1、第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节阅读理解（共15小题，满分30分）A I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down, I immediately recognized that something was wrong, and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water, and i
2、t was a life-and-death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water, and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.T
3、here was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mothers body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk (象鼻)against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort, she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to pla
4、ce it on a narrow shelf of rock.Just at this moment, she fell back into the river. If she were carried down, it would be certain death. I knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot (地点)where she could get up the bank, but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.While I was wo
5、ndering what I could do next, I heard the sound of a mothers love.

8、. A Brave Act C. Aks5uDeadly River D. A Matter of Life and DeathB I know what youre thinking: pizza(比萨饼)? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last nights leftovers in the a.m. if you want to. I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早餐), and they have a ton of different excuses for d
9、oing it. Some say they dont have time, others think theyre “saying” calories (卡路里), still others just dont like breakfast food. But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when youre trying to lose weight .“Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better t
10、han nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R.D. , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this years “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if its loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece. Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss suc
11、cess stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.So eat something in the morning, anyth
12、ing. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last nights leftovers it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow.” I put away the leftovers instead o

The text is written mainly for those _.A. who go to work early B. who want to lose weightC. who stay up late D. who eat before sleepC Domestic(驯养的)horses now pull ploughs, race in the Kentucky Derby, an
16、d carry police. But early horses werent tame(驯服的)enough to perform these kinds of tasks. Scientists think the first interactions humans had with horses were far different from those today.Thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses that lived around them for food. Over time, people began t
17、o catch the animals and raise them. This was the first step in domestication.As people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristics. For example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a gentle personality so they could be ridden mor
18、e easily. People who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep stronger animals. Characteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals genes. So as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their young. Each new generation of houses would
19、show more of these chosen characteristics.Modern-day horse breeds come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This variety didnt exist in the horse population before domestication. The Shetland horse is one of the smallest breeds typically reaching only one meter tall. With short, strong legs, the a
20、nimals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts（矿井）with low ceilings. Huge horses like the Clydesdale came on the scene around 1700. People bred these heavy, tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heavy loads.The domestication of horses has had great effects on societies. For example,
21、 horse were important tools in the advancement of modern agriculture. Using them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficiently. Before they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross land on foot. Riding horses allowed people to travel far greater distance in much
22、less time. That encouraged populations living in different areas to interact with one another. The new from of rapid transportation helped cultures spread around the world.9. The author uses the Shetland horse as an example to show.A. it is smaller than the Clydesdale horseB. horse used to have gent
23、le personalitiesC. some horses have better shaped than othersD. horses were of less variety before domestication10. Horses contributed to the spread of culture by.A. carrying heavy loadsB. changing farming methodsC. serving as a means of transportD. advancing agriculture in different areas11.The pas
24、sage is mainly about_.A. why humans domesticated horsesB. how humans and horses needed each otherC. why horses came in different shapes and sizesD. how human societies and horses influenced each otherD Did you know that womens brains are smaller than mens? The average womens brain weighs 10% less th
25、an mens. since research has shown that the bigger the brain ,the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent than women. Right? Wrong. Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite the difference in brain size. Why? After years of study, researchers have concluded that it
26、s whats inside that matters, not just the size of the brain. The brain consists of“grey matter” and“white matter”.While men have more of the latter ,the amount of “thinking” brain is almost exactly the same in both sexes.It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps becaus
27、e the two sides of the brain are better connected in women. This means that little girls tend to learn to speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of information from different sources at the same time. When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on
28、 the baby all at the same time, its women who come out on top every time. There are other important differences between two sexes. As white matter is the key to spatial(空间的) tasks, men know better where things are in relation to other things. “A great footballer always knows where he is in relation
29、to the other players, and he knows where to go,” says one researcher. That may explain one of lifes great mysteries: Why men refuse to ask for directions and women often need to! The differences begin when fetuses(胎儿) are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children as young as
30、one. A boy would try to climb a barrier before him or push it down while a girl would attract help from others. These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills. It may all go back to our ancestors ,among whom w
31、omen needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, according to one research. If all this disappoints you, it shouldnt. “The brain changes throughout our lives according to what we do with it,” says a biologist.12. Which of the following is true according t
32、o the first paragraph? A. Womens brain is 10% less than mens. B. Grey matter plays the same role as white matter. C. Grey matter controls thinking in the brain. D. Both sexes have the same amount of white matter.13. What can we infer from the second and third paragraphs? A. Women prefer doing many t
33、hings at a time. B. Men do better dealing with one job at a time. C. Women do not need to tell directions. D. Men have weaker spatial abilities.14. Which of the following do you agree with according to the fourth paragraph? A. Young boys may be stronger than young girls. B. More women take up jobs r
34、equiring speech skills. C. Women may have stronger feelings than men. D. Our ancestors needed more spatial skills.15. What is the writers attitude in writing this passage?A. Defensive. B. Persuasive. C. Supportive. D. Objective.第二节 七选五（共5小题，满分10分）Kids in the KitchenSome experts serve up some of the

Dr. Colker advises parents to be watchful, even when their kids are involved in relatively safe tasks. The bottom line
