阅读下列短文,从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

People born in the autumn live longer than those born in the spring. They are less likely to fall chronic(长期的)ill when they are older, according to an Austrian scientist. Using census (人口普查) data for more than one million people in Austria, Denmark and Australia, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research in the northern German town of Rostock found the month of Birth was related to life expectancy(估计寿命)over the age of 50.Seasonal differences in what mothers ate during pregnancy, and infections occurring at different times of the year could both have an impact on the health of a new-born baby and could influence its life expectancy in older age. “A mother giving birth in spring spends the last phase of her pregnancy in winter, when she will eat less vitamins than in summer,” said Gabriele Doblhammer, one of a team of scientists who carried out the research. “When she stops breast-feeding and starts giving her baby normal food, it’s in the hot weeks of summer when babies are prone(容易的)to infections of the digestive system.” In Austria, adults born in autumn lives about seven months longer than those born in spring, and in Denmark adults with birthdays in autumn outlived those born in spring by about four months. In the southern hemisphere, the picture was similar. Adults born in the Australian autumn lived about four months longer than those born in the Australian spring. The study focused on people born at the beginning of the 20th century, using death certificates and census data.

56.Which of the following is true?

    A.Austria and Denmark are both in the northern hemisphere.

    B.People born in autumn live longer than those born in summer.

    C.Both Austria adults and Australian adults with birthdays in autumn live about four months

      longer than those born in spring.

    D.The study is carried out mainly among people born at the end of the 20th century.

57.Which is not the factor that causes the life expectancy differences between people born in different seasons?

    A.What mother eat during pregnancy

    B.Infections occurring at different times of the year.

    C.The number of vitamins mothers eat during pregnancy.

    D.Weather impact, such as temperature

58.What might be the best title for the passage?

    A.Mothers and new-born baby

    B.Life expectancy

    C.Seasonal difference and life expectancy

    D.An important research

B

A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.

A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness, amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.

Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author’s minds ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time has been to sift out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.

Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived.We hear what they said and did; we see them as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were, in a measure, actors with them in the scenes which they describe.

The great and good do not die even in this world.Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad.The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which one still listens. Hence we ever remain under the influence of the great men of old.The imperial intellects of the world are as much alive now as they were ages ago.

59.Which of the following is not the reason why a book is the best of friends?

A.That it will never change.

B.That it is the most patient and cheerful of companions.

C.That it doesn’t turn its back upon us.

D.That it goes away from us in times of adversity or distress.

60.Which of the following about books is true?

A.Books can decay.

B.Books are bad products.

C.Books possess an essence of immortality.

D.Temples survive the same as books.

61.A man may usually be known by _________

A.the books he reads              B.his company  

C.the statues                    D.time

62.Why don’t the great and good die even in the world?

A.Because they can have a longer life span.

B.Because they like books.

C.Because they are statues

D.Because their spirits are embalmed in books.

63.By writing the passage, the author wants to tell us ________

A.how to make friends

B.books can also be our best friends

C.the great and good not die in this world

D.how to read books

C

(05北京卷 C篇)

How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments-mostly for entertainment purposes-is fair and respectful?

Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.

Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.

The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.

Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered.Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats. Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild.Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?

Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.

64.How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos?

    A.Dangerous.     B.Unhappy.       C.Natural.        D.Easy.

65.In the state of zoochosis,  animals _________.

    A.remain in cages                  B.behave strangely 

    C.attack other animals               D.enjoy moving around

66.What does the author try to argue in the passage?

    A.Zoos are not worth the public support.

    B.Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.

    C.Zoos should treat animals as human beings.

    D.Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.

67.The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.

    A.pointing out the faults in what zoos do

    B.using evidence he has collected at zoos

    C.questioning the way animals are protected

    D.discussing the advantages of natural habitats

68.Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that __________.

