Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Many people believe sharks are dangerous and will always try to hurt or even kill humans.In fact,94 percent of the world's species are harmless to humans.
A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium(水族馆)in Baltimore，U.S.proves this.Visitors can touch young sharks，see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species swim smoothly around a huge tank.
Most people fail to realize that shark attacks don't happen very often.Humans are more likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark.
And to make this point clear，the museum has set up a special touching pool for children.
There，kids can learn，from an early age，not to fear sharks.They can watch them develop inside the eggs and feel the skins of them.
“People fear what they don't know”，said Nancy Hotchkiss，an organizer of the exhibition，which runs till December.“Sharks have been round for 400 million years and play an important role in the ocean's food chain.We want people to discover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and protection.”
It's shocking that 100 million sharks are killed every year by humans around the world.
A study，published in January in the US magazine Science，found that almost all recorded shark species have fallen by half in the past eight to fifteen years.
Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods，such as shark fin soup.And many others get caught in nets，while fishermen are hunting other fish.More than half of all sharks are smaller than one metre long.
“Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean，”said Dave Schofield，the manager of the aquarium's ocean health program.“The fishermen threw them away like rubbish.”
It is a worrying situation and some areas have taken measures in place to protect these species of fish.
36．The main purpose of the shark exhibition is to ________.
A．show how sharks are born and develop in the
ocean
B．let people know more about sharks and protect them
C．let children learn not to fear sharks from an early age
D．show how shark species have fallen in the past few years
37．In the last paragraph but one，the underlined word “them”refers to ________.
A．small sharks B．fishing boats
C．fishing nets D．fishing methods
38．What does Dave Schofield mean by saying“some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean”？
A．Large sharks cannot be caught by some fishing methods.
B．Only small sharks can be caught by some fishing methods.
C．The ocean is being made cleaner by some fishing methods.
D．Too many sharks are being killed by some fishing methods.
39．It can be inferred from the passage that the writer is ________.
A．surprised to know sharks always hurt people
B．happy to know sharks are harmless to people
C．worried about the present situation of shark species
D．pleased to know the ocean is becoming much cleaner
B
(2013·重庆高考)Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean，an S-shaped body of water covering 33 million square miles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.
“Storm at Sea”，a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind's earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.
When the wind is from the west
All the waves that cannot rest
To the east must thunder on
Where the bright tree of the sun
Is rooted in the ocean's breast.
As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.
It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in mid-ocean, but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics(模仿) nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences, too: unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony，giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat，a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild；always it is strong and striking.
40．Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is________.
A．always energetic
B．lacking in liveliness
C．shaped like a square
D．favored by ancient poets
41．What is the purpose of using the poem “Storm at Sea” in the passage?
A．To describe the movement of the waves.
B．To show the strength of the storm.
C．To represent the power of the ocean.
D．To prove the vastness of the sea.
42．What does the underlined word “symbiotic” mean?
A．Living together.
B．Growing fast.
C．Moving harmoniously.
D．Breathing peacefully.
43．In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to________.
A．a beautiful and poetic place
B．a flesh and blood person
C．a wonderful world
D．a lovely animal
C
Computers are very important to modern life.Many people think that in the future computers will be used in lots of everyday life.It is thought that we won't have to go shopping because we will be able to get most things which are sold in shops on the Internet.There will be no more books because we will be able to get all texts from computers.The Internet will be used to play games，see films and buy food.Most telephone calls will be made by computers，too.
Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating(交际)．Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
Let's look at books，for example.Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper.Instead，we will buy and read books using computers.We will read texts on small pocket computers.The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time.We won't need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved.Computerized(计算机化)books will be used more and more.
Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop？Many people say it is not.It is a pleasure to go in to shops and look at things you want to buy.It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers.Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly.Maybe computers won't change these two habits.
44．In Paragraph 1, it is thought people will use computers for ________.
A．playing games，shopping and making telephone calls
B．making telephone calls，having meals and seeing films

Passage 1
As one of China's most popular and widely known legend，the story of Monkey King is set to return to screens with 3D effects.It may feature many of the same leading actors from the earliest 1986 TV series Journey to the West.According to the producer，which can be got easily in the market，the TV drama，with a total investment of 150 million yuan，will be，aired on Sichuan TV.Almost 90 million yuan has been put into 3D effects with each 45-minute episode containing eight minutes of 3D.“The 3D effects not only cost us a lot of money but also a lot of time.”director Kan WeiPing said.“We had to put off its broadcasting time，which was set at first this summer.”
Passage 2
The Solar Roadway is an intelligent road that provides clean renewable energy using power from the sun，while providing safer driving conditions along with power.American inventors of the Solar Road said that it will power itself，and reduce the country's carbon marks.Many panels are fixed on the Solar Road.The top of the Solar Road panels is made of glass and the inventors are working together with top glass researchers to develop super strong glass that would offer vehicles pulling power they need.The Solar Roadway creates and carries clean renewable electricity and，therefore，electric vehicles can be recharged at any rest stop，or at any business that uses solar road panels in their parking lots.Such parking lots will be safer at night with the light provided by LED within the road panels.The inventors say their solar roadway has many applications and advantages from main roads to driveways，parking lots，bike paths and runways.

