20.To the west and off the European Continent,there are several thousands of islands on the continental shelf(大陆架).They are generally called the British Isles.Of all these Isles,the largest one is called Great Britain.For the convenience's sake,it is often shortened to Britain.Still to the west of Great Britain is the second largest island known as Ireland.The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (U.K.) is made up of Great Britain,Northern Ireland,and a number of smaller islands around them.The total area of the country is some 240,000square kilometers with a population of about 57million.
Great Britain runs nearly 1,000kilometers from south to north and extends,at the widest part,about 500kilometers from west to east.Its area is some 230,000square kilometers.Great Britain is traditionally divided into three parts,or countries:England in the south,Scotland in the north,and Wales in the southwest.There are discernible(可辨别的) differences between them even now.
England is the largest and most developed of all the three.Its area,about 130,000square kilometers,takes up nearly 60% of the whole island.Its population is more than 46million which makes up 85% of the country's whole population.The importance of England is so great in Britain that some foreigners just say"England"when they mean Britain.The same is true of the custom of speaking of the British people as the English who are the majority in the United Kingdom.
Scotland is the second largest both in area and population.It has an area of about 78,760square kilometers,less than 30% of the whole island,with a population of 5million,less than one-tenth of the whole population.
Wales is the smallest of the three both in area and population.In area,20,700square kilometers,makes up less than 9% while its population,2.7million,does not exceed(超过) 5% of the whole.

B.46  
C.60  
D.57
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A
A.England is six times larger than Wales in area.
B.England is six times larger than Scotland in area.

D.Great Britain is six times larger than Wales in area.
1.The African elephant,the largest land animal remaining on earth,is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统).Unlike other animals,the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment.As a big plant-eater,it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives,therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地).
It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat.In its continuous search for the 300pounds of plants it must have every day,it kills small trees and underbushes,and pulls branches off big trees.This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas.In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.
Take the rain forests for example.In their natural state,the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor.By pulling down trees and eating plants,elephants make open spaces,allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor.In such situations,the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.
What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species.If the elephant disappears,scientists say,many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna,greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.

2.Luciano Baietti,a retired school,headmaster from Italy,holds the Guinness record for the most university degrees.The 70-year-old currently has 15 bachelors or masters degrees from various universities across Italy,and is getting ready to get his 16th.
Getting more than one college degree is not exactly unheard of,but 15 is apparently quite impressive,since it's only been done by one man.Although he spends his days working around his house and garden,like most people his age,at night,Baretti turns into n student again.Every morning,at 3 a.m.,when most of the world is sleeping,he wakes up and studies by the light of his desk lamp.He claims studying helps keep his mind active and that every degree he has obtained has helped broaden his knowledge of the world around him.
"Thanks to books,I feel free.After all,the words share the share root,"he says,referring to the Italian words libro (book) and libero (free)."Me claims to have been inspired by the 19th century French essayist Louis-Francois Berlin,whose portrait is also on display in his study,alongside his many framed university degrees,and whom he describes as"a man of culture and knowledge.
Baietti first made it into the Guinness Book of Records in 2002,after his eighth degree.Then he spent the next 15 years adding seven more bachelors and masters degrees to his collection.
"Each time I set myself a new challenge to see how far my body and my brain can go."At 70-years-old,Baietti thinks he has enough energy for at least one more degree,this time in food science.
Probably the most important thing about Baietti's achievement is that he managed to get most of his university degrees while working as headmaster of a secondary school,and volunteering with Italy's Red Cross.The secret was always getting up at 3 in the morning to make sure that his thirst (渴求) for knowledge didn't affect his professional activity and his family life.He spent 3 hours studying every day,and that was apparently all he needed to pass his exams and write his thesis (论文).
 
32.Which of the following is true according to the passage?D
A.Louis-Francois Berlin is on good terms with Baietti.
B.Baietti is the first Italian to break a Guinness record twice.
C.Nobody but Baietti has ever got more than one college degree.
D.Challenging himself opens up a broader world to Baietti.
33.Baietti can be best described asC.
A.honest and considerate
B.optimistic and generous
C.determined and hardworking
D.reliable and imaginative
34.The key to Baietti's success isC.
A.the support from his family
B.his eagerness for fame
C.his nonstop daily learning
D.his unusual brain and energy
35.What lesson can we learn from the story of Baietti?B
A.Well begun is half done.
B.Never too late to learn.
C.Take things as they come.
D.Strike the iron while it is hot.
19.On the occasional clear-frost autumn right,I was hiking through the dark forest with my GMO wolf.Yes,my best friend is a genetically modified organism(转基因生物);deliberate selection has produced the blunt-toothed,small-pawed wonder that walks by my side.
Our world is changing rapidly.In the last five decades,global population has fully doubled,with 3.7billion hungry mouths added to our planet.During this same time span,the amount of land suitable for agriculture has increased by only 5%.Miraculously,this did not result in the great global famine(饥荒)one might have predicted..
How do scientists modify a plant so that it makes more food than its parents did?We could treat each harvest like a litter of wolf pups and select only plants bearing the fattest;richest seeds for the next season.This was the method our ancestors used to engineer rice,corn and wheat from the wild grasses they encountered.
During my childhood,advances in genetic technologies allowed scientists to identify and clone the genes responsible for repressing stem growth,leading to shorter,stronger stalks that could bear more seed-the high-yield crops that feed us today.The 21st century has brought with it a marvelous new set of high-tech tools with which to further quicken the process of artificial selection.Plant geneticists can now directly edit out or edit in sections of DNA using molecular scissors.We can minimize a plant's weaknesses while adding to its strengths,and we don't have to wait for seasons to pass to test the result.
It is the transformative potential of these techniques to quickly supply the next-generation crops required for upcoming climate change that has led me to believe in the safety and function of GMO plants in agricultural products.We need more GMO research to feed the world that we are creating.
I love the quiet forest that stands between my lab and my home.But I know that as a scientist,I am responsible first to humanity.We must feed,shelter and nurture one another as our first priority,and to do so,we must take advantage of our best technologies,which have always included some type of genetic modification.We must continue as before,nourishing the future as we feed ourselves,and each year plant only the very best of what we have collectively engineered.I keep the faith of my ancestors each night when I walk through the forest to my lab,and my GMO wolf does the same when she guards my way home.

63.Why does the author mention the wolf in the 1st paragraph?D
A.To advise people to keep wolves as pets
B.To persuade readers to welcome the new technology
C.To change people's attitude towards wolves
D.To introduce a technology used to humans'advantage
64.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?B
A.GMO technology will help weatherproof future crops.
B.With GMO technology,famine has been eliminated.
C.Artificial selections make high-yield plants possible.
D.The author believes technology should contribute to future generations.
65.What can be learned about modifying a plant?C
A.It takes scientists seasons to know whether their selection is correct.
B.One way for ancestors to change a plant was to clone some genes.
C.Modern techniques help speed up the artificial selection by altering DNA.
D.The general public show strong faith in GMO plants.
66.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?B
A.GMO Technology-Turning Wolves into the Best Pets
B.Engineered Food-Feeding Future Generations
C.Engineered Food-To Be or Not To Be
D.GMO Technology-A Driving Force in World Peace.
