10、四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。AOn a cold evening of April our ship was sailing for Ireland. Suddenly a violent storm rose and overturned our ship. Fortunately I held a board and was washed up on an island.It was completely dark. On reaching the island, I found a smooth place to lie down. Quite tired I slept
11、 for a long time. I woke up with a start when I was dazzled(使目眩) by glaring sunlight. How I felt hungry and thirsty! The island with its beautiful landscape at dawn appeared before my eyes.I began to explore the island. It was an uninhabited_island surrounded by trees. Yellow fruit in the light wind
12、 made me feel hungry. I tasted one. How sweet and delicious it was! I ate greedily a lot then I lay down comfortably on the soft grass. Around me were fragrance(芳香) and singing of birds. There, far away, on the right, a waterfall was falling down the mountainside. I rushed toward it. In the afternoo
13、n when I was wandering around the island, I happened to find out a cave hidden behind the thick forest. It was convenient for me to turn it into a place for sleeping for the night.Day in day out, nearly two weeks passed by. My food was mere fruit and some fish caught from the stream. Sometimes I tri
14、ed to hunt some wild animals but in vain. Had I been equipped with necessary things, I would have enjoyed remaining here for food.One morning I caught sight of a boat. I signaled and shouted out loudly. I was rescued but so far I have had the memories of a fairy land which I had once happened to dis

DHe made the island clean.22What is the RIGHT time order of the following events?aHe wandered around the island.bHe was dazzled by glar

18、I left home for college, I sought to escape the limited world of farmers, small towns, and country life. I long for the excitement of the city, for the fast pace that rural life lacked, for adventure beyond the horizon. I dreamed of exploring the city, living within a new culture and landscape, and
19、becoming part of the pulse of an urban jungle.Yet some of my best times were driving home, leaving the city behind and slipping back into the valley. As city life disappeared and traffic thinned, I could see the faces of the other drivers relax. Then, around a bend in the highway, the grassland of t
20、he valley would come into being, offering a view of gentle rolling hills. The land seemed permanent. I felt as if I had stepped back in time.I took comfort in the stability of the valley. Driving through small farm communities, I imagined the founding families still rooted in their grand homes, gene
21、rations working the same lands, neighbors remaining neighbors for generations. I allowed familiar farmhouse landmarks to guide me.Close to home, I often turned off the main highway and took a different, getting familiar farms again and testing my memory. Friends lived in those houses. I had eaten me
22、als and spent time there; I had worked on some of these farms, lending a hand during a peak harvest, helping a family friend for a day or two. The houses and lands looked the same, and I could picture the gentle faces and hear familiar voices as if little had been changed. As I eased into our drivew
23、ay Id return to old ways, becoming a son once again, a child on the family farm. My feelings were honest and real. How I longed for a land where life stood still and my memories could be relived. When I left the farm for college, I could only return as visitor to the valley, a traveler looking for h
24、ome.Now the farm is once again my true home. I live in that farmhouse and work the permanent lands. My world may seem unchanged to casual observers, but they are wrong. I know this: if theres a constant on these farms, its the constant of change.The good observer will recognize the differences. A fa
25、rmer replants an orchard (果园) with a new variety of peaches. Irrigation is added to block of old grapes, so I imagine the vineyard has a new owner. Occasionally the changes are clearly evident, like a FOR SALE sign. But I need to read the small print in order to make sure that a bank has taken posse
26、ssion of the farm. Most of the changes contain two stories. One is the physical change of the farm, the other involves the people on that land, the human story behind the change.Ive been back on the farm for a decade and still havent heard all the stories behind the changes around me. But once I add
27、 my stories to the landscape, I can call this place my home, a home that continues to evolve and changes as I add more and more of my stories.A poet returns to the valley and says, “Little has changed in the valley, and how closedminded you all are！” He comments about the lack of interest in sports,
28、 social and environmental issues in the poverty and inequality of our life. He was born and raised here, so he might have the right to criticize and lecture us. Yet he speaks for many who think they know the valley. How differently would others think of us if they knew the stories of a grape harvest
29、 in a wet year or a peach without a home?25The most important reason why the writer wanted to move to the city is that _.A. he did not want to work on the farmB. he wanted to make new friendsC. he was eager for a different life thereD. there were more things to do there26What made the writer relax a

