1.friends改为friend 考查名词.我最好的朋友Susan只有一人,要用单数形式.
2.serving改为served 考查动词语态:tea和serve是被动关系,要用一般过去时的被动语态.
3.when后加the 考查冠词.根据句意:服务员是朝我们走过来.waiter前加定冠词the表示特指.
4.raises改为raised 考查动词时态.全文讲述的是昨晚发生的事情,要用一般过去时态.
5.去掉to 考查词语用法.hit是及物动词,后直接接名词或代词作宾语,不必加介词.
6.In改为To 考查介词.to one's surprise意为"使某人惊奇的是",是固定搭配.
7.and改为or 考查连词.根据句意:幸好不是洒在衬衫上,否则我就不能把它洗干净了.用or,意为"否则".
8.His改为Her 考查代词.根据上文,应是"她的话",用her.
9.that改为what 考查连词.根据句子结构,happen缺少主语,在宾语从句中that不可作主语,用what,在句中作主语,同时引导宾语从句.
10.positively改为positive 考查形容词.way是名词,要用形容词来修饰作定语,p副词ositively的形容词是positive.

14.If English means endless new words,difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation,you are wrong.Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?
According to a new study by a British university,learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other lan guages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.
The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr.Andrea Mechelli,from University College London,took a group of Britons who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of"early bilinguals"who had learnt a second language before the age of five,as well as a number of later learners.
Scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language,the smaller the difference.
"Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,"said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.
Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales,has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills."Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible (灵活的),"he said."You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."
The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.Reading,writing,and comprehension were all tested.The results showed that the younger they started to learn,the better."Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,"explained the scientists.

15.Measuring up to 10.5 feet in length,the western green mamba (曼巴蛇) is the second longest snake in Africa,with the black mamba being the first.It is also the most agile (敏捷的) snake in the mamba family.Their color is changeable,which helps them join their environment.Another distinctive feature of the snake is its long tail with a sharp point.
The western green mamba lives in rain forests.Being an arboreal species,these snakes spend most of their time moving among the tree tops.However,they usually leave their trees to pursue a potential meal on the ground.The western green mamba is mostly active at day,but can also be seen hunting at night.
The diet of a western green mamba consists of birds and a variety of small mammals such as squirrels,mice and even bats.These snakes will approach their targets with the help of their natural skin color.When they are close enough,they will bite their victims and inject them with venom(毒液) quickly.Once the target has died,the weatern green mamba will swallow its meal whole.If faced with danger,these snakes will try to run away.If they are cornered,however,they will become extremely aggressive and strike with their sharp teeth repeatedly.The female weatern green mamba is the one who lays eggs.She will lay eggs anywhere.The young snakes are completely independent.The mother and father play no part in raising the baby snakes.The babies are born with everything they need to survive in the wilderness.They will have almost no natural predators(捕食者)to worry about when they reach adulthood.

