hottest days of the dry season.We had not seen rain in almost a month.The crops were dying.Cows had stopped giving milk.The streams were long gone back into the earth.If we didnt see some rain soon we would lose everything.I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my sixyearold son,Billy,walking toward the woods.He was obviously walking with a great effort,trying to be as still as possible.Minutes after he disappeared into the woods,he came running out again,toward the house.Moments later,however,he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods.This activity went on for over an hour:walking cautiously to the woods,then running back to the house.Finally,my curiosity got the best of me.I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked,being very careful not to spill the water he held in them.Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them.He had a much greater purpose.As I leaned in to spy on him,I saw the most amazing site.Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him.But Billy walked right up to them.I almost screamed for him to get away.And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground,obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion,lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boys hand.I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life.As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground,they were suddenly joined by other drops. and more drops.and more.I looked up at the sky.It was as if God,himself,was weeping with pride.语篇解读:本文作者在看到儿子比利救缺水小鹿这一幕时深受感动。1Why did the author follow her son?ABecause there might be danger.BBecause her son was doing a good deed.CBecause she was curious.DBecause she intended to help.解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“my curiosity got the best of

hands.DBilly walked into the woods and then returned over and over again.解析:推理判断题。根据“Minutes after he disappeared into the woods”可知,如果只剩几棵树的话,作者就不用跟着儿子进入树林,只要站在远处就能看见。答案:B3What Billy did mainly showed that he was_Acaring Bbeautiful Cchildlike Dbrave解析:细节理解题。根据“I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life”可知,儿子在天旱的时候去挽救小鹿的生命,可见儿子有爱心。答案:AThe UN Environment Programme says that rising temperatures could mean the end for some migrating animals.Migrating or mobile animals move through several environments as they travel away from the cold of winter to warmer areas.Birds may fly from one part of the world to another,perhaps stopping at feeding grounds on the way.Whales and turtles(海龟) cover vast areas of ocean.The report says that changes in any one of the places which these animals use can cause serious harm.“Obviously these animals have developed their travelling patterns over thousands of years.But climate change is almost certain to be extreme over the next 25 to 50 years and it is extremely unlikely that these animals can change their habits fast enough,”said the report author Dr.Robert Hepworth.Hardest hit by rising temperatures are turtles.Scientists have found that at higher temperatures,turtles produce far more female eggs than male ones.In parts of Malaysia,turtle birthing sites are producing only females,the report says.It also provides evidence that some turtles are more likely to develop cancer as the waters get warmer.With birds,the main problem is climaterelated damage to important areas at either end of the travels or at resting places along the way. About onefifth of migrating birds are now in danger because of climaterelated changes including rising sea levels,land loss and more violent storms,the report concludes.Other animals picked out as particularly in danger include:the North Atlantic Minke Whale,whose main food (tiny shrimp) is disturbed by the change in ocean flows.the White Nose Dolphin,which is outpeted by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters.The report is not all bad news.Even with major climate changes,protecting the environment can still help mobile animals to recover.