A waterfall-clim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bing fish-goby (虾虎鱼) in Hawaii uses the same muscles to both rise and feed, researchers have discovered. The rock-climbing, plant-eating fish, also known in Hawaiian as Nopoli, is found throughout Hawaii, and was once greatly used as food, and especially a favorite snack among priests (牧师).
Many gobies can inc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h their way up waterfalls with the aid of a sucker (吸盘) on their bellies. The Nopoli rock-climbing goby, on the other hand, can climb waterfalls as tall as 330 feet (100 meters) with the aid of a second mouth sucker, which develops after their mouthparts move from a forward-facing position to under the body during a two-day-long development into adulthood.
“For a human to g ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o the equivalent (相等的) distance based on body size, it’d be like doing a marathon, some 26 miles (42 kilometers) long, except climbing up a vertical cliff-face against rushing water,” said researcher Richard Blob, an evolutionary scientist at Clemson University in South Carolina. Indeed, an old Hawaiian saying is that as the Nopili clings, so will luck.
The goby, which ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n grow up to 7 inches (18 centimeters) long as an adult, feeds by sticking the tip of its upper jaw against rocks to take food off their surfaces. This behavior is quite distinct from other Hawaiian gobies, which feed by sucking in food from the water. Given the apparent similarity of the climbing and feeding behaviors of the S. stimpsoni species, researchers thought one might have developed from the other.
The scientists de ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tailed their findings online in the journal PLOS ONE. They also presented their findings at the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology annual meeting in San Francisco.
60. What can we learn about the Nopoli
A. It is rare and endangered.
B. It usually lives under rocks.
C. It could be served as snacks.
D. It has the same ways to rise and feed.
61. The Nopoli is different from many gobies because of _____.
A. its belly sucker B. its mouth sucker
C. its different size D. its special development
62. Blob’s words show that he thinks that _____.
A. the Nopoli’s coming into being was the result of luck.
B. the Nopoli’s body size became smaller during evolution.
C. the Nopoli’s sports skill can be learned by marathon runners.
D. the Nopoli does harder work than a marathon runner in some ways.
63. One of the Nopoli’s unique behaviors is that _____.
A. it finds food from water
B. it feeds from rock surfaces
C. it eats plants once in a while
D. it doesn’t eat while climbing

A homeless m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an in Las Vegas who had been living on the streets and had not seen his six children for nearly 25 years has been reunited with his daughter thanks to modern technology and the kindness of strangers.
Jimmy Francis was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) outside a Firehouse Subs shop earlier this month when he was spotted by a local businessman Jim Snyder, as he was going in to pick up his dinner. When Snyder saw Francis struggling in the cold weather, he, with the help of Firehouse employees, bought the man a sandwich and gave him some cash.
After Snyder ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) got home, his thoughts stayed with Francis left out in the cold. “He was shaking so uncontrollably and was so cold. It just broke my heart and I thought there’s something I’ve got to do here,” Snyder, 49, told . “By the time I got to where my home is, I knew I had to turn around and get him.”
Snyder, who says ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he had never before done anything like that, brought Francis to the home he shares with his wife, Maria, and gave him coffee, a warm shower, washed his clothes and packed a suitcase full of his own old clothes for Francis.
Over coffee and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a warm meal, Snyder, himself a father of five children and step-children, learned that Francis had not seen his six children for over two decades after a divorce. He was particularly torn, Snyder says, over not seeing his only daughter, Natalie.
“He told me he ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d colon cancer in 2010 and wasn’t expected to live and because of that experience, the one thing constantly in his mind is that he wants to be reunited with his children,” Snyder said.
The Snyders t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ook down the names and birth dates of Francis’s children and used social media to search for them.
The couple foun ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d Natalie Francis, now living in Northern California and herself a grandmother, on Facebook and sent her a message. Less than one hour later, they had a response.
“The message just said ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), ‘Oh my God. This is my dad. Is he okay ’” Snyder recalled.
Just days later th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e couple brought Francis, living temporarily with an acquaintance, back to their home for a Skype call with his daughter.
“A whole lot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of emotions,” is how Snyder recalled the virtual reunion. “That was the first time they’d seen each other in 24 years, literally. It was very, very special.”

