16、ose who share a common view of the future. For me, thats true for my relationship with my dad. Some fathers and sons bond over sports, fishing or hunting, but my dad and I bond over Star Trek. We tried a trip to Disney World, but one of my earliest memories wasnt Mickey, but a Klingon battle cruiser

17、 (巡洋舰) on the screen.Over the years, nearly every setting and situation has become far away for my dad and me. When its warm at night, were not driving along some dark streets in Indiana, but going at a slow speed with stars dimly shining. Both of us are thinking of them, without needing to say a wo

18、rd. All these imaginations of other universes have together created a private universe for my dad and me.Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek, once said, “Science fiction is a way of thinking, a way of logic that bypasses (绕过) a lot of nonsense. It allows people to look directly at important subje

19、cts.” A lifetime of science fiction has influenced more than just my relationship with my dad, but has also helped me shape my own hopes for the future. Im now a science writer.Yes, science fiction has made me into a “nerd” (书呆子) and it also has been a source of joy for my family, making me an optim

20、ist while enabling me to think critically about the danger of technology. Thank those authors who have shared their visions: the world and my family are better for it. Thank my dad, who is both the best storyteller and the best man I have ever known because he helped me realize the truth of Tennyson

21、s words, “For I dipped into the future, far as human eye could see, saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.”24.

24、r with My FatherC“I think Im nothing more than a dead fish.” “I dont want to do anything.” “Im so beat and so sad.”. The young generation in our country used to enjoy their “happy culture” but now they have become “beat and sad” slowly and secretly. Some people even called it “the beat culture”. The

25、 “Beat” youths dont want to do anything. They have no purpose, no desire and they are totally depressed so that they only want to live an aimless life. The “Ge You slouch (葛优瘫)” and the song I feel like having been drained are the examples. Many media concern themselves about this phenomenon and try

26、 to persuade the youths into embracing positive and healthy feelings and encourage them to work hard to get rid of decadence. This is really a kind gesture. However, we dont have to worry too much about this “beat culture.” In fact, its not a negative thing. “Beat” never means despair, but a way of

27、self-mockery (自嘲) and pressure relief. In general, the youths in China are not “beat”. According to a recent international research, the youths in China hold a positive attitude towards the future. 29% of the Chinese interviewees believe they will live and work in peace in China because “as long as

28、you work hard, you can have your own day”. Around 93% of the Chinese interviewees believe the future is promising because of medicine industry, renewable energy sources and computer. Compared with Chinese youngsters, youths in developed countries are more pessimistic. Of course there are some social

29、 reasons for the appearing of “the Beat Culture”. As urbanization develops rapidly, youths living in big cities are facing new challenges that their forefathers have never encountered before. Loneliness and feelings of insignificance and powerlessness are easy to get hold of the young people. Withou

30、t proper care, they could threaten our mentality and cause many social problems. These problems probably need our attention more. 28. “The Beat culture” includes the following examples except that A. the young generation in big cities are facing new challenges.B. the young generation consider themse

31、lves dead fish. C. the young generation dont feel like doing anything. D. the young generation enjoy the song I feel like having been drained. 29. Which word has the most similar meaning with “decadence” in Paragraph 2?A. sufferingsB. lazinessC. pessimismD. loneliness30. What can we learn from the p

32、assage?A. Most people believe that with hard work, people can have their own day.B. These days, young people suffer much more loneliness than their parents.C. Chinese youths are more negative than young people in developed countries.D. Social development does bring some pressure to the younger gener

33、ation.31. Whats the main idea of the text?A. “The Beat Culture” is popular among the Chinese youngsters.B. How does “the Beat Culture” affect the Chinese youth.C. The Chinese youths are not the beat generation.D. “The Beat Culture” is positive to Chinese youngsters. DA new report connects eating egg

34、s to an increased risk of heart disease. The results follow several earlier studies that found eating eggs was generally healthy. The study collects data from six other earlier studies. It shows a 6 percent increased risk of heart disease when the number of eggs a person ate each day increased by ha

35、lf an egg.Norrina Allen, an associate professor at Northwestern University said that, in the United States, eggs are generally one of the top sources of cholesterol (胆固醇) in a persons daily food. People with higher levels of cholesterol in their food are at increased risk of the development of heart

36、 disease later in life. However, Allen added that she would not say that eggs are completely unhealthy. “Im not saying that people should take them completely out of their food,” she said. “Im just suggesting that people eat them in a proper amount.”Some experts believe the new study does not prove

37、that eggs are causing heart disease. “Cholesterols role in the development of heart disease has been discussed for more than 30 years,” said Bruemmer, an associate professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. “This study does have clear shortcomings, including self-reporting

38、 at a single time point,” he added.Bruemmer said, “Eggs in moderation (适度) are probably acceptable from a nutritional standpoint.” “Moderation,” he added, “is less than one egg a day, including eggs in foods such as bread”. Holly Andersen, a doctor at the NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical C

39、enter, agrees that the study has “real shortcomings”. One problem Andersen has with the study is that a lot of the egg-eating people in the study also appeared to be eating much meat and processed meat. “If youre taking a lot of processed meat, it doesnt matter how many eggs youre eating,” Andersen

40、said.Also, Andersen said, “The study can only show there is a relation between eggs eating and heart disease. But it cannot prove eggs are the cause of the disease. It may just be that people eating a lot of eggs are also taking a lot of bacon.”32. What does Norrina Allen agree with?A. Eggs are comp

41、letely unhealthy.B. Eggs should be eaten in a right amount.C. Eggs contain the most cholesterol.D. Eggs have no connection with heart disease.33. What is Bruemmers attitude towards the study?A. Interested. B. Concerned.C. Doubtful.D. Hopeful.34. What can we learn from Holly Andersens words?A. Proces

42、sed meat may cause heart disease.B. Eggs and meat cannot be eaten together.C. Processed meat should be avoided.D. The study is supported by evidence.35. Whats the best title of the text?A. Are eggs the top source of cholesterol?B. Do eggs cause heart disease?C. Whats the proper amount of eggs eaten?

43、D. Is the cholesterol to blame for heart disease?第二节：七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将其涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Perhaps you have been living on a tight budget, but want to go out and enjoy the activities in your area, feeling restricted. 36 The following are some options for money free

There is no better way to get to know a place than on foot, and walking is completely free and amazingly healthy. 37 Then branch out to your local parks and nature trails.
