It is one of the longest migrations of any mammal.All day, all summer long, in the cold waters near Alaska, gray whales eat and eat.Instead of teeth, gray whales have baleen they use to get food from ocean water. They get big mouthfuls of muck from the ocean floor, then push that muck right back out through their baleen. The mucky water flows through, but tiny animals get trapped in the baleen and licked up.When the water starts to freeze, the whales begin their long trip south. They swim night and day, without stopping to eat or rest. During the long journey, migrating whales may push their heads out of the water to see where they are. Two months later, the whales reach Mexico. Babies are born here in warm, shallow waters called lagoons. Ocean lagoons have no food for the adults, but the babies are safer here than in the open seas. All winter, the babies grow big and strong.In spring first the dads and teenagers leave the lagoons, then the moms with babies. Migrating gray whales swim close to shore, especially moms with babies. The ice is melting up north, and it’s time for the hungry whales to make the long journey back to their summer feeding grounds.56. The underlined phrase “licked up” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.A. given upB. ended upC. broken upD. eaten up57. During their long journey to Mexico, gray whales ________.A. always swim under the oceanB. find food to supply their energyC. face the colder and cold waterD. travel to the lagoons without a break58. Where do mother gray whales give birth?A. In warm shallow waters near Mexico.B. Off the coast of North America.C. In the open seas near Mexico.D. In cold waters near Alaska.59. Which of the following is not mentioned about gray whales in the passage?A. How long they live.B. How they get their food.C. When they get back to Alaska.D. How long they spend traveling to Mexico.Ｂ.Many people say pennies are not worth saving. After all, a penny is only worth a cent. But one unusual penny turned out to be worth a lot more when a coin collector paid $ 1.7 million for it earlier this month.The coin is one of a kind. It is the only penny that the Denver mint made out of copper, instead of steal, in 1943. Because it is unique, it is also very valuable. No penny has ever sold for so much money.The Changing PennyThe Lincoln penny first appeared in 1900. For 34 years, the one-cent coin was made out of copper. Then in 1943, the penny changed. World War II was going on, and copper was needed for equipment. So for one year, pennies were made out of steel instead. At least most of them were.Only a few coins were made out of unused copper. There are three main mints, or places where coins are made, in the United States. Of the known copper pennies from 1943, twelve were made in the Philadelphia mint, and five were made in the San Francisco mint. Only one was made in the Denver mint.Nobody knows for sure why a copper penny was made at the Denver mint in 1943, coin dealer Andy Skrabalak told Time for kids. “There’s a rumor that a mint employee made the coin in the middle of the night,” he said.A Special SetThe coin collector who bought the $1.7 million penny wants to remain unknown. But the reason for the trade is known. He already had two copper pennies from 1943 --- one from the San Francisco mint and one from the Philadelphia mint. To complete the set, he needed the Denver penny. The three coins will go on display at a coin exhibition in Tampa, Florida.The collector who sold the penny is also keeping his name a secret. It took four years to convince him to give up the rare coin. Now that he has finally sold it, he is donating all of the money to charity.60. Why is the Lincoln penny worth over one million dollars?A. Because it has a history of 34 years.B. Because it was made out of a rare material.C. Because it was made on one night of 1943 by the Denver mint.D. Because it was the only coin the Denver mint made out of copper in 1943.61. Before the Lincoln penny was sold, people thought one-cent coins _________.A. were worth collecting for selling laterB. were surely valuable if not made out of steelC. wouldn’t be sold for large amounts of moneyD. were only useful for some coin museums62. At least how many copper coins were made in 1943?A. Five.B. Twelve.C. Seventeen.D. Eighteen.63. What can we learn about the collector who sold the penny?A. He already had two copper pennies from 1943.B. He wanted to complete the set of copper pennies.C. He didn’t want to sell his penny in the beginning.D. He was a well-known coin dealer in Tampa, Horida.