16、der Bill Gates, but we can read like him. Gates recommended four books in 38though some were published earlier.Leonardo da Vinci, by Walter Isaacson (37)The bestselling biographer of Steve Jobs and Albert Einstein researched deeply into da Vincis contributions beyond art, highlighting the breadth of

17、 his scientific, technological, and creative output. “Leonardo nearly understood almost all of what was known on the planet at the time. Thats mostly because of his curiosity about every area of natural science and the human experience,” said Gates.The Best We Could Do: An Illustrated Memoir, by Thi

18、 Bui (37)Gates calls this graphic novel “really impressive”. Bui is the daughter of Vietnamese refugees who came to America after the fall of Saigon, and becoming a parent inspired her to look into her own parents miserable history. “I was struck by how the experiences Bui illustrates manage to be b

19、oth universal and specific to their circumstances,” said Gates.Lincoln in the Bardo, by George Saunders (38)Saunders, a long-time short story writer, won high praise for this novel. The book imagines the ghosts that haunt (縈繞) the basement of Willie Lincoln, Abraham Lincolns son, who died at 11 in r

20、eal life. “Willies death after the Civil War made the president have a new understanding of the grief hes creating in other families by sending their sons off to die in battle,” said Gates.Origin Story: A Big History of Everything, by David Christian (38)This new book is by the creator of Big Histor

21、y, a free, online social studies course. It traces history in wide, sweeping movements, starting with the Big Bang, and it provides, in effect, a short course in modern science. This is a brief history of the universe. “David gets a little stuck on the current economic and political problems in the

22、West, and I wish he talked more about the role innovation will play in preventing the worst effects of climate change,” said Gates.1、Which books refer to the field of science?AOrigin Story and Leonardo da Vinci.BLincoln in the Bardo and Origin Story.CLeonardo da Vinci and The Best We Could Do.DThe B

25、 to a research.Fraser Island, off the coast of Queensland, offers a rare opportunity to observe the native wild dogs, but people can occasionally meet dingoes acting in a threatening or aggressive manner toward them, resulting in human injury and, in one tragic case, death, according to a research p

26、aper published on Thursday in the Pacific Conservation Biology scientific journal.Reviewing a wide range of measures to help manage wild animals, the researchers said moves to minimize harm from dingoes have included electric fencing and warning signs. However, “strong umbrellas” and “mild chemical

27、irritant (刺激性的) sprays” could also offer personal protection.Australian dingoes, which feature ratably in native culture but are also viewed as a threat to livestock in some areas, are listed as an endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The medium-sized dogs have b

28、road heads, pointed muzzles, and red or yellow coats, and are found across the country except Tasmania, according to government agency Tourism Australia.Fraser Island, stretches over 123 kilometres in length and 22 kilometres at its widest point. With an area of 184 000 hectares, it is the largest s

29、and island in the world. The island prides attractions such as its superb scenery and humpback whales, and is also home to the most pure strain of dingoes remaining in eastern Australia.By bringing up instances of how an umbrella “rapidly opened in front of charging bears was enough to cause them to

30、 stop or move back”, the researchers said “an open, strong umbrella may also serve as useful protection against a dingo making a very close approach”.1、Which of the following is true about Australian dingoes?AThey are fierce and big.BThey are native and famous in Australia.CThey can be found in ever

31、y island of Australia.DThey often cause harm to humans and livestock.2、They are all attractions of Fraser Island EXCEPT .Abears BdingoesCscenery Dhumpback whales3、We can infer from the last paragraph that .Adingoes are as dangerous as bears in AustraliaBpeople always use umbrellas to frighten away b

32、earsCif umbrellas work on bears, so do they on dingoesDthe umbrellas are specially designed against bears and dingoes24（8分）The latest IPCC report does not mince words(直言不諱地) about the state of our planet: we must act now to achieve global change at a scale that has “no documented historical preceden

33、t(先例)” in order to avoid the climate disaster that would result from a 2 degree C rise in average global temperature. Climate change already affects the worlds most helpless people including poor rural communities that depend on the land for their livings and coastal communities. Indeed, we have alr

34、eady seen the clear asymmetry(不對稱) of suffering resulting from extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, floods, droughts, wildfires and more.So far, advocates and politicians have tended to focus on reducing fossil fuel(礦物燃料) consumption through technology and/or policy, such as a sharp carbon ta

35、x, as climate solutions. These proposals are, of course, essential to reducing manmade carbon emissions(排放)-71 percent of which are produced by just 100 fossil fuel companies.Yet the international focus on fossil fuels has overshadowed(使.顯得不重要) the most powerful and cost-efficient carbon-capture tec

