Poverty(貧困) in remote areas in China is virtually a great obstacle for the Chinese to get common progress; thus, it is urgent for us to help the people there to shake off pove

12、rty the sooner the better. For this aim, the government has already sent technicians and experts to poverty-stricken areas to help boost local agricultural production and teach the locals new techniques. The Ministry of Labor has also trained many rural laborers through different programs. But all t

13、hese are not enough. Several other ways have been proposed as follows.First of all, the government should encourage a small part of the people in the remote areas to get wealthy ahead of others by equipping them with relevant funds and agricultural technology. These “better-offs” can not only set a

14、good example but give confidence to the poorer in their efforts to get rid of poverty. When all the people get rich, the general level of living standard can be greatly improved. With their living standard improved, they can attach greater importance to environmental protection and are willing to in

15、put considerable amount of money to educate their children. Only in this way is a sustainable development guaranteed.Secondly, we must call upon people in all walks of life throughout the country, especially those wealthy citizens in coastal areas to help those struggling below poverty line in poor

16、remote regions out. We must realize that only after all Chinese people live a comfortable life can we be peacefully enjoying material prosperity in life. Helps can come in various forms-donating money to the poor family and books to school drop-outs, college graduates volunteering to work in the mos

17、t needed regions, bringing knowledge to them, etc.The last but not the least, the government should raise the rate of tax on the rich. This can shorten the gap between the poor and the rich as well as benefit the countrys revenues(財政收入) whose better part is in turn allocated to the poor remote areas

18、.Admittedly, it is never easy to cast off the shadow of poverty in the remote areas completely in the short run. But every one of us should go all out to help those in poverty, we are confident that our country will be more powerful and prosperous in the process of relieving poverty.1、What does the

21、ny. In its natural habitat, the sun bear spends over 80 percent of its active waking time in daylight.But when disturbed by human activity, that changes dramatically. In areas where people are pushing into the sun bears habitat, the animals are spending 90 percent of their waking time after dark. Ef

22、fectively, the threat of human presence is making the sun bear change into “the moon bear”.Led by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, the study found that human activity is driving scores of mammals to shift their activity from the daytime into the dark hours of the night. As many

23、animals have already been forced out of their local habitats, others are attempting to avoid interaction with humans by separating themselves in time rather than in space.For the work, the researchers examined the behaviors of 64 mammal species, including deer, tigers, boars, and, of course, sun bea

24、rs. They observed increased nocturnal (夜間的) behavior in a large majority of them, with species that are naturally active during the day tending to shift their activity to after dark, and those that are naturally nocturnal becoming more so. The mammals affected ranged across body size, habitat type,

25、region of the world, and diet.Human activity of all sorts affect animals，lives, including activities like hunting, agriculture and land development, harvesting local natural resources, even hiking or walking through wild areas. Sport hunting in the Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe drove antelopes to

26、 spend more of their active waking hours at night, restricting their access to water. Similarly, hikers in the Santa Cruz Mountains in California made coyotes (郊狼) more nocturnal, forcing them to find new preys (獵物) among traditionally nocturnal animals.The researchers warn that profound shifts in t

27、he natural behavior patterns of so many species disturb dynamics that have evolved over generations, leading to a series of unknown effects on the entire ecosystems.1、What did the study find?AMore animals separate themselves in space.BHuman activity changes animals way of life.CMany animals were pus

28、hed out of their local habitats.DThe sun bear spends over 80% waking time in daylight.2、What does the underlined word “that” refer to?AThe sun bear.BThe waking time.CHuman activity.DThe natural habitat.3、What can we infer from paragraph 5?AAntelopes have easier access to water.BCoyotes have to prey

29、on new types for survival.CHuman activity shortens animals sleeping time.DAnimals have managed to escape interaction with humans.4、What does the author want to tell us in the text?AHuman threat makes the sun bear nocturnal.BAnimals are badly hurt by human presence.CAnimals become more adaptable than

30、ks to human.DEcosystems may be reshaped due to human activity.23（8分） Every person plans to run off to some tropical isle, but few do. Real life, family, work, and monetary limitations get in the way. Ian Fleming let none of these considerations stop him.After the war, Fleming set down his schedule.

