skyscrapers were nearing completion.The Bank of Manhattan Building was finished first.It rose up to 927feet into the sky.Builders were then putting a round roof on the top of the Chrysler Building.It shot up to 925feet.The Bank of Manhattan,two feet taller,seemed to be the winner.A big party was held to celebrate its victory.A few weeks later,New Yorkers saw a strange sight.The day that the

signs are formed with movements of the hands,face and body.Each sign has a different meaning.Signs are mixed up to form sentences.The basic sign language is hand signs that take the place of letters.The signs,which are put together,can (84)e the same thoughts,feelings and so on as a spoken language.And just as different countries usually speak different languages,most countries have their own variation (变化)of sign language.In addition to knowing sign language,it is also helpful to know(85)s about how deaf people communicate.Hand waving or hitting a table or the floor to get someone's

But I can’t see her yet.I really want Goldie to win this race. I want to give Grandad the good news when I see him tonight in hospital. My eyes search the blue sky. Still no sign of Goldie.“Calm down, Danny!”I tell myself. That's what Grandad would have said: “Calm down, Danny!”But it’s hard to be calm. This job is very important. I’ll tell you why.Before a race they put a rubber ring on every pigeon’s leg. When Goldie comes back, I’ve got to catch her, as soon as she lands.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题): (12分)If your home is like most others, you've probably got a recycling (回收) bin in your kitchen. Good for you. That’s the first step to recycling. But there are other things that both parents and kids can do to make recycling work better.First, what kinds of rubbish bins are in the other rooms of your house? What about in your bedroom? You’ve probably just got one rubbish bin where everything goes. But it’s a good idea to place a special bin for recycling paper. Then when it goes full, you can empty it into a larger recycling bin in the kitchen. You can also put a small recycling bin in the bathroom for any useless paper there.Before you throw an item into the recycling bin, stop and think if you can use that item again. Take plastic items with yogurt, for example. After eating what’s in them, you can clean them and store them in a cupboard, and later you can use them for storing another food item. You can do thesame with the glass jars, too. You can also share your recycling advice with your neighbours.If you decide to put an item in the recycling bin, it’s very important to follow this method. If it has food or drink m it, you must clean it before you put it in the recycling bin. It can’t be recycled with food still in it. You should place the item under the running water for a few seconds to clean it. This saves time for the workers in the recycling center. Then they can use their time doing more important work.The last thing to remember is - don’t give up! Recycling is a whole life task and you mustn’t just do recycling for a month and then return to your old habits. You can also continue to find other ways to recycle. So make recycling your new habit, and get others involved as well!88.

Outside, it was very cold and everything was covered by thick snow. Inside the den with his mother, however, Yuri felt safe and warm.Then, when Yuri was only a few weeks old, some hunters came. Dogs were sent into the den. Yuri’s mother was woken up by the dogs. She tried to protect her cub, but when she climbed out of the den, she was shot by the hunters.Every year, between 3,000 and 4,000 brown bears are hunted and killed like this. There are only 110,000 brown bears in Russia today and they almost disappear in other European countries. Their meat and fur are sold for thousands of dollars, so people will continue to hunt them. The cubs are usually just left to die. Without their mothers they can’t survive.Yuri, however, was lucky. He was found by one of the hunters and he was taken to The Russian Bear Orphanage, 350 kilometers northwest of Moscow. The orphanage is run byProfessor Valentin Pazhetnov. Here, Yuri will be looked after. He and other orphan bears will be fed and taught how to survive. When they are old enough, they will be taken to a nature reserve in Bryansk, where they will be protected. Professor Pazhetnov hopes that in the future some bears will be released in other European countries where they are now extinct.So far, over a hundred bear cubs have been saved by the orphanage. Seventy bears have been returned to the forest. We want to save more. That’s why I’m writing to you now. Money is needed for food, transport and for people to look after the baby bears.

Each morning he was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his holy(圣书)book. One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa! I try to read the holy book just like you but I don’t understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?”The grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take, this coal basket down to the river and bring back a basket of water.”The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home, Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead. The old man said, “I don’t want a bucket of water, I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough,” and Grandpa went out of the door to watch the boy if he would do. The boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got to the house. The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather, the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he said, “See Grandpa, it’s useless.”“So you think it is useless.” The old man said, “Look at the basket.” The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different.

