Some of the popular gifts include chocolates, flowers, and jewelry. Many couples also take the opportunity to get engaged or married on this day. So it is a day filled with love and hope. Young women will gather to make dumplings together. They place a red date (枣) or a coin in a dumpling.

Imagine a toy which is powered by electricity. Just like toys, our bodies need sleep to recharge (充电), preparing us better for a day’s work. During sleep, our hearts and brains are taken good care of so that they keep working smoothly. Sleep also plays an important role in regulating our emotions (情绪). When we don’t get enough sleep, we may become nervous and less patient. Sleep isn’t just about resting; it’s also the time when we dream. Dreams can be like exciting movies played out in our minds while we are asleep. Although we don’t always remember our dreams, they’re an interesting part of the sleep experience. Sleep is especially important for growing kids. It’s during sleep that the body gives off growth hormones (荷尔蒙), which help children grow taller and stronger.

If the droids are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are exploring just that. In a show this week, a humanoid (有人特点的) with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc. poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate (模仿) life with robot technology. “A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you.’ ”said University of Tokyo professor Tomomasa Sato. “That’s the best part about a robot. You don’t have to feel bad about asking it to do things.” Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden (卧床不起的). Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan. The walking, child -size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at show-rooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller companion robot-on-wheels called Papero. A seal robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of fuzzy companionship. Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices (设备) monitor a person’s movements down to the smallest detail. On the bright side, the tea-pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes. 41. What is the best title of this passage? A. “Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan B. Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan C. Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly D. Robot technologies are widespread in Japanese daily life 42.

A. the robot serves tea much faster than a human being B. the robot does anything like human beings C. tea-serving robot helps to form laziness of the aging society D. tea -serving robot doesn’t need any reward for the service 44. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. A robot can imitate people to complete complicated tasks. B. A robot has been programmed to clean the dishes. C. All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots. D. The number of aging people is increasing rapidly in Japan. 45. We can infer from the passage that________. A. people are afraid of being monitored by robots B. the technology of robots has been highlighted in Japan C. robots can completely take the place of human beings D. people’s privacy should be strictly protected B The French word renaissance means rebirth. It was first used in 1855 by the historian Jules Michelet in his History of France, then adopted by historians of culture, by art historians, and eventually by music historians, all of whom applied it to European culture during the 150 years spanning 1450-1600.The concept of rebirth was appropriate to this period of European history because of the renewed interest in ancient Greek and Roman culture that began in Italy and then spread throughout Europe. Scholars and artists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries wanted to restore the learning and ideals of the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome. To these scholars this meant a return to human-as opposed to spiritual values. Fulfillment in life-as opposed to concern about an afterlife-became a desirable goal, and expressing the entire range of human emotions and enjoying the pleasures of the senses were no longer frowned (皱眉头) on. Artists and writers now turned to secular (不朽的) as well as religious subject matter and sought to make their works understandable and appealing. These changes in outlook deeply affected the musical culture of the Renaissance period--how people thought about music as well as the way music was composed, experienced, discussed, and circulated. They could see the architectural monuments, sculptures (雕塑), plays, and poems that were being rediscovered, but they could not actually hear ancient music-although they could read the writings of classical philosophers, poets, essayists, and music theorists that were becoming available in translation. They learned about the power of ancient music to move the listener and wondered why modern music did not have the same effect. For example, the influential religious leader Bemardino Cirillo expressed disappointment with the learned music of his time. He urged musicians to follow the example of the sculptors, painters, architects, and scholars who had rediscovered ancient art and literature. The musical Renaissance in Europe was more a general cultural movement and state of mind than a specific set of musical techniques. Furthermore, music changed so rapidly during this century and a half--though at different rates in different countries that we cannot define a single Renaissance style. 