18、stern TurkeyBTwo years ago, Dimas Aliprandi and Elton Plaster didnt know of each others existence. Then they learned they had been switched at birth by mistake more than 20 years ago. The discovery didnt bring bitterness. Rather, it led to the creation of a bigger family.The chain of events started

19、with Dimas, who was always wondering why he did not look like the four sisters he grew up with. He was 14 when his doubts grew after watching a TV news report on babies getting switched at birth because of mistakes at hospitals- He wanted to do a DNA test, but it was too expensive for the family.A d

20、ecade later，Dimas did it on his own. The DNA test showed that he was not the birth son of the man and woman who had raised him. The news was a shock for his parents. They at first refused to believe the results, but eventually decided to help him look for his biological parents.The search began at t

21、he Madre Regina Protmann Hospital where records were checked. The hospital searched its records and found Elton Plaster was born there on the same day.The records led Dimas to the 35-acre farm where Piaster lived, with his parents, Nilza and Adelson, in the town of Santa Maria de Jetiba, about 30 mi

23、 Aliprandi and the parents who raised him accepted an offer from the Plasters to move to their farm, where they built a home. “This is the way it should be,” Adelson Plaster recently told Globo TV. “ We are all together and I now have two sons living and working here.25.

26、 the using of processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a buildings life-cycle. Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Green building means “reducing the effect of the building on the land”, Taryn Holowka of th

27、e U. S. Green Building Council (评议会）in Washington, D, C, said. According to Holowka, building accounts for 65 percent of total US, electricity use.But green buildings can reduce energy and water use- Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that

28、people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings dont destroy forests.Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that puts these ideas into act

29、ion. The Solaire has been called the countrys first green high-rise building. According to Dettling, “Weve reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50 percent.” The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power. “On the face of the building we have solar panels which change the suns e

30、nergy into electricity,” Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition, the building has lots of windows, allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.Not everyone is eager to move i

31、nto a green building, however. Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources. Anyhow, Holowka said, “Its going to be big.”29.

32、ck forests aroundC. where people of high income liveD. which has already been for buildings30. A green building means .A. a building that uses no electricityB. a green-colored buildingC. a building occupying less landD. a building that saves energy and water31. When Holowka says in the last paragrap

33、h, “Its going to be big”, she means that green buildings .A. will be more comfortableB. will be more environmentally friendlyC. will become popular in futureD. will take the place of traditional buildingsDA new report said that different types of plants can release some chemical into the air to help

34、 other plants. These chemical warnings all have the same purpose to spread information about one plants disease or infestation so other plants can defend themselves. But exactly how plants receive and act on many of these signals is still mysterious.In this weeks Proceedings of the National Academy

35、of Sciences, researchers in Japan offered some explanations. They had identified one chemical message and traced it all the way from release to action.The scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest, the cutworm. The researchers studied leaves from exposed and unexposed plants. They

36、 found one compound showed up more often in the exposed plants. The substance is called Hex Vic. When the scientists fed Hex Vic to cutworms, it knocked down their survival rate by I7%. The scientists identified the source of Hex Vic, and sprayed it lightly over healthy plants. Those plants were the

37、n able to start producing the cutworm-killing Hex Vic. Researchers confirmed that uninfected plants have to build their own weapons to fight off bugs and disease. How do they know when to play defense? They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbors.It is a complex tale, and it may be happen

38、ing in more plant species than tomatoes. It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us. Further studies are needed to increase agricultural efficiency. 32. Which is the way used by plants to warn their neighbors?A. using of windsB. identifying the chemicals C. rele

39、asing some chemicals D. being exposed early33. It can be inferred from the text that .A. farmers may benefit from the further studiesB. the phenomenon may be happening in less plant species than tomatoes C. there are not chemical signalsD. plants are warned first by their neighbors34. What，s the fun

40、ction of Hex Vic?A. It sprays over healthy plants.B. It shows up more.C. It cures the disease.D. It damages the cutworms body35. The passage is likely to appear in .A. a newspaper advertisement B. a physics textbook C. a science magazineD. a finance report第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白

41、处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（注意：E涂AB, F涂AC, G涂AD）Some scientists found that the womans brain is mainly built for the ability to understand other people. But mans brain is mainly to build systems. _36_ For example, women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting, while men will choose magazin

42、es that feature computers and sport.You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave when they are growing up. However, this is not the case. A new study carried out at Cambridge University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face, and newborn boys loo

43、k longer at a mobile. 37 It has also been observed (that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other peoples feelings. Boys, however, seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys which have clear functions. 38 People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male

44、. Math and engineering, which require high levels of systems-thinking, are also male-chosen disciplines. Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain neurons that connect the right and left part of their brains. Because of it, women have a better ability to

45、multitask than men._39_ Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time. They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another.Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender (性别) is better than the other, but this is not the case. My theory say

46、s that males and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy, but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. 40 It is not true. The study simply looks at males and females as two groups, and asks what differences exist, and why they are there.A. You can see the same kind of

47、 pattern in the adult workplace.B. That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological.C. Generally speaking, there are clear differences.D. It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy.E. They will consider many sources of information at

48、the same time.F. Their preference for building systems may change over time.G. Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like.第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。When I was a little chi

50、ver, I didnt keep my promise because I was 45 with my study. 46 I lost touch with my teacher. Some years later, my teacher died. I was very sad because I lost such a good teacher.

52、nything. But her 52 helped me ease my shame.

Sometimes the pitch(音高）is _57 when we play it

53、well, but sometimes we are out of tone. However, we all continue to create our own 58 style of music. No matter what style our music is，it is 59 that we sing the songs of joy, quietness and love.