    A.zoos have to keep animals in small cages

    B.most animals in zoos are endangered species

    C.some endangered animals are reproduced in zoos

    D.it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats

D

Accidental discoveries have often opened the door to beauty and wonder. The rock paintings in France that date back 15,000 years, for example, were discovered by two boys who were looking for shelter from the rain. The paintings later became the "find of last century".
  Or, the Sanxingdui Ruins (三星堆遗址), known by historians as the "Ninth Wonder of the World", were discovered in Sichuan Province by a farmer.
  In the spring of 1929, Yan Qingbao, then a 43-year-old farmer, discovered
a circular piece of jade (玉) while digging a hole. Driven by curiosity, he dug deeper and found a group of about 400 colourful jade pieces.
  At the time, he had no idea his discovery would be as important as other wonders of the world such as, China's Great Wall and Egypt's pyramids.
  Since then, more than 10,000 relics (文物), dating back to between 5,000 and 3,000 BC have been unearthed at Sanxingdui.
  These relics include gold, pottery (陶器), bone tools and ivory (象牙) objects.
  They prove that Sanxingdui contains the ruins of an ancient city that was once the political, economic and cultural centre of the ancient Shu Kingdom — the old name for Sichuan.
  It has helped modern historians realize that Sichuan's human history goes back more than 5,000 years. And, located on the upper part of the Yangtze River, the site challenges the common idea that Chinese civilization (文明) rose from a single source — the Yellow River valley.
  Sanxingdui was named the Scientific Education Base for China's Youth in March this year.
  But still, only four of the Sanxingdui Ruins' 12 square kilometres have been uncovered.Who knows what other big surprises are waiting to be shown to the world?

69.Why does the author cite the carvings and paintings discovered by two boys in France at the beginning of the passage?

  A.to express the idea that accidental discoveries have often opened the door to beauty and

   wonder.

  B.The discovery is as important as that of the Sanxingdui Ruins.

  C.To serve as an example of great discovery.

  D.To signify the importance of the find of last century.

70.The relics unearthed at Sanxingdui includes _________.

    A.gold                       B.pottery  

    C.bone tools and ivory objects         D.all of the above.

71.From the passage we can conclude that _______.

  A.Chinese civilization (文明) rose from a single source — the Yellow River valley.

  B.Sanxingdui contains the ruins of an ancient city that was once the political, economic and cultural centre of the ancient Shu Kingdom.

  C.Sichuan's human history goes back more than 5,000 years.

  D.Besides the source of the Yellow River valley, Chinese civilization possibly rose from another source.

Asia is the largest of the continents of the world.It is larger than Africa, larger than either of the two Americas, and four times as large as Europe. Asia and Europe form a huge land mass. Indeed Europe is so much smaller than Asia that some geographers regard Europe as a peninsula (半岛) of Asia.Many geographers say that the Ural Mountains form the dividing line between Europe and Asia.Some think differently. But all geographers agree that Asia was once linked to North America.Or, to be more exact, Alaska was at one time connected with the tip of Siberia.The ancestors of American Indians, geographers say, were Asians. 30,000 years ago they went across the land bridge and settled down in new homes. Only a small canal separates Africa from Asia.But before the Suez Canal was cut in 1869 Asia was also linked to Africa.

The highest point of the earth is in Asia.This is the peak of the Himalaya Mountains. It is over 29,140 feet high. At this altitude the air is very thin and the weather is uncertain. So the climbing is very difficult. People take great pride in getting to that peak.

The world’s great religious originated from Asia: Buddhism from India, Christianity from Palestine, Islam from Arabia.Today Buddhism and Islam are the principal religions of much of Asia.

Asia is also the most populous continent. China, the country with the largest population in the world, is in Asia.One half of the world’s population are Asians. A Chinese is an Asian, a Japanese is an Asian, and an Indian is an Asian. So is an Iranian, a Palestinian, an Iraqi, a Filipino, a Singaporean. A meeting of Asians is usually a large gathering. The Asian Games meet every four years, sometimes with as many as 40 nations taking part. There was a time when Asia led the world in civilization. Today most of the Asian countries are still developing countries. They are working very hard to catch up in science and technology. They must. They have little time to lose.

72.Ancestors of American Indians were _________

  A.Europeans    B.Indians       C.Americans    D.Asians

73._______separates Africa from Asia.

  A.The Ural Mountains              B.The Himalaya Mountains

  C.The Atlantic                 D.The Suez Canal

74.Christianity originated from __________

  A.Arabia      B.Europe      C.Palestine     D.India

75.Which of the following statement about Asia is NOT true?

   A.Asia is the most populous continent.

   B.Today most of the Asian countries are still developing countries.

   C.The highest point of the earth is in Asia.

   D.Asia was once connected with South America.

