(测试时间:120分钟 评价分值:120分)
第一部分 阅读(共两节,满分40分)
第一节 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。
A
Even plant can run a fever,especially when they're under attack by insects or disease.But unlike human,plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away—straight up.A decade ago,adopting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites,physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress.The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field,which invariably includes plants that don't have pest problems.
Even better,Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye.Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night,an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a colour-coded map showing where plants were running “fevers”.Farmers could then spot-spray,using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.
The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984,after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find.But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce,and refinements in infrared scanning,Paley hopes to get back into operation.Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works.“This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States,” says George Oerther of Texas A & M.Ray Jackson,who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture,thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.
1.Plants will send out an increased amount of heat when they are ________.
A.facing an infrared scanner
B.sprayed with pesticides
C.in poor physical condition
D.exposed to excessive sun rays
2.The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties________.
A.its high cost
B.the lack of official support
C.the lack of financial support
D.its failure to help increase production
3.Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of________.
A.full support from agricultural experts
B.growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on crops
C.the forceful promotion by the Department of Agriculture
D.the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce
1.解析:细节理解题。由文章第二段 “...an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a colour-coded map showing where plants were running ‘fevers’”可知,植物在发“高烧”,也就是说,植物在“身体状况”不佳时才会散发出热。
答案:C
2.解析:细节理解题。由文章第三段的第一句“The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984,after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find”可知,红外线扫描技术应用于农业遇到了一些问题,原因有两个:一是农民对新技术的抵制;二是难以找到长期赞助商。还有一处明显的提示出现在文章的最后一句“But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago”,从该句提供的信息同样可以反推出10年前的情形。
答案:C
3.解析:细节理解题。由文章第三段 “But with the renewed concern about pesticide on produce,and refinements in infrared scanning,Paley hopes to get back into operation”可知B项正确。
答案:B
B
Nuclear-powered aircraft carriers are considered one of the most important marine weapons in the 20th century.So far,only two countries in the world,the USA and France,have ever produced them.But these fearful fighting machines are about to enter Asia.
The US Navy said last month that one of its nine nuclear-powered aircraft carriers will be sent to Japan to replace the diesel(柴油)-powered carrier Kitty Hawk in 2008.In an agreement on October 30th,the two countries also plan to level up their military (军事的) cooperation and the USA called for Japan to take a larger role in alliance military moves.
It will be the first time that a nuclear-powered carrier is based in Japan.Bombed by US forces in World War Ⅱ at Hiroshima and Nagasaki,Japan is the only world country to have been attacked by a nuclear weapon.Therefore,the citizens are highly sensitive to where nuclear powered weapons are based.
“A radiation leak at Yokosuka would kill 100,000 people as far away as Tokyo,and could cause billions of dollars in damage,” said Masahiko Goto,leader of a protest group in Yokosuka.His group has collected more than 300,000 signatures of people across Japan opposed to the nuclear carrier.
The 44-year-old Kitty Hawk,the US navy's oldest active ship,has been based in Yokosuka since 1998.It had returned to the US to be decommissioned in 2008.The new carrier,yet to be unveiled,will travel faster,be capable of supporting longer operations and carry with it the Navy's most modern technology.
Experts pointed that this change is not only to strengthen the US-Japan military alliance but also to keep the military power of China and North Korea within limits.However,even Japanese experts don't believe that the two countries are threats to the region.
“There is no need for Japan to have a nuclear carrier as defense,” said Tetsuo Maeda,an international relations professor at Tokyo International University.He said that the change of ship indicates an increased military capability in the region,much more than what is needed.
4.With such a formidable(强大的) weapon to enter its country,Japanese citizens________.
A.are aware of its benefits to the country
B.are anxious about its potential danger
C.are curious about the advanced technology
D.are against where the carrier will be based
5.The replacement of the aircraft carrier is intended to ________.
A.set up a kind of base in Japan
B.strengthen the US-Japan military alliance
C.show Japan's greater military capability
D.get rid of the dated marine weapon
6.From the story,we learn that________.
A.no other countries except the USA and France possess aircraft carriers
B.Japan has long planned to increase its military capability with new weapons
C.Japan will be the first country in Asia to have a nuclear aircraft carrier
D.Japan will be the third country to produce a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier
7.The underlined word “unveiled” probably means________.
A.perfected B.discussed about
C.produced D.brought to view
4.解析:细节理解题。由第三段中“Japan is the only world country to have been attacked by a nuclear weapon.Therefore,the citizens are highly sensitive to where nuclear powered weapons are based”可知B项正确。
答案:B
5.解析:细节理解题。由文章第二段中的内容可知。
答案:B
6.解析:推理判断题。由文章第三段第一句话“It will be the first time that a nuclear-powered carrier is based in Japan”可知。
答案:C
7.解析:词义猜测题。根据上下文提供的语境可推测,unveil意为“揭开,使得……显露出来”。
答案:D
C
Organic(有机的) farming is a type of agriculture that benefits from the recycling and use of natural products.Use of dried plants not only saves money,but also ensures the growth of crops.The technique is characterized by the use of green manure(肥料),biological pest control methods and special farming techniques to keep soil productivity.Limiting the use of man-made chemicals or completely doing away with them reduces the risk of diseases.Today,organic farming is a major and preferred industry around the world.Organically grown products have a huge market,with farmlands covering about 10% of the total world-farmland cover.The_hard_work_of_Sir_Albert_Howard,the_Father_of_Organic_Farming,has_paid_off.
Advantages of Organic Farming:
1.The economics of organic farming are characterized by increasing profits through reduced water use and reduced soil erosion(侵蚀).
2.Organic farming produces the same crops as those produced through traditional farming methods,but uses half the energy,and holds 40% more top soil.
3.Farming the organic way enables farmers to get rid of weeds without the use of any chemicals.
4.The use of green pesticides (杀虫剂) is environmentally friendly and does no harm to human's health.
Disadvantages of Organic Farming:
1.Organic methods of farming produce less,compared to traditional farming techniques.
2.Organic agriculture does little to fight global climate change.Though organic farming practices are recognized as giving out less CO2,but not to a significant degree.
3.However,though there are some disadvantages to organic farming,farms where organic methods for cropping have been used have more advantages than traditional farms.Organic agriculture is surely better in the long term.
8.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 shows that Sir Albert Howard________.
A.worked hard for nothing
B.succeeded in organic farming
C.spent all his time on organic farming
D.didn't expect organic farming to be successful
9.According to the passage,compared to traditional farming,Organic farming________.
a.is more environmentally friendly
b.produces a lot more food
c.uses less energy
d.results in more weeds in the farmland
e.is better for human's health
A.abc B.acd
C.ace D.bce
10.The author's attitude toward organic farming is________.
A.anxious B.hopeless
C.unclear D.optimistic
11.The writer wrote this passage to tell us________.
A.the development of agriculture
B.what kind of food is being grown at present
C.why organic farming is so popular around the world
D.what organic farming is and its advantages and disadvantages
答案:8~11 BCDD