The face of England ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’s King Richard Ш was revealed for the first time in more than 500 years on Tuesday after a reconstruction of his skeleton, which was found underneath a parking lot.
A three-dimensional pl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )astic model has been made from the skull(头盖骨)of the king, who was killed in 1485 after just two years being the king but lived on as one of history’s worst villains(坏人) in the play by William Shakespeare.
Researchers hop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e that the discovery of his remains under a parking lot in the central English city of Leicester, complete with the twisted spine(脊柱) of folkculture, will lead to a rehabilitation of his reputation.
And many believe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the image of his face, until now depicted(描绘) only in paintings, will be key to this.
“When I first ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )saw it, I thought there is enough of the portraits about it for it to be King Richard but not enough to suggest they have been copied. I think people will like it. He’s a man who lived.”
The reconstruction wor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k was led by Caroline Wilkinson, a professor at the University of Dundee in Scotland, and paid for by the Richard Ш Society.
A team at the Univers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ity of Leicester announced on Monday that DNA tests, carbon dating and examination of bones had proved beyond reasonable doubt that the skeleton found underneath a municipal parking lot last year was that of Richard.
68. According to the p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )assage, where was the skeleton of Richard III discovered
A. In a parking lot. B. Under a parking lot.
C. At a constru ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ction site. D. At the University of Dundee.
69. From the passage, what can we learn about Richard III
A. He was the king of England for many years.
B. He was famous for his kindness to the people.
C. He was killed in the 14th century.
D. There is a play about him by William Shakespeare.
70. What can we learn ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )about the construction work according to the passage
A. It was led by Phil Stone.
B. It may lead to a rehabilitation of Richard’s reputation.
C. The researchers did it for free.
D. People would not like the results of it.
71. What can be the best title of the passage
A. The face of Richard Ⅲ came to light.
B. One of history’s worst villains.
C. The mystery of Richard Ⅲ’s skeleton.
D. The secret under a parking lot.

In 1964, a te ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )enager in San Diego named Randy Gardner had an idea. He would see how long he could stay awake. By the end of the experiment, he had been up for 264 hours. Gardner had set a record for the longest period without sleep. But along the way, he was not quite himself. He became unhappy and forgetful. At one point: he mistook a street sign for a person.
A recent surv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ey found that on weeknights, as few as 14 percent of teens get enough sleep. They aren't the only ones who are tired. One-third of adults don' t get enough sleep, either.
In fact, lack of s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )leep can cause brain cells to die. Over time, it has been shown to cause permanent damage. It puts teenagers at risk for depression anxiety, obesity, bad grades, sports injuries, and serious diseases. In adults, it affects concentration, health, job performance, and mood (心情).
Getting enough sleep ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can make your life much better. Unfortunately, it is not easy.
Sleep is regulate ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d by what's known as a circadian rhythm (生理节律)．This rhythm is controlled by a body clock that tells you when it's time to be awake and asleep. During adolescence, that clock changes. Suddenly you feel like going to bed one to three hours later, But since school starts the same time it always has, getting enough sleep becomes difficult. An irregular schedule — such as sleeping until noon on Saturdays and going to bed at different times during the week — can also cause disorder in your circadian rhythm and make you feel exhausted.
There may be some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thing else contributing to your lack of sleep: technology. In a recent study, a group of 100 teenagers did an average of four tech-related activities after 9 p.m. They went online, watched TV played video games, and used cell phones. The more tech they used, the harder it was for them to fall asleep.
Like technolog ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y, anxiety can affect your brain' s ability to turn off, You may lie in bed for hours worrying about an upcoming math test or a fight you just had with your friend.
So go to bed before you find yourself talking to street signs !
72. According to the first paragraph, Randy Gardner _____.
A. was born in 1964
B. stayed awake for 11 days
C. was an American scientist
D. showed low intelligence as a teenager
73. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The effects of lack of sleep.
B. The causes of lack of sleep.
C. How to sleep more effectively.
D. Why getting enough sleep is important.
74. Why is it difficult for adolescents to get enough sleep
A. They have a full schedule.
B. They have too much homework to do.
C. They are suffering from certain diseases.
D. Their circadian rhythm becomes different from before.
75. What does the author think about the technology
A. Technology is everywhere.
B. Modern technology is amazing. '
C. Technology has a negative effect on teenagers.
D. Technology needs to be improved to help people sleep.

