She climbed on a throne-shaped iceberg while she was there.Judith Streng, from Texas, struck a royal look on the iceberg. The iceberg washed up on Diamond Beach in Jkulsrln, Iceland. Her son snapped a picture. It was a moment of success for the “iceberg queen,” as she was later called. That is, until a sudden wave splashed around the icy throne. It sent the grandmother out to sea. “When I got on it, it started to totter and a wave was ing in,” Streng said. The wave made the throne rock back and forth. She said, “I could tell that I was slipping off.”Strengs granddaughter, Christine, posted the texts and photos her father sent after the Feb. 26 experience. Each photo shows Judith drifting farther and farther away from the camera. Christines father texted her that her grandmother “lost her kingdom” when she drifted out to sea. He added, “No joke. A coast guard rescuer had to save her and bring her back to shore!” Photos of grandmas ocean adventure had 66,000 retweets by the evening of March 1. The daring grandmother said her rescuer was Randy Lacount, a boat captain from Florida. He had seen her float away. “I thought it was safe,” Streng said. “One gift had been on it and then two girls at the same time, and it was very secure with them. But I dont weigh very much. So it was a little easier to float off with me, I guess.” When asked why she sat on the throne, she said, “You know, I always wanted to be a queen. I mean, e on, that was my chance.” Streng has returned to the United States and is relaxing after her trip, Christine said. The older Streng told her granddaughter that shes “glad people are getting a kick out of her story.” “Being so popular is wild,” the grandmother added. In a way, its like being royalty.24.

Later the Ancient Romans and Greeks wrote their names and protest poems on buildings. Modern graffiti seems to have appeared in Philadelphia in the early 1960s, and by the late sixties it had reached New York. The new art form really, took off in the 1970s, when people began writing their names, or tags, on buildings all over the city. In the mid seventies it was sometimes hard to see out of a subway car window, because the trains were pletely covered in spray paintings known as “masterpieces”. The term graffiti was first used by The New York Times and the novelist Norman Mailer. Art galleries in New York began buying graffiti in the early seventies. But at the same time that it began to be regarded as an art form, John Lindsay, the then mayor of New York, declared the first war on graffiti. By the 1980s it became much harder to write on subway trains without being caught, and instead many of the more established graffiti artists began using roofs of buildings or canvases. The debate over whether graffiti is art or vandalism is still going on. Peter Vallone, a New York city councillor, thinks that graffiti done with permission can be art, but if it is on someone elses property it bees a crime. On the other hand, Felix, a member of the Berlin-based group Reclaim Your City, says that artists are reclaiming cities for the public from advertisers, and that graffiti represents freedom and makes cities more vibrant. For decades graffiti has been a springboard to international fame for a few. Jean-Michel Basquiat began spraying on the street in the 1970s before being a respected artist in the 80s. The Frenchman Blek le Rat and the British artist Banksy have achieved international fame by producing plex works. Works by Banksy have been sold for over 100,000. Graffiti is now sometimes big business.28. Why was the seventies an important decade in the history of graffiti? A. That was when modern graffiti first appeared. B. That was when modern graffiti became popular. C. That was when graffiti first reached New York. D. That was when high-quality graffito first came out.29. How did things change after the first war on graffiti? A. It was considered a more serious crime. B. Graffiti artists had to find different places to paint. C. New York looked a lot cleaner than before. D. Graffiti began to be regarded as an art form.30. Which of the following about graffiti is not discussed in this passage? A. Not just a modern phenomenon. B. Art or vandalism. C. Famous graffiti artists. D. The future of graffiti.31. What is the authors final point? A. Graffiti has now bee mainstream and can make artists a lot of money. B. Graffiti can be good for cities as long as it conveys positive messages. C. Graffiti helps the public to own the streets and take control away from advertisers. D. Some of the most popular graffiti artists end up being abandoned by the art world.D Erosion causes the earth to be worn away, often by water, wind or ice. A similar process, called weathering, breaks down or dissolves rock. Weathering also weakens rock or turns