24、中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Do you still remember the interesting question: why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more concerned with how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road. Millions of animal

25、s die each year on US roads, the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat exist in the US today. The main reason? Road kill. “Ecopassages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. These

26、ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid human conflicts, said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Conservation Society.But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage tha

27、t went under a highway. This showed that the lion used the passage. Builders of some ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders and grizzly bears are using the bridges and

28、underpasses. The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around.You might see an animal overpass!51. The writer uses the example of ocelots to show that _.A. wild animals have become more dangerousB. the driving conditions have improved greatlyC. the measure

29、for protecting wildlife fails to workD. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents52. From the news story, we know an ecopassage is _ .A. an underground path for cars B. a fence built for the safety of the areaC. a bridge for animals to get over a river D. a pass for animals to cro

30、ss the road53. When the writer says that animals seem to be catching on, he means _.A. animals begin to realize the dangers on the roadB. animals begin to learn to use ecopassagesC. animals are crossing the road in groupsD. animals are increasing in number54. The writer asks visitors and drivers to

31、look around when traveling because .A. wild animals may attack cars B. wild animals may jam the roadC. they may see wild animals in the park D. they may see wild animals on ecopassagesB When Flora Kahlos paintings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as a ribbon (丝带) around a bomb.

32、 Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her Lime. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time. Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City, Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻痹症 )at the age of seven. Her spine(脊柱) became bent as she grew

33、 older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering,

34、Kahlo taught herself to paint. In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Riveras strong influences on Kahlos style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband. Unfortunately, he

35、r works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953. For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlos works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain internat

36、ional fame at last.55. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?A. a far better artistB a much more famous person C. a much stronger personD. a far more gifted artist56. The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by _.A. back injuries B. her bent spineC. polio D.

37、the operations she had57. Kahlos style had become increasingly independent since the _.A. 1930s B. 1970s C. 1950s D. 1940s58. What is authors attitude toward Kahlo?A. Devotion B. Encouragement C. Ironic D. SympathyC In the 1960s Walt Disney pictured in the mind a future utopian city with underground

38、 roads and a climate-controlled round roof. The real community of Celebration, Florida, built in 1999, applies the social and environmental goals of both Disney and the New Urbanism movement.Disney and the New Urbanism have imagined communities that promote social and local communication. Celebratio

39、n has a central Market Street district to reduce traffic and encourage social contacts. The idea is that if the downtown area is neatly and closely ranked, people will walk and meet their neighbors. Downtown events like arts festivals also bring citizens together. Narrow, tree-lined streets are traf

40、fic calmwith slower speed limitsto encourage bicycling and walking. Moreover, housing in Celebration includes both single- and multi-family houses that encourages socialization. Apartment buildings are located close to downtown, and houses are built close together with small yards. They feature entr

41、ance halls to encourage citizens to socialize. Many aspects of that kind of design are really aimed at maximizing social communication between citizens, not just on the streets but also in community institutions that are very much a part of public life there, says Andrew Ross, a New York University

42、professor who lived in Celebration for one year. Utopian communities such as Celebration are also designed with environmental protection in mind. The town itself is built on 4,900 acres surrounded by a 4,700 acre protected greenbelt. The greenbelt parks, and common areas accommodate native wildlife

43、and animals. High-rise office and apartment buildings provide close office and living space in a small geographic area in order to reduce urban sprawl, the spread of todays cities onto nature areas.Buildings also minimize environmental influence by using cooling; and electric systems with insulated

44、(绝缘的;隔热的) glass, cooling towers, and energy-saving lamps. The town more or less borrows very heavily from New Urbanist principles.to create environmentally friendly alternatives to sprawl and to create communities around people rather than vehicles, Ross said.59. Celebration mentioned in the passage

45、 is a _ .A. city offering living spaces B. community promoting socializationC. special occasion in the market D. downtown area with high buildings60. The purpose of holding art festivals mentioned in Paragraph 2 is to _ .A. exhibit art works B. attract artists for profitsC. encourage communication D

