Dear Dr. Bamford,
I know you are a famous scientist who has done great work on cloning animals. Please excuse me for writing to you, but I need your help. Let me explain.
I am a 58-year-old man. I’m very rich. I live in a large house. My wife died three years ago; we didn’t have children.
So, am I lonely? No, because Cindy is with me. Every night we eat dinner together and watch TV. Cindy sits beside me and I feel very happy. I’m coaxzed with her beautiful green eyes. She’s also very smart. Sometimes she thinks only about herself. But that’s what I like about her. She is quite a beautiful Siamese cat. There is no other cat like her in the whole world.
These days I worry about losing Cindy. She is getting older and older. Cats don’t live so long as humans, of course, so she will die before I do. I cannot imagine my life without Cindy.
Well, why not get another cat after Cindy dies? Impossible! No other cats ever replace her.
I have been thinking about this: Clone Cindy. Scientists are able to clone sheep and mice and other animals. They should be able to clone cats without much difficulty. Luckily, I am a rich man. I don’t care how much money I will spend cloning Cindy. I think it’s ok to clone pets. It’s not cloning humans.
What do you think? Could you clone Cindy?
Sincerely,
A rich man
56. The writer has written the letter to Dr Bamford to _________.
A.show how smart his cat is B.explain why he lives alone
C.ask whether the scientist could clone his cat for him
D.show what he wants to deal with his cat
57. Which of the underlined word has the same meaning as the underlined word “coaxzed” in the text?
A.Children are attracted by the toys in the shop.
B.That’s an expected answer.
C.Who was defeated in the end?
D.The door was forced open by the policeman.
58. Which of the following sentences is correct according to the text?
A.The man got wealthy by feeding smart cats.
B.The man explained how his wife died.
C.The man thought cloning humans was more difficult.
D.The man thought cloning cats should be permitted.
B
Please do not buy any Parrot with unknown origin. Facing a pity parrot with bad living condition (or maybe even sick), a kindhearted person may have to deal with a big dilemma. Should I buy the bird, take it to the vet. And then leasrreze the bird? Or keep the bird at home? The person may decide to buy the bird. This gesture may save that particular parrot but at the same time encourage the poachers to catch more, naturally killing many more.
Members of the public are encouraged to provide information on illegal import, export, selling and possession of endangered species to ACFD（香港渔农自然护理署）. Person who provides true information leading to successful seizure(没收) of endangered species will be rewarded with cash. Please call the 24-hour report hotline 2150-6978.
Not only in Hong Kong, buying a wild-caught Parrot in mainland China is also unacceptable. Hope everyone will become the ambassador of wild Parrots. Let us catch the poachers, not parrots. Please cherish our natural environment. There is only one planet called the earth. Let us work together to keep the nature’s biodiversity(生物多样性).
59. From the theme, this text is _______.
A.a narrative B.a notice C.a comment D.a report

61. The underlined word “leasrreze” in the text means _______.

Dogs Smell Cancer in Patients’ Breath, Study Shows
Dogs can detect if someone has cancer just by sniffing the person’s breath, a new study shows. Ordinary household dogs with only a few weeks of basic "puppy training" learned to accurately distinguish between breath samples of lung - and breast-cancer patients and healthy subjects. "Our study provides clear evidence that cancers hidden beneath the skin can be detected simply by dogs examining the odors of a person’s breath, "said Michael McCulloch, who led the research.
Early detection of cancers greatly improves a patient’s survival chances, and researchers hope that man’s best friend, the dog, can become an important tool in early screening. Dogs can identify chemical traces in the range of parts per trillion(万亿). Previous studies have confirmed the ability of trained dogs to detect skin -cancer melanomas by sniffing skin injuries.
Also, some researchers hope to prove dogs can detect prostate(前列腺) cancer by smelling patients’ urine. "Cancer cells emit different metabolic waste products than normal cells,”Broffman said. "The differences between these metabolic( 新陈代谢的) products are so great that they can be detected by a dog’s keen sense of smell, even in the early stages of disease. "
The researchers used a food reward - based method to train five ordinary household dogs. Encountering breath samples captured in tubes, the dogs gave a positive identification of a cancer patient by sitting or lying down in front of a test station. By smell alone, the dogs identified 55 lung and 31 breast cancer patients from those of 83 healthy humans.
The results of the study showed that the dogs could detect breast cancer and lung cancer between 88 and 97 percent of the time. The high degree of accuracy went on even after results were adjusted to take into account whether the lung cancer patients were currently smokers. "It did not seem to matter which dog it was or which stage cancer it was, in terms of our results, "Broffman said.
63. How long does it take the ordinary household to learn to identify the people suffered from lung and breast cancer?
A. A few days. B. A few weeks. C. A few months. D. A few years.
64．If dogs can identify the patients who suffered cancers in early screening, ________.
A. the patients will also die the same time as those unidentified
B. the patients will die earlier than those unidentified
C. the patients will have more possibilities to survive
D. the patients will have less possibilities to survive
65. What is not the reason why dogs can detect some cancers even in the early stages of diseases?
A. Cancer cells emit different metabolic waste products than normal cells’.
B.Dogs can identify chemical traces in the range of parts per trillion than normal cells.
C.Cancer cells’ metabolic waste products are much different than normal cells’.
D. Because all the cancers are easy to detect.
66. It can be inferred that by smelling the person’s breath, dogs can detect most of the patients who suffered ___.
A. prostate cancer and skin cancer B. breast cancer and lung cancer
C. prostate cancer and breast cancer D. lung cancer and skin cancer

