City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms, on the other hand, are associated with rural(農(nóng)村的) life. However, there are experts who thin

12、k skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century, some scientists suggest, almost 80% of the earths population could live in cities. In addition, the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for

13、 farming will be the same. If current farming practices dont change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, exper

14、ts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally, vertical farms w

15、ould reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day, it wouldnt be enough. For this reason, vertical farms would need additional light sources(來源), such as artific

16、ial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops. This more practical approach may be more achievable than the idea of farms in skyscrapers, researchers suggest. Experts agree that innovative(革新的) farming practices are needed to support the need for more food at afford

The coral is killed by the pressure of rising temperatures.Coral reefs are areas underwater where small creatures

20、live. The coral is hard material formed on the bottom of the sea by the skeletons of those creatures. But the world has lost about half its coral reefs in the last 30 years. Scientists are working to prevent their destruction. Due to global warming, over 90 percent of corals are expected to die by 2

21、050. “To lose coral reefs is to fundamentally undermine the health of a very large proportion of the human race,” said Ruth Gates, director of the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology.Why are coral reefs important? Coral reefs support a fourth of all marine species, as well as half a billion people wo

22、rldwide. They serve as barriers to protect coastlines from the storms. They provide billions of dollars from tourism, fishing and other trade. They are also used in medical research for cures for diseases. “Everyone should be concerned,” said biologist Ove Guldberg at Australias University of Queens

23、land. “This is not just some distant dive destination. This is the basic structure of the ecosystem we depend on.”The ocean is getting warmer. A rising temperature of just one to two degree Celsius can force coral to expel the algae (驅(qū)逐海藻) that live there. This leaves their white skeletons uncovered

24、. It is a process called “bleaching”. Sixteen percent of the worlds corals died of bleaching in 1998. The problem has become much worse in recent years.“Weve lost 50 percent of the reefs, but that means we still have 50 percent left,” said Ruth Gates, who is working in Hawaii to breed corals that ca

28、an. It all began a year ago，after the birth of his first child. Not wanting to appear rude，I asked him about the baby. The next week，not wanting him to think I had asked out of mere politeness the week before. I asked all about the baby again. Now I cant break the habit. I freeze whenever I see him

29、coming. The words Hows the baby？come out on their own. It holds me up. It holds him up. So why cant I stop it？The answer is that I want him to like me. Come to think of it，I want everyone to like me. My sister had the same problem with the caretaker of her block of flats: All he ever does is complai

Im worried in case I have a difficulty one day，and he wont lift a finger to help. What about at work？Richard Lawton，a management trainer，warns: Those managers who are actually liked

31、by most of their staff are always those to whom being liked is not the primary goal. The qualities that make managers popular are being honest with staff，treating them as human beings and observing common politeness like saying hello in the morning. To explain the point，Richard mentions the story of

32、 the company chairman who desperately wanted to be liked and who，after making one of his managers fired，said with moist（濕潤的）eyes that he was so，so sorry the man was leaving. The employee replied If you were that sorry，I wouldnt be leaving. The lesson being，therefore，that if you try too hard to be li

33、ked，people wont like you. The experts say it all starts in childhood. If children feel they can only get love from their parents by being good，says Zelda West-Meads，a marriage guidance consultant，they develop low self-confidence and become compulsive（難以抑制的）givers. But is there anything wrong in bein

It comes when you do things for others but feel bad about it. I am now trying hard to say to people I feel uncomfortable about saying this，but. . ，and te

One day, the backache I regularly suffered was more painful. I was brought up to think that t

40、he preferred way of dealing with aches is to do nothing and hope theyll go away, but I eventually went to the doctor. After examining me, he said, “You actually have bad posture (姿勢). Go off and learn the Alexander technique.” Three months later I could walk straighter and sit better.The Alexander t

41、echnique is a way of learning how you can get rid of harmful tension in your body. The teaching focuses on the neck, head and back. It trains you to use your body less severely and carry out the movements that we do all the time with less effort. There is little effort in the lessons themselves, whi

42、ch sets apart the Alexander technique from yoga or pilates, which are exercise-based. A typical lesson involves standing in front of a chair and learning to sit and stand with minimum effort. You spend some time lying on a bench with your knees bent to straighten the spine (脊椎) and relax your body w

