36、gured out. Shes designed a master scheme that connects plants and animals, all working in concert to keep every living thing in balance.This is especially obvious in places like central Africa and in South American tropical rainforests where certain animals help keep trees safe and healthy, which is
37、 critical as trees absorb vast amounts of planetwarming carbon pollution.Recent research warns that losing the creatures that nurture trees puts forests in danger. This, by extension, is helping to accelerate dangerous climate change.In central Africa, for example, elephants eat fastgrowing trees, m
38、aking room for those that grow more slowly. The slowgrowing treeswith their very dense woodstore more carbon than the thinner, fasterdeveloping ones. Without elephants, more carbon would accumulate in the atmosphere, worsening climate change, according to a new study that used computer models to pro
39、ject what could happen if elephant populations continue to decrease or become extinct.“Africa may once have contained 10 million elephants from the Mediterranean to the Cape, in every habitat except extreme desert. In 1970, there may have been a million left. By the end of the 1980s, there were half
40、 that number, mostly killed for the ivory trade，” said Stephen Blake, assistant professor of biology at St. Louis University.By killing elephants, poachers(偷猎者) rob slowgrowing trees of their guardian. They also slow the growth of new trees. Elephants blaze(开辟) trails and disperse(散播) seeds as they
41、look for food “Elephants are basically the gardeners of the forest，” Blake said. “They disperse over 100 species of seeds, and disperse more of them over longer distances than other dispersers.”Blake, who has spent nearly 20 years in Africa working in elephant research and conservation, mourns their
42、 fate, describing them as “a complex society of intelligent, caring emotional animals who respect their grandmothers and mourn their dead，” and condemns those who neglect their duty to save them.“We will go to Marsthere is no doubthumans are too smart not to，” he said. “Yet we do not have the wisdom
43、 to protect elephants and their forest environment that do so much for our physical, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing.”()58. Elephants help keep slowgrowing trees safe and healthy by _A. providing living space for themB. dispersing seeds when searching for foodC. decreasing in number and reducing
44、carbon accumulationD. protecting them in the forest from being cut down()59. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The world is changing at a faster speed than before.B. People are intelligent enough to protect the environment.C. What we have done to protect elephants is far from satisfactory
45、.D. Animals are so smart that they care much about the wellbeing of humans.()60. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Elephants are in danger of dying out in the near future.B. Elephants are fighting climate change in ways humans cant.C. Animals are assumed to be the gardeners
46、of the forest.D. Animals are accelerating dangerous climate change.CLondon, New York, Tokyo and Paristhese famous cities have a commanding influence on the world economy and are home to millions of people, as well as internationally famous arts, culture and educational institutions. But they are har
47、dly representative of the rest of the worlds cities. While 54% of the global population live in cities, around half of those live in cities that have 500，000 inhabitants or fewer.These “ordinary” cities can be overlooked by politicians, investors, researchers and big businesses. But they are dynamic
48、 places with many layers of social, cultural and economic significance. After experiencing a period of postindustrial decline, many such cities are considering urban regeneration(再生) programmes.But that doesnt mean they have to follow the same path as other urban areas. In fact, the research into ur
49、ban development has found that ordinary cities can avoid some of the illeffects of regeneration, by embracing what makes them unique.At the turn of the century, city leaders became increasingly interested in the idea of the “creative city”. The idea was to encourage a “creative class” of talented wo
50、rkers to make their homes and businesses in cities, by creating urban spaces that are open, inclusive and diverse, as well as attractive and technologically advanced.“Regeneration” became a buzzword associated with these types of strategies, which seek to repurpose seemingly disused or rundown space
