20、 looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, “Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd (a foolish person).” I had quite a weekend planned, so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running towards him

21、. They knocked all his books out of his arms and tripped (絆倒) him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. So, I jogged over to him and as he crawled around looking for his g

22、lasses, I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, I said, “Those guys are jerks. They really should go to hell.” He looked at me and said, “Hey, thanks!” There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real thankfulness. I asked him where he lived. As it turned

23、out, he lived near me. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. I teased him all the time about being a nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation. As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began. “Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through th

24、ose tough years. I am here to tell you a story.” I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldnt have to do it later and was carrying his stuff h

25、ome. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. “Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable.” I heard the gasp (倒吸氣) go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his Mom and Dad looking at me and smiling that same gr

26、ateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize its depth.35. Why did Kyle carry all of his books home? A. Because it was Friday.B. Because he was a nerd. C. Because he wanted to kill himself.D.

29、. Kyles glasses.D. Kyles arms.C Back in old times, people had little knowledge about the universe and nature. Things we now consider to be common sense were mysteries to our ancestors. Over the years, major breakthroughs have been made in science and many phenomena have been explained. But still, th

30、ere are always questions we cant yet answer, and The Guardian has listed some of them. 1. What makes us human? Just looking at your DNA wont tell you human DNA is 99 percent identical to that of the chimpanzee and, believe it or not, 50 percent identical to a bananas! A lot of the things we once tho

31、ught were unique about us language and tool use, recognizing ourselves in the mirror and so on have since been seen in other animals. Perhaps its our culture that makes the difference or maybe our ability to use fire. Its also possible that our capacity (能力) for co-operation and our trading skills a

32、re what make us unique. 2. Why do we dream? Given the fact that we spend around a third of our lives sleeping, shouldnt we know everything about it? Unfortunately, scientists are still searching for a complete explanation of what happens when we sleep and why we dream. Austrian psychologist Sigmund

33、Freud believed dreams were the expressions of wishes that we cant fulfill in our real lives. Others have wondered whether dreams are just random “noise” coming from a sleeping brain. 3. Could we someday live forever? Apart from accidents, most people die because of diseases that can be treated and a

34、ging. And since many diseases, such as diabetes (糖尿病) and cancer, are diseases of aging, treating aging itself could be the key to extending our lives. Our knowledge of what causes us to age and what allows some animals to live longer than others is expanding rapidly. And though we havent quite work

35、ed out all the details, weve worked out some pieces of the puzzles such as DNA damage and metabolism (新陳代謝), which are all leading to the invention of drugs that can slow down the aging process. If were lucky enough to lengthen our lives, we might even get to see the day when all of these questions

36、are answered.39. The main point of the passage is _. A. to inform people of the knowledge about the universe and nature B. to introduce major breakthroughs that have been made in science C. to present some questions we cant yet answer D. to explain what were once mysteries to our ancestors40.

37、nzees and bananas are mentioned as examples to prove that _. A. human beings are actually not different from other animals B. animals have completely different DNA from that of plants C. both animals and plants share the same amount of DNA D. DNA alone is not good enough to make humans different41.

38、The underlined word “identical” is closest in meaning to _. A. mysteriousB. uniqueC. advancedD. same42. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. What were mysteries to our ancestors are considered to be common sense now. B. Now we know much more about dreams than our an

39、cestors did in the past. C. With the invention of new drugs people can possibly live even longer. D. If all the diseases can be treated people can theoretically live forever.D WELLINGTON, September 19 (Xinhua) If your teenage son wont get out of bed in the morning, then take comfort from the fact th

40、at he might be sleeping his way to a healthier future, according to a new research from New Zealand. Researchers in human nutrition at the University of Otago have found that teenage boys who sleep less have more body fat when compared to girls, for whom lack of sleep has no noticeable effect on the