When you start your preparation late，it would give you two results.Firstly，it would increase your stress as you would have to complete so many things at a very short span of time.Secondly，owing to limited time，you would not be able to carry on with a healthy preparation and you would end up securing less marks in the examination.So，if you have registered for the Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT)，make sure that you start preparing ahead of time，so that you have enough time to correct your mistakes and at the same time，you can revise all the PCAT chapters well.
When you plan for an early start，make sure that you stick to your decision.You should study and control your mind in such a way that you continue with your study，irrespective of(不考虑)your other works.Turn off your computer，television or mobile phone，when you sit to study.This would enable you to concentrate on your PCAT study and make your study session a stress-free one.Do not delay.We all know“Tomorrow never comes！”So，do not spend your time dilly-dallying.Instead，finish your work within time.
An early preparation would ensure that you give time to each of your subjects and improve your flaws.At the same time，you would get more time to practice PCAT sample papers.The more you practice，you would get time to correct your mistakes.Moreover，regular practice would enable you to know the pattern of the questions that you are going to encounter in your examination.While studying or practicing your PCAT papers，if you do not understand anything，make sure that you take help from the experts.
In the end，make sure that you make a timetable of revision along with your study timetable.Revision would enable you to grasp your chapters and regain all that you have studied in your memory.
52．If you want to gain a good mark in PCAT，you'd better________.
A．have a good revision ahead of time
B．avoid any chances of making mistakes
C．learn something from your computer

53．What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A．PCAT is very easy if you concentrate on it.
B．If you work hard，you'll succeed some day.
C．You can only enjoy yourself in your spare time.
D．You should try to revise all the lessons as you have planned.
54．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that________.
A．study timetable and revision timetable are both important
B．you should pay more attention to your revision than study
C．study timetable is more important than revision timetable
D．revision is just to regain what you have learned
55．You can get over some difficulties and do better in your exam by ________.
A．meeting your close friends

Ⅳ.任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
The earth's ocean can reach depths of up to 11,000 metres.That is deep enough to cover Mount Qomolangma！Marine(海洋的)scientists divide the oceans into five zones.Each zone is different mainly as a result of how much sunlight reaches it.Most of the life in the ocean can be found in the first zone，which begins at the surface and goes down to about 200 metres.Because there is sunlight at this level，plants are able to grow.
Marine animals such as dolphins，sharks，sea turtles and sea lions，and of course a variety of fish，live in the sunlight part of the ocean.It is difficult to hide from other animals in the area，but many species have adapted by becoming dark on the top and light on the bottom.This makes it hard to see them against the dark water below and the blue sky above.
The second starts at 200 metres and goes down to about 1,000 metres.Some sunlight can reach this level，but it is not enough for plants to grow.Because this zone is relatively dark，many of the creatures that live here are able to make light with their body.The light from these animals makes the water look like a sky with moving stars in it.
The third zone is dark.This place，about 3,000 metres deep，may not seem a likely habitat(栖息地)，but there are more creatures here than one might think.Most of the animals that live here are black or red because of the lack of light.At this depth，a slow shower of what looks like snow is falling.This phenomenon，called“marine snow”，is actually nutrients falling towards the bottom of the ocean.It is source of food for the creatures that live in the deep.
Below 4,000 metres，the temperature is near freezing and there is no light at all.In fact，the zone is so dark and empty that scientists named this zone after the Greek word for “no bottom”．There is not much life to be found in this cold and unpleasant part.But some creatures manage to survive here despite the high water pressure.
The very deepest part of the ocean is 2,000 metres further down.At this depth，the water pressure is extremely high and life is very difficult for the few creatures that live here.Compared to the other zones，this one has very little life.Since there is no light here，some animals don't have eyes.When scientists explored the very deepest parts of the ocean，they did not expect to find any life at all.It turned out that there are creatures as far down as 10,000 metres.They usually survive by living close to deep sea vents，“chimneys” that sent out gases from within the earth.

