And writer Liel Leibovitz says the students are following an example

11、 that began in the eighteen seventies.Mr. Leibovitz and writer Matthew Miller joined forces to tell the story of the students in their book, “Fortunate Sons.” The book says China sent one hundred and twenty boys from 1872 to 1875 to America to learn about developments that could help modernize their

12、 country.Mr. Leibovitz got the idea for the book about the boys a few years ago when he was traveling with his wife in China.Mr. Leibovitz learned that Qing government sent a whole delegation (代表團) of boys to learn the ways of the West. The goal was for them to return to China and help their country

13、.The book says the boys received their American training in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. It must have been a very good education. Mr. Leibovitz says the first prime minister of the Chinese Republic completed this program. And so did the first engineer to build a large-scale r

14、ailroad without foreign help. The same was true of the fathers of Chinese education, diplomacy and the Navy.The book-writers had only to open some boxes containing the writings of these men to learn about them. Their notebooks, Journals, letters and postcards were in English. Mr. Leibovitz said he w

15、as lucky to have so much information from events that took place long ago.The students returned to China after about nine years. They no longer spoke Mandarin (國語) well enough to answer questions. Police welcomed them home by putting them in jail. The young men were released after about a week. But

16、they were given low-level jobs.Mr Leibovitz says it took about ten years for them to rise to higher positions. He said their story continues today with large numbers of Chinese studying in the United States.1、How many exchange children did Qing government send to America?A1872.B1875.C120.D210.2、Qing

17、 government sent the boys to America because it .Awanted them to help their countryBlost the warCexpected them to destroy the culture of the WestDwanted the Western to help the boys3、Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AMany thousands of Chinese are studying at schools in Ame

19、the world, have changed from wet to dry a about every 20,000 years.But previous evidence has suggested the Sahara did not always experience such extreme heat and dry conditions. At times, the Sahara Ranged to a very wet climate. This permitted plants and animals to develop and grow and led to the cr

20、eation of human settlements. Now, they have discovered more evidence, which, the lead researcher David Mc Gee says, supports the idea that the Saharas climate kept changing between wet and dry about every 20,000,years.McGee reported these climate changes were mainly driven by changes in the Earths(地

21、軸)as the planet travels round the sun .This process affects the amount of sunlight between seasons. Every 20,000 years the Earth receives more strong summer sunlight. When the Earths axis changes again, the amount of sunlight is reduced. This season change happened continuously every 20,000 years. T

22、he other part of the season produced rainy conditions, resulting in a wetter, greener, plant-rich environment. When the rainy activity weakens, the climate becomes hot and dry, like the Sahara remains today.The scientists based their research on dust collected from ocean sediment(沉積物)in the Atlantic

23、 Ocean bottom off the coast of West Africa. The dust contained layers (層)of ancient sediment built up over millions of years. Each layer could contain traces of Saharan dust as well as the remains of life forms. This information was used to assess over what time period the dust had built up. This le

24、d to the overall finding that the Saharan changes from wet to dry climates happened every 20,000 years.David McGee said that today we only see the Sahara Desert as an extremely deserted and “inhospitable” place. The new study suggests that the areas climate has changes between grasslands and a much

25、wetter environment, and back to dry climates, even over the last quarter million years. McGee says he thinks the latest research can be valuable in studying the Saharas history as it relates to human settlement.1、What does the new study find about the Sahara Desert?AIt is one of the hottest, driest

26、and most deserted areas in Africa.BIt always experiences extreme conditions because of its position.CIts climate changes between wet and dry about every 20,000 years.DIts environmental conditions stop plants and animals from surviving.2、What is the direct reason for Saharas climate changes?ARainy ac

27、tivity.BSolar radiation.CHuman activity.DGlobal environment.3、How did the researchers acquire the evidence?ABy analyzing ocean life.BBy studying Saharas history.CBy collecting dust on the coast.DBy examining mean sediment.4、What does the underlined word “inhospitable” probably mean?AUnsuitable to li

28、ve.BInsignificant lo study.CUnable to explore.DImpossible to change.23（8分） About six months ago, I was working in a job where I sat at a computer in an office for 50 or so hours each week. My best friend, Dusty, also sat in an office at a computer all day. We often talked about what a waste it seeme

