25、his old age, he was going bald, which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool. Therefore, biologists at the academy had a wetsuit created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool. Unlike marine mammals, which have a layer of fat to keep them warm, penguins depend on their waterp
26、roof feathers. Without them, Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19 peers played in the water.He was cold; he would shake, said Pam Schaller, a senior biologist. Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm. Then she go
27、t another idea: if wetsuits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific, why not make one for Pierre? Schaller designed the suit, which covered Pierres body and had small openings for his flippers.“I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps, and cut and refit and cut and refit until it l
28、ooked like it was extremely suitable,” she said.One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit, but in fact, they accepted his new look. He swam freely and got along with others well, although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.Schaller couldnt say for sure whe
29、ther the wetsuit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers, but “certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable”.Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back. 56. Pierre felt too cold to swim
30、in the pool because of _.A. not having a layer of blubber B. having few feathers due to old ageC. having no wetsuit D. others penguins rejecting him57. The idea of making a wetsuit for Pierre came from _.A. total invention B. waterproof feathersC. the use of wetsuit on humans D. the use of heat lamp
31、 58. Schaller followed Pierre in order to see _.A. whether other penguins would reject himB. if anywhere of wetsuit needed to be cut and refitC. if the wetsuit kept warmD. whether the wetsuit would keep the feathers from recovering59. The best title of the passage is _.A. Wetsuit for An Old Penguin
32、B. Old Penguin Getting BaldC. Unwilling to Swim D. Strange Look of PierreBDr. Glenn Tisman, a cancer specialist, knew his young neighbor, Ray Bateman, had an unusual mind. But he had no idea at the time that 12 - year old Ray had the ability to become his partner in cancer research. Rays parents rem
33、embered that at age four, Ray surprised them by fixing a broken vacuum cleaner（吸尘器）. When he was ten, he speedily constructed the family color television from a kit. Later, he succeeded in assembling（组装） a complex stereo system after two experts had failed to do the job. When Ray was ten, he convinc
34、ed his parents to buy him a computer. In a short time, Ray was able to do amazing things with the computer. Ray shared his enthusiasm for computers with Dr. Tisman, who used a computer for his research. The two discussed computers and medicine frequently. Amazingly, Ray understood the biology and ch
35、emistry related to Dr. Tismans medical research without any previous instruction. Ray then worked with Dr. Tisman after school. He helped conduct research with the equipment and kept it in working order. The purpose of the research was to test the effectiveness of mixing an old cancer drug with cert
36、ain vitamins. Ray analyzed patient test results by computer, while Dr. Tisman handled all patient contact. Together, they came up with solid research that helped advance cancer treatment. In 1988, 14 - year - old Ray went with Dr. Tisman to a meeting of the American Federation for Clinical Research（
37、AFCR）, where Ray presented their initial research findings. Using terminology（术语） beyond the grasp of most kids his age, Ray told the scientists how the new drug mixture caused fewer and milder side effects for cancer patients. A year later, Ray returned to the meeting to update the findings of his
38、and Dr. Tismans research. By then, he had become well - known for his devotion to finding cures for sick patients. Stories about him appeared in hundred of newspapers around the world. He appeared on television newscasts and talk shows. Ray continued to spend most free hours working with Dr. Tisman.
39、 The two began studying the effects of vitamins on babies inside the womb（子宫）. However, Rays main interest remained cancer treatment, and he continues his research today. 60. According to the passage, Ray_.A. is a boy of many giftsB. is very helpful to his parentsC. learned fast under Dr. Tismans in
40、structionD. stopped working with Dr. Tisman after his success61. What do we know about Dr. Tisman?A. He succeeded in finding cures for cancer. B. He made a new discovery in cancer treatment. C. He convinced Ray to become a partner of him. D. He taught Ray knowledge related to his research. 62. What
41、made Ray first known to the medical world?A. His presentation at AFCR. B. His great skills in computer. C. His devotion to cancer research. D. His appearance on television newscasts. 63. Dr. Tismans research is aimed at _. A. providing different cancer treatmentsB. proving the effects of vitamins on
42、 babiesC. finding the side effects of a cancer drugD. testing the effectiveness of a new drug mixtureWhat should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at
43、mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any especially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory st
44、andard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs. You
45、r school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If no
46、thing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-
47、time job. Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too
48、good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic(认错的) about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work. 64. What is the passage mainly about?A. The importance of working hard at school.B. Choosing a career according to ones strengt
