16、ens(雨水花园) are healthy for the environment and the people living and working nearby.A rain garden is not very different from a traditional garden. It is just a far more ecofriendly garden. Usually it is built lower than the ground. Rain gardens make smart use of rain and storm water by temporarily ho
17、lding water from rain and storms and letting it soak(浸入)slowly into the ground before it runs into streams or enters the public drinking water supply.Thus, a rain garden keeps the water, allowing it to be used as needed by plants in the rain garden, rather than flowing immediately into nearby stream
18、s and going unused. The water will soak slowly into the ground within a day or two. This creates an advantage that the rain garden does not allow mosquitoes to breed. This is a simple, attractive, and ecofriendly “green” way to treat storm water.Whats more, planting a rain garden helps reduce pollut
19、ion and improve the environment. Without using expensive machinery and chemicals, rain gardens remove harmful chemicals in the rainwater and cut down on the amount of pollution reaching streams and rivers by up to 30%.Native plants are recommended for rain gardens because they are more used to the l
20、ocal climate, soil, and water conditions. They may attract local wildlife such as native birds. Water your rain garden immediately after planting and once a week, unless you have had at least an inch of rain during the week. Once native plants establish the necessary root system, they will require l
21、ittle care.Often, local governments and private businesses develop large rain gardens in their yards and in public parks as a way to improve the environment and solve flooding problems. However, you dont need to be a professionally environmental engineer to create a rain garden. As long as youre eco
22、conscious homeowners, you can help the environment by building smaller rain gardens in your yards.31. Which of the following is NOT true for the function of rain gardens?AThey are good for living conditions.BThey increase pollution.CThey can beautify the community.DThey improve the environment.32. W
23、hich of the following is the ecofriendly function of rain gardens discussed in Paragraph 4?AThey can keep the rain and storm waterBThey can help reduce the pollutionproblem.CThey can be healthy for the people around.DThey can make the environment more beautiful.33. One of the main reasons why native
24、 plants are recommended is that_Athey cost less and are much easier to getBthey may attract local wildlife to comeCthey require little care from the local gardenerDthey are more used to the local growing conditions34. What do we know about rain gardens?AThey need little water after all the plants ar
25、e planted.BThey usually need at least an inch of rainwater a week.CThey may attract local birds and change the local climate.DThey may reduce the water pollution problem by 70%.BAn “apple polisher” is one who gives gifts to win friendship or special treatment. It is not exactly a bribe(贿赂), but is c
26、lose to it.All sorts of people are “apple polishers”， including politicians and people in high officesjust about everybody. Oliver Cromwell, the great English leader, offered many gifts to win the support of George Fox and his party, but failed.There are other phrases meaning the same thing as “appl
27、epolishing”“softsoaping” or “butteringup”. A gift is just one way to “softsoap” somebody, or to “butter him up”. Another that is just as effective is flattery, giving someone high praisetelling him how good he looks, or how well he speaks, or how talented and wise he is.Endless are the ways of flatt
28、ery. Who does not love to hear it? Only an unusual man can resist the thrill of being told how wonderful he is. In truth, flattery is good medicine for most of us, who get so little of it.We need it to be more sure of ourselves. It cannot hurt unless we get carried away by it. But if we just lap it
29、up for its good value and nourishment, as a cat laps up milk, then we can still remain true to ourselves.Sometimes, however, flattery will get you nothing from one who has had too much of it. A good example is the famous 12th century legend of King Canute of Denmark and England. The king got tired o
30、f listening to endless sickening flattery of his courtiers(朝臣). They overpraised him to the skies, as a man of limitless power.He decided to teach them a lesson. He took them to the seashore and sat down. Then he ordered the waves to stop coming in. The tide was too busy to listen to him. The king w
31、as satisfied. This might show his followers how weak his power was and how empty their flattery was.35. Which of the following activities has nothing to do with “applepolishing”？AA boy tells his girlfriend how pretty she looks.BAn employee tells her boss how good he is at management.CA knight is sai
32、d to be of limitless power by his followers.DA teacher praises her students for their talent and wisdom.36 What does the writer want to prove with Cromwells example?AEverybody can be an “applepolisher”BCromwell was not a good “applepolisher”CGeorge Fox and his party were not “applepolishers”DThere a
33、re people who dont like being “applepolished”37. Which of the following statements about flattery is TRUE according to the author?AToo much flattery can carry us away.BFlattery is too empty to do people any good.CFlattery can get you nothing but excessive(过度的) pride.DFlattery is one of the ways to a
34、pplepolish people.38. Why did King Canute of Denmark and England take his followers to the seashore?ABecause he was sick of his normal life.BBecause he disliked being overpraised any more.CBecause he wanted them to realize how wise he was.DBecause he wanted them to see how weak he was as a king.ZXXC
35、Big Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power of friendship. It is a programme which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable_ young_people (ages 717)with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend. Volunteer tutors come from all walks of lifemar
36、ried, single，with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers.They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed. A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four
37、times each month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park，cooking，playing sport or going to a football match.These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop positive selfrespect，confidence and life direction. Big Brothers Big Siste
38、rs organizations exist throughout the world. It is the largest and most wellknown provider of tutor services internationally and has been operating for 25 years. Emily and Sarah have been matched since March 2008. Emily is a 10yearold girl who has experienced some difficulties being accepted by her
