Two years ago, the estimated decline since 1970 stood at 68%, and four years ago, it was under 60%.Many scientists believe we are living through the sixth mass extinction-the largest loss of life on Earth since the time of the dinosaurs-and that it as being driven by humans. The report’s 89 authors urged world leaders to reach an ambitious agreement at the Cop 15 biodiversity summit in Canada this December and to cut carbon emissions to limit global heating to below 1. 5 C this decade to stop to serious destruction of nature.Latin America and the Caribbean have seen the steepest declines in average wildlifepopulation size, with a 94% drop in 48 years. Africa had the second largest fall at 66%, followed by Asia and the Pacific with 55% and North America at 20%. Europe and Central Asia experienced an 18% fall. The total loss is akin to the human population of Europe, the Americas, Africa, Oceania and China disappearing, according to the report.Land use change is still the leading driver of biodiversity loss across the planet. Robin Freeman, head of one unit at Zoological Society of London’s, said it was clear humanity is eroding the very foundations of life, and argent action is needed. He mentioned, “It’s not just about conservation, it’s about changing production and consumption-and the only way we are going to be able to make laws or call for that is to have these clear measurable targets that ask for recovery of abundance, reduction of extinction risk and the ending of extinctions at Cop 15 in December.”11.What do the data in paragraph 1 show?A.The sixth mass extinction of forests is going down.B.The industrial pollution is becoming more widespread.C.The consumption level is beyond the limits of the earth.D.The decline rate of wildlife populations is beyond the estimation.12.What does the underlined word “akin” mean in paragraph 3?A.Similar.B.Different.C.Contrary.D.Normal. 13.What can we learn from Robin Freeman’s words in paragraph 4?A.Stable land use can prevent the loss of wildlife populations.B.Cop 15 should take the responsibility for biodiversity reduction.C.Making laws for recovery of wildlife abundance seems impossible.D.Changing ways of production and consumption matters in protection.14.What is the best title of the passage?A.Wildlife Faces Great Challenges to SurviveB.All Continents Suffer from Wildlife DisappearanceC.Human Activities Contribute to Wildlife’s Habitat LossD.Animal Numbers Decrease by an Average of 69%under 5 DecadesScientists have long known that a crow (乌鸦)native to New Caledonia is able to use tools. The birds use them to remove food from deep holes. Now, American researchers have discovered a second species of crow with the same ability. They reported on their experimentswith Alala crows, which are from the Hawaiian Islands.In the experiment, the researchers placed pieces of food in holes inside the wood. The holes were too deep for the crows to reach with their beaks(鸟喙). But, by using small pieces of wood held in their beaks, Alala crows quickly got the food. They used small objects as tools, sometimes changing them by shortening too-long sticks. They also made tools from plant materials.“The crows use their beaks as people use thumbs on their hands. Tool use is rare in the animal kingdom. ” said Chritian Rutz of University of St. Andrews. “Current evidence strongly suggests that tool use is part of the species’ natural behavioral pattern(行为模式). These birds had no special training in the study, yet most of them were skilled at handling stick tools. ”Bird experts claim finding out that the crows use tools is important discovery. “It makes us rethink how to look at the whole tool-use idea now and encourages us to go out and look for things that we may have ignored before. ”All the Alala crows left in the world live in Hawaii. There were less than 20 Alalas left in the late 1990s when scientists decided to bring them into a protected area. Now, it is reported that there are over 100 birds living there. Scientists plan to release a small number of the birds back into the wild later.15.What are the findings of American researchers?A.Alala crows can also use tools.B.It’s difficult for birds to look for food.C.New Caledonia is home to some crows.D.The Hawaiian Islands are full of rare birds.16.What can we learn from the study?A.The holes were very big and wide.B.Alala crows could only use short sticks.C.Alala crows got the food by working together.D.Alala crows would deal with tools if necessary.17.What do Chritian Rutz’s words mean?A.Using tools comes naturally to Alala crows.B.Using stick tools is not easy for Alala crows.C.Alala crows’ beaks look like people’s hands.D.Alala crows won’t use tools without being trained.18.What do scientists plan to do with Alala crows?A.Move all of them out of Hawaii.B.Increase the population of them. C.Set some of them free in nature.D.Build more protected areas for them.Faced with greater competition, movie theaters have tried various experiments to upgrade the cinematic experience, including bigger and brighter screens and shaking seats. But a major challenge for exhibitors is to make the experience more attractive without depending on tricks.One local theater, Regal L. A.Live, is experimenting with an idea that managers say strikes the right balance between so-called upgrade and sensory overload. The downtown L. A.theater plans to introduce Immersive Cinema Experience known as ICE technology in one of its auditoriums (礼堂) this fall.The 190-seat auditorium will feature a traditional screen at the front, like any other theater. But the audience will also have five LED screens on both sides that will flood moviegoers’ peripheral (周边的) vision with lights and colors based on what’s playing on the main screen. For example, if you’re watching a scene that takes place in the African desert, the LED might shower the audience with enveloping colors of sky-blue, sun-like yellow sand. But importantly, viewers won’t have to turn their necks to catch any additional onscreen action. “When you’re watching the movie, you actually feel very absorbed in the film,” said Shelby Russell, a manager at L. A.Live. “It strengthens the mood of each of the scenes.”Regal L. A.Live will be the first U.S theater to employ the technology. Managers did not say how much tickets would cost, but like other previous formats such as Imax, they will be more expensive than standard admission.Other cinemas have tried to introduce some other formats as theaters face growing threats from popular media. Results have been mixed, though. 