The Cold Places
The Arctic is a polar region. It surrounds the North Pole.
Like Antarctica, the Arctic is a land of ice and snow. Antarctica holds the record for a low temperature reading ----- 125 Fahrenheit below zero. Readings of 85 degrees below zero are common in both the Arctic and Antarctica. Winter temperatures average 30 degrees below zero in the Arctic. At the South Pole the winter is about 73 degrees below zero.
One thing alone makes it almost impossible for men to live in Antarctica and in parts of the Arctic. This one thing is the low temperature --- the killing chill of the far North and the polar South.
To survive, men must wear the warmest possible clothing. They must build windproof shelters. They must keep heaters going at all times. Not even for moment can they be unprotected against the below-zero temperature.
Men have a way of providing for themselves. Polar explorers wrap themselves in warm coats and furs. The cold makes life difficult. But the explorers can stay alive.
What about animals? Can they survive? Do we find plants? Do we find life in the Arctic and the Antarctica? Yes, we do. There is life in the oceans. There is life on land.
Antarctica, as we have seen, is a cold place indeed. But this has not always been the case. Expedition scientists have discovered that Antarctica may have been much like our own.
Explores have discovered coal in Antarctica. This leads them to believe that Antarctica at one time was a land of swamps and forests. Heat and moisture must have kept the trees in the forests alive.
1. The lowest temperature that man has ever known was recorded in Antarctica.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
2. Winter temperatures average 85 degrees below zero in Antarctica.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
3. The Arctic and Antarctica are no man's lands because of their notorious coldness.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
4. Polar explorers can stay alive without heaters and windproof shelters.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
5. Despite the hostile environment, both animals and plants can be found in the oceans and on land in polar areas.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
6. As discovered by expedition scientists, Antarctica has not always been so cold as it is today, so has the Arctic.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
7. At one time, the weather in Antarctica was so warm and damp that trees grew there.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

Earthquake
1 Every year earthquakes are responsible for a large number of deaths and a vast amount of destruction in various parts of the world. most of these damaging earthquakes occur either in a narrow belt which surrounds the Pacific Ocean or in a line which extends from Burma to the Alps in Europe. Some of the destruction is directly caused by the quake itself. An example of this is the collapse of buildings as a result of the quake itself. Other damage results from landslides or major fires which are initiated by the quake.
2 These are about a million quakes a year. Fortunately, however, not all of them are destructive. The intensity of an earthquake is measured on the Richter Scale, which goes from 0 upward. The highest scale recorded to date is 8.9. major damage generally occurs from quakes ranging upward from 6.0.
3 The actual cause of the quake itself is the breaking of rocks at or below the earth's surface. This is produced by pressure which scientists believe may be due to a number of reasons, two of which are the expansion and contraction of the earth's crust and continental drift.
4 In order to limit the damage and to prevent some of the suffering resulting from earthquakes, scientists are working on ways to enable accurate prediction. Special instruments are used to help people record, for example, shaking of the earth. Scientists are trying to find methods that will enable them to indicate the exact time, location and size of an earthquake.
5 Certain phenomena have been observed which are believed to be the signs of imminent earthquakes. These include strange behaviors of some animals, the changes in the content of mineral water, etc. The magnetic properties of rocks may also display special pattern before earthquakes happen.
1. paragraph 2__________ A. Earthquakes forecast
2. paragraph 3__________ B. Historical records of earthquakes
3. paragraph 4__________ C. Intensities of earthquakes
4. paragraph 5__________ D. Cause of earthquakes
E. Indications of earthquakes
F. Damaging earthquakes
5. Not all damage during an earthquake is caused ____________.
6. Not all earthquakes are strong enough ___________.
7. Scientists have been working hard to warn people ____________.
8. Earthquakes can be predicted by observing ______________.
A. by the quake itself
B. not be prevented
C. to cause damage of property and loss of lives
D. of a possible earthquake
E. the unusual behaviors of some animals
F. the strong behaviors of human beings

