Ⅱ.阅读(共两节，满分50分)
第一节 阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
In a world with limite ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d land，water and other natural resources(资源)，the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise.Actually，the past decade has seen more and more forests disappearing and the globe becoming increasingly warm.People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed，and that we must be able to develop in sustainable(可持续的) ways.That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products.In other words，we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.
Today，sustain ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )able development is a popular trend in many countries.According to a recent study，the global market for low－carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decade.China，for example，has set its mind on leading that market，hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution.It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy，and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high－speed trains.In addition，we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil(棕榈油)，which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest.In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.
Governments ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )can fully develop the potential of these new markets.First，they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions(排放)and targets for saving and reusing energy.Besides，stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally，governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction，and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.
The major challenge ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of a growing population within the limits of this single planet.That is no small task，but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.
26．The traditional ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that________．
A．it makes the world warmer
B．it consumes natural resources
C．it brings severe damage to forests
D．it makes growth hard to continue
27．What can we infer from Paragraph 2
A．China lacks wind and solar energy.
B．China is the leader of the low－carbon market.
C．High－speed trains are a low－carbon development.
D．Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.
28．To fully develop the low－carbon markets，government can________．
A．cut public expenses
B．forbid carbon emission
C．develop public resources
D．encourage energy conservation
29．We can learn f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rom the last paragraph that businesses have many chances to________．www.21-cn-jy.com
A．develop sustainable products
B．explore new natural resources
C．make full use of natural resources
D．deal with the major challenge
30．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To introduce a new business model.
B．To compare two business models.
C．To predict a change of the global market.
D．To advocate sustainable development.
B
I have to say I usu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ally want to throw up when I hear someone say each of us has a purpose because I realize that as far as most people are concerned it is the cliche (陈词滥调). I do believe it is true that as humans we all feel that we must be here for a purpose, but I also know that most of us have no idea what that purpose is.
For most people th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e problem is that they don't believe that they have a passion. I know you hear it all the time：“find your passion”. The key step is hard to make if someone is so numb，that they don't know what their passion could possibly be. Somehow we seem to hang onto our failures and limits more than we do our success，which is just human nature. Stop and think about the things that you have always done well and loved to do，which will help you find your passion.
We should know it's ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) easy to determine our purpose, but your purpose must be combined with your passion. For example, I have been involved in weight lifting and fitness since I was in my twenties and have a great deal of self－taught knowledge about bodybuilding. All I had to do was take an exam from a certifying organization to gain my certification and be a fitness trainer which is my purpose. I had a purpose and passion so I made it at last.
Generally, your ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) purpose must be in the area that you love, enjoy and are possionate (狂热的，热诚的) about and that is why you have chosen to spend time and energy to realize it. Your success will always be greater when you are working in an area that you are passionate about.
31．The author believes that________．
A．each of us has a purpose
B．few people have a purpose
C．most of us have a purpose
D．all of us need a purpose
32．Which of the fol ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lowing is the most important to you according to the author
A．Finding your passion.
B．Hanging onto your success.
C．Giving up your failures.
D．Setting up your purpose.
33．Many people can't get rid of their failures because________．
A．they have become very numb
B．they don't know what success is
C．it's difficult to change their nature
D．many things limit their actions
34．The author uses hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s own example in Paragraph 3 to show that________．
A．being a fitness trainer is promising
B．purpose and passion can lead to success
C．it's possible for you to find a purpose
D．all successful people have a purpose
35．You should choose your purpose in the area where________．
A．you have expert knowledge，interest and passion
B．you have to work hard to make a living
C．you have interest and less special knowledge
D．you enjoy your work and have few skills

As middle school students, firstly in order to save electricity, we should use electric items less often if possible, and turn them off if not using them. Secondly, it's beneficial to us and the environment if we choose to walk or ride a bike when going out. Besides, it's quite helpful to persuade our parents to buy products which use less energy. Finally but most importantly, we should plant as many trees as possible, and take good care of the plants around us. I strongly believe that individuals together can make a difference, so let's start to take actions and make the earth a better place to live on.