46. What is the passage mainly about? A. The musical compositions that best illustrate the developments during the European Renaissance. B. The musical techniques that were in use during the European Renaissance. C. The European Renaissance as a cultural development that included changes in musical style. D. The ancient Greek and Roman musical practices used during the European Renaissance. 47. The underlined word “now” in Paragraph I refers to ________. A. 1855 B. the period of the Renaissance C. the time of the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome D. the time at which the author wrote the passage 48. It can be inferred from the passage that thinkers of the Renaissance were seeking a rebirth of ________. A. spirituality in everyday life B. communication among artists across Europe C. a cultural emphasis on human values D. religious themes in art that would accompany the traditional secular themes 49. What can be inferred about the music of ancient Greece and Rome? A. Its effect on listeners was described in a number of classical texts. B. It was played on instruments that are familiar to moder audiences. C. It expressed more different ideals than classical sculpture, painting and poetry. D. It had the same effect on Renaissance audiences as it had when originally performed. 50. According to the passage, why was Bernardino Cirillo disappointed with the music of his time? A. It did not contain enough religious themes. B. It had little emotional impact on audiences. C. It was not complex enough to appeal to musicians. D. It was too dependent on the art and literature of his time. C Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450 million years, long before dinosaurs appeared. There are now about 360 species of sharks, whose size, behavior, and other characteristics differ widely. Every year, we catch and kill over 100 million sharks, mostly for food and for their fins. Dried shark fins are used to make shark fin soup, which sells for as much as $50 a bowl in fine Hong Kong restaurants. Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear. Sharks are vulnerable (易受伤的) to overfishing because it takes most species 10 to 15 years to begin reproducing and they produce only a few offspring (后代). Influenced by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters. This is far from the truth. Every year, a few types of shark injure about 100 people worldwide and kill about 25. Most attacks are by great white sharks, which often feed on sea lions and other marine(海洋的)mammals. They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their normal prey, especially if they are wearing black wet suits. If you are a typical ocean-goer, your chances of being killed by an unprovoked (非受挑衅而发生的) attack by a shark are about 1 in 100 million. You are more likely to be killed by a pig than a shark and thousands of times more likely to get killed when you drive a car. Sharks help save human lives. In addition to providing people with food, they are helping us learn how to fight cancer, bacteria, and viruses. Sharks are very healthy and have aging processes similar to ours. Their highly effective immune system allows wounds to heal quickly without becoming infected, and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research. Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost never get cancer and eye cataracts (白内障). Understanding why can help us improve human health. Chemicals taken from shark cartilage (软骨) have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals, research that someday could help prolong your life. Sharks are needed in the world’s ocean ecosystems. Although they don’t need us we need them. We are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us. For every shark that bites a person, we kill one million sharks. 51. Which of the following is NOT a reason why people kill sharks? A. People kill sharks for food. B. People kill sharks for sport. C. People kill sharks out of fear. D. People kill sharks because they often attack swimmers. 52. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? A. There are many different species of sharks, but only a few of them are dangerous to humans. B. Sharks never get ill. C. Sharks are a valuable resource for human. D. Sharks play an important role in the ocean ecosystem. 53. It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A. movies have given people the wrong impression of sharks B. most sharks are dangerous to humans C. sharks will attack anyone who is wearing black D. it is dangerous to swim in the ocean 54. The underlined word “prolong” in the last but one paragraph means ________. A. save B. protect C. lengthen D. improve 55. The best title for the passage would be ________. A. Are Sharks Dangerous? B. Sharks And Humans C. Sharks: Humans’ Friends D. Sharks Help Save Human Lives D The goal of earthquake prediction is to give early enough warning. The U.S. Geological Survey conducts and supports research on the likelihood of future earthquakes. Scientists estimate earthquake probabilities in two ways: by studying the history of large earthquakes in a special area and the rate at which strain (拉力) accumulates (积累) in the rock. Scientists study the past frequency of large earthquakes in order to determine the future likelihood of similar large shocks. For example scientists researched the large earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay region during the 75 years between 1836 and 1911. For the next 68 years, no earthquakes of magnitude (震级) 6 or large occurred in the region. Beginning with a magnitude 6 shock in 1979, the earthquakes in the region increased dramatically; between 1979 and 1989, there