三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the short hike from camp. To our left, snow-covered mountains disappear into clouds that seem almost close enough to touch. On the plain in front of us, we can just make out a herd of graceful animals. This is why we’re here — to observe Tibetan antelopes.
Tibetan antelopes live on the plains of Tibet, Xinjiang, and Qinghai. Watching them move slowly across the green grass. I’m struck by their beauty. I’m also reminded of the danger they are in. They are being hunted, illegally, for their valuable fur.
My guide is Zhaxi, a village from Changtang. He works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a shelter for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, the land is sacred and protecting the wildlife is a way of life. “We’re not trying to save the animals,” he says. “Actually, we’re trying to save ourselves.”
The 1980s and 1990s were bad times for the Tibetan antelope. The population dropped by more than 50 percent. Hunters were shooting antelopes to make profits. Their habitats were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.
In order to save this species from extinction, the Chinese government placed it under national protection. Zhaxi and other volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.
The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015, the Tibetan antelope was removed from the endangered species list. The government, however, does not intend to stop the protection programmes, since the threats to the Tibetan antelope have not yet disappeared.
In the evening, I drink a cup of tea and watch the stars. I think about the antelopes and what Zhaxi told me. Much is being done to protect wildlife, but if we really want to save the planet, we must change our way of life. Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet.

STRONGER TOGETHER: HOW WE HAVE BEEN CHANGED BY THE INTERNET
Much has been written about the wonders of the World Wide Web. There are countless articles telling us how the Internet has made our lives more convenient. We no longer have to wait in line or carry cash around when we go shopping. We can get the most updated information from large databases. We can download software, documents, and images whenever we need them. But the Internet has done much more for people than simply make life more convenient. People’s lives have been changed by online communities and social networks.
Jan Tchamani, an English teacher in Birmingham, UK, suddenly developed a serious illness and had to quit her job. At age 50, she found herself out of work and stuck at home with only her computer to keep her company. After a while, she discovered that surfing the Internet could help her feel less lonely and bored. She could listen to music, watch films, play games, and explore the world. She also joined an online group where she could talk about her problems and get support and advice from others. She realised that one of the greatest benefits of the Internet was its ability to remove the distance that usually exists between people.
She was so inspired by the people she met online that she decided to start an IT club to teach older people how to use computers and the Internet. She and her friends now organise events and collect money to pay for private teachers. Many people have been helped by the club. A 59 year old man learnt how to apply for work online and found a great job. Now that he works and can take care of himself,his daughter has time to study at university. A 61 year old woman who was living alone has started a small online company together with two friends. She no longer feels lonely, and her company has become quite successful.
Jan has started taking online classes to learn more about how to use the Internet to make society better. She believes that it is highly important to bridge the digital divide and make sure that everyone has access to the Internet and knows how to use new technology. Her next goal is to start a charity website to raise money for children in poor countries.
Jan’s life has been greatly improved by the Internet. “When you go through tough times, you meet others who are facing similar challenges,” Jan says. “Thinking about other people’s situations inspired me to offer help.”