单项填空 答案与解析:

21.答案:A 解析:本题考查的是情景对话。对于不愉快的事,口语中常用“Forget it”作为回答,表示“别放在心里”。

22.答案:D 解析:本题考查从句的用法。“How close parents are to their children”是一个主语从句,作为一个整体理解,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。

23.答案:A 解析:此题考查定语从句和强调的用法。第一个空用which引导一个定语从句;第二个空用that连接强调句的其它成分。

24.答案:C 解析:本题考查时态。“I didn’t know”这个动作发生在说话前,因此用一般过去时;第二个空遵循时态一致的原则。

25.答案:D 解析:此题的lack是名词,lack of something为常用短语。

26.答案:C 解析:whoever在句中引导宾语从句,又在宾语从句中作主语,相当于anybody who。此题要注意不能选whomever。

27.答案:D 解析:此题考查连词用法。“It be+一段时间+before…”是固定结构,该结构的

意思是“要过……(长)时间才……”。when“......的时候”;since“从......开始”;

unless“除非”;根据题意D最佳。

28.答案:C 解析:B项不能引导一个句子;C常与wh-句子连用;从句意上看此处只能是

“无论”,所以C正确。

29.答案:C 解析:本题考查状语从句的省略问题。错选A者认为as 为"当……时候",而

as 强调"一边……一边",而此强调"在……时候(期间)",故先选when;此外,本题考查省略

句。当从句与主句主语一致,且从句中的动词为be时,可将从句中主语及be 省略。

30.答案:B 解析:此题考查动词短语“spread across”。

31.答案:B 解析:此题考查反意问句。此题容易错选C。family的含义有两种:指家庭整

体时为单数;指具体成员时为复数形式,要根据其所表达含义而定。根据quarreling,此

时是指一家人。故选B。

32.答案:D 解析:根据题意选before,表示“在 … 之前”,本题易误选C。

33.答案:C 解析: 考查并列句。此题容易误选B,当成是一个非限制性定语从句。根据从

句中主语和宾语都完整,可以看出是并列句。

34.答案:D 解析:本题考查词组的用法。have [gain, get, obtain] access to的意思是“得接近; 得会见; 得进入; 得使用”。

35.答案:C 解析:此题考查主谓一致。Quantity后的谓语动词应和quantity的单复数保持一致。

完形填空 答案与解析:

36.答案:C 解析:此处表示最早已知的定居者,因此选known。

37.答案:D 解析:此题考查词义辨析。through指“(从 …内部)穿过 …”;across指“横

跨”。另外两个差距太大。

38.答案:C 解析:用ago表示纯粹的过去,本句意思是:10,000 years 前来到此地。

39.答案:A 解析:此处选A表示“到达此地”,reach为及物动词。

40.答案:B 解析:此处是“be covered by (覆盖着…)”的省略。

41.答案:D 解析:only a few “只有一些”。要注意:尽管此词组表示的数量不多,但不

能用only few。

42.答案:C 解析:本句主语为people,所以谓语要求用复数形式。

43.答案:A 解析:此处cross为动词,意思是“跨过,穿过”。

44.答案:B 解析:此处record意思是“记录”。本句意思是“几乎没有他们早期活动的记

录。”

45.答案:C 解析:根据下文可以看出是法国人。

46.答案:D 解析:此题考查词组“in great numbers”,其表示“大量的”指代可数名词。

47.答案:D 解析:此处where引导一个非限定性定语从句,在句中作状语。

48.答案:A 解析:“by the time of …”意思是““到…时候为止”。

49.答案:B 解析:此处为动词的-ing形式作定语,意思是“生活在…”。

50.答案:C 解析:此处的until 与not搭配,意思是“直到…才”。

51.答案:B 解析:表示不确定的数量,这四个答案中唯一正确的形式为B,其它均不对。

52.答案:D 解析:此处“from…”表示“来自…”,指他们的祖籍。

53.答案:A 解析:构成词组:make up 意思是“组成…”。

54.答案:C 解析:“the turn of the century”意思是:世纪之交 。

55.答案:B 解析:come in意思是“来到,进入…”。

阅读理解 答案与解析:

56.答案:A 解析:从最后一段第一句话看出:奥地利和丹麦都位于北半球。

57.答案:D 解析: 从第二段可以得知妈妈在怀孕期间所吃的东西,一年当中不同期间流行的传染病以及妈妈在怀孕期间所摄入的维他命的数量都会导致平均寿命的不同,只有D选项提到的比如像温度这样的天气因素不是其中一个原因。