第四部分：写作(共两节，满分35分)
第一节 任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分, 满分10分)
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Codes and ciphers(暗码)
If you and your ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )friends wish to share a secret, you can write it in code, and no one else will be able to read it. Codes are one way of writing in secrets. Ciphers are another. In the code each word is written as a secret code or word number. In a cipher each letter is changed.
Codes and ciphers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have played an important role in the history of the war. Julius Caesar, the Roman ruler who defeated almost all the countries in Europe about 2000 years ago, used a cipher when he sent secret messages to his troops. During American Revolution, George Washington’s spies used a kind of code to send him information about the enemy before his military（军事的） action. In World War Ⅱ, the American “broke”, or figured out, Japan’s most important navy codes and got enough information to destroy a powerful Japanese fleet（舰队）。
Storekeepers use c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )odes to mark their goods. The codes show how much should be paid for the goods or when they were added to the stock. Businessman use codes to hide plans from their business enemies. Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code. Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.
In the 16th centu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ry, codes and ciphers were very popular among scientists. They wrote messages to each other in code so that no one else would learn their secrets. Geronimo Gardano, an Italian astrologer（星相家）,mathematician, and doctor, invented the trellis（格子） ciphers. He took two sheets of paper and cut exactly the same holes in each one. Then he sent one sheet, which he called a trellis, to a friend and kept the other for himself. Whenever he wanted to write a message, he put his trellis, over the clean sheet of paper and wrote the secret message through the holes. Then he removed the trellis and filed the rest of the paper with words that would make sense. When his friends received it, he put his trellis over the writing and read the secret message.

Congratulations, ev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erybody. Welcome to our university. The starting of the university can be exciting on the one hand, and can also be worrying on the other. No matter how you are going to learn, you have to make plans. In the first few months, spend some time walking around the university and find out what it is like. Do your best to get used to the life here and get to know your professors and classmates. Try to understand what our university expects of you and you will have your own goals. During this time you have to study hard to pass the exams. But what’s more important for you is to be able to know how to learn. Think about how you can reach your goals. You might have some difficulty in your studies and learning is not always an easy job. Some of you might give up studying. If so, just think it over before you make the decision. Learning is important because it will help shape your future. This is what I like to say to you at the moment. If you still have any questions, please come to my office. Thank you. 2-1-c-n-j-y

A waterfall-clim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bing fish-goby (虾虎鱼) in Hawaii uses the same muscles to both rise and feed, researchers have discovered. The rock-climbing, plant-eating fish, also known in Hawaiian as Nopoli, is found throughout Hawaii, and was once greatly used as food, and especially a favorite snack among priests (牧师).
Many gobies can inc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h their way up waterfalls with the aid of a sucker (吸盘) on their bellies. The Nopoli rock-climbing goby, on the other hand, can climb waterfalls as tall as 330 feet (100 meters) with the aid of a second mouth sucker, which develops after their mouthparts move from a forward-facing position to under the body during a two-day-long development into adulthood.
“For a human to g ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o the equivalent (相等的) distance based on body size, it’d be like doing a marathon, some 26 miles (42 kilometers) long, except climbing up a vertical cliff-face against rushing water,” said researcher Richard Blob, an evolutionary scientist at Clemson University in South Carolina. Indeed, an old Hawaiian saying is that as the Nopili clings, so will luck.
The goby, which ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n grow up to 7 inches (18 centimeters) long as an adult, feeds by sticking the tip of its upper jaw against rocks to take food off their surfaces. This behavior is quite distinct from other Hawaiian gobies, which feed by sucking in food from the water. Given the apparent similarity of the climbing and feeding behaviors of the S. stimpsoni species, researchers thought one might have developed from the other.
The scientists de ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tailed their findings online in the journal PLOS ONE. They also presented their findings at the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology annual meeting in San Francisco.
60. What can we learn about the Nopoli
A. It is rare and endangered.
B. It usually lives under rocks.
C. It could be served as snacks.
D. It has the same ways to rise and feed.
61. The Nopoli is different from many gobies because of _____.
A. its belly sucker B. its mouth sucker
C. its different size D. its special development
62. Blob’s words show that he thinks that _____.
A. the Nopoli’s coming into being was the result of luck.
B. the Nopoli’s body size became smaller during evolution.
C. the Nopoli’s sports skill can be learned by marathon runners.
D. the Nopoli does harder work than a marathon runner in some ways.
63. One of the Nopoli’s unique behaviors is that _____.
A. it finds food from water
B. it feeds from rock surfaces
C. it eats plants once in a while
D. it doesn’t eat while climbing

