So when Florence Nightingale told her wealthy parents that she planned to become a nurse, they were very upset. What they want her to do was to learn to host big parties, serve tea, and later got married. Florence, however, had her own plans.In 1846, a friend sent Florence a book about a German school, which trained girls to care for the sick. Several years later, against her parents’wishes, Florence entered the school and completed nursing course. In 1853, she was offered a position in London, in charge of an institution that cared for the sick. There, she made many changed in improving the care of the sick.The Crimean War broke out in 1854. Conditions in the military hospitals were terrible, so the British Secretary of War assigned Florence to introduce female nurses into the military hospitals in Turkey. She took 38 nurses and they saved thousands of lives. She returned to England a heroine and she went on to establish the Nightingale Training School for nurses.To show respect to Florence’s efforts, Queen Victoria awarded Nightingale the Royal Red Cross in 1883. In spite of others’ objections, Florence followed her heart. As a result, she founded modern nursing and worked tirelessly for sanitary reforms in hospitals.56. What did Florence’s parents most probably want her to become in the future?A. A doctor.B. A housewife.C. A secretary.D. A heroine.57. When did Florence’s career probably begin?A. In 1846.B. In 1883.C. In 1854.D. In 1853.58. What is true about Florence?A. A book given by her friend encouraged her to take up nursing as her career.B. She went to the Crimean War to become a heroine in spite of others’ objections.C. She changed her parents’ minds and entered a German nursing school.D. She was unfortunately infected with an illness herself during the war.(B)In a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油), which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions (排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally, governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the limits if this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.59. The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that ______.A. It makes the world warmerB. it consumes natural resourcesC. it brings severe damage to forestsD. it makes growth hard to continue60. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. China lacks wind and solar energy.B. China is the leader of the low-carbon market.C. High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.D. Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.61. To fully develop the low-carbon markets, governments can ______.A. cut public expensesB. forbid carbon emissionC. develop public resourcesD. encourage energy conservation62. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To introduce a new business model.B. To compare two business models.C. To predict a change of the global market.D. To advocate sustainable development.Section C（8分）Directions:Choose from the sentences A—F to complete the passage. There are two extra sentences which you do not need to use.Stone Soup is an international magazine. 63. ________ Although the magazine is based in the United States, and most of the writing is by American children, we also publish the writing by children from across the world.Twenty-two years ago, my colleague Gerry and I started Stone Soup, along with a group of fellow university students. 64. ________ Our magazine is for the kind of writing that exists on the borderland between fiction and nonfiction. We look for novels based on experiences of life that are so real that we wonder whether the stories are true or not.Stone Soup is also a magazine of the arts. We draw on child artists from all over the world to show their arts in the magazine. Over the years our interest in children’s art has grown. In addition to publishing children’s art, we have built one of the finest collections of children’s art in the United States. 65. ________ We have also operated an after-school art school in which 150 children attend each week.66. ________ It includes the magazine, our museum programme and our art school. While the Children’s Art Foundation is a nonprofit organization, we operate it like a business. We have never received grants or donations. In fact, we believe that grants are often more of a problem for organizations than a benefit.A. Different magazines are designed for different readers.B. Its articles are written by English-speaking children up to age 13.C. Stone Soup was very popular at the very beginning.D. They are of great value.E. Our organization, the Children’s Art Foundation, is an integrated project.F. Now it has over 1,000 works from 40 countries.第Ⅱ卷（共23分）I.

We asked a few old friends to dinner.Like most elderly people, I suppose, we spent most of the evening talking about old times. Thirty years ago, the village used to be a quiet place. Now it has changed. Every Sunday hundreds of cars pass through the village at what I think a dangerous speed. They make the village almost as noisy as the streets of a large town. As a boy I enjoyed riding on the backs of the farm horses. Things are different now. Today there are very few horses working on the farms. The farm workers today drive tractors, not horses. A man is not of much use on a farm unless he knows all about machines. Now almost every house in the village has a TV set . Is it a good thing for children to spend the evening sitting in front of a TV set? When I was young I did not waste my time indoors. I would spendthe long summer evenings outdoors. I would play with my friends, go fishing or walk by the river. When my grandchildren asked me the reason why I havent bought a TV set, I tell them there are many books I still want to read.

