阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A 、B 、C D )中,选出最佳选项,并在题卡上将该项涂黑。

The pillage (掠夺) and destruction of ancient shipwrecks and sunken archaeological sites by treasure hunters seeking gold and other valuables may be illegal under the terms of an international treaty under discussion by UNESCOs 188 Member States.

"Protecting our underwater heritage is extremely important and increasingly urgent as no site or shipwreck is now out of bounds for treasure hunters. New technologies have made deep-water wrecks easily accessible and these technologies are getting cheaper," warns Lyndel Prott.

According to estimates by commercial salvors (寻宝者), there are some three million undiscovered shipwrecks scattered across the worlds oceans. Even the figures for the known wrecks are impressive. The Northern Shipwrecks Database for example contains 65,000 ship loss records for North America alone from 1500 AD to the present. The Dictionary of Disasters at Sea by Charles Hocking (1969) lists 12,542 sailing ships and war vessels lost between 1824 and 1962.

Then there are sunken cities such as the trading town and pirate stronghold(海盗堡垒) of Port Royal in Jamaica, which disappeared beneath the waves after an earthquake in 1692. Or the remnants of ancient civilisations, such as the Lighthouse of Alexandria in Egypt, and the Neolithic villages being discovered under the Black Sea, which some believe could help explain Noah’s great flood.

These treasures of cultural heritage are under serious threat. Technology now allows extraordinary access to the ocean depths for deermined and well-financed treasure hunters. And the potential rewards are huge. In 1985, American salvor Mel Fisher discovered the wreck of the Seora de Atocha, a Spanish ship that sank off the Florida Keys in 1622 with her cargo of gold, silver and jewellery worth an estimated US $400 million.

An archaeologist can spend ten years or more studying a ship, conserving its objects and publishing its findings. We gain an enormous amount of information and knowledge from this work. With treasure hunters, all of this is lost. This is tragic, for humanity as a whole.

材料三:

在制播运营模式方面,央视纪录频道实行的是频道化运营模式。央视是纪录片的主要制作基地。制作出的精品节目数量众多。当然,频道化运营模式也有其自身的劣势,劣势在于频道可以调动的资源非常有限,其融资渠道、产品设计、人财物资源调度都会受到种种限制。央视纪录频道目前正积极推进制播分离模式,节目制作以社会招标、联合制作、购买作为主要方式,并辅以自制精品,为建立较为健全的制作管理模式做好准备。

(摘编自张同道等《2011年国家纪录片频道发展报告(下)》)

材料四:

总部位于美国首都华盛顿的国家地理频道是一个全球性的付费有线电视网。目前,国家地理频道已经以34种语言转播至全球166个国家和地区逾2亿9千万用户,作为一个纯纪录片频道能够取得如此卓越的成就,除了高质量、高观赏性的节目内容之外,与其频道自身的制播运用模式是分不开的。其制播运营模式如下:有线电视系统是在地方政府的批准下由有线电视系统运营商投资建立的,有线电视系统直接面向订户收取费用,有线电视系统运营商是指拥有并运营有线电视系统的企业实体。有线电视节目提供商为有线电视系统运营商提供节目,具体到国家地理频道而言,美国国家地理电视公司以及其他渠道承担提供片源的任务,国家地理频道承担的是节目制作等任务,即让来自国家地理电视公司等渠道的单个的片源变成有机结合的整体,适于在电视上播放;康卡斯特电信公司作为有线电视系统运营商,则承担把电视信号传送到千家万户的电视机上的技术性播出任务。 (摘编自楚慧萍《多元延伸,有机互动——美国国家地理频道运营模式初探》)

In order to increase their job chances after college, Chinese students are turning to a special practiceEiffel Tower nose jobs (鼻整形手术). The latest trend in plastic surgery promises to create a nose that is similar to the curve of the Eiffel Tower.

Surgeon Wang Xuming said: We are influenced by the beauty of the Eiffel Tower. We are not content to just add something to the nose; we reconstruct it. The surgery costs about US$ 10,000 and involves the enlarging of the nose using tissue from the forehead.

