Unfortunately, plenty of creepy-crawly critters（爬行生物）like to do
18、 the same thing! Winter is the time when bugs（虫子）invade your house without an invitation. The season can be tough for such creatures. In winter the air is cold, the ground is hard and many trees have no leaves. So bugs do what they have to do to survive. Monarch butterflies head south to warmer clim
19、ates. Ants crowd in deep underground colonies and eat food they have been storing all year. Many insects go into a deep sleep called diapause. Therere different kinds of diapause, but all are similar to hibernation, a time when bigger animals become inactive in the cold. Insects go into an inactive
20、period, too, but it often isnt when the temperature drops. They rely on more dependable signals in the environment. For example, many insects can tell how much sunlight theres each day. They use that to tell themselves when to shut down. Bugs are cold-blood-ed, meaning that their inside temperature
21、is the same as the outside. They cant move much when it gets below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. So they search for any warm place. Theyre looking for protection. These guys have been doing this for 300 million years, so they dont really know theyre coming into your house. The home is a recent event in ter

24、pears in warm areas all the year.C.It is done to keep bugs active in winter.D.It is a deep sleep similar to hibernation.43.According to the text, bugs invade humanshomes to .A.attackB.look for enough foodC.seek for protectionD.show their evolutionary results44.What is the main idea of the text?A.Bug
25、slife on cold wintry days.B.Why do bugs invade your home in winter?C.Good relations between humans and bugs.D.What does diapause mean?BCole Bettles had been rejected by a number of universities when he received an e-mail from the University of California, San Diego, last month, congratulating him on
26、 his admission and inviting him to tour the campus. His mother booked a hotel in San Diego, and the 18-year-old Ojai high school senior arranged for his grandfather, uncle and other family members to meet them at the campus for lunch during the Saturday tour.“They were like Oh my God, thats so aweso
27、me （棒的），” Bettles said. Right before he got in bed, he checked his e-mail one last time and found another message saying the school had made a mistake and his application had been denied.In fact, all 28, 000 students turned away from UC San Diego, in one of the toughest college entrance seasons on r
28、ecord, had received the same incorrect message. The students hopes had been raised and then dashed （破灭） in a cruel twist that shows the danger of instant communications in the Internet age.UCSD admissions director Mae Brown called it an “administrative error” but refused to say who had made the mist
29、ake, or if those responsible would be disciplined （受训）.The e-mail, which began, “Were thrilled that youve been admitted to UC San Diego, and were showcasing （展示） our beautiful campus on Admit Day, ” was sent to the full 46, 000 students who had applied, instead of just the 18, 000 who got in, Brown
30、said.The error was discovered almost immediately by her staff, who sent an apology within hours.“It was really thrilling for a few hours; now hes crushed （压垮），” said Coles mother, Tracy Bettles. “Its really tough on them.”The admissions director said she was in the office on Monday until midnight an
31、swering e-mails and phone calls from disappointed students and their parents. She said she took full responsibility for the error. “We accessed the wrong database. We recognize the incredible pain receiving this false encouragement caused. It was not our intent.”45. How many students received an adm

35、ents hopes and then dashed them.CCollections were the inspiration（灵感） for a project at Thomas Tallis School, which formed part of the Imagine Childrens Literature Festival last autumn. Each child （aged 12-13） beatified a box and wrote a story on the subject of collections to throw inside it. The box
36、es were spread within the Royal Festival Halls Ballroom. Some were left empty to encourageThe subject chosen by Luren was an imaginative one. Its a sort o f Cinderella （灰姑娘） story, she told me, inspired by a collection of letters from her cousin, ha the story these become love letters, burned by a c
37、reel stepmother. Laurens best friend Charlotte is the stepmother. Im in Charlottes story too, says Lauren, and I get run over. Charlottes tale was inspired by the girls coin collection. Weve collected foreign coins for years - since our families went on holiday to Tenerife. she explains. That was be
38、fore the Euro, so we put pesetas in. Lauren continues: I fred a coin in the road, go to get it and get run over. Im in hospital and then I die. Charlotte adds: Or she might not die. I havent decided yet. Millie Murray, who is a tea-novel author, thinks that setting the subject of collections was a u
39、seful inspiration to their creativity rather than a restriction（限制）. In the beginning I thought, Will the children be able to do it? she says. But its been fruitful. Some have their own collection, some have parents who do, and some have wlstten complete stories. Its made them think about something