Jaylynn Thorpe, 3, wandered away from his baby-sitter at 4 p.m. Friday and was missing for 21 hours as hundreds of friends, family members and officials searched for him in the thick woods of Halifax County, fearing the worst.
“The only thing we wanted to do was just keep searching until we found him,” Halifax County Sheriff Stanley Noblin told reporters.
“We didn’t forget the issue that 17 degrees was almost unbearable,” said his father, James Thorpe.
Officials said the lost little boy and the two family puppies wandered up to a mile in the dark, even across a highway, but it wasn’t until Saturday afternoon that members of the search team found him sitting by a tree, the two puppies nestled (1X17) against him.
The little boy didn’t say anything, according to the rescue team member Jerry Gentry, but instead just opened his arms up like, “I’m ready to go.”
“When I first saw him, he was like, ‘Momma, I got cold. I slept in the woods last night. The puppies kept me warm.’ He told me that the dogs slept up against him. And I’m sure their body heat kept him warm,” said his mother, Sarah Ingram.
As the child was placed in an ambulance to be taken to a local hospital for examination, the puppies were watching where he went.
As word went out that the child was alive and well, family members cheered and cried for joy.
Close to 300 people from North Carolina and Virginia joined in the search to find Jaylynn.
The boy spent Saturday night under observation at Halifax Regional Hospital and ate a double cheeseburger, a hot dog, strawberry ice cream and French fries.
Meanwhile, the furry heroes, their tails wagging, were rewarded with food.
48. According to the passage, who is Jaylynn Thorpe?
A. A lovely puppy. B. A little boy. C. A little girl. D. A student.
49. The underlined phrase “the worst” in Paragraph 1 means that ________.
A. Jaylynn was cold B. Jaylynn was hungry
C. Jaylynn missed Father and Mother D. Jaylynn was dead
50. Who accompanied Jaylynn when the people were searching for him?
A. Two children. B. Two family members.
C. Two rescue team members. D. Two dogs.
51. When Jaylynn was under observation at hospital, he was ________.

Ladies and gentlemen, I returned to this year in a time machine. In the year 2500, we are able to travel through time to any year in the history of the earth. This year is your last chance to change your lifestyle to save the earth.
Beginning in the middle of the 20th century, a few people were worried about polluting the earth’s water and air, but most people did not change their way of life. Instead, they continued to pour dangerous chemicals and other waste into lakes and seas, to drive more and more cars and trucks, and to cut down trees.
By the year 2200, the earth’s water was completely polluted. People could no longer drink water, and they had to use other types of liquids.
So, by the year 2300, there were so many people that food became scarce. There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in the lakes and seas died because of pollution. Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor. Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live.
By the year 2400, the air was too polluted for humans to breathe. So we had to leave earth. But only the rich were able to leave. Where did we go? Nowhere. The scientists did not find another safe planet, so now we must travel around the universe in our spaceships. We are still looking for a place to call our home.
So it is up to you to change history. There is still hope. You must change your lifestyle now, before it is too late.
52. Which problem is NOT talked about in Paragraph 2?
A. Water. B. Air.
C. Lifestyle. D. Food.
53. What’s the meaning of “scarce” in Paragraph 4?
A. Valuable. B. Enough.
C. Lacking. D. Special.
54. Which of the following is TRUE?
A Only a few people changed their lifestyle in the 20th century.
B. There wasn’t enough food for people to eat by the year 2200.
C. All the animals died because of pollution by the year 2300.
D. We found a new home in another planet by the year 2400.
55. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Stop Polluting
B. Change or Leave
C. Look for New Home
D. Return to the Earth
四、阅读判断题(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
WHAT’S IN A NAME?
In the 16th century, the nearby country of Wales was joined to the Kingdom of England. Later, in the 18th century, the country Scotland was joined to create the Kingdom of Great Britain. In the 19th century, the Kingdom of Ireland was added to create the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Finally, in the 20th century, the southern part of Ireland broke away from the UK, which resulted in the full name we have today: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Most people just use the shortened name: “the United Kingdom” or “the UK”. People from the UK are called “British”, which means the UK is also often referred to as Britain or Great Britain.
The four countries that belong to the United Kingdom work together in some areas. They use the same flag, known as the Union Jack, as well as share the same currency and military defense. However, they also have some differences. For example, England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland all have different education systems and legal systems. They also have their own traditions, like their own national days and national dishes. And they even have their own football teams for competitions like the World Cup!
速读文章,判断以下句子提供的信息是正确(T),还是错误(F)。
56. All people are confused by what these different names mean.
57. Getting to know a little bit about British history will be helpful.
58. In the 18th century, Wales was joined to the Kingdom of England.
59. In the 19th century, the nearby country of Wales was joined to the Kingdom of England.
60. In the 20th century, Scotland was joined to create the Kingdom of Great Britain.

