He was probably the first in the middle 28 to suggest that we must learn science with observing and experimenting on the things around us, and he himself 29 many important discoveries.Galileo, however, who lived more than 300 years later (1564-1642), was the greatest of several great men, who in Italy, France, Germany, or England, began to show how many important 30 could be discovered by observation. Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 31 towards the earth than small ones, 32 Aristotle said so. But Galileo, going to the 33 of the leaning Tower of Pisa, let fall two 34 stones and proved Aristotle was wrong.

AbilityIII 阅读理解（每小题2分，共22分）AAlbert Einstein was probably the most famous scientist of the twentieth century. He changed scientific thinking in the modern world. He is generally considered as the greatest physicist who ever lived. What's more, he devoted a lot of his time and energy to working for human rights and progress.In 1933, while Einstein was visiting England and the United States, the Nazi government of Germany took all his things away, including his position and his citizenship. Einstein then settled down in the United States. In 1939, Einstein, who loved peace—afraid of a world in which only Hitler would had an atomic bomb（原子弹）—tried hard to persuade President Franklin D.Roosevelt in a famous letter to have the United States start uranium（铀）research. That Germany, after all, had no bomb, and that the first bomb would fall on Japan, could not have been expected. After the war, Einstein never stopped working for peace and reducing the number of soldiers in the world.Although he wasn't connected with any accepted religion, Einstein felt that trust in a personal God was too special an idea to be suitable to the God at work in this universe, but he never believed that the universe was one of disorder. The universe to him was one of pure law and order. He once said, "God may know everything but he is not hateful."36. From the passage we know that _______ .A. no scientist is as great as Albert Einstein during this centuryB. Albert Einstein made the first atomic bomb for the United States of AmericaC. Albert Einstein was likely to be the greatest scientist of his timeD. Albert Einstein gave up his German citizenship for political reasons 37. If Einstein had known that Hitler had no atomic bomb and that the first atomic bomb would fall on Japan, he would _______ .A. not have advised starting uranium research in the U.S.A.A. have continued his scientific researchB. have won another Nobel Prize for physicsD. not have moved to the U.S.A.38. Einstein believed that everything in the universe _______ .A. had nothing to do with each otherB. was kept in order by its own lawC. happened in an irregular wayD. was made by the personal God.BDid anyone find the names of “Great Britain”, “the United Kingdom”, “England” and “the British commonwealth（英联邦）” which have the same meaning? Strictly speaking, these names all refer to something different. None of them are exactly the same as any of the others.The British Isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well, which you can see on the map. Great Britain, or Britain, refers to the larger of the two main islands. But the word “Britain” is often used as a short form for the United Kingdom or you call it the UK .Now as for England, it refers simply to the largest of the three countries on the island of Great Britain. The United Kingdom is the name of the state and the official name of the country, which many people popularly refer to England.Finally, the Britain commonwealth is the usual name for what is left of the British Empire. This change shows the weakening of British Empire and the rising of the national liberation movements throughout the world today.39. According to the passage, we know that ____ .A. the United Kingdom has the same meaning as Britain or EnglandB. all the names in the first paragraph have the same meaningC. all the names refer to EnglandD. Great Britain has the same meaning as Britain40. It is clear that the British Isles refer to ____ .A. Britain, England and the UK.B. three countries and several islandsC. the two main islands and thousands of small onesD. Great Britain or the United Kingdom41. Which of the following shows the right relationship (关系) between the British isles (BI), Britain (B) and England (E)?A. B>BI>EB. BI>E>BC. BI>B>ED. E>B>BI42. If you want to write to someone in Edinburgh that lies in Scotland, you should write the address as____.A. Edinburgh, EnglandB. Edinburgh, Great BritainC. Scotland, Edinburgh, EnglandD. Great Britain, Scotland, EdinburghC London UndergroundThe world’s first subway was built in London in 1863. At the time，the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of London. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that it was almost impossible for horse carriages to get through. The city officials were interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day. If people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to go to and from work，they would relocate their homes outside of the city. This would help ease(减轻) the pressure of too many people living in the poor parts of London. From these problems，the idea of the London Underground, the first subway system, was born.The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays, but the fast track was finally opened in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the fast underground track which was 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) long. About 30，000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats (standing up while the train was moving was not allowed)，and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. However，the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot(煤灰)，as well as chemical gases. Fans (扇子)had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems，riding in the Underground did catch on. It carried 9 million riders in its first year.43.What led the British government to build the London Underground？A. Traffic jams and pollution.B. Population and pollution.C. Overcrowding and traffic problems.D. The poverty and subway problems.44.How did the London Underground solve the smoke problem？A. It made the tunnels larger.B. It put fans in the tunnels.C. It cleaned the chemical gases in the tunnels.D. It reduced the number of passengers riding in the train. 45.The underlined phrase “catch on” most probably means “______”.A. be troublesome B seizeC. keep up withD. become popular and fashionable46. Which of the following is TRUE？A. The subway greatly eased the pressure of traffic.B. To relocate the workers’ homes outside London，the government built the subway.C. There were so many problems and delays that in the 18th century the first subway opened.D. There were not enough seats for the passengers the first day the subway opened.。