31、The first week of January saw him leave England and travel to Jamaica. The first week of March saw his return. He accepted his job at Kemsley newspapers without compromise this portion of the year would be set aside for Jamaica or he would look elsewhere for employment.For 6 years Fleming traveled e

32、ach winter to Jamaica, lounging in paradise, romancing women, chasing the sunset, but it was not until he faced the pressure of a married woman who was pregnant with his child did Fleming start the writers journey which would change his life and popular culture forever. As Fleming waited in Jamaica

33、for Annes divorce to become final, he wrote the first draft of a novel, Casino Royale.Flemings career as a writer deserves more examination than can be offered here, but suffice it to say, over the next 12 years, Ian Fleming transformed his elite existence, his arrogance, his style, and his acid wit

34、 into some of the greatest thrillers ever written. Fleming incurred the respect of authors as diverse as Raymond Chandler, Kingsley Amis, and Edith Sitwell. His fans included John, Jackie, and Bobby Kennedy, and his social circle included Prime Minister Anthony Eden, Evelyn Waugh, and Somerset Maugh

35、am.Fleming filled out the 12 years of Bond with great adventure journalism. Even in stories which had little action or pay off, such as his short non-fiction book, The Diamond Smugglers, the “Fleming-flair” ensured exciting reading. He wrote the “Atticus” column for the Sunday Times, proving a wonde

36、rful conduit for inside intelligence information, and clever rebukes(指責).Regardless of book sales or family obligations, Fleming managed to live the life he wanted. As the years passed, his passion for golfing increased so he took more time with it. Flemings long-term fascination with America grew,

37、so he traveled there more often.Ian Flemings full life caught up with him through his heart. It may be that years of drinking and smoking took their toll, or that the butter-rich cooking Fleming loved was the culprit. Or maybe it was just genetics. Whatever the cause, Flemings health declined in the

38、 late 1950s. This plus anxieties in the marriage increased Flemings depression. With the success of Bond, the world came knocking at Flemings door, and he had a harder time shutting those out that he did not want in his life.Nonetheless, Fleming fought the loosing battle of his weakening heart by th

39、rowing more fuel on the fire. He continued to drink and smoke, making some excuses but not many. He wrote books he wanted to read, and traveled the world with style and authority. By this time, Fleming had already earned his own fortune, created his own identity, and ruled his own literary empire.1、

40、According to the second paragraph, Fleming accepted the job offered by Kemsley newspaper _.Aand had to give up his yearly holiday plan to JamaicaBbecause he was offered to work in Jamaica every winterCso that he wouldnt have to look for employment elsewhereDon condition that he took two months off t

41、o Jamaica every year2、What led Fleming follow the path of writing?AHis dream to be a writer.BThe pressure from a woman.CHis potential for literature.DHis state of health.3、When he began writing, Fleming never expected that _.Ahe would change popular cultureBhe could get over the pressureCAnne would

42、have a divorceDAnne would keep his child4、Flemings thrillers reflected his _.Asense for popular cultureBrelationship with AnneCown personalitiesDlife at Jamaica5、The fact that “Fleming filled out the 12 years of Bond with great adventure journalism” shows that _.AFleming took up journalism when he f

43、inished Bonds adventuresBFleming put Bond through many thrilling adventuresCFleming described Bond as an adventurous journalistDFleming experienced Bonds adventures when he was a journalist6、According to the passage, Fleming died of _.Aan unidentified reasonBa disease of the heartCan unknown family

44、diseaseDover drinking and smoking24（8分）Comedy and PsychologyEarlier this year I did a part-time comedy course. The class was taught by Ryan, a professional comedian.I had performed a show, which wasnt originally meant to be a comedy. However, the audience laughed at my first joke, then continued to

45、laugh throughout the routines that were meant to be serious. So it was the audience who told me I was funny, but I didn t understand why or how to control the comic (滑稽的) moments. So, I joined the course to learn.“Turn off your editor that makes you say the right thing and remember how to be a child