When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, he could never have predicted what it would be able to do in the future. Now, 130 years later, it’s no surprise when someone takes out a cell phone to make a call while on the move.
But phones are no longer just used to make calls. Japan’s 90 million cell phone owners also use their machine’s modern technology and tiny screens (half the size of a business card) to play video games, send e-mails, read news, download music, store photos and surf the Internet. Since April, they’ve been able to use their cell phones to watch TV.
Following several months of test broadcasts, digital TV broadcasts for cell phones with special receivers began in Japan’s major cities. The special cell phones are hard to find because only a small number were put on sale. The excitement surrounding mobile TV means that the limited number of handsets quickly sold out.
Misogo Kado, a 37-year-old software designer from Yokohama, near Tokyo, bought one of the new cell phones earlier this month.
He is a big fan of the new technology. “You know how every cell phone now comes with a digital camera? In the same way, this is going to become a standard feature,” Kado said of the TV service. “It’s not something you have to pay for. If you’re buying a cell phone, you might as well get one with it.”
While the service is new for Japan, it is not the world’s first. South Korea and Britain have made TV available to their cell phone customers with the use of slightly different technology. The new service in Japan, however, is free.
Not only that, it uses broadcasting airwaves(电视频道) instead of an Internet connection. The images are sent through the air by TV towers, not satellites.
This terrestrial(陆地的) digital broadcast system means that more people will be able to use the service. Imagine what our phones will be able to do in another 130 years’ time!
67. What is the best title of the text?
A.A special cell phone. B.Hi-tech into life.
C.How quickly cell phones change. D.TV goes mobile.
68. Which function doesn’t refer to for an advanced mobile phone in Japan in the text?
A.Being used as an ID. B.Taking photos.
C.Getting online. D. Downloading music.
69. The writer took Misogo Kado for example to show _______.
A.the mobile service is enjoyed only by IT workers
B.new technology is always gone after by someone
C.it’s a must to get a cell phone with TV programmes
D.digital products are very common in Japanese life
70. From the text we know ________.
A.there are 90 million cell phone owners can watch TV with their cell phones in the world
B.it’s easy to buy a cell phone which can receive TV programmes in Japan
C.the mobile TV service in Japan differs from those in South Korea and Britain
D.it’s by satellites that the mobile service is sent through the air

Washington----As high school students in the US head back to class, they might be surprised to find that several different theories on how humankind came to this world might be taught in their science class in the new semester.
There is already a centuries-long hot debate about whether people were created by God or the result of evolution(进化). Started in 1858, when British scientist Charles Darwin published his famous book, The Origin of Species, the debate seems to have never stopped.
A third theory called “intelligent design” has joined the debate recently. It says that the evolution of all life is under the guide of a super and unknown power, perhaps it is God. Critics say this opinion is also religious rather than scientific.
Many students in religious schools in the US are still taught that all life was created by God, as it says in the Bible.___________Darwin’s evolutionary theory says all life on earth has developed from simpler forms of life. The difference between one species and another is due to generations of struggle for survival, resulting in genetic and physical changes.
By studying living species and fossils(化石), Darwin came up with the theory of natural selection. He said that over time, only the fittest of the species would survive. These survivors pass on their changes to the next generation to ensure continued survival.
Today, the scientific community largely believes evolution is the fact. But some Christians who criticize Darwin’s theory say it does not show clearly where life come from. People who support intelligent design argue that Darwin failed to fully explain why there are so many different forms of life on the planet. So evolution is also a theory instead of fact. Therefore, other theories should also be taught.
Scientists, teachers and even US President George W. Bush are arguing as to whether students should be taught creationism, intelligent design, evolution, or all of them.
It may be still early to say where the debate goes. It seems that students need to make their own choice.
71. Which of the following can be put into the blank in the text?
A.This is called evolution. B.This is called creationism.
C.The Bible is a great book. D.Students don’t believe it.
72. What are high school students likely to be surprised at according to the text?
A.They are to do research study in class on how human came to this world.
B.They will head back to class in this new semester to study nature science.
C.They need to make the latest choice about several different evolution theories.
D.They have to be taught in their science on creationism, intelligent design and evolution.
73. Which of the following belongs to The Origin of Species according to the text?
A.God created the world in seven days according to the Bible.
B.Darwin’s theory does not show clearly where life comes from.
C.Darwin fails to fully explain so many different forms of life.
D.All life on earth has developed from simpler forms.
74. The underlined word “It” in the third paragraph refers to “________”.
A.The Origin of Species B.Intelligent design C.Evolution D.Creationism
75. According to the text, the writer’s attitude is _______.
A.that the debate on evolution by Darwin should go on
B.the three theories should be taught in the USA
C.that it’s up to the students by themselves in the USA
D.that debate among the three theories never ends