三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the short hike from camp. To our left, snow-covered mountains disappear into clouds that seem almost close enough to touch. On the plain in front of us, we can just make out a herd of graceful animals. This is why we’re here — to observe Tibetan antelopes.
Tibetan antelopes live on the plains of Tibet, Xinjiang, and Qinghai. Watching them move slowly across the green grass. I’m struck by their beauty. I’m also reminded of the danger they are in. They are being hunted, illegally, for their valuable fur.
My guide is Zhaxi, a village from Changtang. He works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a shelter for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, the land is sacred and protecting the wildlife is a way of life. “We’re not trying to save the animals,” he says. “Actually, we’re trying to save ourselves.”
The 1980s and 1990s were bad times for the Tibetan antelope. The population dropped by more than 50 percent. Hunters were shooting antelopes to make profits. Their habitats were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.
In order to save this species from extinction, the Chinese government placed it under national protection. Zhaxi and other volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.
The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015, the Tibetan antelope was removed from the endangered species list. The government, however, does not intend to stop the protection programmes, since the threats to the Tibetan antelope have not yet disappeared.
In the evening, I drink a cup of tea and watch the stars. I think about the antelopes and what Zhaxi told me. Much is being done to protect wildlife, but if we really want to save the planet, we must change our way of life. Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet.

STRONGER TOGETHER: HOW WE HAVE BEEN CHANGED BY THE INTERNET
Much has been written about the wonders of the World Wide Web. There are countless articles telling us how the Internet has made our lives more convenient. We no longer have to wait in line or carry cash around when we go shopping. We can get the most updated information from large databases. We can download software, documents, and images whenever we need them. But the Internet has done much more for people than simply make life more convenient. People’s lives have been changed by online communities and social networks.
Jan Tchamani, an English teacher in Birmingham, UK, suddenly developed a serious illness and had to quit her job. At age 50, she found herself out of work and stuck at home with only her computer to keep her company. After a while, she discovered that surfing the Internet could help her feel less lonely and bored. She could listen to music, watch films, play games, and explore the world. She also joined an online group where she could talk about her problems and get support and advice from others. She realised that one of the greatest benefits of the Internet was its ability to remove the distance that usually exists between people.
She was so inspired by the people she met online that she decided to start an IT club to teach older people how to use computers and the Internet. She and her friends now organise events and collect money to pay for private teachers. Many people have been helped by the club. A 59 year old man learnt how to apply for work online and found a great job. Now that he works and can take care of himself,his daughter has time to study at university. A 61 year old woman who was living alone has started a small online company together with two friends. She no longer feels lonely, and her company has become quite successful.
Jan has started taking online classes to learn more about how to use the Internet to make society better. She believes that it is highly important to bridge the digital divide and make sure that everyone has access to the Internet and knows how to use new technology. Her next goal is to start a charity website to raise money for children in poor countries.
Jan’s life has been greatly improved by the Internet. “When you go through tough times, you meet others who are facing similar challenges,” Jan says. “Thinking about other people’s situations inspired me to offer help.”

Jaylynn Thorpe, 3, wandered away from his baby-sitter at 4 p.m. Friday and was missing for 21 hours as hundreds of friends, family members and officials searched for him in the thick woods of Halifax County, fearing the worst.
“The only thing we wanted to do was just keep searching until we found him,” Halifax County Sheriff Stanley Noblin told reporters.
“We didn’t forget the issue that 17 degrees was almost unbearable,” said his father, James Thorpe.
Officials said the lost little boy and the two family puppies wandered up to a mile in the dark, even across a highway, but it wasn’t until Saturday afternoon that members of the search team found him sitting by a tree, the two puppies nestled (1X17) against him.
The little boy didn’t say anything, according to the rescue team member Jerry Gentry, but instead just opened his arms up like, “I’m ready to go.”
“When I first saw him, he was like, ‘Momma, I got cold. I slept in the woods last night. The puppies kept me warm.’ He told me that the dogs slept up against him. And I’m sure their body heat kept him warm,” said his mother, Sarah Ingram.
As the child was placed in an ambulance to be taken to a local hospital for examination, the puppies were watching where he went.
As word went out that the child was alive and well, family members cheered and cried for joy.
Close to 300 people from North Carolina and Virginia joined in the search to find Jaylynn.
The boy spent Saturday night under observation at Halifax Regional Hospital and ate a double cheeseburger, a hot dog, strawberry ice cream and French fries.
Meanwhile, the furry heroes, their tails wagging, were rewarded with food.