29、d to be, spending our time inside in front of a computer all day long. I ended up leaving my job, and so did Dusty. Neither one of us are sitting in an office all day. Last week, Dusty came to my home and declared, “Im going to travel.”O(jiān)f course, traveling is exciting. Its getting to experience new

30、things, getting to be a slightly different version of ourselves, but I think the point is more about the mindset(心態(tài)) that it allows for than the actual reality that comes with it. Waking up every day with a sense of excitement for the unknown. Approaching each interaction during the day with a sense

31、 of wonder. Not thinking about yesterday or tomorrow, and just about whatevers right in front you.However, the thing is, we dont need to be in transit to be able to approach our days this way. It is possible for me to be living my normal life and be excited for the unknown of the day. I meet new peo

32、ple and do new things every day. Yes, they might be in Santa Monica, a few blocks from my apartment, but whats the difference between a new person here and new person in Australia?I read an Alan Watts quote recently, and it goes as follows:“If I ask you what you did, saw, heard, smelled, touched and

33、 tasted yesterday, I am likely to get nothing more than the thin, sketchy outline of the few things that you noticed, and of those only what you thought worth remembering. But suppose you could answer, It would take me forever to tell you, and I am much too interested in whats happening now. ”O(jiān)ne ge

34、neration seems to be eager to expand our horizons(視野). But I agree with Alan Watts. There is a lot of opportunity for horizon-expansion wherever we happen to be. I think Ill wake up tomorrow, walk down the street, and put on my adventurers cap.1、According to the text, the author quit his job mainly

35、because _.Ait didnt pay very wellBDusty advised him to do soChe wanted to spend some time travelingDhe didnt want to stay inside all day long2、Whats the second paragraph mainly about?AWhat makes traveling so attractive.BWhat is most important when traveling.CHow to find a new version of ourselves.DH

36、ow to spend an unforgettable holiday.3、The underlined words “in transit” in the third paragraph probably mean _.Amoving aroundBworking hardCfilled with curiosityDfull of enthusiasm4、Whats the best title for the text?AAn exciting but normal lifeBAdventures in our own backyardCGo to travel and expand

37、your horizonDGet outside and explore for the unknown24（8分）What do you do if your nation has a severe water shortage and happens to be located in a desert? If you have the resources, you turn to technology, which is what a company in the oil-rich United Arab Emirates (阿聯(lián)酋) (UAE for short) is planning

38、 to do. The country, which gets less than four inches of rain per year, could solve its issue with water shortage by dragging icebergs from Antarctica to its shores. The first such attempt will begin in 2018.Once the iceberg is at UAE shores, the ice above the waterline would be cut off and crushed

39、into drinking water, which would then be stored in large water tanks. The iceberg would also have a broader impact, says Abdullah Mohammad Sulaiman Al Shehi:“Cold air out from an iceberg close to the shore of the Arabian Sea would cause rainstorms across the Arabian Gulf and the southern region of t

40、he Arabian Peninsula all year round. As the rising air expands, cools and condenses (冷凝) due to the decrease in air pressure, water vapor (水蒸氣) is collected in the clouds, which becomes heavy and falls as rain.” More icebergs will bring more water vapor and clouds, creating a profound (巨大的)effect on

41、 the regional climate over a decade, turning the desert into “green meadows(草地)”. The melting iceberg would also add fresh water to the Arabian sea, returning biodiversity. There would also be a boost(興旺) for tourism from all the people interested in looking at the icebergs. The Emirates Iceberg Pro

42、ject comes from a group of efforts by NABL called “Filling the Empty Quarter”. The project aims to dramatically influence the deserts of the “Empty Quarter”, the planets largest sand desert. The region is also the richest oil-producing area in the world, including parts of Saudi Arabia, Oman, UAE an

43、d Yemen.1、What is the UAE planning to do according to the text?ATo collect fresh sea water from Antarctica.BTo drag icebergs from Antarctica to the country.CTo make icebergs from Antarctica melt.DTo get 20 billion gallons of fresh water from icebergs.2、What Al Shehi said reflects the effect of icebe

44、rgs on_.Athe weather Bthe industryCthe biodiversity Dthe tourism3、According to the text, the deserts of the “Empty Quarter” are_.Aturning into green meadowsBthe resource of salt in the Arabian seaCthe empty area without populationDabundant in oil as a matter of fact4、According to the text, icebergs