A big bowl of milk can be a great way to start the day. Many snack bars contain nutrients that help our bodies stay strong and healthy. But some of these foods are packed with too many vitamins and minerals. According to a new study by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), this extra fortification may be more harmful than helpful.

Of the tested snack bars, 27 have more than 50% of the recommended amounts of vitamin A, niacin and zinc. Nutrition facts listed on packages are based on recommended daily values for adults, who are physically larger and require more vitamins and minerals. So when kids eat these cereals (麦片) and snack bars, they are getting more nutrients than they need.

Vitamin A, niacin (烟酸) and zinc (锌) are best in fresh and unprocessed foods that are in their natural state. Vitamin A helps you see at night. It occurs naturally in eggs, meat and carrots. Niacin is a vitamin that helps our bodies make energy. It is found in foods like fish, seeds, and peanuts, as well as in whole grains like wheat and brown rice. Zinc helps our bodies fight off infection. It is found in many foods, including wheat-based products, meats, beans and nuts.

Children typically eat more than one serving of cereal or snack bars a day, in addition to taking vitamin supplements. Eating large amounts of these nutrients can be dangerous to kids’ health. Too much vitamin A can cause liver damage, and high levels of zinc can destroy the body’s natural immunity, or power to fight infection.

The EWG authors are calling for the FDA to make changes to its guidelines for nutrient intake and revise its daily values to match kids’ diets.

【1】 What can we infer from the second paragraph ?.

A. most kids are lack of nutrition.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A 、B 、C D )中,选出最佳选项。

My friend Jennie Crossen gave her bone marrow (骨髓) to a 51-year-old woman with leukemia, a woman she has never met.

At the end of March, the Red Cross called back. Six different blood elements were tested; Jennie matched five completely and was about a 3/4 match of the sixth. So she was the best match.

In April, Jennie went for a complete physical exam by one of the doctors who would perform the surgery. The doctor had to make sure that it would be no threat to her. The doctor told her that the surgery would entail having two quarts of bone marrow extracted from her hip bones. Jennie would probably be released the same day the surgery took place and should expect to be sore for a couple of months.

"I didn't think it was that big a deal until I realized I was a match," Jennie said, "There wasn't a question in my head. It didn't seem like something that was going above and beyond."

Jennie was left with two very small scars on her lower back from the surgery and was given medication to help dull the pain. She still felt a great deal of pressure on her lower back. "Being only 21, I feel like I am not old enough to significantly impact someone's life," Jennie said, "It seems strange to me that I could possibly save this woman's life which was being cut short by cancer."

Three weeks after the surgery, Jennie received a call from the Red Cross representative who told her the transplant was successful. "I feel good, and I think it will actually work for her," she said, "So many people say they'd only donate if it was for a family member or close friend. This woman is someone's family and someone's friend. Obviously, no one she knows is a match, and the fact that you'd be able to help a perfect stranger is great."

【1】 Jennie Crossen gave her bone marrow to .

A. a close friend B. a stranger

C. a classmate D. a relative

【2】Before Jennie Crossen knew she was the best match, her feeling could described as ”.

A. frightened B. nervous C. calm D. excited

【3】The underlined word "impact" in Paragraph 5 probably means .

A. take pleasure in the beauty

B. devote all one's life to something

C. end the dangerous practice of something

D. have an important effect on something

【1】What would be the best title of this passage?

A. A Great Woman B. To Save a Stranger

Tips for Cooking on a Tight紧凑的 Schedule

From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time. 【1】 Money is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some advice on how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.

Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there’s nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials already? 2

Make your time worth it. Make the most of your time and save it later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 3 It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.

4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experiment. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.

Hopefully that gives a good start. 5 And don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

A.Try new things.

B.Ability is easily improved.

C. Make three or four instead.

D.Understand your food better.

E.Cooking is a burden for many people.

F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.

G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.
