25、s of joy rang out at the San Jose Mine in northern Chile when 33 miners were lifted to freedom, one by one. The men, ranging from 19 to 63 years old, have been buried alive since a cave in the copper and gold mine they were working collapsed on August 5,2010. It is the longest time anyone has ever s

26、urvived being trapped underground.After the collapse, the men found an emergency shelter off one of the mines tunnels. The temperature in the dark shelter was around 90 degrees Fahrenheit. For more than two weeks, the miners water came from the tanks on their work vehicles. They shared a supply of f

27、ood that was meant to last for only 48 hours.The miners were totally isolated until rescue teams made contact with the men on August 22. They sent a note to the surface explaining their situation. Rescuers drilled small holes to reach the cave and sent down supply tubes containing food, water, cloth

28、es, medicine, fresh air and other supplies. They also received letters from their families, a television set and games.Additional collapses slowed down rescue efforts. Finally, a tunnel was built that could fit a 13-foot rescue capsule（救生舱）, called the Pheonix. The escape hole measures 28 inches acr

29、oss, a tight fit for the twisting 20 minutes, 2,041-foot ride. The first miner reached the surface just after midnight on October, 13. The rescue mission was faster than expected, and all 33 men had been brought to safety by late the same day.The miners were met by family members who were waiting at

30、 Camp Hope, a settlement of tents near the mine. Chiles president, Sebastian Pinera, cheered at the scene and hugged the miners. “We made a promise never to give up, and we kept it,” he said. After an immediate medical exam, the men were airlifted to the nearest hospital for 48 hours of observation.

31、41. How long were the rescued miners trapped in the mine?A. About 48 hours. B. About two weeks.C. One month and a half. D. More than two months.42. Which of the following doesnt belong to the rescue work?A. The water from the tanks. B. Small holes drilled to reach the cave.C. A tunnel built to fix a

32、 rescue capsule. D. Letters, games and a TV from the surface.43. What can we learn from the text?A. All miners reached the surface just after midnight on October 13.B. The loss of the mine collapse.C. The health condition of the trapped miners.D. The concern of Chiles president about the mine collap

33、se.44. According to the text, the rescued miners .A. received medical examination in a hospital at firstB. could go home immediately they got out of the mineC. had to stay in a hospital for two days before going homeD. felt relieved to see their family members taken good care of45. The best title fo

34、r the text should be .A. Disaster at the Mine B. A Miracle at the MineC. Efforts of Great Chileans D. Miserable Life of Chilean MinersCWhile learning the science lessons, I used to get a doubtwhy ear, nose, tongue and eyes should be called as special senses? The basic reason is that these are the ch

35、annels through which we maintain contact with the surroundings. Though apparently it may feel like these are individual sensory organs, they do show some connectivity. Interestingly, our hearing is less sharp after we eat a heavy food. Isnt it good for a sound nap after a stomach-full meal? That doe

36、s not mean we go deaf after a meal, but the hearing pitch（强度）does change after a heavy meal.We usually give credit of the taste to our tongue, but do you know that unless saliva（睡液）dissolves something, our tongue cannot recognize the taste of the food eaten. Taste is nothing but the food chemicals d

37、issolved in the saliva being sensed by the taste buds present on the tongue. Try to dry off your tongue and mouth with a tissue paper and then taste something. Women are much better smellers than men. They are born with this characteristic ability and can correctly pinpoint（准确说出）the exact fragrance

38、of the sample. We all can store almost 50,000 different scents, which are strongly tied to the memories.Pupils（瞳孔）do not respond to light alone, but to the slightest bit of noise around too. Thus surgeons, watchmakers and those professionals who have to perform a much delicate job do prefer to have

39、a sound-free environment. Even a small noise can dilate（扩大）their pupils, change the focus and blur（使模糊）their vision. If you do not wear glasses or contact lens due to having a 6/6 vision, you are just among the one third of the human population. It is now statistically proved that only one third of

40、the population has perfect vision, rest all are either wearing glasses or are trying to read with a compromised vision.Each and every one of us has a particular or individualistic or characteristic smell, which is unique to us, except for the identical twins. This smell is very subtle（微妙的）yet can be

41、 sensed even by a newborn. It may be due to this scent that the newborn recognizes the presence of his parents around. Many of us can pinpoint the smell of our significant friends and colleagues. A significant part of this phenomenon is guided by genetics but it is also changed by the environment, d