Losing Weight
Girls as young as 1 0 years old are dieting and in danger of developing unhealthy attitudes about weight,body image and food,a group of Toronto researchers reported Tuesday.
Their study of 2,279 girls aged 10 to 14 showed that while the vast majority had healthy weights,nearly a third felt they were overweight and were trying to lose pounds.Even at the tender agez of 10,nearly 32 per cent of girls felt“too fat'’and 31 per cent said they were trying to diet.
McVey,a researcher at.the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto,and her colleagues analyzed data collected in a number of surveys of southern Ontario school girls between 1 993 and 2003,reporting their findings in Tuesday’s issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
Nearly 80 per cent of the girls had a healthy body weight and only 7.2 per cent were considered overweight using standard weight-to.height ratios.Most researchers suggest the rate of overweight children in this country is several times higher than that figure.
Nearly 30 per cent of the girls reported they Were currently trying to lose weight,though few admitted to dangerous behavior such as self-induced vomiting.
Still,a test that measured attitudes towards eating showed 10.5 per cent of survey Participants were already at risk of developing an eating disorder.
We’re not talking about kids who’ve been prescribed a diet because they’re above average weight or overweight. We’re talking about children who are within a healthy weight range。And they have taken it upon themselves to diet to lose weight,”McVey said,acknowledging she found the rates disturbing.She said striking a balance between healthy weights and healthy attitudes towards food and body image is a complex task,with no easy solutions.

Mother knows the best?
Once while being prepped for a television interview, I was chatting with the host about stay-at-home fathers.I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay-at-home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife.Many families now take earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home.
At that point,one of the male crew members commented, almost to himself but loud
enough for my benefit,“It should be the better parent who stays home.”A lot of guys say things like that.Usually it’s code for, “My wife(read:any woman)is the better parent.”
I was a stay-at-home father for eight years, so his declaration made me bristle.It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if 1 was a “better” parent than my wife.
I think men shoot themselves in the foot with this kind of thinking.I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better” parent:She had spent more time with Ry,could read him better and calm him more quickly.And given a choice.he’d have picked her over me.But as she was the more employable one.my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.
Know what? I caught up.Because of the increased time I spent with him.I soon knew Ry well,understood what he needed and could look after him more or 1ess as well as my wife could.Actually, the experience helped me unlock one of the world’s great secrets:Women are good at looking after children because they do it.It’s not because of any innate female aptitude or a mother’s instinct--which I think is mostly learned anyway.It’s because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job.
Women obviously get a biological head start from giving birth and nursing.but over the long term experience is more important.When I got the experience myself, I was good.too.As good? I don’t know.Who cares? Children are not made of glass.other people ale capable of looking after them besides Mom.
练习:
1、 Which of the following does the first paragraph imply?
A)Men are no longer given the opportunity to stay at home.
B)In more and more families the wife is earning more than the husband.

A)he though the was the better parent.
B)it was easier for his wife to find a job.
C)their son Ry liked him better.
D)he was earning less than his wife.
3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a thing that a good parent should do with his or her child?

C)Anyone Can take good care of children as far as he has the experience.
D)Children prefer to be taken care of by their mother than by anyone else.

Goal of American Education
Education is all enormous and expensive part of American life. Its size is matched by its variety.
Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of other countries lie in the fact that education here has long been intended for everyone—not just for a privileged elite. Schools ale expected to meet the needs of every child, regardless of ability,and also the needs of society itself.This means that public schools offer more
than academic subjects.It surprises many people when t11ey come here to find high schools offering such courses as typing,sewing,radio repair, computer programming or driver training,along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics,history, and languages.Students choose their curricula depending on their interests,future goals,and level of ability.The underlying goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities,and to give each one a sense of civic and community consciousness。
Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and“Americanizing”the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many different backgrounds and origins. Schools still play a large role in the community, especially in the small towns.
The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many, not only because it is informal,but also because there is not much emphasis on learning facts.Instead,Americans try to teach their children toⅡ1ink for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and creative abilities.Students spend much time,learning how to use resource materials libraries, statistics and computers.Americans believe that if children are taught to reason well and to research well, they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the rest of their lives.Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than theaccumulation of facts.
This is America’s answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking themselves in the fast-moving time:“How Can one prepare today’s child for a tomorrow that one can neither predict nor understand?”
词汇:
privileged adj.享有特权的
elite n.精英,精华
curricula n.课程
underlying adj.潜在的
reason v.推理

