题目内容

1.After hours sitting inside Deep Worker,it feels good to get back.While you're stretching on the deck,others on the ship are at work studying the data you have collected.
The rock samples you collected are taken to a laboratory on board the ship.Tests performed on ocean rocks can show the age of the seafloor.Many people will study the videotapes of the swordfish.There is nothing like a video to show others exactly what you saw and experienced in the deep.Videos capture details of how animals move and behave-details that a person sitting inside Deep Worker could easily miss.Those details can help scientists better understand the role each kind of animal plays in its deep-sea community.
While you were below,Deep Worker's exact location was being tracked.Thus,detailed maps of the seafloor,showing underwater canyons and mountains far beneath the surface can be made with the help of this information.Dive by dive,Sylvia Earle and her fellow scientists are piecing together remarkable pictures of the deep sea-a world that until recently was as unknown as a distant planet.
Since Sylvia first began exploring the waters around Florida,she's seen changes-trash on the seafloor,fewer fish,polluted water.These ocean problems in Florida and in many other parts of the world make people like Sylvia anxious.They want to know how to protect the ocean,and how to restore it to good health where damage has been done.
Sylvia and other scientists are learning more about the ocean,especially the deep sea,than ever before.The more we know about a place,the better we understand it.As Sylvia says,"With knowing comes caring.If people care about something,they will work to protect it."
66.What does the bold-typed phrase"this information"in Paragraph 3 refer to?D
A.The location of underwater canyons and mountains.
B.Remarkable pictures of the deep sea.
C.These ocean problems.
D.The track of Deep Worker.
67.Sylvia Earle is probably a scientist whoB.
A.specializes in making maps
B.cares about the ocean
C.works on an unknown ship
D.performs experiments in a laboratory
68.According to Paragraph 4,which statement about Sylvia is TRUE?SylviaBA.has seen fewer fish and polluted water 
B.is concerned about the ocean problems
C.has explored the waters and protected the ocean
D.has restored good health after her injury
69.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?D
A.Working below in Deep Worker
B.Ocean Exploration and Ocean Maps
C.Deep Worker Saving the World 
D.Ocean familiarity and Ocean Preservation.

4.The Descendants of the Sun(太阳的后裔) that really (61)earns(earn) the praise(reputation)of K-drama fans.It made its debut(首映) on February 24,2016with an average of 13percent in the Seoul National Capital Area.The next night,ratings(62)went(go)up an average of two percent.(63)Apparently(apparent),those two episodes set up Descendants of the Sun as it dominated the competition with its third episode.(64)withnationwide and Seoul National Capital Area for both TNmS Ratings and AGB Nielson,the K-drama earned over 20 percent viewership ratings(收视率).
For those (65)whodo not know what Descendants of the Sun is about,it is a drama about the love of people who get (66)closeras they learn to be considerate of each other in desperate times.It is also about the sacrifices made by people who throw themselves (67)intonatural disasters.Captain Yoo Shi Jin(柳大尉) (Song Joong Ki宋仲基) is the team leader of the Special Warfare Command of the United Nations Peacekeeping Troops.By request of the UN,he is (68)stationed(station) in the war-torn country of Uruk(乌鲁克).(69)Therehe meets Kang Mo Yeon(姜暮烟) (Song Hye Kyo宋慧乔),a volunteer doctor with Doctors Without Borders.(70)when/asthey work alongside each other,they clash and fall in love.
12.Besides containing attractive flowers,trees and other plants that beautify the community,ecofriendly rain gardens are healthy for the environment and the people living and working nearby.
A rain garden is not very different from a traditional garden.It is just a far more ecofriendly garden.Usually it is built lower than the ground.Rain gardens make smart use of rain and storm water by temporarily holding water from rain and storms and letting it soak(浸入)slowly into the ground before it runs into streams or enters the public drinking water supply.
Thus,a rain garden keeps the water,allowing it to be used as needed by plants in the rain garden,rather than flowing immediately into nearby streams and going unused.The water will soak slowly into the ground within a day or two.This creates an advantage that the rain garden does not allow mosquitoes to breed.This is a simple,attractive,and ecofriendly"green"way to treat storm water.
What's more,planting a rain garden helps reduce pollution and improve the environment.Without using expensive machinery and chemicals,rain gardens remove harmful chemicals in the rainwater and cut down on the amount of pollution reaching streams and rivers by up to 30%.
Native plants are recommended for rain gardens because they are more used to the local climate,soil,and water conditions.They may attract local wildlife such as native birds.Water your rain garden immediately after planting and once a week,unless you have had at least an inch of rain during the week.Once native plants establish the necessary root system,they will require little care.
Often,local governments and private businesses develop large rain gardens in their yards and in public parks as a way to improve the environment and solve flooding problems.However,you don't need to be a professionally environmental engineer to create a rain garden.As long as you're ecoconscious homeowners,you can help the environment by building smaller rain gardens in your yards.