A homeless m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an in Las Vegas who had been living on the streets and had not seen his six children for nearly 25 years has been reunited with his daughter thanks to modern technology and the kindness of strangers.
Jimmy Francis was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) outside a Firehouse Subs shop earlier this month when he was spotted by a local businessman Jim Snyder, as he was going in to pick up his dinner. When Snyder saw Francis struggling in the cold weather, he, with the help of Firehouse employees, bought the man a sandwich and gave him some cash.
After Snyder ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) got home, his thoughts stayed with Francis left out in the cold. “He was shaking so uncontrollably and was so cold. It just broke my heart and I thought there’s something I’ve got to do here,” Snyder, 49, told . “By the time I got to where my home is, I knew I had to turn around and get him.”
Snyder, who says ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he had never before done anything like that, brought Francis to the home he shares with his wife, Maria, and gave him coffee, a warm shower, washed his clothes and packed a suitcase full of his own old clothes for Francis.
Over coffee and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a warm meal, Snyder, himself a father of five children and step-children, learned that Francis had not seen his six children for over two decades after a divorce. He was particularly torn, Snyder says, over not seeing his only daughter, Natalie.
“He told me he ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d colon cancer in 2010 and wasn’t expected to live and because of that experience, the one thing constantly in his mind is that he wants to be reunited with his children,” Snyder said.
The Snyders t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ook down the names and birth dates of Francis’s children and used social media to search for them.
The couple foun ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d Natalie Francis, now living in Northern California and herself a grandmother, on Facebook and sent her a message. Less than one hour later, they had a response.
“The message just said ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), ‘Oh my God. This is my dad. Is he okay ’” Snyder recalled.
Just days later th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e couple brought Francis, living temporarily with an acquaintance, back to their home for a Skype call with his daughter.
“A whole lot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of emotions,” is how Snyder recalled the virtual reunion. “That was the first time they’d seen each other in 24 years, literally. It was very, very special.”
64. According to the passage, we can know that ___________.

The face of England ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’s King Richard Ш was revealed for the first time in more than 500 years on Tuesday after a reconstruction of his skeleton, which was found underneath a parking lot.
A three-dimensional pl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )astic model has been made from the skull(头盖骨)of the king, who was killed in 1485 after just two years being the king but lived on as one of history’s worst villains(坏人) in the play by William Shakespeare.
Researchers hop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e that the discovery of his remains under a parking lot in the central English city of Leicester, complete with the twisted spine(脊柱) of folkculture, will lead to a rehabilitation of his reputation.
And many believe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the image of his face, until now depicted(描绘) only in paintings, will be key to this.
“When I first ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )saw it, I thought there is enough of the portraits about it for it to be King Richard but not enough to suggest they have been copied. I think people will like it. He’s a man who lived.”
The reconstruction wor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k was led by Caroline Wilkinson, a professor at the University of Dundee in Scotland, and paid for by the Richard Ш Society.
A team at the Univers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ity of Leicester announced on Monday that DNA tests, carbon dating and examination of bones had proved beyond reasonable doubt that the skeleton found underneath a municipal parking lot last year was that of Richard.
68. According to the p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )assage, where was the skeleton of Richard III discovered
A. In a parking lot. B. Under a parking lot.
C. At a constru ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ction site. D. At the University of Dundee.
69. From the passage, what can we learn about Richard III
A. He was the king of England for many years.
B. He was famous for his kindness to the people.
C. He was killed in the 14th century.
D. There is a play about him by William Shakespeare.
70. What can we learn ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )about the construction work according to the passage
A. It was led by Phil Stone.
B. It may lead to a rehabilitation of Richard’s reputation.
C. The researchers did it for free.
D. People would not like the results of it.
71. What can be the best title of the passage

