25、riting to express my concern about the plans to build a motorway near our village. Haldersham is one of the loveliest villages in England. It is peaceful and quiet, and it is situated in a very attractive valley. There are also several beautiful countryside walks in the surroundings, with a view of
26、many rare trees and plants.Most of the people who live in Haldersham have moved here from other places, often from London and other big cities. They have bought houses here to live in a place far away from the noise and the stress of the big city. They paid a lot of money for their houses, but they
27、knew they would get a high quality of life for it.If the planned motorway is built, life in Haldersham will change greatly. There will be a lot of noise around us, and nobody will want to go on the walks. House prices will certainly go down, because nobody will want to buy houses in a place close to
28、 a motorway. Haldersham will become an ugly place.I dont think any of the people living in this beautiful village want that, and we all believe exposure to noise pollution can have a direct influence on our health. So, lets all tell the politicians who support the motorway plans what we think about
29、them!Yours faithfully,Hilary RileyHilary Riley56. Many people move to Haldersham because .A. it has a good environmentB. it is not far away from big citiesC. they want to be a help to the villageD. they prefer to study rare plants in this area57.

30、high house pricesB. bring people stressC. provide a convenient lifeD. affect the quality of life58. Whats the purpose of the letter?A. To give an introduction of Haldersham.B. To show grateful thanks to the politicians.C. To express disapproval about the motorway.D. To offer suggestions on building
31、the motorway.BWhat a Scientist Is LikeIf you were asked to imagine a scientist, what image (形象)would come to your mind? The common idea that most kids from kindergarten through college have of a scientist is a man wearing a white lab coat with messy hair, big glasses, and several glass cups of myste
32、rious colorful liquids giving off clouds of smoke. As for adults, the majority view scientists as strange people who spend 100 hours a week slaving away in a lonely laboratory. However, the reality is quite different.Recently Ive had a chance to take part in a scientific experience far from my labor
33、atory and into Costa Rica. It supports a huge amount of wildlife due to its geographical placement between North and South America. It is home to more than 500,000 species (物种),which represents nearly 4% of the total species worldwide!First we worked alongside conservationists to preserve wildlife a
34、t a leatherback turtle (棱皮 龟)rescue center. We helped the volunteers preserve turtle populations by removing rubbish from the shoreline to create a safe environment for turtle eggs to come out. After that we stayed at Mount Arenal where we studied seismic activity relating to earthquakes. During our
35、 stay at Arenal, we rode over the mountainous areas and took a long walk through the rainforest. After reaching the top, we went down and through waterfalls to the beautiful valley below! On the last day we got a hands-on introduction to rocket science where we learned about new rocket technology th
36、at will be used on the international space station.During my Costa Rica experience, I know that being a scientist doesnt mean working in a lab all day and night. A scientist is one who loves learning and getting a better understanding of the world from helping preserve wild-life, learning about eart
37、hquakes or inventing rockets. I think that schools should really stress that science is so much more than wearing a lab coat and mixing chemicals. Kids need to be aware of the excitement and adventures science can bring!59. According to the first paragraph, scientists are often believed .A. to work
38、as slavesB. to behave in a strange wayC. to spend too much time in labsD. to do experiments in messy labs60.