They hope to encourage the birds to move away from the city centre and into parks and open spaces.Ten robotic birds have been brought into the city centre to scare the pigeons away and visitors are asked not to give the pigeons any food. The mechanical birds - known as robops - will sit on the roofs of buildings. They can be moved around to different locations. They look like a peregrine falcon, which is a bird that kills pigeons.

Afterall, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there weresome people elsewhere who liked to eat frog’s legs. However, they did not have enough frogsof their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around,and t hey were no use to the villagers.All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a betterfuture. But the dream didn’t last long.The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doingso well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be moreinsects around lately.The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and thechildren getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides(杀虫剂) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.They had been doing an important job — eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed,the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square andlisten to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.21.

In much of the United States, winter means the return of snow.Snow is a form of frozen water. It contains many groups or very small ice particles called snow crystals(晶体). These crystals grow from water particles in cold clouds. They usually grow around a piece of dust. All snow crystals have six sides, but they grow in different shapes. The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air. The shape of a snow crystal may change from one form to another as the crystal passes through levels of air with different temperatures. Snow contains much less water than rain. About seventy-five centimeters of snow has as much water as two and a half centimeters of rain.Generally, the color of snow and ice appears white. This is because the light we see from the sun is white. Most natural materials take in some sunlight. However, when light travels from air to snow, some light is sent back, or reflected(反射). Snow crystals have many surfaces to reflect sunlight. It is this light that gives snow its white color.Much of the water we use comes from snow. Melting snow gives water to rivers and crops. Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wildanimals from the cold. Fresh snow is made largely of air which is kept among the snow crystals. Because the air has trouble moving, the movement of heat is greatly reduced. However, snow is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people in the United States every year. Many people die in traffic accidents on roads that are covered with snow or ice.28. In the center of a snow crystal there is .A. airB.dustC. waterD. sunlight29. If fifteen centimeters of snow completely melts, the height of water will be .A. 0.5 centimeterB. 1 centimeterC. 1.5 centimetersD. 15centimeters30. According to the text, snow looks white because .A. snow is actually whiteB. the ice particles are whiteC. here is a lot of air in the snowD. the reflection of light makes it look white31.How can snow protect plants from the cold?A. Snow gives them much heat.B. Snow turns into water and waters them.C. Snow makes them keep moving .D. Snow contains air which has trouble moving.DThe worlds native languages are dying out at an unprecedented(空前的) rate, taking with them irreplaceable(不能替代的) knowledge about thenatural world, according to a new study.The study identified five global hot spots where languages are vanishing faster than anywhere else ---- eastern Siberia, northern Australia, central South America, the US state of Oklahoma and the US Pacific Northwest. Languages are suffering a global extinction crisis that greatly goes beyond the pace of species extinction, linguistics(语言学的) professor David Harrison noted, who said half of the worlds 7,000 languages were expected to disappear before the end of the century.Native people had an intimate(详尽的) knowledge of their environment that was lost when their language disappeared, along with other certain things often unfamiliar to us, Harrison stressed. Most of what we know about species and ecosystems is not written down anywhere, its only in peoples heads, he said. We are seeing in front of our eyes the loss of the human knowledge base.Harrison was one of a team of linguists who carried out the study. The researchers traveled to Australia this year to study native languages, some of the most endangered. According to Harrison, in Australia, they were heartened to see a woman in her 80s who was one of the only three remaining speakers of the Yawuru language passing on her knowledge to schoolchildren. He said such inter-generational exchanges were the only way native languages could survive. The children had elected to take this course, no one forced them, he said. When we asked them why they werelearning it, they said,This is a dying language, we need to learn it. Also, while there they found a man with knowledge of the Amurdag language, which had previously been thought extinct.The researchers said all five of the hot spots identified were areas that had been successfully colonized and where a dominant language such as Spanish or English was threatening native tongues.32.What does this text mainly talk about?A.The knowledge of native languages.B.A study on native languages endangered.C.Peoples efforts in saving native languages.D.Harrison and his study on languages.33.The underlined wordvanishingin the second paragraph can be best replaced by .A.developingB.changingC.increasingD.disappearing34.According to Harrison, language extinction .A.results in lots of worriesB.speeds up the pace of species extinctionC.threatens the existing of Spanish and EnglishD.brings about a loss of knowledge about the environment35.According to the text, native languages were endangered partly because of .A.few researches done on themB.the small population of native peopleC.the strong influence of ruling languagesD.little education native people receive at school[MVC:PAGE]三、七选五(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，选项中有两项为多余选项。
