But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet awaystraight up. A decade ago, adopting the infrared(红外线)scan
14、ning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole fie
15、ld, which invariably includes plants that dont have pest problems.Even better, Paleys Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data w
16、ere transformed into a colourcoded map showing where plants were running “fevers”. Farmers could then spotspray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and lo
17、ngterm backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the Unit
18、ed States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.31Plants will se

21、to agriculture met with some difficulties_.Aits high costBthe lack of official supportCthe lack of financial supportDits failure to help increase productionBNuclearpowered aircraft carriers are considered one of the most important marine weapons in the 20th century. So far, only two countries in the
22、 world, the USA and France, have ever produced them. But these fearful fighting machines are about to enter Asia.The US Navy said last month that one of its nine nuclearpowered aircraft carriers will be sent to Japan to replace the diesel(柴油)powered carrier Kitty Hawk in 2008. In an agreement on Oct
23、ober 30, the two countries also planned to level up their military (军事的) cooperation and the USA called for Japan to take a larger role in alliance military moves.It will be the first time that a nuclearpowered carrier is based in Japan. Bombed by US forces in World War at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Ja
24、pan is the only world country to have been attacked by a nuclear weapon. Therefore, the citizens are highly sensitive to where nuclearpowered weapons are based.“A radiation leak at Yokosuka would kill 100,000 people as far away as Tokyo, and could cause billions of dollars in damage,” said Masahiko
25、Goto, leader of a protest group in Yokosuka. His group has collected more than 300,000 signatures of people across Japan opposed to the nuclear carrier.The 44yearold Kitty Hawk, the US Navys oldest active ship, has been based in Yokosuka since 1998. It had returned to the US to be decommissioned in
26、2008. The new carrier, yet to be unveiled,_will travel faster, be capable of supporting longer operations and carry with it the Navys most modern technology.Experts pointed that this change is not only to strengthen the USJapan military alliance but also to keep the military power of China and North
27、 Korea within limits. However, even Japanese experts dont believe that the two countries are threats to the region.“There is no need for Japan to have a nuclear carrier as defense,” said Tetsuo Maeda, an international relations professor at Tokyo International University. He said that the change of
28、ship indicates an increased military capability in the region, much more than what is needed.35With such a formidable weapon to enter its country, Japanese citizens _.Aare aware of its benefits to the countryBare anxious about its potential danger Care curious about the advanced technology Dare agai
29、nst where the carrier will be based36The replacement of the aircraft carrier is intended to_.Aset up a kind of base in Japan Bstrengthen the USJapan military allianceCshow Japans greater military capability Dget rid of the dated marine weapon37From the story, we learn that_.Ano other countries excep

31、eiled” in the fifth paragraph probably means_.Aperfected Bdiscussed aboutCproduced Dbrought to viewCChina_is_going_green. In order to reduce air pollution and oilshortages, automobile manufacturers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market. Toyotas hybrid
32、car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week. Lets have a look at the new car.Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power. Hybrid cars run off a rechargeable battery and gasoline. Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gasoline engines.
33、They run at 99 percent of their power when the car is cruising (匀速行驶). A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration is needed.Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine. The first thing you notice is how much quieter it is than a traditional
34、car. At this point, the cars gasoline engine is dormant (休眠). The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24 km/h. If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no waste gas gives off.The onboard(车载的) computer makes th
35、e decision about when to use a gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two. If you go over 24 km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油门), you are actually telling the computer how fast you want to go.The electronic motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries.
36、When driving at high speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car, but also charges the batteries. Any time you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator and produce electricity to recharge the batteries. As a consequence, the cars batteries will last for aroun
37、d 200,000 miles.39The author writes this passage mainly to_.Ateach people how to drive a hybrid car Bintroduce a new kind of “green” car Cshow how to save their gasoline when driving a car Dannounce plans to develop hybrid vehicles for China40The first sentence probably refers to _.Athere will be mo