综合检测(一)
1．B 句意：每个人都说这是一次完美的营救，没有人知道比这次更好的营救行动了。根据句意可知空白处应该用比较级，故排除C、D两项；“不定冠词＋形容词比较级”表示“更……的一个”，符合题意。
2．B 句意：——这确实是一个热闹的聚会。这里的气氛真好，是吧？——是的，确实是。主人知道如何举办一个聚会。由题干中的关键信息“主人知道如何举办一个聚会”可知下句说话人赞同上句说话人所说的话，故选“Yes，indeed”。Don't worry.意为“别担心”；No，there isn't.意为“不，不是”；It all depends.意为“看情况而定”，均不符合句意。
3．B 句意：我说服他打消中断实验的想法。persuade sb.out of doing sth.就等于persuade sb.not to do sth.意为“说服某人不做某事”。
4．C regular表示“规律的”。normal表示“正常的”；usual表示“经常的”；common表示“常见的”。
5．A 句意：张家界是如此有吸引力以至于有机会时我还会去那里。patient有耐心的；attractive有吸引力的；energetic精力充沛的；independent独立的。
6．B “倍数＋the weight(size，width，length，etc.)＋of”是倍数的表达方式之一；若D项中heavier改为heavy也对。
7．A 句意：一些超市为了吸引更多消费者，经常在周末低价销售商品。at a discount固定搭配，表示“以折扣价出售”；bargain作名词时指“合同，廉价物品”。
8．A 本题考查几个形容词或副词原级和比较级的用法。句意：托尼几乎不会煮鸡蛋，更不用说做晚餐了。still less是一个固定结构，表示“更不用说，更别提”，因此选A。这里前后是比较的意思，因此原级形式的B和C项不符合语境和语法规则；D项表示“更多”，与此处表达的意义不符。
9．D 从句意可知，此处表示对可能发生的事情的假设，因此选择if so“如果这样的话”，so代替前面句子中提到的情况。
10．D 在此句中， point在后面的定语从句中作状语，表示程度，当先行词是表程度状况的词，如case，point，situation等时，关系副词常用where。另外，need表需要讲时，后面用动名词的主动形式表示被动意思。
11．D 该题考查代词的用法。关系代词as用来引导定语从句，置于句首，有“正如，如同”的意思。
12．A have no problem with...表示“……没有问题”；have no problem in doing sth.表示“做某事没有问题”，其中in可以省略。
13．A 句意：他把银杯颁给获胜者。present sth.to sb.＝present sb.with sth.向某人颁发/赠送/展示某物。pretend假装，不存在C、D两种结构。
14．A 考查with复合结构。their children与play之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，因此用动词-ing形式短语作宾补。句意：“妈妈们坐在长凳上闲聊，孩子们在旁边玩耍。”
15．C 句意：你们当中无论哪一个打破窗户都必须赔偿。此处指从“you”这一范围中作出选择，故选C项，表示“无论哪一个”。
16．C 放学回家后从下句grabbed something from __17__ to eat可知“饿”。又困又饿，才把东西扔到沙发上。
17．B 吃的东西当然会从厨房里拿。
18．C 我想看电视，但是我知道我的家庭作业会占用我一整个晚上的时间。
19．B 根据下文的I ran down to greet my mom....I ran back upstairs可知是作者上了楼。
20．D 开始做作业了，前文提到困，所以这里是想驱除困意，和困意作斗争。
21．A 根据前面的stressed，可知作者这时候有压力，也很烦躁。
22．D 根据其宾语the sound of the front door opening，只能是听见开门的声音。
23．B 妈妈回来了，唱着歌，虽然有点跑调，我还是很兴奋。
24．C 作者下楼迎接妈妈，会和妈妈拥抱。
25．D 妈妈回来的时候哼着歌，自然是她的精神、活力感染了我。
26．A 妈妈的做法使我又能重新面对压力了。
27．C 我有时候真想知道妈妈为什么总是能下班回来后那么积极。由下文的“positive attitude”可知答案。