were four magnitude 6 or greater earthquakes, including a magnitude 7.1 earthquake. So scientists estimated that the probability of a magnitude 6.8 or larger earthquake occurring during the next 30 years in the region is about 67 percent. Another way to predict earthquakes is to study how fast strain accumulates. When plate movements build the strain in rocks to a critical level, like pulling a rubber band too tight, the rocks will suddenly break and slip to a new position. Scientists measure how much strain accumulates along a fault (断层) each year, how much time has passed since the last earthquake, and how much strain was released in the last earthquake. This information is used to calculate the time required for the accumulating strain to build to the level that results in an earthquake. This simple model is so complicated that such detailed information about faults is rare. In the United States, only the San Andreas Fault System has adequate records for using this prediction method. Scientific understanding of earthquakes is of vital importance to the Nation. As the population increases, expanding urban development and construction encroach (侵蚀) upon areas susceptible (易受影响的)to earthquakes. With a greater understanding of the causes and effects of earthquakes, we may be able to reduce damage and loss of life from this destruction. 56. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. What an earthquake is like. B. How to predict earthquakes. C. Where earthquakes often happen. D. When a fault is formed. 57. That scientists study the history of large earthquakes in certain areas is to ultimately ________. A. do research on the past frequency of large earthquakes B. estimate the magnitude of similar earthquakes C. forecast the possibilities of similar earthquake D. judge the specific location of future earthquakes 58. Which is TRUE according to the passage? A. There were four magnitude 6 earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay region between1979 and 1989. B. The accumulating strain of the fault to a certain level results in the earthquake. C. About 68 years after 1911, no earthquakes occurred in the San Francisco Bay region. D. The fast increasing population on the earth is the main cause of the earthquake. 59. What is the critical factor of forming a fault? A. The material of rocks. B. The existing time span of the rocks. C. The plate movements around the rocks. D. The amount of strain released in the last earthquake. 60. According to the passage, we can know that the San Andreas Fault System ________. A. has a greater understanding of the causes and effects of earthquakes B. stores much more information about the history of large earthquakes C. offers the potential for doing research on the faults where strain accumulates D. illustrates specifically how rocks along a fault are formed （2023年·河北对口真题） A Helen Keller was born in the USA in 1880.

I get up at 6 o’clock every morning and leave the house at 6:50. It only takes about 15 minutes to walk to the train station, but I leave myself plenty of time because the trains are never on time. The trains are quite old, so they often break down. If the train breaks down, the train company sends buses for the passengers. It takes much longer to get to the city because the bus stops many times along the way. If there is a breakdown, I usually get to the university late for my class. But I do prefer taking the train because I can read or write on it. Buses, on the other hand, are very uncomfortable. They make people roll about (摇摇晃晃) as they move and stop. I have been thinking about riding a bicycle recently to the city. Although it is even slower than the buses, it would be good for exercise. 46. What time do I usually arrive at the train station? A. 6:50. B. 7:05. C. 7:15. D. 7:30. 47. Why do I leave myself plenty of time before the train arrives? A. Because I get up very late. B. Because it's a long way from home to the train station. C.

The material and tools used for paper cutting are simple, paper and scissors. Paper-cuts are usually made of red paper, because red is associated with happiness in traditional Chinese culture. Therefore, on festive (喜庆的) occasions such as weddings, red paper- cuts are the first choice for decorating doors and windows. Everything can become the theme of paper-cuts, from people to things that can be found in everyday life. They are often pasted on the windows, walls, doors or lanterns to express the feelings of joy, happiness and hope in life. There are different styles of paper-cuts, the most famous of which are the southern and northern styles. The style in the southern area of China is delicate (精巧的)，with scenery, birds and flowers as the main subjects. The northern style is simpler and more expressive because of its rough (粗矿的) lines and designs. 51. Paper-cut_____________.

Nowadays, we don’t often watch such films because they are not colorful and hard for us to enjoy the interaction (互动) between the characters. In order to make audience understand the story, the actors in silent films had to use a lot of body language and facial expressions. When an actor wanted to show his surprise, he would open the mouth and eyes very wide and hold one hand up to the face. Silent films were also very short because it was difficult to make up a long story without speech. When we see a silent film, we may find that it is difficult to see the actors’ faces because they always wore heavy make-up (化浓妆). Though the silent films seemed simple, they were still very expensive at that time. 41. Silent films in the 1920s ________ today’s films.

