阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Even though it is just a few years old, the comic strip （连环漫画），Cul de Sac, has already
won many fans through its characters. So when cartoonist, Richard Thompson, announced that he
had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease （帕金森氏症)，his fans sat up and took notice.
One of the fans was Chris Sparks, a designer and web developer in North Carolina. Sparks was
building a website for Thompson when the cartoonist announced his disease. He started reading
more about Parkinson's disease through books and websites. There he found that people could form
public fund-raising teams to raise money for Parkinson's research. He quickly decided to form his
own team: Team Cui de Sac.
However, Sparks decided to take a different path. He has contacted dozens of cartoonists
around the world, who will contribute artworks inspired by the Cui de Sac strip. Thompson's
publisher, Andrews Mcmeel, has agreed to release them in a book next year. Some of the profits
from the book will go to the research. And after the book is released, the artworks will be auctioned
（拍卖）。比 All profits will go to the research team. The aim is to raise $450,000 for the foundation.
“We’ve already had around 80 people who say they are interested in contributing”, says Sparks.
Although many people with Parkinson's disease are private about their condition, Thompson is
not one of them. He's happy to put his support behind the project “I think we can make a difference,
says Sparks, who points out that his love of comics inspired him. I've been reading comics since I
was 5 years old, and most of the cartoonists I've met have been wonderful human beings," he says.
"They've made a difference in my life, and I hope to make a difference as well.”
21. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The influence of cartoonist Richard Thompson.
B. Great achievements made in the comic strip field.
C. Progress made in the study of Parkinson's disease.
D. Chris Sparks' contributions to Parkinson's research.

When you take to the seas on a cruise （游船度假）, you usually think you are leaving solid
ground behind, but the Celebrity Solstice brings a whole new experience to its passengers. Aboard
the 317m-long ship is a half-acre lawn（草坪）.The Celebrity Solstice is the first cruise ship ever to
house live grass.
Nikolas Asproudas, the ship, environmental officer told New Zealand News, “It was a crazy
idea to start with. For five years now, they have been saying that this lawn is the most walked lawn
in the world. It's a symbol of honor, particularly because the lawn on
the top deck of the ship has special challenges with growth at sea, including "bums" from the
salt water, which must be washed off immediately and clearance checks before the ship can pull in to
shore.
The lawn is grown in silica （二氧化硅）sand rather than soil, which not only reduces weight,
helping the ship's stability, but also agrees with restrictions and helps control pests that may
otherwise stay on the grass.
Asproudas sends the Captain of the ship a weekly report on the. status of the lawn. “We know
that the Australian and New Zealand authorities .are very strict with the grass, and of course, they
have to check before we come if everything's OK," said the Captain..
The lawn is a source of pride for Asproudas, so when there are problems with it, he says, “It
brings me some sad feelings, but I need to be strong, because I know that it will, recover within one
week" All of the crew's hard work to maintain the “backyard” is appreciated by its many , guests,
including some ： that say the Celebrity Solstice's lawn is better than theirs at home. Two recent
passengers aboard said, "We're having a drought at home so…it was brilliant!"
Though the option of walking barefoot through a grassy field on a moving cruise ship seems
terrific, there are many other ships that are trying to outdo one another with even more surprising
guest options.
24. What is a special challenge that the lawn feces?
A. Bad weather. B. Salt water. C. Rare soil. D. Strict restrictions.
25. What might be talked about if the passage is continued?
A. Efforts to maintain the lawn. B. Other options on the cruise.
C. Guest choices on some other cruises. D. The crew members of the cruise.
26. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. The Advantages of a Cruise Ship
B. A Cruise Ship that Has a Backyard
C. The Building of a Special Cruise Ship
D. A Cruise Ship that Protects the Environment
C
Earthworms don't move fast. But humans can accelerate the worms' spread. Fishermen often
use invasive （蔓延性的）earthworms to catch fish. Many have introduced invasive earthworms to
rivers, streams and lakes previously unexposed to these animals. Gardener who use earthworms to
make their soil rich may unknowingly introduce invasive ones. The worms even give rides in the
mud on wheels, potted plants and road materials shipped around the nation.
But they're not everywhere yet. In the Great Lakes region, "20 percent of the land is
earthworm-free," says Cindy Hale, a research biologist. Of the remaining 80 percent of land half of
the land has fewer than two earthworm species — meaning there isn't yet too much impact on the
ecosystem, she explains. For these regions, she says, now is the time to take action. According to
Hale, educating the public, especially fishermen, is one approach to stopping the spread of invasive
earthworms. Identifying which lands are currently earthworm-free is another.
Ryan Hueffmeier, a program coordinator for Great Lakes Worm Watch, has been working on a
model that will help create large maps of areas with minimal （ 最 小 的 ） or no damage from
earthworms. Ultimately, landowners can use it to identify earthworm activity on their property. Once
identified, lands with minimal or no earthworm damage should be protected.
But scientists suspect that once invasive earthworms arrive they can't be removed And even if
all could be, affected forests might never return to the way they were. “It's very much a story of
learning to live with them," concludes Lee Frelich of the University of Minnesota's Center for Forest
Ecology.
Forest ecologists have called earthworms "ecosystem engineers" because they can change or
create habitats that otherwise would not be present. Whether this is a good thing depends on the
situation.
“What the earthworms do and how we value it is what really matters.” said Hale. "In one place
— farm fields or gardens - we really like European earthworms and what they do, so we consider
them good. In native hardwood forests, we really don't like what they do - so we consider them bad.
You really have to understand how an organism（微生物）affects an ecosystem. Things aren't black
and white.”
27.Why are fishermen and gardeners mentioned in the first paragraph?
A To attract more people to fishing and gardening.
B. To introduce different uses of invasive earthworms.
C. To stress the importance of invasive earthworms to humans.
D. To show humans' effect on the spread of invasive earthworms.
28. What is Hale's advice on protecting the Great Lakes region from invasive earthworms?
A Finding out areas free of earthworms.
B. Extending a ban on the fishing industry.
C Making maps of areas with most earthworms.
D. Informing the public of different earthworm species.
29. What is Hale's attitude towards invasive earthworms?
A. Objective. B. Positive. C. Ambiguous. D. Doubtful.
30. Where is the text probably from?
A. A biology textbook B. An official report.
C. A science magazine. D. A research paper.

