第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
A
“Have you ever been out on a boat and felt it lifted up by a wave Or have you jumped in the water and felt the rush of energy as waves came over you ” asked Jamie Taylor of the Wave Energy Group at the University of Edinburgh . “There is certainly a lot of energy in waves ,” he said .
Scientists are working to use that energy to make electricity . Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean “The wind starts out by making little ripples(涟漪) , but if they keep on blowing , those ripples get bigger and turn into waves ,” Taylor said . “Waves are one of nature’s ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey .”
When waves come toward the shore , people can set up dams to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine(涡轮机) . The turbine can then power an electrical generator to produce electricity .
“The resource is huge ,”said Janet Swain of the Worldwatch Institute . “We will never run out of wave power .” Besides , wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources , such as oil or coal . Oceans cover three-quarters of the Earth’s surface—that would make wave power seem ideal for creating energy throughout the world , though there are some weak points yet to overcome .
Swain said that wave power still costs too much money . She also said that its effects on sea animals are still unknown . What is more , wave power could affect fishing and boat traffic .
Traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may someday run out . “Demand for energy to power out TVs and computers , drive our cars , and heat and cool our homes is rising rapidly throughout the world ,” Swain said . In the future when you turn on a light , an ocean wave could be providing the electricity !
56. The writer uses the two questions at the beginning of the passage to _______ .
A. test the readers’ knowledge about waves
B. draw the readers’ attention to the topic
C. show Jamie Taylor’s importance
D. invite the readers to answer them
57. The underlined phrase “picking up” (paragraph 2 ) is closest in meaning to ______ .
A. starting again B. speeding up C. gathering D. improving
58. We can make better use of wave energy if we ________ .
A. shorten its journey to thousands of homes
B. build more small power stations on the oceans
C. reduce the cost of turning it into electric power
D. quicken the steps of producing electricity
59. It can be inferred that some day we might not worry about ________ .
A. air pollution B. out boat traffic C. our power supply D. our supply of sea fish
B
We know that many animals do not stay in one place . Birds , fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time . They move for different reasons : most of them move to find food more easily , but others move to get away from places that are too crowded .
When cold weather comes , many birds move to warmer places to find food . Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed . The most famous migration(迁移) is probably the migration of the fish , which is called “salmon” . This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water . There it spends its life . When it is old , it returns to its birthplace in fresh water . Then it gives birth and dies there . In northern Europe , there is a kind of mouse . They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded . They move down to the low land . Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside , and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea .
Recently , scientists have studied the migration of a king of lobster(龙虾) . Every year , when the season of bad weather arrives , the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean . Nobody knows why they do this , and nobody knows where they go .
So sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another , but at other time we don’t . Maybe living things just like to travel .
60. Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to_________ .
A. give birth B. enjoy warmer weather C. find food more easily D. find beautiful places
61. The fish called “salmon” spends a long life in _________ .
A. salt water B. rivers C. fresh water D. its birthplace
62. The mice in northern Europe move when _________ .
A. they give birth B. the weather is bad
C. the place gets too crowded D. they haven’t enough food
63. The lobsters move _________ .
A. to the fresh water B. to the sea floor C. at a certain time D. to find more food
64. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Animals move in order to find food more easily .
B. The migration of the fish called “salmon” is the most famous migration .
C. Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel .
D. Sometimes we know why and how living things move from one place to another , but sometimes we don’t .

