19.Ecotourism is a combination of ecology (the study of systems of living things) and tourism.It is (51)A"responsible travel to natural areas that preserves the environment and improves the welfare of the local people"by the International Ecotourism Society.Actually,ecotourism can mean travel to far-off places of great natural beauty,but not always in a(n) (52)Dway.It's a big business,and the attraction of money can cause people to think about (53)C first.While ecotourism offers benefits to people and ecosystems,it leaves ecosystems open to negative effects,too.
Costa Rica,once a Spanish colony,and independent since 1821,has an ecotourism industry worth over one billion dollars yearly,and thousands of jobs have been (54)B.Nearly 21percent of the land is now protected national parks,(55)A thanks to ecotourism.Nevertheless,due to the number of people visiting the country's natural places,some damage to the ecosystem has occurred.
While (56)A can have a negative impact on ecosystems,the same areas might have been (57)B by industries such as farming,logging,or mining if there were no ecotourism industry.Shelters (庇护所) have been created (58)C,keeping the ecosystem protected.And,by visiting beautiful rainforests and seeing rare animals,visitors get a sense of their (59)D,and of gratitude for them.Tour guides can also be educators who train people to love and care for the environment.Visitors can take these (60)B with them to their home countries.
Unfortunately,while their effect may not be(61)B in the off-season,the constant parade of visitors in the high season can be damaging.At one national park in Costa Rica,wild monkeys now feed on garbage left by the tourists.(62)C,ecotourists tend to seek out places with the rarest animals and plants,(63)D the most delicate living things.
It is easy to be critical of the ecotourism industry,but it is important to be (64)A as well.Ecotourism can never be"pure".We can't expect zero negative effects on the ecosystem.It is also (65)C to suppose that humans won't go anywhere accessible to them.If protection efforts are maintained and increased,those remaining places of undisturbed nature may be stressed,but they won't be destroyed.

13."If we can set it up so you can't unlock your phone unless you've got the right fingerprint(指纹),"Barack Obama asked last Tuesday,"why can't we do the same thing for our guns?"For this reasonable-sounding question,the president was praised throughout the media.
As it happens,though,there is a good answer to this question:there is no market for guns that work just some of the time.Guns are simple things designed to operate as easily and reliably as possible.The introduction of electronics eats away this simplicity,and to a degree that is absolutely unacceptable to the consumer.As President Obama well knows,the fingerprint software on his phone works rather erratically:Often it takes a user two or three tries to log in; occasionally,it falls asleep deeply and obeys the password.When this happens on an phone,the user is mildly inconvenienced.If this were to happen on a gun,the user would be dead.There is a reason that modern smartphones put the camera function outside of the authentication(认证) process.
How could we possibly think that guns are the same as other commercial products?It is true that,say,cars have become considerably safer over the last few decades; true,too,that"research"has contributed to this improvement.But it matters enormously that a car is not intended to hurt people,and that in a perfect world nobody would ever be injured by one.Can we say the same of guns?Of course not.Guns are killing machines,designed to do damage to living things.In fact,they have no other purpose.As such,the salient(突出的) question before any free people is not"are guns dangerous?"they are,but"who gets them,and why?"
This is not to say that nothing at all can be done to improve public safety.On an individual level,gun owners should do everything to ensure that their guns are kept away from children,and,where possible,they should train themselves in case they are ever called upon to shoot in anger.At the national level,the combination of better policing and economic growth can help to reduce crime-and,indeed,it has.In 1993,gun crime was more than twice as common as it is now,and there were fewer guns in circulation.Unpleasant as it is in its own right,that we have reached the point at which two-thirds of all guns-related deaths are deliberately self-inflicted (自虐) is a small victory.
How to deal with those deaths that remain?That is a tricky one.I do not know the answer,and nor,frankly,does anybody else.But selling fantasies to the ignorant is not going to cut it.
29.What does the writer mainly argue in this passage?B
A.Gun crime has been greatly reduced.
B.The idea of smart guns is not realistic.
C.Gun control will not succeed in America.
D.Guns-related deaths deserve public attention.
30.The underlined word"erratically"in Paragraph 2 probably meansC.
A.with effectiveness                                  
B.with passion and energy
C.in an unpredictable manner                     
D.in a reasonable and fair way
31.The writer supports his ideas in Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly byD.
A.analyzing statistics(数据)                         
B.presenting problems and solutions
C.quoting the authorities(引用权威)           
D.making comparisons and contrasts
32.Which of the following might the writer NOT agree with?A
A.Few know how to deal with guns-related deaths.
B.Efforts to improve public safety have partly paid off.
C.The nature of guns makes them different from other products.