4DX, which uses seat movements, water and scent effects, operates in more than 620 theaters around the world. On the other hand, Barco Escape, a once promising idea for a three-screen theatrical design, failed to catch on. Shelby said the success of ICE theaters in France, where it competes with Imax, indicated well for its U.S. expansion. “The problem with other formats is that they distract the moviegoer from the film,” Shelby said. “ICE appeals to a very large audience.”19.What leads cinemas to experiment with new technology?A.Expensive admission.B.Growing competition.C.Mixed results of previous formats.D.The increasing number of moviegoers. 20.What does ICE use to upgrade cinematic experience?A.Brighter colors.B.Shaking seats.C.Multiple screens.D.Sweet-scented effects.21.How do the audience feel when watching films in an ICE cinema?A.Absorbed in the movie.B.Distracted from the screens. C.Overloaded with excitement.D.Tired from turning their necks. 22.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Imax failed to catch on in France.B.ICE looks promising in the U.S. C.Barco Escape is a popular design.D.The use of 4DX is on the decline.In the Shanghai Grand Theatre, a fashionable, mainly young audience applauds enthusiastically as Guo Yong takes center stage. He holds a large bushy tree branch with leaves. Blowing on one of the leaves, he produces a sound like the singing of birds as he plays a traditional Buyi folk song. Some other musicians are also playing the traditional instruments from various ethnic groups in China.It's the first time such music has ever been performed in the Shanghai Grand Theatre. But all this is the efforts of Zhu Zheqin, a Cantonese singer, who has made it her mission to help preserve China's traditional ethnic music.Several years ago, after being appointed as United Nations Development Program Goodwill Ambassador, Zhu traveled through some of China's remotest regions in an attempt to document the traditional music of various minority groups. In the course of the otherfour-month trip, she recorded more than a thousand songs. But she noticed that many of the best musicians were old, and some of the music was at risk of dying out."I was shocked by the beauty of what I heard—it was so good," she says.” But it needed support. I hope to let people see the beauty of these things in the contemporary times. "So Zhu decided to introduce some of the musicians to a wider audience. By doing this, she hopes to rekindle(重新激起)the interest of the younger generation. " Young people don't like this music much; they prefer pop music and love songs. They think these songs are something their grandma sings. This kind of repackaging gives young people a new door into their heritage. ".Zhu believes China needs to look again at its own roots." China today is basically all Western art; in our conservatories Western classical music is the top," she says. "For China to really contribute to the world, we need to go on our own path. So what can represent China today?" The answer, she suggests, is to move from " made in China" to " created in China". 23.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.The audience is all young people.B.Guo Yong is playing the Buyi folk music.C.Guo Yong is the only minority performer on the stage.D.Tree branches make good musical instruments.24.What can we know about Zhu Zheqin?A.She teaches music in a conservatory.B.She is helping preserve Chinese ethnic music.C.She works as an official in the United Nations.D.She's created all the music for the concert held in Shanghai Grand Theatre.25.What is Zhu Zheqin's idea about Chinese traditional music?A.It is completely out of date.B.Only old musicians play it well.C.It needs changes to attract young people.D.It is quickly dying out.26.What does Zhu Zheqin mean in the last paragraph?A.The traditional music should be repackaged.B.Chinese conservatories shouldn't teach Western music.C.China has contributed a lot to Western art.D.Only the things created in China can be symbols of China.三、七选五What parents should know about childhood cancer.Childhood cancer takes up less than 1% of total cases of cancer. However, the diagnosis of childhood cancer can be wrenching(痛苦的)for families.____27____ In fact, today more than 80% of kids with childhood cancer live at least five years or more, according to the American Cancer Society. Most are long-term survivors.____28____ At the same time, cancer remains the leading disease-related cause of kids’ deaths in kids one to nineteen years old. ____29____ Children’s bodies are frequently more resilient(能复原的)in the face of aggressive treatment, like chemotherapy(化疗). They are able to recover sometimes better than adults. The same cancer-fighting therapies, however, have a harmful impact on a child’s developing brain and body.