Zoo advocates argue that they save endangered species and educate the public,but many animal rights activists believe the costs outweigh the benefits,and the violation()of the rights of the individual animals is unreasonable.Roadside zoos,petting zoos,and smaller animal exhibitors tend to offer inadequate space for the animals,keeping them in pens or cages. Sometimes cold concrete and metal bars arc all a tiger or bear will know for their entire lives. Larger,trusted zoos try to distance themselves from these operations by selling how well the animals are treated,but to animal rights activists,the problem is not how well the animals are treated,but whether we have a right to limit them for our amusement or "education". By bringing people and animals together,zoos educate the public and promote an appreciation of the animals.This exposure and education motivate people to protect the animals.Zoos save endangered species by bringing them into a safe environment,where they are protected from poachers(偷猎者)，habitat loss,starvation,and predators(捕食者).Many zoos also have multiplying programs for endangered species.In the wild,these individuals might have trouble finding mates and multiplying.A good zoo provides an enriched habitat in which the animals are 52无敌原创·单元卷高中英语·必修第二册 never bored,are well cared for,and have plenty of space.Zoos are a tradition,and a visit to a zoo is a healthy,family activity.In the case of zoos,both sides will argue that their side saves animals.Whether,or not zoos benefit the animal community,they certainly do make money.As long as there is demand for zoos,they will continue to exist.We can start by making sure that zoo conditions are the best possible for the animals who are limited to them. 21.Who are for zoos? A.Animal rights activists. B.Zoo advocates. C.Animal-loving advocates. D.All the poachers'activists. 22.What will happen to zoos in the future? A.Zoos will be cancelled. B.Zoos will be combined with aquariums(水族馆). C.Zoos will be limited. D.Zoos will become better and better. 23.What is the text mainly about? A.Endangered species in zoos. B.Zoos'advantages and disadvantages. C.People and animals in zoos. D.Arguments for and against zoos. B Although most people know there are Seven Wonders in the Ancient World,only few people can name them.This is because most of them are no longer there except the pyramids.However, there is a growing list of wonders of the world today. About nine years ago,UNESCO's(联合国教科文组织)World Cultural and Nature Heritage (自然文化遗产)List had411 places and 136 countries were responsible to protect them,and the list keeps on growing.Usually,it is the task of a group of 21 Experts to decide which places go on the list.The experts are chosen to work for six years.Their work is to examine and discuss the suggestions from different countries.They also manage the World Heritage Fund()which can offer help to countries for protection work.Over the past centuries a lot of cultural or historic places have been destroyed by man or nature.Protecting our natural and cultural heritage is a long and difficult task.Earthquakes,floods,pollution,wars,or even tourism are some of the dangers that harm the heritage. When a historic place is in great danger,it is put on the World Heritage in Danger List and necessary things will be done to protect it.Places which are on the danger list include Historic Bridges of Indiana,St.Elizabeth's Hospital,Rosenwald School in Southern U.S.,etc. 24.The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World include A.Golden Gate Bridge B.Sydney Opera House C.the Great Wall D.the pyramids 25.According to the passage, may provide some money for protecting the cultural relics. A.UNESCO B.the World Heritage Fund C.the 21 Experts D.some countries 26.Why does the World Cultural and Natural Heritage List keep on growing? A.There are more cultural heritages beginning to appear. B More countries begin to build cultural heritages C.A lot of cultural or historic places have disappeared. D.More and more cultural heritages are in great danger. 27.What would be the best title for this passage? 如 A.Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. 剂 城 B.21 Experts. C.The Growing List of Wonders of the World. 地 D.Some Historic Places in Danger. 长 IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII People from all over the world have different wedding traditions and marriage customs.The one thing that all wedding ceremonies commonly seem to have is the commitment()of love for all time during a public ceremony. Everyone at a wedding hopes for great happiness between the wedding couple.Wedding traditions are usually a way of showing signs of the hope for great happiness.Some of these traditions are very interesting. In Sweden,the traditional bride will wear three rings by the end of the wedding ceremony.

Wedding traditions in the Philippines include the Pandango,a dance which can last for hours. During the Pandango,guests pin(用大头针别住)money to the bride's dress to pay for their honeymoon. A traditional Irish bride may wear a blue wedding dress-believing blue to be a lucky color. English Lavender ()is often mixed with her wedding flowers.It is traditional for the bride to braid her hair ()-as it is considered a good way to bring luck to the new couple.

D The new study shows that we spend more time using the mobile Internet to read newspapers and magazines or do some other things.According to the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB),the average European spends 4.8 hours reading newspapers and magazines but 1.6 hours more using the mobile Internet per week. The IAB questioned 15,000 people in 15 European countries,looking at how people were using the Internet and its influence on their everyday lives.It found that the mobile Internet is 53 increasingly finding its way into the public awareness.Over 71 million Europeans now have Internet access on their mobile phones.In the UK,10 million people now access the Internet through their mobile phones and spend 6.3 hours doing so per week averagely. Unsurprisingly,young generations in the UK are leading the way,with nearly half of the country's 16-to 24-year-olds and a quarter of 25-to 34-year-olds using the Internet,spending 6.5 and 6.2 hours online each week. Entertainment plays a main role in our mobile Internet lives,with one in five British people using their phones for online games,a third listening to the online radio and 39 percent watching films,TV or other videos at least once a week.One third of those using an Internet phone said they received videos,images or other multimedia on their mobile,and 61 percent said they passed on the contents they had received. From a communication point of view,80 percent of those questioned agreed that the Internet had made it easier for them to stay in touch with friends and family. Alison Fennah,director of the IAB,said the use of the mobile Internet had come to the point that marketers should be looking to strategies (that connect them with consumers more effectively."Better devices as well as improved consumer motivation that start coming together in 2011 can make a great difference to extending the online experience,Fennah said. 32.How long does a European spend on the mobile Internet per week according to the IAB?