46、,” explained Ryan. “Dont try to be clever. Dont try too hard to be funnyand knowing all about the theory of humor is unlikely to help you much. Just behave in a silly way. Thats what people want to see on stage.”Ryan would help us loosen up by saying things like, “Wander around talking to others, bu

47、t make sure that youre the lowest status person here.”I d say that understanding the psychology of humor has actually helped. Recently I came across the book Inside Jokes: Using Humor to Reverse-Engineer the Mind. Its main idea is that any self-directed intelligent system will need to correct its ow

48、n fault. Theres a risk that the occasional error will be made. If this was boring or burdensome, wed be less willing to do it. However, evolution has made the process fun.Heres a joke in the book: Two fish are in a tank. One says to the other, “Do you know how to drive this thing?” It works on the p

49、rinciple that we have started to imagine one thingthat the tank is the typical container people keep fish inand, just in time, the following words tell us that our first assumption was wrongits a heavy vehicle. For correctly figuring out the error, we are rewarded with a pleasurable feeling. The jok

50、e is an efficient way of encouraging this natural reaction, and comedians have become experts in slightly touching this mental funny-bone in order to make us laugh.Ryan was right when he said that knowing the theory of humor wouldnt help us that much as a comedy.During one exercise in the course, fo

51、ur of us were told to perform an opera. Susan and Caroline sang earnestly on either side of the stage, and I brought Henry to the floor, where we wrestled (摔跤) each other like out-of-control teenagers. The rest of the group was in uncontrollable fits of laughter. As a performer, I ll never appreciat

52、e just why it seemed so funny. But the point is that I would never have written this on the paper. It was a joyous, found moment.1、Why did the author attend the comedy course?AHe wanted to see how the theories worked in practice.BHe discovered he had some natural ability in comedy.CHe worried about

53、how other performers would find him.DHe got unpleasant experiences when performing a comedy.2、Ryan required the people on the comedy course to_.Acopy their favorite performanceBimagine other people s reactionsChelp themselves feel comfortableDbehave in a more playful manner3、What is the purpose of t

54、he joke mentioned in Paragraph 4?ATo discuss what humor brings about exactly.BTo give an example of another kind of humor.CTo prove the point about psychology of humor.DTo show why some people are funnier than others.4、What view does the author put forward in the end?AVisual humor is what appeals to

55、 people most.BWhat people find funny is often unpredictable.CTheories explaining humor tend to be mistaken.DLearning comic skills proves to be a difficult task.25（10分）If youve ever had to chop an onion，you probably know that its one of the most annoying cooking experiencesIt just fills your eyes wit

56、h tearsScientists and farmers have been working on a solution to this problem for decades，and theyve apparently come up with a tearless onionCalled the“Sunion”，this new vegetable is the result of a natural cross-breeding program thats been going on farms in Nevada and Washington since the 1980sIts s

57、upposedly a sweet，mild-tasting onion that doesnt leave that strong，pungent aftertaste，but what really sets it apart from most other onion varieties is that it doesnt cause teary eyes when its choppedWhen you cut into a normal onion，it releases a compound called lachrymatory-factor synthase，andwhen t

58、hat hits your eyes，your body produces tearsNow，the interesting thing about regular onions is that the amounts of lachrymatory-factor synthase increase the longer the vegetables are stored，so the older they，the more you cryIn Sunions，on the other hand，the levels of that annoying compound drop the mor

59、e time goes by，until it no longer has any effect on your eyes when you cut itThats what Sunion growers are claiming anyway，but reports from those lucky enough to have tried them seem to confirm these claimsThe Huffington Post had three of its reporters chop some Sunions，and apparently，none of them s

60、hed a single tearAccording to the Washington Post，they dont have the pungency of regular onions and are so sweet that you can eat them“l(fā)ike popcorn”So the good news is that tearless onions are now a real thingThe bad news is that they are currently only grown in Washington and Nevada，and even though