Without him, the world might still be a dark place. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the phonograph(留声机), the motion picture camera, and over 1,200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new.Thomas Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11, 1847. His family moved to Port Huron, Michigan, when he was seven years old. Surprisingly, he attended school for only two months. His mother, a former teacher, taught him a few things, but he was mostly self-educated. His natural curiosity led him to start experimenting at a young age with electrical and mechanical things at home.When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train that ran between Port Huron and Detroit. He set up a laboratory in a baggage car of the train so that he could continue his experiments in his spare time. Unfortunately, his first work experience did not end well. He was fired when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the baggage car.Thomas Edison then worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time on the job conducting experiments.

However, bridge experts throughout the world thought that this was impossible and told Roebling to forget the idea.However, Roebling thought about it all the time and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. He just had to share the dream with someone else. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington that the bridge in fact could be built.With great excitement and inspiration, and great hardships before them, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge in 1869.The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move. In spite of his handicap, Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.Now all he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By touching his wife’s arm with that finger, he slowly developed a code of communication with his wife. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife’s arm, telling the engineers what to do, until the bridge was finally completed.60.

It is true, we meet all kinds of situations during the day, and some of them may not be conductive(有好处的) to happiness. We can choose to refuse to think about the unhappy events. If we let outer events influence our moods, we become their slaves. On the other hand, we can free ourselves from outer influences. We can choose to be happy, and we can do a lot to add happiness to our lives.What is happiness? It is a feeling of inner peace and satisfaction. It is usually experienced when there are no worries, fears or confused thoughts, and this usually happens when we do something we love to do or when we win, gain or achieve something that we value. It seems to be the outcome of positive events, but it actually comes from the inside,triggered(触发) by outer events.For most people happiness seems passing quickly. One of the best ways to keep it, is by gaining inner peace through daily meditation(冥想). As the mind becomes more peaceful, it becomes easier to choose the happiness habit.Here are a few tips for increasing happiness in daily life:Try hard to change the way you look at things. Always look at the bright side.Think of solutions, not problems.Listen to relaxing, uplifting music.Watch funny comedies that make you laugh.Each day, devote some time to reading a few pages of an inspiring book or article.Whenever you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, start thinking ofpleasant things.68. For most people happiness seems passing quickly because _______.A. they let changing outer circumstances affect themB. they hope that even greater happiness will comeC. they have no friends to share happiness with themD. they don’t want to achieve any greater happiness69. We can learn from the passage that our happiness is _______.A. that we own a great deal of moneyB. to achieve the goal we havebeen seekingC. a feeling of inner peace and satisfactionD. the feeling that we areadmired by others70. According to the author happiness depends on _______.A. outer circumstancesB. our attitude toward itC. the conditions we haveD. the objective world71. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Happiness Is the Goal in Daily Life.B. Happiness Exists in Everyone’s Mind.C. Happiness Can Be Chosen by Us.D. Tips for happiness in Daily Life.EThese days a green building means more than just the color of the paint. Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Green building means “reducing the effect of the building on the land,”Taryn Holowka of the US Green Building Council in Washington, DC, said.According to Holowka, buildings account for 65 percent of total US electricity use. But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of natural resources, such as gasoline, and give off pollution.Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings don’t destroy forests or other wild habitats. Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that put these ideas into action. The Solaire has been called the country’s first green residential high-rise(高层的) building.According to Dettling, “We’ve reduced our energy consumption(消费量) by one-third and our water by 50 percent.The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power. The Solaire also has lights that automatically(自动地) turn off when people leave the room. Plus, the building has lots of windows. This allows people to use the sun for light instead of lamps during the day.72. Green buildings are _______.A. far away from public transportationB. built in the forestsC. earth-friendlyD. often built on developing land73. Green buildings are built near public transportation mainly for the purposeof ______.A. taking buses or subways easilyB. saving natural resourcesC. driving private cars lessD. protecting the environment 74. The Solaire is thought to be “green ” because it ________. A. locates near a forest B. lies close to stores C. reduces energy and water use D. was built with green materials 75. Which of the following is used to cut energy consumption in the Solaire? A. Closing windows as long as possible. B. Reducing the time of using lights. C. Recycling solar power. D. Using natural resources.●●●●●……第二卷：第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

