As we know, fish often swim silently in the water. However, recent research by Aaron Rice, a scientist at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, has shown that fish can talk! Rice and his team found that many fish use acoustic (声学的) communication. It means they use sounds to communicate, just like we use our voices to talk with each other. Rice’s research has shown that fish have their language and can communicate with each other in many different ways. This communication is important to fish because it helps them share important information and fish use different sounds for different reasons. For example, some fish use sounds to warn of danger—if a fish senses danger, it can warn other fish by making a special sound. And they can use a different sound to find other fish of their kind. Rice’s team found that one kind of fish can make a loud sound by contracting muscles (收缩肌肉) around their swim bladders (鱼鳔). Another kind of fish that Rice studied can use their swim bladders to make a sound that is comparable to a human voice. Some scientists think that they can make that sound by rubbing (摩擦) their swim bladders together. Now, thanks to Rice’s research, we understand more about fish and their amazing abilities. And here also comes the question: Is there something else—something more secret about fish communication that we don’t know about? 34．What did Aaron Rice find? A．Fish can use their bladders to swim. B．Fish can have simple talks with humans. C．Fish can use sounds to communicate with each other. D．Fish can use sounds to communicate with other animals. 35．Which paragraph talks about the importance of communication to fish? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2. C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 36．What does the underlined word “comparable” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Similar. B．Close. C．Important. D．Necessary. 37．What may be discussed in the following paragraphs? A．Why we need to understand fish. B．Aaron Rice’s research on other animals. C．Eating more fish is good for our health. D．Fish can use body language to express themselves. 【答案】34．C 35．B 36．A 37．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了康奈尔鸟类学实验室的科学家Aaron Rice的最新研究发现——鱼可以通过声音进行交流，并探讨了这种交流方式对鱼的重要性以及鱼发出声音的方式。 34．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Rice and his team found that many fish use acoustic (声学的) communication. It means they use sounds to communicate, just like we use our voices to talk with each other.”可知，Aaron Rice发现鱼可以使用声音进行交流。故选C。 35．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This communication is important to fish because it helps them share important information and fish use different sounds for different reasons.”可知，第二段主要讲述了交流对鱼的重要性。故选B。 36．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“Another kind of fish that Rice studied can use their swim bladders to make a sound that is comparable to a human voice.”以及后文“Some scientists think that they can make that sound by rubbing (摩擦) their swim bladders together.”可知，Rice研究的另一种鱼可以用它们的鱼鳔发出一种与人类声音相似的声音，一些科学家认为它们可以通过摩擦鱼鳔来发出那种声音。由此可以推断，“comparable”在此处的意思是“相似的”。故选A。 37．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“And here also comes the question: Is there something else—something more secret about fish communication that we don’t know about?”可知，作者提出了一个问题：关于鱼的交流，是否还有我们不知道的更秘密的东西？由此可以推断，接下来的段落可能会讨论鱼的其他交流方式，如使用肢体语言来表达自己。故选D。 C When I was about 12, I had an enemy (敌人), a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings.

For the first time, I had a very clear understanding of myself. I brought the list back to Dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, when something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you.” “Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t close your ears.

Taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of (不管) age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough. The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure (血压). Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don’t have much time to sleep. they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you’ll do. How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas an expert (专家) in sleep. He says , “Sleep is like a credit (信用卡) card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should sleep to ‘pay back’ the hours on your ‘sleep credit card.” For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said. “Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish (愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.” 42．According to the writer, the easiest and cheapest way to improve health is to _________.

According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived.”可知，世界上越来越多的人睡眠不足。根据世界卫生组织的数据，世界上超过一半的人可能睡眠不足，所以划线词指“睡眠不足”，即“Having less sleep”。故选C。 44．细节理解题。根据“Sleep is like a credit (信用卡) card.”可知，Dr. James Maas认为睡眠就像一张信用卡。故选C。 45．推理判断题。根据“Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night.

You will be able to do more.”可知，不要因为晚上睡觉就认为自己会做得更少，这是一种愚蠢的想法，只有没有想象力的人才会这么想。你将会做得更多。这段话表明晚上睡觉是有益的，不要因为睡觉就认为自己会少做工作。故选B。 第二部分 非选择题 四、词汇应用(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 46．Look at the sign.

