13、u.c.o*mEven though he was successful, Thomas remained troubled by his childhood. “He still wont let anyone see his feet, which are out of shape because he never had proper fitting shoes, Wendy said in 1993. Born to a single mother, he was adopted(收养) as a baby by Rex and Auleva Thomas of Kalamazoo i
14、n Michigan. After Auleva died when he was 5, Thomas spent years on the road as Rex traveled around seeking construction work. “He fed me, Thomas said, “and if I got out of line, hed beat me.Moving out on his own at 15, Thomas worked, first as a waiter, in many restaurants. But he had something much
15、better in mind. “I thought if I owned a restaurant, he said, “I could eat for free. A 1956 meeting with Harland Sanders led Thomas to a career as the manager of a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant that made him a millionaire in 1968.In 1969, after breaking with Sanders, Thomas started the first Wend

With 6,000 restaurants worldwide, the chain now makes $ 6 billion a year in sales.Although troubled by his own experience with adoption, Thomas, married since 1954 to Lorraine, 66, and with four
17、grown kids besides Wendy, felt it could offer a future for other children. He started the Dave Thomas Foundation (基金会) for Adoption in 1992.

Shower with a friend.” Now, Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a
22、shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit (IC) card reader at each tap shows the
23、time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system which charged 1 yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used about 320 tons of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now. Many students use the new system but opinions
24、 on it are divided. Some students say it is uncomfortable, because bathing had become a sort of race. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and theyre still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse work
25、er to help them buy extra time.“Its a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The University is also considering some students suggestions that they be allowed to pay after theyve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are co
26、mplaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.Without the time limit, most students tended to shower for half to an hour in the bathhouse.Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 10-20 minutes is enough,”
27、said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.A similar system has been installed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record wit
28、h a two- minute shower.31. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. Students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower.B. The clock times all through while the student is bathing except when the bather pauses for soap.C. If money runs out, there will be no water. W$w
29、#w.k-s+5=u.c.o*mD. Having finished bathing, the student has to pay for it.32. The authors attitude toward the students move is _. A. critical B. serious C. appreciative D. not mentioned33. Since the new system has performed, _ of water can be saved. A. a quarter B. one third C. one half D. two third

A. the new operation can solve the water crisis B. the new operation can raise students environmental awareness C. a similar operation will be set in other universities D. Most students spend less than half an hour showing in the bathroom.35. In whic
31、h column can you find this passage? A. People. B. Society. C. Campus Life D. Lifestyle CThe hole in the Earths ozone layer (臭氧层) has until now protected Antarctica from the worst effects of global warming. But scientists have warned that as the hole closes up in the next few decades, temperatures on
32、 the continent could rise by around 3C on average, with melting ice contributing to a global sea level increase of up to 1.4 meters.In the past decades the western Antarctic has seen rapid ice loss as the world has warmed, but the other parts of the continent have, paradoxically, been cooling, resul
33、ting in a 10% increase in ice in the seas around the region. This is because the hole in the ozone layer has increased cold winds in Antarctica, making much of the continent surface colder than usual. But now that the gasses that cause the ozone hole have been banned, scientists expect the hole to r
34、epair itself within the next 50 to 60 years. By then the cooling effect will have faded out and the Antarctic will face the full impact of global warming. This means an increase in average air temperatures of around 3C and a reduction in sea ice by around a third. The biggest threat to the continent
35、 comes from warming seas. Robert Johnson, a scientist who monitors Antarctica ice sheets, said, The ice sheets in Antarctica are hundreds of metres thick. But once warm ocean waters start flowing underneath, the ice will begin thinning and could break up very quickly. Thinning ice sheets cause ice t
36、o break away from the continent and to melt even faster. Escaping ice from western Antarctica has already resulted in a 10% rise in global sea level in recent decades. Johnson believes that international action to reduce global warming is required immediately or it may be too late. Everything is con
37、nected Antarctica may be a long way away but it is an important part of the Earths system, said Johnson. It contains 90% of the worlds ice, 70% of the worlds fresh water and that is enough, if it melts completely, to raise sea levels by 63 meters. Even in a worse-case situation scientists dont expec
38、t the ice to entirely disappear, but predict that, because of the melting ice sheets, average sea level rise will be around 1.4 meters higher by the end of the century.36. The underlined word paradoxically (in Paragraph 2) most probably means _.A. rapidly B. approximately C. contradictorily D. appar
39、ently37. What is the effect of the hole in the ozone layer on Antarctica?A. It is causing the ice to melt faster.B. It is making much of the continent colder.C. It is making the effects of global warming in the region worse.D. It is reducing the amount of water in Antarctica.38. What do scientists t
40、hink is the biggest danger facing Antarctica?A. Rising sea levels. B. Warming sea water temperature.C. Water pollution. D. Growing ice sheets.39. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Antarctica is currently experiencing the full effects of global warming.B. The average temperat
41、ure has increased by3C in recent decades.C. Antarctica contains most of the worlds fresh water.D. Ten percent of Antarcticas ice has already been lost.40. The best title for the passage is _.A. Our planet in danger B. Antarctica melting awayC. Action plan to save Antarctica D. Lets save the ozone la
42、yer W$w#w.k-s+5=u.c.o*mDGiven Australias size and the fact that early settlements were far apart, Australian society is remarkably homogeneous (同种的). Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes
43、a sharp ear to identify regional accents.However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city dwellers and the country people. Almost 90 per cent of the population lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities p
44、reserve pockets of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modern, with new buildings reflecting the countrys youth. In contrast, the rural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have “ridden on the sheeps back”, a reference to wool being
45、the countrys main money earner. However, the wool industry is no longer dominant. Much of Australias relatively sound economy is now achieved from natural coal and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly im
46、portant. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a self-deprecating sense of humor. On the whole, Australia is a society without hierarchies (等级制度), an attitude generally held to stem from its prisoner beginnings.Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisone
47、r origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally coming almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australias liberal postwar immigration policies led to an influ
48、x of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans.The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a blend of nations and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful e
49、xperiment and the country is justifiably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world.41. What does the writer mean by saying “It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.” in the first paragraph? A. Australians speak Standard English with no local accents. B
50、. You have to practice a lot to learn to understand the different accents. C. The Australian regional accents are very difficult to understand indeed. D. There is not much difference between the accents in different areas of Australia.42. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the pa
51、ssage?A. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners.B. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports.C. The majority of people living in Australia come from Europe.D. The pace of life is different in the city and in the country.43. The underlined pronoun it in the final paragraph refe
52、rs to “_”.A. Community B. Racism C. Blend of Nations D. Southeast Asia44. We can infer from the passage that _.A. there are no signs of Australias colonial past in its modern citiesB. Australias recent immigration policy encourages immigrants from Southeast AsiaC. immigrants from Southeast Asia have