____30____ Although most children with cancer may be cured, families also have to proceed with caution and consider the long-term impact of care. There is a wide range of health problems that can occur in the months or years after treatment. They can range from problems with brain development, cognitive impairment(认知缺陷)and memory loss, to secondary cancers caused by exposure to radiation used to treat childhood cancers.____31____A.Kids have more advantages than adults.B.These diseases are usually called late effects.C.If fortunate enough for them, the cancer never comes back.D.How do doctors and specialists diagnose and treat kids’ cancer?E.Families of kids with cancer usually get into great trouble.F.Improvements in treatment can help most kids survive their cancer.G.The reason why some kids’ cancer never comes back is unknown.四、完形填空About 30 years ago, I left Cuba for the United States with my 4-year-old son. After getting ____32____finally in Brunswick, New Jersey, I enrolled(注册)my son in____33____Several weeks later, my son’s teacher asked me to meet him at his ____34____.In the teacher’s office, an exchange of ____35____was followed by his questions: “Is your son mentally retarded (弱智的), Does he suffer from any kind of____36____disability?”Was he talking about my wonderful Scola? No, no it can’t be. What a ____37____. lonely moment! I told him that Scola was a quiet, sweet little boy, instead. I asked him why he was asking me all these questions.My son could not ____38____the teacher’s directions, he told me, and ____39____. Scola was disrupting the class.

Note that there is one word more than you needagree suffer system notice throughdangerous space limited absorbs let outFor years scientist have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more _1_ than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to _2_ eye-pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists _3_ that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People began to _4_ the problem in the early 1970s, when it was that builders began making houses and offices which did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that _5_ the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to _6_ harmful gases. As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control _7_ for building green plants. Scientist do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant produces oxygen _8_ its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. Studies of different plants show that each _9_ different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and healthier place.二、阅读理解It was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classlesssociety' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice. Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.10.A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A.people regard themselves socially differentB.most people belong to middle classC.it is easy to recognize a person’s classD.it is time to end class distinction11.The word “stratification” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________. A.variety B.qualification C.authority D.division 12.British attitudes towards accent ________.A.are based on regional statusB.have a long traditionC.are shared by the AmericansD.have changed in recent years13.What is the main idea of the passage?A.The middle class is expandingB.A person’s accent reflects his classC.Class is a key part of British societyD.Each class has unique characteristics.Kids are cool to wear blue jeans and T-shirts today. It is fashionable like that. Fashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!During the 1960s and 1970s, Hippies made bell—bottomed blue jeans(喇叭裤)popular. Also, in the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants(降落伞裤)all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!Do you know why fashions change?The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movies stars, as well as popular films, television shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industry’s advertising.The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain(保持)their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imitate(模仿) their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.Clothes have been used to separate people into groups for many years. Even today,brand-name, clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to make themselves different from others.Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others. Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality — not your clothes — speak for who you are!14.What does the example of bell—bottomed blue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 2suggest?A.Fashion always changes.B.Stars are always influential.C.People have different dressing styles.D.Hippies and Michael Jackson are good designers.15.What causes the changes of fashions?A.Advertisements change rapidly.B.Popular culture influences people.C.Movie stars are changing over time.D.New films and shows replace the old.16.We can learn from the text that _____ .A.fashion is all about clothes.B.the author has gone out of fashion.C.clothes may separate and distance people.D.people like imitate others’ dressing style.17.What does the author mainly want to stress in the last paragraph?A.The advantages of staying unique.B.The bad effects of following fashion.C.The good influences of popular styles.D.The importance of having one’s own personality.The new study shows that we spend more time using the mobile Internet than reading newspapers or magazines. According to the European Interactive Advertising Association (EIAA), the average European spends 4.8 hours reading newspapers and magazines but 1.6 hours more using the mobile Internet a week.The EIAA questioned 15, 000 people in 15 European countries, looking at how people are using the Internet and its influence on their everyday lives. It has found that the mobile Internet is increasingly finding its way into the public awareness. Over 71 million Europeans now have Internet access on their mobiles phones. In the UK, 10 million people now access the Internet through their mobile phones and spend 6. 