The cold places
1. A。文章第2段的段首句中提到了Antarctica,接着的一句说“南极洲保持着世界的低温记录。”,所以该问题句的说法正确。
2. B。线索词及关键词average(平均)。第2段的最后1句中包含average一词,该句说“南极洲冬天的平均温度是零下73度。”,所以该问题句的说法错误。
3. B。该问题说“因为南极和北极的严寒,这些地区是无人区。”凭直觉判断这种说法太绝对,应该是错误的。注意:说的绝对的句子一定不正确。在原文中的第3段的段首句说“仅一个原因就使得南极洲和部分的北极地区几乎不可能让人居住。”,依据此也可判断该问题句不正确。
4. B。原文第4段的段首句中出现了survive(生存)一词,该句及其紧接的一句说“为了生存,人们必须修建防风屏障。”,凭借此判断该问题句的说法也不正确。
5. A. 原文中的第6段中对极地动植物进行了论述,且其表述的含义与问题句一致。
6. C。文章的倒数第2段的第2句中提到了expedition scientists,并说南极洲那里的气候曾经一度象我们现在生活的地区的气候那样温和,但并没说道北极也是如此。
7. A。文章的最后1段的段首句说“探险者在南极发现了煤。”, 而紧接的一句讲述的正是该问题句所讲述的内容。

下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题,每道题后面有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并根据短文回答其后面的问题,从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。
第1篇Losing Weight
1.D 文章第二段中的第一句和第四段中的第一句先后提到,接受调查之女孩中的绝大多数体重都在健康范围内。
2.C 文章的第二段提到,有将近三分之一的女孩认为自己超重。
3.C 文章的第二段提到,接受调查的是年龄为10岁至14岁的女孩。
4.B 文章的第三段提到,主要研究人员McVey女士在一家医院工作。
5.A 文章的第六段提到,有关体重、身体形象和食品等的不健康态度使得一些女孩子面临饮食失调的危险。 、
第2篇
1.B.分析:结合刚才了解到的文章的主题判断A(段落最后都没有提到谁应该留在家里)和C(原文提到“我和主持人交谈”,因此判断作者不是电视台的人)都与文章内容不一致,段落中间(第2句)提到了“money”因此推测B是答案。答案相关句:I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay-at-home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife. (越来越多的爸爸留在家里可能是因为男人不一定比女人赚钱多)
2. B。分析:利用题干中的their son和eight years ago作为答案线索,这样发现答案相关句:(第3段)I was a stay-at-home father for eight years, so his declaration made me bristle. (It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if I was a better “parent” than my wife. (第4段)….I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better”parent: She had spent more time with Ry, could read him better and calm him down quickly.) …But as she was more employable one, my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.
该划线句直接揭示答案B(他的妻子找工作更容易)
3. B/C。分析:借助被选项中的核心词/结构(spending more time, school, reading stories, calm him down)作为答案线索,这样发现这些结构大部分都集中在以下的句子中:I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better”parent: She had spent more time with Ry, could read him better and calm him down quickly.对比被选项判断B/C没有出现,所以B/C是答案。
4. C。 分析:借助常识猜测答案可能是C。也可以借助原文:注意文章中提到“妇女擅长../good at”的结构,这样发现答案相关句:(第5段)Women are good at looking after their children because they do it. It is not because of any innate female aptitude or a mother’s instinct – which I think is mostly learned anyway. It’s because they put in the time and attention required to be good at the job.划线句内容直接揭示了C(妇女花了更多的时间和孩子在一起)是答案。
5. C.分析:在文章的结尾处发现句子: Women obviously get a biological head start from giving birth and nursing, but over the long term experience is more important. (该划线句的内容与C一致:长期照顾孩子的经验更为重要) I was good, too. As good? I don’t know, who cares? Children are not made of glasses. Other people are capable of looking after them besides Mom.