Science is related to mysterious liquids.D. Science is about wildlife and earthquakes.62. Why does the author write this p
40、assage?A. To encourage kids to study science.B. To tell the story of traveling in Costa Rica.C. To expect more people to travel in Costa Rica.D. To share the secrets behind science phenomena.CMost of us have gone away from “mad men” in the street, only to realize that they are in fact using a Blueto
41、oth headset. Now a new University of Pennsylvania study shows that muttering can actually help people find lost objectsin other words, saying the name of an object helps you find it more quickly.Previous work has suggested that speaking aloud while performing step-by-step tasks, like tying shoelaces
42、 (鞋带),can help kids guide their behavior and let them focus on the job in hand. However, scientists were not sure if speaking aloud when performing tasks could help adults in the same way, especially when looking for particular objects. Professor Gary Lupan and Daniel Swingley, writing for the Quart
43、erly Journal of Experimental Psychology, carried out some experiments. They hoped to give the fact that next time you lose your keys, muttering “ keys,keys,keys”can in fact help you find them.Inspired by viewing people muttering to themselves as they try to find things like peanut butter in a superm
44、arket, the researchers conducted two experiments to see if this actually worked. In the first, participants were shown 20 pictures of various objects and were asked to find a certain one, with some seeing a text label (标签)telling them what they were looking for. These participants were then asked to
45、 search for the object again while saying the word to themselves, with results showing that saying it aloud helped people find the object more quickly.The second experiment saw participants performing a shopping task, where they were shown photographs of items (物品)commonly found on supermarket shelv
46、es. They were asked to find all examples of a particular item, so if they were asked for apples they had to find all the bags of apples, as quickly as possible. The researchers found that there was also an advantage in saying the name of the product aloud when they were searching for something famil
47、iar.The University of Pennsylvania study shows that muttering can actually help people reach the target objectin other words, muttering to oneself helps to focus the mind on something. It works more effectively than seeing a written description. Repeating the word over and over again helpseven more.
48、63. The second paragraph tells us that .A. muttering helps people to control their behaviorB. muttering has the same effect on both kids and adultsC. it is really hard to carry out the experiments on adultsD. it is easier for kids to do step-by-step tasks by muttering64. According to the passage, mu
49、ttering can help people in a way that.A. it completely controls peoples mindB. it directly explains peoples behaviorC. they concentrate more on their job at handD. they reduce their pressure from their mind65. The two experiments mentioned in the passage show that .A. participants were better at doi
50、ng the shopping taskB. it took the participants the same time to find the objectsC. showing pictures of the items helped find them more quicklyD. participants saying aloud the word found the object more quickly66. What is the best title of the passage?A. Effects of MutteringB. How to Find Lost Objec
51、tsC. What to Mutter to YourselfD. Methods of Remembering ObjectsDWhy Ive taken a break from holidaysIt is now close to four years since I last took a holiday. This is because I have come to the conclusion, over the course of my adult life, that I am not very good at it. You might think this sounds l
52、ike saying youre not very good at drinking tea or listening to music. What could possibly be difficult about the natural act of putting your working life on hold for a couple of weeks and going somewhere warm to do nothing? I was a model holidaymaker as a kid. However, the problems started during my
53、 twenties. A trip to the south of France was ended after just two days, mainly because I had an urge to check my e-mails. Similarly, my honeymoon was cut short by 48 hoursnot because my wife and I werent enjoying ourselves, but because we were missing our cats. So what is my problem? On the surface,
54、 Im probably a bit of a homebody. And I just find the pressure of being on holiday too severe: it always feels like having a gun held to my head and being forced to have fun. Somehow, packing a list of possessions and meeting a scheduled flight has none of the excitement of suddenly deciding to take
55、 a day off and driving somewhere for the fun of it.Thankfully, Im not alone. This summer, most of my friends have decided not to have a break. And a recent survey (调查)proved the downside of holidays, with the results showing that nearly two thirds of people found that the calming effects of a holida
56、y wore off within 24 hours, as stress levels returned to normal. And this year The Idler magazine published its Book of Awful Holidays. Here you will find a list of the five most ecologically-damaging vacations its possible to take, along with 50 painful holiday experiences voted for on The Idler we
57、bsite.What interests me is what the concept of a “holiday” says about our lives. For me, the point of living is to have a life you enjoy for 52 weeks a year. The more I like my life and the better I structure it, the less I want to go away. Maybe Im an unusual person for not liking holidays, but I j
58、ust feel the time when Im not working is too valuable to waste on them.67. The events the author describes in the second paragraph show.A. how hard he has tried to enjoy holidaysB. how badly he behaves when he is on holidayC. his lack of enthusiasm for being on holidayD. his fear of something bad wh

He feels embarrassed when other people are having fun but he isnt.C. He tends to be made responsible for too much of the organization of them.D. They are less enjoyable t

The most important reason for this is that human progress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things, and when people have many materi
62、al possessions, they are bound to throw some of them away. 71 Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again, preventing the littering of the environment. Instead of throwing all your garbage into the dustbin, you should separate paper, metal, glass, and pl
63、astic into different containers. 72 They can be turned into valuable compost, which is the perfect plant food and soil disease fighter.73 You can see if an item has been made from recycled materials by its label. If its been recycled, it will say so. Also instead of always buying new clothes, you ca

65、c.

However, in some countries the
66、responsibility is left up to the ordinary people to recycle. 75 Recycling represents just one way in which we can help the environment. But it is an effective one and one that we can actively influence.A. Fallen leaves can also be recycled.B. Having too many things causes a lot of garbage.C. You sho