43、hile the teacher moves your arms and legs to train you to move them correctly.The technique helps to break the bad habits accumulated over years. Try folding your arms the opposite way to normal. This is an example of a habit the body has formed which can be hard to break. Many of us carry our heads

44、 too far back. The head weighs four to six kilos, so any inappropriate posture can cause problems for the body. The technique teaches you to let go of the muscles holding the head back, allowing it to go back to its natural place on the top of our spines.So who was Alexander and how did he come up w

45、ith the technique? Frederick Alexander, an Australian actor born in 1869, found in his youth that he had vocal (聲音的) problems during performances. He analyzed himself and realized his posture was bad. He worked on improving it, with excellent results. He brought his technique to London and opened a

46、teacher-training school, which is still successful today.So if youre walking along the road one day with shoulders bent forward, feeling weighed down by your troubles, give a thought to the Alexander technique. It will help you walk tall again.1、What does the author suggest in Paragraph 1?AShe felt

47、no better after the treatment.BShe got bored with the Alexander technique.CShe was sceptical about the doctors method.DShe was unwilling to seek treatment for her backache.2、What is the principle of the Alexander technique?APhysical tension shouldnt be completely relieved.BThe technique shouldnt be

48、combined with other exercises.CThe practice of the technique shouldnt be attempted alone.DFamiliar physical actions shouldnt be done with much effort.3、What can we learn about Frederick Alexander?AHe managed to recover his vocal powers.BHe was eager to make a name for himself.CHe developed a form of

49、 exercise for actors.DHe had to leave home to develop his technique.4、What is the main idea of the passage?AThe occurrence of back pain is widespread.BAlexander improved the technique to treat body pain.CThe Alexander technique helps overcome posture problems.DPeople with back pain are victims of in

50、appropriate postures.25（10分）Its the oldest trick in the book: threaten the kids with a piece of coal, and theyll behave in the name of Santa Claus.Some people say that parents are purposely taking in their kids by lying to them about Santa. Is it purposely cheating or playing along with the fantasy?

51、 There are always those stories about the kindergarten teacher or parent who would tell the kids theres no Santa Claus, and theyd all start crying on the lost dreams.But if another teacher goes into a third-grade class and says there is a Santa Claus, theyll all laugh at her.What I say is that if th

52、eyre at the age when theyre still believing,why bother to end it?Then how long should parents pretend? Studies indicate that after eight,75 percent of kids dont believe.Thats the first “S” word that parents have to deal withits not sex. Its Santa.So the parent has to sit down and say it in a gentle

53、way. “Listen,Santa did exist. He was a person who gave to others and now that youre older, you can give to others and be Santa,too.”Do you think if a kid who believes in Santa walks into a third-or-fourth-grade class, his friends are going to tell him in a gentle way?No.Theyre going to make fun of h

54、im, and the kid is going to run home crying ,saying you lied to him. We all remember how the news is broken to us, so if we all remember, then theres some significance or we would have forgotten it. And its better to have a memory if someone doing it nicely than some kids laughing at you.Santa is al

55、so used as an instrument of guilt, because Santa knows everything. So even if the kids did bad things and got away with them, Santa knew. Still, Santa alone is not a good behavioral tool. You cant, say, in January, play the Santa card to your childbecause Christmas is too far away.1、According to the

56、 first paragraph, parents should_.Atelling the kids that Santa does not existBlie to their children on the problem of Santa ClausCnot tell the truth if their children believe Santa Claus existsDtell children in advance in case of being laughed at by classmates2、Why could your kid possibly be made fu

57、n of in the fourth grade?AHe tells a lie that he believes in Santa.BHe says Santa does exist in this world.CHe expects gentle talks from his friends.DHe gives to others and acts as Santa does.3、The underlined part in the last paragraph most probably means to_.Aplay cards with children happilyBtalk t

58、he kids out of doing something badCclarify the truth of Santa to the kids in a gentle wayDlet the children figure the problem out by themselves4、The authors intention in writing this text is to_.Aintroduce the detailed story of Santa Claus in all aspectsBprevent children from being laughed at by fel
