Canadian smartphone maker Research In Motion (RIM), which makes the BlackBerry, says
it’s back. The company is 36to reclaim a market it once dominated by 37 two new devices. The
last few years have been a painful time for the company as customers deserted its platform in 38

Two brand new devices are perhaps a fresh 41for a company that has seen its global market

Besides the technical and cosmetic (外观上的) updates, Heins says the company will no
longer be called RIM or Research In Motion.
“Our customers use a BlackBerry, our 50work for BlackBerry and our shareholders are
owners of BlackBerry. From today on, we are BlackBerry 51in the world,” he said.
Shareholders will be watching if customers 52 the new devices. The company’s stock has
dropped as much as 90 percent in the last four years as it lost 53to competitors. But company

第三部分 阅读理解(共 15 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 30 分)
请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Science has a lot of uses.It can uncover laws of nature,cure diseases,make bombs,and help
bridges to stand up.Indeed science is so good at what it does that there’s always a temptation(诱
惑)to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful.David Brooks,author of The Social
Animal:The Hidden Sources of Love,Character,and Achievement,appears to be the latest in a long
line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.
Brooks gained fame for several books.His latest book The Social Animal,however,is more
ambitious and serious than his earlier books.It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty
topics.The book focuses on big questions:What has science revealed about human nature?What
are the sources of character?And why are some people happy and successful while others aren’t?
To answer these questions,Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines(学科).Considering
this,you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts.But Brooks has structured his book in
an unorthodox(非常规的),and perhaps unfortunate,way.Instead of introducing scientific
theories,he tells a story,within which he tries to make his points,perhaps in order to keep the
reader’s attention.So as Harold and Erica,the hero and heroine in his story,live through
childhood,we hear about the science of child development,and as they begin to date we hear about
the theory of sexual attraction.Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.
On the whole,Brooks’s story is acceptable if uninspired.As one would expect,his writing is 英语试题 第 8 页 共 15 页
mostly clear and,to be fair,some chapters stand out above the rest.I enjoyed,for instance,the
chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own.While Harold and Erica are certainly
not strong or memorable characters,the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie
elsewhere.These problems partly involve Brooks’s attempt to translate his tale into science.
56.The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to______.
A.illustrate where science can be applied
B.demonstrate the value of Brooks’s new book
C.remind the reader of the importance of science
D.explain why many writers use science in their works
57.According to the author,which of the following could be a strength of the book?
A.Its strong basis. B.Its convincing points.
C.Its clear writing. D.Its memorable characters.
58.What is the author’s general attitude towards the book?
A.Contradictory. B.Supportive. C.Cautious. D.Critical.
59.What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?
A.Problems with the book.
B.Brooks’s life experiences.
C.Death of the characters.
D.Brooks’s translation skills.
B
What Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isn’t a prerequisite for a modern
grow-your-own lifestyle.On a mere 1/10 of an acre in Los Angeles,Loe and her family
grow,can(装罐)and preserve much of the food they consume.
Loe is a master food preserver,gardener and canning expert.She also operates a
website,where she shares her tips and recipes,with the goal of demonstrating that everyone has the
ability to control what’s on their plate.
Loe initially went to school to become an engineer,but she quickly learned that her
enthusiasm was mainly about growing and preparing her own food.“I got into cooking my own
food and started growing my own herbs(香草)and foods for that fresh flavor,”she said.Engineer by
day,Loe learned cooking at night school.She ultimately purchased a small piece of land with her 英语试题 第 9 页 共 15 页
husband and began growing their own foods.
“I teach people how to live farm-fresh without a farm,”Loe said.Through her website Loe
emphasizes that“anybody can do this anywhere.”Got an apartment with a balcony(阳台)?Plant
some herbs.A window?Perfect spot for growing.Start with herbs,she recommends,because“they’re
very forgiving.”Just a little of the herbs“can take your regular cooking to a whole new level,”she
added.“I think it’s a great place to start.”Then?Try growing something from a seed,she said,like a
tomato or some tea.
Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does.With every planted food,Loe
noted,there’s a moment when it’s bursting with its absolute peak flavor.“I try and keep it in a time
capsule in a canning jar,”Loe said.“Canning for me is about knowing what’s in your food,knowing
where it comes from.”
In addition to being more in touch with the food she’s eating,another joy comes from passing
this knowledge and this desire for good food to her children:“Influencing them and telling them
your opinion on not only being careful what we eat but understanding the bigger picture,”she
said,“that if we don’t take care of the earth,no one will.”
60.The underlined word“prerequisite”(Para.1)is closest in meaning to“______”.
A.recipe B.substitute C.requirement D.challenge
61.Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs?
A.They are used daily.
B.They are easy to grow.
C.They can grow very tall.
D.They can be eaten uncooked.
62.According to Loe,what is the benefit of canning her planted foods?
A.It can preserve their best flavor.
B.It can promote her online sales.
C.It can better her cooking skills.
D.It can improve their nutrition.
63.What is the“the bigger picture”(Para.6)that Loe wishes her children to understand?
A.The knowledge about good food.
B.The way to live a grow-our-own life.英语试题 第 10 页 共 15 页
C.The joy of getting in touch with foods.
D.The responsibility to protect our earth.
C
The oddness of life in space never quite goes away.Here are some examples.
First consider something as simple as sleep.Its position presents its own challenges.The main
question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag.If you leave your arms
out,they float free in zero gravity,often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny ballet(芭
蕾)dancer.“I’m an inside guy,”Mike Hopkins says,who returned from a six-month tour on the
International Space Station.“I like to be wrapped up.”