第四部分 写作（共两节，满分45）
第一节 阅读表达：阅读所给的一篇短文，并根据文章后的题目要求进行简答（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
A person, like a commodity（商品），needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration, however, does no harm when it shows the person’s unique qualities to their advantages. To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment（装饰），so that the person so packaged is not a commodity but a human being, lively and lovely.
A young person, especially a female, shining with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt ____________. Youth, however, comes and goes in a flash. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course, as it should. You have really lived your life, which now arrives at a self-satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth. There is no need to make use of hair dyeing. The snow-capped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony（和谐）with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. Elderly people are usually packed like a finely—made book
As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a
commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging.
1.What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
To be in the elder’s company is like reading a thick book of deluxe (better quality) edition
that attracts one so much as to be unwilling to part with.
_____________________________________________________________________________
3. Please fill in the blank in the passage with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.
(Please answer within 10 words.)
____________________________________________________________________________
4. What do you think of “to keep in harmony with nature” according to the author? (Please answer within 30 words.)
____________________________________________________________________________
5. Translate the last paragraph into Chinese.

45.D 考查名意理解。这句是对前面谚语的解释，显然只有valuable符合句意。
46.A 考查推理判断。从后面的another way可知是指媒体上的“建议专栏”。本题较难，易误选B。
47.D 考查句意理解。这里指获取建议。
48.C 考查动词区别。这里构成express oneself搭配，意为“表达自己的心声”，符合语境。本题较难，易误选A。
49.B 考查上下文提示。从下文知他们是不害怕寻求帮助。本题较难，易误选A。
50.A 考查动词区别。这里是“谈论”自己的问题。
51.D 考查句意理解。这里指“分享”自己的经历。
52.C 考查句意理解。这里应该是“帮助朋友摆脱困境”，故用help out。
53.B 考查推理判断。这里指十分受尊重。
54.A 考查上下文提示。从前面的motivational stories可知应该是积极向上的内容，故A项正确。本题较难，易误选D。
55.B 考查推理判断。既然是帮助朋友，当然是在他们有trouble的时候了。
56.C 考查目的推断。通读文章可知这个富人写信的目的就是想打听是否可以克隆他的猫。
57.A 考查词义猜测。文章中划线词是命题者虚构的一个单词，根据该词所在的句意知其意为“使入迷；被吸引”，故A项正确。
58.D 考查正误判断。A项与文章意思不符合，文中没提到他是如何致富的；B项文章中没提到；C项并不是那个人的观点；通过推理判断知D项正确。
59.B 考查文体理解。A项指“记叙”，B项指“通知、告示”，C项指“评/议论”，D项指“报道”。本文是提醒人们不要购买野生的Parrots，以及如何对付那些贩卖野生动物者，显然本文是一个告示，故B项正确。
60.C 考查细节理解。从第二段最后一句可知。
61.A 考查词义猜测。文章中划线词是命题者虚构的一个单词，从该词所在句的意思及后一句Or keep the bird at home?的意思可知其意为“释放”，故A项正确。
62.D 考查主旨理解。文章第一段讲述不要购买wild parrots，第二段讲述非法拥有wild parrots都是违法的，最后一段讲述保护生物多样性的重要性，因此，D项最能概括文章的主旨。
63.B 细节题。根据第一段第二行可知答案。
64.C 推断题。根据文章第二段首句得出答案。
65.D 判断题。根据第三段内容得出答案。
66.B 推断题。根据文章倒数第二段最后一句可知答案。
67.D 考查主旨理解。A项太普通，不吸引人；B、C两太笼统，与文章联系不紧密；D项既点题，又吸引人，故为文章的标题。本题较难，易误选C。
68.A 考查细节理解。从文章第二段知只有A项手机用作“身份证”没提到。
69.B 考查推理判断。A项中only by IT workers与文章内容不符合；C项与文章第五段中的倒数第二句不吻合；D项显然与本主题联系不大，故只有B项正确，从该手机受欢迎的程度可推知。
70.C 考查推理判断。A项中in the world不对，应该是in Japan；B项容易购买此新型手机与文章内容不吻合；C与文章中六段正好吻合；D项与文章第七段不吻合。
71.B 考查篇章结构理解。该空前面讲述上帝创造人，后面才讲述达尔文的进化论，因此，应该是B正确。其中C、D项干扰很强，C项与下文联系不大，而D项与前文则矛盾。
72.A 考查细节理解。从文章的第一段可知。另从倒数第二段可知D项内容还没有确定，因此错误。本题较难，易误选D。
73.D 考查推理判断。The Origin of Species一书是达尔文写的，再从第四段空格后的内容可知。
74.B 考查词义指代。从It前的一句可知，这两的并列关系。
75.C 考查态度推断。从文章最后一句话可知，其它选项可用排除法来排除其正确性。
阅读表达答案及简析
1. Packaging A Person （人的包装）或Proper Packing Makes People Attractive
简析：从整篇文章来看，主要在讲打扮对一个人的重要性，就象商品的包装一样，打扮能使一个人保持他/她独特的魅力（文章一开始就说“A person, like a commodity（商品），needs packaging.”。）。
2. elderly people are usually packed like a finely-made book
简析：所给句子的意思是“老年人的社会阅历丰富，就象一本高质量的书对作者有很大的吸引力，这就是他们的魅力所在。”正好与倒数第二段最后一句中的内容意思相符。
3. to make up would be self-defeating
简析：第二段一开始就说“青年有着充盈的生命的底气，她亮丽诱人，这是上帝赐予的神采，任何涂抹都是多余的败笔，．．．。
4. I think we should follow the ageing process.(Any answer like this can be OK.)
简析：从第二段“Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony（和谐）with nature,….”中，我们可以得知打扮必须随着年龄的变化而变化，不能可以追求与年龄不相符的打扮，否则会适得其反。
5.①人只要真正找到了自己，就找到了品牌，就找到了恰当的包装。
② 只要你理解自己所处的境地，就知道该如何包装自己，正如拥有合适包装的商品成为知名品牌。
③人只要了解了自己的特点；就知道应该怎样正确地包装自己，就像商品通过适当的包装之后建立了属于它自己的品牌一样。
简析：as long as“只要．．．．．．”；just as“就象．．．．．．一样”