4.Which of the following is NOT true for the function of rain gardens?B
A.They are good for living conditions.
B.They increase pollution.
C.They can beautify the community.
D.They improve the environment.
5.Which of the following is the ecofriendly function of rain gardens discussed in Paragraph 4?A
A.They can help reduce the pollution problem.
B.They can keep the rain and storm water.
C.They can be healthy for the people around.
D.They can make the environment more beautiful.
6.One of the main reasons why native plants are recommended is thatD.
A.they cost less and are much easier to get
B.they may attract local wildlife to come
C.they require little care from the local gardener
D.they are more used to the local growing conditions
7.What do we know about rain gardens?C
A.They need little water after all the plants are planted.
B.They may attract local birds and change the local climate.
C.They usually need at least an inch of rainwater a week.
D.They may reduce the water pollution problem by 70%.
9.For pet owners,the hundreds of pet food recalls taking place each year has raised a lot of alarm."Most people are caring pet owners,and they want to do what helps protect their pet,"explains Will Post,founder and CEO,Hound & Gatos Pet Foods Corporation."Yet the problem is that most are not sure what that means and how to go about it.The more they learn about pet food,the better able they will be to make an informed decision that will keep their pet healthier and safer."
Here are several tips that consumers may want to keep in mind when it comes to choosing a pet food that will help reduce the risks.
Get to know the company.Most people may know a company name simply because they spend millions on advertising.But that doesn't mean they know much about the company or their morals.Research companies to find one that offers high standards,quality products,and great customer service.
Ask questions.Don't be afraid to get in touch with a pet food company and ask them where something was made,where ingredients(原料) came from,or any other questions.They should have no problem answering questions about their products,or with being able to provide proof of their quality standards.
Read reviews.Do some searches to read some reviews about various brands of pet food.Keep in mind that some reviews can be one-sided and even planted by the company itself,so look for fair third-party sources giving the review.
Investigate(调查) ingredients.The source of ingredients is of major concern when it comes to reducing the risks of pet food recalls and keeping pets healthy.Read the labels and ask questions to determine where the ingredients are coming from.
Understand pet foods.Cat and dog food should contain 100percent protein,which will supply them with the nutrients their bodies require.The problem with many commercial pet foods is that it is full of numerous fillers,such as cheap fillers and grains.

36.How can people provide a safer and healthier environment for their pet?B
A.By giving more food to their pet.
B.By getting a better understanding about pet food.
C.By accompanying their pet more.
D.By knowing more about their pet.
37.How many pieces of advice on choosing a pet food are given by the author?C
A.Three.  B.Four.  C.Five.  D.Six.
38.As for reducing the risks of pet food recalls,what should be mainly taken into consideration?A
A.Where the ingredients come from.
B.Whether the company has good reputation.
C.Whether the food supply enough nutrients.
D.Whether most people choose the food.
39.The passage is mainly aboutB.
A.the increasingly serious problem about food safety
B.the ways to choose a safer pet food
C.the opinion about food safety
D.the advice on caring pets
40.Who are the intended readers of the passage?D
A.People in general.
B.Food companies.
C.Pet shop owners.
D.Pet owners.

