No name, no 36 . It has peeked through the branches of our tree for the past 10 years or so.It all began because

19、my husband Mike 37 Christmas oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the 38 aspects of it overspending and the frantic（匆忙的）running around at the last 39 to get gifts because you couldnt think of anything else. So, I decided one year to bypass the usual shirts, sweaters and ties and reach for some

20、thing 40 just for Mike.The inspiration came in an 41 way. Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was 42 at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team of mostly 43 kids sponsored by a church. These young men, dressed in ragged sneakers, 44 a sharp contrast to

21、 our boys in their nice uniforms and sparkling new shoes. As the match began, I was alarmed to see that the other team was wrestling without 45 , a luxury that they obviously couldnt 46 . Well, we thoroughly 47 them and took every weight class. Mike shook his head sadly. “I 48 just one of them could

22、 have won,” he said. “They have a lot of 49 , but losing like this could take the heart right out of them.”Mike loved kids and he knew them. Thats when the 50 for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local 51 goods store and bought wrestling helmets and shoes and sent them anonymously（匿名）to

23、 the 52 . On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the 53 inside telling Mike what I had done, and that was my gift for him.

The bird, called Elisha, was more than 300 miles from home when she landed in Ottawa. Elisha was living

27、in a bird compound in a small town near Connecticut when she got lost. Why was the bird flying around? “She was probably trying to migrate,” says a naturalist. “A flamingos natural instinct is to migrate to warmer weather in winter.”For the past few years, Elisha has lived in a bird compound with ot

28、her birds, ducks, and swans. In summer, the birds spend their time in a shallow pond. In winter they live in a large, heated greenhouse. One day, Elisha took off and flew about 50 miles to the Connecticut River. Her caregivers tried to get her back and planned to clip（夹住）her wings so she wouldnt fly

29、 away again. But every time they approached, Elisha managed to get away. “Thats a smart bird,” said a news reporter. “She probably knew she was about to get her wings clipped.”Back in Ottawa, wildlife experts were trying to rescue Elisha before she froze to death. But it wasnt easy. First they put u

30、p a giant mirror to attract her and placed plates of food next to her. Next, they gathered together plastic flamingos . They set the plastic birds up in a park nearby, “We were hoping that Elisha would like being in a group, even if it is plastic. Maybe she would fall in love or something,” a rescue

31、 worker said. That didnt work either. “Shes not easy to catch, ” said a compound worker in Connecticut. “We couldnt catch her either. She seems to like her freedom.”Finally, after a dozen rescue attempts by almost 100 volunteers, Elisha was captured. “I guess she got hungry,” said a rescue worker. “

32、We were about to give up when we saw her looking for food at the edge of the river. She couldnt find anything to eat because the water was frozen. ” Elisha put her head in the water to feed. When she came up they caught her in a net. Then she flew back to Connecticut, this time by plane. 56Why was E

33、lisha found in Ottawa in November? AShe was meant to find something to eat.BShe got lost in an attempt to migrate.CShe intended to stay away from a bird group.DShe had to land in Ottawa for a break.57Which of the following was NOT used when people tried to catch Elisha?AA large mirror.BPlates of foo

34、d.CPlastic flamingos.DDucks and swans.58What can we learn from the text?AIt is more than 300 miles away from Ottawa to Connecticut.BTwo attempts had been made before Elisha was captured.CElisha was almost frozen to death when caught in a net.DRescue workers gave up their effort to catch Elisha.59Wha

35、t can we infer from the text? AElisha didnt like her caregivers and managed to get away.BConnecticut is a tropical area.CThe rescue of Elisha cost a lot of money.DElisha would never try to leave her group again.60Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?AThe Lost FlamingoBLost &

36、FoundCBird Rescuers DFlamingosBEvery October, over 1,400 hunters hit the woods in the Pacific Northwest. They re looking for something worth millions. The hunt isnt for gold, its for mushrooms. To some people, mushrooms are more valuable than gold. The mushrooms are called “matsutake” in Japanese. T

37、hey have a wonderful scent and are highly prized in Japan. In the same way that North Americans associate Thanksgiving with eating turkey, people in Japan associate autumn with matsutake mushrooms. They often wrap single perfect matsutake mushrooms with green leaves and give them as gifts. People us