39、oline engine doesnt work until it reaches about 24 km/h.CThis kind of car is completely controlled by an onboard computer.DA specially designed battery motor provides extra power when needed.42What is the most important feature of hybrid cars?AThey are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gaso
40、line.BThey are much quieter than traditional cars.CThey only use 99 percent of their power to run up hills.DThey have smaller engines than traditional gasoline ones.DAs civilization proceeds in the direction of technology, it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials of lifefood, shelte
41、r, clothes and warmth. Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In o
42、ther words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours.I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid
43、 employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved comple
44、tely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds.By far the most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the require
45、ments of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations, when switched by the housewife.43As civilization develops in the direction of technology,_.Athe basic essentials of life must be suppliedBit is important to supply the basic essentials of lifeCit
46、is no longer so important as it was in the past to supply all the basic essentials of lifeDit is not necessary to supply the basic essentials of life44According to the author, we are faced with_.Athe choice of providing and fulfilling our needsBthe choice of using technologyCthe choice of earning a
47、standard of livingDa choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs to reduce the number of working hours45What alternative will mankind have chosen in future?ATo leave our standard of living at this level and work shorter hours.BTo raise our standard of living.CTo fulfill needs which
48、have been regarded as unnecessary.DTo lower our standard of living and work shorter hours.46It can be inferred that robots will be invented _.Ato take the place of housewivesBto help manage a familyCto do the routine of housework instead of humanDto provide the daily necessities for manERichard Rodr
49、iguez from the United States is a great roller coaster fan. Recently he broke his 15th world record after he spent 104 days riding the worlds largest roller coaster.“It got more difficult to ride and ride because of the muscle tiredness,” Rodriguez, a teacher at the University of Chicago, said as he
50、 stepped down from the ride in a German park. He spent 10 hours a day on the roller coaster.Rodriguez tried to keep himself busy during the rides on the big roller coaster in a southwestern town in Germany. “I read the newspapersI have a walkman, I have my cellphone, so I try to talk to people and m
51、essage people during the day,” he said.Although the 42yearold said he felt sick on the first few days, he said he soon got over the problem.“My face hurts sharply and I have a little backache, but I am good.”The “Expedition GeForce” is one of the worlds biggest roller coasters. It measures 62 meters
52、 at its highest point.On his 95th day on the coaster, after travelling over 25,000 kilometers, Rodriguez had a toothache and was treated by a local dentist. He went on after that and succeeded in breaking the record.Rodriguez celebrated with members of the park staff and his supporters, who had sent
53、 him postcards and emails encouraging him not to give up.47What do we know about Expedition GeForce?AIt once ran for 104 days nonstop.BIt is the one most difficult to ride.CIt is most modernly equipped.DIt is in a German town.48Rodriguez kept on riding that long because _.Ahe wanted to show the worl

64、对父母的爱,作者了解了老师的意图后,也对儿子表达了对他的爱,这样做让作者感觉很好。11B此处考查原词复现,由第二段的“ tell our parents we love them ”可知孩子应该是说“我爱你!”12C由后文作者与儿子的对话及第三段作者致电给老师“about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted”可知作者一时不知道(know)说什么好。13C由常识可知,孩子比大人矮且与前面的look up相对,因此作者应该是俯视着(look down)儿子。14A“我”的第一个想法(thought)是15A此处应该表肯定的推
65、测,故选A项。16D衔接前文,此处作者应该是问儿子都是一些关于(about)什么的作业。17D此处是指看(see)父母的反应。18C作者打电话给老师是为了弄清楚(find out)儿子所说的话及其他父母的反应。19Athe same as为固定搭配。句意:大部分父亲作出了和你一样的反应。20Dwe try this用了虚拟语气,只有D项有此用法。21D此处宾语从句中少宾语,故选D项。22A由thought可知后需接过去式,再由句意可知此处应该是表示“父母会(would)说什么”,构成过去将来时,而不是指能力,故不选C项。23A老师应该是对此事作出解释,故选A项。24C由最后一段最后一句中的“o

67、ed by crops.The data were transformed into a colourcoded map showing where plants were running fevers”可知,植物在发“高烧”,也就是说,植物在“身体状况”不佳时才会散发热。32D推理判断题。由第二段末尾“showing where plants were running feversFarmers could then spotspray,”可知,用红外线扫描的目的是确定有问题的区域,以使农民有针对性地喷洒杀虫剂。33A细节理解题。由第二段最后一句“Farmers could then spo
68、tspray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would(采取点喷,农民们可以节省平时用量的50%至70%的杀虫剂)”可知。34C细节理解题。由第三段的第一句“The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984,after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and longterm backers were hard to find.”可知,红外线扫描技术应用于农业遇到了一些问题
69、,原因有两个:一是农民对新技术的抵制;二是难以找到长期的赞助商。还有一处明显的提示出现在文章的最后一句“But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago”,从该句提供的信息同样可以反推出10年前的情形。B35B细节理解题。由第三段“Japan is the only world country to have been attacked by a nuclear weapon. Therefore, the citizens are highly sensitive to w
70、here nuclearpowered weapons are based.”及第四段可知B项正确。36B细节理解题。由第二段的内容可知。37C推理判断题。由第一段及第三段第一句话“It will be the first time that a nuclearpowered carrier is based in Japan.”可知。38D词义猜测题。根据上下文提供的语境可推测,unveil意为“揭开面纱,使得显露出来”。C39B主旨大意题。通读全文可知,作者想要介绍一种新型环保的汽车。40D句意理解题。通过阅读第一段可以知道,中国现在对环境问题非常重视,通过生产环保型汽车改善环境。故选D。
71、41C推理判断题。由第二、三、四段可得出答案。42A细节理解题。通读全文,尤其是第二段的第一句“Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power.”可知。D43C细节理解题。由第一段的第一句“it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials”可知选C。44D细节理解题。由文章第一段第二句可知。45A推理判断题。从第一段最后一句和第二段第一句判断,人类所选择的是使我们的生活水准停留在这种水平上并且使工时缩短。46C推理判断题。通过最后一段及全
72、文可推知。E47D细节理解题。由第二段中的“in a German park”可知,这部过山车在德国。第三段中也提到“a southwestern town in Germany”。48A推理判断题。从倒数第二段以及前面提到的信息可以得出答案。49C细节理解题。由第三段“I read the newspapersI have my cellphone, so I trymessage people during the day”可知答案。50C推理判断题。从第二段中引述他的话来看,他是十分疲劳的;而打破了世界纪录,自然也是非常高兴的。第三部分第一节51that are well worth v