B After a long workday, all you want to do is to go home, sit on the couch and turn on the TV. Have you ever planned to go to the gym after work? “I’ll go tomorrow, I promise.” But of course, tomorrow will be exactly the same. Here are some tips for getting yourself to go to the gym after a long workday. For example, although it’s hours before you go to the gym, having a balanced breakfast will keep you energized throughout the rest of the day. Try to include eggs, fruits and whole grain bread in your breakfast. It is also helpful to eat a light lunch. No matter what you are eating, if you have too much of it, your blood sugar is going to rise rapidly and then plummet back down. This will leave you sleepy and lazy. Try to avoid foods with refined carbohydrates (碳水化合物) or lots of sugar. Keeping your blood sugar steady will stabilize (稳定) your energy, help you get more done, and make you feel awake enough to go to the gym. 46. According to the passage, after a long workday, all you want to do is _________.

Is it spoken in Britain, the USA, Canada, Australia, India and and New Zealand? Believe it or not, there is no such thing as Standard English. Many people believe the English spoken on TV and the radio is Standard English. This is because in the early days of radio, those who reported the news were expected to speak excellent English. However, on TV and the radio you will hear differences in the way people speak. When people use words and expressions different from the “standard language”, it is called a dialect (方言). American English has many dialects, especially the Midwestern, southern, African American and Spanish dialects. Even in some parts of the USA, two people from neighbouring (邻近的) towns speak a little differently. American English has many dialects because people have come from all over the world. Geography (地理) also plays a part in making dialects. Some people who live in the mountains of the eastern USA speak with an older kind of English dialect. When Americans moved from one place to another, they took their dialects with them. So people from the mountains in the southeastern USA speak almost the same dialects as people in the northwestern USA. The USA is a large country in which many different dialects are spoken. Although many Americans move a lot, they still recognize and understand each other’s dialects. 51. In which countries is English spoken according to the passage? A. Britain, the USA and Japan. B. Canada, Australia and China. C. Australia, India and New Zealand. D. India, Russia and New Zealand. 52. Is the English spoken on TV and the radio standard English? A. Yes, it is Standard English. B. No, it is British English. C. Yes, it is spoken in the same way. D. No, it is spoken in a different way. 53. Why does American English have so many dialects? A. Because Americans speak Standard English. B. Because Americans have come from different places of the world. C. Because Americans like speaking dialects. D. Because Americans don’t like Standard English. 54. What kind of people in America speak with an older kind of English dialect? A. Some people living in the mountains of the southern USA. B. Some people living in the mountains of the eastern USA. C. Some people living in the mountains of the northern USA. D. Some people living in the mountains of the western USA. 55. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Standard English and dialects. B. Standard English. C. Spoken English and dialects. D. American dialects.

Just like toys, our bodies need sleep to recharge (充电), preparing us better for a day’s work. During sleep, our hearts and brains are taken good care of so that they keep working smoothly. Sleep also plays an important role in regulating our emotions (情绪). When we don’t get enough sleep, we may become nervous and less patient. Sleep isn’t just about resting; it’s also the time when we dream. Dreams can be like exciting movies played out in our minds while we are asleep. Although we don’t always remember our dreams, they’re an interesting part of the sleep experience. Sleep is especially important for growing kids.

