Section B(22分)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person's intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.
Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.
36. Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Paragraph 1?
A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.
B. Intelligence is developed by the environment.
C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid.
D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.
37. It is suggested in this passage that_______.
A. close relation usually have similar intelligence
B. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligence
C. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligence
D. people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence
38. The phrase “at random”(Line3, para.2) means _______ .
A. purposely B. frequently
C. aimlessly D. independently
39. The best title for this article would be_______.
A. What Dose Intelligence Mean ?
B. On Intelligence
C. We Are Born with Intelligence
D. Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence
(B)

Iceland, an island just south of the Arctic Circle, has fairly mild winters, thanks to warm ocean currents. Time your vacation here during the winter months to take advantage of off-season deals.
Off-season means good deals on flights, hotels and tours. You may also find that the locals are a bit friendlier and more welcoming when tourists aren’t arriving in crowds.
In the winter months, there are less than seven hours of daylight; thus, chances are good you’ll catch sight of the northern lights. Sunsets are also beautiful at this time, making for some great photo opportunities.
In Iceland, winter is the perfect time to hike glaciers, go ice climbing, explore caves made out of hardened lava(岩浆) and much more. One of the most popular activities is off-roading (越野比赛) in a specially-equipped “super jeep”.
Before booking your trip, be sure to check for volcano alerts. There are about 130 volcanoes on or around Iceland. Thirty-five of them are active. In 2010, a volcano named Eyjaallajokull exploded, sending clouds of ash up to four kilometers into the atmosphere. The ash drifted toward the UK and Europe. Because the ask could damage aircraft engines, airlines operating in the region were forced to cancel flights for six days. As a result, thousands of people were stuck in airports.
Recently, another volcano named Bardarbunga has become active, erupting ash into the air. Such events, if large enough, could prevent your trip from going ahead. So check the latest volcano news prior to making your reservations.
43. According to this article, why are you more likely to see the northern lights in the winter?
A. They move from rural areas to cities.
B. The weather is more stable at that time.
C. They’re a special feature of many festivals.
D. The sky is dark for longer periods then.
44. According to the article, how do visitors to Iceland have fun in the winter?
A. They learn how to ski down the mountains.
B. They photograph famous historic sites..
C. They explore the countryside in well made vehicles..
D. They spend a week at one of the seaside resorts.
45. What is true about the volcanoes of Iceland?
A. The majority of them are quiet.
B. Their age hasn’t been determined.
C. All but one of them are extinct.
D. Citizens aren’t affected by them.
46. What does this article explain?.
A. Some of Iceland’s urban cultural attractions.
B. A way t reduce the cost of a trip to Iceland.
C. Reasons for visiting Iceland in June and July.
D. The average price for a short tour of Iceland.

Everyone knows that fish is good for health. ____47____ But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult. ____48____ This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.
When buying fish, you should first smell it. Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. ____49____ When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.
There are many common methods used to cook fish. ____50____ First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices. Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.

Section B(22分)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person's intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.
Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.
36. Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Paragraph 1?
A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.
B. Intelligence is developed by the environment.
C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid.
D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.
37. It is suggested in this passage that_______.
A. close relation usually have similar intelligence
B. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligence
C. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligence
D. people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence
38. The phrase “at random”(Line3, para.2) means _______ .
A. purposely B. frequently
C. aimlessly D. independently
39. The best title for this article would be_______.
A. What Dose Intelligence Mean ?
B. On Intelligence
C. We Are Born with Intelligence
D. Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence
【答案】36. D 37. A 38. C 39. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。这个世界上的人们,有的聪明,有的愚蠢。短文介绍了一个人的智力极限在出生时就确定了,他是否达到这些极限将取决于他所处的环境。
【36题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段倒数第二句Thus the limits of person's intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. 尽管人在出生时候的智力是有限的,他是否能够突破这些限制取决于他所处的环境。由此判断出D选项“智力在出生时是固定的,但它会随着环境而发展”最能描述作者的观点。故选D
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第二句 The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence.可知,两个人之间的血缘关系越近,他们的智力可能更相近。由此判断出亲密的关系通常有相似的智力。故选A项。
【38题详解】
词句猜测题。根据所在短语前一句我们知道两个人之间的血缘关系越近,他们的智力可能更相近。在根据第二段it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different可知,如果我们在人群中…的选择两个无关联的人,他们的智力水平可能完全不同。故可以推测,,at random是aimless“无目的的”的意思。故选C项。
【39题详解】
主旨大意题。这个世界上的人们,有的聪明,有的愚蠢。短文介绍了一个人的智力极限在出生时就确定了,他是否达到这些极限将取决于他所处的环境。所以本文是针对人的智力以及其影响因素进行了解说,所以短文的最佳标题是关于智力。故选B
(B)

Iceland, an island just south of the Arctic Circle, has fairly mild winters, thanks to warm ocean currents. Time your vacation here during the winter months to take advantage of off-season deals.
Off-season means good deals on flights, hotels and tours. You may also find that the locals are a bit friendlier and more welcoming when tourists aren’t arriving in crowds.
In the winter months, there are less than seven hours of daylight; thus, chances are good you’ll catch sight of the northern lights. Sunsets are also beautiful at this time, making for some great photo opportunities.
In Iceland, winter is the perfect time to hike glaciers, go ice climbing, explore caves made out of hardened lava(岩浆) and much more. One of the most popular activities is off-roading (越野比赛) in a specially-equipped “super jeep”.
Before booking your trip, be sure to check for volcano alerts. There are about 130 volcanoes on or around Iceland. Thirty-five of them are active. In 2010, a volcano named Eyjaallajokull exploded, sending clouds of ash up to four kilometers into the atmosphere. The ash drifted toward the UK and Europe. Because the ask could damage aircraft engines, airlines operating in the region were forced to cancel flights for six days. As a result, thousands of people were stuck in airports.
Recently, another volcano named Bardarbunga has become active, erupting ash into the air. Such events, if large enough, could prevent your trip from going ahead. So check the latest volcano news prior to making your reservations.
43. According to this article, why are you more likely to see the northern lights in the winter?
A. They move from rural areas to cities.
B. The weather is more stable at that time.
C. They’re a special feature of many festivals.
D. The sky is dark for longer periods then.
44. According to the article, how do visitors to Iceland have fun in the winter?
A. They learn how to ski down the mountains.
B. They photograph famous historic sites..
C. They explore the countryside in well made vehicles..
D. They spend a week at one of the seaside resorts.
45. What is true about the volcanoes of Iceland?
A. The majority of them are quiet.
B. Their age hasn’t been determined.
C. All but one of them are extinct.
D. Citizens aren’t affected by them.
46. What does this article explain?.
A. Some of Iceland’s urban cultural attractions.
B. A way t reduce the cost of a trip to Iceland.
C. Reasons for visiting Iceland in June and July.
D. The average price for a short tour of Iceland.
【答案】43. D 44. C 45. A 46. B

【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Thirty-five of them are active.”可知,35%的火山是活跃的,其它的65%是不活跃的,所以大部分是不活跃的火山。
【46题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇就提出“淡季出行可以省钱”,后面介绍冬季冰岛的游玩亮点,同时提醒火山风险。全文核心推荐淡季(冬季)出游,也就是一种节省旅行开支的方式。