“If there is one thing I’m sure about , it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers . It is not that newspapers are a necessity .Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio . Many buy a paper only on Saturday of Sunday . But for most people a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation .
The nature of what is news may change . What basically makes news is what affects our lives – and the big political stories , the report of the wars earthquakes and other disasters , will continue much the same . I think there will be more report of scientific research , though . It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives , like genetic engineering . In the future , I think there will be more report of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do –as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are .
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from the Fleet Street and printed out in our own home . In fact , I’m pretty sure that is how it will happen in future . You will probably be able to choose from a menu , making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read –say , sports and international news .
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media . They actually feed off each other . Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers , but that hasn’t happened . What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air . And as for the Internet , it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen .”
69. In the writer’s opinion , in the future ________ .
A. more big political affairs , wars and disasters will make news
B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses(出版社) any longer
C. newspapers will cover more scientific research
D. more and more people will read newspapers
70. From the passage , we can infer that ___________ .
A. newspapers will win the competition among the different media
B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C. television will take the place of newspapers
D. the writer believes some media will die out
71. The phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means _________ .
A. depend on B. live on C. fight with D. kill off
72. What would be the best title for the passage
A. The Best Way to Get News B. The Changes of Media
C. Make Your Own Newspaper D. The Future of Newspaper
E
A bug flies by a plant . This plant has a pretty red flower . The bug smells something wonderful . So it goes closer and closer to the flower . Then it sees some leaves on the plant . They are long and green and good to eat , but look strange . They are folded together . The bug flies over and sits on one . Oops ! That is the end of the bug .
This poor bug has landed on a plant that eats bugs ! Meat-eating plants use tricks to trap bugs .
Some have pretty flowers . They look so nice and smell so sweet that bugs fly right into the plants . But there is no way they can get out . The plant keeps the bug there . It uses the bug as food . That’s how the plant lives .
There are many kinds of plants that eat bugs . Each plant has a trick to catch them . On one plant the leaves snap together when the bug lands on them . Other plants have sticky leaves . These leaves roll up with the bugs stuck inside them , such as the pitcher plant .
One kind of plant has little hairs on its leaves . They hold anything that comes along so that it can not get away . Then the leaves close upon the food .
You can keep a plant like this in your home . Don’t worry . You won’t have to catch bugs to feed it . Just go to a flower store . You can get special food there . If not , you can just give it bits of meat .
73. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph “Oops ! That’s the end of the bug .” most probably means _________ .
A. Oh ! That’s the end of its story B. Ah ! Its life ends
C. Oh , bad ! It disappears suddenly D. Dear me ! It slides away
74. What this passage intends to introduce to us is _________ .
A. the bugs that like sweet-smelling flowers B. the plants having pretty red flowers
C. the end of the bug D. the plants that eat bugs
75. We can infer from the passage that the bug referred to is __________ .
A. a certain kind of plant B. some kind of sugar
C. a tiny insect D. something sweet

Most students think that there are many advantages in having frequent examinations . They believe that examinations can help us know how we have studied and find out what we haven’t mastered in our studies so that we can improve the way of learning . Besides , examinations can encourage us to study even harder , so we can make more progress .
Some students , however , complain that too many examinations will make students feel tired and tense all the time . As a result , some of us may lose interest in studies . Moreover , we have no time to take part in any sports , which will do harm to our health .And there is no time left for us to develop our own interest .
In my opinion , ................

“Have you ever been out on a boat and felt it lifted up by a wave Or have you jumped in the water and felt the rush of energy as waves came over you ” asked Jamie Taylor of the Wave Energy Group at the University of Edinburgh . “There is certainly a lot of energy in waves ,” he said .
Scientists are working to use that energy to make electricity . Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean “The wind starts out by making little ripples(涟漪) , but if they keep on blowing , those ripples get bigger and turn into waves ,” Taylor said . “Waves are one of nature’s ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey .”
When waves come toward the shore , people can set up dams to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine(涡轮机) . The turbine can then power an electrical generator to produce electricity .
“The resource is huge ,”said Janet Swain of the Worldwatch Institute . “We will never run out of wave power .” Besides , wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources , such as oil or coal . Oceans cover three-quarters of the Earth’s surface—that would make wave power seem ideal for creating energy throughout the world , though there are some weak points yet to overcome .
Swain said that wave power still costs too much money . She also said that its effects on sea animals are still unknown . What is more , wave power could affect fishing and boat traffic .
Traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may someday run out . “Demand for energy to power out TVs and computers , drive our cars , and heat and cool our homes is rising rapidly throughout the world ,” Swain said . In the future when you turn on a light , an ocean wave could be providing the electricity !
56. The writer uses the two questions at the beginning of the passage to _______ .
A. test the readers’ knowledge about waves
B. draw the readers’ attention to the topic
C. show Jamie Taylor’s importance
D. invite the readers to answer them
57. The underlined phrase “picking up” (paragraph 2 ) is closest in meaning to ______ .
A. starting again B. speeding up C. gathering D. improving
58. We can make better use of wave energy if we ________ .
A. shorten its journey to thousands of homes
B. build more small power stations on the oceans
C. reduce the cost of turning it into electric power
D. quicken the steps of producing electricity
59. It can be inferred that some day we might not worry about ________ .
A. air pollution B. out boat traffic C. our power supply D. our supply of sea fish
B
We know that many animals do not stay in one place . Birds , fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time . They move for different reasons : most of them move to find food more easily , but others move to get away from places that are too crowded .
When cold weather comes , many birds move to warmer places to find food . Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed . The most famous migration(迁移) is probably the migration of the fish , which is called “salmon” . This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water . There it spends its life . When it is old , it returns to its birthplace in fresh water . Then it gives birth and dies there . In northern Europe , there is a kind of mouse . They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded . They move down to the low land . Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside , and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea .
Recently , scientists have studied the migration of a king of lobster(龙虾) . Every year , when the season of bad weather arrives , the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean . Nobody knows why they do this , and nobody knows where they go .
So sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another , but at other time we don’t . Maybe living things just like to travel .
60. Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to_________ .
A. give birth B. enjoy warmer weather C. find food more easily D. find beautiful places
61. The fish called “salmon” spends a long life in _________ .
A. salt water B. rivers C. fresh water D. its birthplace
62. The mice in northern Europe move when _________ .
A. they give birth B. the weather is bad
C. the place gets too crowded D. they haven’t enough food
63. The lobsters move _________ .
A. to the fresh water B. to the sea floor C. at a certain time D. to find more food
64. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Animals move in order to find food more easily .
B. The migration of the fish called “salmon” is the most famous migration .
C. Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel .
D. Sometimes we know why and how living things move from one place to another , but sometimes we don’t .