Ｃ.Tips for avoiding traffic jams:The radio has more than just music. Check the local news station for the latest traffic report. Or go online and check traffic cameras before you set out. If there is a jam, you’ll be prepared and can try another route.Take the road less traveled. Although highways may be the most direct route, back roads can be much less crowded, which can save you from the frustration of the stop-and-go traffic.Rush hour isn’t just a lovely nickname. It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours, but they’re still called “rush hour” for a reason --- everyone’s on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere. Treat rush hour like bad weather ---- if you don’t have to go anywhere, stay off the roads.Trips for those unavoidable traffic jams:Don’t break the law. You’ve gone 30 feet in 30 minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders. Don’t behave like them. Not only is this illegal, but also there’s a good chance they’ll get caught or cause even more problems.Pay extra attention to zig-zaggers. When some people are anxious, they may start changing lanes every 5 seconds or cut you off. Keep checking your windows and mirrors for these lane changers.Look for an escape. If it is possible to exit the road safely, do it. Use a GPS unit, and you can change your route mid-trip if needed.Be courteous. Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident. Allow people in from a lane that is ending. Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident.64. According to the passage, it is wrong to ________.A. get traffic news before leavingB. choose back roadsC. avoid rush hoursD. change lanes frequently65. What should we do when there are zig-zaggers?A. Keep checking the mirrors.B. Stop and let them go first.C. Sound the horn loudly. C. Drive quickly to keep them out.66. When there is a traffic jam, we should ___________.A. get off the car and walk aroundB. use the shoulders as lanesC. change the route if possibleD. drive back immediately67. What does the underlined word “courteous” in the last paragraph mean?A. Energetic.B. Polite.C. Careful.D. Honest.假如你住在一个涉外小区。

A similar tragedy took place in the 19th-century Russia. And the rebuilding effort of the Russians might offer some inspiration to the French.Standing in the heart of the Russian capital, with 60,000 square meters of floor space and 1,500 rooms, the Winter Palace was among the world's grandest buildings. On Dec. 17, 1837, a fire broke out in the Winter Palace. By the morning of Dec. 19, only the structure's framework remained.For the czar (沙皇), the fire presented a political challenge. Fearing that Russia's enemies would cast the fire as a blow to the czarist order, the czar's supporters quickly worked together to shape the description of the fire in Russia and abroad. They wanted the country to appear united. And they certainly didn't want despair to become the story.The first full account of the fire was written in French by the poet Petr Viazemskii. A Russian translation appeared two months later. That text and others painted a highly idealized picture of the response to the tragedy. The accounts noted that the czar forcefully directed the fire's containment(控制). Soldiers were selfless to save the palace. The Russian people felt the loss just as deeply as the czar.To erase the shame of the fire, the czar set a nearly impossible goal:rebuild the palace within 15 months, and he ordered that the rebuilt palace look exactly as it had before. Thousands of workers labored on the construction site. They made rapid progress. On March 25, 1839, the czar celebrated the rebirth of the Winter Palace.Outwardly identical to the old version, the new palace featured more iron and brick in its structures—and less wood. It was far less fire-prone(有火灾危险的) than the original.Notre Dame hasn't experienced the same level of destruction as the Winter Palace. If the Russian phoenix of 1839 is any indication, there is hope that a renewed Notre Dame will once again grace (为……增色) thebanks of the Seine(塞纳河).4.What do we know about the fire in the Winter Palace?A.It burnt down 60,000 rooms.B.It lasted more than 24 hours.C.It was set by Russia's enemies.D.It completely destroyed the palace.5.Why did the czar decide to rebuild the palace in a short time?A.To secure his power.B.To challenge his enemies.C.To unite French people.D.To celebrate his birthday.6.What did Viazemskii and others stress in their accounts?A.The scene of the fire.B.The selflessness of the czar.C.The Russians' joint effort to fight the fire.D.The ideal result achieved by the Russians.7.What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?A.To describe a fire at the Winter Palace.B.To praise the renewal of the Winter Palace.C.To express sympathy for the Notre Dame.D.To inspire confidence in rebuilding the Notre Dame.CTower Bridge is a bascule bridge in London, over the River Thames. It is close to the Tower of London, which gives it its name. It is sometimes incorrectly referred to as London Bridge, which is the next bridge upstream (在上游). It is one of five London bridges now owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates.In the second half of the nineteenth century, increased commercial (贸易的) development in the East End of London led to a requirement for a new