45、to be dragged to UAE shores will _.Abring water vapor and sandBadd salt water to the Arabian seaCbecome “green meadows”Dattract people interested in looking at the icebergs25（10分） On Christmas Day, 2003, a woman named Nancy Sue Brown took her daughter and grandchildren to see a movie at an AMC theat

46、er. When the movie was over, the crowd made for the exits. A theater employee had just finished mopping the hallway and dutifully placed the “wet floor” sign in the slippery area. No one slipped due to the wet conditions, but someone did manage to knock over the sign. And by the time Ms. Brown got t

47、o the area, the sign was lying on the floor. And shortly thereafter, so was she. Her foot got caught in the sign, in a bad way, and she fell. Unfortunately Ms. Brown had undergone a back operation, and the fall caused more damage than it otherwise would have. So she and her husband sued (提起訴訟).AMC a

48、rgued that the entire point of the “wet floor” sign above was to warn of danger, and therefore, courts should encourage the use by not allowing Browns case to proceed(繼續(xù)進行). AMC referred to a case about a December, 1998 incident, where a “wet floor” sign, not in use, fell to the floor causing anothe

49、r trip-and-fall. In that case, Georgias Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the store, but didnt go so far as to say that “wet floor signs couldnt give rise to legal liability (責(zé)任) in trip-and-fall accidents. In the Brown case, the Supreme Court therefore rejected AMCs argument that the former case a

50、pplied.But the Browns argued something surprising that the “wet floor” sign was, itself, dangerous, because “using this type of sign in areas passed by lots of customers creates an unreasonable risk of foreseeable harm to the public in the form of tripping hazards(危險).” Thats rightthe safety sign, u

51、sed in the way it was designed, was itself dangerous. The court thankfully didnt accept that argument, at least not entirely. But it did conclude that Browns case could continue to a jury(陪審團) “a merchants selection and use of equipment designed to warn customers of one danger that have the potentia

52、l to expose them to a different one.”1、According to the text, Ms. Brown _.Aslipped on the wet floorBtripped over a warning signCknocked over a warning signDwas knocked down by the crowd2、AMC mentioned the 1998 case in order to _.Aaccept its legal liability for Ms. Browns lossBprove MS. Brown had som

53、e physical problemsCstress that it had no legal liability for the accidentDprove other customers were responsible for the accident3、What can we learn about the Brown case from the last paragraph?AIt would be judged by jury.BIt would not be allowed to proceed.CThe court would rule in favor of AMCDThe

54、 court accepted all the arguments of the Browns.4、The underlined word “one” in the last paragraph refers to “_”.AdangerBcustomerCbusiness ownerDequipment in public places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）On June 23, 1970. I had just left the Army aft

55、er completing my one-year duty in Vietnam. I was on 1 returning home in Texas. I had been warned about the 2 of our fellow countrymen. There was no 3 welcome for us when we came home from that unpopular war.I sat, in uniform, in a window seat, 4 eye contact with my fellow passengers. NO one was sitt

56、ing next to me, which added to my 5 . A little girl suddenly appeared in the passage. She 6 and, without saying a word, 7 handed me a magazine. I accepted her 8 , her quiet “welcome home.” All I could say was, “Thank you.” Her small gesture of 9 was the first I had experienced in a long time.I alway

57、s believe in the connection between 10 when they reach out to one another.That girl 11 has no memory of what happened years ago. She might have been told to do that by her mother. It doesnt matter 12 she gave me the magazine. The 13 thing is that she did.Since then, I have followed her example and t

58、ried. in different ways for different people, to 14 for them. Like me on that plane ride long ago, they will 15 know why a stranger gave a hand. But I absolutely know that my 16 since then are all because of that little girl. Her kindness of offering a magazine to a 17 , scared and lonely soldier ha

59、s been 18 throughout my life. I have to believe that my small 19 have the same effect on others. And to that little girl, now a 20 , I would like to say again: thank you.1、Abus Btrain Cplane Dboat2、Astories Bdifficulties Cunfriendliness Denthusiasm3、Ahometown Bschool Ccold Dimmediate4、Aseeking Bnoti
