population will continue to (继续) grow, reaching 14 billion before it becomes stable (稳定的)．61．How many people are added to the world's population an hour?_______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ 62．Where can we find the developing countries?_______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________63．In 1950, what percentage (百分比) of the world's population lived in the developed countries?_______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ 64．What are examples that show people are living below the poverty line?_______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ 65．There will be 12.5 billion people on the earth by the year 2100 according to the UN, won't there?_______________________________________________________九、根据句意及首字母提示完成单词(每小题2分，共10分)66．There is so much n________ in that room.

Its population is the second largest in the world. China has the largest population of over 1.36 billion. One out of six people on this planet live in India. Although, the crown (王冠) of the world’s most populous (人口稠密的) country is on China’s head for ten years. India will take the positionby 2030. With the population growth rate (率) at 1.58%, India will have more than 1.53 billion people by the end of 2030.Now more than 50% of India’s population is below the age of 25 and over 65% below the ageof 35. About 72.2% of the population live in some 638,000 villages.Some of the reasons for India's quickly growing population are poverty, illiteracy (无知), decrease in death rates and immigration (移民) from Bangladesh and Nepal. India started taking measures to stop the growth rate quite early. India had the "National Family Planning Program" in 1952. It became the first country in the world to have a population policy. However, it failed to reach the final goal (目标).21．The population of India is now.A．1.58 billion B．1.53 billionC．1.36 billion D．1.27 billion22．The underlined word “position’ means “” in Chinese.A．麻烦B．现象C．位置D．考验23．Over 65% of India’s population is below the age of.A．25 B．35 C．45 D．5524．is not the reason for India’s quickly growing population.A．Poverty B．IlliteracyC．Increase in death rates D．Immigration25．Which of the following is TRUE?A．India’s population growth rate is 1.58%.B．One out of seven people on the earth live in India.C．About 72.2% of India’s population lives in the city.D．In 1953, Indian started the “National Family Planning Program”.Dolphins (海豚) are not fish but mammals (哺乳动物)．They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this way they are like many other animals, like bees. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain (脑) is nearly the same size as humans', so they are the cleverest animals. And they live for 20 to 30 years.But what does the dolphin look like？The dolphin has teeth, and eats fish. It can grow up to three and a half metres long. Its nose is very long. Like some other animals, the dolphin uses sound to find its way. They make sound to talk to each other and to help find food. We nowknow they don't use their ears to listen to the sound, but the jaws (颚)．Dolphins are friendly to people. They often save people in the sea. So many people like them. 26．What kind of animals are dolphins?A．Fish. B．Mammals. C．Birds. D．We don't know. 27．The biggest difference between dolphins and other land animals is that ______.

People didn't have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution to all living things in the world.Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt (被状物) over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, and they mustn't let dirty smoke go into the air.We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw them on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.31．Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today because ____.A．there were not any modern machinesB．there was no modern medicineC．both A and BD．there was no food32．____is one of the biggest problems in today's life.A．Pollution B．Air pollutionC．Noise pollution D．traffic jam33．The most serious kind of pollution is ____.A．noise pollution B．air pollutionC．water pollution D．light pollution34．Factories must clean their water ____.A．before they are thrown away B．when they are thrown away C．before it is thrown away D．After it is thrown away35．From the passage, we know that ____.A．a few years ago, there was no smog at allB．people are making rules in order to (为了) fight pollutionC．we can drink water from the polluted rivers and lakesD．dining is the biggest reason for pollution四、信息归纳Canada is a big country with a large area, but it has a small population. It lies in North America with ocean around it in three directions except in the south, where the United States is. The Great Lakes are between Canada and the United States. There are many lakes and islands in the coastal areas. Canadians care about the environment very much. The government and the people in Canada try their best to protect the environment.

Men of 22 years old and women of 20 years old can get married. If a man of 25 or over 25 gets married to a woman of 23 or over 23, their marriage is a late marriage.

D．Reading.BThere are about 7 billion people on the earth now.The world's population is a big problem because it will cause lots of problems in the future.More people will need more food and will need

to fall due to(由于)people getting married later as well as the development of technology，the rate is on the rise again now.The important thing is not how large the population of the world is，but how fast the rate increases.The world population increased from 3 billion in 1959 to 6 billion by 1999.The world population will grow from 6 billion in 1999 to 9 billion by 2050.This great growth of the population will create a big problem by the year 2100—there will be over 10 billion people in the world then.(A)46.The population of the world is about ________ now and may be over ________ by

more and more girl students have entered colleges to study in recent few years.As we know，once the number of boys was larger than that of girls，and the boys did much better than girls in our country for a long time.Now things have changed a lot.In recent years，the proportion of girl students is growing fast.In 1998，about 39.7% of college students were girls.In 2000，it was 41.07% and in 2001，the number was 42.14%.There are several reasons for this.Firstly，there is little difference between boys and girls in their intelligence(智力)．That's to say，girls are as clever as boys.And boys have more interests than girls，so they may not do well in their study.Secondly，girls are more careful and more sensible than boys.They work harder at school and they do better in all exams.Another reason is that with the development of society，people pay more and more attention to girls' education.(C)51.China Youth says that more and more ______．A．boys are cleverer than girlsB．boys can't go to

change the deserts.Scientists think that people make deserts.People are doing bad things to theearth.Some places on the earth don't get much rain.But they still don't become deserts.This is because some green plants are growing there.Small green plants and grass are very helpful to dry places.Plants don't let the hot sun make the earth even drier.Plants don't let the wind blow the earth away.When a little bit of rain falls，the plants hold the water.Without plants，the land can become deserts much more easily.(C)56.Why can the land become deserts?A．Some places don't get much