On the station,the ordinary becomes strange.The exercise bike for the American astronauts
has no handlebars.It also has no seat.With no gravity,it’s just as easy to pedal violently.You can
watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want.But station
residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long.Without gravity to help circulate
air,the carbon dioxide you exhale(呼气)has a tendency to form an invisible(隐形的)cloud around
your head.You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.
Leroy Chiao,54,an American retired astronaut after four flights,describes what happens even
before you float out of your seat.“Your inner ear thinks you’re falling.Meanwhile your eyes are
telling you you’re standing straight.That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel
sick.”Within a couple of days—truly terrible days for some—astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the
panicky signals from the inner ear,and space sickness disappears.
Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous.For
instance,astronauts lose bone mass.That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National
Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA)puts it right on the workday schedule.The focus on
fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronaut
healthy.NASA is worried about two things:recovery time once astronauts return home,and,more
importantly,how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would
take to make a round-trip to Mars.
64.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?
A.Deciding on a proper sleep position.
B.Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag.英语试题 第 11 页 共 15 页
C.Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly.
D.Finding a right time to go to sleep.
65.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when______.
A.they circle around on their bikes
B.they use microcomputers without a stop
C.they exercise in one place for a long time
D.they watch a movie while pedaling
66.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because______.
A.their senses stop working
B.they have to stand up straight
C.they float out of their seats unexpectedly
D.their brains receive contradictory messages
67.One of NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is______.
A.how much exercise they do on the station
B.how they can remain healthy for long in space
C.whether they can recover after returning home
D.whether they are able to go back to the station
D
“I see you’ve got a bit of water on your coat,”said the man at the petrol station.“Is it raining
out there?”“No,it’s pretty nice,”I replied,checking my sleeve.“Oh,right.A pony(马驹)bit me
earlier.”
As it happened,the bite was virtually painless:more the kind of small bite you might get from
a naughty child.The pony responsible was queuing up for some ice cream in the car park near
Haytor,and perhaps thought I’d jumped in ahead of him.
The reason why the ponies here are naughty is that Haytor is a tourist-heavy area and tourists
are constantly feeding the ponies foods,despite signs asking them not to.By feeding the
ponies,tourists increase the risk of them getting hit by a car,and make them harder to gather during
the area’s annual pony drift(迁移).
The purpose of a pony drift is to gather them up so their health can be checked,the baby ones
can be stopped from feeding on their mothers’ milk,and those who’ve gone beyond their limited 英语试题 第 12 页 共 15 页
area can be returned to their correct area.Some of them are also later sold,in order to limit the
number of ponies according to the rules set by Natural England.
Three weeks ago,I witnessed a small near-disaster a few miles west of here.While walking,I
noticed a pony roll over on his back.“Hello!”I said to him,assuming he was just rolling for fun,but
he was very still and,as I got closer,I saw him kicking his legs in the air and breathing heavily.I
began to properly worry about him.Fortunately,I managed to get in touch with a Dartmoor’s
Livestock Protection officer and send her a photo.The officer immediately sent a local farmer out
to check on the pony.The pony had actually been trapped between two rocks.The farmer freed
him,and he began to run happily around again.
Dartmoor has 1,000 or so ponies,who play a critical role in creating the diversity of species in
this area.Many people are working hard to preserve these ponies,and trying to come up with plans
to find a sustainable(可持续的)future for one of Dartmoor’s most financially-troubled elements.
68.Why are tourists asked not to feed the ponies?
A.To protect the tourists from being bitten.
B.To keep the ponies off the petrol station.
C.To avoid putting the ponies in danger.
D.To prevent the ponies from fighting.
69.One of the purposes of the annual pony drift is______.
A.to feed baby ponies on milk
B.to control the number of ponies
C.to expand the habitat for ponies
D.to sell the ponies at a good price
70.What was the author’s first reaction when he saw a pony roll on its back?
A.He freed it from the trap.
B.He called a protection officer.
C.He worried about it very much.
D.He thought of it as being naughty.英语试题 第 13 页 共 15 页
第四部分 任务型阅读(共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分)
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information
from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Many of us invest valuable time,energy and money planning our vacations.We do this
because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us.Research proves this
feeling without a doubt.Vacations help us perform better at work,improve our sleep quality and
cushion us against depression.
Yet,despite these benefits,many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was
OK—but not great.In order to change this,some mistakes should be avoided.A classic one for
vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trips that have too many
components(组成部分).Perhaps you’re planning a trip to Europe,seven cities in 10 days,and you
realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list.Sounds fine in
theory,but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what
psychologists call mindfulness—time to take in our new surroundings,time to be present and
absorb our travel experiences.Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues
such as how to find a good flight deal,how to get from A to B,or which destinations to add or
subtract from our journey.These issues may seem important,but our psychological state of mind is
far more important.
Actually,vacation happiness is based on the following top rules.First,choose your travel
companions wisely,because nothing contributes more significantly to a trip than the right
companions.Second,don’t spend your vacation time in a place where everything is too expensive
so as to maintain a positive mood.Third,shop wisely,for meaningful experiences provide more
long-term happiness than physical possessions.英语试题 第 14 页 共 15 页