If the droids are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are exploring just that. In a show this week, a humanoid (有人特点的) with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc. poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate (模仿) life with robot technology. “A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you.’ ”said University of Tokyo professor Tomomasa Sato. “That’s the best part about a robot. You don’t have to feel bad about asking it to do things.” Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden (卧床不起的). Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan. The walking, child -size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at show-rooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller companion robot-on-wheels called Papero. A seal robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of fuzzy companionship. Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices (设备) monitor a person’s movements down to the smallest detail. On the bright side, the tea-pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes. 41. What is the best title of this passage? A. “Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan B. Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan C. Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly D. Robot technologies are widespread in Japanese daily life 42. The underlined word “embedded” in the first paragraph probably means ________. A. fixed B. established C. settled D. rooted 43. According to Professor Sato, ________. A. the robot serves tea much faster than a human being B. the robot does anything like human beings C. tea-serving robot helps to form laziness of the aging society D. tea -serving robot doesn’t need any reward for the service 44. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. A robot can imitate people to complete complicated tasks. B. A robot has been programmed to clean the dishes. C. All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots. D. The number of aging people is increasing rapidly in Japan. 45. We can infer from the passage that________. A. people are afraid of being monitored by robots B. the technology of robots has been highlighted in Japan C. robots can completely take the place of human beings D. people’s privacy should be strictly protected 【答案】41. D 42. A 43. D 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在日本，机器人被广泛使用，可以倒茶，也可以照顾老人，陪人娱乐，机器人受到广泛的欢迎。 【41题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Japan is very serious about robotics (机器人技术). (日本人对机器人技术十分严肃。)”及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍机器人技术在日本的广泛应用，特别是用于日常生活。故选D。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate (模仿) life with robot technology. (然后另一个带轮子的机器人在实验室里传送茶水，实验室的地板和沙发上……有传感器，天花板上也有摄像头，用于模仿有机器人技术的生活状态。)”可知，传感器是根据实验需要，安装在实验室的地板和沙发上，划线词“embedded”应是指“安装，嵌入”。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you.’ (人动作可能快一点，但你不必说“谢谢”。)”可知，人类在享受了机器人的服务后，不必感谢，机器人无需回报。故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“NEC Corp. has developed a smaller companion robot-on-wheels called Papero.

(NEC公司改进了更小型的陪伴型轮式机器人，起名Papero。自2004年起可使用的心理治愈机器人，在不明确陪伴的需求下，能为老人和其他人提供娱乐。)”可知，目前机器人可以解决老龄化社会的一些陪伴问题。选项C“All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots. (老龄化社会的所有问题都能被机器人解决。)说法过于绝对，与原文不符。故选C。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Japan is very serious about robotics (机器人技术). (日本在机器人技术方面极为重视。)”可知，日本十分重视机器人技术。故选B。 B The French word renaissance means rebirth. It was first used in 1855 by the historian Jules Michelet in his History of France, then adopted by historians of culture, by art historians, and eventually by music historians, all of whom applied it to European culture during the 150 years spanning 1450-1600.The concept of rebirth was appropriate to this period of European history because of the renewed interest in ancient Greek and Roman culture that began in Italy and then spread throughout Europe. Scholars and artists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries wanted to restore the learning and ideals of the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome. To these scholars this meant a return to human-as opposed to spiritual values. Fulfillment in life-as opposed to concern about an afterlife-became a desirable goal, and expressing the entire range of human emotions and enjoying the pleasures of the senses were no longer frowned (皱眉头) on. Artists and writers now turned to secular (不朽的) as well as religious subject matter and sought to make their works understandable and appealing. These changes in outlook deeply affected the musical culture of the Renaissance period--how people thought about music as well as the way music was composed, experienced, discussed, and circulated. They could see the architectural monuments, sculptures (雕塑), plays, and poems that were being rediscovered, but they could not actually hear ancient music-although they could read the writings of classical philosophers, poets, essayists, and music theorists that were becoming available in translation. They learned about the power of ancient music to move the listener and wondered why modern music did not have the same effect. For example, the influential religious leader Bemardino Cirillo expressed disappointment with the learned music of his time. He urged musicians to follow the example of the sculptors, painters, architects, and scholars who had rediscovered ancient art and literature. The musical Renaissance in Europe was more a general cultural movement and state of mind than a specific set of musical techniques. Furthermore, music changed so rapidly during this century and a half--though at different rates in different countries that we cannot define a single Renaissance style. 46. What is the passage mainly about? A. The musical compositions that best illustrate the developments during the European Renaissance. B. The musical techniques that were in use during the European Renaissance. C. The European Renaissance as a cultural development that included changes in musical style. D. The ancient Greek and Roman musical practices used during the European Renaissance. 47. The underlined word “now” in Paragraph I refers to ________. A. 1855 B. the period of the Renaissance C. the time of the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome D. the time at which the author wrote the passage 48. It can be inferred from the passage that thinkers of the Renaissance were seeking a rebirth of ________. A. spirituality in everyday life B. communication among artists across Europe C. a cultural emphasis on human values D. religious themes in art that would accompany the traditional secular themes 49. What can be inferred about the music of ancient Greece and Rome? A. Its effect on listeners was described in a number of classical texts. B. It was played on instruments that are familiar to moder audiences. C. It expressed more different ideals than classical sculpture, painting and poetry. D. It had the same effect on Renaissance audiences as it had when originally performed. 50. According to the passage, why was Bernardino Cirillo disappointed with the music of his time? A. It did not contain enough religious themes. B. It had little emotional impact on audiences. C. It was not complex enough to appeal to musicians. D. It was too dependent on the art and literature of his time. 【答案】46. C 47. B 48. C 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了文艺复兴时期欧洲文化的复兴，特别关注了音乐风格的变化。 【46题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文及最后一段“The musical Renaissance in Europe was more a general cultural movement and state of mind than a specific set of musical techniques. Furthermore, music changed so rapidly during this century and a half--though at different rates in different countries that we cannot define a single Renaissance style.

