Catherine chooses new mountains from books. “I see a nice mountain and I go to climb it!” Her next mountain is in Pakistan. She is going there next month. “it’s much bigger than the Dru, so it’s going to take longer to climb. An American climber, Jeff Lowe, is coming with me to help.”

He was her best friend’s boyfriend. It sounds like a lifetime TV movie. Back in high school in Chicago, Sue Napolitano and Larry McNevin were just friends. They wore jackets and were always sitting on the bridge smoking. But neither gave the other a romantic thought. In fact, asked to describe each other back in those days, Sue and Larry both came up with the adjective: “nice”.
On Sept.11, 2004, after 35 years, the high school friends were about to find out how “nice” could be. Larry was looking for another friend with whom he went to high school through Classmates.com, a service that reconnects high school friends through e-mails. That friend suggested he call Sue.
Then Larry and Sue talked from the topics of music to food and found they shared similar tastes. After that, they both ran to their closets to dig out their yearbooks to find the other’s picture.
With that one call, Sue, who divorced in 1985 after five years of marriage, and Larry, who divorced in 1997, began calling and e-mailing each other daily. A month late Sue flew to Chicago. Larry and Sue hugged and fried when they met at the airport. They were like two lovers separated for years.
On April 11, 2005, while the tow were in Las Vegas, they got married.