3 hours doing so in a week.Unsurprisingly younger generations in the UK are leading the way, with nearly half of the country’s 16-to-24-year-olds and a quarter of 25-to-34-year-olds using the mobile Internet,spending 6.5 and 6.2 hours online each week.Entertainment plays a major role in our mobile Internet lives, with one in five British people using their phones for online games, a third listening to the online radio and 39 percent watching films, TV or other videos at least once a week. One third of those using an Internet phone said they received videos, images or other multimedia on their mobile, and 61 percent said they passed on contents they received.From a communication point of view, 80 percent of those questioned agreed that the Internet had made it easier for them to stay in touch with friends and family.Alison Fennah, director of the EIAA, said the mobile Internet use had come to the point that marketers should be looking to develop strategies that connect with consumers more effectively. ‘‘Better devices as well as improved consumer motivation that start coming together in 2011 can make a great difference to extending the online experience.” Fennah said.18.How long does a European spend on the mobile Internet per week according to the EIAA?A.6. 2 hours.B.6. 4 hours.C.4. 8 hours.D.1. 6 hours.19.What do the words “doing so” mean in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Reading papers and magazines.B.Playing computer games.C.Watching films online.D.Using the mobile Internet.20.What do people mainly use the mobile Internet for?A.Communication.B.Study.C.Amusement.D.Advertising.21.It can be known from the passage that _______.A.more than half of the young people in the UK use the mobile Internet.B.the Internet is the most effective way to stay in touch with friends and family.C.the UK has the largest number of people who use the mobile Internet in Europe. D.better devices and improved consumer motivation help extend the online experience. 22.The author wrote the passage to tell us ________.A.how to use mobile phones to surf the InternetB.newspapers and magazines will disappear soonC.mobile surfing now is more popular than readingD.how the Internet influences our daily lifeGive a little sunshine!The Council on Aging (COA) runs a telephone friendship project called the Sunshine Call Program, matching over-60s with a friendly volunteer for a daily chat over the phone. The aim is simple-to help ease the loneliness and repair social networks.Are you ready to add a little sunshine to a senior’s life?The Sunshine Call Program initially links a volunteer with an isolated (独居的) senior for a daily call. When comfortable, the volunteer introduces a second senior to the call. Then another, until there are four seniors to one volunteer on what is essentially a conference call. Without having to leave the house, you will help the seniors meet and make new friends. They will then exchange phone numbers to chat on their own and reduce their isolation.What are the volunteer qualifications?V olunteers must have access to the Internet and be willing to be trained on the use of a chat app. COA will provide all supplies required to make the calls. Besides, volunteers must agree to participate in monthly meetings with other volunteers and guest speakers. All volunteers must be willing to provide a recent Criminal Record Check, the cost of which will be borne by COA.And the most important volunteer qualification is a sense of caring and a desire to help seniors in the community!If you wish to volunteer with our Sunshine Call program, never hesitate!

But you don’t. What you want is respect and admiration from other people. ____28____ It almost never does—especially from the people you want to respect and admire you.____29____ Not struggling, and not unhappy, of course. But there’s no way to learn the value of money without feeling the power of lacking it. It teaches you the difference between necessary and desirable. It’ll make you learn to enjoy what you have, fix what’s broken, and shop for a bargain. These are primary survival skills.Some people are born into families that encourage education; others are from families that are against it. Some are born into peace and wealth; others, into war and poverty. I want you to be successful, and I want you to earn it. But realize that not all success is due to hard work and being poor is not always due to laziness. ____30____Your savings rate has a little to do with how much you earn and a lot to do with how much you spend. I know a dentist who lives paycheck to paycheck, always on the edge of ruin. I know another person who has never earned more than $50,000 but saved a fortune____31____ Living with less is the most efficient way to control your financial future.Don’t listen to me if you disagree with what I’ve written. The world you grow up in will have different values and opportunities than the one I did. More importantly, you’ll learn best when you disagree with someone and then are forced to learn it yourself. On the other hand, always listen to your mother.A.I hope you’re poor at some point.B.If you do think so, you may get wrong.C.When he does, here are some suggestionsD.Your goals should be about more than money.E.You think having something expensive will bring it.F.The difference is entirely due to the way they spend.G.Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.四、完形填空The summer was over.
