15、erent levels.There are one billion words in the book，which makes it longer than 5000 volumes the size of this book，or as long as 800 Bibles.If I read the genome out to you at the rate of one word per second for eight hours a day，it would take me a century.If I wrote out the human genome，one letter p

16、er millimeter，my text would be as long as the River Danube.This is an enormous document，a huge volume，a cook book of great length，and it all fits inside the extremely small nucleus (核) of a tiny cell that fits easily upon the head of a pin.The idea of the genome as a book is not，strictly speaking，ev

17、en a metaphor (比喻)It is true to a great extent.A book is a piece of digital information，written in onedirectional form and defined by a code that translates a small alphabet of signs into a large dictionary of meanings through the order of their groupings.So is a genome.The only complication is that

18、 all English books read from left to right while some parts of the genome read from left to right，and some from right to left，though never both at the same time.While English books are written in words of different lengths using twentysix letters，genomes are written entirely in threeletter words，usi

19、ng only four letters.And instead of being written on flat pages，they are written on long chains of DNA molecules (分子)The genome is a very clever book，because in the right conditions it can both photocopy itself and read itself.56How do human genomes read according to the passage?AOnly from left to r

20、ight. BOnly from right to left.CFrom both directions at the same time. DFrom one direction at a time.57We can learn from the passage that the human genome _.Ais as long as the River Danube Bcan be easily placed on the head of a pinCis coded with an alphabet of four letters Dis smart enough to read a

21、nd take photos of itself58It can be concluded that the passage is mainly written for _.Aspecialists in the field Bgeneral readersCnatural scientists Dreaders with academic background59The real purpose of the authors comparison of the genome to a book is _.Ato focus on the differences between the two

22、 Bto lay emphasis on the similarities between the twoCto simplify the concept of the human genomeDto give an exact description of the human genomeBWith only about 1000 pandas left in the world，China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物种)Thats a move similar

23、 to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noahs Ark”Noahs Ark is aimed at collecting eggs，embryos(胚胎)，semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen.If certain species should become extinct，Dr.Duane Kraem

24、er，a professor in Texas A&Ms College of Veterinary Medicine，says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.It is estimated that as many as 2000 species of mammals，birds and reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years.The panda，native only to China

25、，is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.This week，Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit.They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.The entire procedure could take from t

26、hree to five years to complete.“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy，and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem，” Kraemer believes.“They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby)

27、It takes a long time and its difficult，but this could be groundbreaking science if it works.They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk，so it is worth the effort，” adds Kraemer，who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A&M，the firstever attempt at cloning a dog.“They are trying to

28、 do something thats never been done，and this is very similar to our work in Noahs Ark.Were both trying to save animals that face extinction.I certainly appreciate their effort and theres a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do.Its a research that is very much needed.” 60The aim of “No

29、ahs Ark” project is to _.Amake efforts to clone the endangered pandas Bsave endangered animals from dying outCcollect DNA of endangered animals to study Dtransfer the nuclear of one animal to another61According to Professor Kraemer，the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _.Aavailabl

30、e panda eggs Bhost animalsCqualified researchers Denough money62The best title for the passage may be _.AChinas Success in Pandas Cloning BThe First Cloned Panda in the WorldCExploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas DChinathe Native Place of Pandas Forever63From the passage we know that _.AKraemer

31、and his team have succeeded in cloning a dogBscientists try to implant a pandas egg into a rabbitCKraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researchesDabout two thousand species will probably die out in a centuryCSome spiders hunt on the ground，others build webs to trap their food，but the g

32、rass water spider catches its prey by running along the surface of the water.This special water spider lives on the grassy banks of streams where mosquitoes，damsel flies and other insects come to feed and breed.Although it is one of the largest spiders in New Zealand，it has an unusual ability.It doe

33、snt disturb the water as it waits for its meal，and there is barely a ripple(波纹) when it skims(掠过) across the surface at lightning speed to catch its prey.Grass water spiders deal swiftly with larger insects like damsel flies by pulling their heads under the water and holding them there until they dr

34、own.After a meal，the grass water spider spends up to half an hour grooming(修饰) itself.It wipes its eight eyes，brushes its antennae(触角)，and takes special care to clean the hairs on its body.It is the hairs that trap tiny bubbles(泡沫) of air so that the spider can run down a blade(叶片) of grass and stay

35、 underwater for up to an hour when it is frightened.The hairs also keep the spider dry，even underwater.It is only when the female spider is caring for the young that she does not hunt on the water.After mating，she produces a large egg sac(囊)，which she carries around for five weeks.Once the eggs star