Online banks are sometimes referred to as "brick-to-click" banks, both to tell them from "brick-to-mortar" banks that haven't yet offered online banking, as well as from "virtual"（虚拟）banks that have no physical branches or tellers whatsoever.The challenge for the banking industry has been to design this new service channel in such a way that its customers will readily learn to use and trust it. Most of the large banks can now offer fully safe , fully functional（功能的）online banking for free or for a small cost. As more banks succeed online and more customers use their sites, fully functional online banking will likely become as commonplace as automated teller machines (ATM).Online banking has a lot of advantages. Unlike your corner bank, online banking sites never close; they're at hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week and they're a mouse click away. If you're out of state or even out of the country when a money problem appears, you can log on instantly to your online bank and take care of business. Online bank sites generally carry out and confirm （确认）deals at or quicker than ATM processing speeds. Many online banking sites now offer fashionable tools to help you manage all of your valuable items more effectively．24．The underline word "eliminate" in paragraph 1 means ．A．remove．B．keep．C．raise．D．improve．25．According to the passage, the challenge for the online banking industry is ．A．To offer online banking for freeB．To make online banking attractiveC．To open new services all over the worldD．To take care of business 24 hours a day26．What can we learn from the passage?A．Customers can deal with their banking by a mouse click．B．"Brick-to-click" banks are in fact another kind of physical banks．C．A "brick-to-mortar" bank is no better than a virtual one．D．T he function of a “brick-to-click” bank is as common as that of an ATM．27．What is the best title for the passage?A．Banking of Various Forms．B．Improvement of Banking Industry．C．Functions of the "Brick-to-Click" Bank．D．Development of Online Banking．CShyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people．Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much．Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably．A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions．In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives．Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others．They need faith that they are doing "the right thing"．Shy people are very sensitive to criticism．It makes them feel inferior（自卑）．They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise．A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: "You're just saying that to make me feel good, I know it's not true．”It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful．Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect．It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths．Each one of us has his or her own characteristics．We are interested in our own personal ways．The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life．28．What is the first paragraph mainly about?A．The cause of shynessB．The feelings of shy peopleC．The effect of shyness on peopleD．The questions in the minds of shy people29．According to the passage, what can the writer agree with most?A．Self-awareness is harmful to people．B．Self-awareness is a good characteristic．C．Self-awareness is the cause of unhappiness．D．Self-awareness is a weak point of shy people．30．What is the shy people's reaction to praise?A．They are pleased by it．B．They feel they are worthy of it．C．They are very sensitive to it．D．They feel it is not true．31．According to the passage, shyness can ．A．enable us to understand ourselves betterB．block our chances for a successful lifeC．help us to live up to our full developmentD．have nothing to do with lack of self respectDThe 2016 Olympic women's volleyball tournament wrapped up on Saturday, and China has won the gold medal in a 3-1 victory over Serbia. It's the third time the Chinese women's team has won gold in this event, with victories success in 2004.Serbia actually got off to the better start in the final match. They jumped out to a 12-7 lead in first set and never fully let go of it, eventually cruising to a 25-19 win and a 1-0 advantage. China wasted no time bouncing back, though, taking an 8-4 lead in the second set and eventually running away with a 25-17 victory to even the match at 1-1.The next two sets were much closer, but the Chinese came out on top each time. They grabbed a commanding 19-11 lead in the third set, but they let Serbia creep back into it by narrowing the score down to 22-21. China recovered, though, to take four of the next five points and a 25-22 decision. The fourth set was a seesaw (跷跷板）-- there were 15 ties, and no team took a lead of more than three points at any time. The score eventually knotted at 20, and then again at 21, 22, and 23, before China secured the final two points to win the set and the match.With the victory, Chinese coach "Jenny" Lang Ping became the first person to win Olympic gold as both a coach and a player. Meanwhile, this was the first volleyball medal for Serbia since it began competing as its own independent country in 2008.The bronze medal in the tournament went to the United States , who beat the Netherlands in four sets earlier on Saturday by the score of 25-23 , 25-27 , 25-22 , 25-19. The US , who despite their prominence(显著)on the beach has never won Olympic gold in women's indoor volleyball , reached the bronze medal match after being upset by the Serbians in the semifinals．32．What does the underline phrase "wrapped up" in the Paragraph 1 mean?A．competed．B．completed．C．performed．D．celebrated．33．What happened in this final match?A．China lost the first set．B．China wasted the chance to win in the second set．C．There were 15 ties in the third set．D．Serbia lost the fourth set by the score of 23-25．34．What can we infer from the passage about Lang Ping?A．She has won three Olympic gold medals．B．She became the first person to win Olympic gold as a coach．C．She won an Olympic gold media as a player in 1984．D．She won an Olympic gold media as a coach in 2004．35．Who beat the United States in the semifinals?A．China．B．Italy．C．Netherlands．D．Serbia．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。
