18、e than four days. Now, researchers have identified a gene (基因) that helps rice survive longer underwater. They say the discovery will lead to new kinds of rice plants that can survive flooding, and therefore reach their final aim, ensuring more dependable food supplies.Tests are now being done in La
19、os, Bangladesh and India. The researchers say experimental rice plants with the gene have survived underwater as long as two weeks. When flooding happens, most kinds of rice plants cannot get enough oxygen, carbon dioxide or sunlight. But the scientists say crop loss depends on several conditions. T
20、hese include soil conditions and plant age. Others include the amount of time the plant is underwater and the amount of fertilizer (肥料) used on the crop. On a genetic (遗传的) map of rice, the scientists became interested in a group of three genes. They experimented with one of them, a gene known as Su
21、b-One-A. They found that when this gene becomes very active, it improves the ability of rice to survive longer when rice is covered by water. They believe it succeeds because it affects the reaction to hormones (荷尔蒙). They control the ability of a flooded plant to survive. Placing the gene into rice

The researchers are now trying to identify all the genes governed by the Sub-One-A gene. Being able to leave water on rice plants for an additio

A great discovery in the agricultural field BPeople fell in love with Elizabeth Taylor in 1944, when she starred in National Velvet-the story of Velvet Brown, a young girl who wins first place in a famous horse race, At first, the
27、producers of the movie told Taylor that she was too small to play the part of Velvet. However, they waited for her for a few months as she exercised and trainedand added three inches to her height in four months! Her acting in National Velvet is still considered the best by a child actress. Elizabet

In 1963, she received $1 million for her part in Cleopatrathe
30、highest pay received by any star up to that time. Elizabeth Taylor is a legend (传奇人物) of our time. Like Velvet Brown in National Velvet, she has been lucky, she has beauty, fame and wealth.

34、know youre not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles. Do the map reading if youre being driven somewhere. Itll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you re traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the
35、 driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or youll have to move to the back seat. Get a group of friends together and go exploring. Youll need a good map, a compass (指南针), a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies (应急现金). Tell
36、 someone where youre going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back.

37、ich you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc. ) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity.

40、 prepared for sportsDFar from the land of Antarctica(南极洲), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod. For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must hav
41、e some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer. Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fishs blood and measured its freezing point. The fish were taken from seawater that
42、 had a temperature of -1.88 and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture. The scientists next research job
43、 was clear: Find out what in the fishs blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein(蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze
44、 quality and a lowered freezing point. Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules(分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content. It is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glyc
45、oprotein. Or AFGP. 52. What is the text mainly about? A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic. B. A special fish living in freezing waters. C. The ice shelf around Antarctica. D. Protection of the Antarctic cod. 53. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature? A. The seawater has
46、a temperature of -1.88. B. It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture. C. A special protein keeps it from freezing. D. Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05. 54. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. A type of ice-salt mixture. B. A newly found protein. C. Fish blood. D
47、. Sugar molecule. 55. What does “glycol-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean? A. sugar B. ice C. blood D. moleculeENapoleon, as a character in Tolstoys War and Peace, is more than once described as having “fat little hands.” Nor does he “sit well of firmly on the horse.
48、” He is said to be “undersized,” with “short legs” and a “round stomach”. The issue here is not the accuracy of Tolstoys description - it seems not that far off from historical accounts - but his choice of facts: other things that could be said of the man are not said. We are meant to understand the
49、 difference of a warring commander in the body of a fat little Frenchman. Tolstoys Napoleon could be any man wandering in the streets and putting a little of powdered tobacco up his nose - and that is the point. It is a way the novelist uses to show the moral nature of a character. And it turns out
50、that, as Tolstoy has it, Napoleon is a crazy man. In a scene in Book Three of War and Peace, the wars having reached the critical year of 1812, Napoleon receives a representative from the Tsar(沙皇), who has come with peace terms. Napoleon is very angry: doesnt the have more army? He, not the Tsar, is
51、 the one to make the terms. He will destroy all of Europe if this army is stopped. “That is what you will have gained by engaging me in the war!” he shouts. And then, Tolstoy writes, Napoleon “walked silently several times up and down the room, his fat shoulders moving quickly”. Still later, after r
52、eviewing his army amid cheering crowds, Napoleon invites the shaken Russian to dinner. “He raise his hand to the Russiansface,” Tolstoy writes, and “taking him by the ear pulled it gently.” To have ones ear pulled by the Emperor was considered the greatest honor and mark of favor at the French court
53、. “Well, well, why dont you say anything?” said he, as if it was ridiculous in his presence to respect any one but himself, Napoleon. Tolstoy did his research, but the composition is his own. 56. Tolstoys description of Napoleon in War and Peace is _. A. far from the historical facts B. based on the
54、 Russian history C. based on his selection of facts D. not related to historical details 57. Napoleon was angry when receiving the Russian representative because _. A. he thought he should be the one to make the peace terms B. the Tsars peace terms were hard to accept C. the Russians stopped his mil
55、itary movement D. he didnt have any more army of fight with 58. What did Napoleon expect the Russian representative to do? A. To walk out of the room in anger. B. To show agreement with him. C. To say something about the Tsar. D. To express his admiration. 59. Tolstoy intended to present Napoleon as
56、 a man who is _. A. ill-mannered in dealing with foreign guests B. fond of showing off his iron will C. determined in destroying all of Europe D. crazy for power and respect 60. What does the last sentence of the passage imply? A. A writer doesnt have to be faithful to his findings. B. A writer may
57、write about a hero in his own way. C. A writer may not be responsible for what he writes. D. A writer has hardly any freedom to show his feelings.第II卷（非选择题，共50分）第一节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）此题要求改正所给短文中的错误.对标题号的每一行做出判断：如无错误，在该行右边的横线上划（）；如有错误（每行只有一个错误），则按下列情况改正：此行多一个词：把多余的词用斜线划掉，在该行右边横线上写出该词，并也用斜线划掉。此
