一、阅读理解(共8小题,每小题2分,共16分)AThink about the longest elevator ride that you’ve ever taken. Whether you rose five floors or 100, it probably took less than a few minutes. Now imagine riding in an elevator higher and higher as it climbs for nearly a day. When you reach the top floor, prepare for views that are really out of this world. You’ll be in space!Space elevators might sound like a crazy idea, but they’re something scientists have been working on for decades.Why would anyone want a space elevator? At the moment, riding in a capsule is the only way ordinary people can get to and from space. But those rides are very expensive — about $25 million per person per flight.Researchers are still figuring out the details about how a space elevator might work. One idea is stretching a very long cable — more than 37,000 kilometers — up to space from the earth’s equator (赤道). The location is important: Objects in space above the equator orbit the earth at the same speed that our planet turns. A weight on the end of the cable would stretch it tight. An elevator tied to the cable could use it to climb up and down.The only problem is that besides being long, this cable must also be very strong. Storms, including hurricanes might break it. One way to solve this problem is to stretchthe cable from the moon instead of from the earth. Airplanes designed to climb higher than a typical jet might take off from the earth and link up with the cable, which would be held in place by the pull of gravity from the earth. An elevator car waiting therewould then take riders the rest of the way to the moon. Fueled by solar power, theelevator could transport people and materials without much expense or effort per ride.So, when will you be taking your first space-elevator ride? Probably not for awhile.1.

Which part of a magazine may the article appear in?A. Science and technology.B. Sports.C. Literature.D. Entertainment.BWithin five years, a woolly mammoth (猛犸象)will likely be cloned, according to scientists who have just recovered well-preserved bone marrow (骨髓) in a mammoth bone.Russian scientist Siemyon Grigoriev and his colleagues are now analyzing the marrow, which they obtained from the mammoth, found in Siberian soil. Grigoriev and his team, along with colleagues from Japan, have announced that they will start a joint research project aimed at recreating the enormous mammal, which went extinct around 10,000 years ago. Mammoths used to be a common sight in North America and Eurasia. Many of our distant ancestors probably had regular face-to-face encounters with the elephant-like giants.The key to cloning the woolly mammoth is to replace the nuclei of egg cells from an elephant with those extracted from the mammoth’s cells. Doing this, according to the researchers, can result in embryos with the mammoth’s DNA. That has actually been known for a while.What have been missing are the woolly mammoth’s nuclei with undam aged genes. Scientists have been on a search for such nuclei since the late 1990s. Now it sounds like the missing genes may have been found.In the course, global warming may be responsible for the breakthrough. Warmer temperatures tied to global warming have melted ground in eastern Russia that is almost always permanently frozen. As a result, researchers have found a fair number of well-preserved frozen mammoths there, including the one that produced the bone marrow.Is it such a good idea, however, to clone animals that have long been extinct? For a while there has been some discussion of a real-life Jurassic Park setup containing such animals. Introducing these beasts into existing ecosystems could be like bringing in a potentially invasive species that would try to fill some space presently held by other animals. Even if the cloned animals were contained in special parks, there could still be a risk of spreading.So if the woolly mammoth is successfully cloned sooner rather than later, we’d probably be left with more questions and arguments than answers, at least in the short term.5. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. How to clone a woolly mammothB. The woolly mammoth — an ancient speciesC. The research made by Russian and Japanese scientistsD. A woolly mammoth to be cloned6. Which of the following can be the key factor in cloning a mammoth?A. To find a living mammoth in North America or Eurasia.B. To use nuclei from a mammoth’s egg cells to replace the nuclei in an elephant’s egg cells.C. To find out when and where woolly mammoths lived on the earth.D. To find out if an cient mammoths are distant ancestors of today’s elephants.7. Which of the following best describes the writer’s attitude towards the future of cloning a mammoth?A. Uncertain.B. Indifferent.C. Positive.D. Disappointed.8. From the passage, we can learn that ________.A. some other extinct species have been cloned successfullyB. the mammoth used to be a very common speciesC. the clone of mammoths should be banned by lawD. a woolly mammoth will be successfully cloned this year二、语法填空(共10小题,每小题1.5分,共15分)Cloning has always been with us and is here to stay.