30．B 根据描述，妈妈上下班都坐公交车。
31．D 和妈妈相比，我不应该是总抱怨的那个人。

33．C 我欣赏妈妈虽然有很多困难，但是她总是以积极的态度对待生活，以一颗快乐的心生活。
34．B
35．C 看到妈妈开心，我也感觉好了。
36．B 推理判断题。从文章的第二段和第四段可以推出答案。
37．A 词义推断题。从倒数第三段的“More than half of all sharks are smaller than one metre long.”和倒数第二段的“Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean.”said Dave Schofield，the manager of the aquarium's ocean health program.“The fishermen threw them away like rubbish.”可以得知答案。
38．D 推理判断题。从后三段可以看出：捕杀鲨鱼的人们使用的猎捕方法，使得无论大小的猎物他们都能捕获出，这种情况让人担忧。
39．C 推理判断题。从短文最后一段“It is a worrying situation and some areas have taken measures in place to protect these species of fish.”可以推测出答案。
语篇解读：本文为一篇夹叙夹议文。表达了对大西洋的赞美。大西洋一直是很活跃的，它的力量强大得无可比拟，它狂野不羁。
40．A 细节理解题。第一段最后两句话谈到大西洋具有丰富的海洋活跃分子，不像真正的内陆海一样平静，vitality和energetic表达的意思相近，故答案为A项。
41．C 意图判断题。根据倒数第二段最后两句“It is an ocean...whistling.”可推知本文选用“Storm at Sea”这首诗的目的是说明大西洋力量的强大，它会制造各种各样的噪音——永远轰鸣、翻滚、冲击、呼啸，所以选择C项。
42．A 词义猜测题。“It is filled with symbiotic existences...”之后的内容是对这一句的解释。根据画线单词上文中的a living creature和下文中的mix，harmony可知，symbiotic意为“混合的，共生的”，指的是“那些难以想象的大量的生物，无论大小，都混合在一起共生”。
43．B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的heartbeat“心跳”，psychology“心理”，personalities“个性，品质”可推知作者把大西洋比作了一个有血有肉的人，故答案为B项。
44．A 细节理解题。第一段提到了人们未来会在网上购物、玩游戏、看电影，大部分手机也会由电脑制成。
45．B 细节理解题。根据文章第三段，关于我们为什么用计算机化的书籍的原因，除了B项价格问题没有提到之外，其余三项都提及了。具体信息源为以下两句话：“Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper...The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time.We won't need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved.”
46．C 段落大意题。文章第四段从两个方面说了电脑是否会改变我们的习惯。比如：“Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop？...It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers.”得出的最后结论是：Maybe computers won't change these two habits.
47．B 概括题目题。本文介绍了电脑对于人们的未来日常生活十分重要，并举了几个可能发生的情况。但是最后得出了结论：Maybe computers won't change these two habits.所以B项为最佳题目。
48．B 主旨大意题。第一篇短文主要讲述电视剧《西游记》将以3D的形式重返电视荧屏。因此我们可以看到3D版的《美猴王》。故答案为B项。
49．C 细节判断题。由第一篇短文中的最后一句话可推知答案。其他三项均不符合文意。
50．A 推理判断题。第二篇短文简介了“the Solar Roadway” 这种新型、环保、高科技公路的概念、构成及与传统概念公路相比较的优势。故可推知作者认为其发展前景应该很光明。

【参考范文】
At the beginning of the new term，many parents ask their children to go to cram school.They say it can help them remember what they learn in class better.If their children are not good at some subjects，they should spend more time on it and maybe going to the cram school is the best choice.Some parents also think learning more knowledge is good for their children.
However students have their own ideas.Staying at home，they will have more time to work at their lessons.They can arrange time more freely.What's worse，spending too much time having classes may make them get tired and they can't study efficiently.
I'm on the side of the students.We don't need cram school.What we need to do is listening carefully to our teachers in class and doing more exercises of the subjects that we are not good at.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
In the old days，divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk because they hoped to find gold and jewels.Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships，but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves，or parts of them.The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years，it may be worth a great deal.
The“Andrea Doria”is a valuable ship lying on the seabed.It is an Italian passenger ship which sank in 1956 after a collision with a Swedish ship.The ship itself was worth at least $ 30,000,000 and in addition it was carrying over $4,800,000 and many other valuable things.There is one silver object which is worth over $1,200,000.But the ship is lying in deep water which is very dark and cold.As strong current also sweeps past the ship，so far divers have been unsuccessful.
1．The underlined word “current” in the second paragraph means ________.
A．lots of money B．air
C．sea D．stream of water
2．Divers try to bring up metal from sunken ships because ________.
A．metal has been in the sea for a long time
B．some kinds of metal are worth a lot of money today
C．metal becomes better after it has been in the sea
D．it is easy to bring up metal
3．The “Andrea Doria”sank because ________.
A．it hit an Italian ship
B．it hit a Swedish ship