38、e the mushrooms in soups and special dishes.Matsutake mushrooms grow all over, in China, Turkey, South Korea, Bhutan, and Mexico. But the best place to find them is in the United States, in the Pacific Northwest on the border of Oregon and California. There, the mushrooms grow abundantly and the qua

39、lity is excellent. They can sell for 300 a pound and have even gone up to 600 a pound.The mushroom hunt is a multi million dollar business, and it has its risks. “There are a lot of people out in the woods, and theyre all looking for the same thing. The first week in October, there were more than 1,

40、400 pickers,” says a forestry official. “The harvest can produce 1.2 million pounds of the mushrooms. Thats worth about 18 million. Its no wonder there are holdups.” Jack Spencer, a mushroom picker, agrees. “You have to be careful,” he says. “A guy with a gun can run out of the woods and say Hand ov

41、er your mushrooms!” But most seasons are trouble free. Hunters must buy permits, and the number of hunters in the area is restricted.“The challenge is finding these matsutake mushrooms,” Jack says. Hunters go out into the woods with maps and suggestions from friends. They look for places where certa

42、in trees grow together. Mushroom hunters can walk for hours and find only a few mushrooms. But then suddenly , they may hit the jackpot a huge patch of mushrooms.61Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?AMushrooms grow best in some Asian countries.BMushroom hunters cause

43、great damage to the woods.CIn North America, mushrooms are worth much more than gold.DIt takes a lot of work and patience to get a good harvest of the mushrooms.62What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?AMatsutake mushrooms are highly valued in Japan.BNorth Americans celebrate Thanksgiving

44、by eating turkey.CMushrooms wrapped with green leaves are perfect gifts.DMushrooms are often used to cook special soups and dishes.63The underlined word “holdups” is closest in meaning to . AdelaysBadventuresCrobberiesDchallenges64It can be inferred from the passage that .Amushroom hunters are free

45、from trouble if they are carefulBthose hunting for the mushrooms in the Pacific Northwest are mostly JapaneseChunters are not free to hunt for mushrooms in the woodsDmushrooms are of good quality where they grow abundantly 65Which is the best title for the passage?AHow to Find Matsutake MushroomsBHa

46、nd Over Your Mushrooms!CWhere to Find Matsutake MushroomsDFood Culture in JapanCThe old idea that talented children “burn themselves out” in the early years, and, therefore, are subjected to failure and at worst, mental illness is unfounded. As a matter of fact, the outstanding thing that happens to

47、 bright kids is that they are very likely to grow into bright adults.To find this out, 1,500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty fifth year with these results:On adult intelligence tests, they scored as high as they had as children. They were, as a group, in good health, physically and m

48、entally. 84 per cent of their group were married and seemed content with their lives.About 70 per cent had graduated from college, though only 30 per cent had graduated with honors. A few had even dropped out, but nearly half of these had returned to graduate.Of the men, 80 per cent were in one of t

49、he professions or in business management or semiprofessional jobs. The women who had remained single had office, business, or professional occupations.The group had published 90 books and 1, 500 articles in scientific, scholarly, and literary magazines and had collected more than 100 patents.In a ma

50、terial way they did not do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth. In fact, far from being strange, most of the gifted were turning their early promise into practical reality.6

51、6The underlined word unfounded is closest in meaning to .Aunclear BbaselessCambiguousDreasonable67The survey of bright children was made to .Afind out whether the talented children had all become great leadersBprove that talented children “burn themselves out” in the early yearsCdiscover the percent

52、age of those mentally ill among the giftedDprove that most talented children are likely to turn their early promise into practical reality68Intelligence tests showed that .Abright children were unlikely to be mentally healthyBbetween childhood and adulthood there was a considerable loss of intellige

53、nceCtalented children were most likely to become gifted adultsDthe grown up talented children got higher scores than in their childhood69The author seems to suggest that .Amarriage affects gifted womens careerBgifted women earn more money than gifted menCbright girls are less likely to become bright

54、 adults than bright boysDhowever hard bright children work, their physical and mental health wont be affected70The survey showed that most of the people surveyed .Acollected a patentBpublished booksCdropped out of collegeDenjoyed success and happinessDEverybody loves a fat pay rise. Yet pleasure at