“If there is one thing I’m sure about , it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers . It is not that newspapers are a necessity .Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio . Many buy a paper only on Saturday of Sunday . But for most people a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation .
The nature of what is news may change . What basically makes news is what affects our lives – and the big political stories , the report of the wars earthquakes and other disasters , will continue much the same . I think there will be more report of scientific research , though . It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives , like genetic engineering . In the future , I think there will be more report of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do –as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are .
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from the Fleet Street and printed out in our own home . In fact , I’m pretty sure that is how it will happen in future . You will probably be able to choose from a menu , making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read –say , sports and international news .
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media . They actually feed off each other . Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers , but that hasn’t happened . What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air . And as for the Internet , it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen .”
69. In the writer’s opinion , in the future ________ .
A. more big political affairs , wars and disasters will make news
B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses(出版社) any longer
C. newspapers will cover more scientific research
D. more and more people will read newspapers
70. From the passage , we can infer that ___________ .
A. newspapers will win the competition among the different media
B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C. television will take the place of newspapers
D. the writer believes some media will die out
71. The phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means _________ .
A. depend on B. live on C. fight with D. kill off
72. What would be the best title for the passage
A. The Best Way to Get News B. The Changes of Media
C. Make Your Own Newspaper D. The Future of Newspaper

They are long and green and good to eat , but look strange . They are folded together . The bug flies over and sits on one . Oops ! That is the end of the bug .
This poor bug has landed on a plant that eats bugs ! Meat-eating plants use tricks to trap bugs .
Some have pretty flowers . They look so nice and smell so sweet that bugs fly right into the plants . But there is no way they can get out . The plant keeps the bug there . It uses the bug as food . That’s how the plant lives .
There are many kinds of plants that eat bugs . Each plant has a trick to catch them . On one plant the leaves snap together when the bug lands on them . Other plants have sticky leaves . These leaves roll up with the bugs stuck inside them , such as the pitcher plant .
One kind of plant has little hairs on its leaves . They hold anything that comes along so that it can not get away . Then the leaves close upon the food .
You can keep a plant like this in your home . Don’t worry . You won’t have to catch bugs to feed it . Just go to a flower store . You can get special food there . If not , you can just give it bits of meat .
73. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph “Oops ! That’s the end of the bug .” most probably means _________ .
A. Oh ! That’s the end of its story B. Ah ! Its life ends
C. Oh , bad ! It disappears suddenly D. Dear me ! It slides away
74. What this passage intends to introduce to us is _________ .
A. the bugs that like sweet-smelling flowers B. the plants having pretty red flowers

Most students think that there are many advantages in having frequent examinations . They believe that examinations can help us know how we have studied and find out what we haven’t mastered in our studies so that we can improve the way of learning . Besides , examinations can encourage us to study even harder , so we can make more progress .
Some students , however , complain that too many examinations will make students feel tired and tense all the time . As a result , some of us may lose interest in studies . Moreover , we have no time to take part in any sports , which will do harm to our health .And there is no time left for us to develop our own interest .
In my opinion , ................