51、s to support an economy led by creative and technological industries. The apparent success of creative city policies was seen in postindustrial centres such as Detroit, US, following investments in cultural, artistic and musical urban renewal.Such policies swiftly became the goto strategy for seemin
52、gly “ordinary” postindustrial cities around the world, even resulting in new rankings that pit cities against each other, based on criteria including entrepreneurship(创业精神), urban leadership and “liveability”. Having plenty of former industrial spaces that can be adapted for new uses, and a desire t
53、o be noticed on the national or global stage, encourages investment in urban regeneration from both public and private sources.Yet regeneration programmes inspired by the creative city agenda can cause problems. Property developers(地产开发商) and foreign investors have recognized the economic potential
54、of real estate(房地产) in “creative” cities. This has led to rocketing land costs, and many lowincome residents have felt the effects of being displaced from their homes.Yet as more cities seek to emphasize their cultural assets(资产), city leaders and policy makers must be aware of the negative impacts
55、that can arise if local residents are not central to the decisionmaking process. This emphasizes the need to consider local contexts and communities before operating copycat creative policies.()61. Some famous cities cant represent the rest of the worlds cities in that _A. they are always ignored by
56、 politicians, researchers and businessmenB. they accommodate millions of people but dont contribute to the world economyC. about a quarter of global population live in middlesized and small citiesD. not all famous arts, culture and educational organizations are distributed there()62. What measure wa
57、s probably taken by cities like Detroit to promote city development?A. Using culture and art as a driving force.B. Forcing lowincome residents to move.C. Following the same path as some big cities.D. Encouraging industrial investment continuously.()63. What does the author want to stress in the pass
58、age?A. Cities should copy regeneration programmes.B. Cities should compete with each other based on some criteria.C. Cities should seek financial support from sources around the world.D. Cities should consider regional factors before using creative policies.()64. What does the passage mainly talk ab
59、out?A. Ordinary cities successfully avoid illeffects of development.B. Ordinary cities dont have to copy trends to regenerate.C. Ordinary cities are trying to recover from postindustrial decline.D. Ordinary cities are dynamic places with social importance.DThe professor“A teacher affects eternity(永恒
60、); he can never tell where his influence stops.”Henry AdamsHe was eight years old. A telegram came from the hospital, and since his father, a Russian immigrant, could not read English, Morrie had to break the news, reading his mothers death notice like a student read in front of the class. “We regre
61、t to inform you.” he began.On the morning of the funeral, Morries relatives came down the steps of his tenement building on the poor Lower East Side of Manhattan.At the cemetery, Morrie watched as they shoveled dirt into his mothers grave. He tried to recall the tender moments they had shared when s
62、he was alive. She had operated a candy store until she got sick, after which she mostly slept or sat by the window, looking frail and weak. Sometimes she would yell out for her son to get her some medicine, and young Morrie, playing stickball in the street, would pretend he did not hear her. In his
63、mind he believed he could make the illness go away by ignoring it.How else can a child deal with death?Morries father, whom everyone called Charlie, had come to America to escape the Russian Army. He worked in the fur business, but constantly out of a job. Uneducated and barely able to speak English
64、, he was terribly poor, and the family was on the public assistance much of the time. Sometimes, to make money, Morrie and his younger brother, David, would wash porch steps together for a nickel(镍币)One morning, David couldnt move. He had polio(小儿麻痹症)For a long timeas his brother was taken back and
65、forth to a special medical home and was forced to wear braces on his legs, which left him limpingMorrie felt responsible.So in the mornings, he went to synagogue(犹太教会堂) and he stood among the swaying men in their long black coats and he asked God to take care of his dead mother and his sick brother.
