3、a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly，” Mr. Johnson said. “I couldnt force the doors open because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in.” Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, f
4、irst tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn (笛) and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape. Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to g
5、et into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.” It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench (扳手) and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minute
6、s passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally_it_gave,_but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and climbed up clear as the car filled up.” His hands and arms cut and bruised, Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby. Huddled in a blank
7、et, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch. 21Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr. Johnson?AThe hammer.BThe coin. CThe seat. DT

But recent scientific studies have shown that plants communicate with each other and with other living things in a surp
11、rising number of ways. To understand them, scientists say, we just have to learn their language. Farmers are especially interested in what plants have to say.“Plants are able to communicate with all sorts of organisms (有机体). They can communicate with giant bacteria, with other plants and with insect
12、s. They do this chemically，” said Cahill, an Ecology Professor of the University of Alberta in Canada.Plant scientists are just beginning to understand this chemical “language”. Cahill says studies have shown, for example, that plants can evaluate conditions in their immediate environment and take a
13、ppropriate actions. Plants have an ability, for example, to signal pain or discomfort caused by anything from temperature extremes to an insect attack. Jack Schultz, a professor of chemical ecology at the University of Missouri, says when a plant senses that its being eaten, it cannot walk away from
14、 trouble; on the contrary, it will release a chemical vapor that alerts other plants nearby.“Their language is a chemical language, and it involves chemicals that move through the air that are easy to be changeable, and most of all are smells that we are familiar with，” Schultz explained.“All plants
15、 responded to the attack by changing their chemistry to defend themselves，” Schultz recalled. “But we were quite surprised to find that nearby plants also changed their chemistry to defend themselves, even though they were not part of the experiment.”Studies have also shown that plants under attack

19、eaten Dallow28Which would be the best title for the passage?ACommunication between Plants BA Chemical “Language”CPlants Can Talk DHow Plants Protect ThemselvesCFor thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church
20、and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news. As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historicists. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “The Old Trip t
21、o Jerusalem”， which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England. However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pubs landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the
22、 fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.Thats how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩 ) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to s
23、pend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned (禁止) smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline(衰退) is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 pm. Previously, with 11 pm. as cl
24、osing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”， and it causes longterm health problems for people and problems with violent crime
25、for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Mens Clubs”， meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experienc

Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.29The passage mainly tells us something about _.Athe long history of British pubsBthe decline of British pubsCthe past and present of British pubsDthe importance of British pubs30Which may not be the cause of the decline of Briti
27、sh pubs?AThe credit crunch.BThe present closing time.CThe ban of smoking. DHaving no spare money.31We can infer from the passage that _.Abinge drinking means drinking less beerBBritish people used to like drinking slowlyCclosing the pubs early will reduce social problemsDBritish government aims to d
28、iscourage people from binge drinking32We can see from the last Paragraph that the author _.Aholds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubsBis against the admission of too many women to the pubsCthinks that women in the pubs will cause less social problemsDthinks that British pubs should offer
29、 everything you needDTo the Editor，Re Why a Fallen Angel Is a Centerfold (Sunday Review, Nov. 6): I first met Lindsay Lohan in 1997 when she was 11 and I was the casting director (挑选演员的人) of the film The Parent Trap. I was struck by her talent, fresh charm and innocence the moment I caught sight of
30、her. She was, and remains, a gifted actress and a good human being.It is not for me to judge Ms Lohans choices, or whether fame has been less than kind to her, but I have been greatly saddened by the way the media have chosen, with all gloves off and seemingly going with what could please them, to r
31、ecord her efforts and failures. She is a sentient (能感知事物的) human being, not a thing, not a product, not anything else to be sold.Charles McGrath makes several attractive points in his news analysis about the public demand which is impossible to satisfy, in a 24/7 news cycle forever changed by the In
32、ternet, to gossip about, and give nearly complete access to, celebrity or famous persons lives. Perhaps people do feel better knowing that wealth and fame do not lead to a perfect life for everyone. Perhaps we admire famous people only to reject them without any pity or mercy when their behavior dis

