Ⅱ 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Because of the financial crisis in the US and UK, college students are beginning to struggle to find ways to pay their tuition fees and accommodations.
Recently, two major US student loan lenders—Citibank and JPMorgan Chase — announced they were leaving the student loan industry altogether. Because banks currently have a lack of credit(存款额),they are reluctant to offer students low-interest loans(贷款) that need a several-year wait for any return of interest.
In the US, many undergraduates top up their financial needs with a private loan, although the majority can get government-funded loans. In the 20052006 academic year, $17 billion in private student loans was used to finance higher education. The shortfall in private funding has yet to be covered and will hit many US students hard.
Across the Atlantic, UK students have been less troubled by the crisis. Most undergraduates in the UK cover their university expenses with government-funded loans and grants(助学金).Their biggest concern is a sudden steep increase in student rent.
Most young professionals now rent houses, since 80 percent of UK mortgage schemes(住房抵押贷款计划) have disappeared — a direct result of the credit crisis. This has boosted the house rent market.
In large cities, UK students are paying almost 6.5 percent more in rent than the previous year. Figures from the UK organization Accommodation for Student show students in big cities such as London paying an average weekly rent of $103.
Yet, despite students’ suffering, the number of this year’s university applications is expected to grow. During economic slumps, people regard further education as a way to survive tough job markets.
26.According to the passage, banks are unwilling to offer students loans because ________.
A.the students are poor and sometimes they can’t pay off the debt
B.banks prefer lending the money to the young professionals
C.banks don’t have enough money left at the present time
D.they think college students are not studying hard
27.The underlined phrase “top up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.
A.put up B.make up C.fill up D.pick up
28.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.UK college students have to pay more if they want to rent houses.
B.More UK students want to further their study in college.
C.It is not so easy for US students to loan money now.
D.College students’ tuition fees have risen greatly.
29.It can be inferred that ________.
A.there are no private student loan lenders in the UK
B.loans for US college students will be increased next year
C.private funding falls a little because of higher-interest loans in the US
D.private loans play a very important role in financing US students’ education
30.The passage mainly tells us ________.
A.college students in the US and UK are faced with their financial crisis
B.it is the duty of the governments to solve college students’ financial crisis
C.private student loan is a good way for college students to overcome the difficulties
D.further education is a good way for college students to survive tough job markets
B
Jim suffered heart problems. In conversation he expressed little joy and it seemed that his life was drawing to a close.
When his heart problems led to operation, Jim went through it successfully, and a full recovery was expected. Within days, however, his heart was not beating properly. Jim was rushed back to operation, but nothing was found to explain the cause of his illness. He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th birthday.
Dr. Bruce Smoller, a psychologist, had had many conversations with him, and the more he learned, the stranger he realized Jim's case was. When Jim was a child, his father, a teacher, suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover. One morning Jim asked his father to look over his homework, promising to come home from school at noon to pick it up. His father agreed, but when Jim returned his father had died. Jim's father was 48.
“I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father,” Dr. Smoller says. “He felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework, his father would have lived. Jim had been troubled by the idea. The operation was the trial he had expected for forty years. “Smoller believes that Jim willed himself not to live to the age of 48.
Jim's case shows the powerful role that attitude plays in physical health, and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of grown-ups. Although most cases are less direct than Jim's, studies show that childhood events, besides genes, may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer, heart disease and mental illness.
31. Jim was sent back to operation because ________.
A. his heart didn't work well B. he expected a full recovery
C. his life was drawing to a close D. the first one wasn't well performed
32. What made Dr. Smoller feel strange about Jim's case?
A. Jim died at a young age.
B. Jim died on the operating table.
C. Both Jim and his father died of the same disease.
D. Jim's death is closely connected with his father's.
33. From Smoller's words, we can infer that ________.
A. Jim's father cared little about his study
B. Smoller agreed that Jim did kill his father
C. Jim thought he would be punished some day
D. Smoller believed Jim wouldn't live to the age of 48
34. Which of the following could have strong effect on one's physical health according to the text?
a. One’s genes. b. One’s life in childhood. c. One’s physical education.
d. The date of one’s birthday. e. The opinions one has about something.
A. a, b, d B. a, b, e C. a, c, e D. b, c, d
35. Which of the following is true?
A. Both Jim and his father died at the age of 48.
B. Jim often asked his father to do his homework.
C. Jim was believed to kill his father.
D. Most childhood events can cause cancer, heart disease and mental illness.
C
What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today’s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.
In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond l20 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on — in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
It is exciting to imaging that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.
36. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by .
A. diseases and aging B. accidents and war
C. accidents and aging D. heart disease and war
37. In the author’s opinion, today’s most important advance in technology lies in .
A. medicine B. the Internet
C. brain cells D. human organ
38. Humans may live longer in the future because .
A. heart disease will be far away from us
B. human brains can decide the final death
C. the basic materials of cells will last forever
D. human organs can be repaired by new medicine
39. How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?
A. Over 100 years. B. More than 120 years.
C. About 150 years. D. The passage doesn’t tell us.
40. We can learn from the passage that .
A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the future
B. humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells now
C. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer life
D. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells
D
If you were to walk up to Arthur Bonner and say, “ Hey, Butterfly Man,” his face would break into a smile. The title suits him. And he loves it.
Arthur Bonner works with the Palos Verdes blue butterfly, once thought to have died out. Today the butterfly is coming back — thanks to him. But years ago if you’d told him this was what he’d be doing someday, he would have laughed, “ You’re crazy.” As a boy, he used to be “ a little tough guy on the streets”. At age thirteen, he was caught by police stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man.
“ I knew it had hurt my mom,” Bonner said after he got out of prison. “So I told myself I would not put my mom through that pain again.”
One day he met Professor Mattoni, who was working to rebuild the habitat for an endangered butterfly called El Segundo blue.
“I saw the sign ‘Butterfly Habitat’ and asked, ‘How can you have a habitat when the butterflies can just fly away?’” Bonner recalls. “Dr. Mattoni laughed and handed me a magnifying glass(放大镜) , ‘Look at the leaves.’ I could see all these caterpillars(蝴蝶的幼虫) on the plant. Dr Mattoni explained, ‘Without the plant, there are no butterflies.’”
Weeks later, Bonner received a call from Dr. Mattoni, who told him there was a butterfly needed help. That was how he met the Palos Verdes blue. Since then he’s been working for four years to help bring the butterfly back. He grows astragals, the only plant the butterfly eats. He collects butterflies and brings them into a lab to lay eggs. Then he puts new butterflies into the habitat.
The butterfly’s population, once almost zero, is now up to 900. For their work, Bonner and Dr. Mattoni received lots of awards. But for Bonner, he earned something more: he turned his life around.
For six years now Bonner has kept his promise to stay out of prison. While he’s bringing back the Palos Verdes blue, the butterfly has helped bring him back, too.
41. When he was young, Arthur Bonner _______.
A. broke the law and ended up in prison
B. was fond of shooting and hurt his mom
C. often laughed at people on the streets
D. often caught butterflies and took them home
42. Bonner came to know the Palos Verdes blue after he _______.
A. found the butterfly had died out B. won many prizes from his professor
C. met Dr. Mattoni, a professor of biology D. collected butterflies and put them into a lab
43. From the last sentence of the text, we learn that raising butterflies has ________.
A. made Bonner famous B. changed Bonner’s life
C. brought Bonner wealth D. enriched Bonner’s knowledge
44. What does the underlined phrase “put through” mean in the 3rd paragraph?
A. hurt B. recall C. remember D. experience
45. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. A Promise to Mom B. A Man Saved by Butterflies
C. A Story of Butterflies D. A Job Offered by Dr. Mattoni

阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150左右的英语短文。
Competition is common in every field of life. For example, the Olympic Games is the most famous competition in the world. In the four hundred meter swimming race, the swimmers plunge into the water at the signal. Each swings his or her arms and legs and tries his or her best to be the first. Also there is the competition for jobs, for promotion, for customers, and so on. We can say, in a certain sense, competition stimulates(激励) people's interest in work and helps society to go forward.
We often find that competition goes hand in trend with cooperation. Take, for example, a volley ball match. The members of the team cooperate with each other. One serves the ball, Then another passes the ball to a certain height for a still other to hit it over the net while the other members try to block it on its return. It requires good team work to win the game.
While we advocate(提倡) competition, we cannot forget cooperation. Human beings are social beings. No one can exist alone in the society. If you want to play the game well, you have to play with others. You cannot play single-handed and win. You have to cooperate with your playmates, which may make the social ladder for you to climb to the top. From cooperation we get help and understanding. With cooperation the world is progressing at peace and in harmony.

16. when。引导定语从句,先行词是moments,在从句中充当时间状语,故用when。
17. another。句意:当幸福之门关闭时,另一扇打开了。
18. that。此处是so…that…句型。句意为:但是我们常常眷恋着那道关上了的门,而看不见另一道已经为我们打开了的门。
19. who。引导定语从句,先行词是someone,在定语从句中做主语,指人,故用who。
20. what。引导表语从句并在从句中作表语,故用连接代词what。
21. happiest。由后文的the best of…可知,这里用形容词最高级,表示“最幸福的人”。
22. necessarily。修饰动词have,做状语,要用副词。
23. comes。由前面的have,make等谓语动词可知,用一般现在时;又因该定语从句中的主语that是替代先行词everything的,而everything是第三人称单数,故填comes。
24. forgotten。因past在这里是名词,前面需要定语;又因past与forget是被动关系,故用过去分词forgotten做定语。

Dear Mr. Green,
I am very excited to learn that we are going to start a magazine together.
It is indeed a wonderful idea and everyone hopes for its success. I would like the magazine to have three columns: News, Teachers' Advice and Students' Voice. From the News column we can learn about what is going on in both of our schools. In Teachers' Advice, our teachers can give us such help as we may not be able to get in the classroom while Students' Voice will allow us to freely express our thoughts and feelings about our lives and studies.
I believe that this magazine will surely strengthen our ties, and I am looking forward to reading it.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua

Competition enables people to get more achievements while cooperation is good to enhance team work and promote the understanding. Both are very important for us when we want to do something well.
When it comes to competition and cooperation, some people always emphasize competition but neglect cooperation. Because they believe only competition can help them defeat their counterparts. Besides, they think competition is the only way to lead to success.
But some others think cooperation is as important as competition. They think, on one hand, cooperation can build up trust between each other; on the other hand, cooperation can turn a small and weak business into a big and strong one.
In my opinion, both competition and cooperation are essential to success and thus should be emphasized at the same time. In order to succeed in life, we must learn to be both competitive and cooperative. The most important thing is know when to be competitive and when to be cooperative