42、iet and personal hygiene. This all together creates the unique chemistry that is individualistic for each person.46. We can learn from Paragraph I that .A. after a full meal our hearing is as good as beforeB. all sensory organs are connected and can be exchangedC. sensory organs functions can never

43、be changed for their particular characterD. we feel and learn about the world around us through our eyes, ears, nose and tongue47. What may happen after you have had a rich lunch?A. Your eyes become dim. B. You may feel energetic and fresh.C. Your hearing pitch may be decreased. D. Your tongue may l

44、ose the function of taste.48. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?A. Our tongues cant be dried while eating something.B. If your tongue is dried without any saliva on it, it will not work.C. A tissue paper is the only thing that can be used to dry our tongues.D. If yo

45、ur tongue is dried with a tissue paper, it may work as well as before.49. What makes each person different from anyone else except twins?A. The number of sensory organs. B. The functions of sensory organs.C. The particular smell of a person. D. The style of ones behaviour.50. What is the text mainly

46、 about?A. The functions of sensory organs.B. The connectivity of our tongue and ear.C. A newborns senses of the sensory organs.D. The differences of senses between women and men.DAmerican students often have to take out loans to help pay for their education. Some students are very interested in the

47、cost of undergraduate and graduate study in the United Sates. The first thing we should know is that the prices are different from school to school. The private colleges and universities generally cost more than public ones. Another thing to keep in mind is that not all students pay the “published p

48、rice” of a school. Financial aid and scholarships may reduce the cost.The average published price for undergraduate study at a four-year public college was about seven thousand dollars. That was for students from “in state”. Students from other states as well as international students paid an averag

49、e of more than eighteen thousand dollars. This is the bad newsinternational students often have to pay the highest prices. And these averages were only for tuition （学费）fees. Food, housing, books and supplies can add ten to twelve thousand dollars a year. The College Board says the average tuition at

50、 a private college was about twenty-six thousand dollars.Many students save money by starting their education at a two-year public college, also known as a community college. The average tuition this year was about two thousand five hundred dollars.A few American colleges provide a free education, i

51、ncluding the military and Merchant Marine academies. They accept some foreign students. Berea College is a small Christian school in Berea, Kentucky, that pays all first-year costs for its foreign students. But they are expected to pay one thousand dollars a year after that. Summer jobs are provided

52、 to help meet this cost.Costs for graduate study in the United States also differ from school to school, and even from program to program. Here too, public universities charge more for out-of-state tuition. For example, at the University of Kentucky, out-of-state graduate tuition averaged about eigh

53、teen thousand dollars this year. In-state was about nine thousand.51. The passage is mainly talking about .A. how much an undergraduate or graduate needs to pay for studying in the United States.B. how an undergraduate or graduate can choose a suitable program or college in the USA.C. how much a for

54、eign undergraduate or graduate needs to pay for studying in the USA.D. why so many undergraduates and graduates are studying in the USA.52. Generally speaking, the annual cost of a foreign college student in a public college in the USA is A. 36-40 thousand dollars B. 17-19 thousand dollarsC. 26 thou

55、sand dollars D. 28-30 thousand dollars53. A foreign student who chooses Berea College is able to .A. get more career opportunities during summer vacationsB. reduce the cost of receiving education in the USA a lotC. have the chance to get along with world famous professorsD. earn a great deal of mone

56、y when they are at college54. What should an American graduate do in order to save money according to the passage?A. He should choose a public university in his own state.B. He should choose those unfamous public universities.C. He should avoid changing his major at college.D. He should try to do so

57、me part-time jobs.55. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The college tuition in America is higher than that in other countries.B. The higher the tuition is, the better the college is in the USA.C. Not all the parents in the USA will pay their childrens tuition of college.D. Some American stude

58、nts have to leave college because of the high tuition.第卷（非选择题共35分）第三部分：写作（共两节；满分35分）第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals cant talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts m

59、ay not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hu

60、rt in order to protect its young. When a predator（猎食动物）gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the “hurt” adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food

61、 so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.Birds called cuckoos have found a way to h

62、ave babies without doing much work. How? They dont make nests. Instead, they get into other birds1 nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them.Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will gi

63、ve its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winners hand and start fighting again.Chimps are dishonest in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is na

64、tural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps dont hear them, and they dont need to share their food.As children, many of us learn the saying “You cant fool Mother Nature.” But maybe you cant tru

65、st her, either.56. According to the passage, why do many animals behave dishonestly to fool others? (no more than 10 words)57. How does a plover deal with it when a predator approaches its nest?