My opinion on copying others’ homework
It is known to us all that some students copy others’ homework. As students, we have to do plenty of homework both at home and at school, but sometimes we have some homework which is too difficult for us. On the other hand, some students are lazy, and are not interested in their lessons. They don’t work hard. In order to finish the assignments and please their teachers, some students copy others’ homework.
In my opinion, it is wrong to copy others’ homework because it breaks the school rules. Students should be honest and try to finish our homework by ourselves instead of by copying. Even though we have trouble doing our homework we can ask our classmates or teachers for help.

W: We’ve been hearing a lot about the actor, Vinnie Jones. Over in Britain he’s really well known, isn’t he?
M: Well, yeah, he’s much better known in Britain than he is here, in America.
W: So, what’s the big deal? What’s so special about Vinnie Jones?
M: Well, before he became an actor, he was already well known as a soccer player. In fact, I’d say he’s still more famous for his soccer skills than his acting.
W: Which team did he play for? Manchester United?
M: No, no, in fact for much of his profession, he played for Wimbledon.
W: Wimbledon?
M: Yes, they’re not as successful as Manchester United. But while he was playing for them, they beat Liverpool and won the Cup.

I like playing soccer, but I am not very good at it. I do not usually play on my school’s soccer team. I am a reserve player. This means that I play only if another player on the team can’t play or is hurt during a game. I have only played in one of the games this year. That was the game we played yesterday. In the middle of the game, one of the players hurt his knee. “Take his place,” the coach said. I ran onto the field. Soon a player on the other team ran towards me with the ball. We were both near my team’s goal. I ran towards him. I got the ball away from him. “I can’t kick very hard,” I thought. “I’ll kick the ball to my goal-keeper. He can pick it up and kick it to the other end of the field.” I did this, but I kicked the ball too hard. The goal-keeper couldn’t get it. The ball went into the goal. I had scored on our own goal! The coach called my names. I don’t think the coach will ask me to play for the team again.

In my childhood, the whole family would sometimes go on a diet, for fear that we were all oversize. Far from so. In fact, one of my brothers was and now is one of the thinnest people I have ever known. The reason for all this dieting was partly my father’s health and partly my mother’s strange ideas. My father had heart trouble for quite some time and the doctor advised him to cut down on fats and smoking. My mother considered this as a sign that all of us should control ourselves from overeating and she immediately cut our food portions by half. My brothers and I were so hungry that we had to spend our pocket money on cream cakes. We need not have worried though. After only a week we surprised our mother by secretly eating one slice of fruitcake in the kitchen. She laughed at this. My father said life wasn’t worth living unless you could eat whatever you wanted. So she agreed to start cooking more.
