Have you ever wond ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ered why birds sing Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists bel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ieve that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing mainly for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know wha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t a “territory” is A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and your friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have act ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
You can see th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at birds have a language of their own. Most of it has something to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
24. Some scientists ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually ________.
A. a way of warning B. an expression of happiness
C. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting
25. What is a bird’s “territory”
A. A place where families of other species are accepted.
B. An area which a bird considers to be its own.
C. A place where a bird may never shout at the top of its voice.
D. An area for which birds fight against each other.
26. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season
A. Because they want to invite more friends.
B. Because they want to find outsiders around.
C. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
27. How does the writer explain birds’ singing
A. By reporting experiment results.
B. By describing a bird’s daily life.
C. By comparing birds with human beings.
D. By telling a bird’s story.
C
It is reasonable to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) say that every teenager can be influenced by peer pressure (从众心理) at some point. Every day, in any high school, peer pressure has a major influence over the behaviour of teenagers. It can be as slight as being persuaded to be late for class or as serious as a dangerous drug. Whether slight or serious, peer pressure can have harmful, sometimes life changing, and even bad results.
“Teens don’t often consider the long-term results that some behaviors can cause,” said Terri Price, a researcher. “Peer pressure can be very difficult to handle for many teens because of their fears of not fitting in.” Peer pressure has always been part of teen life, but teens experience it more differently than their former generations did in the past. Sources of peer pressure have increased because of the Internet and other electronic communications.
Recognizing peer pre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ssure can be as simple as noticing that you have been asked to do something that you are not comfortable with. “Listen to your instinct (直觉), which is a sign for whether something is right or wrong. If it feels wrong then most likely it is,” says Price.
Teens are in a time of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) life when they are still discovering who they are. Many teens are influenced by peer pressure because of their unsafe feelings. This can make them helpless especially when their self-control is weak or they don’t have healthy support, causing them to take risky behavior or turn to unhealthy support.
Dealing with peer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pressure is a topic of concern for teens. People can say, “Just say no,” but the truth is that the word is easier said than done.
28. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to___________.
A. recognizing peer pressure B. peer pressure
C. instinct D. sign
29. Why are teens easily influenced by peer pressure
A. Because their self-control is weak.
B. Because they have fears of not fitting in.
C. Because they don’t have the feeling of safety.
D. Because they have nobody to turn to when in trouble.
30. You learn wheth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er a teen suffers peer pressure by watching_________ .
A. how his behaviour changes
B. how he can get safety
C. whether it is slight or serious
D. whether he feels comfortable with his family
31. According to the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) passage, we learn that dealing with peer pressure is___________ .
A. not difficult B. to listen to your instinct
C. easier said th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an done D. an impossible task
D
Saunders was the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )last one in his class to be picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket— anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym chasses in Devonshire, England.
It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.
The following year, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) he met John Ridgway and was hired as an teacher at Ridgway’ s School of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about Ridgway’ s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.
In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition（探险）towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered a lot, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit.
Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.
Next October, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900 kilometers journey that has never been completed on skis.
32．What do we know about Saunders in the first paragraph
A．He liked sports but was not good at them.
B．He was hardly chosen for sports team.
C．He always made fun of school gym chasses
D．He was not welcome in his class.
33．Which of the following is right
A．Saunders became the youngest person to ski to the North pole
B．Compared wi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )th other British, he’s skied more of the North Pole alone.
C．It was his 15th bir ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thday gift that made him decide to build up his body
D．The 2900 kilometers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )journey on skis has never been completed by Saunders
34．Which of the follow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing is the correct order of the events that happened to Saunders
a．He ran his first marathon. b．He skied alone in the North Pole.
c．he rode hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s bike in a forest. d．He planned an adventure to the South Pole.
A．acdb B．cdab C．acbd D．cabd
35．What does the story mainly tell us about Saunders
A．He was a success in sports B．He changes a lot through his efforts
C．He was not Ri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )drway’s favorite student. D．He is a good teacher at school.
第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How can we all get mo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re laughter into our lives Here is what the experts suggest:
36 . Nancy Algui ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re, a teacher in Clifton Park, N. Y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing. Then she married a circus clown (小丑). “I became interested in the clowns,” she recalls “One day I put on a costume and paint my face. That afternoon my whole life changed. I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.” 37 To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.
38 It doesn’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) take you too much time and can be easy. Collect favorite cartoons and jokes. Also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life. “Good ideas come and go fast, you have to catch them quickly or they are gone,” says Virginia Tooper.
Laugh when you n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eed it most. “ 39 ” says comedian Bill Cosby. “And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can go through it,” he says.
Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can all gain – because it comes naturally. 40 . Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs.
A．You can soften the worst through humor.
B．Mix with people who laugh.
C．Practise the art of laughing.
D．Keep a laughter record.
E．He who laughs last laughs best.
F．But it’s also something that has to be developed.
G．People’s joy can influence those around them.