The land seemed familiar to him.27When driving through the valley the writer was guided home by _.Afamiliar farmhouses which left him a good mem
31、oryBhouses that had sheltered generations of the same familyCland that had been worked by a family for generationsDlarge farms which stretched out right before him28When he was in college, why was the writer sad when he returned to his family home?A. He remembered how hard he used to work.B. He real
32、ized that he was only a visitor.C. He recognized the old housed and land.D. He remembered his next door neighbors.CMillions of people die of hunger in Southern Africa every year, but when Zambia was offered thousands of tons of free maize by the US, the government politely said no.“We dont know whet
33、her the food is safe，” said Zambias Commerce, Trade and Industry Minister Dipak Patel.His worries are shared by countries around the world that are in_two_minds about Americas genetically modified(GM, 转基因的) crops. Just last week, EU(欧盟) member nations were discussing whether or not to import GM swee
34、t corn from the US.Ever since people started farming, they have tried to crossbreed(杂交) plants to make them stronger or better tasting. At one time, only related plants could be crossed with each other.But when GM techniques were developed in the 1970s, scientists were able to put a single gene from
35、 a living creature into an unrelated creature.This means they can make crops more productive and resistant to disease by adding genes from other species. They can also create food with special characteristics, such as “golden rice”， which is enriched with vitamin A. But many people believe GM foods
36、are a health risk.“If left to me, I would certainly not eat GM foods，” said Scottish scientist Arpad Pusztai. “We are putting new things into food which havent been eaten before. The effects on the immune system(免疫系统) are not easy to predict.”At the moment, the official argument is that GM foods “ar
37、e not likely to present risks for human health”. But there are still many questions to be answered as the foods are produced in different ways.Some experts believe the genetic material added to plants can transfer to humans and give damage to our bodies. Further harm could be caused by the genes fro
38、m GM plants crossbreeding with naturally produced crops.29We learn from the passage _.Apeople have discovered that GM foods will do harm to human healthBmillions of Zambia people die of eating too much GM foodsCpeople are still not sure if GM foods will do harm to human healthDgenetic material added

DCareless.31Which of the following statements is NOT true about GM foods?AIt is produced from plants added genes from other species.BGM foods can have special characteri
40、stics.CGM foods will affect peoples immune system.DGM foods have been produced since 1970s.32Whats the authors attitude?ASupportive. BNeutral.CDoubtful. DCritical.DSome students get so nervous before a test, and they do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock has studied these highly anx
41、ious testtakers.Sian Beilock: “They start worrying about the consequences. They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want. And when we worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources. I talk about it as your cognitive
42、 horsepower that you could otherwise be using to focus on the exam.”Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious testtakers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.Sian Beilock: “What we think
43、happens is when students put it down on paper, they think about the worst that could happen and they reassess the situation. They might realize its not as hard as they might think it was before and, in essence, it prevents these thoughts from popping_up when theyre actually taking a test.”The resear
44、chers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short math tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test.The researchers added to the pressure. They told the students that
45、 those who did well on the second test would get money. They also told them that their performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of twelve percent worse on the second test. But the students who had written about th
46、eir fears improved their performance by an average of five percent.Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the test.Prefessor Beilock says highly anxious students who
47、did the writing got an average grade of B， compared to a Bfor those who did not.Sian Beilock: “What we showed is that for students who are highly testanxious, whod done our writing intervention, all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. Those students most likel
48、y to worry were performing just as well as their classmates who dont normally get nervous in these testing situations.”But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam or presentation? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in
49、the library and still improve their performance.33What may happen if students have the problem of test anxiety?ATest anxiety can improve students performance to some degree.BStudents attention and memory resources run out when worried.CStudents may not be admitted into their favorite college if worr

82、 students helping parents with chores. Here are the reasons. Firstly, it can reduce the burden over our parents and it is clearly a form of expressing thanks to them. As is known to us all, our parents are busy with their work to bring us up. They are filled with pressure. If we help them do some ch
83、ores such as cleaning up rooms, polishing furniture, washing clothes, cooking meals, etc. they will have more time to relax themselves. We are being instructed to be thankful to parents. Surely enough, it is one of the best ways. What s better, by doing chores, we can be increasingly aware of the ne
84、cessity of labor and gradually improve the ability of independence. Most importantly, by doing it, we may adjust our mind, forgetting about our homework for the moment and thus improving our learning.Thats_all._Thank_you!听力部分录音材料(Text 1)M：Ill take two cheeseburgers, two orders of fries, a large Coke