What happened to the flight's 239 passengers and crew after the plane left Kuala Lumpur on Saturday? It is becoming an increasingly desperate question as the days pass.But it's hardly the first mystery of its kind. Here are some half-solved and unsolved airline mysteries that kept investigators clueless for years.Air France Flight 447: An Airbus A330 flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris plunged into the Atlantic Ocean in 2009, killing all 228 passengers and crew on board. But it took a full five days for search and rescue teams to find the wreckage(残骸) and another three years for investigators to report that ice crystals had caused the autopilot to disconnect. The bodies of 74 passengers remain unrecovered.Amelia Earhart: Ace(王牌) pilot Amelia Earhart disappeared in her twin-engine monoplane Electra over the Pacific Ocean in 1937 in an attempt to circumnavigate the globe. No trace of her plane was ever found even after a multi-million dollar search effort, and Earhart was officially declared dead in 1939.Flying Tiger Line Flight 739: A U.S. military flight left Guam in 1962 with more 90 personnel headed for the Philippines, but it never arrived. The pilots never issued a distress call, and 1,300 people involved in the U.S. military search never found any trace of wreckage.British South American Airways: It took more than 50 years to find any trace of the 11 people aboard a 1947 flight that disappeared in the Andes Mountains. A pair of Argentinian rock climbers discovered engine wreckage in the Andes in 1998, and an army expedition later found human remains as well.Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571: A flight headed for Santiago, Chile carrying 45 passengers and crew crashed into the Andes Mountains in poor weather in 1972, killing twelve people. In the meantime, eight were killed in an avalanche(雪崩) that hit the plane's wreckage where they were taking shelter, and the rest stayed alive by eating the flesh of the dead before they were finally found more than two months after disappearing out of the sky.36. What can we learn from Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571?A. 12 people were lost until now.B. 25 people were rescued instantly.C. The rest who stayed alive killed 8 people.D. 8 were killed by a fall of a large mass of snow down a mountainside.37. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Earhart was declared dead by the authorities two years later.B. The bodies of Flight 447 had all been found after three years.C. Two Argentinian rock climbers discovered the dead in the Andes.D. Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 was regarded as the largest air crash.38. The passage has been written to .A. introduce the loss of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370B. explain how to avoid airplane disappearances as a pilotC. tell readers mysterious airplane disappearances in Aviation HistoryD. call on people to protect themselvesBMassachusetts today looks nothing like it did when the first English settlers arrived. Back in the 17th century, forest blanketed the land. Today, roads and towns cover much of the area. But the past is not dead and gone. Just an hour's drive from Boston lies Plymouth Plantation.There you'll experience the 17th century life from the days of the Pilgrims(清教徒移民). You can look in the Pilgrims' homes, watch the way they cook, and ask them about their daily life. You can even help them build houses or work in the fields.When you arrive at Plymouth, you are greeted with "How do you fare?" instead of "How are you?" In this living history plantation, actors portray(展现) real people of 17th century in Plymouth. Each actor has taken the identity of someone from that period.All the actors speak the language of Shakespeare. They're happy to talk about the hardships of their lives or just share the gossip of the day. But don't try to discuss modern topics. They won't understand what you are talking about!In fall, you can enjoy a harvest dinner very similar to the First Thanksgiving. You'll dine with your hands like Pilgrims. You'll find no pepper(胡椒粉) on the table. This expensive spice was used very sparingly(节俭地) in cooking. You'll find no last-course "dessert", either. At the time, people ate sweet dishes right along with the meal.Cranberries were on the menu then and still are today. A short distance from Plymouth, you can visit Cranberry World. At this unique museum, you'll see how cranberries are harvested and can taste different cranberry products.Of course, the First Thanksgiving included not only the Pilgrims, but also their Wampanoag guests. If you want to find out something about the Wampanoag, explore the recreated Wampanoag Homesite. It is just a short walk from Plymouth. Step into the Native American home and enter a different world. Native Americansdressed in 17th century Wampanoag outfits(全套服装) describe how their people lived 400 years ago. Outside, you can help make traditional boat or learn about native plant remedies.Much in Massachusetts has changed since the 17th century. But in Plymouth, the past lives on.39. What do you know about Plymouth Plantation?A. It is a cranberry plantation in Plymouth.B. It is where some old Pilgrims are still living.C. It presents the Pilgrims' lives in the 1600s.D. It is a plantation dating back to the 1700s.40. What can tourists do in Cranberry World?A. Harvest cranberries by yourself.B. Learn how to grow cranberries.C. Taste various cranberry products.D. Visit an old history museum.41. The purpose of the rebuilt of Wampanoag Homesite is to .A. protect Native Americans, the WampanoagB. attract more tourists to stay in PlymouthC. show how the Wampanoag helped the PilgrimsD. keep the 17th century Native Americans' life alive42. What is the best title for the passage?A. An Interesting Journey to PlymouthB. The Life of the PilgrimsC. A Journey to Plymouth's PastD. Life in the 17th CenturyCThe general Allotment Act, passed in 1887 by the United States Congress, was expected to help Native Americans. The Act called for breaking up tribal reservations(部落居留地) and turning them into family-sized farms. Each farm would be given to an individual Native American.The government thought that Native Americans would be better off if they forgot their tribal organizations and their tribal languages. The government expected Native Americans who owned land and farmed for a living to become more like other Americans. But it didn't work out that way. The Native Americans were used to living in tribal groups and sharing with each other. They had always thought of land as something that belonged to the whole tribe, rather than to individuals.With their families scattered on separate farms, many Native Americans were dissatisfied. The land they were