There’s a new zoo in Louisiana, US, which has many of the usual attractions. Like most zoos, its goal is to protect wild animals and educate the public. However, the Louisiana Audubon Nature Center is more than a wildlife center. It has a Planetarium ( 天文馆 ), a forest, and a special frozen zoo that rarely has visitors.
Saving species from dying out is the main goal of the Nature Center. Tourists visit the public areas of the Nature Center. But scientists work behind the public areas. They use the place to prevent animals dying out. They hope that the frozen woo will one day be able to save and keep all the animals alive on out planet. In the frozen zoo, there aren’t any live animals in cage. Instead, it has live cells in tiny building blocks of the animals—in liquid nitrogen ( 氮 ) bottles. Liquid nitrogen is very cold and it keeps the cells perfect so the cells should be safe for hundreds of years. The frozen zoo has over 1.000 different species that are put in nitrogen. If one of these species becomes endangered, the scientists can unfreeze the cells and bring the species back.
Many animals are struggling to survive. But their future is not that worrying, because there are more and more zoos joining the frozen zoo project. And scientists are also working to save habitats. Hopefully we will be able to save all species from dying out and give them a safe place to live.
56. What makes Audubon Nature center a special zoo?
A. Protecting wild animals. B. Educating the public.
C. Being built in Louisiana. D. Having a special frozen zoo
57. What’s the main purpose of the Nature Center in Louisiana?
A. To save species from dying out. B. To freeze animals.
C. To conduct scientific experiments. D. To entertain the public.
58. The underlined phrase “tiny building blocks of the animals” in Paragraph 2 means _____.
rows of buildings for animals to live in.
rows of bottles containing live cells of animals
rows of cages for animals to live in
rows of frozen zoos
59. Which of the following statements is true?
The goal of the new zoo is to make money
The scientist hope that the new zoo can save and keep the animals alive that can not be alive in other zoos
The future of many animals is so worrying.
The Louisiana Audubon Nature Center is different from others in that it has a Planetarium, a forest, and a special frozen zoo.
60. The best title is “_____”.
A. A Wildlife Center B. A Modern Zoo C. A Frozen Zoo D. Protecting Animals
第二节：信息匹配 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
The people below are now traveling in the U.S., and now looking for a park to visit. After the description of these people, there is information about six American parks A-F. Decide which park would be most suitable for the person mentioned in questions 61-65 and then mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra paragraph about one park which you don't need to use.
_______61. Lisa is a naturalist. She loves the outdoors and is fascinated with adventure and all types of wildlife. Along with enjoying wildlife she also has a passion for backpacking and hiking. Lisa is also interested in photography and will climb as high as needed to get that great shot.
_______62. Martin, who is specialized in geography, would like to see a park which is filled with exciting discoveries of facts about the earth movements. He also hopes to observe the changes in rocks due to time and erosion.
_______63. Kelly, just graduated from university. Her major is archeology. She is interested in ancient finds such as: fossils of animals and plant life, old pottery and especially things dating back to the prehistoric age. Kelly hopes to unearth something significant so she can develop her career.
_______64. Simon is one for excitement. He enjoys all out-door sports especially white water rafting. He has been searching for a park that can fulfill his taste for adventure. And at the same time he can appreciate the beautiful sceneries along the way.
_______65. Chris is looking for something famous perhaps a "superstar" of parks. He is interested in everything from wildlife to Earth activities. He hopes he can find a park which can offer the most to him.
A. This park is a vast natural museum, and it is recognized as the lowest point in the U.S. All the great divisions of geological(地质的) time, the eras and most of their subdivisions, are represented（描写） in the rocks of the mountains bordering the great valley. These rocks and the land forms tell a story of endless changes in the earth's crust（地壳） - vast depositions, contortions, tilting, alternate risings and lowering, faulting and intense heats and pressures that changed the very nature of some rocks.
B. This park protects a large deposit（存放） of fossil（化石） dinosaur bones--remains of the so-called "terrible lizards" that lived millions of years ago. The dinosaurs weren't really lizards, and most of them weren't even terrible. But some of the first dinosaur fossils ever found were huge bones and teeth, very lizard-like except for their size, and so the idea of monstrous lizards was born. Today, many ideas about dinosaurs are changing, and the fossils at this park continue to help us learn more about these fascinating animals.
C. With elevations ranging from 8,000 feet in the wet, grassy valleys to 14,259 feet at the weather-ravaged top of Long's Peak, a visitor to the park has opportunities for countless breathtaking experiences and adventures. A large variety of animals will delight wildlife-watchers of all ages. Wildflower-lovers are never disappointed in June and July when the meadows and hillsides are splashed with botanical color. 359 miles of trail offer endless opportunities to hikers, backpackers and horseback riders. So far to find 60 peaks rising above 12,000 feet challenge intrepid hikers and climbers.
D. The world's largest concentration of natural stone arches is found in this park. Over 1500 of these 'miracles of nature' grace the 73,000-acre area. And it is famous for the red arches of Entrada sandstone that occur there in great profusion A 41-mile round-trip paved road in the park leads to the major sights, including Balanced Rock, Skyline Arch, and the Fiery Furnace. But there are also many other striking rock formations scattered over the park's 73,000 scenic acres.
E. Yellowstone is the oldest park in the U.S. park system and is its flagship. Visitors come to experience the park's restless geology; to see grizzlies, gray wolves, and herds of buffalo. Its turbulent（狂暴的） landscape—which remains among the most geologically active lands on the planet, with steam-spewing geysers（间歇温泉）, gurgling fumaroles, and frequent earthquakes—was protected as the world's first national park in 1872. Yellowstone and the huge tracts of national-forest land that ring it comprise one of the world's last intact temperate ecosystems—all its major species of plants and animals are still present.
F. This park has a Canyon 200 miles long and about a mile deep. Along the ride you follow the Colorado River which carved this massive canyon. At times the canyon is from 5 to 15 miles across. The Colorado River continues to shape and gouge its way through the canyon where about 90 species of mammals（哺乳动物） and some 290 species of birds live. River rafting along the Colorado River has different options for people. You can go on long trips with organizations or even take a smooth ride down the river with a picnic style lunch.

Writing(1):
Recently we have had a heated discussion on whether people should keep pets at home in cities. Some students think it’s a good idea to keep pets because many old people who live alone at home can get some comfort from pets. Besides. Getting along well with animals will make our life interesting. On the contrary, the other students are against the idea. In their opinions, if too people keep pets at home, it is bad for the environment. What is worse, pets may make too much noise and even attack people.
Writing(2):
Internet bars are popular today, especially among young people, for the net opens large windows to the outside world. On one hand, the Internet has brought people great convenience in getting information, entertainment and contact with others. On the other hand, it has some problems. It is also true that some bars are offering unhealthy programs that involve violence and sex. As a result, most middle school students are easy to be influenced. Some kids are so lost in playing games in the bars that they forget the time to go back home, and their health is in an extremely bad condition.
To avoid checks by the police, the managers sometimes shut the doors and close many people in a small room. When there is a fire or other danger, people cannot find way out. So I suggest Internet bars be under strict supervision and young kids be guided to surf the web. Only in this way can Internet bars be well used by people.