55、your own can disappear if you learn that a colleague has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he has a reputation for incompetence in their work, you might even be extremely angry. Such behavior is regarded as “all too human”, with the underlying assumption that other animals would not be capable of

56、this finely developed sense of grievance（委屈）. But a study by Sarah Brosnan and Frans de Waal of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey as well.The researchers studied the behavior of females brown capuchin monkeys. They look

57、cute. They are good natured, co operative creatures, and they share their food willingly. Above all, like their female human counterparts, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males. Such characteristics make them perfect candidates for Dr. Brosnans and Dr

58、. de Waals study. The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens（代币）for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for slices of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate but adjoining chambers（邻室）, so that each could observe

59、 what the other was getting in return for its rock, they became markedly different.In the would of capuchins grapes are luxury goods（and much preferable to cucumbers）. So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was reluctant to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucu

60、mber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all, the other either tossed her own token at the researcher or out of the chamber, or refused to accept the slice of cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other chamber（without an actual monkey to e

61、at it） was enough to reduce anger in a female capuchin.71The statement “it is all too monkey as well” implies that .Amonkeys also get angry with each otherBfeeling angry when unfairly treated is also monkeys natureCmonkeys, like humans, tend to be friendly to each otherDno other animals other than m

62、onkeys are so much like humans72Female capuchin monkeys were chosen for the research most probably because they .Alike to weigh what they getBlook cute and good - naturedCco operate with each other willinglyDpay close attention to researchers instructions73The monkeys “tokens” were nothing but .Asli

65、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，并根据要求完成文章后的题目。People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed. It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative and another is competitive.Social scientists are, of course, extreme

66、ly interested in these types of questions. They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors. There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed. As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from each

67、 other. The controversy is often conveniently referred to as “nature or nurture（养育）”.Those who support the “nature” side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological factors. That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abi

68、lities, characteristics and behavior is central to this theory.Taken to an extreme, this theory maintains that our behavior is pre determined to such a great degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts（本能）. , that is, they advocate education, are often called behaviorists. They cl

69、aim that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act. A behaviorist, B. F. Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings. The behaviorists maintain that, like machines, humans respond to envi

70、ronmental stimuli（刺激）as the basis of their behavior.Let us examine the different explanations about one human characteristic, intelligence, offered by the two theories. Supporters of the “nature” theory insist that we are born with a certain capacity for learning that is biologically determined. Nee

71、dless to say, they dont believe that factors in the environment have much influence on what is basically a predetermined characteristic. On the other hand，behaviorists argue that our intelligence levels are the product of our experiences. Behaviorists suggest that the child who is raised in an envir

72、onment where there are many stimuli which develop his or her capacity for appropriate responses will experience greater intellectual development.1What is the best title of the passage? （Please answer within 10 words.） 2Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?However, those

73、 who support the “nurture” theory maintain that it is peoples experiences that determine how clever they are. 3Please fill in the blank in the 5th paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.（Please answer within 10 words） 4Are you one the “nature” side or on the “nurture” side ?

They each stand in a different corner of a football field. The eldest son kicks out the father, who huddles up into a ball. The other children are prep

79、ared to ward him off. It is sad to see none of them is willing to accept their father.The picture is thought provoking, and what it illustrates is a common phenomenon in todays society: many grown up children refuse to support their aging parents. While they enjoy a comfortable life, their parents a

80、re neglected and reduced to utter poverty, as these elderly people have grown so physically weak that they no longer have the means to support themselves. I think these children have betrayed their own conscience and therefore may subject themselves to social contempt and criticism.According to Chin

81、ese culture, to be kind to ones parents is the height of virtue. We owe so much to our parents in that they not only gave us life but have done much in bringing us up. It is against nature for us to shirk the responsibility of taking care of our parents when they are old. Rather, we have the duty to

82、 pay back their love by making their later years enjoyable and happy.附：听力原文Text 1M：Look Im sorry to bother you about this, but the music is really loud.W：I didnt realize you could hear it.Text 2M：How is your mother feeling these days?W：Much better.
