They allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visiting, from the official to the unusual. Meanwhile,
20、 hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world. Here are two of our favorites:Green MapsGreen Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. Users add information with a set of icons (图标), making
21、it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it. At present there are over five hundred map projects being developed in 54 countries. Green Maps advertised idea is “think global, map local”. It is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of information of a place, ranging fro
22、m community gardens to good places of bird watching.Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with producers through the Green Maps website.Maps MashupsMany people use online maps developed by Google, b
23、ut not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Maps Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to exsiting maps to express a certain topic. The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It ranges from the extremely usefu
24、l, such as where all the World Heritage Sites are, to the most bizarre (古怪的)，such as where Americas drunkest cities are. With the mashups added to the basic Google Maps, a multi-layered (多层的) map can be created.41. According to the passage, which of the following is a characteristic of Green Maps?A.
25、 Aiming at environmental protection.B. Introducing local attractions with icons.C. Offering advice to independent travelers.D. Collecting icons worldwide for local maps.42.Which of the following icons is most probably NOT used in Green Maps?A. B.C. D. 43. “Map Mashups” is named with the word “mashup
26、s” because _.A. it is produced by users all over the worldB. it gathers various kinds of informationC. it shares icons with Green MapsD. it is a branch of Google Maps44. What do Green Maps and Map Mashups have in common?A. They are created by local people.B. They are environmentally friendly.C. User
27、s can edit maps on the Inernet.D. Users need to communicate with producers.B Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job, and the
28、plan fell apart. “I have two kids in college, and I want to say come home, but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,” says Jacobs.The Jacobs family did work out a solution: They asked and received more aid from the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum
29、 amount through the federal loan program. They will each graduate with $20,000 of debt, but at least they will be able to finish school. With unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear more families like the Jacobs. More students are applying for aid, and more families expect t
30、o need student loans. College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around. At the same time, tuition continues to rise. A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007
31、, while average family income rose just 147%. Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade, “If we go on this way for another 25 years, we wont have an affordable system of higher education,” says Patrick M. Callan, president of the center. “The middle class families have been financin
32、g it through debt. They will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that means a huge amount of debt.” Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. The good news, however, is tha
33、t federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted. 45. How did the Jacobs manage to solve their problem?A. They asked their kids to come home. B. They borrowed $20,000 from the school.C. They encouraged their twin sons t
34、o do part-time jobs.D. They got help from the school and the federal government.46. Financial aid administrators believe that _.A. more families will face the same problem as the JacobsB. the government will receive more letters of complaintC. college tuition fees will double soonD. Americas unemplo
35、yment will fall 47. What can we learn about the middle class families from the text? A. They blamed the government for the tuition increase.B. Their income remained steady in the last decade. C. They will try their best to send kids to college.D. Their debts will be paid off within 25 years.48. Acco
36、rding to the last paragraph, the government will _. A. provide most students with scholarshipsB. dismiss some financial aid administratorsC. stop the companies from making student loansD. go on providing financial support for college studentsCAn idea that started in Seattles public library has sprea
37、d throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same town.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on
38、the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched the If All of Seattle Read the Same Book project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bri
39、ng people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the One Book, One Chicago program. As a result, reading clubs and nei
40、ghborhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the hug
41、e and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity can be achieved. Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion abo
42、ut a book itself.As Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.49. What is the purpose of the project launched by N
43、ancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers. B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service. D. To promote the friendship between cities.50. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?A. In large communities with little sense of un
44、ityB. In large cities where libraries are far from homeC. In medium-sized cities with a diverse populationD. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached51. The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean .A. exchanged ideas with each otherB. discussed the meaning of a wor
45、dC. gained life experience D. used the same language52. According to Nancy, the degree of success of the project is judged by .A. the careful selection of a proper bookB. the growing popularity of the writersC. the number of people who benefit from readingD. the number of books that each person read
46、sDThe Internet will open up new vistas (前景), create the global village - you can make new friends all around the world. That, at least, is what it promised us. The difficulty is that it did not take the human mind into account. The reality is that we cannot keep relationship with more than a limited
47、 number of people. No matter how hard the Internet tries to put you in communication, its best efforts will be defeated by your mind.The problem is twofold（双重的）. First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number is about 150 and
48、is set by the size of our brain. Second, the quality of your relationships depends on the amount of time you invest （投入）in them. We invest a lot in a small number of people and then distribute whats left among as many others as we can. The problem is that if we invest little time in a person, our en
49、gagement with that person will decline until eventually it dies into “someone I once knew”.This is not, of course, to say that the Internet doesnt serve a socially valuable function. Of course it does. But the question is not that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to include t
50、he rest of the world, but that you can keep your relationships with your existing friends going even though you have to move to the other side of the world.In one sense, thats a good thing. But it also has a disadvantage. If you continue to invest in your old friends even though you can no longer se
51、e them, then certainly you arent using your time to make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that probably isnt the best use of your time. Meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other, face to face. The Internet will slow down the rate with which relationshi
52、ps end, but it wont stop that happening eventually.53. What is stressed in the first paragraph?A. The present situation of the Internet.B. The difficulty in communication on the Internet.C. The socially valuable function of the Internet.D. The role of the human mind in the Internet communication.54.
