When she began sleeping more, he just paced restlessly up and down the hallway outside her room. Soon, when she no longer watched television and had fewer 42 moments, I began sp

21、ending more of my volunteer time with Bill.He talked about having worked as a carpenter and they 43 their retirement by traveling until Connie got sick. But Bill could not express his 44 about his wifes being dying.One day, I got him on the 45 of women and how we need romance and love letters in our

22、 lives.“Do you tell Connie you love her?” I asked (knowing his answer), and he looked at me as if I was crazy. He looked at me 46 I was crazy. “I dont have to,” he said. “She knows I do !”“Im sure she 47 ,” I said,“but she needs to hear what she has 48 to you all these years.”Two days later, Connie

27、 fascinated by the pyramids in Egypt. A few years ago I braved a long queue and climbed through a narrow passage to reach the main chamber deep inside one of them. Like millions of other tourists I marvelled at stoned-walled rooms full of the magic of this ancient civilisation.But popularity might b

28、e the collapse (崩溃) of such archaeological treasures.Take Tutankhamuns tomb in the Valley of the Kings, for example. It lay untouched for more than 3,000 years until the British archaeologist Howard Carter uncovered it in 1922. Now more than 1,000 people a day walk through it.But as more and more pe

29、ople visit, the temperature and humidity (湿度) inside the tomb change. As a result, the beautifully decorated plaster (胶泥) is coming away from the rock.In order to preserve its heritage, a replica of the monument is being opened about one km away from the actual burial site. Specialists have recorded

30、 every detail of Tutankhamuns tomb and used the data to recreate it.Adam Lowe from the organisation behind the project, Factum Arte, says the copy is identical to the original. He believes visitors will want to “become part of the force that protects it rather than a force that is leading to its des

31、truction”, so wont mind seeing a replica.But for historian Tom Holland, a copy is still a copy. He believes that although preservation is important, there is something unique about places like Tutankhamuns tomb.He says it was built “by people who believed in the world of the spirits, the dead and th

32、e supernatural. You dont have to believe in a god or gods to feel a place is consecrated and has a particular quality that cant be reproduced.”What about you: would you visit a replica of a monument rather than the original to help preserve it?51. The author mentions Tutankhamens tomb to show .A. it

33、s marvelous ancient civilizationB. its popularity among touristsC. its inner beautiful decorationD. its damage caused by human activities52. The underlined word “replica” (in Paragraph 5) means “ ”.A. copyB. tombC. palaceD. door53. The critics who are against the project hold the view that .A. visit

34、ors will mind itB. it cant be replacedC. its inner beautiful decorationD. its damage caused by human activities54. What is the authors tone towards the project?A. Favorable.B. Doubtful.C. Objective.D. Negtive.BThe secret of domestic happiness is having two daughters, according to a study.In a findin

35、g that will surprise many parents, researchers concluded that two girls are unlikely to fight, will play nicely together, rarely annoy their parents and tend not to wind each other up. Thsy also make little noise, seldom ignore each other and are more likely to confide in their mother or father, sci

36、entists claim. But doubling the number of daughters is a recipe for disaster, with parents of four girls the least happy with their domestic set-up.Researchers questioned thousands of mothers and fathers of under-16s to come up with the recipe for a harmonious family life. Those with two girls were

37、most likely to say their children wee easy to reason with, helped around the house and generally got on well with each other. But parents of four girls reported trying to end an average of four fights a day. One in three frequently found it hard to cope, and two-thirds had buy a bigger house or car

38、to accommodate their family. Overall, mothers and fathers with four children of any gender were more likely to find family life a struggle, with mornings, mealtimes and bedtimes the most common source of conflict. And parents of large families more often admitted neglecting one or more of their chil

39、dren on occasion or struggling to share their attention equally.After two girls, the second most appealing combination of children was one child and one boy, with 86 per cent of parents saying their little boy and little girl were genuine friends. Two siblings of the opposite genders rarely argue ov

40、er toys and are easy to reason with, but suffer from a lack of shared interests as they grow up, the researchers claim.The third most favorable combination was two boys, with parents saying their sons pay each other lots of attention and are close friendsbut are less likely to donfide in their mum o

41、r dad as they grow up.55. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means “ ”.A. if you have more children, youll enjoy a happy lifeB. 4 daughters are likely to result in an unhappy familyC. the numbers of daughters can decide family happinessD. a multi-child family can benefit from delicious meals56.