46、. reduce downtown traffic61. The underlined word sprawl in Paragraph 6 may be replaced by _.A. expansion B. organization C. restriction D. exploration62. Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?DDo you have any skiing equipment you no longer need? A ski school in the far north o

47、f India could put it to good use.In March we published a photo story about the extraordinary Zsnskar region in northern India，which is cut off from the outside world for more than seven months of the year，and only accessible (可通行的)via a frozen riverWe also included information about the limited use

48、of skiing in the region and the recent creation of the Zanskar Ski School:“Despite the difficulties of travelling through the region when the snow comes，skiing hasnt traditionally been used as a means of transport by the locals，largely because trees dont grow here, so there is little in the way of r

49、aw materials from which to make skisIn 1995, a group of British scientists in the region noticed the lack of skis and one of them returned to set up the Zanskar Ski School in PadamThe school provides lessons for a small fee and rents skis to the local people. Among the benefits that the school hopes

50、 to bring are improved educationchildren often find it difficult to get to school through the deep snowand the possibility of offering ski tours to tourists in the futureSo far，more than 300 local people have received training，and local doctors and policemen regularly borrow skis.”But what we werent

51、 able to include in the article is that the ski school is always on the look out for old skiing equipmentparticularly of a size suitable for childrenand, I thought. Now the European ski season is drawing to a close，there might be a few of you out there who have some old equipment youd like to see go

52、 to a good homeIf thats the ease you can get in touch with the school via their website www.zanskarski school.org.63. Whats the purpose in writing the text?A.

55、ing equipment D. Tavellers enjoying skiing67. What can be the best title for the text?A. An extraordinary region in India B. A popular sportskiingC. A good means of transport D. A home for old skisE While some scientists overlook the existence of a sixth sense for danger, a new research from Washing

56、ton University in St. Louis has identified a brain area that clearly acts as an early warning system and helps us adjust our behavior to avoid dangerous situations. Our brains are better at picking up not obvious warning signs than we previously thought, said Joshua Brown, PhD, a research associate

57、in psychology in the Feb. 18 issue of the journal Science. The findings offer exact scientific evidence for a new way to form a concept of the complex control processes taking place in and around the ACC, a brain area located near the top of the frontal lobes(耳垂) and along the walls that divide the

58、left and right hemispheres(大脑半球). In the past, we found activity in the ACC when people had to make a difficult decision, or after they make a mistake, Brown said. But now we find that this brain area can actually learn to recognize when you might make a mistake, even before a difficult decision has

59、 to be made. So the ACC appears to act as an early warning system it learns to warn us in advance when our behavior might lead to a negative outcome, so that we can be more careful and avoid making a mistake. By providing a clearer picture of the cognitive mechanisms(认知结构) by which we self monitor a

60、nd control our behavior, the study is an important step in efforts to develop more effective treatments for mental illnesses. It also provides a new way of understanding inappropriate behaviors that often accompany mental illnesses. Our results suggest how injury of the ACC mechanisms can lead to br

61、eakdowns in the early warning system, so that the brain fails to stop or control inappropriate behavior ahead of time, said Brown. On the other hand, in those persons with mental disorder, the ACC might warn of an upcoming problem even when no problem is in the existence. Known to be an important pa

62、rt of the brains control system, the ACC is believed to help adjust between cold, hard, fact-based reasoning and emotional responses, such as love, fear or expectation.68. According to the passage, the ACC_.A. refers to the sixth sense for danger B. deals with obvious warning situationsC. connects t

63、he left and right hemispheres D. sends warning messages in advance69. The new research is beneficial because it _ .A. provides a new way of avoiding mistakesB. adjusts emotional responses in time of dangerC. helps find better treatments for mental illnessesD. assists people in predicting and avoidin

64、g danger70. The new research helps us understand _.A. why we are likely to make mistakes when the ACC is badly injuredB. why people with mental illnesses usually have so many strange behaviorsC. how the ACC works when something dangerous happensD. how our brain warns us of failure in advance第四部分：书面表