49、hs.C. How to face ones weakness. D. The value of school work.65. The writer thinks that a student have a part-time job is probably _.A. a good way to find out his weak pointsB. one of the best ways of earning extra moneyC. of great use for his work in the futureD. a waste of time he could have spent
50、 on study66. From the passage we learn that if a students school performance is not good, he _.A. should pay more attention to learning skills and developing abilitiesB. will be regretful about his bad resultsC. may also do well in his future work D. should restart his study in school67. The underli
51、ned phrase “be all thumbs” (in Para 3) probably means “_”.A. be clumsy at doing things B. be skillful in doing thingsC. be not interested in certain things D. be easily bored in doing thingsDFor thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the
52、pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of N
53、ottingham called “The Old Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pubs landlord or landlady can always f
54、ind a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.Thats how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do no
55、t have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 1l pm. Previous
56、ly, with 1l pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes long-term health problems for people and problem
57、s with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Mens Clubs”, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of p
58、ubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.68. The passage mainly tells us something about _.A. the past and present of British pubs B. the decline of British pubsC. the long history of British pubs D. the importance of British pubs69. Which may not b
59、e the cause of the decline of British pubs?A. The credit crunch. B. The present closing time.C. The ban of smoking. D. Having no spare money.70. We can infer from the passage that _. A. British people used to like drinking slowlyB. closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsC. binge drinking
60、means drinking less beer D. British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking71. We can see from the last paragraph that the author _. A. is against the admission of too many women to the pubs B. holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubs C. thinks that women in the pubs wi
61、ll cause less social problems D. thinks that British pubs should offer everything you needEEvery object tells a story. Even the most ordinary objects can present to us powerful images. Sometimes it is the ordinary nature of these objects that actually makes them so extraordinary. Such is the case wi
62、th an old leather shoe in a museum in Alaska. At first glance it does not look like much. It is a womans shoe of a style popular in the 1890s. But what is unique(独特的) about this shoe is where it was found. It was discovered on the Checkout Pass, the famous trail used by the people seeking gold in Al
63、aska. Who it belonged to or why it was left there is not known. Was it perhaps dropped by accident as the woman climbed up the 1500 stairs carved outface? Or did she throw away goods that she didnt need in order to travel lighter?Over 100, 000 people with “gold fever” made this trip hoping to become
64、 millionaires. Few of them understood that on their way they would have to cross a harsh wildness. Unprepared for such a dangerous journey, many died of starvation and exposure to the cold weather. The Canadian government finally started requiring the gold seekers to bring one ton of supplies with t
65、hem. This was thought to be enough for a person to survive for one year. They would carry their supplies in backpacks(背包) each weighing up to fifty pounds; it usually took at least 40 trips to get everything to the top and over the pass. Whoever dropped the shoe must have been a brave and determined
66、 woman. Perhaps she was successful and made it to Alaska. Perhaps she had to turn back in defeat. No one will ever know for sure, but what we do know is that she took part in one of the greatest adventures in the 19th century. 72. The ordinary womans leather shoe is considered unusual because _. A.
67、it was an important clue to life in the past B. it was found on a famous trail C. it at one time belonged to a VIP D. it was a fashionable shoe at that time 73. According to this passage, many people who went to Alaska _. A. eventually became millionaires B. brought with them many shoes C. had confl
68、icts with the Eskimos D. were not properly equipped 74. The Canadian government made gold seekers bring one years supplies with them so that _. A. they would not die of hunger and cold B. the army would have enough food for fighting a war C. they would change these goods with the Eskimos D. the supp
69、lies would make Alaska rich 75. No matter what happened to the woman who owned the shoe, _. A. she must have lived a happy life B. she certainly dropped the shoe on purpose C. her adventurous spirit is definitely admired D. her other shoes were equally fashionable 第卷第四部分: 写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节 任务型读写(共10

Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world ignore its importance. As a
71、result, sleep problems are increasingly common.In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa.

73、ery sleepy during the day.Overall, the survey found that ninny people suffer the effects of poor quality sleep, some examples of which are being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of
74、 life, but noise pollution and light pollution also interfere with sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The surveys findings are particularly troubling because large numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping at night. The short-term effects of this are tiredness and trouble con

76、eed to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you.