In fact, asked to describe each other back in those days, Sue and Larry both came up with the adjective: “nice”.
On Sept.11, 2004, after 35 years, the high school friends were about to find out how “nice” could be. Larry was looking for another friend with whom he went to high school through Classmates.com, a service that reconnects high school friends through e-mails. That friend suggested he call Sue.

With that one call, Sue, who divorced in 1985 after five years of marriage, and Larry, who divorced in 1997, began calling and e-mailing each other daily. A month late Sue flew to Chicago. Larry and Sue hugged and fried when they met at the airport. They were like two lovers separated for years.

There’s a new zoo in Louisiana, US, which has many of the usual attractions. Like most zoos, its goal is to protect wild animals and educate the public. However, the Louisiana Audubon Nature Center is more than a wildlife center. It has a Planetarium ( 天文馆 ), a forest, and a special frozen zoo that rarely has visitors.
Saving species from dying out is the main goal of the Nature Center. Tourists visit the public areas of the Nature Center. But scientists work behind the public areas. They use the place to prevent animals dying out. They hope that the frozen woo will one day be able to save and keep all the animals alive on out planet. In the frozen zoo, there aren’t any live animals in cage. Instead, it has live cells in tiny building blocks of the animals—in liquid nitrogen ( 氮 ) bottles. Liquid nitrogen is very cold and it keeps the cells perfect so the cells should be safe for hundreds of years. The frozen zoo has over 1.000 different species that are put in nitrogen. If one of these species becomes endangered, the scientists can unfreeze the cells and bring the species back.
Many animals are struggling to survive. But their future is not that worrying, because there are more and more zoos joining the frozen zoo project. And scientists are also working to save habitats. Hopefully we will be able to save all species from dying out and give them a safe place to live.
56. What makes Audubon Nature center a special zoo?
A. Protecting wild animals. B. Educating the public.
C. Being built in Louisiana. D. Having a special frozen zoo
57. What’s the main purpose of the Nature Center in Louisiana?
A. To save species from dying out. B. To freeze animals.
C. To conduct scientific experiments. D. To entertain the public.

rows of buildings for animals to live in.

rows of cages for animals to live in
rows of frozen zoos
59. Which of the following statements is true?
The goal of the new zoo is to make money
The scientist hope that the new zoo can save and keep the animals alive that can not be alive in other zoos
The future of many animals is so worrying.
The Louisiana Audubon Nature Center is different from others in that it has a Planetarium, a forest, and a special frozen zoo.
60. The best title is “_____”.
A. A Wildlife Center B. A Modern Zoo C. A Frozen Zoo D. Protecting Animals