66、And in the afternoons, he stood at the bottom of the subway steps and sold magazines, turning whatever money he made over to his family to buy food.In the evenings, he watched his father eat in silence, hoping forbut never gettinga show of affection, communication, warmth.At nine years old, he felt
67、as if the weight of a mountain were on his shoulders.But a saving embrace came into Morries life the following year: his new stepmother, Eva. She was a short Romanian immigrant with plain features, curly brown hair, and the energy of two women. She had a glow(光) that warmed the otherwise murky atmos
68、phere his father created. She talked when her new husband was silent, she sang songs to the children at night. Morrie took comfort in her smoothing voice, her school lessons, her strong character. When his brother returned from the medical home, still wearing braces from the polio, the two of them s
69、hared a rollaway bed in the kitchen of their apartment, and Eva would kiss them goodnight. Morrie waited on those kisses like a puppy waits on milk, and he felt, deep down, that he had a mother again.There was no escaping their poverty, however. Because of the Depression, Morries father found even l
70、ess work in the fur business.Still, despite their circumstances, Morrie was taught to love and to care. And to learn. Eva would accept nothing less than excellence in school, because she saw education as the only antidote to their poverty. She herself went to night school to improve her English. Mor
71、ries love for education was hatched in her arms.He studied at night, by the lamp at the kitchen table. And in the mornings he would go to synagogue to say Kaddishthe memorial prayer for the deadfor his mother. He did this to keep her memory alive.“What will you do？” Eva would ask him.“I dont know，”
72、he would say. He ruled out law, because he didnt like lawyers, and he ruled out medicine, because he couldnt take the sight of blood.“What will you do？”It was only through default that the best professor I ever had became a teacher.()65. Why didnt Morrie respond to Mothers yelling for medicine?A. He
73、 didnt know how to help his mother.B. He was too focused on playing stickball.C. He was lost in tender moments they shared in the past.D. He was too young to understand what was happening to his family.()66. After Eva joined in the family, Morrie _A. began to enjoy a materially rich lifeB. witnessed
74、 his father changing the atmosphereC. partly recovered from the sufferings in his lifeD. was forced to pursue academic achievements()67. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “antidote”？A. Alternative. B. Credit. C. Exception. D. Solution.()68. What gives Morrie the ini

Innocent and adventurous. B. Energetic and ambitious.C. Responsible and diligent. D. Optimistic and rel

77、othes is one of Andersens bestknown fables. Conmen fool the monarch into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious.The moral is that people are often too hidebound(
78、迂腐的) by social convention to state their views. How many companies have ploughed ahead with expensive projects that were favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts? In his new book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing
79、with this problem is “cognitive diversity”， in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds. It is not just about selecting people for teams from both sexes and various ethnicities. Hire only Cambridge politics graduates or Harvard MBAs or Stanfor
80、d software engineers and they will have studied under the same professors and absorbed similar world views regardless of their gender or skin colour.There is another element to selecting a good team: ensuring that those viewpoints are heard and respected. That may not happen if those in charge are o
81、verbearing(专横的). A study of over 300 projects by the Rotterdam School of Management found that those led by junior managers were more likely to succeed than those led by senior managersmaybe because other team members were less scared about pointing out potential dangers to someone lower down the pe
82、cking order(权势等级)The ability to speak up within an organization, without fear of punishment, is known as “psychological safety”. Mr. Syed cites a study of teams at Google, which found that selfreported psychological safety was by far the most important factor behind successful teamwork at the techno
83、logy giant.One way to overcome shyness while brainstorming, for instance, is for everyone to write down their ideas but ensure their names are never known. That way opinions about thoughts are less closely tied to the seniority of the thinker and can be tested against each other with less fear or fa
84、vour.Increasing the number and range of ideas on offer may be the secret of success. As Mr. Syed writes, the willingness to share knowledge pays off in a world of complexity. Another advantage of diversity is that outsiders can spot profitable opportunities that insiders may miss. Immigrants account
85、 for 13% of the American population but 27.5% of those who start a new business. By their nature, migrants have more getupandgo than the average personotherwise they wouldnt move.

117、t 10Historians are warning that some ancient British structures are being threatened by climate change.One of the most affected places is around the Orkney Islands, which are off the northern coast of Scotland. The area is home to more than 3，000 historical places. But, the islands have been serious
118、ly affected by severe weather events in recent years. Some structures on the islands were built during the Iron Age, Viking rule and the Middle Ages.Experts say that about 1，000 historical sites are under threat.