42、In a 4-child family, parents are more likely to .A. get equal attention from their childrenB. see shared interests among their childrenC. have heavy financial burdens to take onD. enjoy the comfort of a harmonious mealtime57. What 2 children of the same or opposite genders share is that .A. they oft

43、en invite trouble for their parentsB. they will have complete trust in their parentsC. they can have lots of common interests D. they can both develop a real friendship with each other58. The passage is mainly written to .A. prove girls are easier to raise than boysB. tell readers about a research f

44、inding C. share the sorrow and joys of being parentsD. compare the difference between boys and girlsCThe turning point of my life was my decision to give up a promising career in business to study music. My parents, although sympathetic, disapproved of music as an occupation. This was understandable

45、, I thought, in view of my family background. My grandfather taught music for nearly forty years at Spring Hill College, and it was only the threiftiness (节俭) of my grandmother that kept the wolf at bay.As a consequence, My parents insisted upon college instead of a music school. Before my graduatio

46、n from Columbia University, the family met with severe fanacial difficulty and I felt it my duty to leave college and take a job. Thus was I launched upon a business careerwhich I always think of as the wasted years. Now, I do not for a moment mean to disparage (贬低) business; my whole point is that

47、it was not for me. My one ambition was to save enough money to quit and go to Europe to study music.I used to get up at dawn to practice before I left for downtown, upsetting my poor mother by having a hasty breakfast at the last minute. Instead of lunching with my business associates, I would seek

48、out some cheap caf, order a mean meal and draw my harmony exercise. I continued to make money, and finally, bit by bit, accumulated enough to enable me to go abroad.The family being once more wealthy, and my help no longer necessary. I resigned from my position and feeling like a man released from j

49、ail, sailed for Europe. I stayed four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working before and enjoyed every minute of it. Enjoyed is too mild a word. I walked on air. I really lived. I was a free man and I was doing what I loved to do and what I was meant to do. If I had stayed in busines

50、s, I might be a really wealthy man today. But I do not believe I would have made a success of living. I would have given up all those inner satiosfaction that money can never buy and that are too often sacrificed when a mans primary goal is fanacial success. Money is a wonderful thing, but it is pos

51、sible to pay too high a price on it.59. Why did the authors parents object to his decision to study music?A. His family was not well off.B. He had a good family background.C. His parents were not fond of music.D. He modeled himself after his grandfather.60. What caused the author to leave college an

52、d take a job?A. Expectations of his parents.B. The financial crisis of the family.C. His ambition for a business career.D. His dissatisfation with the college.61. It was possible for the author to go to Europe to study music because .A. he kept practicing musicB. he was released from prision C. he u

53、sed to lunch with other businessmenD. his financial condition was improved62. What does the author intend to tell us through the story?A. Whaterver you do, you must do it well.B. Wherever you go, you can achieve your dreams.C. Whoever you are, you should follow your inner voice.D. However poor you a

54、re, you deserve equal treatment.DLike most creatures on earth, humans come equipped with a circadian clock (生物钟), a roughly 24-hour internal timer that keeps our sleep patterns in agreement with our planet, at least until genetics, age and our personal habits get in the way. Even though the average

55、adult needs eight hours of sleep per night, there are “short-sleepers,” who need far less, and morning people, who, research shows, often come from families of other morning people. Then theres the rest of us who rely on alarm clocks.For those who fantasize about greeting the dawn, there is hope. Sl

56、eep experts say that with a little training, well actually, a lot of traning, most people can reset their circadian clocks. But its not as simple as forcing yourself to go to bed earlier, for you cant make a wide-awake brain sleep. It requires inducing (诱导) a sort of jet lag without leaving your tim

57、e zone. And sticking it out until your body clock resets itself. And then not resetting it again.To start, move up your wake-up time by 20 minutes a day. If you regularly rise at 8 a.m., but really want to get moving at 6 a.m., set the alarm for 7:40 on Monday. The next day, set it for 7:20 and so o

