27、 Matt Owens of New Zealand was out minding his own business one day when he came across an injured magpie on the side of the road. The poor bird looked completely alone. 【1】

After spending plenty of time caring for his new friend, whom he named Swoop, Matt helped him walk and even fly. 【2】 However, the grateful bird chose to stay with and his cat instead!

At first, Matt was a little hesitant to introduce Swoop to Mowgli because so many cats love to chase birds. But since Swoop was part of their family. Matt sat down with Mowgli and helped the cat to accept his new brother. 【3】 Today, Swoop not only has an adorable relationship with Matt, but he’s also great pals with Mowgli. They just hang out with each other all the time.

【4】 In fact, the day the two of them met was the very same day Matt found out his dad had cancer. He experienced so much. It was his care for Swoop that gave him something positive to focus on during an otherwise difficult season.

Like any good parent, Matt fully expects that Swoop will leave him at some point to start his own family. 【5】 Matt is cherishing every moment they have together!

A.It worked out perfectly!

B.It was not easy for Mowgli.

C.While it's a bittersweet thought,

D.As Swoop only returns from time to time,

E.Therefore, Matt decided to take him home.

F.Swoop has made Matt's life better in more ways than one.

G.Finally, the time came to let Swoop fly back into the wild.

28、 Young sunflowers turn and swing every day. New findings add to evidence that the plants are animal-like.

Harmer, a professor in the University of California at Davis, Department of Plant Biology, carried out a series of experiments on sunflowers in the field pots outdoors and in indoor growth chambers.

By staking plants so that they could not move, Harmer showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun. He also noticed that sunflowers prevented from moving were not as tough and leafy as those that were free to move. When plants were moved indoor with a settled overhead light, they continued to swing back and forth for a few days.

The indoor plants did start tracking the "sun" again when the apparent source of lighting was moved across the room. The plants could reliably track the movement and return at night when the artificial day was close to a 24-hour cycle, but not when it was closer to 30 hours.

When sunflowers track the sun, the east sides of their stems grew more rapidly than the west sides. At night, the west sides grew faster as the stem swung the other way. The team identified a number of genes that were expressed at higher levels on the sunward side of the plant during the day, or on the other side at night. A plant growth-regulating hormone, called auxin, appears to be a key driver.

The "dance” to the sun cycle obviously slows when the sunflower matures （成熟） and its flowers open up. At that point, the plants stop moving during the day and settle down facing the sun in the east.

"Bees like warm flowers." Hanner said, adding that the bees are cold-blooded, so landing on a warm flower saves them energy and perhaps feels really good.

“The morning warmth changes the flowers in a way to make them more appealing to insects, perhaps causing them to release more attractive scents earlier in the day." he said "We're currently testing this idea."

【1】Why did Harmer do the experiment on sunflowers?

A. To see how sunflowers grow up

B. To study why sunflowers track the sun.

C. To show what sunflowers' genes are.

D. To check if sunflowers swing in cloudy days.

【2】What does the underlined word "staking" probably mean in Paragraph 3?

A. fixing B. tracking

C. growing D. searching

【3】What is the advantage of sunflowers' dance to the sun?

A. They attract more insects. B. They save more energy.

C. They mature more rapidly D. They produce more flowers.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A. The power of the sunlight.

B. The hidden connection between animal and the plants.

C. Why do sunflower always track the sun.

D. The growth of the sunflower.

29、Earth is far more alive than we previously thought, according to “deep life” studies that reveal a rich ecosystem beneath our feet that is almost twice the size of all the world's oceans. Regardless of extreme heat, no light and intense pressure, scientists estimate if has between 15 billion and 23 billion tonnes of microorganisms. “It's like finding a whole new reservior of life on Earth,” said Karen Lloyd, an associate professor at the University of Tennessee.

