试题分析：本文从经济、领域、政治等各方面全面地向我们介绍了加拿大这个国家。

【1】in；句意：加拿大是美国北部的一个国家，由十个省和三个领土组成。in（表示位置）在…里面，（表示领域，范围）在…以内，故填in。

【2】Located；句意：位于大陆的北部。这里括号中的词是locate，因为这里是加拿大和大陆之间是被动关系，表示“坐落于”，所以应该用过去分词，故填Located。

【3】to；句意：它从大西洋延伸到太平洋，向北延伸到北冰洋。To表示“向，朝着”，符合题意，故填to。

【4】Its；句意：它与美国的共同边界形成了世界上最长的陆地边界。Its表示“它的”，这里表示“加拿大的”，故填Its。

【5】wealthiest；句意：加拿大是发达国家，也是这个世界上最富有的国家之一。根据句意这里应该是用wealthy的最高级形式，故填wealthiest。

【6】globally；句意：加拿大是发达国家，也是这个世界上最富有的国家之一，全球名义人均收入第十。这里应该用副词作状语，故填globally。

【7】the；句意：加拿大在政府透明度的国际评断中排名最高。这里最高的是最高级，前面要加the，故填the。

【8】a；句意：加拿大是英联邦的一员。这里要求填“一员”所以需要冠词a来修饰，故填a。

【9】and；考查状语从句。句意：而且是几个主要的国际和政府间机构或集团的一部分。这里前后两个句子是并列关系，故填and。

【10】including；句意：包括北约、八国集团、十国集团、20国集团、北美自由贸易协定和亚太经济合作论坛。这里include要做主语，所以应该用动名词形式，故填including。

【题目】O. Henry was a pen name used by an American writer of short stories. His real name was William Sydney Porter. He was born on September 11, 1862, in Greensboro, North Carolina.

As a young boy he lived an exciting life. He did not go to school for very long, but he managed to teach himself everything he needed to know. When he was about 20 years old, O. Henry went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank, when some money went missing from the bank, O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories.

After he got out of prison, he went to New York in 1902 when Porter's most prolific(多产的)writing period started. While there, he wrote 381 short stories. He wrote a story a week for over a year for the New York World Sunday Magazine. He wrote mostly about New York and the life of the poor there. People liked his stories, because simple as the tales were, they would finish with a sudden change at the end, to the reader’s surprise.

Porter traveled with Richard to Austin in 1884, where he met Athol Estes, then seventeen years old and from a wealthy family. On July 1, 1887, Porter married Athol. Athol Estes Porter died on July 25, 1897, from tuberculosis. Porter married again in 1907, to childhood sweetheart Sarah (Sallie) Lindsey Coleman, whom he met again after revisiting his native state of North Carolina.

Porter was a heavy drinker, and his health deteriorated(恶化) markedly in 1908, which affected his writing. In 1909, Sarah left him, and he died on June 5, 1910, of cirrhosis of the liver, complications of diabetes, and an enlarged heart. After funeral services in New York City, he was buried in the Riverside Cemetery in Asheville, North Carolina.

【题目】It is important for countries to develop. Sometimes development can do more harm than good for a country. Therefore, this development needs to be different from past development, which polluted the environment and wasted natural resources. One possible solution to this problem now being discussed is sustainable development. It focuses on preserving the environment and natural resources. It is all about creating better health care, education, housing and improved standard of living for everyone. This is a simple idea, but one that is hard to put into practice. However, it is something that we must do, because without sustainable development our future and the lives of our children and our grandchildren will be in danger.

Nearly everything we do in our modern lives requires the use of the Earth’s natural resources. These natural resources provide the energy for many important things. The list is almost endless. For all these things, we mostly depend on fuels such as coal, gas and oil to produce energy. We are now consuming these fuels at a much higher rate than they are being produced. On top of this, burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide, which is harmful to the environment. This is why many people are pushing for the use of alternative energy sources.

