even if it would, is it the best solution? despite what it promises, gm technology actually has not increased the production potential of any crop. in fact, studies show that the most widely grown gm crop, gm soybeans, has suffered reduced productivity. for instance, a report that analyzed nearly two decades of research on major gm food crops shows that gm engineering has failed to significantly increase us crop production. something else, however, has been on the rise. while gm seeds are expensive, gm companies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides(杀虫剂). on the contrary, us government data show that gm crops in the us have produced an overall increase in pesticide use compared to traditional crops. “the promise was that you could use fewer chemicals and boost production. but neither is true, ”said bill christison, president of the us national farm coalition. at the same time, the authors of the book world hunger: twelve myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution （分配）and politics. these indeed deserve our efforts and money. meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a 2008 world bank report. as a matter of fact, scientists see better ways to feed the world. another world bank report concluded that gm crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are available, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice. 28. the author develops the second paragraph mainly _ . a. by classification分类b. by comparisonc. by example d. by process29. what does the underlined word “boost” in the third paragraph probably mean? a. control. b. evaluate. c. obtain. d. increase. 30. gm companies promise farmers that they will benefit from _ . a. practicing “green” farmingb. use of fewer chemicalsc. fair distribution of their cropsd. using more crops for fuel31. which of the following best describes the attitude of the author towards gm technology? a. optimistic. b. approving c. disapproving. d. indifferent. dmost of us spend our lives seeking the natural world. we go fishing, sit in the garden, have a picnic, live in the suburbs or go to the seaside. the most popular leisure activity in britain is going for a walk. when joggers jog, they dont run on the streets. they tend to go to the park or the river. but despite this, our children are growing up nature deprived(剥夺). i spent my boyhood climbing trees. these days, children are robbed of these ancient freedom, due to problems like crime, traffic, the loss of the open spaces and strange new ideas about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found. the truth is to be found elsewhere. a study in the us: families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for adhdattention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(注意力缺陷多动障碍). those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%. adhd is one of the great problems of modern childhood. one study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to adhd children. however, we spend money on drugs rather than on green places. the life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature. the increasing concern for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years. and study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality. even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world. we need the wild world. it is essential to our well-being, our health and our happiness. 32. according to the author, people enjoy _ to seek nature. a. jogging on the streetb. sitting in the gardenc. shopping in the supermarketd. running in the gym33. from the second paragraph we can see that _ . a. things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found. b. climbing trees will certainly do good to the childrenc. children probably spend less time in nature nowadaysd. children tend to be happier as a result of their material satisfaction34. in what way do people benefit from their contact with nature? a. children with adhd can be cured. b. a garden nearby improves the quality of old peoples life. c. problems with crime and violent behavior will easily be solved. d. childrens performance at school is greatly improved. 35. what is the main idea of this passage? a. access to nature improves our life. b. nature treats children with adhd. c. getting close to nature reduces crime. d. man cant live without natural areas. 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。36you probably think you will never be a top student. this is not necessarily so. however, anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. here is how: plan your time carefully. when planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. after making this list you should make a schedule of your time. first your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. . then decide a good, regular time for studying. 37a weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time. find a good place to study. look around the house for a good study area. keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. no games, radios, or television. when you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject. make good use of your time in class. 38listening carefully in class means less work later. taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says. study regularly. when you get home from school, go over your notes, preview the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material. 39if you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and youll remember it longer. develop a good attitude towards tests. the purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. they help you remember your new knowledge. the world wont end if you dont pass a test, so dont be over worried. 40you will probably discover many others after you have tried these. a. there are other methods that might help you with your studying. b. dont forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. c. take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. d. no one can become a top student unless he or she works hard. e. maybe you are an average student. f. make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class. g. this will help you understand the next class. 第ii卷第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） another persons enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success i have achieved. that person was my stepmother.i was nine years old when she entered our home in rural virginia. my father_41_me to her with these words:“i would like you to meet the fellow who is_42_for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no _43_ than tomorrow morning.”my stepmother walked over to me, _44_my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye. then she looked at my father and replied,“you are _45_ .this is not the worst boy at all, _46_ the smartest one who hasnt yet found an outlet（释放的途径）for his enthusiasm.”that statement began a(n) _47_ between us. no one had ever called me smart. my family and neighbors had built me up in my _48_as a bad boy . my stepmother changed all that.she changed many things. she _49_ my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. she moved our family into the county seat, where my fathers career could be more _50_and my brother and i could be better_51_ . when i turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand_52_ and told me that she b