C．it sank in a collision
D．the ship and the things in it are very valuable
B
How do you know if the perfect house you have found is in the perfect neighbourhood？When driving by on a sunny Sunday afternoon，you cannot see the true nature of the area.All too often people will fall in love with a house without taking the nearby area into consideration.This can lead to serious problems and cause you to regret the decision to buy.
Before buying a house it is wise to do some research on the area it is located in.Do you know what the crime rate is for the area？How are the schools？What is the average age of your neighbours？Is there a“party house”next door？Does the quiet street turn into a busy shortcut(近路)during the rush hour？Is there a known drug house？These things should all be considered before a final decision is made.
Making several visits to the house at various times and on different days can help you know a lot about the area.Sit in front of the house with your windows rolled down and just listen to the activity，take a walk around the block and observe the sights，sounds，and smells.Be sure to go to judge how loud things can get on a weekend evening.
You will also need to find out if the neighbourhood is improving or on the decline(下降)．Are stores and services closing or have new businesses been opening up？These are things that will affect the resale value of your house.Also check with local governments to discover if any developments are planned for the area.
The best advice is not to let your heart rule your head.Do your homework，and make sure your dream house is in your dream neighbourhood.
5．According to the first paragraph，why do people regret buying their house?
A．The house cost them too much money.
B．The quality of their house is not good.
C．The neighbours are hard to get along with.
D．The neighbourhood is not satisfying.
6．Before buying a house you should consider the following EXCEPT________.
A．the safety of the neighbourhood
B．the conditions of the schools nearby
C．the area of the neighbourhood
D．the development of the neighbourhood
7．The underlined word“various”in Paragraph 3 most probably means________.
A．good B．different
C．difficult D．quiet
8．What's the main purpose of the passage?
A．To show us what the author's dream house is like.
B．To give us some tips on choosing the dream neighbourhood.
C．To tell us how to do some research on the house
D．To teach us how to make money by buying and selling houses.

One type of fish is named the salmon(大马哈鱼)．There are many different kinds of salmon，but almost all of them mate(交配) in a very strange way.They are born in small，fresh water rivers.They live in the river for a year，and then swim downstream to a bigger river and eventually to the ocean.In the salt water，they eat constantly and grow very quickly.While they live in the ocean，salmon are silver colored.
After several years at sea，the salmon grow very long and heavy.Then，as_if_by_magic(魔法)，they all begin to swim home.Each salmon somehow remembers where it was born and swims to the very same area in the small river.
It is a long，difficult journey home.Once the salmon enter fresh water，they stop eating.They also change colors.Some salmon turn red，others brown and grey，and some turn pink.Some salmon grow a large bulge on their back，called a hump.These salmon fight to swim upstream against the current(水流) of sometimes very powerful rivers.They jump over waterfalls and have to avoid bears，birds，and fishermen.
Finally，the salmon that survive mate in the same river in which they were born.Then，after all that work，they die！These salmon still play an important role.Their dead bodies help to provide nutrition to the animals that live in and around the river.When their eggs hatch，the cycle will start again.

2．D 细节理解题。根据第三段前半部分可知前三项都是大马哈鱼历经艰辛重新回到淡水后的变化，第四项在本段中没有信息支持。
3．A 推理判断题。第三段第二句提到大马哈鱼进入淡水后就停止进食，本段后半部分则是它们在回家途中需要逆流而上，而且还要跳过瀑布，由此可推测它们在海洋中大量吃东西的原因是为以后返回出生地积聚能量。
4．C 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知幸存下来的大马哈鱼在同一条河中交配，它们死后的尸体又为河中以及周围的动物提供营养，所以选择C项。前两项只是原因之一；最后一项是它们的后代的行为。

Knut lived in Berlin's zoo.He was four and raised by zookeepers since a cub(幼崽)after his mother rejected(摒弃)him.
Now reports say the attention-loving polar bear was found dead in a pool in his cage at the Zoologischer Garten Berlin Saturday，with no immediate cause of death announced.
“This is awful，”said Berlin's mayor Klaus Wowereit，according to the Sydney Herald.“We had all taken him to our hearts.He was the star of the Berlin Zoo.”
Most reports say Knut was alone when he died，as visitors watched him suddenly fall into the water.The known news site TMZ.com carried news of his death and says People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' German branch had previously complained that Knut suffered a lot from his mother and other bears.
Knut was very famous to many people，only because he seemed to love the limelight(出风头)．After his first performance at the popular zoo，he became its star attraction，raising much income for the zoo and producing toys，DVDs and more.He was not diagnosed as being ill at the time，reports say.An investigation(调查)into the cause of his death is underway.
To everyone's surprise，his beloved keeper，Thomas Doerflein，also died at an early age.Doerflein died at 44 in 2008 in his apartment after he had fed the cub and slept by its side，but later was told no longer to play or wrestle with Knut.At that time Knut was becoming an adult polar bear and considered too dangerous to interact with closely.Doerflein reportedly suffered a heart attack.Knut acted unhappily after his friend's death.