Do you like to listen to music when you work? Ask this question at a party,and you'll probably get 41 responses.Some will say they love it,claiming that it improves their performance;others will say they find it distracting 注意力的)and cannot work42_with music playing in the background, Interestingly enough,our research has found that both of these viewpoints can be true.It just 43 on what sort of work you're doing. In a recent study,we brought participants into our lab to perform a variety of tasks.They included a(n)44 task-searching through word lists and crossing out words containing the letter "a"and a more difficult task-memorizing word pairs and 45 word to its partner.Some participants completed all of the tasks in silence,46 others completed the tasks with instrumental music that was either loud or soft,and either simple or complex,the latter meaning music with more instruments being played.Several key findings 47 from our study. 製 We found that participants who listened to simple music or no music performed about the same on the easy task.However,participants who listened to 48 music performed best on the 地 easy task. 剂 On the contrary,participants performed worse on the more difficult task when they listened 城 to any music,regardless of complexity or volume,compared to those who didn't listen to any ▣ music. 长 How should we 49 these findings? IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII We suggest that people have limited mental resources from which both 50 and tasks can draw.We can become 51 and our minds may wander when these resources are not fully used. But we also can become over-excited and 52 when these resources are used up. Not surprisingly,we typically need to use fewer of our mental resources when we perform easy tasks,whereas demanding tasks require more brainpower.However,because we might be less 53 during easier tasks,there's a greater risk of drifting off.Music might give us the extra 54 we need to overcome the monotony ()However,difficult tasks already demand lots of our resources.Listening to music can become too much. So best 55 should appear when we strike "sweet spot",which may depend on the type of music and the type of task. 41.A.fixed B.similar C.various D.positive 42.A.effectively B.immediately C.exactly D.happily 43.A.depends B.focuses C.carries D.takes 44.A.unpleasant B.familiar C.impossible D.easy 45.A.matching B.realizing C.suggesting D.creating 46.A.until B.while C.since D.when 47.A.faded B.appeared C.survived D.responded 48.A.dull B.reliable C.necessary D.complex 49.A.make up for B.make out C.make use of D.make up 50.A.music B.work C.study D.culture 51.A.surprised B.bored C.afraid D.proud 52.A.interested B.distracted C.attracted D.worried 53.A.disgusted B.embarrassed C.frightened D.engaged 54.A.obstacle B.push C.opportunity D.rule 55.A.action B.program C.performance D.problem 第二节（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 With rapid 56 (extinct)of many wild species,more and more people come to realize the great significance of wildlife protection.

The door opened and Wendy Barton came out.I walked in,sat down on the piano bench and began to sort through my sheet music.Today Mrs.Windsor introduced her niece Pasha to teach me. With a smile,Pasha sat beside me on the piano bench,opened my sheet music to the beginning page and asked me to play.I arranged my fingers on the keys.Then I frowned() and concentrated to make the notes on the page match the finger movements.I had to admit I was a rather mechanical(呆板的)pianist. After about a page or two,Pasha gently put her hand on top of mine as if to calm my fingers. There was a long pause."What are you hearing in the music?"I looked at her rather strangely and admitted I didn't know what she meant."Like a story.Here,let me try and you listen,"Pasha advised. 56 无敌原创·单元卷高中英语·必修第二册 She closed her eyes and took a deep breath,letting her fingers dance lightly over the keys. Then,she began to play."See,it begins here beside some kind of river.Hear the water flowing beside you?"Her fingers rose and fell gently on the keys."Now a princess appears and she's picking flowers from the water's edge."A happy piece of music filled the air in time to Pasha's dancing fingers.

W:One thing I like is seeing them have so much fun,even if sometimes their behavior isn't perfect.And I can suggest activities that haven't been tried before.But there are always some children who haven't quite got as much ability as others,and for me the most rewarding part of the job is getting them to succeed in things they haven't managed to do before.It's hard work though.Sometimes you are on duty at night. M:Mm...what do you think about that?

important part of people's lives.Libraries were important parts of both universities and town centers,and many of the first successful companies in modern times made their money by selling books.Like newspapers,publishers used to have a lot of power and influence,but nowadays,the companies that control digital information seem to have taken over.In particular,e-books have replaced traditional books for most modern readers, especially in big cities,for whom everything has to be easy to carry and convenient to use.Tech companies like Amazon and Apple sell "e-readers"that can contain thousands of books, and their online stores list millions of titles,far more than any bookstore could ever hold.As more and more people buy computers,smart phones,and tablets,the market for e-books continues to grow.Many traditional book publishers and bookstores have gone out of business.For example,Border's Group used to be one of the largest bookstores in the United States,with more than 600 locations and billions of dollars in sales every year.But after e-books appeared,they started losing money and had to close all their stores. 第二部分阅读理解 第一节 [语篇解读] 这是一篇议论文。人们对动物园的看法不一，作者分别阐述