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
Although our ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )reliance on fossil fuels(化石燃料) has created global warming, we now have the opportunity to begin a_transformation towards a clean energy economy—one that is supported by highly efficient industries, fueled by clean, renewable resources, like wind, solar and geothermal (地热的) energy, and based on modern smart transportation planning.
A clean energy econ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )omy is a win for American jobs. Studies by leading research institutions have shown that if we invest in clean energy over fossil fuels, we will create more American jobs. A report released by the United Steelworkers and the Sierra Club, for example, found that thanks to the growth of wind energy, about 5，200 manufacturing jobs could be created in Iowa alone over the next decade. Additional studies have found that thousands more jobs could be created in other states that have suffered industry job losses and that welcome the opportunity to train workers for the new energy economy.
But, in order to full ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y transit to a clean energy economy，we need our elected officials to take action. Without policies from the government, the private field may continue to invest in old－fashioned, polluting technologies. More than 70 coal plants without technology to capture carbon pollution are now being considered. If these projects go ahead, this will be billions of dollars invested in technology that is outdated and not “clean coal”. We need effective policies to push growing clean energy industries forward.
Each of us can play a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) role in bringing about this much－needed transition. Tell your business and elected leaders that the next generation deserves to grow up in a world powered by clean energy. Tell your mayor that you want city planning that encourages more efficient new buildings and sidewalks and bike paths that make it easy to walk or ride a bike. Tell your state and national officials to invest in energy grids (电力网) that can deliver renewable energy to everyone. Tell your company that instead of old－style coal power you want to buy solar, wind, or geothermal energy. Tell your elected officials that you want national policies that encourage investors to make long－term commitments to clean energy.
1．The underlined pa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rt “a transformation” in Paragraph 1 refers to “________”．
A．a change from fossil fuels to clean energy
B．a choice for fossil fuels
C．a chance of developing modern industries
D．a choice for global warming
2．According to Paragraph 2, a clean energy economy________．
A．has helped develop more wind energy
B．is quite beneficial to ordinary people
C．has developed fast in most states of the US
D．is valued by the governments around the world

A．Investments in clean energy.
B．Coal plants without advanced technology.
C．Technology for capturing carbon pollution.
D．Policies on the good use of clean energy.
4．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．Everyone can contribute to the clean energy.
B．Citizens have the right to talk to the mayor.
C．Elected leaders should be responsible for the next generation.
D．More investments should be put into energy grids.www.21-cn-jy.com

(2013·佛山高二检测) ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Beijing had its biggest snowfall since 1951.Britain is suffering through its longest cold snap(寒潮)since 1981.And freezing weather is hitting the Deep South，including Florida's orange groves and beaches.
Whatever happened to global warming
Such weather do ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )esn't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases.But experts say the cold snap doesn't contradict global warming at all—it's just a temporary phenomenon in the long－term heating trend.“It's part of natural variability，”said Gerald Meehl，a senior scientist.With global warming，he said，“we'll still have record cold temperatures.We'll just have fewer of them.”2·1·c·n·j·y
Scientists s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ay man－made climate change does have the potential to cause more frequent and more severe weather extremes.But experts did not connect the current cold snap to climate change.2-1-c-n-j-y
So what is going on
“We basically have see ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n just a big outbreak of Arctic air over populated areas of the Northern Hemisphere”，Arndt said.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
In the atmospher ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e，large rivers of air travel roughly west to east around the globe between the Arctic and the tropics.This air flow acts like a fence to keep Arctic air restricted.But recently，this air flow has become bent into a zigzag(之字形)pattern，wandering north and south.If you live in a place where it brings air up from the south，you get warm weather.In fact，record highs were reported this week in Washington state and Alaska.【出处：21教育名师】
But in the eastern ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )United States，like some other unlucky parts of the globe，Arctic air is coming from the north.And that's how you get a temperature of 3 degrees in Beijing，a reading of minus－42 in mainland Norway，and 18 inches of snow in parts of Britain.The zigzag pattern arises naturally from time to time，but it is not clear why it's so strong right now.【版权所有：21教育】

Climate change wil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l force exhausted birds migrating to Europe from Africa to travel further with possibly disastrous consequences，according to a study.
The annual voyage o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f some species，which fly north in search of food and suitable habitats，could increase by as much as 400 kilometers(250 miles)，the research found.“Marathon migrations for some birds are set to become even longer，”said Stephen Willis, a professor at Durham University in Britain and the main architect of the study.“This is bad news for birds like the Whitethroat，a common farmland bird.The added distance is a considerable threat.As temperatures rise and habitats change，birds will face their biggest challenge since the Pleistocene era(更新世：始于距今180万年)，which ended 11，000 years ago，”he said in a statement.
Some 500 million ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) birds migrate each year from Africa，some weighing as little as nine grams. (three－tenths of an ounce)．To complete a voyage that can be thousands of kilometers long，birds have to fatten themselves up to twice their normal weight.Some even shrink their internal organs (收缩内脏)to become more fuel efficient，so any additional distance may be dangerous.www.21-cn-jy.com
The study fin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ds that from 2071 to 2100，nine out of 17 species examined are going to face longer migrations，particularly birds that cross the Sahara Desert.Some birds traverse the Sahara and the Mediterranean Sea in a one－go，while others have a break in northern Africa before crossing.Many fly at night，when temperatures are cooler.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
A few—such as the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Blackcap—have started to adapt by spending winters in Britain，but such behaviour remains exceptional，the study said.The study forecasts that the migration distance of the Orphean Warbler will jump from 2，700 kilometers(1，700 miles)to between 3，050 and 3，350 kilometers(1，900 and 2，1 00miles)，with even longer increases for the Subalpine and Barred Warblers.
1．What does travelling extra distance mean for some migrating birds
A．Better living conditions.
B．Better physical health.
C．Stronger ability to fly.
D．Bigger threat to life.
2．To complete ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the marathon migrations，some birds have to do the following except________．21世纪教育网版权所有
A．have a break in Sahara
B．put on more weight
C．reduce the size of internal organs
D．fly at night to avoid the heat
3．What does the und ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erlined word“traverse”in the fourth paragraph mean
A．Examine. B．Face.
C．Cross. D．Challenge.