“We need governments to start taking action at the national and international level.The_clock_is_running.”said Dr.Hepworth.And some animals are already adapting,with the report mentioning whales that are changing their feeding behaviour,finding new feeding grounds and new foods to eat.语篇解读:本文主要讲述气候的变化对迁徙的动物造成的影响。4What can be inferred (推断) about turtles from the text?AThey are the only animals besides humans that suffer from cancer.BThey have traditionally lived longer than other oceanbased animals.CThose born near a hotter area are more likely to be females.DThose born near a hotter area are more likely to be males.解析:推理判断题。根据第三段第二句可以推断出C项正确。答案:C5According to the report,how will global warming affect turtles in the future?AThey will only produce female babies.BTheir food supply will gradually disappear.CSome will suffer from higher rates of cancer.DThey will be in greater danger because of more violent storms.解析:细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知,全球变暖会导致海龟得癌症的几率增加。答案:C6Which of the following is mentioned as a consequence of rising temperatures?AMore storms will affect the ability of whales to find their feeding grounds.B20 percent of all birds are likely to die out because of land loss.CMigrating animals are likely to start adapting to the changes more quickly.DWarmer oceans will increase the petition between different kinds of dolphins.解析:细节理解题。A项文章没有提到;B项错误,文章提到“五分之一的迁徙鸟类处在危险之中”,而不是灭绝;C项错误,应该是unlikely。根据倒数第二段中的“the White Nose Dolphin,which is outpeted by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters”可知会产生D项这样的后果。答案:D7By saying “The clock is running” in the last paragraph,Dr.Hepworth means that “_”Ait may be too late to save some animals Bit is time to start protecting the animalsCthere is not much time to solve the problem Dit takes time to plete the actions解析:词义猜测题。从文章最后一句可猜测出,一些动物已经开始适应变化了的环境,有报道说,鲸鱼正在改变它们的饮食习惯。因此解决问题刻不容缓。答案:CCharles Dickens(18121870),the great nineteenth century English novelist,was born near Portsmouth.His father ran heavily into debt and when he was twelve,he had to go and work in a factory for making boot polish.The only formal education he received was a twoyear schooling at a school for poor children.In fact,he had to teach himself all he knew.He worked for a time as junior clerk in a lawyers office.After that,he worked as a reporter in the law courts,and later in parliament,for London newspapers.His career as a writer of fiction began in 1833 with short stories and essays in periodicals,and in 1837 his ic novel The Pickwick Papers made him the most popular author at his time in England.He was a great observer of people and their places because he was attracted by life and conditions in midnineteenth century London.He wrote 19 novels all his life and in many of them,Dickens gave a realistic picture of all classes of England society,showing deep sympathy for the poor and unfortunate,exposing the injustice and inhumanity of the bourgeoisie.Many of his novels like Oliver Twist,David Copperfield,Nicholas Nickleby,Great Expectations,A Tale of Two Cities and so on drew attention to the unsatisfactory social conditions that existed in England over a hundred years ago.Dickens criticized capitalist society from the point of view of bourgeois humanism.He wished to see improvement in the living conditions of the poor,but failed to find any effective means to achieve that end.8Dickens only received a little formal education because_Ahe wanted to teach himselfBhe wanted to work and made a lot of money Che was too poor to afford any more formal educationDhe wanted some working experiences to be a novelist解析:推理判断题。由文章第一段第二句可知。答案: C9According to Dickens,the society at his time in England was_Ajustice Bpoor Cfortable Dunsatisfying解析:推理判断题。由文章倒数第二段“the unsatisfactory social conditions that existed in England over a hundred years ago”可知。答案:D 10Which of the following novel made Dickens the most popular writer at his time in England?AOliver Twist. BThe Pickwick Papers.CA Tale of Two Cities. DGreat Expectations.解析:细节理解题。由第一段的最后一句可知。答案:B11According to the passage,which of the following about Dickens is TRUE?AHe didnt go to school at all.BHe only wrote about poor people and showed deep sympathy for them.CHe began to write fictions when he was 21 years old.DHe found some effective ways to improve the living conditions of the poor.