It is a good way to improve your English. Let’s check out some of the most loved English podcasts. Express Yourself! It is an interesting program for, by, and about teens. Through conversations, young people from all over the world express their views on different topics. These include things like music and friendship. It uses everyday English so you can understand it easily. Every day, All Ears English will show you how to use everyday English words, idioms, and expressions. They will also give you suggestions on American culture, customs, and manners. Don’t worry about not understanding. The language we use is easy. With Easy Stories in English, you can learn English the natural way, without studying difficult words or grammar rules. Every week, Ariel Goodbody, the language teacher, will tell a story adapted to (适应) your level of English. The stories will be humorous and enjoyable. Created by parents of young children, Circle Round turns special folk stories into interesting radio plays. They are rich in sounds and music, and are perfect for teens. Each episode (集) is short and talks about important things like honesty and courage. The language is never too difficult. 31．People expect to learn ________ from Express Yourself.

A．Hosted by teens B．Full of stories C．Friendly to English learners D．Created for Children B Can you imagine that a fish talks to you? As we know, fish often swim silently in the water. However, recent research by Aaron Rice, a scientist at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, has shown that fish can talk! Rice and his team found that many fish use acoustic (声学的) communication. It means they use sounds to communicate, just like we use our voices to talk with each other. Rice’s research has shown that fish have their language and can communicate with each other in many different ways. This communication is important to fish because it helps them share important information and fish use different sounds for different reasons. For example, some fish use sounds to warn of danger—if a fish senses danger, it can warn other fish by making a special sound. And they can use a different sound to find other fish of their kind. Rice’s team found that one kind of fish can make a loud sound by contracting muscles (收缩肌肉) around their swim bladders (鱼鳔). Another kind of fish that Rice studied can use their swim bladders to make a sound that is comparable to a human voice. Some scientists think that they can make that sound by rubbing (摩擦) their swim bladders together. Now, thanks to Rice’s research, we understand more about fish and their amazing abilities. And here also comes the question: Is there something else—something more secret about fish communication that we don’t know about? 34．What did Aaron Rice find? A．Fish can use their bladders to swim. B．Fish can have simple talks with humans. C．Fish can use sounds to communicate with each other. D．Fish can use sounds to communicate with other animals. 35．Which paragraph talks about the importance of communication to fish? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2. C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 36．What does the underlined word “comparable” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Similar. B．Close. C．Important. D．Necessary. 37．What may be discussed in the following paragraphs? A．Why we need to understand fish. B．Aaron Rice’s research on other animals. C．Eating more fish is good for our health. D．Fish can use body language to express themselves. C When I was about 12, I had an enemy (敌人), a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings. Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much and so on. I tried to hear all the shortcomings (缺点) as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever want to know what you were really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark (标记) the true points. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I found that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change like being very thin, but a good number of them I could. Suddenly, I wanted to make changes. For the first time, I had a very clear understanding of myself. I brought the list back to Dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, when something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you.” “Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t close your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do the right things.” I have remembered my dad’s advice at many important moments. In my life, there has never been a better piece of advice. 38．What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint? A．He agreed with her “enemy” and believed that she needed to change. B．He let her continue to put up with her “enemy” and not to change at all. C．He told her not to pay attention to anything her “enemy” had said. D．He told her to mark the true things in her “enemy” words and pay no attention to the rest. 39．How does the daughter’s emotion (情感) change according to the passage? A．Sad→angry→upset. B．Angry→calm→thankful. C．Uneasy→calm→proud. D．Lonely→cheerful→relaxed. 40．Which of the following can best describe the writer’s father? A．Quiet and careless. B．Wise and caring. C．Honest and outgoing. D．Kind and popular. 41．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend B．My Father C．The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had D．My Childhood D There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food. Taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of (不管) age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough. The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure (血压). Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don’t have much time to sleep. they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you’ll do. How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas an expert (专家) in sleep. He says , “Sleep is like a credit (信用卡) card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should sleep to ‘pay back’ the hours on your ‘sleep credit card.” For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said. “Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish (愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.” 42．According to the writer, the easiest and cheapest way to improve health is to _________. A．eat healthy food every day B．take exercise as much as possible C．get medical help whenever necessary D．sleep eight hours or more every night 43．What does “sleep-deprived” mean in Paragraph 2?

D．A piece of paper. 45．What do the words of the famous person mean in Paragraph 5? A．Sleeping during the night is foolish. B．Sleeping during the night is helpful. C．People have no courage. D．People always do less work. 第二部分 非选择题 四、词汇应用(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 46．Look at the sign. It says “No （smoke）”. 47．I promise Tom I would keep the secret to .
