knowledge of dealing with travel dangers.But our attention is easily drawn to the new, the fascinating and the challenging, and there has not been much effort to solve the_old_problem and change the way people behave in the sun.We understand the harmful effects of strong sunlight.As with cigarettes and lung cancer, theres no need for more research to tell us what we should do.Nor is much research being carried out.Of the hundreds of papers presented at an international conference on travel illnesses, there was only a single paper on the sun.Last month, a fivemonthold baby almost died from sunburn suffering burns to 40 percent of its skin surface while sleeping on the beach.Sunburn is only one of the problems caused by strong sunlight and research results are shocking.In men, the death rate for malignant melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, has more than doubled in the past 30 years from 1.5 per 100,000 population to 3.1 per 100,000, according to Cancer Research UK.It is no coincidence (巧合)that the same 30year period has seen a rise in traveling.In older age groups, the death rate is much higher.Meanwhile, the number of new cases of melanoma has grown fivefold.More women are being diagnosed with melanoma but more men are dying from it men are less likely to seek treatment in time.Other more treatable skin cancers are also on the rise, with an estimated 100,000 cases every year.The underlying reason comes down to this: most paleskinned people have a strong belief, deeply rooted in our culture, that they look better with browner skin.They will risk cancer and pain to support their goal, and medical education seems to make little difference.语篇解读：很多人都知道太阳光线可能造成伤害，但并没有改变行为方式来减少这一伤害。21The underlined part “the old problem” in the first paragraph refers to_.Adifficulties in travelingBthe harm that strong sunlight can doCthe challenges during the travelDthe death rate of skin cancer解析：选B推理判断题。根据第二段的“We understand the harmful effects of strong sunlight.”可知答案。22According to the 4th paragraph, the death rate for skin cancer has increased probably because _.Athe air is more polluted than beforeBskin cancer cant be treatedCpeople are under greater pressureDmore and more people are traveling解析：选D推理判断题。根据第四段的“It is no coincidence that . a rise in traveling.”可知答案。23Which of the following statements is TRUE?AThe death rate for skin cancer among old people is lower.BMore babies are dying from skin cancer.CWomen are more likely to get treatment in time.DFewer women get skin cancer now.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第四段的“More women are . treatment in time.”可知男人不太寻求及时治疗，相比之下，女人则更可能寻求这方面的治疗，由此可知答案。24We can learn from the last paragraph that_.Apaleskinned people are usually illBnobody will risk cancer to look better Cour culture doesnt believe browner skin looks betterDmedical education will not change peoples desire for browner skin解析：选D细节理解题。根据最后一段的“They will risk . to make little difference.”可知答案。BHeld in each August Bank Holiday since 1966, the Notting Hill Carnival is the largest festival celebration of its kind in Europe.Every year the streets of West London come alive, with the sounds and smells of Europes biggest street festival.Twenty miles of colourful costumes surround over 40 sound systems, hundreds of Caribbean food stalls (摊位), over 40,000 volunteers and over 1 million Notting Hill carnival revelers (狂欢者)Starting its life as a local festival set up by the West Indian community of the Notting Hill area, it has now become a real Caribbean carnival, attracting millions of visitors from all over the globe.With many astonishing floats (彩车) and the sounds of the traditional steel drum bands, scores of sound systems plus the hundreds of stalls that line the streets of Notting Hill, the Notting Hill Carnival is arguably Londons most exciting annual event.The Notting Hill Carnival used to get under way on the Saturday with the steel band competition.Sunday is Kids Day, when the costume prizes are awarded.On Bank Holiday Monday, the main parade takes place.It generally begins on Great Western Road, then winds its way along Chepstow Road, on to Westbourne Grove, and then Ladbroke Grove.In the evening, the floats leave the streets, and people continue to have fun at the many NottingHillCarnivalafter parties.The Notting Hill Carnival dates for 2010 were August 29th and 30th.The proposed dates for Notting Hill Carnival 2011 are August 28th and 29th.If you are looking to have a stall at the Notting Hill Carnival, you will need to apply for a trading licence.Find out more on our links

the summit (山顶) of Pacaya for a closeup view.There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua, giving travelers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful.Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua, a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into artworks during its Holy Week festival.No matter when you come to Antigua, you wont miss the Pacayatour companies.But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2,560 metres high, and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly onestepforward and twostepback movements.As you climb, you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above.Steaming hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit the McKenney Cone (火山锥)Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone, the road turns to the left and up to the relative safety of the old, inactive summit.Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky.On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting.The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air.There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone.As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down to a side of the volcano.For you, too, it is time to get down.语篇解读：本文主要介绍帕卡亚火山。33What is the main purpose of this passage?ATo attract tourists to Pacaya.BTo describe the beauty of Pacaya.CTo introduce guided tours to Pacaya.DTo explain the power of nature at Pacaya.解析：选A写作目的题。综观全文可知，本文是一则旅游广告，目的是吸引游客去参观帕卡亚火山喷发，故A项正确。34Antigua is a city _.Awhere

35Climbing to the McKenney Cone, people will _.Awalk directly to the active summitBhear the continuous loud noise from aboveCmake greater efforts than to other summitsDsee a path lined with remains of earlier eruptions解析：选D细节理解题。根据第三段第三句话可知D项正确。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，选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Treat a Victim of an Electric ShockElectric shock accidents are caused by an electric current from a mechanical source passing through the body.
