Probably the best example is the rush to produce ethanol(乙醇)for fuel from corn. Corn is a renewable resource you can harvest it and grow more, almost limitlessly. So replacing gas with corn ethanol seems like a great idea.One might get a bit more energy out of the ethanol than that used to make it, which could still make ethanol more sustainable than gas generally, but thats not the end of the problem. Using corn to make ethanol means less corn is left to feed animals and people, which drives up the cost of food. That result leads to turning the fallow(空闲的)land including, in some cases, rain forest in places such as Brazil into farmland, which in turn gives off lots of carbon dioxide(CO2)into the air. Finally, over many years, the energy benefit from burning ethanol would make up for the forest loss. But by then, climate change would have progressed(发展)so far that it might not help.You cannot really declare any practice “sustainable” until you have done a complete life-cycle analysis(分析)of its environmental costs. Even then, technology and public policy keep developing, and that development can lead to unforeseen and undesired results. The admirable goal of living sustainably requires plenty of thought on an ongoing basis.21. What might directly cause the loss of the forest according to the text?A. The growing demand for energy to make ethanol.B. The increasing carbon dioxide in the air.C. The greater need for farmland.D. The big change in weather.22. The underline word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “_” .A. the energy benefit B. the forest lossC. climate change D. burning ethanol23. The author thinks that replacing gas with corn ethanol is _.A. impractical B. acceptable C. admirable D. useless24. What does the author mainly discuss in the text?A. Technology. B. Sustainability. C. Ethanol energy. D. Environmental protection.BAfter years of hearing drivers complain about scratches (划痕) on their cars, Japans Nissan Motor Company has officially announced the next big thinga paint that not only resists scratches and scrapes, but actually repairs itself within a few days.The new material, developed by Nippon Paint Company, contains an elastic rubbery-like resin (弹性树脂) that is able to heal minor (较小的) marks caused by car wash equipment, parking lot encounters, road debris (石头碎片) or even on-purpose destruction.The automaker admits its results vary depending on the temperature and the depth of the damage, but adds this is the only paint like it in the world, and tests prove it works.Minor scratches, the most common type, are said to slowly fade over about a week. And once theyre gone, there is no trace (痕迹) that they were ever there.The special paint is said to last for at least three years after it is first applied, but there is no word yet on whether more can be added after that period.Nissan claims car washes are the worst offenders for this type of damage, accounting for at least 80 percent of all incidents.But the complete auto-healing wont come without scratching your wallet. The vehicle maker notes the special paint adds about $100 US to the price of a car.It plans to use its new chemical mixture only on its X-Trail SUVs in Japan for now, as it looks for a more widespread presentation. And while plans to offer the feature overseas havent been made yet, if its a hit there, you can be almost sure market forces will drive it to these shores, as well.25From the article, we can find that _.A. the paint has already been used on cars by nowB. it beats other products of its kind in its lengthy effectC. car damage is mainly caused by scratches and scrapesD. marketing this paint in Europe is not under way26The paint used on cars can _.A. last 3 years before it is re-applied againB. fade easily only in a few days timeC. help to protect cars from minor paint damageD. reduce car scrape incidents to 20 percent27What does the underlined part refer to?A. certain models of NissanB. name for one kind of paintC. somewhere in JapanD. a word standing for a car-dealer store28What can be inferred from the article?A. The paint was developed by Nissan Motor Company.B. The paint might work differently in summer and in winter.C. The mark could disappear as soon as the paint is applied.D. The paint is very popular in Japan and Europe.CI have a friend who lives by a three-word philosophy (人生哲学): Seize the moment. Just possibly, she may be the wisest woman on this planet. Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they havent thought about it, dont have it on their schedule, dont know it is coming or are too strict to depart from their routine.I cant count the times I called my sister and said, “How about going to lunch in half an hour?” She would gasp and stammer (结结巴巴地说), “I cant. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known it yesterday, I had a late breakfast, and it looks like rain.” And my personal favorite response: “Its just Monday.” She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. From then on, Ive tried to be a little more flexible.Life has a way of going faster as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises made to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we awaken, and all have to show for our lives is repetition of “Im going to” , “I plan on” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”When anyone calls my “seize the moment” friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for five minutes, and youre ready to trade your bad feet for a pair of Rollerblades and skip an elevator for a bungee cord.My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years . I love ice cream. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happily.Now . go on and have a nice day. Do something you WANT to not something on your SHOULD DO list.29The example of the writers sister serves as _.A. an argument B. an introduction C. a support D. a conclusion30The writer thinks that the excuse “Its just Monday.” is acceptable, because _.A. it is still likely that they can have lunch together some time laterB. it sounds most reasonable of all the excusesC. it shows respect for the writers suggestionD. it indicates the time when they can have lunch together31The underlined word “contagious” in the fourth paragraph means “_” .A. appropriateB. influentialC. practicalD. evident32What is the purpose of the writer by writing this passage?A. To suggest how time flies in our life.B. To persuade busy people to relax after work.C. To advise people to keep their promise to ourselves.D. To persuade readers to be flexible on their schedule for practical joy.DThe past week was possibly the most eventful in the history of customer technology markets, or to be precise, the 7-inch (17.8-cm) tablet (平板电脑)market. Never before have three of the biggest players in the industry scheduled what could be truly historic product launches (上市)so close together.Despite its name, the 7.9-inch iPad Mini is one of the largest among the mini-tablets. Its got all the aesthetics of its earlier 9.7-inch iPad and is unbelievably thin-just 7.2 mm, 23 percent thinner than the iPad. Apples iPad MiniRelease date: Nov 2,2012 (Wi-Fi version) Operating system: iOS 6 Size: 19.9 x 13.5 x 0.7 cmPrices: $329 (16GB Wi-Fi), $429 (32GB Wi-Fi), $519 (64GB Wi-Fi), or $459 (16GB Data) $559 (32GB Data), $659 (64GB Data)Google may have been forced to cancel its Android event in New York City on Oct 29 due to the threat of hurricane Sandy, but that isnt stopping it from making same big announcements. For starters, Google has confirmed (证实)that the Nexus 10 will be running Android 4.2 out of the box, so get excited. It will also come equipped with a 10-inch display running at an impressive 2560x1600 resolution. On the inside, itll have a A15 dual-core (双核)processor running alongside 2GB of RAM (内存),so expect the Nexus 10 to be a speedy little tablet. Googles Nexus 10 Release date: Nov 13,2012 Operating system: Android 4.2 Jelly Bean Size: 26.4 x 17.8x0.9 cm Prices: $399 (16GB), $449 (32GB)Microsofts Surface is a bold product with some great touches. It doesnt feature a camera and focuses on Office software, which suggests Microsoft is focusing this product on an executive toy. Theres no 3G connection (only Wi-Fi) so owners wont have to worry about an extra contract.The real delight, however, is Metro, the impressive navigation interface (导航界面).It is beautifully designed with brightly colored squares for navigation. Pre-orders for Surface in the US sold out over the weekend, so it would seem customers are excited. Microsofts Surface Release date: Oct 26,2012 Operating system: Windows 8 RT Size: 27.5 x 17.2 x 0.9 cm Prices: $499 (32GB M-Fi)33.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A.

Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. _37_ . If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly._38_. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. _39_ . A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue._40_. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.A. On the other hand, black is depressing.B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as grow up - we are born with our preference.C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.G. Colours do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节:完型填空(共20小题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)During a recent holiday I visited Dusseldorf, a city in the former West Germany.