(人生的圆满——而不是对来生的担忧——成为了一个理想的目标，表达人类全部的情感和享受感官的快乐不再被反对。艺术家和作家现在转向世俗和宗教题材，并试图使他们的作品易于理解和吸引人。)”可知，“now”指的是文艺复兴时期，即学者和艺术家开始关注世俗主题和人类情感的时期。故选B。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“To these scholars this meant a return to human-as opposed to spiritual values. (对这些学者来说，这意味着回归人性，而不是精神价值。)”可知，文艺复兴时期的学者和艺术家想要恢复古典文明的学问和理想，这更多地体现了对人性的重视，而非宗教或艺术主题。故选C。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“They learned about the power of ancient music to move the listener and wondered why modern music did not have the same effect. (他们了解到古代音乐能打动听众，并想知道为什么现代音乐没有同样的效果。)”可知，文艺复兴时期的学者虽然无法听到古代音乐，但他们通过阅读古典哲学家、诗人等的著作了解到古代音乐的力量。可推知古代音乐对听众的影响在古典文本中有所描述。故选A。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“They learned about the power of ancient music to move the listener and wondered why modern music did not have the same effect. For example, the influential religious leader Bemardino Cirillo expressed disappointment with the learned music of his time. He urged musicians to follow the example of the sculptors, painters, architects, and scholars who had rediscovered ancient art and literature. (他们了解到古代音乐能打动听众，并想知道为什么现代音乐没有同样的效果。例如，有影响力的宗教领袖贝马迪诺·西里洛（Bemardino Cirillo）对他那个时代学识渊博的音乐表示失望。他敦促音乐家们效仿那些重新发现古代艺术和文学的雕塑家、画家、建筑师和学者。)”可知， Bemardino Cirillo对当时学识渊博的音乐感到失望，他希望音乐家能效仿那些重新发现古代艺术和文学的雕塑家、画家。可推知他认为那时期的音乐对观众影响力不大，期望音乐能像古代艺术一样具有情感上的影响力。故选B。 C Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450 million years, long before dinosaurs appeared. There are now about 360 species of sharks, whose size, behavior, and other characteristics differ widely. Every year, we catch and kill over 100 million sharks, mostly for food and for their fins. Dried shark fins are used to make shark fin soup, which sells for as much as $50 a bowl in fine Hong Kong restaurants. Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear. Sharks are vulnerable (易受伤的) to overfishing because it takes most species 10 to 15 years to begin reproducing and they produce only a few offspring (后代). Influenced by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters. This is far from the truth. Every year, a few types of shark injure about 100 people worldwide and kill about 25. Most attacks are by great white sharks, which often feed on sea lions and other marine(海洋的)mammals. They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their normal prey, especially if they are wearing black wet suits. If you are a typical ocean-goer, your chances of being killed by an unprovoked (非受挑衅而发生的) attack by a shark are about 1 in 100 million. You are more likely to be killed by a pig than a shark and thousands of times more likely to get killed when you drive a car. Sharks help save human lives. In addition to providing people with food, they are helping us learn how to fight cancer, bacteria, and viruses. Sharks are very healthy and have aging processes similar to ours. Their highly effective immune system allows wounds to heal quickly without becoming infected, and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research. Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost never get cancer and eye cataracts (白内障). Understanding why can help us improve human health. Chemicals taken from shark cartilage (软骨) have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals, research that someday could help prolong your life. Sharks are needed in the world’s ocean ecosystems. Although they don’t need us we need them. We are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us. For every shark that bites a person, we kill one million sharks. 51. Which of the following is NOT a reason why people kill sharks? A. People kill sharks for food. B. People kill sharks for sport. C. People kill sharks out of fear. D. People kill sharks because they often attack swimmers. 52. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? A. There are many different species of sharks, but only a few of them are dangerous to humans. B. Sharks never get ill. C. Sharks are a valuable resource for human. D. Sharks play an important role in the ocean ecosystem. 