Are you ready?” is what sh

It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana. she was still on cloud nine.I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actu

20、ally really happen. Present in the audience that day were her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher. Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her competition. Shes always been my r

21、ole model. Ive danced with her since I was six. Shes been through so many difficulties and came through them all. Ive learned to get over bad lifes experiences and learned how to move on because of her. One of those bad lifes experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was

26、atural part of life. It would seem silly to call such a thing a “disease”.On the other hand, scientists are increasingly learning that aging and biological age are two different things, and that the former is a key risk factor for conditions such as heart disease, cancer and many more. In that light

27、, aging itself might be seen as something treatable, the way you would treat high blood pressure or a vitamin deficiency.Biophysicist Alex Zhavoronkov believes that aging should be considered a disease. He said that describing aging as a disease creates encouragement to develop treatments.“It unties

28、 the hands of the pharmaceutical(制药的) industry so that they can begin treating the disease and not just the side effects,” he said.“Right now, people think of aging as natural and something you cant control.” he said. “In academic circles, people take aging research as just an interest area where th

29、ey can try to develop interferences. The medical community also takes aging for granted, and can do nothing about it except keep people within a certain health range. ”But if aging were recognized as a disease, he said, “It would attract funding and change the way we do health care. What matters is

30、understanding that aging is curable.”“It was always known that the body accumulates damage” he added. “The only way to cure aging is to find ways to repair that damage. I think of it as preventive medicine for age-related conditions. ”Leonard Hayflick, a professor at the University of California, Sa

31、n Francisco, said the idea that aging can be cured implies the human lifespan can be increased, which some researchers suggest is possible. Hayflick is not among them.“Therere many people who recover from cancer, stroke, or heart disease. But they continue to age, because aging is separate from thei

32、r disease,” Hayflick said. “Even if those causes of death were removed, life expectancy would still not go much beyond 92 years.”28.What do people generally believe about aging?A. It should cause no alarm whatever the circumstances.B. It should be regarded as a kind of disease.C. They just cannot do

33、 anything about it.D. They can delay it with advances in science. 29.How do many scientists view aging now?A. It might be prevented and treated.B. It can be as risky as heart disease.C. It results from a vitamin deficiency.D. It is an irreversible(不可逆转的) biological process. 30.What do we learn about

34、 the medical community?A. They now have a strong interest in research on aging.B. They differ from the academic circles in their view on aging.C. They have ways to prevent peoples aging process.D. They can contribute to peoples health only to a limited extent. 31.What does Professor Leonard Hayflick

35、 believe?A. Aging is hardly separate from disease.B. The human lifespan cannot be lengthened.C. Few people live up to the age of 92.D. Heart disease is the major cause of aging.DSea turtles are one of several species that have temperature-dependent sex determination. The number of female babies incr

36、eases when nests are made in warmer sands. A recent study by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, California State University and Worldwide Fund for Nature Australia examined two genetically distinct populations of green sea turtles living in the Great Barrier Reef. The study found t

37、hat a group of about 200,000 turtles living in the northern part of the reef was almost entirely female. While the southern population was 65 to 69 percent female, females in the northern group accounted for 99.1 percent of young turtles and 86.8 percent of adults. After combining their results with

38、 temperature data, the scientists in charge of the study found that the northern green turtles have been producing mainly females for more than two decades and that the complete feminization（雌性化）of this population is possible in the near future. The temperature at which the turtles will produce male

39、 or female babies can be passed on to the turtles children. Most sea turtle populations are now producing offspring above the most suitable temperature, making it clear that climate change causes a serious threat to the survival of these populations. The chief executive Of World Wildlife Fund Austra

40、lia, Dermot OGorman, said this is another sign of the impact of climate change, following recent research that shows that coral bleaching (珊瑚白化) events are occurring far more frequently than in the past. Weve had two years where weve had mass bleaching events on the Great Barrier Reef, he told Guard

41、ian Australia. Thats a very visible sign of the impact of climate change. But this is a quiet change. We cant see the impact its having on a turtle population until a study like this shows some long-term trends. The lead author of the paper, Dr Michael Jensen, said the findings represent a major env

42、ironmental conservation issue. OGorman said more urgent action on climate change is clearly needed, adding that some conservationists have already taken practical measures, such as using shade cloth on turtle nesting beaches to lower the sand temperature, and reducing bycatch(误捕) in the fishing indu

43、stry. Shade cloth can be used in certain places, but theres a limit to the scale you can do that, he said. Now every large male who can reproduce is going to be even more important. 32. According to the research on Great Barrier Reefs green sea turtles, _.A. about 65 to 69 percent of northern turtle

44、s are female B. 86.8 percent of southern turtles have grown up to adults C. the feminization of green sea turtles could become worse D. adult green Sea turtles can change their sex in warmer places 33. Why did OGorman mention coral bleaching? A. To suggest that climate change poses more risks to cor

45、al than turtles. B. To compare the living environments of turtles and coral. C. To urge people to take practical measures to fight climate change. D. To stress this discovery about green sea turtles is very valuable. 34. Conservationists are taking action to _.A. keep the sea turtles nests cool B. s

46、top the illegal fishing of green sea turtles C. expand the size of the green sea turtles nesting places D. build special nests for turtles to produce offspring 35. Which would be the best title for the article? A. How climate change affects ocean creatures B. Invisible change caused by global warmin

Global green sea turtle populations in greater danger 第二节（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，选项中有两项为多余选项。Radar is an electronic device that detects planes, ships, coastlines, landmarks, and even storm clouds. The

48、name radar comes from the first letters of the words radio direction and ranging. As the human eye uses light waves to see, radar “sees” with radio waves. Without radar, planes could not land safely in bad weather and ships could not move safely in thick fog. 36_.In the 1800s it was discovered that

49、radio waves could be reflected from objects. But scientists did not make great advances in radar research until the 1930s, when the world was threatened by war. 37_ It has been used widely in almost every conflict since then.Echoes make it possible for radar to work. When a beam of radio waves is se

50、nt out, it strikes on an object and returns an echo. This echo is picked up by radar and recorded on a screen similar to television screen. On the screen an observer sees a flash, or a blip, that shows the direction and distance of the object. 38_Airport control towers use radar to guide planes in f

51、or safe landings. Almost all large ships depend on radar to prevent collisions with iceberg or other ships. 39 Weather forecasters see the size, direction, and speed of storms on radar screens. Astronomers can even use radar to measure accurately the distance to the moon. Thus, the device has genera

52、ted major advancements._40 Huge radar antennas have been installed all over the United States. They guard the U.S. against possible enemy attacks. We have ballistic missiles (弹道导弹) warning systems that can alert us to attacks when missiles are more than 1,000 miles away. Other radar systems warn us

53、against enemy aircraft and even spying space satellites.A .Police track speeders in radar-equipped cars.B. These measurements are now highly accurate.C. The device can be used in a wide range of fields.D. It is therefore especially valuable to shippers and travelers.E. During World War Two many coun

54、tries used radar effectively.F. Today, radar is used by commercial airliners and weather forecasters.G. Strengthening national defense is one of radars most important functions.第三部分：语言知识运用（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。The snow was falling and t