58、n. Then, after you wake up, dont stay in bed. Hit yourself with light. In theory, youll gradually get sleepy about 20 minutes earlier each night, and you can facilitate the transition by avoiding extra light exposure from computers or televisions as you near bedtime.But recalibrating your inner cloc

59、k requires more commitment than many people care to give. For some, its almost impossible. Very early risers and longtime night owls (猫头鹰) have a hard time ever changing. Night-shift workers also struggle because they dont get the environmental and social cues that help adjust the circadian clock.Be

60、sides computer screens, the biggest trouble for an aspiring person is weekend. Staying up later on Friday or sleeping in on sends the brain an entirely new set of scheduling priorities. By Monday, a 6 a.m. alarm will feel like 4 a.m. If the old phase was entrained for a long time, the biology has a

61、kind of memory. In other words, it takes self-discipline.63. According to the passage, a circadian clock usually .A. regulates ones sleep patternsB. affects ones personal habitsC. determines ones sleep qualitiesD. replaces an alarm clock64. For those who want to get up earlier, .A. there is no possi

62、bilityB. it takes little effortC. it needs to creat a feeling of jet lagD. the best way is to go to bed earlier65. To form the habit of getting up 2 hours eralier, youd better .A. get up immediately you wake upB. avoid light exposure when you wake upC. start by setting your alram clock for exactly t

63、he timeD. force yourself to go to bed as eraly as possible66. Which of the following factors may affect ones change of a circadian clock most?A. Light.B. Computer.C. Television.D. Weekend.EFor 10 years, Ive been teaching animal behavior and conservation biology at the Boulder County Prison in Colora

64、do. The course, mainly dealing with animal science, is one of the most popular in the prison. Prisoners have to earn the right to enroll (注册学习) and they work hard to get in.One reason the course is so popular is that many prisoners find it easier to connect with animals than with people, because ani

65、mals dont judge them. Many of the prisoners had lived with dogs, cats and other companion animals who were their best friends. They trust and empathize with animals with animals in ways they dont with humans.Nevertheless, people, they have a misunderstanding of how animals treat one another. The pri

66、soners have often had enough of “nature red in tooth and claw”: many believe that their own “animal behavior” is what got them into trouble in the first place. I teach that though there is competition and aggression in the animal kingdom, there is alsoa lot of cooperation, empathy (共鸣) and sympathy.

67、 I explain that these behaviors are examples ofwild justice,and this idea makes them rethink what it means to be an animal. Many of the students desire to build healthy relationships, and they find that the class helps them. I use examples of the social behavior of group-living animals such as wolve

68、s as a model for developing and maintaining friendships among individuals who must work together for their own good and also for the good of the group.Its clear that science inspires the students: our exchanges rival those that Ive had in university classes. It also gives them hope. I know some stud

69、ents have gone back into education after their release while others have gone to work for humane societies or contributed time and money to conservation organizations. One went on to receive a masters degree in nature writing. Science and humane education help the prisoners connect with values that

70、they otherwise would not have done. It opens the door to understanding, trust, cooperation, community and hope. Theres a large untapped population of individuals to whom science could mean a lot, if only they could get exposure to it. The class helps me, too. I get as much out of it as the students

71、and it has made me a better teacher on the outside.67. Why do many prisoners find it easier to get along with animals?A. Because animals dont judge them.B. Because animals are their best friends.C. Because animals are more sympathetic.D. Because animals are their good companions.68. What can be lear

72、nt about “animal behavior” according to Paragraph 3?A. It causes much trouble.B. It means blood and cruelty.C. It leads people to go to prison.D. It includes both bad and good behaviors.69. The author used wovles as an example to .A. explain the cruel side of group-living animalsB. provide the priso

73、ners with more knowledgeC. help the prisoners understand the importance of cooperationD. inform the prisoners that animals are cleverer than humans70. What is the passage mainly about?A. Relationship between animals and prisoners.B. Benefits of animal science course in the prison.C. Difficulties in

74、getting in animal science course.D. Development of animal science in the prison.第四部分：书面表达 （共两节，满分50分）第一节：完成句子（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列各小题，根据汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后。例：_was that the young player performed extremely well in the table tennis tournament.