53. It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A. movies have given people the wrong impression of sharks B. most sharks are dangerous to humans C. sharks will attack anyone who is wearing black D. it is dangerous to swim in the ocean 54. The underlined word “prolong” in the last but one paragraph means ________. A. save B. protect C. lengthen D. improve 55. The best title for the passage would be ________. A. Are Sharks Dangerous? B. Sharks And Humans C. Sharks: Humans’ Friends D. Sharks Help Save Human Lives 【答案】51. D 52. B 53. A 54. C 55. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章全面介绍了鲨鱼，纠正人们对鲨鱼的误解，强调鲨鱼对人类及海洋生态系统的重要性，呼吁人们正确认识并保护鲨鱼。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“we catch and kill over 100 million sharks, mostly for food and for their fins (我们捕获并杀死了超过1亿条鲨鱼，主要是为了食物和鱼翅)”以及“Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear (其他鲨鱼则因为运动和恐惧而被杀害。)”可知，人们捕杀鲨鱼是为了食物，运动，或出于害怕，没有提到因为他们攻击游泳者。故选D。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost never get cancer and eye cataracts (鲨鱼是世界上少数几乎不会患癌症和白内障的动物之一)”可知，鲨鱼几乎不会患癌症和白内障，但不能就此说鲨鱼从不生病，B选项表述过于绝对。故选B。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Influenced by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters (受电影和流行小说的影响，大多数人将鲨鱼视为食人怪物)”可知，电影给人们带来了对鲨鱼的错误印象。故选A。 【54题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段“Chemicals taken from shark cartil age have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals, research that someday could help prolong your life. (从鲨鱼软骨中提取的化学物质已经杀死了实验动物的癌性肿瘤，这项研究有一天可能有助于延长你的生命。)”可知，鲨鱼软骨里面的化学物质可以杀死癌细胞，所以此处说的是这可能有助于延长人类寿命，“prolong”意思是“lengthen (延长)”。故选C。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了鲨鱼对人类的益处，如帮助人类对抗疾病，在海洋生态系统中有重要作用等，强调鲨鱼是人类的朋友。选项C“Sharks: Humans’ Friends (鲨鱼：人类的朋友)”符合主旨大意。故选C。 D The goal of earthquake prediction is to give early enough warning. The U.S. Geological Survey conducts and supports research on the likelihood of future earthquakes. Scientists estimate earthquake probabilities in two ways: by studying the history of large earthquakes in a special area and the rate at which strain (拉力) accumulates (积累) in the rock. Scientists study the past frequency of large earthquakes in order to determine the future likelihood of similar large shocks. For example scientists researched the large earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay region during the 75 years between 1836 and 1911. For the next 68 years, no earthquakes of magnitude (震级) 6 or large occurred in the region. Beginning with a magnitude 6 shock in 1979, the earthquakes in the region increased dramatically; between 1979 and 1989, there were four magnitude 6 or greater earthquakes, including a magnitude 7.1 earthquake. So scientists estimated that the probability of a magnitude 6.8 or larger earthquake occurring during the next 30 years in the region is about 67 percent. Another way to predict earthquakes is to study how fast strain accumulates. When plate movements build the strain in rocks to a critical level, like pulling a rubber band too tight, the rocks will suddenly break and slip to a new position. Scientists measure how much strain accumulates along a fault (断层) each year, how much time has passed since the last earthquake, and how much strain was released in the last earthquake. This information is used to calculate the time required for the accumulating strain to build to the level that results in an earthquake. This simple model is so complicated that such detailed information about faults is rare. In the United States, only the San Andreas Fault System has adequate records for using this prediction method. Scientific understanding of earthquakes is of vital importance to the Nation. As the population increases, expanding urban development and construction encroach (侵蚀) upon areas susceptible (易受影响的)to earthquakes. With a greater understanding of the causes and effects of earthquakes, we may be able to reduce damage and loss of life from this destruction. 56. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. What an earthquake is like. B. How to predict earthquakes. C. Where earthquakes often happen. D. When a fault is formed. 