Ladies and gentlemen, I returned to this year in a time machine. In the year 2500, we are able to travel through time to any year in the history of the earth. This year is your last chance to change your lifestyle to save the earth.
Beginning in the middle of the 20th century, a few people were worried about polluting the earth’s water and air, but most people did not change their way of life. Instead, they continued to pour dangerous chemicals and other waste into lakes and seas, to drive more and more cars and trucks, and to cut down trees.
By the year 2200, the earth’s water was completely polluted. People could no longer drink water, and they had to use other types of liquids.
So, by the year 2300, there were so many people that food became scarce. There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in the lakes and seas died because of pollution. Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor. Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live.
By the year 2400, the air was too polluted for humans to breathe. So we had to leave earth. But only the rich were able to leave. Where did we go? Nowhere. The scientists did not find another safe planet, so now we must travel around the universe in our spaceships. We are still looking for a place to call our home.
So, it is up to you to change history. There is still hope. You must change your lifestyle now, before it is too late.
52. Which problem is NOT talked about in Paragraph 2?
A. Water. B. Air.
C. Lifestyle. D. Food.
53. What’s the meaning of “scarce” in Paragraph 4?

54. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Only a few people changed their lifestyle in the 20th century.
B. There wasn’t enough food for people to eat by the year 2200.
C. All the animals died because of pollution by the year 2300.
D. We found a new home in another planet by the year 2400.
55 What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Stop Polluting
B. Change or Leave
C. Look for New Home
D. Return to the Earth
【答案】52. D 53. C 54. A 55. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章从未来的角度指出人们如果不改变生活方式,地球在未来几百年将发生巨变。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Beginning in the middle of the 20th century, a few people were worried about polluting the earth’s water and air, but most people did not change their way of life. (从20世纪中叶开始,一些人担心污染地球的水和空气,但大多数人没有改变他们的生活方式。)”可知,谈到了污染地球的水喝空气及生活方式,没有提到食物。故选D。
【53题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“there were so many people (有如此多的人)”及后文“There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in the lakes and seas died because of pollution (没有水种植食物,湖泊中的所有鱼都因污染而死亡)”可知,人多及没水种植食物,这些必然导致食物要变得缺乏,可推知“scarce”意为“缺乏的”,与“Lacking”意义一致。故选C。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“most people did not change their way of life (大部分人没有改变生活方式)”可知,只有很少的人改变生活方式。故选A。

四、阅读判断题(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
WHAT’S IN A NAME?
In the 16th century, the nearby country of Wales was joined to the Kingdom of England. Later, in the 18th century, the country Scotland was joined to create the Kingdom of Great Britain. In the 19th century, the Kingdom of Ireland was added to create the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Finally, in the 20th century, the southern part of Ireland broke away from the UK, which resulted in the full name we have today: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Most people just use the shortened name: “the United Kingdom” or “the UK”. People from the UK are called “British”, which means the UK is also often referred to as Britain or Great Britain.
The four countries that belong to the United Kingdom work together in some areas. They use the same flag, known as the Union Jack, as well as share the same currency and military defense. However, they also have some differences. For example, England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland all have different education systems and legal systems. They also have their own traditions, like their own national days and national dishes. And they even have their own football teams for competitions like the World Cup!