53、 The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragraph probably means “_”.A. appointment B. connection C. interview D. agreement55. According to the passage, the author holds the view that _ .A. the Internet fails to play so valuable a role in communication as it promisedB. the Internet determine
54、s the quality of social relationshipsC. the Internet greatly increases the size of social circlesD. the Internet communication is no less effective than the face-to-face talk56. What is the authors attitude towards the use of the Internet to strengthen relationships?A. He is uncertain about it. B. H
55、e is hopeful of it.C. He approves of it. D. He doubts it.EHuman remains of ancient settlements will be reburied and lost to science under a law that threatens research into the history of humans in Britain, a group of leading archaeologists(考古学家) say. In a letter addressed to the justice secretary,
56、Ken Clarke, 40 archaeologists write of their “deep and widespread concern” about the issue. It centers on the law introduced by the Ministry of Justice in 2008 which requires all human remains unearthed in England and Wales to be reburied within two years, regardless of their age. The decision means
57、 scientists have too little time to study bones and other human remains of national and cultural significance.“Your current requirement that all archaeologically unearthed human remains should be reburied, whether after a standard period of two years or further special extension, is contrary to basi
58、c principles of archaeological and scientific research and of museum practice,” they write. The law applies to any piece of bone uncovered at around 400 dig sites, including the remains of 60 or so bodies found at Stonehenge in 2008 that date back to 3,000 BC. Archaeologists have been granted a temp
59、orary extension to give them more time, but eventually the bones will have to be returned to the ground.The arrangements may result in the waste of future discoveries at sites such as Happisburgh in Norfolk, where digging is continuing after the discovery of stone tools made by early humans 950,000
60、years ago. If human remains were found at Happisburgh, they would be the oldest in northern Europe and the first indication of what this species was. Under the current practice of the law those remains would have to be reburied and effectively destroyed.Before 2008, guidelines allowed for the proper
61、 preservation and study of bones of sufficient age and historical interest, while the Burial Act 1857 applied to more recent remains. The Ministry of Justice assured archaeologists two years ago that the law was temporary, but has so far failed to revise it.Mike Parker Pearson, an archaeologist at S
62、heffield University, said: “Archaeologists have been extremely patient because we were led to believe the ministry was sorting out this problem, but we feel that we cannot wait any longer.”The ministry has no guidelines on where or how remains should be reburied, or on what records should be kept.57
63、. According to the passage, scientists are unhappy with the law mainly because _.A. it is only a temporary measure on the human remainsB. it is unreasonable and thus destructive to scientific researchC. it was introduced by the government without their knowledgeD. it is vague about where and how to
64、rebury human remains58. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Temporary extension of two years will guarantee scientists enough time.B. Human remains of the oldest species were dug out at Happisburgh.C. Human remains will have to be reburied despite the extension of t
65、ime.D. Scientists have been warned that the law can hardly be changed.59. What can be inferred about the British law governing human remains?A. The Ministry of Justice did not intend it to protect human remains.B. The Burial Act 1857 only applied to remains uncovered before 1857.C. The law on human
66、remains hasnt changed in recent decades.D. The Ministry of Justice has not done enough about the law.60. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. New discoveries should be reburied, the government demands.B. Research time should be extended, scientists require.C. Law on human
67、 remains needs thorough discussion, authorities say.D. Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archaeologists warn.第二节 补全对话 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项多余选项。 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Hello, Gerry speaking. Hello, Gerry.