Have you ever wond ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ered why birds sing Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists bel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ieve that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing mainly for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know wha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t a “territory” is A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and your friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have act ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
You can see th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at birds have a language of their own. Most of it has something to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
24. Some scientists ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually ________.
A. a way of warning B. an expression of happiness
C. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting
25. What is a bird’s “territory”
A. A place where families of other species are accepted.
B. An area which a bird considers to be its own.
C. A place where a bird may never shout at the top of its voice.
D. An area for which birds fight against each other.
26. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season
A. Because they want to invite more friends.
B. Because they want to find outsiders around.
C. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
27. How does the writer explain birds’ singing
A. By reporting experiment results.
B. By describing a bird’s daily life.
C. By comparing birds with human beings.
D. By telling a bird’s story.
C
It is reasonable to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) say that every teenager can be influenced by peer pressure (从众心理) at some point. Every day, in any high school, peer pressure has a major influence over the behaviour of teenagers. It can be as slight as being persuaded to be late for class or as serious as a dangerous drug. Whether slight or serious, peer pressure can have harmful, sometimes life changing, and even bad results.
“Teens don’t often consider the long-term results that some behaviors can cause,” said Terri Price, a researcher. “Peer pressure can be very difficult to handle for many teens because of their fears of not fitting in.” Peer pressure has always been part of teen life, but teens experience it more differently than their former generations did in the past. Sources of peer pressure have increased because of the Internet and other electronic communications.
Recognizing peer pre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ssure can be as simple as noticing that you have been asked to do something that you are not comfortable with. “Listen to your instinct (直觉), which is a sign for whether something is right or wrong. If it feels wrong then most likely it is,” says Price.
Teens are in a time of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) life when they are still discovering who they are. Many teens are influenced by peer pressure because of their unsafe feelings. This can make them helpless especially when their self-control is weak or they don’t have healthy support, causing them to take risky behavior or turn to unhealthy support.
Dealing with peer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pressure is a topic of concern for teens. People can say, “Just say no,” but the truth is that the word is easier said than done.
28. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to___________.
A. recognizing peer pressure B. peer pressure
C. instinct D. sign
29. Why are teens easily influenced by peer pressure
A. Because their self-control is weak.
B. Because they have fears of not fitting in.
C. Because they don’t have the feeling of safety.
D. Because they have nobody to turn to when in trouble.
30. You learn wheth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er a teen suffers peer pressure by watching_________ .
A. how his behaviour changes
B. how he can get safety
C. whether it is slight or serious
D. whether he feels comfortable with his family
31. According to the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) passage, we learn that dealing with peer pressure is___________ .
A. not difficult B. to listen to your instinct
C. easier said th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an done D. an impossible task
D
Saunders was the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )last one in his class to be picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket— anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym chasses in Devonshire, England.
It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.
The following year, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) he met John Ridgway and was hired as an teacher at Ridgway’ s School of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about Ridgway’ s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.
In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition（探险）towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered a lot, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit.
Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.
Next October, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900 kilometers journey that has never been completed on skis.
32．What do we know about Saunders in the first paragraph
A．He liked sports but was not good at them.
B．He was hardly chosen for sports team.
C．He always made fun of school gym chasses
D．He was not welcome in his class.
33．Which of the following is right
A．Saunders became the youngest person to ski to the North pole
B．Compared wi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )th other British, he’s skied more of the North Pole alone.
C．It was his 15th bir ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thday gift that made him decide to build up his body
D．The 2900 kilometers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )journey on skis has never been completed by Saunders
34．Which of the follow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing is the correct order of the events that happened to Saunders
a．He ran his first marathon. b．He skied alone in the North Pole.
c．he rode hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s bike in a forest. d．He planned an adventure to the South Pole.
A．acdb B．cdab C．acbd D．cabd
35．What does the story mainly tell us about Saunders
A．He was a success in sports B．He changes a lot through his efforts
C．He was not Ri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )drway’s favorite student. D．He is a good teacher at school.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How can we all get mo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re laughter into our lives Here is what the experts suggest:
36 . Nancy Algui ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re, a teacher in Clifton Park, N. Y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing. Then she married a circus clown (小丑). “I became interested in the clowns,” she recalls “One day I put on a costume and paint my face. That afternoon my whole life changed. I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.” 37 To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.
38 It doesn’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) take you too much time and can be easy. Collect favorite cartoons and jokes. Also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life. “Good ideas come and go fast, you have to catch them quickly or they are gone,” says Virginia Tooper.
Laugh when you n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eed it most. “ 39 ” says comedian Bill Cosby. “And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can go through it,” he says.
Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can all gain – because it comes naturally. 40 . Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs.
A．You can soften the worst through humor.
B．Mix with people who laugh.
C．Practise the art of laughing.
D．Keep a laughter record.
E．He who laughs last laughs best.
F．But it’s also something that has to be developed.
G．People’s joy can influence those around them.
