24、cold January morning in nineteen eighty-eight, library workers found a small, almost frozen kitten(小猫)in the book drop. A book drop is the small metal door in the wall of thebuilding where people can return books when the library is closed. No one knows who put the kitten there or why. But it turned

34、 or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change peoples memories and changing memories is very
35、 dangerous because memories give us our identity.

You may probably read the passage in A. a guidebook B. a textbook C. a medical magazine D. a science fictionDAsk someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important o
40、f course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.The total amount o
41、f packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005.It now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is runnin
42、g out of it for burying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, to
43、o. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need.

44、ciate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food.

45、 beginning to realize just how much unnecessary materials are collected. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb. 71.

47、cycling .A. helps control the greenhouse effect B. means burning packaging for energyC. is the solution to gas shortage D. leads to a waste of land 74. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.C. It is improper to judge
48、 quality by packaging.D. Other products are better packaged than food.75. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult. B.

49、共两节，满分35分) 第一节 任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。In a society, such as the United States or Canada, which has many national, religious and cultural differences, people highly value individualism-the difference among people. Teachers place a lot of importance on the
50、qualities that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students dont memorize information. Instead, they work individually and find answers themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their own ideas
51、 and opinions.In most Asian societies, by contrast, people have the same language, history, and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the educational system in much of Asia reflects societys belief in group goals and purposes rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan, and Korea often work toge
52、ther and help one another in assignments. In the classroom, the teaching methods are often very formal. The teacher lectures, and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students recite rules of information that they have memorized.There are advantages and disadvantages to bo
53、th of these systems of education. For example, one advantage to the system in Japan is that there is much more math and science than American students learn by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North Americans do. The system is difficult, but it
54、 prepares students for a society that values discipline and self-control. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information that they have memorized.The advantage of the e
55、ducational system in North American, on the other hand, is that students learn to think for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values creative ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from high school, they havent memorized as many basic rules and facts a