river crossing downstream of London Bridge. A Special Bridge or Subway Committee was formed in 1876 to find a solution to the river crossing problem. It opened the design of the crossing to public competition. Over 50 designs were received. The judgment of the designs was surrounded by argument, and it wasn't until 1884 that a design sent by Horace Jones was sanctioned.Construction of the bridge started in 1886 and took about 8 years' hard work of 432 construction workers. Over 70,000 tons of concrete were sunk into the river bed to support the construction. Over 11,000 tons of steel provided the framework (框架) for the towers and walkways. Horace Jones died in 1887, and another engineer took over the project. The bridge was opened in 1894.The bridge sits almost directly above the Tower Subway, the world's first underground tube railway (1870), which, until the bridge was opened,was the shortest way to cross the River Thames. A computer system was installed (安装) in 2000 to control the raising and lowering of the bascule. However, this has proved less reliable than expected, resulting in the bridge being stuck in the open or closed position on a number of occasions.8.What does Paragraph 1 say about Tower Bridge?A.It's named after a famous person.B.It's another name for London Bridge.C.It's not far from the Tower of London.D.It's the only bridge over the River Thames.9.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “sanctioned” in Paragraph 2?A.Tried.B.Received.C.Discovered.D.Passed.10.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A.The history of Tower Bridge.B.The building of Tower Bridge.C.The influence of Tower Bridge.D.The importance of Tower Bridge.11.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Many breakdowns have happened to Tower Bridge.B.The computer system works better than expected.C.The underground tube railway has a history of less than 20 years.D.The Tower Subway is the shortest way to cross the River Thames.DNamed “America's Finest City” due to its hospitality, beauty and ideal climate, San Diego is located on the border with Mexico. The residents are so active outdoors that it is called “Sportstown, the U.S.A.” San Diego's 70 miles of beaches are a heaven for swimmers, surfers, divers, boaters and sunbathers. Another favourite outside activity is golf. With 100 courses (about 50 of them public), San Diego is a golfer's paradise.Many San Diego residents came here first as tourists who were attracted by San Diego's sunny beaches, nearby mountains and deserts, plus the cultural delights of any big city. The world-famous San Diego Zoo, Sea World, Wild Animal Park, museums, concerts and other attractions bring visitors from around the world.The zoo is home to some 4,000 animals, including the world's largest collection of parrots. Animals are displayed in natural settings, and there is a petting zoo for children. By contrast, the Wild Animal Park is a wildlife preserve with an area of over 2,000 acres and more than 3,000 free-roaming(漫步) animals in natural habitats.In addition to housing the zoo, Balboa Park is home to several museums and attractions, including an aerospace museum, an art andhistory museum, the Old Globe Theatre, science museums and even a railroad museum. Free concerts are offered frequently. Another popular attraction is Sea World, a 150-acre marine park.San Diego's varied attractions, as well as its business climate, offer many opportunities for students to explore the local culture, meet people from around the world, and gain business experience. At San Diego State University, for example, students in the American Language Institute's study tour program learn English both in the classroom and while sightseeing.12.The residents of San Diego probably like to .A.have sports outdoorsB.travel to other placesC.stay at homeD.stay outdoors all day13.Many San Diego residents came to settle down in San Diego because .A.it was more convenient to live thereB.they were attracted by its beauty and cultureC.they could make money from tourism thereD.it was a quiet place to enjoy themselves14.Which of the following most attracts children?A.The parrots.B.The art and history museum.C.The petting zoo.D.The Old Globe Theatre.15.We can infer from the last paragraph that .A.San Diego is a good place for students to gain practical experienceB.San Diego State University is most famous for language studiesC.San Diego is not a good place to do businessD.students at San Diego State University don't have to work hard第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It's a city that is constantly developing. Melbourne people, like all Australians, enjoy travelling and their increasing experience of other countries means local tastes have changed. The city has become much more cosmopolitan (世界性的).Someone told me that in Melbourne you can sample the cuisines of seventy-five different countries; I haven't managed to eat my way through them all, but