解析:细节理解题。由第一段的第一句和最后一句可知。答案:CAs the pace of life continues to increase,we are fast losing the art of relaxation.Once you are in the habit of rushing through life,being on the go from morning till night,it is hard to slow down.But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it.In fact,it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be.A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life.It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual.Some people are not afraid of stress,and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities,others lose heart at the first sign of unusual difficulties.When exposed to stress,in whatever form,we react both chemically and physically.In fact we make choice between “flight or fight” and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death.The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme,but however little the stress,it involves the same response.It is when such a reaction lasts long,through continued exposure to stress,that health bees endangered.Since we cant remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do_so even if we could),we need to find ways to deal with it.12People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because _Athey regard working as their greatest enjoymentBthey believe that work is superior to relaxationCthey are traveling fast all the timeDthey are being busier with their work than ever before解析:推理判断题。由第一段可推知,无法放松自己主要是比以前任何时候都要忙碌。答案:D13According to the author,the most important character for a good manager is his_Astrong will to hold out stress Bknowing the art of relaxationChigh sense of responsibility Dhaving control over performance解析:推理判断题。由第三段第二句可推知,当好管理者的优良品质是要具有坚强的抵制压力的意志。句中prime material意为“一流的素质”。答案:A14Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?AWe can find quite a few ways to avoid stress.BStress is always harmful to peoples health.CIts easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.DDifferent people can bear different amount of stress.解析:细节理解题。由第三段第一句“The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual”可知。答案:D15In the last sentence of the passage,“do so” refers to“_”Aexpose ourselves to stress Bfind ways to deal with stressCremove stress from our lives Destablish links between diseases and stress解析:词义猜测题。由“Since we cant remove stress from our lives”可知括号里的内容是对前文的解释。答案:C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。We often carry a lot of things when were travelling. _16_ On long ones we carry things like passports, visas, etc. Though travelling can be fun, were likely to misplace these things and even lose them because of the excitement of the journey or being too busy or tired. So how can we carry valuable things safely while travelling?_17_ Place most of it in a wallet and put the wallet in your main suitcase or bag with a lockandkey system. Dont open it until you reach your destination (目的地). Guess how much money youll need on the journey, and place this money in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket. _18_ Next, instead of wearing your jewelry, you can carry your jewelry at the bottom of your suitcase or bag. _19_ Many people think that since the purse is always going to be in their hands, itll remain safe. But other things like tickets, phone numbers, keys, etc., are all going to go in there. So youre often going to open your purse for something or the other. What if you just drop it?Then remember to hook (钩住) the keys. You get those really nice key chains these days that e with a big doghook._20_ Use one of these to carry your keys. This way, you wont leave the keys in a restaurant or any other place.Hope all the above tips for travelling will help you. ASo youll know what to bring.BIts a kind of vacation, but without your parents.CSpend money from this wallet till you get to your destination.DFirstly, distribute (分开) your money if youre travelling alone.EYou can hook the key chain to your jeans or your handbag.FOn short trips we take things like money, jewelry (首饰), house keys, etc.GDont carry it in your purse, just in case somebody is quick in stealing your purse.16解析:根据上文的“We often carry a lot of things when were travelling.”