Hydroponics(水培)is the only way that in the future we will be able to grow crops and food and at the same time sustain(维持)the earth.It is a method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions,without soil.
These days we are losing land at such a rapid rate that it is only a matter of time before we will run out of land to develop.If we continue to grow at such a rate, eventually the only land left to be developed will be farmland.If we use farmland to put up more apartments,then we will have no land to grow crops to survive.This is becoming a serious possibility.This is why scientists have developed another way to grow food and plants without using land.
The great thing about hydroponics growing is that anyone can do it.If you have the knowledge and the right equipment,you can do it yourself at your home.This means that individuals that live in downtown areas and have no yard space for a garden can grow vegetables and fruits and herbs(药草)which will free them from going to the grocery store every day.
The equipment to grow plants using a hydroponics system is easy to obtain and can be easily picked up at a local store or over the Internet.They are reasonably priced and easy to use.All you have to do is to follow the instructions.You will soon be on your way to free groceries.
With a hydroponics system,your plants will all grow faster.This is especially good if you grow and sell them.You can expect a higher yield(出产)and they grow quickly.You can save a lot of money by using them for cooking all year round.You can also expect to have a fresh supply of high quality vegetables and green leaves on a regular basis.
12.If you use a hydroponics system at your house,________.
A.the plants will grow much slower than on farmland
B.you can only harvest enough plants for your kitchen use
C.you will need some other people to help you maintain it
D.you will no longer have to go to the grocery store every day
13.We can know from the second paragraph that ________.
A.scientists are looking for another way to grow food without using land
B.our farmland is increasing slowly because of global warming
C.we will run out of land to develop within ten years
D.the farmland will be the last to be developed in future
14.What would be the best title for this passage?
A.Our Planet is Crying
B.Hydroponics is the Future of Farming
C.The Invention of the Hydroponics System
D.How to Buy and Use a Hydroponics System
15.We are most likely to read this passage in the______section of a newspaper.
A.education B.science
C.politics D.business
12.解析:细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句的“which will free them from going to the grocery store every day”可知D项正确。
答案:D
13.解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知由于人口的迅速增长,最后只好开发农业用地来解决人类的居住问题了。
答案:D
14.解析:主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了水培的发展趋势及其优点。
答案:B
15.解析:推理判断题。本文主要介绍了未来农业的新模式——水培以及它的各种优点,这是科技兴农的典范,因此有可能出现在报纸中的“科技”一栏。
答案:B

__19__Find a place in your home where you can sit in a comfortable chair. Don't lie down unless you're going to sleep. There should be television or computer near the chair, and no music or no noisy family members/roommates. If you don't have a place like this, create one.
Reduce television/the Internet. If you really want to read more, try cutting back on time on TV or the Internet.__20__Still, every minute you reduce of the Internet/TV, you could use for reading. This could create hours of book reading time.
A.Wherever you go, take a book with you.
B.Go to bookstores.