He was so pleased with what he had bought that he offered to share the mushrooms with his fellow officers. When their breakfast arrived the next day, each officer found some mushrooms on his plate.One officer looked at the mushrooms carefully and then suggested, “They look nice, but I heard that some mushrooms might be poisonous (有毒的). Let’s get Jimmy to examine a piece for us.” Jimmy was the dog they kept. They brought it in, and fed it one piece of mushroom. The dog quickly ate it, and seemed to enjoy his mushroom. Fifteen minutes later, Jimmy was still alive and kicking without showing any discomfort. The officers were relieved (放心的) and began to eat their meal, saying that the mushrooms had a very strange but quite pleasant taste.However, an hour later, the gardener rushed into the room and reported in a sad voice that the dog was dead. The officers were astonished and their faces turned white out of fear. Immediately, they jumped into their cars and rushed to the nearest hospital. The doctors and nurses used pumps (吸物器) to help them get rid of the mushrooms that remained in their stomachs. Everyone had a hard time.When they returned to the police station, they sat down and started to discuss the mushroom poisoning. Each man explained the pains he had felt and they agreed that it had grown worse on their way to the hospital. “The poor dog must have died a painful death,” said one officer. “Let’s ask the gardener how it died.”So they called the gardener in and asked him more details about Jimmy’s death.

Kyle MacDonald, a 26-year-old Canadian, got a three-bedroomed house through 14 trades(交换).Seeing Kyle’s successful experience, now more and more young people around the world are starting their own trading activities. They set up websites where people can trade things they do not usually use with other people. A website called Peerfix allows people to trade their used DVDs. These traders usually prefer face-to-face trading, which means they don't have to worry about who is going to pay for the delivery.Last year, a young girl in Beijing decided to follow the example of Kyle. She started with a paper clip and hoped to get a house in the end. After several trades she now has a piano which is worth more than 10,000 yuan. But she may still have a long way to go.You may wonder why people are so interested in those trading activities. If you ask Kyle, he will say, “To a man dying of thirst(干渴) in the desert, a glass of water is surely more useful than one million dollars, isn't it?”Kyle’s words probably show why these trades are popular among young people.88.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

Iceland, an island just south of the Arctic Circle, has fairly mild winters, thanks to warm ocean currents.Time your vacation here during the winter months to take advantage of off ﹣season deals.Off﹣season means good deals on flights, hotels and tours.You may also find that the locals are a bit friendlier and more welcoming when tourists aren't arriving in crowds.In the winter months, there are less than seven hours of daylight; thus, chances are good you'll catch sight of the northern lights.Sunsets are also beautiful at this time, making for some great photo opportunities.In Iceland, winter is the perfect time to hike glaciers, go ice climbing, explore caves made out of hardened lava(岩浆) and much more.One of the most popular activities is off﹣roading(越野比赛) in a specially﹣equipped"super jeep".Before booking your trip, be sure to check for volcano alerts.There are about130volcanoes on or around Iceland.Thirty﹣five of them are active.In 2010, a volcano named Eyjaallajokull exploded, sending clouds of ash up to four kilometers into the atmosphere.The ash drifted toward the UK and Europe.Because the ask could damage aircraft engines, airlines operating in the region were forced to cancel flights for six days.As a result, thousands of people were stuck in airports.Recently, another volcano named Bardarbunga has become active, erupting ash into the air.Such events, if large enough, could prevent your trip from going ahead.So check the latest volcano news prior to making your reservations.(1)According to this article,why are you more likely to see the northern lights in the winter?________A They move from rural areas to cities.B The weather is more stable at that time.C They're a special feature of many festivals.D The sky is dark for longer periods then.(2)According to the article,how do visitors to Iceland have fun in the winter?________A They learn how to ski down the mountains.B They photograph famous historic sites.C They explore the countryside in well made vehicles.D They spend a week at one of the seaside resorts.(3)What is true about the volcanoes of Iceland?________A The majority of them are quiet.B Their age hasn't been determined.C All but one of them are extinct.D Citizens aren't affected by them.(4)What does this article explain?________A Some of Iceland's urban cultural attractions.B A way t reduce the cost of a trip to Iceland.C Reasons for visiting Iceland in June and July.D The average price for a short tour of Iceland.6.

