This started when I was three years old and father took me to the beach. The huge waves knocked me down and swept
17、 over me.The pool was quiet. I was afraid of going in all alone, so I sat on the side of the pool to wait for others. Then came a big boy. He yelled, Hi, Skinny! Howd you like to be ducked? With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end. I landed in a sitting position, and swallowed water.
18、 But I was not frightened out of my wits（机智）-when my feet hit the bottom, I would make a big jump, come out of the surface. It seemed a long way down. I gathered all my strength when I landed and made what I thought was a great spring upwards. Then I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water. I tried
19、 to yell but no sound came out. I went down, down, endlessly.When came to consciousness（意识）, I found myself lying on the bed in the hospital.I never went back to the pool. I avoided water whenever I could. This misadventure stayed with me as the years rolled by. It prevented me from the joy of boati

Sometimes the terror（恐怖）would return.This went on until July. I swam across the Lake Wentworth. Only once did the terror return. When I wa

Goodbye, Mr. TerrorCThe planting or woodlands in upland areas could play a key role in preventing the flooding which has increasingly affected communities across the world in recent years.A new study by th
25、e University of Plymouth has shown that within just 15 years of being planted, native broadleaf trees can have a great effect on soils response during extreme weather events. It means that the huge amount of rainwater can be more readily absorbed, rather than simply running over the surface and into
26、 rivers where it probably causes severe flooding.Scientists say their findings show planting more native woodlands in upland areas could be an effective and natural flood management tool. There have been a number of extreme rainfall and flooding events in recent years, and they are predicted to incr
27、ease in both frequency and seriousness in the future as a result of human-caused climate change.They show that in areas where new woodlands have been planted, the ability of soil to absorb water is almost double that of areas with no trees, associated with increases in soil macro-pores-（大孔隙）and redu
28、ctions in soil compaction（压实）. This means the speed at which rainwater enters rivers during rainfall events is obviously reduced, which helps lower peak flow.However, the nature of the soil and location of the woodlands are also critical to their success, with steep hillside on the edge of upland ar
29、eas providing the most effective location for tree plantations to serve as an effective flood prevention tool.Dr Paul Lunt, Associate Professor in Environmental Science added, There are a lot of weak upland catchment（集水）areas across the UK. However, by working with farmers and the governments farm w
30、oodland measures, this study has shown that damaged soil can recover rapidly. This is particularly obvious on hillsides which are traditionally not so good for farming. So there is an opportunity for a joined-up approach which could benefit the uplands themselves, but also those people living on and
31、 around them.28. What advantage does planting native woodlands in upland areas have?A. Preventing rainwater into the sky.B. Taking in plenty of rainwater.C. Stopping the extreme weather.D. Helping rainwater run over the surface.29. What can we infer from paragraph 3?A. Trees can help reduce soil mac

34、ny Trees to Collect RainwaterDMarcus Eriksen was studying Plastic pollution when he met camel expert Ulrich Wernery. They went deep into the desert and spotted a camel skeleton（骨架）. Eriksen was not prepared for what he saw in the desert. I was just appalled, he said, because inside the dead body of
35、a camel was a mass of plastic bags, which was as big as a medium-sized suitcase.Wernery is a scientist working in a research lab in Dubai. Since 2008 Wernerys team has examined 30,000 dead camels. They found 300 of those dead camels had a mass of plastic bags in their bodies. As camels wander in the
36、 desert, they eat plastic bags and other rubbish that move into trees and pile up along roadsides. To a camel, if its not sand, its food, explains Eriksen.Tightly packed masses of indigestible（难消化的）things can be built up in the digestive system of people or animals. Scientists call them bezoars（胃石）.
37、 Normally, these are made of vegetable fibers or hair. Werner and Eriksen call those found in the camels polybezoars. It points to their origin: plastic polymers.In a new study, Eriksen and Wernery report data suggesting that each year these polybezoars are killing off around 1 in every 100 camels.
38、Of five camel bezoars analyzed for this study, the plastic content ranged from 3 to 64 kilograms. If it is confirmed that 1 percent of camels died due to plastic by future and more detailed studies, then plastic pollution will certainly be important concern for camels, says Luca Nizzetto, an environ
39、mental scientist. Such studies are important, because they raise social awareness about this pollution.Banning plastic bags and single-use plastics is crucial for protecting camels and other wildlife, Eriksen says. Plastic bags blow out of garbage cans, out of landfills, out of trucks and out of peo
40、ples hands. Whats more, he adds, They travel for hundreds of miles.32. What does the underlined word appalled in paragraph I mean?A. Addicted.B. Delighted.C. Satisfied. D. Shocked.33. What do Eriksens words in paragraph 2 suggest?A. People have cleaned rubbish in the desert.B. Camels often mistake p
41、lastics as food.C. Camels are always walking along the road.D. There are 30,000 camels living in the world.34. What can we learn about the polybezoar from paragraph 3?A. It is related with plastic.B. It helps camels digest food.C. It consists of vegetable fibers.D. It can also be found in humans bod

Careless.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Time and money are lifes most valuable resources. One of the great laws of economics is tha
43、t time equals money. The phrase time is money is usually credited to Benjamin Franklin, who used it in an essay（Advice to a Young Tradesman, 1748）. 36 He encouraged people to treat time like money.