41、ir body fat ratios. The study of 386 boys and 299 girls aged 15 to 18 found that average-sized 16-year-old boy weighing 69.5 kg and 176 cm tall, who slept for eight hours a day, had a waist size 1.8 cm bigger and 1.6 kg, or 9 percent, more body fat than the average-sized boy who slept 10 hours a day

42、. “The boys who slept eight hours a day would also have 1.8 kg more lean (bone and muscle) mass compared to the boys who slept 10 hours, but thats only a 1.4-percent increase, compared to the 9-percent increase seen in body fat,” said lead researcher from the Department of Human Nutrition, Dr. Paula

43、 Skidmore. “Our results suggest that for older teenage boys, making sure that they get enough sleep may help to maintain a healthier body. It seems to be that, within reason, the more sleep the better for boys,” Skidmore said in a statement Thursday. “It was unexpected that we did not find the same

44、result in girls, who may actually be more aware of their diet and more in tune with a healthier lifestyle.” The researchers ruled out the effects of food choice and number of screens, such as televisions, games and consoles, which the teenagers had in their bedrooms.43. Whats the research really abo

45、ut? A. Boys and girls.B. Food and weight.C. Sleep and health.D. Screens and fat.44. Whats the result of less sleep for teenage boys? A. Bigger waist and more fat in the body.B. An increase in weight and height. C. More concerned with their diet.D. A decrease in bone and muscle.45. From the sixth par

46、agraph we can infer that _. A. girls usually sleep less and have healthier lifestyles than boys B. the researchers expected to see the same result in girls C. peoples diet has a great effect on their health D. boys are usually lazier than girls46. Who would be the most pleased to hear the news? A. T

47、eachers.B. Girls.C. Parents.D. BoysE I give two examples as to why intelligent life may not actually exist, though I admit that for me, or even for a physicist who devoted his or her entire life to researching and studying the universe, its shocking to claim that completely no life exists elsewhere.

48、 Keeping that in mind, Id just like to consider conditions elsewhere in the known universe. You really only need to look at our own solar system or the Earth at certain periods in its own history to appreciate that most places are much worse and much less suitable for life than our mild, watery glob

49、e. So far, space scientists have discovered about seventy planets outside the solar. But it appears that if you wish to have a planet suitable for life, you just have to be very lucky, and the more advanced the life is, the luckier youll have to be. Im by no means a space observer, but I can recogni

50、ze some particularly fortunate breaks weve had on the Earth. For example: We are, to a degree, at the right distance from the perfect type of star, the one that is big enough to radiate a huge amount of energy, but not so big as to burn itself out quickly. Had our sun been ten times as huge, it woul

51、d have burnt out completely after only ten million years, instead of ten billion and surely we would not exist. Too near, everything on the Earth would have boiled and withered away; any further, everything would have frozen over. The universe is a surprising place, and our existence within it is a

52、wonder. If a long and unimaginably complex sequence of events dating back 4.6 billion years or so hadnt happened in a particular manner at a particular time if, to take just one example, the dinosaurs hadnt been wiped out by a meteor (流星) we might still be a few centimeters long, with whisker (胡須) a

53、nd a tail, and youll be reading this in a cave somewhere.47. Whats the best title for this passage? A. No Life Exists out of the EarthB. Seventy Planets Discovered C. A Place Full of WondersD. Perfect Conditions for Life48. What makes the Earth more suitable for life than other planets in the solar

54、system? A. The Earth is the only planet that can receive energy from the sun. B. The sun is at the right distance from us and in proper size. C. The distance between the planets was neither too long nor too near. D. The dinosaurs were no longer a threat to the Earth.49. What does the underlined phra

55、se “withered away” in the 4th paragraph mean? A. Exploded.B. Expanded.C. Floated away.D. Dried and died.50. Where does the text probably come from? A. A history book.B. A magazine.C. A science fiction.D. A famous novel.第二節(jié) 根據(jù)對(duì)話內(nèi)容，從對(duì)話后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)多余選項(xiàng)。（共5小題；每小題2分，共10分） Good af