Alternative energy sources can be used without running out. Some examples of the alternatives are solar energy, wind energy and hydroelectricity. As people are becoming more aware of the need to protect the environment, these types of energy are becoming more and more popular.

In many parts of the world, tentative(试验性的) steps are being taken to introduce these forms of alternative energy. For example, some people in Nigeria are training to use solar power, and in Costa Rica, people are now using hydroelectricity to provide power for their small villages. The introduction of programmes like these will hopefully help end the systematic destruction of the environment and see alternative energy promoted around the world. This will mean good things for our future, our children’s future and our grandchildren’s future.

【1】We know from the passage that sustainable development _________.

【2】It is important to preserve the natural resources because they _________.

A. consume the energy for important things

D. are being produced at a high rate

【3】 Hydroelectricity means ___________.

A. using the sun to provide electricity

【4】 What is the author’s attitude toward sustainable development?

A. Critical. B. Positive.

A woman gave up her fetus(胎儿) in Central China’s Hubei province after her 13-year-old daughter threatened to commit suicide.

The event drew people’s attention to the single child mentality, which may be an obstacle as the country tries to relax the single-child policy. The woman, 44, had been pregnant for 13 weeks.

_【2】_, but the girl is not the only child in China showing jealousy of a younger sibling. Zhuang Zhuang(not his real name) was 16 when his younger brother was born last year.

Xia Xueluan, a sociology professor at Peking University, believes the one-child policy, enacted more than three decades ago, created many young “emperors” and “empresses” in China. “Parents spoiled their children, so many kids tend to be self-centered without consideration for others,” he said.

B. A majority of the Chinese provincial regions.

C. Her anxiety reached its peak.

D. I’m under great pressure to do well in academic performances.

【题目】Expensive and new gloves allow chatterboxes (话匣子) to take the term "handsfree" to a new level—by talking into them as they make a call. The gloves are known as "Talk to the Hand" and cost 1,000 a pair. They fixed a speaker unit into the thumb and a microphone into the little finger that can be connected to any mobile handset using Bluetooth.

Artist Sean Miles designed the new gloves that double as a phone in part of his project that shows the possibilities of gadget (小玩意) recycling. He uses outdated gloves and combines them with parts from mobile handsets recycled through O2, which took up the project. Mobile phone users will be able to keep their hands warm while they chat without taking their phones out of their pockets or handbags.

Mr. Miles designed two pairs of the new gloves — one in pink and the other in brown and yellow. They will appear in an exhibition this July and visitors will be able to win the gloves. If demand is high, they will then be produced on a larger scale. O2 Recycle, which backed the project, estimates that there are already 70 million unused mobile handsets in the UK. The service pays up to 260 to those who recycle gadgets including phones, handheld consoles (操纵台), MP3 players and digital cameras.

Designer Sean Miles hopes his work will get people thinking about recycling. The 41-year-old said, "I hope that my 'Talk to the Hand' project will get people to think again about the waste created by not recycling gadgets. If a few more people recycle their gadgets rather than send them to trash, I think this project will have fulfilled its aim."

Bill Eyres, head of O2 Recycle, urges people to recycle their phone responsibly. He said, "There’s a pressing need for all of us to look at outdated handsets, and all the gadgets that we move on from or upgrade each year. Whether they are consoles or cameras, we should think of them as a resource that we need to recycle responsibly rather than throw them away."

【1】The underlined word "O2" in Paragraph 2 is probably the name of ______.

A. an artist B. a mobile

C. a company D. an exhibition

【2】 Consumers can buy the "Talk to the Hand" gloves ______.

A. in the exhibition

B. from Mr. Miles

C. after they recycle the gadgets

D. when they are mass-produced

【3】The purpose of the project is to _______.

A. promote the technology of IT

B. enable people to talk to their hands

C. raise peoples awareness of recycling

D. attract visitors’ attention in the exhibition

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A. New mobiles which are fashionable.

B. Outdated handsets which are upgraded.

C. Outdated gadgets which can be used for recycling.

D. New gloves which can be used for making phone calls.