36、t to hatch，she attaches the sac to some blades of grass or a thistle.She then tears the sac open and releases the tiny spiders into the nursery web.64How does the grass water spider kill its prey?AIn a web.BBy drowning.CBy poisoning.DWith its antennae.65The writer describes the special spider as “sp

45、as badly injured in the eyeEWhats your idea of a good time？What about dancing in a rainy field with one hundred and fifty thousand other people while a famous rock band plays on a stage so far away that the performers look like ants?It may sound strange but that is what many hundreds of thousands of

55、iao Wei.书面表达(满分25分)随着科学技术的发展，人类已经进入了克隆时代。你们班就此话题召开了英语班会。请你以“If I Mastered Cloning Technology”为题，写一篇120150词的发言稿。If I Mastered Cloning Technology_参考答案.120略.21解析：failure意为“失败”，是不可数名词，其前不必使用冠词。state意为“状态，样子，情况，精神状态”，是可数名词，其前可使用冠词。a.state of.意为“的状态”。答案：A22解析：time and again“反复”，once again和over again 均为“又一

56、次”之意。now and again“时而”，只有D项与题意相符。答案：D23解析：make up for意为“弥补，补偿”。答案：A24解析：suggest作“建议，要求，命令，应当做”解时，其后的宾语从句中的谓语常用“should动词原形”的形式，这时should可以省略。有类似用法的动词还有insist，demand，desire，request，require，propose等。答案：C25解析：本句为虚拟语气，表示与过去事实相反的情况，but for意为“要不是”。答案：D26解析：本题主要考查短语的辨析。as far as表示“直到，远到，至于”，as long as的意思是“只要

57、”， as well as的意思是“又，和，及，除了，还”，as soon as的意思是“尽快，一就”。根据句子的意思，除了工作压力外，老师还必须处理由于人际关系所引起的心理问题，故选C项。答案：C27解析：本题考查动词辨析。reason“思考，想到”，强调通过思索而推理出某结果；recognize强调“认出”某人或某物；realize作“认知，了解，实现”解；read意为“观察，了解”。答案：C28解析：本题主要考查动词短语的意义辨析。throw away的意思是“扔掉”；put away的意思是“把收拾好，储藏备用”；give away的意思是“赠送，分发，泄漏，放弃”；carry awa

58、y的意思是指“冲走”。句意：战争爆发时，许多人把带不走的东西收拾起来。答案：B29解析：本题考查在语境中灵活运用辨析短语用法的能力，此处“seldom，if ever”是一个短语，是“从不，决不”的意思。答案：B30解析：本句为强调句型。去掉is和空格(it that)，能还原构成特殊疑问句，what作 troubles的主语。答案：A31解析：he has no time 与Jack doesnt have a job为同时间发生的动作或存在的状态，He would find one是虚拟语气一般时，表示“本来应该找份工作”。答案：D32解析：“情态动词现在完成式”表示对过去的推测，coul

59、d表可能性，should表过去该做而没做的事。答案：C33解析：此处为强调句型，强调until从句，如复原应为I didnt go to bed until he returned.not until句型变为强调句型时应注意，主句中的not在强调句中移至until之前。答案：C34解析：“Its time从句”中的从句动词用虚拟的语气，动词用过去式。答案：A35解析：考查交际用语。选项A是鼓励性用语，意为“加油”；选项B意为“当心”，用于提醒别人注意某事；选项D是电话用语，意为“别挂断电话”。答案：C.36解析：爱迪生10岁的时候，建成了自己的化学“实验室”。答案：C37解析：为实验购置“用品

60、”答案：B38解析：become used to 是一个固定句式，意为“逐渐习惯于”。答案：B39解析：shake意为“震动”。答案：D40解析：从他自制telegraph set 可以看出A项是正确答案；introduce sb. to在此处意为“使某人了解/认识”。答案：A41解析：teach oneself sth.相当于learn sth. by oneself。答案：C42解析：根据第三段可知他要当专业电报员。答案：D43解析：opportunity意思是“机会”。其他选项不符合句意。答案：B44解析：wait for意为“等待”；long for意为“渴望”；look for 意为

61、“寻找”；waiting. arrive为v.ing短语，在句中作伴随状语。答案：C45解析：根据下一句中carried the “boy” to safety可推知选C项。答案：C46解析：救人要抢时间，故“冲出去”。答案：A47解析：为报答爱迪生，“主动提出”教他铁路电报技术。答案：A48解析：爱迪生天资聪明，站长又教他，故B项为最佳答案。答案：B49解析：in debt意为“欠债”，poor and in debt前后呼应。答案：D50解析：It is(was)被强调部分that(who). 为强调句型。答案：C51解析：对电的“使用”有了兴趣。答案：C52解析：当时电仍处在“试验”阶段