D. The secret under a parking lot.

In 1964, a te ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )enager in San Diego named Randy Gardner had an idea. He would see how long he could stay awake. By the end of the experiment, he had been up for 264 hours. Gardner had set a record for the longest period without sleep. But along the way, he was not quite himself. He became unhappy and forgetful. At one point: he mistook a street sign for a person.
A recent surv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ey found that on weeknights, as few as 14 percent of teens get enough sleep. They aren't the only ones who are tired. One-third of adults don' t get enough sleep, either.
In fact, lack of s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )leep can cause brain cells to die. Over time, it has been shown to cause permanent damage. It puts teenagers at risk for depression anxiety, obesity, bad grades, sports injuries, and serious diseases. In adults, it affects concentration, health, job performance, and mood (心情).
Getting enough sleep ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can make your life much better. Unfortunately, it is not easy.
Sleep is regulate ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d by what's known as a circadian rhythm (生理节律)．This rhythm is controlled by a body clock that tells you when it's time to be awake and asleep. During adolescence, that clock changes. Suddenly you feel like going to bed one to three hours later, But since school starts the same time it always has, getting enough sleep becomes difficult. An irregular schedule — such as sleeping until noon on Saturdays and going to bed at different times during the week — can also cause disorder in your circadian rhythm and make you feel exhausted.
There may be some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thing else contributing to your lack of sleep: technology. In a recent study, a group of 100 teenagers did an average of four tech-related activities after 9 p.m. They went online, watched TV played video games, and used cell phones. The more tech they used, the harder it was for them to fall asleep.
Like technolog ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y, anxiety can affect your brain' s ability to turn off, You may lie in bed for hours worrying about an upcoming math test or a fight you just had with your friend.
So go to bed before you find yourself talking to street signs !
72. According to the first paragraph, Randy Gardner _____.
A. was born in 1964
B. stayed awake for 11 days
C. was an American scientist
D. showed low intelligence as a teenager
73. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The effects of lack of sleep.
B. The causes of lack of sleep.
C. How to sleep more effectively.
D. Why getting enough sleep is important.
74. Why is it difficult for adolescents to get enough sleep
A. They have a full schedule.
B. They have too much homework to do.
C. They are suffering from certain diseases.
D. Their circadian rhythm becomes different from before.
75. What does the author think about the technology
A. Technology is everywhere.
B. Modern technology is amazing. '
C. Technology has a negative effect on teenagers.
D. Technology needs to be improved to help people sleep.

注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Codes and ciphers(暗码)
If you and your ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )friends wish to share a secret, you can write it in code, and no one else will be able to read it. Codes are one way of writing in secrets. Ciphers are another. In the code each word is written as a secret code or word number. In a cipher each letter is changed.
Codes and ciphers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have played an important role in the history of the war. Julius Caesar, the Roman ruler who defeated almost all the countries in Europe about 2000 years ago, used a cipher when he sent secret messages to his troops. During American Revolution, George Washington’s spies used a kind of code to send him information about the enemy before his military（军事的） action. In World War Ⅱ, the American “broke”, or figured out, Japan’s most important navy codes and got enough information to destroy a powerful Japanese fleet（舰队）。
Storekeepers use c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )odes to mark their goods. The codes show how much should be paid for the goods or when they were added to the stock. Businessman use codes to hide plans from their business enemies. Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code. Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.
In the 16th centu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ry, codes and ciphers were very popular among scientists. They wrote messages to each other in code so that no one else would learn their secrets. Geronimo Gardano, an Italian astrologer（星相家）,mathematician, and doctor, invented the trellis（格子） ciphers. He took two sheets of paper and cut exactly the same holes in each one. Then he sent one sheet, which he called a trellis, to a friend and kept the other for himself. Whenever he wanted to write a message, he put his trellis, over the clean sheet of paper and wrote the secret message through the holes. Then he removed the trellis and filed the rest of the paper with words that would make sense. When his friends received it, he put his trellis over the writing and read the secret message.
Introduction ● Codes and Ciphers help convey secrets in different ways.
Important(76) _____ in the war. ●Cipher once helpe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d Julius Caesar (77)______ messages secretly.● George Washington knew about his enemy through a kind of code.● Americans (78)______ a powerful Japanese fleet after breaking Japan’s navy codes.

Congratulations, ev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erybody. Welcome to our university. The starting of the university can be exciting on the one hand, and can also be worrying on the other. No matter how you are going to learn, you have to make plans. In the first few months, spend some time walking around the university and find out what it is like. Do your best to get used to the life here and get to know your professors and classmates. Try to understand what our university expects of you and you will have your own goals. During this time you have to study hard to pass the exams. But what’s more important for you is to be able to know how to learn. Think about how you can reach your goals. You might have some difficulty in your studies and learning is not always an easy job. Some of you might give up studying. If so, just think it over before you make the decision. Learning is important because it will help shape your future. This is what I like to say to you at the moment. If you still have any questions, please come to my office. Thank you. 2-1-c-n-j-y