58.答案:B 解析:本文主要是讲了季节性差异和寿命的关系。

59.答案:D 解析:细节题。由文章第二段 “It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress.”一句,我们得到答案:D。

60.答案:C 解析:判断题。

61.答案:A 解析:细节题。文章第一句:A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keep; 提供了答题依据,答案:A。

62.答案:D 解析:细节题。

63.答案:B 解析:主旨题。全文的主题是以书为友。

64.答案:B 解析:细节题。 第四段 “Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.” 表明动物在动物园的生活不愉快。

65.答案:B 解析:细节题。 根据unusual 和self-destructive可推断出:动物在动物园饲养的情况下行为奇怪。

66.答案:A 解析:细节题, 信息源在文章最后一句: “Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.”

67.答案:A 解析:主旨大意题。文章通过分析动物园的各种弊端来说服读者接受他的观点。

68.答案:C 解析:文章倒数第二段说明:作者尽管反对动物园, 但他还是同意让濒危动物在动物园繁殖的做法。

69.答案:A 解析:篇章结构题。第一段的top sentence 是第一句: Accidental discoveries have often opened the door to beauty and wonder. 后面举例是为进一步说明主题句的。故选此答案。

70.答案:D 解析:细节题。

71.答案:D 解析:推理眼神题。A、B、C项都是文中提到的表面意思。只有D项是根据文章意义作出的推断。

72.答案:D 解析:细节题。文章第一段 “The ancestors of American Indians, geographers say, were Asians”一句给出答案。

73.答案:D 解析:细节题。亚洲和非洲的分界线是苏伊士运河。

74.答案:C 解析:细节题。文章第三段 “The world’s great religious originated from Asia: Buddhism from India, Christianity from Palestine, Islam from Arabia.”给出答案。

75.答案:D 解析:判断题。 选项D是错误的。

  Do you prefer shopping in a small shop or a big one? I would usually go to a big shop as there are many more different kinds of goods and you have greater freedom in choosing what you really like. The second reason that I like big shops is that if you buy more you will be able to buy at lower price. This will save you a lot of money. What’s more, big shops usually keep their goods in better order and provide more comfortable shopping areas. This, however, depends on when you go shopping. If you go shopping when there’s a large crowd, you won’t like it at all, as you will have to wait in line for a long time just to pay for your things. So when I do not buy a lot I will usually buy them in one of the corner shops. Although it’s a bit more expensive, it saves time.

  Have you ever experienced a fire? I have. It was quirt a terrifying experience.

  I was staying in a small hotel when I traveled to Germany last November. I t was an old hotel built of wood in the nineteenth century. And it kept a special custom of using wood for fire in the kitchen and the guest rooms. The manger believed that this would attract more people who like the old days.

  Now one evening, when I was busy with nothing, I suddenly grew very interested in the fire. I picked up one piece of burning wood and carried it to the window to check whether I could see the things outside in its light. When I opened the window, however, the wind blew in and the curtain caught fire. I was so afraid that I dropped the wood on the floor. This made the matter worse. The fire soon spread to the whole room. As I said, the hotel was built of wood. I rushed out of the room and cried help. It was pure luck that the manager was in the hotel at that moment and he soon organized a large army of people, who put out the fire in fifteen minutes. I have never dared to play with fire from then on.

M: I am thinking of taking a two-week holiday with my family in China, can you tell me something about the country?

W: Well, it’s a very big country and in two week’s time you may be able to visit only two or three places. So, let’s start with this question. What do you want to do when you travel, sight seeing, visiting old places or experiencing new thing?

M: My wife is most interested in shopping while my daughter wants to see different things. As for me .I like old things more than anything else.

W: In that case, you can go to Beijing for some time. There are quite a lot of old things to see, as it has been the capital for nearly six centuries.

M: How about shopping there?

W: Oh, there are so many Chinese things to buy. They have built quite a few shopping centers in the city and you can buy real things made in China at good prices, silk, china, tea, for example.

M: That sounds good. My wife likes silk and tea.

W: And for your daughter, if she wants to see different things, you can take her to many places. For example, she can visit the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and the Tian’anmen Square. She may have heard about these places. Anyway, they would offer a really new experience to her.

M: Hmm, sounds like Beijing is a place for at least one week.

W: Yes, I spent ten days there last summer. There are just too many things to see, to do and to experience.