43、lin prodigies（神童）， I learned, have come in distinct waves from distinct regions. Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked Isaac Stern, one of the worlds greatest violinists, the reason for this phenomenon. “
44、 Its very clear, “ he told me. “ They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill-treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to achieve excellence on a concert stage.” As a result, every Jewish parents dream was
45、 to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West.Another element in the emergence of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field and is able to nurture（培育） talent. Nowadays the most nurturing societies seem to be in the Far East. “ In Japan, a
46、 most competitive society with stronger discipline than ours,” says Isaac Stern, “ children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music. When Western music came to Japan after World War II, that music not only became part of their daily lives, but it became a discipline
47、as well.” The Koreans and Chinese, as we know, are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.Thats a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance plays an important role in the making of a prodigy. J. S. Bach, for example, was the top of several generat
48、ions of musicians, and four of his sons had significant careers in music.53. Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music school because_.A. it would allow them access to a better life in the WestB. Jewish children are born with excellent musical talentC. they wanted th
49、eir children to enter into the professional fieldsD. it would enable the family to get better treatment in their own country54. Nurturing societies as mentioned in the passage refer to societies that_.A. enforce strong discipline on students who want to achieve excellenceB. treasure talent and provi
50、de opportunities for its full developmentC. encourage people to compete with each otherD. promise talented children high positions55. Japan is described in the passage as a country that attaches importance to_.A. all-rounded development B. the learning of Western musicC. strict training of children
51、D. variety in academic studies56. Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies according to the passage?A. A natural gift. B. Extensive knowledge of music.C. Very early training. D. A prejudice-free society.EPeople who drink alcohol earn more at their jobs than non-drinke
52、rs, according to a US study that highlighted “social capital（社交资本）”gained from drinking. The study concluded that drinkers earn 10-14 percent more than teetotalers, and that men who drink socially bring home an additional seven percent in pay.“Social drinking builds social capital,”said Edward Strin
53、g ham, an economics professor,“Social drinkers are outgoing, building relationships, and keeping in contacts, which results in bigger paychecks.”The researchers said the most likely explanation is that drinkers have a wider range of social contacts that help provide better job and business opportuni
54、ties.“Drinkers may be able to socialize more with clients and co-workers, giving drinkers an advantage in important relationships. Drinking may also provide individuals with opportunities to learn people, business, and social skills. ”They also said these conclusions provide arguments against polici
55、es aimed at controlling alcohol use in university and public places.“Not only do anti-alcohol policies reduce drinkers fun, but they may also decrease earnings,”the study said, “One of the consequences of alcohol restrictions is that they push drinking into private behavior. By preventing people fro
56、m drinking in public, anti-alcohol policies ignores one of the most important aspects of drinking: increased social capital.”The researchers found some differences in the economic effects of drinking among men and women. They concluded that men who drink earn 10 percent more than non-drinkers and wo
57、men drinkers earn 14 percent more than non-drinkers.However, unlike men, who get a 7 percent income increase from drinking in bars, women drinkers who visit bars frequently do not show higher earnings than those who do not visit bars.57. The underlined word in Paragraph 2 refers to _A. women drinker
58、s B. co-workersC. non-drinkers D. men-drinkers58. Whats the best title of the passage?A. Income Differences Between Drinkers And Non-drinkersB. To Build Social Capital, Drink!C. Anti-alcohol Policy is Not ReasonableD. Drinking Helps Increase Income59. Whats NOT the consequence of anti-alcohol policy
59、 ?A. More people drink in private.B. There are less alcohol in universities.C. Drinkers income increased because they spend less money on drinking.D. Drinkers get less fun from drinking.60. What can we infer from the result of the study?A. To build social capital, you have no choice but to drink.B.
60、Drinking is a good and common way to increase social capital.C. Drinkers build wider social contacts.D. Drinkers may be provided more opportunities.第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项.Can I help you? 61 Let me see. One ladys skirt and one mans overcoat. 62 Is next Thursday s