When the moon passes between the Sun and the Earthy the resulting view of the Sun is called a
solar eclipse （日食）.Solar eclipses are beautiful astronomical events and many people across the
world travel to faraway places to get a clear view of the phenomenon. 31 Others choose special
eyewear.
It is believed that a pregnant woman with a baby should not view a solar eclipse. They are often
told that their child will be badly formed if they view a solar eclipse. However, various scientific
authorities have stated over and over again that there is no harm at all in viewing a solar eclipse with
the right eye gear. 32 .
It is important, however, that you view a solar eclipse with the right eye gear. Staring right at
the sun could permanently damage the eyes. It is wrong to assume that the sun can be looked at after
the moon blocks out a majority of it. 33 .
If you want to view the eclipse, you have to get special glasses. As opposed to popular belief
sunglasses and dark films do NOT protect our eyes. 34 You can do this by fixing a telescope and
focusing the image onto a sheet of paper. You can clearly see the eclipse on the sheet of paper. You
should never look directly at the eclipse through the telescope.
Similarly, you can make a tiny hole on an opaque （不透明的）sheet of paper and let the light
passing through fall on a sheet of paper. 35 Alternatively, you can watch it live on TV which is the
safest way of viewing a solar eclipse!
A. It is best if you purchase eye wear.
B. So they need not worry to view a solar eclipse.
C. Viewing a solar eclipse directly is a strict no-no.
D. Some .of them watch the event through special telescopes.
E. This method is an effective way to watch an eclipse as well.
F. To safely watch a solar eclipse, wear protective eclipse glasses.
G. The best way to see a solar eclipse is by viewing its projected image.

Coffee is probably world's least expensive success power tool to increase focus, drive and even
the life span. 56 （fortunate） we may not be enjoying its benefits or pleasure too much longer.
According to ecologists, there is a good chance 57 the varieties of coffee that we drink today
58 （be） extinct in 20 or 30 years. The problem, of course, is the pace of climate change.
Coffee is a crop that is only grown in a thin band 59 （call） the “coffee belt” close to
equator（赤道），which is extremely vulnerable（易受…伤害的）to climate change. If the air is too
hot 60 too cold, it prevents the growth of coffee plant. Climate change also creates 61
（environment） stress, which spreads pests and plant diseases Almost all the coffee grown in the
world today is one of two species, arabica or robuasta, both of 62 might be wiped out in this
way. There are other species existing only in Ethiopia, 63 country that climate change is
happening. In other words, climate change is eating away the root source that we might turn to 64
replacement species.
What to do? Well, take the time 65 （enjoy） each cup of coffee you drink.

It was our turn to open our presents this particular Christmas morning. The living room was
already covered with tom wrapping paper. Obviously, the children could hardly wait to discover the
hidden treasures, which they had expected for nearly a month. Now we adults sat around the room
with our presents at our feet, slowly removing the paper, trying to maintain our dignity in front of the
children.
My wife, Brenda, and her family have a tradition of getting each other gag （恶作剧） gifts.
This always makes me a bit uneasy at Christmas or my birthday, never knowing what form of
embarrassment lies waiting for me under the thin borders of the wrapping paper.
Recently, my six-year-old daughter Christy seemed to busy herself with something while I was
playing computer video flight games. Now she was standing directly in front of me. The excitement
of the moment just beamed across her face. It was everything she could do to keep herself from
helping me rip the paper from each present Finally, I came to the last gift and with my natural
Sherlock Holmes ability, I concluded that this had to be the gag gift. With everyone looking on, I
decided to go ahead and get it over with—just let them have their laugh—and I tore the paper and
there it was …a toy airplane about two inches long. Our holiday guests started giggling to
themselves as 1 looked up to my wife with an unpleasant smile on my face and blurted out, “A toy
airplane? Are you kidding me?”
Brenda gave me the look-that look that always tells me 1 have just said something wrong and
should have given it a second thought. I had failed to look at the name tag （标 签）before I opened
the present to see who it was from. As I picked up the paper from the floor and read the name tag,
my heart sank.

第二节
On the tag were the letters that read, "To Dad, Love Christy". I felt so agonized and regretful to
see her joy replaced by a look of total embarrassment and humiliation. She must be praying that
nobody would discover whom the gift came from. And it wasn't just any present. She knew I was
fascinated with planes. I quickly knelt down and embraced Christy tightly, willing to give anything
to take back those words. I explained I had thought it was from Mom, but since it came from her,
that made it different. However, nothing I said could remove the hurt in her heart, (93 words)
Staring at the gift, I suddenly thought of a way to lift her up. 1 took that toy airplane in my hand
and began making vivid airplane noises. I taxied(滑行)onto the “runway”， and accelerated and it
was soon in the air. I put so much excitement into that airplane that other children wanted a turn
playing with it. And just like a little selfish kid I said, “No, this is mine!” It wasn't long before Christy
believed it was really a charming gift and smiled again. Now, 1 keep the little plane as a reminder of
my girl's love and also, the power of words. (96 words)
