a. by straightening rivers and deepening the beds. b. by reducing flooding and building deep reservoirs.c. by channelizing rivers and the constructing dams.d. by making land for agriculture and protecting the environment.25. whats the main idea of the last paragraph? a. the benefits of building dams. b. negative effects of dams on environmental changes. c. the influence on rivers. d. earthquakes brought about by deep reservoirs.26. which of the following can be the best title of the passage? a. river control b. river channelizationc. environmental effects d. dam constructioncwhen i was a young girl living in ireland, i was always pleased when it rained, because that meant i could go treasure hunting. as all of ireland knows, treasure is hidden at the end of the rainbow. if you can discover the end of the rainbow, gold will be brought to you. so whenever it rained, i would look up in the sky and follow the curve of the rainbow to see where it ended. i never did unearth any treasure.as i got older, and started working, rainy days came to be just another hateful thing and my childhood dreams of finding treasure faded. but for a fortunate few, the dream even comes true! such is the case of mel fisher. his dream of finding treasure also began in childhood, while reading the great literature classics “treasure island” and “moby dick”. however, unlike me, he chased his dream and eventually managed to become one of the most famous professional treasure hunters of all time, and for good reason. in 1985, he fished up the priceless goods of the sunken spanish ship atocha, which brought him an unbelievable $400 million dollars!after the ship sank in 1622 off the coast of florida, fisher, who ran a commercial rescue operation, was trying to locate the underwater treasure for over 16 years when he finally hit the jackpot! but finding and keeping the treasure wasnt all plain sailing. after battling with terrible conditions at sea, fisher then had to battle in the courts. in fact, the state of florida took fisher to court over ownership of the find. after more than 200 hearings, fisher agreed to donate 20% of his yearly findings for public display, and so now there is a museum in florida which displays hundreds of the objects which were saved from the atocha.archaeologists(考古学家) object to the fact that with commercial rescue operations like fishers, the objects are sold and dispersed and unesco are worried about protecting our underwater treasure from what it describes as “robbery”. the counter-argument is that in professional, well-run operations such as fishers, each piece is accurately and minutely recorded and that it is this information which is more important than the actual object, and that such operations help increase our wealth of archaeological knowledge. indeed, as in fishers case, they make history more accessible to people through museum donations and information on websites.27. in para.3, the underlined phrase “hit the jackpot” means according to the text.a. discovered the jackpot b. ran a rescue operationc. broke one of the objects d. found the treasure28. it can be concluded from paragraph 4 and 5 that .a. unescos view is different from archaeologists b. people hold different views on the issue c. all rescue operations should be forbiddend. attention should be paid to the finds educational value29. which of the following is true according to the passage? a. fisher achieved his dream effortlessly. b. fisher was accused of ownership of the treasure. c. fisher was willing to donate his findings to the museum. d. fisher found the underwater treasure shortly after the ship sank. 30. the authors purpose of writing the text is most likely to .a. persuadeb. entertain c. informd. describe 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的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。 boxing is a popular sport that many people seem to be fascinated by. newspapers, magazines and sports programmes on tv frequently cover boxing matches. 31 it seems to me that some people, especially men, find it appealing because it is an aggressive sport. when they watch a boxing match, they can identify with the winning boxer, and this gives them the feeling of being a winner themselves. it is a fact that many people have feelings of aggression from time to time, but they cannot show their aggression in their everyday lives. 32 however, there is a negative side to boxing. 33 although boxers wear gloves during the fights, and amateur boxers even have to wear helmets, there have frequently been accidents in both professional and amateur boxing, sometimes with dramatic consequences. boxers have suffered from head injuries, and occasionally, fighters have even been killed as a result of being knocked out in the ring(拳击台). 34 sometimes even if a boxer has never been knocked out, he might have suffered severe brain damage without knowing it. 35 i think it would be better if less time was given to aggressive sports on tv, and we welcomed more men and women from non-aggressive sports as our heroes and heroines in our society. i believe that the world is aggressive enough already! of course, people like competitive sports, and so do i, but i think that hitting other people in an aggressive way is not something that should be regarded as a sport.a. it can be a very dangerous sport.b. watching a boxing match gives them an outlet for this aggression.c. in my personal opinion, boxing can be so thrilling that many people dare not have a try.d. i am personally not at all in favor of aggressive sports like boxing.e. furthermore, studies have shown that there are often long-term effects of boxing.f. professional boxers earn a lot of money, and successful boxers are treated as big heroes.g. it is likely to threaten personal safety of people.第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节： 完形填空（共20题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。my mum has a unique way of embarrassing her children. whenever she gets 36 about something, she jumps up and down, waving her arms in the air and screaming in excitement. we find this 37 embarrassing and call it the “silly dance”. 38 she does it, my siblings and i will inch slowly away, smile awkwardly, and 39 to people, “no, shes not my mum.”even though my mum 40 me to no end when i was a child, and even though she 41 does the silly dance, i now 42 it. the silly dance shows that shes 43 and who she is. 44 she didnt do her dance and just obeyed our 45 of “not in public, mom,” she would be compromising who she is.i 46 a lot of my love for the theatre to my mum. when i sing just like my mum does, my friends are always doing that same 47 smile and whispering under their breath, “carolyn, 48 .”so in many ways im becoming my mum. and im not going to 49 singing publicly just because people feel embarrassed by itthats not who i am. 50 i will mortify(蒙羞) my own children with my so-called “silly dance.” so what?