第五部分:补全短文(每题2分,共10分)
阅读下面的短文,文章中有5处空白,文章后有6组文字,请根据文章的内容选择5组文字,将其分别放会文章原有位置,以恢复文章原貌。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置。
1.F.分析:思路特点:注意空格前后词语的使用特点。注意到空格前后句中都出现了parents,因此判断空格处也谈及parents的可能性很大,因此首先注意F。而且空格前句中的your size (and weight)呼应F中的tall, 而空格后句中的smaller也是在说身高的问题,因此判断F是答案。
2. A. 分析:思路特点:注意空格前后词语的使用特点并利用段首句中的用词。空格前面句子中出现了“大骨头”,“小骨头”的字样,而段首句中的词“, body type/体形”揭示“大骨头”,“小骨头”应该是“骨头架大”,“骨头架小”,而空格前句说“大骨头架比小骨头架重”,对比被选项判断A合适:A在句意上“两个身高相同,体重不同的孩子”也是在讲述身高和体重的关系,因此判断A是答案。
3. C.分析:思路特点:注意空格前后词语的使用特点。空格前后句中都谈到了“超重”,因此判断空格处继续谈到“超重”的可能性较大,B,C和D都涉及到了“超重”,注意到空格后句中出现了“eat right and exercise”,而该结构正好与C中的“Poor eating and exercise habits”形成对比,因此判断C是答案。
4.B.分析:思路特点:注意空格前后词语的使用特点。空格前后句中都出现了“calories/热量”,因此判断空格处出现该词的可能性较大,因此首先重点注意B,空格后面的句子结构是“if you…, your body ..”,该结构也正好与B呼应,形成排比结构,因此判断B是答案。
5. E. 分析:思路特点:注意到空格前句子中的用词特点—出现了eat more and exercise less,而该结构正好与E中的eat less and exercise more形成对比,而且空格前句中的become overweight也正好与E中的lose weight形成对比,因此判断E是答案。
第6部分:完型填空 (每题1分,共15分)
阅读下面的短文,文中有15处空白,每处空白给出了4个选项,请根据短文的内容从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案,并涂在答题卡相应的位置上。
A Health Profile
1.D 从句子的意思看,这里应该有“需要”的意思,所以选择应该在C和D之间,need可以作情态动词用,也可以作普通动词用,前面既用了will,那说明这里应该跟作普通动词用的need,所以答案是need to know。
2. D 这里what引导的从旬的意思是“在工作时你可能面临什么不利健康的因素”,“在工作时”的英语是at work,是一个固定的表达方式。
3. A 这句用how引导的从句的意思是“你每日的饮食和推荐的标准相比之下如何’,最合适的说法是daily diet。
4. C exercising这个-ing形式提示这里必须用spend这个动词,通常我们说spend…doing…,如果要用devote,那应该有to,devote的用法是devote…to…。要表示用多少时间,英语里不用use这个动词,如果用take,那么主语一般不会是人。
5. B engage in是一个动词短语,意思是“从事……活动” 。
6. B 这里是you will need to know后面一系列宾语从句中的最后一个,这个空格里要求填入的是引导该宾语从句的连接词,表示的是“是否……”这个意思,只有whetheror not…合适。
7. A 这个置于旬首的短语要表示的是目的,即“为了要……”你应该进行一次体检,以确定你的血液、心脏、肺功能是否正常。表示目的要用不定式,A和D的区别是A是主动态,D是被动态,这里要用主动态。
8. A serve as是个短语,意思是“作为……,起……的作用”。
9. B 这里需要的是一个连接两个从句的连接词,四个选项都具有这个功能,但意义各不相同,once的意思是“一旦”,符合本句的意思。
10.D to be based on是个固定的表达方式,意思是“在……的基础上,以……为基础”。
11.C work在作•‘工作”解时是不可数的,前面有不定冠词a,所以被排除了。余下的三个选项的意思各不相同,have ajob是“有工作”的意思,符合这里的需要。
12.D to be followed by是“后面跟着”的意思,其他几个介词都不对。
13.A 在四个选项中,和“思想”有关的是前三个,但give some thought to是一个习惯的表达方式,意思是“考虑……,对……想一想”。
14.B to be in good/poor health是短语,意为“身体好/身体不好”,其他介词都不能用。
15.C benefit是及物动词,意为“使……得益”,reap是“收获”的意思,harvest一般作名词用,lead则完全不相干。