it's a wonderful challenge. And besides the top-class restaurants, you mustn't miss Melbourne's café culture and wonderful beachside places at St Kilda.If you enjoy your food, you will love exploring local produce markets. One I really like is the Queen Victoria Market on the corner of Victoria and Elizabeth Streets, which sells a huge variety of fruit and vegetables.My friend joined me for my most recent trip home. It was fun showing him all the familiar landmarks, but also going to places I've never been before. From Melbourne, we took the Great Ocean Road, a 150-mile highway that is a scenic delight. We passed through an area that includes the world-famous Twelve Apostles, the Otways rainforest and Bells Beach along with resort (度假胜地) towns such as Torquay and Apollo Bay.We've still got a pretty extensive “to do” list, including a trip to Queensland and the Barrier Reef. And although I've been to Hayman Island a couple of times, I'd like to get to know some of the more special resort islands that can be reached only by private boat or helicopter.The flight to Australia is a long one but perfectly comfortable if you follow a routine like mine. I get on board and immediately change into my flight pyjamas (睡衣) — one day I'm going to work out how to accessorise them with fashion items, but until then I just look like someone wearing pyjamas!I just love to travel. It's an Aussie thing: as a people we are up for jumping on a plane and going off to explore. I can't wait to see where I'll go next.24. What does the author think is “a wonderful challenge”?A. Tasting all the foods of different countries in Melbourne.B. Eating at all Melbourne's top-class restaurants.C. Travelling to other countries like an Australian.D. Exploring Australia's produce markets.25. What could the author's friend see when he took the Great Ocean Road?A. Torquay and Hayman Island.B. Bells Beach and Twelve Apostles.C. The Barrier Reef and Otways rainforest.D. Queen Victoria Market and Apollo Bay.26. What does the author hope to do?A. Find more rainforests.B. Buy a private boat.C. Go to Hayman Island again.D. Journey to Queensland.27. What does the author suggest doing when taking a long flight?A. Wearing pyjamas.B. Having fresh fruits.C. Making fashion accessories.D. Sleeping all the way through.CThe night is completely black. But the darkness of a hill inside the crater of Indonesia's Kawah Ijen Volcano is lit up like a holiday light show. Tourists gather at the volcano to see what look like glowing blue rivers of lava. But they aren't rivers of lava. They're rivers of glowing sulfur (硫磺).Glowing red lava flowing from an erupting volcano isn't unusual. Glowing sulfur is. Hot, sulfur-rich gases escape constantly from fumaroles (喷气孔) in Kawah Ijen's crater. Scientists were told that sulfur miners on the volcano sometimes use torches to light the sulfur. The blue flames make Kawah Ijen popular with tourists, who watch from a safe distance.Sulfur is common in volcanic gas, and it can be used to produce many things. But it's so plentiful in Kawah Ijen's crater that miners make a dangerous daily journey into the crater to collect sulf ur from a fumarole. “The local people pipe the gases from the fumarole through pipes,” says scientist John Pallister. He has walked into the crater himself, wearing a gas mask for protection against the clouds of acid that rise from the lake. “They use water from a spring to cool the pipes,” he says. This causes gases to change into liquid sulfur. The sulfur then cools and hardens into rock. Using this method, miners get more usable rock faster than if they just collect pieces.Miners face another hazard: a huge eruption. Kawah Ijen's last big eruption was almost 200 years ago, but the volcano is still active. Indonesian scientists want to find a way to predict a big eruption in time to keep everyone safe. But the deep acid lake makes it difficult to pick up the usual signals that warn of a coming volcanic eruption.For example, certain gases are usually richer right before an eruption. But in this lake, those gases disappear into the deep water before they can register on the geologists' equipment.As scientists search for ways to predict this unusual volcano's behavior, Kawah Ijen's blue fires continue to attract audiences who appreciate the volcano's amazing glow.28. What makes Kawah Ijen attractive to tourists?A. Its special outline.B. Its blue fire.C. Its glowing red lava.D. Its delightful scene in daylight.29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. The daily life of local miners.B. The method of getting sulfur effectively.C. The protection provided for Kawah Ijen.D. The process of researching the inner part of the crater.30. What does the underlined word “hazard” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Danger.B. Decision.C. Direction.D. Disappointment.31. What does the example in paragraph 5 show?A. The advantage of scientists' equipment.B. The