However, their ability to recognize human faces from photos alone is novel.The recent study, the results of which were published in the journal Royal Society; Open Science, show the woolly creatures could be trained to recognize still images of human faces, including those of former President Barack Obama and actress Emma Watson.Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards. Later, they were able to recognize the images for which they had been rewarded. The sheep could even recognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15 percentthe same rate at which a humans ability to perform the same task declines,“Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know that they are intelligent and individual animals who are able to recognize their handlers.” said Professor Jenny Morton, who led the Cambridge study. “Weve shown with our study that sheep have advanced face-recognition abilities, close to those of humans and monkeys.”Recognizing faces is one of he most important social skills for human beings, and some disorders of the brain, including Huntingtons disease, affect this ability.“Sheep are long-lived and have brains that are similar in size and plexity to those of some monkeys. That means they can be useful models to help us understand disorders of the brain, such as Huntingtons disease that develop over a long time and affect cognitive (认识的) abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change.” Morton said.21According to the new research, whats unusual about sheep?A. They have large brains.B. They can recognize their owners.C. They can tell animals from humans.D. They can recognize human faces from photographs.22How did the researchers train the sheep?A. By giving food rewards.B. By showing photos of famous people.C. By guiding them to follow their handlers.D. By showing photos of humans and monkeys by tums.23What can be inferred from the passage?A. Sheep have a higher face-recognition ability than monkeys.B. The new discovery is of great benefit to the study of cognitive ability changes.C. The sheeps face-recognition ability may prevent some disorders of the brain.D. The sheeps face-recognition ability stays the same when shown photos at any angle.24Whats the best title of the passage?A. A Wonderful Scientist.B. The Life of Sheep.C. A New Discovery about Sheep.D. How Sheep Recognize Each Other.The Maldives faces the threat of extinction from rising sea levels, but the government said on Thursday it was looking to the future with plans to build homes and a golf course that can float.An increase in sea levels of just 18 to 59 centimeters would make the Maldives - a nation of a number of tiny coral islands in the Indian Ocean - not suitable for humans to live in by 2100, the UNs climate change experts have warned.President Mohamed Nasheed has declared a fight for survival, and last month he signed a deal with a Dutch pany to study suggestions for a floating structure that could support a conference centre, homes and an 18-hole golf course.The pany, Dutch Docklands, is currently building floating developments in the Netherlands and Dubai. Its website said it undertook projects that make “land from water by providing large-scale floating constructions to create similar conditions as on land”.The Maldives began to work on an artificial island known as the Hulhumale near the crowded capital island of Male in 1997 and more than 30,000 people have been settled there in order to ease crowdedness. The city, which has a population of 100,000, is already protected from rising sea levels by a 30-million-dollar sea wall, and the government is considering increasingly imaginative ways to fight climate change.Nasheed, who held the worlds first underwater cabinet (内阁) meeting in October to highlight his peoples serious and difficult situation, has even spoken of buying land elsewhere in the world to enable Maldivians to relocate if their homes are pletely covered.He has also promised to turn his nation into a model for the rest of the world by being “carbon neutral (碳中和)” by xx. His plan involves ending fossil fuel use and powering all vehicles and buildings from “green” sources such as burning coconut husks.25According to the passage, the Maldives is a country _.A. that is made up of many small islandsB. which has been covered by water nowC. where people live in underwater housesD. whose people live in their floating homes26Mohamed Nasheed chose Dutch Docklands for his plan probably because it _.A. has a good fame throughout the worldB. charged much less than other paniesC. has experience in building floating structuresD. supports building floating structures in the world27The Hulhumale was built for the purpose of _.A. attracting more visitors B. making it a new capitalC. fighting against climate change D. making the capital less crowded28What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A.

During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.Many of Gershwins songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way from jazz to country.In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to pose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he posed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study position (作曲)with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics (评论家)were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It sill remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.29What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?A. He created one of his best works B. He studied with Nadia BoulangerC. He argued with French critics D. He changed his music style30What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Many of Gershwins works were lostB. The death of Gershwin was widely reportedC. A concert was held in memory of GershwinD. Brain cancer research started after Gershwins death.31Which of the following best describes Gershwin?A. Talented and productive B. Serious and boringC. Popular and unhappy D. Friendly and honest三、完形填空I was on my way home from work, cutting through the park.

They found both groups began gaining weight in the xxs and had steadily increased in size ever since.Dr. Rebecca Hardy, the councils program leader on body size, said, “Once people bee overweight, they continue without doubt upwards.54 It is better to avoid getting fat in the first place. For men, weight goes up steadily through life.55Experts have suggested evolution means we are programmed to put on weight rather than lose it. Dieting can make this tendency worse as decreasing calorie intake causes the body to go into starvation mode and reduce the amount of energy it naturally expends, making it even harder to lose weight.56 So eating less and taking more exercise can increase fitness and lower blood pressure.A. They hardly ever go back down.B. Overweight people are born fat.C. Fat people really cant keep the weight off.D. most of those do put it all back on again within a year.E. few of those can keep on exercising and eating less food.F. For women, it starts slowly and accelerates in the mid-thirties.G. But the studys findings do not mean dieting is pointless and useless.五、短文改错57假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。The hot pot, dated back to several thousand years ago, is one of the traditional Chinese diets, which enjoys a wide popularity.

I hope you can e to China to learn more about it.Yours,Li Hua