62、。答案：D53解析：benefit意为“利益”，如果interest后加上s也是正确的。答案：A54解析：揭示大自然的“秘密”。答案：B55解析：用比较级的形式表达最高级的意义。答案：B.56解析：细节题。从第二段最后一句话 “The only complication is that all English books read from left to right while some parts of the genome read from left to right，and some from right to left，though never both at the same t

63、ime.”可以看出，部分基因组是从左向右读的，部分是从右向左，虽然两者不同时发生。所以，基因组在某个时间内是向一个方向读的。答案：D57解析：细节题。可以从最后一段第一句话 “While English books are written in words of different lengths using twentysix letters，genomes are written entirely in threeletter words，using only four letters.”可知，人类的基因组以四个字母为代码。答案：C58解析：推理判断题。这篇短文以书籍作比喻，深入浅出地介绍

64、了有关人类基因组的知识，所以不是一篇专著，而是为普通读者写的。答案：B59解析：推理判断题。人们十分熟悉书籍，把人类的基因组比作书籍，可以使基因组这个复杂的概念变得十分简单。答案：C60解析：语意理解题。从第二段内容可知，“诺亚方舟”工程的目标是把濒临灭绝的动物的蛋(卵)、胚胎、精液和DNA储存在液体氮中，如果某一种动物濒临灭绝时，将来可以重现这一动物。答案：B61解析：细节题。从第六段第一句话“The nuclear transfer of one species to another is not easy，and the lack of available (capable of bei

65、ng used ) panda eggs could be a major problem”可以作出正确判断。答案：A62解析：主旨题。从文章内容来看，无论是中国还是世界克隆熊猫还没有成功，所以排除A、B项；D项内容明显与文章内容不符，故排除。所以“探索克隆熊猫的可能性”应该是这篇文章的标题。答案：C63解析：判断题。此题B项的干扰性较强，但由于它没有说明是Chinese scientists，所以应排除。A、C项明显与原文不符。根据文章第三段第一句可知答案非D项莫属。答案：D64解析：细节题。根据文章第四段描述“.by pulling their heads under the water

66、and holding them there until they drown.”可推知此题答案为B项。答案：B65解析：细节题。根据文章第一段“.by running along the surface of the water.”可推知此题答案为A项。答案：A66解析：细节题。根据文章第二段“This special water spider lives on the grassy banks of streams.”可推知此题答案为C项。答案：C67解析：主旨题。本文主要介绍了这种水蜘蛛的生活情况，由此可知作者的目的是要读者了解水蜘蛛的特征，所以选D项。答案：D68解析：细节理解题。根据

67、第三段“The deer burst through the front door early on Saturday.”可知事情发生在周六清晨。答案：C69解析：考查引申义。由“I wasnt exactly dressed for company”可知Beck夫人是在开玩笑，意为“我穿衣服根本不是要去上班”。答案：A70解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“Somehow he managed to turn on the water in the bathtub.”可知它碰巧打开了浴室的水龙头。答案：D71解析：细节理解题。根据短文最后一段第一句“The animal was soon brou

68、ght under control，removed from the house and released.”可知。答案：B72解析：细节理解题。根据第三段和第四段可知，刚开始时入场费是1英镑，有1500人参加。2005年有150 000人参加，入场费是112英镑，且票在三个小时内就售完了。所以选A项。答案：A73解析：细节理解题。根据第五段可知“Glastonbury”是慈善活动，故A项错误。根据第三段“.an admission price of 1the ticket included free milk from the farm.”可知喝牛奶的费用已经包含在入场费1英镑里，故B项错误

69、。根据第四段最后一句“Acts included veteran supertars，such as Paul Mc Cartney and James Brown，as well as new talen，like Franz Ferdinand and Joss Stone.”可知Joss Stone不属于superstar。故D项错误。根据第四段第一、二句可知C项正确。答案：C74解析：“.the Live 8 concerts were held at the same time in London，Paris，Rome and Berlin.”说明the Live 8是音乐会的名称。

70、答案：D75解析：标题判断题。本篇文章介绍的是英国的夏季音乐节Glastonbury Festival，因此选B项。答案：B.答案：76.offrom77.quietlyquiet78.在well 前加上as79.toat80.81.thatwhy82.talkedtalk83.strangerstrangers84.sincebut85.去掉about或在about前加上something.参考范文：If I Mastered Cloning TechnologyWith the development of science and technology，the world is appro