以及下文的“On long ones we carry things like passports, visas, etc.”可知,不管是长途旅行还是短途旅行,我们都会携带很多东西,由此可知,F项为正确答案。答案:F17解析:根据上文的“So how can we carry valuable things safely while travelling?”可知,下文作者开始介绍如何在旅途中安全地保管好贵重物品,再结合第二段的内容可知,D项为正确答案。答案:D18解析:根据上文的“Dont open it until you reach your destination”以及“and place this money in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket.”可知,在旅途中始终不要打开装钱多的那个钱包,用钱的时候可以在装钱少的那个钱包里拿钱。答案:C19解析:根据语境可知,下文是在讲述很多人愿意把首饰放在手提包里,实际上放在手提包里并不安全,由此可知G项符合。答案:G20解析:根据本段首句“Then remember to hook the keys.”可知,作者本段在讲述如何在旅途中保管好钥匙,由此可知E项为正确答案。答案:E第二部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。My husband,Tom,has always been good with animals,but I was still amazed when he befriended a female grouse(松鸡)Its _21_for a grouse to have any contact(接触) with people.In fact,theyre hard to spot,_22_ they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching.This grouse came into our lives in_23_.Tom was working out in the field when he_24_ her walking around at the edge of the field.She was _25_unafraid and seemed to be _26_ about what he was doing.Tom saw the _27_bird several times,and she got more fortable around him.We quickly grew_28_of the bird and decided to call her Mildred.One day,as Tom was working,Mildred came within a few feet of him to watch.Tom_29_he didnt see her and kept working to see what she would do next.Apparently,she didnt like to be _30_.Shed run up and pecked(啄) at Toms hands,then _31_ off to see what he would do.This went on for about 20 minutes,until Mildred became tired of the _32_and left.As spring went and summer came,Mildred started to _33_ more and more often._34_Mildred felt fortable enough to jump up on Toms leg and stay long enough for me to get a_35_ of the two of them together.This friendly grouse soon felt_36_ not just with our family,but with anybody who walked or drove by.When hunting season opened,we put a _37_ at the end of our driveway asking _38_ not to shoot our pet grouse.My father,who lived down the road,_39_warned people not to shoot her._40_,hunters would stop and take pictures,because they had never seen anything like her.语篇解读:作者的丈夫与一只松鸡成了朋友!在狩猎季节,大家一起提醒猎人不要猎杀那只松鸡,事实上,猎人们对这只和人类成为好朋友的松鸡非常好奇。21A.interesting Breasonable Cimpossible Dunusual22A.though Bbecause Cunless Duntil23A.spring Bsummer Cautumn Dwinter24A.got Bkept Cnoticed Dimagined25A.naturally Bcertainly Cnormally Dsurprisingly26A.crazy Bcurious Cconcerned Dcautious27A.shy Bawkward Cfriendly Delegant28A.careful Btired Cfond Dsick29A.supposed Brealized Choped Dpretended30A.ignored Bobserved Camazed Ddisturbed31A.put Bback Cset Dtake32A.game Bwork Cplace Dman33A.give up Be out Cturn over Dfly by34A.Eventually BSuddenly CConstantly DPresently35A.chance Bdream Cpicture Dsense36Afortable Bguilty Canxious Dfamiliar37A.lantern Bsign Cgun Dloudspeaker38A.drivers Bfarmers Chunters Dtourists39A.just Byet Cthus Dalso40A.In fact BFor long COn the contrary DBy the way21解析:根据常识及下文“they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching”可知,松鸡能与作者的丈夫相处是很不寻常的。答案:D22解析:上下文存在因果关系。句意:事实上,松鸡是很难被人发现的,它们非常警觉,因为当它们听到人类靠近的时候,通常就会飞走。答案:B23解析:根据文章倒数第二段“As spring went and summer came”可知我们是在春天和这只松鸡相遇的。答案:A24解析:句意:汤姆正在田里干活,突然他注意到一只松鸡在田边上走动。其他选项不符合语境。答案:C 25.解析:根据下文松鸡靠近人可知,此处应指令人感到惊讶。 答案:D26解析:句意:让人惊讶的是,这只松鸡并不害怕,而且看起来对汤姆所做的事情很好奇。答案:B 27.解析:这只松鸡看到人并不飞走,因此是“友善的”。答案:C28解析:be fond of“喜欢,喜爱”。答案:C29解析:根据下文“to see what she would do next”可知是假装没看到她。 答案:D30解析:根据上文汤姆假装没看见和下文“Shed run up and pecked at Toms hands”可知此处指松鸡不喜欢被忽略。答案:A31解析:put off “推迟”;back off “退后”;set off“动身,引爆”;take off“脱掉,起飞,事业成功”。句意:松鸡跑上前来啄汤姆的手,然后后退,看看他会做什么。答案:B 32.解析:过来啄汤姆的手,然后后退,对松鸡来说应该是一种游戏。答案:A33解析:give up“放弃”;e out“出来,出版”;turn over“移交,翻转”;fly by“飞过”。句意:当春天过去夏季到来的时候,松鸡开始更加经常地出现。答案:B34解析:此处选eventually表示时间慢慢流逝,松鸡与我们的关系变得更好。答案:A35解析:get a picture of the two of them together“为他们两个一起拍照”。其他选项不符合语境。答案:C36解析:根据上文多次出现的fortable可知。句意:这只友好的松鸡很快不仅与我们家人待在一起感到很
