9、n is always moving：waves break on the surface，sea levels rise and fall with the tides，and currents flow below the surfaceAlthough it looks as if the water in a wave is moving across the surface of the ocean，it is notThe water is actually moving up and downThis is why an object on top of a wave will
10、bob up and down，but not move forwardWhen a wave reaches the shore，however, the water does move forwardIt surges(前进)onto the shoreThis is because the “bottom” of the wave drags on the sand and the “top” continues on，crashing onto the shoreThis crashing water is called the surfMost waves are caused by
11、 wind blowing across the oceans surfaceThe size of a wave depends on how fast and how far the wind blows over the surface and on the depth of the waveSmall winds can cause ripples，while strong winds create large hurricane wavesAlong most shorelineswater levels rise and fall twice a dayThese changes，
12、called tidesare caused by the gravitational pull of the Sun and the MoonThe ocean surface lifts，or bulges(凸出)，in two places：on the side of Earth that faces the Moon and on the side of Earth that faces away from the MoonBoth bulges cause a high tide on nearby shorelinesAt the same time that the high
13、tides occur，low tides occur between the two bulgesTides are also affected by the pull of the Sun，although the effect of the Sun is not as great as the effect of the MoonWhen the Moon and Sun are lined up with Earth，the combined pull is the strongest，causing the highest high tides and the lowest low
14、tidesThese very high and very low tides are called spring tidesWeaker tides，called neap tides，happen when the Moon and the Sun are at right angles to EarthHigh tides alternate with low tidesAlong most shorelines，a high tide or low tide occurs about every six hours21The word “alternate” in the last p
15、aragraph means _ Aappear suddenly Bbob up and down Cchange or become quickly Dhappen or follow one after another22. The water in the ocean is actually moving _.A. left and right B. forward and backward C. here and there D. up and down23. Most waves are caused by _. A. the sun B. the air C. the wind
16、blows D. fish in the ocean24The best title for the passage is _ AThe Moving Ocean CTides and Waves BOcean and Earth DWaves and CurrentsBIn a Station of the MetroThe apparition of these faces in the crowd;Petals on a wet, black bough.This is the only Ezra Pound poem that many people will read in thei
17、r lives. Why? One obvious reason is that its just two lines long. The poem, which can be understood as “A man sees a bunch of faces in the subway and thinks they look like flowers on a tree branch,” is an exercise in shortness. Pound wrote it after having a spiritual experience in a Paris metro (sub
18、way) station. In 1916, the US poet originally thought he could best describe his vision in a painting. Unfortunately, he wasnt a painter. So he wrote a thirty-line poem, which he didnt like. He dropped the long version in the waste bin. Six months later, he wrote a shorter poem, but didnt like that
19、one either. Finally, a full year after the experience, he had been reading short Japanese poems called haikus, and he figured he would try this style. The result, which was published in 1913, is one of the most famous and influential works in modern poetry.This poem is one of the monuments (纪念物) of
20、the 20th-century artistic movement known as “Imagism”. Basically, Pound and his friends thought that images (意象) werent just decoration: they were the highest form of speech. By finding the right image, the poet can express the true, spiritual reality of a thing, which is more important than using a
21、 bunch of adjectives to describe its physical appearance. Thus, “In a Station of the Metro” is a poem that consists of one image expressed with absolute (绝对的) exactness and nothing else. To the imagists, the best way to describe an experience is not to use more and more words; the best way is to fin
22、d exactly the right words. Have you ever told a beloved one that “words cant express” how much you love them? Well, Pound would say that youre just being lazy. In his view, words can express anything, even if it takes an entire year to find the right ones. 25. In the short poem, Ezra Pound _. A. tel
23、ls us one of his painful experiencesB. compares the passengers faces to flowersC. describes a man walking among the crowdD. shows a wet, black tree branch in a metro station 26. According to the text, “In a Station of the Metro” was _. A. based on one of Pounds paintings B. first discovered in a was
24、te bin C. influenced by haikus D. completed in 1916 27. Pound and his friends _. A. stressed the importance of using adjectives B. were good at describing abstract images C. decorated their poems with pictures D. used images to express their ideas CSome 30,000 years ago, artists who lived in caves i
25、n Europe painted pictures of the animals around them: panthers, hyenas, rhinos, cave lions, mammoths and other creatures which have been extinct for a long time. The paintings were highly realistic. Some even showed movement. The artwork, more than a thousand drawings, is considered the oldest group
26、 of human cave drawings which have ever been discovered. They were preserved because the cave was sealed-closed off-for more or less 23,000 years. Fast forward to December 18, 1994, a group of French cave scientists were exploring caves in southern France. Jean Marie Chauvet, who led the group then,
27、 describes the process of discovering the cave paintings. “At that time I was in the front, Eliette just walked behind me, Christian behind. Eliette said she saw two marks with red ochre and she said, They came here. And at this very moment everything began. The drawings and everything linked to the
28、 parietal art(壁画). That is where it is started.”Cave art expert Jean Clotttes reviewed the paintings. “I was amazed at the number of paintings there were and paintings of their quality and particularly in front of the panel of the horses.”Scientific analysis confirmed the prehistoric date of the art
29、work. Studies showed the drawings were created tens of thousands of years ago, before human history was written. The United Nations cultural agency UNESCO lists the cave as a World Heritage Site. They say that the drawings form a remarkable expression of early human artistic creation of grand excell
30、ence and variety. The Chauvet Cave has been named after the explorer who first entered it. However, its environment and drawings are too fragile to be visited by human beings. So the cave is closed, and only people there for scientific purposes can go inside and see the artwork.However, French autho
31、rities asked experts to create an exact copy of the cave, called Pont dArc Cavern. The copy, which we also called replica, cost more than 59 million dollars to build. It opened at the end of April in France. Pascal Terrasse is the president of the cavern. He says everyone will be able to experience
32、the thrill of looking at drawings made by the first humans in Europe. He says the place is magic because it is done so well. Authorities say they think as many as 400,000 people will be allowed to visit Pont dArc Cavern every year. 28. What did the artists who lived in caves in Europe paint? A. Flow
33、ers B. Trees C. Animals D. People29. According to Jean Clottes words in Paragraph 4, the paintings in the cave were _.A. abstractB. superiorC. creativeD. inspiring30. Which of the follow statements is TRUE about the Chauvet Cave?A. It was closed off for more than 30,000 years.B. It is thought to be
34、the origin of modern parietal art. C. The environment and artwork there are very easy to damage. D. The majority of drawings there are about the extinct animals. 31. The purpose of creating Pont dArc Cavern is to _.A. show admiration for the earliest artists in EuropeB. arouse visitors awareness of

36、bout students, so I have many chances to talk with her after class. I have always wanted to become a journalist(新闻记者). Since Ms Runkle used to be a journalist back in the United States, she has introduced many helpful journalistic writing skills to me. Although she is my teacher, Ms Runkle and I are
37、 more like friends. She often invites my classmates and me to take part in different activities outside of school. For example, I went to listen to a journalists speech, which helped me better understand current events(时事). Not only does Ms Runkle talk with me outside of school, she is also a great
38、teacher in the classroom. English Language and Composition is a really hard subject for a second language learner. We felt worried in the beginning, but Ms Runkle really makes an effort to help us out. In class, Ms Runkle always encourages students to question everything to keep us active. One part
39、of class I love the most is when groups of students are required to give speeches on events that are happening in the world. It requires a lot of deep thinking and I really learn quite a lot from it. I love Ms Runkle very much. She not only helps me to get good scores, but also acts as a good friend