61、20位驾驶人员中就有一位表示车贴和娱乐设备会导致发生交通事故以及Brake提醒大家清理车里杂乱的物品可推知，它们 可能是危险的。答案A22.解析态度判断题。根据第二段中的“Baby on Board signs are.isnt in the car”以及“Worse.or other road users at risk.”可知，Julie Townsend对车贴积极的一面以及消极的一面都做了客观的描述，由此可推知她的态度是客观的。答案D23.解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“four out of five of them believe they improve safety”可知，大多数
62、司机认为这能使行驶更安全。答案A24.解析写作意图题。本文介绍了英国最新的调查发现汽车车贴成为“马路杀手”的事实，其目的就是告诉人们当前存在的一个交通安全隐患。答案BB.【语篇解读】 耶鲁大学华裔教授Amy Chua的新书虎妈战歌成为美国人热议的话题，她提出的“中国式”严苛教子方法引发了巨大争议。25.解析推理判断题。由文章第二段“In her book Ms.Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters.”及其后她对孩子的苛刻要求的“几个不准”、孩子自己的“几个不能”以及成绩总是A等，足见其为一个“苛求的”人
63、，即demanding。答案C26.解析细节理解题。文章第二段“They had to play piano or violinand no other musical instruments.”很清楚地表明答案为A。答案A27.解析细节理解题。由文章倒数第三段末尾“Stacy DeBroff advised parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.”可以得出答案为B。答案B28.解析推理判断题。文章末尾句：“In that sense，a young adults giftedness can be born，or made.”
64、“从这个意义上讲，年轻人的天赋可以是天生的，也可以通过后天严格的教养而激发”，故D项正确。A项与原文意思achievable“有成就的”有出入，文中并无信息表明“persistent，dedicated parental guidance”是“最好的”。答案DC. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，题材是学校教育。作者通过讲述我与儿子的老师在办公室的谈话的故事，证明我让儿子保留母语的想法是正确的。最后，儿子得益于他的双语技能找到了高薪的工作。【解析】29. A。推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的My son could not follow the teachers directions, he to
65、ld me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class可知：儿子不听老师的话，还扰乱课堂。这些都是儿子在课上的表现。故选A。干扰项排除：B项说作者给儿子注册上幼儿园，这不是在老师办公室谈的；C项、D项文章内容没有提到。30.D。猜测词义题。根据文章第四段中的My son could not follow the teachers directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class可知，and前后并列关系，内容相近。所以，根据前文的“他不听老师的指导”可以推知disrupt意为：
66、扰乱。故D正确。31. C。考查作者态度题。根据文章最后一段的Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places可以推知作者认为：不止讲一种语言让人们和（更多的）人进行交流，这教会人们了解其他的地方和文化，这是一些最基本的东西。儿子就得益于双语技能。由此可知作者持积极的态度。故C正确。A批判的；B漫不经心的；D消极的。它们都不合文意。32. B。推理判断题。根据文章的语篇解读可知，文章通篇
67、讲述的是有关教育的话题。所以，本文应该是从有关教育的书中节选的。故B正确。D. 本文为新闻式的说明文。本文主要报道了一位高中生因其一项电容器的发明而在英特尔国际科学与工程大赛中胜出，并因此获得了50 000美元的奖金。该电容器虽小，但却能储存大量的能量，因此可以迅速给手机充电。33C34A 推理判断题。Khare今年18岁，再根据第三段“The teenager who came from California，and graduated from high school last week，won a $50，000 prize on May 17，2013 at the Intel Int
68、ernational Science and Engineering Fair”可知该文写于2013年，由此可推断她应该出生于1995年。35D 推理判断题。根据第五段“The technology isnt available to consumers yet，and it could be years until it is.”可知该发明尚未投入使用，故选D项。36-40 G F A D C 41. A前面提到了“记得一个电话”。call是电话之意，当然下文仍然指当电话响的时候我正在家的厨房里，当然选phone。42. Aline 仍然指电话的意思。43. C从下句可知有几个问题要问。44
69、. Bbe in good health .身体状况良好。45. Bfor 我把你的小说卖了一百五十万块钱。46. D意为：听了这一好消息很是震惊。47. A指以前写的小说一直都被出版社拒绝。 48. C句意是说：很多人都会泄气。49. B advise sb. to do sth.建议某人做某事50.

Secondly, it shows that people are becoming richer, and the country much more stronger. It also makes relative businesses and industries develop faster.Others have different opinions. They think that cars give off waste gas and pollute the environment. Too many cars will have some bad effects, such as more accidents. Besides, overloaded parking cars is another big problem. In my view, people should think carefully before they buy a car.