第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面的短文,按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。
David was a small boy in rags. I had often wondered what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school 41.________(dress) so inappropriately for the cold winter 42.________(month), without a coat, boot, or gloves. But something made David special. I can still remember he was always wearing a smile and willing to help. He always stayed after school 43.________(straighten) chairs and mop the floor. He would just 44.________(simple) smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting 45.________stay and slowly head for home.
One day before Christmas,David handed me a small box,46.________is nice but 47.________my surprise empty, saying, “It's full of love. My mum told me before she died 48.________love was something you couldn't see or touch unless you know it's there.”
I looked at the proud dirty face that I 49.________(give) attention to so rarely, with tears 50.________(fill) my eyes.
41.解析:dress作及物动词,不接clothes之类表示衣服的名词,而是接人的名词或代词,意为“给……穿衣服”,因此可知her son 与dress之间是被动关系,故用过去分词。

44.解析:要用副词修饰动词。simple的副词是simply。
答案:simply
45.解析:根据上文可知,小男孩非常感谢老师能让他留下来。
答案:him
46.解析:分析句子结构可知,所填词引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为a small box,且从句中缺少主语,所以应该用关系代词which。
答案:which
47.解析:to one's surprise使……感到惊讶,是固定搭配。
答案:to
48.解析:句中含有宾语从句,从句中不缺少任何成分,所以用that。

答案:had given
50.解析:tears与fill之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词。
答案:filling

When passing the bus station on my way home, I found out a little girl alone crying. Obviously, she was losing, looking for her mother. I came up and asked her why. When asked where her mother was, she just shook head and kept crying. Then I took her to the station broadcasting room for a help.” Anyone who lost a child please come to our broadcasting room...” which was soon heard again and again. Minutes later, a worrying mother came. The girl ran to her mother happy, tears still in eyes. The mother was very thankful and asked for my name.

Make the Best Use of Our Land
It_is the land that has been providing us with everything we need for centuries.In_other_words,almost everything we use daily comes from the land directly or indirectly.The food,clothes,houses,even the books and furniture are all supplied by the land.
But the limited land is decreasing at_a_surprising_speed.With the expanding of the cities,the development of the industry and over population,lots of large pieces of good farmland are being turned into residential areas with many houses and apartment buildings or industrial areas.
Therefore,some_measures_must_be_taken to stop the abusing(滥用) of our farmland.On_the_other_hand,we should let everyone realize the danger of being_short_of land.And we should educate them how to make_better_use_of our land.

一、请将课文“A Pioneer for All People”译成汉语,然后参考译文助读自主勘误
译文助读:
造福全人类的先驱者
尽管是中国最著名的科学家之一,袁隆平仍然认为自己是个农民,因为他在田间耕作,进行科学研究。的确,他那被太阳晒得黝黑的脸庞和手臂,以及他那瘦削而又结实的身躯,就跟其他千百万中国农民一样,过去50年来,他一直在努力帮助他们。袁隆平种植的是被称为“超级杂交水稻”的稻种。1973年,他成为世界上第一位种植高产水稻的农业先锋。这种特殊的稻种使得同样的田地多收获20%的产量。如今中国每年出产的稻米有60%以上出自这种杂交稻种。
袁隆平1930年出生在一个贫穷的农民家庭,1953年毕业于西南农学院。从那时起,找到水稻高产的方法就成为他一生的目标。年轻时,他就看到了稻田增产的巨大需求。当时,饥荒是许多农村地区面临的严重问题。袁隆平要在不增加土地面积的基础上寻求达到增收稻谷的途径。1950年,中国农民只能生产5600万吨稻谷,而近年来却生产了将近两亿吨稻谷。这一粮食产量的增加意味着中国占世界仅仅7%的耕地养活了世界22%的人口。袁隆平现在在印度、越南和很多其他欠发达国家传播提高水稻产量的知识。由于他的研究,联合国在消除世界饥饿的战斗中有了更多的方法。用他的杂交水稻种子,农民们种出的粮食比以前多了一倍。
袁隆平对生活非常满足。但是,他对成名并不在意,并且觉得出名后搞科研就不那么自由了。他宁愿把时间花在自己的业余爱好上。他喜欢听小提琴乐曲、搓麻将、游泳和读书。在自己身上花钱或者享受舒适的生活对他来说意义也不大。事实上,他认为一个人有了太多钱,他的麻烦事只会更多,而不是更少。于是,他拿出好几百万元帮助其他人进行农业科学研究。
梦想是不花本钱的。很久以前,袁隆平曾在梦里看到水稻长得像高粱一样高,稻穗跟玉米穗一样大,而每粒稻谷像花生米一般大。他从梦中醒来,希望能种植一种能养活更多人的水稻。如今袁隆平还有另外一个梦想,那就是他的稻谷可以出口并长遍全球。一个梦想总是不够的,尤其对一个热爱和关心人民的人来说更是如此。,二、课文精选段落背诵,请注意意群、连读和升降调

Dr Yuan Longping searched for a way to increase rice harvests without expand the area of the fields. In 1950, Chinese farmers can produce only fifty million tons of rice. In a recent harvest, however, near two hundred million tons of rice was produced. These increase harvests mean that 22% of the world's people fed from just 7% of the farmland in China. Dr Yuan is now circulated his knowledge in India, Vietnam and many other less developed countries to increase for their rice harvests.