Results suggest 70 percent of Earth's bacteria and archaea exist in the subsurface. One organism found 2. 5 kilometers below the surface has been buried for millions of years and may not rely on all energy from the sun. Also, the methanogen (产甲烷菌) has found a way to create methane in this environment, which it may not use to reproduce or divide, but use to replace or repair broken parts. Lengths of their lives were completely different. Some microorganisms have been alive for thousands of years, barely moving except with shifts in earthquakes or eruptions. They're just active inside, with less energy than people thought possible to support life.

The team consists of 1, 200 scientists from 52 countries in disciplines ranging from geology and microbiology to chemistry and physics. The scientists say they will present their findings before the American Geophysical Union’s annual meeting opens this week, which are made possible by technical advances on drills and microscopes.

The scientists have been wondering about the point beyond which life can't exist, but the deeper they dig, the more life they find. There is a temperature maximum - currently 122 ℃ - but they believe this record will be broken if they keep exploring and developing mor advanced instruments.

Questions remain, including how the microbes interact with chemical processes, and what this might reveal about how life and Earth coevolved.

【1】What do the scientists find about the underground microorganisms?

A．They can’t reproduce and divide.

B．They’re the oldest living things.

C．Some of them consume no energy.

D．Some of them almost always keep still.

【2】What can we learn about the reseach from paragraph 3?

A．It lasts for aound one year.

B．It is conducted in 52 countries.

C．It involves efforts from multiple fields.

D．It promotes technical development.

【3】Why do the scientists drill deep?

A．To find the depth limit of life.

B．To break their previous record.

C．To discover more ancient microorganisms.

D．To detect the highest subsurface temperature.

【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A．Earth’s Depths Are Full of Life

B．Organisms Live Better Underground

C．Earth Is Far Beyond Human Exploration

D．Subsurface Life Differs from That on Land

32、 Saddleworth Moor in the north of England is a bare place. It seemed almost wired to me, then, that anyone should _____ the building of seven wind turbines( 风力发电机) to produce clean, renewable energy. Surely this was the perfect place to situate them--- basically dull, unattractive to tourists and ----- _____ ---windy. Yet Saddleworth is becoming another battleground in an increasingly confusing _____ over wind farming and the future of the planet.

Typical of this confusion is hearing Professor David Bellamy _____ the fight against wind farms. I had always thought of Professor Bellamy as an environmentalist had made the _____ assumption that he would be a natural supporter of wind power. However, on reflection, Bellamy would be better described as a conservationist, whose main aim is to preserve natural habitats of plants and animals from destruction, rather than a(n) _____ on climate change. He has fought against other renewable energies that _____ wildlife and wildness, and has described the wind turbines as weapons of mass destruction killing birds and bats.

Bellamy, along with other opponents, has argued the wind farms are in fact _____, and are only commercially successfully because they are so heavily funded. This argument has been put forward by several newspaper commentators recently , who have then gone to _____ nuclear power. This doesn’t take into account years of _____ from Greens who claim that nuclear power is both expensive and dangerous. And yet nuclear energy has recently been _____ by a leading green scientist , Professor James Lovelock, who was one of the first to draw attention to the problem of climate change. He argues that renewable energy such as wind simply cannot provide sufficient electricity for our energy needs.

And so it goes on. There are so many _____ claims, each apparently fronted by some outstanding scientists and backed up by a lot of statics. So who’s actually right? What’s the right solution? What _____ me is that we will take so long in deciding that it will be too late. The damage will have been done. Yet what I also _____ is how convenient these conflicting arguments are. We can avoid making any changes to our personal lifestyles by just doing nothing. Global warming isn’t down to me going to Barcelona by air for the weekend or having a dishwasher or driving everywhere; no, it’s because those people in Saddleworth won’t let us build our _____!

【1】A.take over B.call for C.look into D.object to

【2】A.vice versa B.or rather C.above all D.to date

【3】A.debate B.concern C.advantage D.control

【4】A.leading B.reporting C.watching D.abandoning

四、短文填空（共4题，共 20分）

34、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Expressions about water are almost as common as water itself. But many of the expressions using water have unpleasant meanings.

