Of course, things have changed and life is very different.Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are air-conditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment(娱乐) of young and old.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven’t yet started to take on heir(继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet’s surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.People are now largely vegetarians(素食者). You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible toget rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.Such would be our life in 2060.21. According to the passage, what will be on the moon in about A.D. 2060?A. Many tourists.B. Many other animals.C. Many plants.D. A sea.22. What will people eat then according to the passage?A. Biscuits in pill form.B. Foods in pill form.C. Foods in water form.D. Foods in gas form.23. The passage tells us that in 2060, ________ on the earth than now.A. there are fewer populationB. there are more pestsC. there is less waterD. the crops are getting better24. Why are people largely vegetarians in 2060?A. Because they don’t eat meat .B. Because doctors advise them not to eat meat.C. Because the number of animals decreases.D. Because all the animals have died of diseases.BOld BearKevin Henkes (2008), under 40 pagesTarget Audience: PreschoolersPrice: $3.8Content: It is snowing really hard and Old Bear is getting ready for his long nap.

But then came Avatar, the first must-see movie in 3D.But since Avatar, 3D cinema has struggled. In 2010, several 3D movies bombed at the box office. And by late 2010, some people said the technology was dead. Of course, this isn’t the first time Hollywood has struggled technology. Although sound was added to movies in the late 1920s, it took audience time to get used to the new technology. But in the end, sound and color became the standard. James Cameron, director of Avatar, thinks we’re going through the same process with 3D. Some day cinemas are charging too much for 3D movies. In the Us, seeing a 3D movie can cost up to $7.5 more than seeing it in 2D. Also, a recent study at California State University has found audience don’t actually enjoy movies in 3D any more than in 2D. Walter Murch, a famous movie editor, wrote in 2011 that human beings have no ability to process 3D images. Watching a 3D movie confuses our brain and this is why some people get headaches.But James Cameron disagrees. In fact, he recently predicted that in five years all movies will be in 3D. And there aresigns that 3D is fighting back. More 3D movies were put on the market in 2012 than ever before. The Lion King 3D recently made over $150 million at the box office, and Cameron’s Titanic 3D made even more.Who knows what the future holds for 3D? Steven Spielberg recently said, “ I’m hoping 3D gets to a point where people don’t notice it because then it just becomes another tool and helps tell a story.”29. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably means that in 2010, 3D movies ________.A. were not successfulB. became popularC. developed quicklyD. were of poor quality30.The example of sound and color is used mainly to show that ______.A. Hollywood tends to absorb what is newB. 3D technology takes time to be acceptedC. Hollywood struggles with new technologyD. high technology helps to make better movies31. In Walter March’s opinion, 3D movies_______.A. bring movie makers great profits.B. are more expensive than 2D movies.C. do great harm to people’s health.D. are unsuitable for people to watch.32. What can we learn from the text?A. Avatar was the first 3D movies.B. 3D cinema has existed for years.C. Titanic 3D has made the most money.D. 2012 witnessed the coming of 3D’s time.DGiven Australia’s size and the fact that early settlements were far apart, Australian society is remarkably homogeneous (同种的). Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city dwellers and the country people. Almost 90 per cent of thepopulation lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve pockets of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modern, with new buildings reflecting the country’s youth. In contrast, the rural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have “ridden on the sheep’s back”, a reference to wool being the country’s main money earner. However, the wool industry is no longer dominant. Much of Australia’s relatively sound economy is now achieved from natural coal and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly important. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a self-deprecating sense of humor. On the whole, Australia is a society without hierarchies (等级制度), an attitude generally held to stem from its prisoner beginnings.Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisoner origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally coming almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australia’s liberal postwar immigration policies led to an influx of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans.The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a ‘blend of nations’ and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful experiment and the country is justifiably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world.33. What does the writer mean by saying “It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.” in the first paragraph?A. Australians speak Standard English with no local accents.B. You have to practice a lot to learn to understand thedifferent accents.C. The Australian regional accents are very difficult tounderstand indeed.D. There is not much difference between the accents indifferent areas of Australia.34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to thepassage?A. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners.B. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports.C. The majority of people living in Australia come fromEurope.D. The pace of life is different in the city and in thecountry.35. We can infer from the passage that _____.A. there are no signs of Australia’s colonial past in itsmodern citiesB. Australia’s recent immigration policy encouragesimmigrants from Southeast AsiaC. immigrants from Southeast Asia have brought racialproblemsD. “riding on sheep’s back” resulted in slow developmentin rural communities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。

Not until Jack came to and found himself and his belongings in an emergency room did he learn that the lady had contacted his family and quietly left. Overwhelmed by her virtue, Jack was desperate to find her. Fortunately, the rescue scene was wholly recorded by his camera. He posted the video online, requesting clues so that he could say thanks and sorry to her.To Jack’s joy, a net friend sent a message saying where the lady lived. With gifts, Jack headed forthe lady’s home. Answering the door, the lady was surprised but immediately got aware of what wa s going on. She gave Jack a hug, saying smilingly, “So glad to see you well, son.” “Sorry, I came for apologies. I behaved so rudely… and thanks for your help.