36、hnology the world has yet seen: forests. Recent scientific research confirms that forests and other “natural climate solutions” are absolutely essential in reducing climate change. In fact, natural climate solutions can help us achieve 37 percent of our climate target, even though they currently rec

37、eive only 2.5 percent of public climate financing.Forests power to store carbon dioxide through the simple process of tree growth is staggering:_one tree can even store an average of about 48 pounds of carbon dioxide in one year. Recent research show undamaged forests are capable of storing the same

38、 amount of the carbon dioxide emissions of entire countries such as Peru and Colombia.For this reason, policy makers and business leaders must create and strengthen ambitious policies to prevent deforestation, and support the sustainable management of standing forests in the fight against climate ch

39、ange. Protecting the worlds forests ensures they can continue to provide essential functions aside from climate stability, including producing oxygen, filtering water and supporting biodiversity. Not only do all the worlds people depend on forests to provide clean air, clean water，oxygen, and medici

40、nes, but 1.6 billion people rely on them directly for their livelihoods.1、According to the passage, climate change _.Awill surely achieve at a scale that is more serious than ever beforeBwill only affect people living in the poorest rural regionsCis likely to lead to more frequent extreme weather ev

41、entsDis entirely determined by fossil fuel consumption2、Whats the finding of the new research?AReducing fossil fuels is the most powerful and cost-efficient technology.BForests are vital to reducing climate change due to their storage power.CMost of our climate targets can be accomplished with the h

42、elp of natural climate solutions.DNatural climate solutions have proved less efficient than conventional solutions.3、The underlined word “staggering” in Paragraph 4 means _.Aastonishing Bspeeding Cembarrassing Dshrinking4、Whats the authors purpose of writing this article?ATo compare two different ap

43、proaches to dealing with climate change.BTo argue against the view that focus on fossil fuels reduction counts.CTo urge scientists to do more research into natural climate solutions.DTo point out forests are the most powerful weapon for fighting climate change.25（10分） Centuries ago, these caves were

44、 places of worship (祭祀) for Buddhist monks. Today theyre homes for 200 poor Afghan families and one classroom.Fereshta Ahmadi was able to stay in school after her family moved to the caves about a decade ago. Shes now a senior at an all-girls high school in Bamyan but she felt the need to educate th

45、e children of cave settlers. So 6 years ago, she transformed her living space into a classroom.For 2 hours every day she teaches 30 primary school-age kids different subjects including English. She says she wants to give an opportunity to the children who dont have access to mainstream schools.“Cave

46、 settlers are no different from people who live in modern communities or people who live in fancy apartments and buildings. They, too can study, can go to public schools and take private courses so they build their abilities and development.”Using her own money, the young teacher opened a small libr

47、ary with 200 books to improve the reading skills of her students. She hopes to expand her cave class in the future. “My plan is to change my small course to a big school and there must be some assistance from government and /or other organizations so that I can take my services to the next level.”Th

48、e children in this classroom are happy to get an education and they have big dreams for the future. “We study different subjects here, for example, Dari, math, English, drawing and reading, I want to become a doctor in the future and serve my people,” said one of the students.Years of conflict and p

49、overty forced these families to seek refuge (避難所) in these ancient caves with no basic facilities and, previous to Ahmadis initiative (自發(fā)性), no chance of getting an education for the children. After an Afghan service broadcast report about Ahmadis school, Afghanistans Ministry of Education offered t

50、o help her in her efforts.1、What does Ahmadi think vital for the children?AA secure income in the future.BTheir admission to college.CA comfortable living space.DTheir access to education.2、What can we infer from the last paragraph?AAhmadi has been honored.BThe mass media are powerful.CAhmadis plan

51、is promising.DAll Afghans are left homeless.3、Which of the following words best describes Ahmadi?AAdventurous.BSelfless.CInnocent.DAggressive第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項26（30分） Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose wh

52、ich we want to 1 our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or 2 . Its our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in 3 or down in desperation?I believe in the upward look. I choose to 4 the positive and skip right over the negative.An opt

53、imistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); its a(n) 5 . The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. 6 , negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations 7 themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy(預言). Pessimism creates

54、 a dark place where no one wants to live.Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “ How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) 8 question, but I felt fine and to

55、ld him so. “You dont look well,” he replied. This 9 me completely by surprise. A little 10 confidently, I told him that I had 11 felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little 1

56、2 . About a block away, I 13 over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黃疸)? Was every all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(惡心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I 14 some rare disease?On another beau

57、tiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling 15 again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful 16 , and the light reflecting 17 the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had 18 the

58、 way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total 19 change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, Iwas actually feeling sick. That single 20 observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word o