working rules of scientists' research.C. The difficulty of predicting a big eruption.D. The necessity of patience in studying an eruption.DGesturing with the hands while speaking is a common human behavior, but no one knows why we do it. Now, some researchers fromthe University of Connecticut (UConn) report that gesturing adds emphasis to speech — but not in the way researchers had thought.Gesturing while speaking is common around the world. Many researchers believe that gesturing is either done to emphasize important points, or to explain specific ideas. But there are other possibilities. For example, it could be that gesturing, by changing the size and shape of the chest, lungs and vocal muscles, affects the sound of a person's speech.A team of UConn researchers decided to test whether this idea was true. The team had volunteers move their dominant hand as if they were cutting wood, while continuously saying “a” as in “cinema.” They were instructed to stabilize ( 使……稳定) the “a” sound, trying to make sure that it remained unchanged.Despite those instructions, when the team played recordings to other people, they found the listeners could recognize the changes in the speaker's voice. The listeners said they were aware that the changes were caused by the speaker's gestures. When the listeners were asked to move their arms to the changes, their movements matched perfectly with those of the original speaker.Because of the way the human body is constructed, hand movements influence the chest and throat muscles. Gestures are tightly tied to amplitude (振幅). Rather than just using your chest muscles to produce airflow for speech, moving your arms while you speak can add acoustic (声音的) emphasis. And you can hear someone's movements, even when they're trying not to let you.“Some language researchers say that they want language to be all about communicating the contents of your mind, rather than the state of your body, or how body movements affect language acoustically. But we think that gestures are allowing the sound to carry additional information about bodily movements. It's information of another kind,” says James Dixon, one of the UConn researchers.32. What does the UConn researchers' study show?A. Gestures can add acoustic emphasis.B. People's dominant hand can explain specific ideas.C. Gesturing while speaking proves to be common.D. Amplitude plays a key role in stressing important points.33. What were the participants required to do during the experiment?A. They must keep a sound steady.B. They must cut wood using a hand.C. They must make some different gestures.D. They must repeat a word several times.34. What did the research team find out about the listeners?A. They normally responded with different gestures.B. They could hear the speaker's gestures.C. They knew little about the speaker's changes.D. They were unaware of the acoustic emphasis.35. How might some language researchers look at the new study finding according to James Dixon?A. They might accept it unwillingly.B. They might be curious about it.C. They might be uncertain of it.D. They might disagree with it.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It is one of the longest migrations of any mammal.All day, all summer long, in the cold waters near Alaska, gray whales eat and eat.Instead of teeth, gray whales have baleen they use to get food from ocean water. They get big mouthfuls of muck from the ocean floor, then push that muck right back out through their baleen. The mucky water flows through, but tiny animals get trapped in the baleen and licked up.When the water starts to freeze, the whales begin their long trip south. They swim night and day, without stopping to eat or rest. During the long journey, migrating whales may push their heads out of the water to see where they are. Two months later, the whales reach Mexico. Babies are born here in warm, shallow waters called lagoons. Ocean lagoons have no food for the adults, but the babies are safer here than in the open seas. All winter, the babies grow big and strong.In spring first the dads and teenagers leave the lagoons, then the moms with babies. Migrating gray whales swim close to shore, especially moms with babies. The ice is melting up north, and it’s time for the hungry whales to make the long journey back to their summer feeding grounds.56. The underlined phrase “licked up” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.A. given upB. ended upC. broken upD. eaten up57. During their long journey to Mexico, gray whales ________.A. always swim under the oceanB. find food to supply their energyC. face the colder and cold waterD. travel to the lagoons without a break58. Where do mother gray whales give birth?A. In warm shallow waters near Mexico.B. Off the coast of North America.C. In the open seas near Mexico.D. In cold waters near Alaska.59. Which of the following is not mentioned about gray whales in the passage?A. How long they live.B. How they get their food.C. When they get back to Alaska.D. How long they spend traveling to Mexico.