The expression “to be in hot water” is one of them. It is a very old expression, which can be 【1】 back to 500 years ago. The expression is used to mean being in trouble. One story says it got that meaning from the custom of throwing extremely hot water down on enemies attacking a castle.

Being in “deep water” is almost the same as being in “hot water”. When you are in deep water, you are in a difficult 【2】. Imagine a person who cannot swim being thrown in water over his head. You are in deep water when you are facing a problem that you do not have the ability to solve. The problem is too deep. You can be in deep water, for example, if you invest in stocks in complete 【3】 of the stock market.

"Water over the dam" is another expression about a past event. It is something that cannot be 【4】. The expression comes from the idea that water that has 【5】 a dam cannot be brought back again. When a friend is 【6】 by a mistake she has made, you might tell her to forget about it. You say it is water over the dam.

Another common expression, "to hold water," is about the strength or weakness of an idea or opinion that you may be arguing about. It probably comes from the way of testing the 【7】 of a container. If it can hold water, it is strong and has no holes in it. If your 【8】 can hold water, it is strong and does not have any holes. If it does not hold water, then it is weak and can not be 【9】.

"Throwing cold water" also is an expression that deals with an idea or 【10】. For example, you want to buy a new car because the old one has some problems. But you wife "throws cold water" on the idea, because she says a new car costs too much

35、

Rapidly advancing technology and its impact on education has been a subject of debate. How can schools equip students with the skills they need to succeed in a challenging job market?

Since technology is driving these changes, there is a theory that governments should keep focusing on STEM subjects. These are often referred to as “hard skills,” which are 【1】 in primary school and right through to university level. In the meantime, ‘soft skills’ are being 【2】.

This is a mistake. Much evidence suggests that soft skills are far more 【3】 to graduates in the long term. Research from Harvard University on the global job market has shown that STEM- related careers grew strongly between 1989 and 2000 but have slowed down since. In contrast, jobs in the creative industries----the sector probably most 【4】 with the need for soft skills---are growing rapidly. Soft skills are, in fact, increasingly in demand in the workplace: Google cites creativity, leadership 【5】 and communication skills as top requirements for both potential and current employees.

So why are soft skills so highly 【6】 for?

With the rapid evolution of technology, a focus on hard skills leaves students 【7】 to change, as these often have a short shelf life. According to research by World Economic Forum, more than one in four adults reports a mismatch between their skills and those needed for their job role. If soft skills are taught well, these skills should enable students to adapt to change more easily and progress further in their 【8】 career.

Of course, technical skills are important. But without the curriculum placing equal--- if not greater --- 【9】 on soft skills, our education systems are missing a huge trick. Hard skills may help a student get a job in a particular industry, but soft skills will help them disrupt it, achieving a wider 【10】 in their chosen field.

36、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Driving an electric car 【1】 to the protection of environment, or so the marketing departments of their makers would have you believe. Yet a report which analyzes car emissions presents a rather different picture. A battery-powered car recharged with 【2】 generated by coal-fired power stations, it found, is likely to be more harmful. It could cause more than three times as many deaths from pollution as a 【3】 petrol-driven vehicle.

The study was carried out by the University of Minnesota. The researchers estimated how levels of fine particulate matter (细颗粒物) and ground-level ozone — two important 【4】 of air pollution — would change when a car is powered by different ways.

It was no surprise that electric cars whose batteries were recharged with power from wind, solar or hydro-electric sources came out to be virtually free from harmful 【5】. They were estimated to cause 231 deaths over the course of a year, compared with 878 for petrol cars. Electric cars recharged with power from natural gas-fired stations were also a lot less harmful than petrol-driven ones, with 439 deaths. But if those same electric cars were recharged 【6】 by coal, they would be responsible for over 3,000 deaths.

Biofuels also caused more health problems than petrol. But diesel, which often 【7】 concern about pollution, is slightly cleaner than petrol. This is because the study assumes for all cars that emission-control technologies will be more widely used, especially particulate filters which have a remarkable effect on cleaning diesel 【8】.