C DEVELOPMENT OF STRATEGIES. D SELF﹣SELECTION.7. A rapidly advancing contemporary science that is highly dependent on new tools isEarth system science.Earth system science involves observation and measurements on the Earth at all scales from the largest to the smallest.The huge amounts of data that are gathered come from many different locations and require special techniques for handling data.Important new tools that facilitate Earth system science include satellite remote sensing, small deep﹣sea submarines, and geographic information systems.More than any other way of gathering evidence, satellite observations continually remindus that each part of the Earth interacts with and is dependent on all other parts.Earth system science was born from the realization of that interdependence.Satellite remote sensing makes possible observations at large scales, and in manycases, measurements of factors that could not otherwise be measured.For example, the ozone hole over Antarctica﹣﹣the decrease in the concentration of ozone high in the atmosphere﹣﹣is measured by remote sensing, as are changes in deserts, forests, and farmlands around the world.Such measurements can be used in many areas of specialization besides Earth system science.Archaeology, for example, has benefited from satellite observations that reveal the traces of ancient trade routes across the Arabian Desert. New tools for exploring previously inaccessible areas of the Earth have also added greatlyto our knowledge of the Earth system.Small deep﹣sea submarines allow scientists to travel to the depths of the ocean.There they have discovered new species and ecosystems thriving near deep﹣sea vents that emit heat, sasses, and mineral﹣rich water.Just as important as new methods of measurement and exploration are new ways to store and analyze data about the Earth system.Computer﹣based software programs known as geographic information systems, or GIS, allow a large number of data points to be stored along with their locations.These can be used to produce maps and to compare differentsets of information gathered at different times.For example, satellite remote sensing images of a forest can be converted to represent stages in the forest's growth.Two such images, made at different times can be overlaid and compared, and the changes that have taken place can be represented in a new image.(1)The word"facilitate"in Paragraph I is closest in meaning to________.A enable B. C organize D.(2)The author of the passage mentions that satellite observations are especially effectivein________.A conducting scientific studies of life on the ocean floor.B predicting future climatechanges. C providing data to determine Earth's age. D demonstrating interactions among all of Earth's parts.(3)According to the passage,satellite observations of the Arabian Desert allow archaeologists to know________.B evidence of former lakes.C traces of early farms.D remains of ancient forests.(4)What is the main idea of the passage?________A special techniques are needed to classify the huge amounts of data aboutEarth. B New tools provide information about Earth that was once impossible to obtain. C Advances in Earth system science have resolved many environmental problems. D Satellite remote sensing can show changes between two images taken years apart.Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.8. For a sight of an evolving technology that promises to shake video gaming to its foundation,check out"Throw Trucks With Your Mind".Unlike most video games,it doesn't rely solely on a mouse.Instead,its players also puton a headset that enables them to throw trucks or other virtual objects simply by thinking.And that's just for starters.Advocates of so﹣called neurogaming(交感神经游戏)say the concept in a few years will combine a wide variety of physiological factors,from a player's heart rate and hand gestures to pupil dilation(瞳孔扩张) and emotions.Moreover,they imagine many such games being developed to improve the health,brainpower and skills of those playing them.The electroencephalography(脑电波仪),or EEG,headset used to throw trucks and other objects onto enemies was made by San Jose,California.﹣based NeuroSky.It measures separate brainwave frequencies that reflect how focused the player is and how calm they are,according to Lat Ware of Emeryville,California.,who developed the game.The game,which can be purchased at www.throwtrucks.com,costs﹩25,or﹩99 with the headset.Ware,29,said it's possible to move a pear or other small virtual object if the player is calm,but not focused,or vice versa.But he said both mental states are essential to flatten an enemy with a huge truck,which takes considerable concentration.Although only a few neurogames have been introduced so far and their action tends to be fairly limited,the games are expected to become far more challenging﹣and multipurpose﹣as the software and related technology improves.One concept being explored is to develop games that adjust their action according to the player's changing emotions.These are measured by such factors as their facial expressions,eye movement and skin﹣conductance(皮肤导电) levels.Another approach is to make games that influence how the player thinks and feels.Consider Los Angeles﹣based Melon,which,like"Throw Trucks With Your Mind,"was recently launched via the online fundraising site Kickstarter.Melon officials say their firstgame﹣﹣which challenges players to fold origami(折纸) with their mind,using NeuroSky's EEG headset﹣﹣helps people"learn how to focus,relax and meditate better." 78.According to this article,what is the purpose of developing the new kind of games?________79.The function of brainwave frequencies measured by EEG made by San Jose is to________.80.According to Ware,if you want to throw something such as a truck,you mustbe________.81.What is the new idea being studied to develop more challenging and multipurpose games?________(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN ELEVEN WORDS)I.