Ｂ.Many people say pennies are not worth saving. After all, a penny is only worth a cent. But one unusual penny turned out to be worth a lot more when a coin collector paid $ 1.7 million for it earlier this month.The coin is one of a kind. It is the only penny that the Denver mint made out of copper, instead of steal, in 1943. Because it is unique, it is also very valuable. No penny has ever sold for so much money.The Changing PennyThe Lincoln penny first appeared in 1900. For 34 years, the one-cent coin was made out of copper. Then in 1943, the penny changed. World War II was going on, and copper was needed for equipment. So for one year, pennies were made out of steel instead. At least most of them were.Only a few coins were made out of unused copper. There are three main mints, or places where coins are made, in the United States. Of the known copper pennies from 1943, twelve were made in the Philadelphia mint, and five were made in the San Francisco mint. Only one was made in the Denver mint.Nobody knows for sure why a copper penny was made at the Denver mint in 1943, coin dealer Andy Skrabalak told Time for kids. “There’s a rumor that a mint employee made the coin in the middle of the night,” he said.A Special SetThe coin collector who bought the $1.7 million penny wants to remain unknown. But the reason for the trade is known. He already had two copper pennies from 1943 --- one from the San Francisco mint and one from the Philadelphia mint. To complete the set, he needed the Denver penny. The three coins will go on display at a coin exhibition in Tampa, Florida.The collector who sold the penny is also keeping his name a secret. It took four years to convince him to give up the rare coin. Now that he has finally sold it, he is donating all of the money to charity.60. Why is the Lincoln penny worth over one million dollars?A. Because it has a history of 34 years.B. Because it was made out of a rare material.C. Because it was made on one night of 1943 by the Denver mint.D. Because it was the only coin the Denver mint made out of copper in 1943.61. Before the Lincoln penny was sold, people thought one-cent coins _________.A. were worth collecting for selling laterB. were surely valuable if not made out of steelC. wouldn’t be sold for large amounts of moneyD. were only useful for some coin museums62. At least how many copper coins were made in 1943?A. Five.B. Twelve.C. Seventeen.D. Eighteen.63. What can we learn about the collector who sold the penny?A. He already had two copper pennies from 1943.B. He wanted to complete the set of copper pennies.C. He didn’t want to sell his penny in the beginning.D. He was a well-known coin dealer in Tampa, Horida.Ｃ.Tips for avoiding traffic jams:The radio has more than just music. Check the local news station for the latest traffic report. Or go online and check traffic cameras before you set out. If there is a jam, you’ll be prepared and can try another route.Take the road less traveled. Although highways may be the most direct route, back roads can be much less crowded, which can save you from the frustration of the stop-and-go traffic.Rush hour isn’t just a lovely nickname. It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours, but they’re still called “rush hour” for a reason --- everyone’s on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere. Treat rush hour like bad weather ---- if you don’t have to go anywhere, stay off the roads.Trips for those unavoidable traffic jams:Don’t break the law. You’ve gone 30 feet in 30 minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders. Don’t behave like them. Not only is this illegal, but also there’s a good chance they’ll get caught or cause even more problems.Pay extra attention to zig-zaggers. When some people are anxious, they may start changing lanes every 5 seconds or cut you off. Keep checking your windows and mirrors for these lane changers.Look for an escape. If it is possible to exit the road safely, do it. Use a GPS unit, and you can change your route mid-trip if needed.Be courteous. Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident. Allow people in from a lane that is ending. Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident.64. According to the passage, it is wrong to ________.A. get traffic news before leavingB. choose back roadsC. avoid rush hoursD. change lanes frequently65. What should we do when there are zig-zaggers?A. Keep checking the mirrors.B. Stop and let them go first.C. Sound the horn loudly. C. Drive quickly to keep them out.66. When there is a traffic jam, we should ___________.A. get off the car and walk aroundB. use the shoulders as lanesC. change the route if possibleD. drive back immediately67. What does the underlined word “courteous” in the last paragraph mean?A. Energetic.B. Polite.C. Careful.D. Honest.假如你住在一个涉外小区。