D.Guns using fingerprint software can risk the lives of the users.
20.Women turn to online shopping
Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping,according to a study published last week in the US.
For Years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women,but during the 2014holiday season,58percent of those making online purchases were women.
"It shows how mainstream the Internet is becoming",said Lee Rainie,director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project Group,which carried out the study.
Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men.This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.
Users were more likely to shop online to save time.Internet users between the ages of 18and 29were responsible for some of the most dramatic(显著的)increases in the online gift-buying population this time around.
However,three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2014.They worried about credit card security,or just compared online prices with off-line prices,then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.
"But even if shoppers don't buy online,websites are becoming promotion tools for stores,"said Dan Hess,vice president of Comscore Networks Inc.Hess said that actually most stores'websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers.And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive on time.
"It's all about making the shopping experience more efficient,more reliable and more comfortable,"Hess said.
24.What can we know from the passage?D
A.People,except young,don't like to do gift-shopping online
B.American people only buy gifts in holidays.
C.Shopping off-line provides better service.
D  People like to do gift-shopping online.
25.According to Dan Hess,shopping onlineD.
A.is unsafe
B.is a waste of time  
C.is cheaper  
D.is convenient
26.From the passage we can infer thatB.
A.men usually decide how to spend money in the family
B..women usually decide what to buy in the family
C.the Internet is used in all the shops
D.more and more shops will sell their goods online.
27.Which of the following statements is true?C
A.There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2014.
B.People in the US were more likely to buy gifts online.
C.More women shopped online than men in 2014.
D.Most of the Internet users between the ages of 18and 29are women.
17.One day,Mr.Arnold was teaching a lesson,and things were going as normally as ever.He was explaining the story of human being to his pupils.He told them that,in the beginning,men were nomads (游牧); they never stayed in the same place for very long.Instead,they would travel about,here and there,in search of food,wherever it was to be found.And when the food ran out,they would move off somewhere else.
He taught them about the invention of farming and keeping animals.This was an important discovery,because by learning to cultivate (耕作) the land,and care for animals,mankind would always have food steadily.It also meant that people could reain living in one place,and this made it easier to set about tasks that would take a long while to finish,like building towns,cities,and all that were in them.All the children were listening attracted by this story,until Lucy jumped up:
"And if that was so important and improved everything so much,why are we nomads all over again,Mr.Arnold?"Mr.Arnold didn't know what to say.Lucy was a very clever girl.He knew that she lived with her parents in a house,so she must know that her family were not nomads; so what did she mean?
"We have all become nomads again,"continued Lucy,"The other day,outside the city,they were cutting the forest down.A while ago a fisherman told me how they fish.It's the same with everyone:when there's no more forest left the foresters go elsewhere,and when the fish run out the fishermen move on.That's what the nomads did,isn't it?
The teacher nodded,thoughtfully.Really,Lucy was right.Mankind had turned into nomads.Instead of looking after the land in a way that we could be sure it would keep supplying our needs,we kept developing it until the land was bare.And then off we would go to the next place!The class spent the rest o the afternoon talking about what they could do to show how to be more civilized (文明的).
The next day everyone attended class wearing a green T-shirt,with a message that said"am not a nomad!"
And,from then on,they set about showing that indeed they were not.Every time they knew they needed someting,they made sure that they would get it using care and control.If they needed wood or paper,they would make sure that they got the recycled kind.They ordered their fish from fish farms,making sure that the fish they received were not too young and too small.They only used animals that were well cared for,and brought up on farm.
And so,from their little town,those children managed to give up being nomads again,just as prehistoric men had done,so many thousands of years ago.

27.Why would early humans travel about in the beginning?C
A.To experience different lifestyles.
B.To go sightseeing in different places.
C.To find what they could to feed themselves.
D.To do more exercise to build themselves up.
28.From Paragraph 2,we can know thatD.
A.people got tired of living in the same place
B.people gradually got used to living in cities
C.people spent a long time in learning to keep animals
D.people tended to settle down after learning farming and keeping animals
29.The teacher thought Lucy's argument wasA
A.reasonable             B.unbelievable
C.puzzling               D.shocking
30.Which of the following agrees with the message"I am not a nomad"(Paragraph 7)?B
A.People eat young fish for its delicious taste.
B.People use recycled materials as much as possible.
C.Fishermen move elsewhere when there is no fish left.
D.Foresters leave the place where there is no wood left.
31.The writer tries to make us believe thatB.
A.mankind has been progressing mainly through traveling about
B.it's unwise for mankind to use the land in an uncontrolled way
C.it's quite good for students to learn more about the history of mankind
D.teachers should encourage students to voice their own opinions brvely.