39、schoolmates at school. “I was pretty sure there was something wrong with me.” Emilys mum came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be of benefit to Emily by “providing different feedback (反馈) about herself other than just relying on schoolmates to measure her selfworth” Sarah wanted
40、to get involved in a volunteer programme. “I googled it and found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes its all work and no play.” Big Brothers Big Sisters has been of great benefit and enjoyment to both Emily an
41、d Sarah. They love and look forward to their time together and the partnership has certainly helped Emily be more comfortable in being the wonderful, happy and unique girl she is!39. What is the aim of Big Brothers Big Sisters?ATo offer students public services. BTo help students improve their grade
42、s.CTo organize sport activities for young people.DTo provide partnership and fun for young people. 40. A volunteer is usually expected to work within a year for at least _A24 hours B36 hours C48 hours D72 hours41. According to Emilys mother, this programme may provide Emily with _ Aadvice from her t
43、eachers Ba new way to assess herselfCa new way to judge her schoolmates Dmore comments from her schoolmates42. According to the passage, “vulnerable young people” are probably those who are _Apopular at school Brather weak physicallyCeasily hurt emotionally Dconfident in themselvesDAnimals can move
44、from place to place, but plants cannot. When an animal is under attack, it can run away or fight back. Plants certainly cannot run away, and they lack teeth and claws. But plants can defend themselves by using both physical and chemical means.Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away. For
45、 example, the leaves of the holly plant have sharp spines (刺) that discourage grass eating animals. Holly leaves on lower branches have more spines than leaves on upper branches. This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach.Some plants, such as the oak tree, have thick and h
46、ard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat. Some grasses may contain a sandy material; eating such grasses wears down the animals teeth.Many plants also have chemical defenses. Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction. Some plants may fight against an att
47、ack by increasing the production of these chemicals. When a caterpillar (毛虫) bites a tobacco leaf, the leaf produces a chemical messenger. This messenger sends to the roots the information to produce more nicotine. The higher levels of nicotine discourage the caterpillar.Many plants depend on both p
48、hysical and chemical defenses. A certain plant in China, for instance, has prickly (多刺的) leaves, and each prickle contains poisonous venom (毒液). A single experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.43The holly plant has more spines on the lower leaves b
49、ecause most animals_Aare not tall enough Blike the lower leaves onlyCare not clever enough Dcan get the lower leaves easily44To defend themselves, oak trees use_Achemical means Bphysical meansCbitter chemicals Dsandy materials45How does tobacco protect itself against an attack from a caterpillar?AIt
50、s leaves fight against the attack by physical means.BIts roots send a messenger to discourage the caterpillar.CIts roots increase the production of nicotine when it is attacked.DIts leaves produce poisonous sand to drive the caterpillar away.46What would be the best title for this passage?APlants an
51、d animalsBHow plants defend themselvesCAttacks and defensesDHow animals eat plant leavesEIn todays throwaway society，dealing with the citys growing mountain of waste is an increasing challenge for the city council(市议会)Recently, Edinburgh is faced with the problem of disposing of(处理)about 250,000 mil
52、lion tons of waste a year. Despite different ways to dispose of much of it in a green mannerlargely through encouraging recyclingits aging facilities such as the Powderhall landfill do not have the ability to deal with it.The European Union(EU) has issued a new policy，regulating how such mountains o
53、f waste are to be disposed of. The five councils (Edinburgh，East Lothian, West Lothian，Midlothian and Borders) face fines around 18 million a year from 2013 if they dont increase recycling levels and rely less on landfill. With this in mind，the councils got together with the idea of building a large
54、 incinerator plant (垃圾焚烧厂)to burn half of the waste produced in their districts. But this plan fell apart after the change of target levels by a new UK government waste policy which required that no more than 25% of the citys waste should be disposed of in this way by 2025.After the plan was abandon
55、ed，a private company which already transported millions of tons of the citys waste by train to a landfill site near Dunbar，offered an alternative solution when it suggested opening a huge waste site near Portobello.Since Powderhall is supposed to close in 2015，it seemed necessary for the members of
56、the Edinburgh Council to accept the suggestion. But soon they turned it downafter 700 local objections reached thembecause it would have meant hundreds of lorries a day making loud noise through heavily populated areas.That still leaves the council with a problem. By 2013，only 50% of 1995 levels of
57、waste will be allowed to be sent to landfill. Even if recycling targets are met，there will still be a large amount of rubbish to be burnt up. Due to this，Edinburgh and Midlothian councils have now decided to work together to build an incinerator plant as time to find a solution is fast running out.4
58、7The main way of handling waste in a green manner in Edinburgh is _.Arecycling Brestoring Cburying Dburning48The five councils worked out a plan to build an incinerator plant to _.Areduce the cost of burying waste Bmeet the EU requirements Cspeed up waste recyclingDreplace landfill sites49The city c
59、ouncil of Edinburgh rejected the suggestion to open a huge landfill site near Portobello because _.Ait came from a private company Bthe council was not interested in it Cit was not supported by EUDthe local people were against it来50What is the final decision of Edinburgh and Midlothian councils? ATo
60、 open a new landfill nearby.BTo close the Powderhall landfill in 2015.CTo set up a plant for burning waste.DTo persuade people to reduce their waste.第二节 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项多余选项。（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） Sit down, please, take it easy.