it into tiny fragments. No rock is hard enough to resist weathering and erosion. Erosion moves bits of rock or soil from one place to another. Most erosion is caused by water, wind, or ice usually in the form of a glacier. If water is muddy, it is a sign that erosion is taking place. It indicates that bits of rock and soil are floating in the water. This material is called sediment.Moving water is the major agent of erosion. Rain carries away bits of soil and slowly washes away rock fragments. Rushing streams and rivers wear away their banks, creating larger and larger valleys. Over 5 million years, the Colorado River cut deep into the land, eventually forming the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon is mote than 1 mile deep and as much as 18 miles wide. Wind also erodes land. It carries dust, sand, and volcanic ash from one place to another. Wind is responsible for the dramatic arches that give Arches National Park, in Utah, its name. Ice can erode the land. Glaciers move slowly downhill and across the land. As they move, they pick up everything in their path, from tiny grains of sand to huge boulders. During several times in Earths history, vast glaciers covered parts of the Northern Hemisphere. These periods are known as ice ages. Erosion is a natural process, but human activity can make it happen more quickly. Trees and plants hold soil in place. When people cut down forests or plow up grasses, the soil washes away or blows away more easily. Landslides bee more mon. Water also rushes over exposed soil rather than soaking into it, causing flooding. Erosion control is the process of reducing erosion. Sometimes, engineers simply install structures to physically prevent rocks or soil from being eroded away.32. How does the term “erosion” was introduced in this passage? A. By describing the damage erosion causes and stressing the dangers of erosion. B. By explaining the causes of erosion and outlining ways to reduce the effects of erosion. C. By defining types of erosion and providing examples of the effects of erosion. D. By paring concepts to erosion and explaining the importance of erosion.33. What does the underlined word “sediment” refer to? A. Muddy water B. Sign that erosion is taking place. C. Bits of rock and soil D. Floating in the water.34. What effect do humans have on erosion? A. They can cause it. B. They can make it stop. C. They can create or avoid it. D. They can speed up or reduce it.35. What is one way that erosion happens? A. Water runs over land and washes away soil and rock. B. Ice freezes the land and then melts, creating meadows. C. Wind blows trees and plants over, changing the landscape. D. People move land with machines, changing the form of the land.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。 One of the first things I did when I moved to my new city was hire a bike. Why? 36. You travel much faster than on foot and you notice so much more of your surroundings than when in a bus or a car. Its more appealing to wander down small streets if they seem interesting, as you can quickly get back to the main road. However, I soon discovered plenty more benefits to cycling, even after finding my feet in my new home. 37. For example, cycling to work takes me half the time that it would to walk - excellent for someone who values an extra few minutes in bed! 38. For example, I planned to go to a concert on the other side of town. While my cyclist friend and I simply looked at a map, our friends without bikes had to deal with the plicated bus system. Of course, there are obvious health benefits of cycling. Cycling on my way to work also makes me feel more energetic in the mornings. 39. While cars pollute the environment, bikes are carbon-neutral. Furthermore, thanks to being petrol-free, bikes are cheaper to run, buy and fix than cars. Even if you dont own a car, a bike can pay for itself when pared to the price of bus tickets. 40. Always wear a helmet, pay attention to other traffic and dont forget your lights at night. Make sure you know the road rules, especially in a new place. A. However, be careful when cycling. B. A bike means that fewer places feel far away. C. I have to learn to ride safely on the right of the road. D. Importantly, cycling also helps to reduce your carbon footprint. E. Riding a bike also means youre not restricted by bus timetables. F. And sometimes city roads are difficult or unpleasant for cyclists. G. Seeing a city by bike is ideal for settling in and learning your way around.第三部分 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15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和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As the taxi pulls away, my father stands at the living room window looking out, watching me move off into the 41 , at 4:30 am.