given was often poor, and they hadn't the skill to farm it well. Poverty and poor health increased, while the Native American stuck to their old languages and customs. Eventually the government realized that the division of reservation land had made things worse rather than better for Native Americans.The Indian Reorganization Act, passed in 1943, reversed the government's policy. This Act said that all Native American land should be owned by tribes, rather than by individuals. The new Act encouraged tribalorganizations to take responsibility for running tribal affairs. The Act also provided money, which tribes could borrow to buy more land or to start business.Economic conditions have improved for Native Americans. Many tribes run successful manufacturing, mineral leasing, hotels and gambling business. Yet problems of unemployment and poor health still exist. Today Native Americans face a double challenge. They must continue to improve their economic and political position, while at the same time preserving their lands and cultural heritage.43. Why did the government want Native Americans to own land and farm for a living?A. It thought this would make Native Americans more like other Americans.B. It wanted to see if individual Native Americans would drop out of school.C. It wanted to see whether matters could become worse on the reservation.D. It thought all the land and farm should belong to Native Americans.44. Though it is not directly stated, the article suggests that .A. most people who owned land and farmed it were Native AmericansB. Native Americans were used to living on separate farmsC. the government did not quite understand Native American waysD. the customs of the Native Americans were harmful and uncivilized45. On the whole, the article tells us about .A. the good land that was given to Native AmericansB. the government's effort to help that didn't work outC. helping Native Americans on their reservationsD. breaking away from old customs of Native Americans46. Which statement does this article lead you to believe?A. The government wanted to break up family farms.B. Native Americans are very hard to deal with.C. New customs are always better than old ones.D. Old customs usually influence modern life.DSure, it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.But really, there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, "learning bursts right open," says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column called “Teacher Says” for the Washington Post Newspaper.In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems , such as problems with learning or school issues, such as bullying(欺负人).As a kid in a primary or middle school, you're at a wonderful stage in your life. You're like a sponge(海绵), able to soak up lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you're able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and in most cases, is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you put it together. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place—to teach!Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive(敏感的) to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren't going well, they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.47. In the passage, the author mainly talks about .A. how to get along well with teachersB. the importance of a good relation with teachersC. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachersD. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant48. "learning bursts right open" in the third paragraph really means .A. learning becomes easier for you at onceB. you find an opening to learningC. there'll be more problems with learningD. there'll be no problems with learning49. According to the passage, which of the following offers the best reasoning?A. You are getting on well with your teachers, so you have more questions than others.B. You find it comfortable to ask questions, so you can build a good relationship with teachers.C. You have a good relationship with your teacher, so you can turn to him/her when in trouble.D. You are in trouble, so you can build a good relationship with teachers.50. Which of the comments in FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?A. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn't like to accept their teaching.B. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.C. Though few, there are still some students who can learn even if they don't like the teacher.D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.四、短文7选5(5选5等)(共5小题;共10分)A Brief History of SlaveryIt is said that the first known slaves lived more than five thousand years ago in the Sumerian society of what is now Iraq. 51. It expanded as trade and industry increased. This increase created a demand for the labor force to produce goods for export. Slaves did most of the work. Most ancient people thought of slavery as a natural condition that could happen to anyone at any time.52. Sugar was one of these things. Italians set up large sugar farms around the twelfth century. They used slaves from Russia and other parts of Europe to do the work. By the year of thirteen hundred, African blacks had begun to replace the Russian slaves. They were bought or caught from North African Arabs, who used them as slaves for years.By the 1500s, Spain and Portugal got American colonies(殖民地). The Europeans forced native Indians to work in large farms and mines in the colonies. 53. So the Spanish and the Portuguese began to bring in people from West Africa as slaves. France, Britain and the Netherlands did the same in their American colonies.54. That was not true in the early years of the American nation. Many Americans thought slavery was necessary. Yet owning slaves was common among rich people in the early 1700s.55. One example is the famous American diplomat (外交家), inventor and businessman Benjamin Franklin. He owned slaves for thirty years and sold them at his general store. But his ideas about slavery changed during his long life. Benjamin Franklin started the first schools to teach blacks and later argued for their freedom.A. Today, most people in the world see slavery as unfair.B. Most of the Indians died from European diseases and poor treatment.C. People who were rich enough to own many slaves became leaders in their local areas.D. In later times, slaves provided the labor needed to produce products that were in demand.E. Many of the leaders in the colonies who fought for American independence owned slaves.F. Slavery also existed among people in China, India, Africa, the Middle East and the Americas.G. By 1750, almost twenty-five percent of the total number of people in the American colonies were black slaves.五、作文(共1小题;共25分)56. 假设你是某旅行社的一名导游,请根据表格内容用英语向外宾介绍海南岛的基本情况。