C．Birds that are of small size don't need to migrate.21cnjy.com
D．Some birds have to migrate unless they adapt to climate change.

Ⅱ.【语篇解读】 本文为说明文， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )属于科普类文章。文章通过实验验证了人和动物都具有“数感(number sense)”。所谓“数感”，就是指人或动物识别数量变化的能力。
1．C 下文涉及了三个实验 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，包括鸟识别“鸟蛋减少”、乌鸦识别“人数的变化”以及婴儿识别“一小组物体中数量的减少”，由此可知，number sense指识别数量“变化”的能力。
2．B 人类天生就具有数感这种能力， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )但实验表明许多动物也具有这种能力，这让人“觉得惊讶”。surprisingly意为“令人惊讶的是”，符合语境。importantly意为“重要的是”；disappointedly意为“令人失望的是”；fortunately意为“幸运的是”。
3．D 如果鸟巢中有四个蛋而 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )你拿走其中一个的话，鸟是不会注意到的。notice意为“注意到”，符合语境。倒数第二段中的For example，babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if...也提到了该词。survive意为“幸存”；care意为“在意，关心”；hatch意为“孵化”。
4．A 然而，如果你拿走两个鸟蛋的话，鸟通 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )常会离开，因为它意识到了鸟蛋数量的变化。generally意为“通常地，一般地”；sincerely意为“真诚地”；casually意为“随便地”；deliberately意为“有意地”。
5．C 拿走一个而剩下三个鸟 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )蛋时，鸟识别不出变化，但是拿走两个而剩下两个鸟蛋时，它识别出了变化，由此可看出，它能识别二和三的不同之处，故选difference“不同”。
6．A 根据下文的实验可看出， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )五以下的数量变化乌鸦均可识别，故乌鸦的这种能力是惊人的。amazing意为“惊人的”；annoying意为“令人讨厌的”；satisfying意为“令人满意的”；disturbing意为“令人不安的”。
7．D 根据下文中的But the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )crow did not return to the nest until all the men were...可得知答案。直到那个人离开塔时，乌鸦才回到巢中，故用return。
8．C 为了能拍到乌鸦的照片，他想 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )出了一个办法。have an idea意为“想出办法”，符合语境。appointment意为“约会”；excuse意为“借口”；explanation意为“解释”。2·1·c·n·j·y
9．A 根据本段最后一句中的fool the crow可得知答案。两个人同时进入塔，一人离开而另一人留下，但这并没能瞒过乌鸦。【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
10．B 上文已经提到了这个实验，故此处用repeated“重复”，指重复这个实验，只是实验中进入塔中的人数不断增加。21教育名师原创作品
11．B 由上下文可知，直到所有的人都离开 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )时，乌鸦才会返回巢中。gone意为“离开的，离去的”，符合语境。confused意为“困惑的”；tired意为“累的”；drunk意为“醉了的”。
12．D 直到五个人进入塔中而四个 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )离开时，乌鸦才最终被蒙蔽了。前面已经进行了多次实验，故finally“最后，最终”符合语境。gradually意为“逐渐地”；luckily意为“幸运地”；strangely意为“奇怪地”。
13．B 根据下句But when t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he number goes beyond three or four...可知，此处与the number goes beyond three or four形成对比，即只有这组物体数量少于三个时，婴儿才能识别出数量的减少，故推测应是一小组物体。
14．D 当物体数量超过三或者四 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )个时，婴儿经常被欺骗，即他们此时识别不出数量的变化，由此得知他们识别数量变化的能力不是很好。often“经常”，符合语境。seldom意为“很少，不常”；temporarily意为“暂时”；merely意为“仅仅”。
15．C 根据上文中的Number ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sense is not the ability to count.It is the ability to recognize a．..可知，number sense指人和动物的一种“能力”，但是人的这种能力并不比乌鸦强多少。21*cnjy*com
Ⅲ.1.D 细节理解题。根 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )据第二段中的“The added distance is a considerable threat”可知，多飞的行程对于一些候鸟来说是个很大的威胁。
2．A 细节理解题。由第三、四段可知，一些候鸟为了完成马拉松式的迁徙路程需要做的事包括了B、C和D二项。故选A。
3．C 词义猜测题。由上文“particul ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )arly birds that cross the Sahara Desert”，可以推测出，traverse意为“横穿，横跨”。
4．D 推理判断题。根据最后一段“A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )few—such as the Blackcap—have started to adapt by spending winters in Britain”可推知，候鸟若不能适应气候变化就必须迁徙到适合其生存的地方。www-2-1-cnjy-com
5．D 标题归纳题。第一段的信息点明了文章的主旨。即：气候变化迫使候鸟迁徙的更远。
Ⅳ.1.He never tells an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ything unless asked. 2.There is no doubt that London Olympics was a great success. 3.Many a quarrel has come about between them because they often misunderstand each other. 4.He did not subscribe to my proposal that we should stay here for another two days. 5.As is reported，the accident resulted in ten deaths.