6.Nowadays,the food we eat seems to have great effects on our health.Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat,it has,at the same time,made many foods unfit to eat.Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well,especially cancer of the colon.Different cultures are more likely to cause certain different illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures.
That food is reated to illness is not a new discovery.In 1945,government researchers realized that nitrates,commonly used to preserve color in meats,and other food additives,caused cancer.Yet,these carcinogenic additives remain in our food,and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.The additives which we eat are not all so direct.Farmers often give penicillin to beef and living animals,and because of this,penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cow.Sometimes similar drugs are given to animals not for medical purposes,but for financial reasons.The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market.Although the Food and Drug Administration(FDA)has tried repeatedly to control these procedures,the practices continue.
46.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
A.Some additives are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals.
B.Researchers have known about the potential dangers of food additives for about sixty-eight years.
C.Drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons.
D.Food may cause forty percent of cancer in the world.
47.How has science done harm to mankind?D
A.Because of science,diseases caused by polluted food have been virtually eliminated.
B.It has caused a lack of information concerning the value of food.
C.The scientists have preserved the color of meats,but not of vegetables.
D.Because of the application of science,some potentially harmful substances have been added to food.
48.What are nitrates used for?A
A.They preserve the color of meats.
B.They preserve flavor in packaged foods.
C.They are the objects of research.
D.They cause the animals to become fatter.
49.The word"carcinogenic"most nearly means"C".
A.trouble-making           B.color-retaining
C.cancer-causing           D.money-making
50.Which might be the best title of the passage?B
A.Drug and Food            B.Food and Health
C.Cancer and Health        D.Health and Drug.
13.It was a cold night in Washington,D.C.,and I was heading back to the hotel when a man approached me.He asked if I would give him some money so he could get something to eat.I'd read the signs:"Don't give money to beggars as most of them are swindlers."So I shook my head and kept walking.
I wasn't prepared for a reply,but with no hesitation,he followed me and said,"I really am homeless and I really am hungry!You can come with me and watch me eat!"But I kept on walking.
The incident kept bothering me for the rest of the week.I had money in my pocket and it wouldn't have killed me to hand over a dollar or two even if he hadn't been a real beggar.On a freezing cold night,no less,I assumed the worst of a fellow human being.
Flying back to Anchorage,I couldn't help thinking of him.I tried to reason my failure to help by supposing government agencies,churches and charities were there to feed him.Besides,you're not supposed to give money to beggars.
Somewhere over Seattle,I started to write my weekly garden column for The Anchorage Daily News.Out of the blue,I came up with an idea.Bean's Cafe,a local charity service kitchen,feeds hundreds of hungry local people every day.Why not try to get all my readers to plant one row of vegetables or flowers in their gardens for Bean's?Plant a row for Bean's.It's clean and simple.
We didn't keep records back then,but the idea began to take off.Folks would fax me or call when they took something in.It's food for the spirit and comfort for my conscience.
In April 1995,the Garden Writers Association of America(GWAA) held their annual meeting in Anchorage and after learning our program,Plant a Row for Bean's became Plant a Row For The Hungry.The idea then was to have every member write or talk about planting a row for the hungry,which brought the program to national attention.
As more and more people participated,new variations cropped up.Many companies gave free seeds to customers and displayed the logo for the program.Donations poured in.It was then that I could really stop feeling guilty.

66.The underlined word"swindlers"in the first paragraph is closest in meaning toC.
A.policemen
B.writers
C.cheaters
D.beggars
67.Why did the author think he assumed the worst of a fellow human being?B
A.Because he didn't show fair respect to a beggar treating him badly.
B.Because he could have helped a hungry man but he passed by.
C.Because he believed that no people begged because of real hunger.
D.Because he thought that charity work was the government's duty.
68.How did the author make up for what he had done?D
A.He set up a local kitchen to help the poor.
B.He planted a row of vegetables for charity.
C.He called on people to donate money to the Bean's.
D.He initiated the idea of Plant a row for Bean's.
69.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?C
A.The beggar gave up the first time he was turned down by the author.
B.The author invented the program inspired by the Anchorage Daily News.
C.GWAA expanded the program concept and made it nationwide in 1995.
D.The program was later taken over by some seeding companies.
