Pines are defined as evergreens with long, needle-like leaves and are only native to the northern hemisphere. Pine trees are an adaptable and tough species that can survive in many conditions where other plants cannot. The average pine tree is 45 to 60 feet tall, but some are nearly twice as high.Western White PineThe western white pine grows the tallest of any pine tree, reaching up to 110 feet in height. They have blue-green needles arranged in bundles (束) of five and produce a long cone (球果).Bristlecone PineThe bristlecone pine grows slowly, reaching about 20 feet tall. It is one of the oldest species of pine.Mexican PineThe Mexican pine can grow to 50 feet tall, with long, slender needles that drape (下垂) off it like a weeping willow (柳树). Often nicknamed the “willow pine”, it is native to Mexico. Its leaves can droop up to 12 inches long.Sugar PineThe sugar pine is another of the large pine species, such as the bull pine, but it also has the largest cones of any pine species, at 10 to 20 inches long. It grows from Oregon to California and is often used for construction.Jack PineThe jack pine is one of the smallest species of pine with rare leaves. Compared with the pines mentioned above, it doesnt seem to belong in the family. It is considered a member of the scrub-pine family; it prefers sandy soil.41. From the first paragraph, we know that pines _.A. are native to North AmericaB. are very adaptableC. can grow to 60 feet tall at mostD. usually grow in tough conditions42. Which of the following pines is often used as a building material?A. The Mexican pine B. The bristlecone pineC. The sugar pine D. The jack pine43. The Mexican pine _.A. is the oldest species of pine B. produces a long coneC. has willow-like needles D. prefers sandy soil44. We can learn from the passage that _.A. the Mexican pine has the longest leavesB. the jack pine doesnt seem to belong to the same family as the other pine treesC. the bull pine is a kind of little pine treeD. all the pine trees mentioned have a great number of leavesBPeople who smoke could lose around one third of their everyday memory, researchers say.A study by a team at the University of Northumbria has shown that smokers lose more of their memory when compared to non-smokers. And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as non-smokers.The study involved more than seventy 18-to 25-year-old volunteers and included a tour of the universitys campus. Those who took part were asked to recall(回忆；回想)small details, such as music acts listed to play at the students union and tasks completed at various points-known as a real-world memory test.Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 percent of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.Dr. Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria Universitys Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in anti-smoking campaigns. He said, “Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many as 45 million in America, its important to understand the effects that smoking has on everyday cognitive function.”This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has an effect on memory. We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits to the body, but this study also shows how stopping smoking can bring a series of benefits to cognitive function. The research will now investigate the effects of second-hand smoking on memory, while Dr. Heffernan will look into third-hand smoking, such as toxins (毒素) left on curtains and furniture.45. What would be the best title for the passage?A. The Effects That Smoking Has on HealthB. New Research on Third-Hand SmokingC. Smokers Have Much Worse Everyday MemoryD. Anti-Smoking Campaigns Are Active Around the World46. The underlined words, “kicked the habit”, in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_”.A. giving up smoking B. smoked at timesC. smoked regularly D. hated smoking47. What was the real-world memory test like?A. It needed young volunteers to complete some tasks.B. It was about making a tour of the universitys campus.C. It needed volunteers to act at the students union.D. It involved a tour and a process of recalling some details.48. We can learn from the passage that _.A. America has twice as many smokers as the UKB. the research findings will help anti-smoking campaignsC. the effects of second-hand smoking on memory have been found by the studyD. those who have stopped smoking have as good a memory as non-smokersCThe life expectancy is the length of time that a person is normally likely to live. As it increases nowadays, the average person lives beyond the age of retirement. As a result, the elderly make up an ever-increasing percentage of society, which makes it more important to make effort to improve the lives of senior citizens.First of all, one way would be to make sure that the elderly have enough money on which to live. Obviously, when a person stops working, they still require a source of income to cover their basic needs such as food, accommodation and heating. A clear solution to the problem is for the government to make sure that the state pension(养老金) is enough for these needs.Measures should also be taken to overcome the health problems the elderly face. The government should also provide access to the best health care available, which may necessitate paying for residential homes where the elderly can have round-the-clock nursing, or, at least, providing medication free of charge to all people over a certain age.If we try to address the problem of social isolation (社交孤立), the lives of old people could be improved. If we organize trips for the elderly to community centers, visits from social workers, their problem of loneliness can be reduced a lot which marks the lives of so many old people living alone and far from their families.The last helpful suggestion is to change the attitude of the community towards its older members, who are all too often seen as a burden on society. We need to be taught from an early age to respect the views of old people, and appreciate their broader experience of life. This would help society as a whole, and encourage appreciation of the role that old people can still play today.49. What does underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. time B. retirement C. life expectancy D. age50. What factors affected the old peoples life?a. the state pensionb. the basic needsc. the attitude of the communityd. the experience of lifee. social isolationf. medical careA. b, c, d, e B. a, b, c, d C. a, c, e, f D. c, d, e, f51. According to the last suggestion, the old people _.A. should be respected by all of usB. may be regarded as our heavy burdenC. must change their attitude to the communityD. have to gather more life experience DMan has been to the moon. It has been the first step towards future exploration in space. When compared with the distances between Earth and the other planets, the distance between the Moon and Earth is very short indeed. Mars, the nearest planet to Earth is millions of miles away! Traveling to the planets will be mans next step. Such travels will be more challenging than the trip to the moon and certainly more exciting and dangerous. Recently, two American spaceships, Viking 1 and 2, landed on Mars trying to discover whether that planet has any life on it. So far the signs of life on Mars has neither been confirmed nor ruled out (排除). Russians have discovered that the surface of Venus is so hot that it is almost certain that there is no life there. Also the atmosphere of Venus is extremely dense and the pressure is nearly a hundred times greater than that of the Earths atmosphere. Scientists believe man may find planets which have the same conditions as those we have on Earth, but man should realize Earth will be his only home for a long time and begin to love and care for it.52. Based on the passage, traveling to the planets will be _.A. mans first stepB. much easier and even more interestingC. for more exciting and dangerousD. mans final aim53. Which of the following is Not true?A. Mars is nearer to the earth than the moon.B. The moon is much nearer to the earth than Mars.C. Of all the planets, Mars is the nearest to the earth.D. All the planets are much farther to the earth than the moon.54. Man can live in a place under the conditions of _.A. the same pressure as we get on earthB. much too hot surfaceC. normal atmosphere as we have on earthD. Both A and C55. Scientists think we should take care of our earth because _.A. the only home of man will be the earth for a long timeB. the dream to find another home for man will come trueC. no other planets are to take the place of the earthD. everything needed is provided by the earth第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，共10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Are you afraid of making mistakes?Learn to accept mistakes as opportunities, then youll feel less stressed and fearful and youll be more confident. 56 So what should you do? 57 Accept that youre human and that each of us will make mistakes. 58 If you are open to learning from your mistake, you will be able to move on rather than wallowing in (沉湎于) regret.Be awareIn other words, look for areas of improvement.