57. That scientists study the history of large earthquakes in certain areas is to ultimately ________. A. do research on the past frequency of large earthquakes B. estimate the magnitude of similar earthquakes C. forecast the possibilities of similar earthquake D. judge the specific location of future earthquakes 58. Which is TRUE according to the passage? A. There were four magnitude 6 earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay region between1979 and 1989. B. The accumulating strain of the fault to a certain level results in the earthquake. C. About 68 years after 1911, no earthquakes occurred in the San Francisco Bay region. D. The fast increasing population on the earth is the main cause of the earthquake. 59. What is the critical factor of forming a fault? A. The material of rocks. B. The existing time span of the rocks. C. The plate movements around the rocks. D. The amount of strain released in the last earthquake. 60. According to the passage, we can know that the San Andreas Fault System ________. A. has a greater understanding of the causes and effects of earthquakes B. stores much more information about the history of large earthquakes C. offers the potential for doing research on the faults where strain accumulates D. illustrates specifically how rocks along a fault are formed 【答案】56. B 57. C 58. B 59. C 60. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家通过研究历史地震数据和岩石中张力的积累来预测地震的可能性。文章强调了地震预测的重要性以及科学家为此所采取的两种主要方法：一是研究特定地区历史上的大地震频率，二是测量断层沿线张力的积累速度。 【56题详解】 主旨大意题。根据每一段首句“The goal of earthquake prediction is to give early enough warning. (地震预报的目的是尽早发出预警。)”、“Scientists study the past frequency of large earthquakes in order to determine the future likelihood of similar large shocks.

Believe it or not, there is no such thing as Standard English. Many people believe the English spoken on TV and the radio is Standard English. This is because in the early days of radio, those who reported the news were expected to speak excellent English. However, on TV and the radio you will hear differences in the way people speak. When people use words and expressions different from the “standard language”, it is called a dialect (方言). American English has many dialects, especially the Midwestern, southern, African American and Spanish dialects. Even in some parts of the USA, two people from neighbouring (邻近的) towns speak a little differently. American English has many dialects because people have come from all over the world. Geography (地理) also plays a part in making dialects. Some people who live in the mountains of the eastern USA speak with an older kind of English dialect. When Americans moved from one place to another, they took their dialects with them. So people from the mountains in the southeastern USA speak almost the same dialects as people in the northwestern USA. The USA is a large country in which many different dialects are spoken. Although many Americans move a lot, they still recognize and understand each other’s dialects. 51. In which countries is English spoken according to the passage? A. Britain, the USA and Japan. B. Canada, Australia and China. C. Australia, India and New Zealand. D. India, Russia and New Zealand. 52. Is the English spoken on TV and the radio standard English? A. Yes, it is Standard English. B. No, it is British English. C. Yes, it is spoken in the same way. D. No, it is spoken in a different way. 53. Why does American English have so many dialects? A. Because Americans speak Standard English. B. Because Americans have come from different places of the world. C. Because Americans like speaking dialects. D. Because Americans don’t like Standard English. 54. What kind of people in America speak with an older kind of English dialect? A. Some people living in the mountains of the southern USA. B. Some people living in the mountains of the eastern USA. C. Some people living in the mountains of the northern USA. D. Some people living in the mountains of the western USA. 55. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Standard English and dialects. B. Standard English. C. Spoken English and dialects. D. American dialects. 【答案】51 C 52. D 53. B 54. B 55.