The people below are now traveling in the U.S., and now looking for a park to visit. After the description of these people, there is information about six American parks A-F. Decide which park would be most suitable for the person mentioned in questions 61-65 and then mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra paragraph about one park which you don't need to use.
_______61. Lisa is a naturalist. She loves the outdoors and is fascinated with adventure and all types of wildlife. Along with enjoying wildlife she also has a passion for backpacking and hiking. Lisa is also interested in photography and will climb as high as needed to get that great shot.
_______62. Martin, who is specialized in geography, would like to see a park which is filled with exciting discoveries of facts about the earth movements. He also hopes to observe the changes in rocks due to time and erosion.
_______63. Kelly, just graduated from university. Her major is archeology. She is interested in ancient finds such as: fossils of animals and plant life, old pottery and especially things dating back to the prehistoric age. Kelly hopes to unearth something significant so she can develop her career.
_______64. Simon is one for excitement. He enjoys all out-door sports especially white water rafting. He has been searching for a park that can fulfill his taste for adventure. And at the same time he can appreciate the beautiful sceneries along the way.
_______65. Chris is looking for something famous perhaps a "superstar" of parks. He is interested in everything from wildlife to Earth activities. He hopes he can find a park which can offer the most to him.
A. This park is a vast natural museum, and it is recognized as the lowest point in the U.S. All the great divisions of geological(地质的) time, the eras and most of their subdivisions, are represented（描写） in the rocks of the mountains bordering the great valley. These rocks and the land forms tell a story of endless changes in the earth's crust（地壳） - vast depositions, contortions, tilting, alternate risings and lowering, faulting and intense heats and pressures that changed the very nature of some rocks.
B. This park protects a large deposit（存放） of fossil（化石） dinosaur bones--remains of the so-called "terrible lizards" that lived millions of years ago. The dinosaurs weren't really lizards, and most of them weren't even terrible. But some of the first dinosaur fossils ever found were huge bones and teeth, very lizard-like except for their size, and so the idea of monstrous lizards was born. Today, many ideas about dinosaurs are changing, and the fossils at this park continue to help us learn more about these fascinating animals.
C. With elevations ranging from 8,000 feet in the wet, grassy valleys to 14,259 feet at the weather-ravaged top of Long's Peak, a visitor to the park has opportunities for countless breathtaking experiences and adventures. A large variety of animals will delight wildlife-watchers of all ages. Wildflower-lovers are never disappointed in June and July when the meadows and hillsides are splashed with botanical color. 359 miles of trail offer endless opportunities to hikers, backpackers and horseback riders. So far to find 60 peaks rising above 12,000 feet challenge intrepid hikers and climbers.
D. The world's largest concentration of natural stone arches is found in this park. Over 1500 of these 'miracles of nature' grace the 73,000-acre area. And it is famous for the red arches of Entrada sandstone that occur there in great profusion A 41-mile round-trip paved road in the park leads to the major sights, including Balanced Rock, Skyline Arch, and the Fiery Furnace. But there are also many other striking rock formations scattered over the park's 73,000 scenic acres.
E. Yellowstone is the oldest park in the U.S. park system and is its flagship. Visitors come to experience the park's restless geology; to see grizzlies, gray wolves, and herds of buffalo. Its turbulent（狂暴的） landscape—which remains among the most geologically active lands on the planet, with steam-spewing geysers（间歇温泉）, gurgling fumaroles, and frequent earthquakes—was protected as the world's first national park in 1872. Yellowstone and the huge tracts of national-forest land that ring it comprise one of the world's last intact temperate ecosystems—all its major species of plants and animals are still present.
F. This park has a Canyon 200 miles long and about a mile deep. Along the ride you follow the Colorado River which carved this massive canyon. At times the canyon is from 5 to 15 miles across. The Colorado River continues to shape and gouge its way through the canyon where about 90 species of mammals（哺乳动物） and some 290 species of birds live. River rafting along the Colorado River has different options for people. You can go on long trips with organizations or even take a smooth ride down the river with a picnic style lunch.

Writing(1):
Recently we have had a heated discussion on whether people should keep pets at home in cities. Some students think it’s a good idea to keep pets because many old people who live alone at home can get some comfort from pets. Besides. Getting along well with animals will make our life interesting. On the contrary, the other students are against the idea. In their opinions, if too people keep pets at home, it is bad for the environment. What is worse, pets may make too much noise and even attack people.
Writing(2):
Internet bars are popular today, especially among young people, for the net opens large windows to the outside world. On one hand, the Internet has brought people great convenience in getting information, entertainment and contact with others. On the other hand, it has some problems. It is also true that some bars are offering unhealthy programs that involve violence and sex. As a result, most middle school students are easy to be influenced. Some kids are so lost in playing games in the bars that they forget the time to go back home, and their health is in an extremely bad condition.
To avoid checks by the police, the managers sometimes shut the doors and close many people in a small room. When there is a fire or other danger, people cannot find way out. So I suggest Internet bars be under strict supervision and young kids be guided to surf the web. Only in this way can Internet bars be well used by people.