19.In a little-known part of the counter-terrorism (反恐怖主义) world,one of the most effective detection systems is a 600-pound animal that works for about 20pounds of fish a day.
Since the 1960s,the United States and a handful of other countries have trained dolphins and sea lions to detect sea mines and swimmers,and to recover worn--out torpedoes (鱼雷) and testing objects used in naval (海军的) exercises.
The U.S.Navy kept its Marine Mammal Program a secret until the 1990s,and this spring CNN became one of the first members of the media to witness firsthand how the program works.
The program trains about 75Pacific bottlenose dolphins,with natural biosonar (生物声纳) that tracks better than any manmade device; and 35California sea lions,with very good underwater eyesight.
Not only do these trained marine mammals track and save millions of dollars in U.S.military equipment,they are also helping to save lives.The Navy won't reveal whether the dolphins and sea lions have effectively stopped terrorists attempting to do harm to the U.S.
A key part of the training program is teaching these mammals how to stop potentially unfriendly swimmers.The program is also positioned to defend against swimmer terrorist attacks as well.
In the digital age,it seems that there should be more advanced approaches to guard the Navy's most expensive things.But according to Rothe,the program director,nothing in today's high-technology world can compete with these mammals'biosonar abilities."I hope that one day there is a robot or a UUV (un-manned underwater vehicle) that makes the mammal program out of date,"he said."But right now this is the best thing out there."
25.The U.S.Marine Mammal Program trained marine mammals toA.
A.stop dangerous swimmers
B.catch 20pounds of fish a day
C.destroy sea mines
D.fire torpedoes
26.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A
A.The trained dolphins are the best way of protection available to the U.S.Navy.
B.There will be dolphin-like robots in the future according to Rothe.
C.The mammal program will become useless soon.
D.Rothe has no faith in today's high technology.
27.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?D
A.Many countries have trained sea animals for counter-terrorism.
B.The Marine Mammal Program was a secret until the 1960s.
C.The trained sea animals have already stopped some terrorists.
D.The U.S.Navy has trained both dolphins and sea lions.
9.More than 2.25billion cups of coffee are drunk throughout the world each day,and it's likely that many taste bitter.Now,a new study suggests that coffee fans can make their drink sweeter by changing the color of their cups.
Researchers from Oxford set out to prove whether the claim that coffee drunk from a white cup tastes bitter was true.They used 36volunteers and three different colored cups---blue,white and transparent(透明的) glass---to examine the claim.
In one experiment,the white cup increased the intensity (浓度) of the coffee taste relative to the transparent cup.Then,in a second experiment,coffee drunk from the white cup was found to taste less sweet when compared to the other colored cups,while the blue cup made the coffee taste the sweetest.
The scientists believe that the color brown may be associated with bitterness,and coffee in a white cup appears the brownest."Our study clearly shows that the color of a cup does influence our sense of the coffee taste,"leading author Dr George Doorn,wrote in an article for The Conversation."The effect of the color of the cup on the taste of the coffee reported here suggests that cafe owners should carefully consider the color of their cups,"he said,"The potential effects may spell the difference between a one-time purchase and a return customer."Actually,the idea that color can change the food and drink taste came out many years ago.A study published last year reported that red,strawberry-flavored cake served on a white plate was rated as 10percent sweeter than the same food presented on a black plate.
32.The passage is mainly aboutC.
A.the popularity of sweet coffee.
B.an experiment made in Oxford.
C.the effect of cup color on coffee's taste    
D.useful tips on how to make coffee.
33.In which cup will coffee taste the sweetestB
A.A white cupB.A blue cupC.A transparent cupD.A brown cup
34.Café owners should consider their cups'color in order toC.
A.reduce the daily expenses      
B.show their taste in coffee
C.appeal to more customers       
D.make their café different.
35.We learn from the passage thatD.
A.coffee in a white cup tastes sweeter than that in a transparent glass
B.over 2billion cups of sweet coffee are drunk worldwide each year.
C.Dr.George Doorn wrote an article about making conversations.
D.the idea that color could affect the taste of drink is not new.
14.We were on the way from Hutchinson to Chicago for a short spring break.For many years I had wanted to take my family on the train.We all had been to Chicago four years ago,and the kids loved it.Chicago is one of my favorite cities,too,so the thought struck me again last fall to ride the train to Chicago.Of course,flying would have been faster.But I don't think flying is easier,especially these days,with all the security and waiting in lines at airports.
Though we were tired in the middle of the night,the kids got on the train with the exhilaration of this adventure."We're moving,"my son William shouted happily with big eyes as the train began to pull away from the Hutchinson station.
I removed my shoes and lay down to try to finish my night's sleep.The sleeper car would have better enabled that,but the ordinary train seats were not too bad.An airline flight is a more miserable experience for me:not enough room,two hours of pain with my knees almost touching my chin,the hard seatback in front cracking my kneecaps (膝盖) with every move of the body planted in front of me.On the train I could almost outstretch all of my 6-foot-2-plus body in the generous legroom.
The journey didn't feel at all as long as it was.We all found the train ride a joy.The car ride would have felt every minute of 13hours.But on the train you are free to walk around,sit in the observation carriage for a while and enjoy the scenery out the windows,have a nice meal in the dining car,read a book,or play a board game.
In short,the train is all about enjoying the trip,which isn't something I do so much when traveling by airline or by car,when the trip seems more of a mission (任务) to get there than an experience to enjoy along the way.
Chicago offers much to do for a family.This time,getting there was half the fun.
63.We can learn from the first paragraph thatB.
A.the kids love the train journey
B.the author thought it was safer by train than by plane
C.the author didn't enjoy the long train journey
D.Chicago is one of the kid's favorite cities
64.What does the underlined word"exhilaration"in Paragraph 2probably mean?C
A.Tiredness.
B.Relaxation.
C.Excitement.
D.Worry.
65.In the third paragraph,an airline flight experience is mentioned to showA.
A.a train ride is more comfortable      
B.a train ride is too long
C.an airline flight is miserable           
D.an airline flight is easier
66.Which of the following words best describes the whole family's feeling about the train journey?D
A.Moved.
B.Nervous.
C.Disappointed.
D.Delighted.
