driving.yet scores of studies suggest that real multitaskersthose who can_36_out multiple tasks equally well，make up just 2 percent of the population.more surprisingly，the socalled “supertaskers”_37_have differently structured brains to the other 98 percent.the brain areas that make supertaskers_38_from the rest of the population are the same parts that are most different between_39_and nonhuman primates，according to david strayer，director of the applied cognition lab at the university of utah.scientists are_40_of the reason why some brains are different.in fact，we

comprehension (30 marks)directions：read the following three passages.each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.for each of them there are four choices marked a，b，c and dchoose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.apeople used to think that wetlands were wasted land.developers would drain them with ditches，fill them in with tons of soil，and build houses，schools，and parking areas on them.then scientists began to realize the important role wetlands played in the environment.wetlands act like giant sponges during storms.they soak up extra storm water and afterward release it slowly back into the water cycle.this helps prevent flooding.towns where people have drained wetlands have found that in a big storm，their streets and homes are often flooded because there are no wetlands to soak up the excess water.wetlands also act as giant filters where pollutants are absorbed and dissolved over time.though wetlands can become polluted from dumping，wastewater，and fertilizer runoff from farm fields，they are able to process some pollutants over time because of all the microorganisms and plants living there.wetlands are especially important for providing homes and breeding grounds to millions of birds，fish，and amphibians worldwide.many wetlands have become national wildlife refuges，where you can go to take pictures and look at birds and animals.the everglades are a huge wetland that once covered more than four million acres of southern florida.sometimes called the “river of grass”，the everglades are a shallow sheet of water that slowly flowed across a grassy plain.in the late 1800s people began draining parts of the everglades for development.roads were built and towns sprang up.the everglades shrank to half its original size.cities like miami grew up where once there was a thriving wetland.sewage and waste from the cities were pumped into the remaining wetlands.over time scientists began to see the importance of the everglades.even with its smaller size，the everglades filtered the pollutants coming from the cities，absorbing the worst of it like a sewage treatment plant.during storms the everglades protected the cities from storm surge flooding.they also are just a great place to visit and see wildlife.56the first paragraph is intended to tell us_.awasted land used to be wetlandsbpeople didnt know the importance of wetlands beforecwetlands used to be left undisturbeddwetlands can be used for building57why can wetlands be compared to giant sponges?athey absorb extra water from storms.bthey become large or small in size.cthey absorb pollutants and dissolve them.dthey are made of soft soil.58as for the importance of wetlands，how many aspects are mentioned in the passage?atwo. bthree. cfour. dfive.59the example of the everglades is given in the last paragraph to show_.athe threat to wetlands bthe protection of wetlandscthe development of wetlandsdthe

ecosystemdwetlands are especially important to wildlifebyou know how wonderful you are，and you know that others know how wonderful you are，but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy？for most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.when this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do，but the good news is that there is.dont let jealousy spoil your relationships.tackle it head on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.it can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is，but if you want to save your friendship，youll have to do just that.dont approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally conceited)，just take some time alone with them and let them know that youve been feeling like theres been something coming between you.if they refuse to respond，then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.when you figure out what is annoying your friend，asking him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.if，for example，(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesnt get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite him or her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you.remember，though，that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise.dont limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.even the best of friendships can be tingled by jealousy.this destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.before taking extreme action，chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.if you cant，be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you wont.61according to the author，the jealousy emotion is _.anormal bproductivecdestructive dextreme62which of the following is not mentioned as a way to face your friend when jealousy happens?awalking up to him/her and asking him/her why he/she is jealous of you.bwalking up to him/her and

between you.63the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to “_”afriendship brelationshipcadmiration djealousy64what can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?atheres always a solution to the problem of jealousy.bjealousy can turn best friends into worst enemies.cyou may lose a friend to keep your own gifts，chances or self development.dyou should go a long way with your friend to work out a solution.65the purpose of the passage is _.ato explain what causes jealousybto offer some advice on making friendscto introduce the way to cope with a jealous frienddto explain how destructive the jealous emotion iscmany canadian students take part in science projects to learn about the world around them.marshall zhang,16，in grade 11 in richmond hill，ontario，earned first place in a national science competition this year.he discovered something amazing while doing research on a disease called cystic fibrosis(囊性纤维化)marshall used a supercomputer network called scinet.he had never used the network before，but quickly learned how to use it because he was already good at using computers.“marshall applied his interest and skills in computer graphics(电脑绘图)，which he developed while in grade 5 and 6，to solve problems presented by cystic fibrosis，”said tony legault，the toronto coordinator(协调者) for the sanofiaventis biotalent challenge science competition.he discovered on this computer program that two specific drugs were very effective in fixing the gene that causes cystic fibrosis.cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that causes thick，sticky mucus(黏液) to build in the lungs and parts of the digestive(消化的) system，causing difficult breathing.he had only one chance to test his theory on real cells in a lab，and it turned out that his computer research was right.marshall had emailed some chemistry professors looking to help out at a lab，but didnt get a great response.he said it was hard finding a lab that would let him do research since he was still in high school and did not have any experience.dr.christine bear gave him a chance to work in her lab and she became marshalls mentor(导师)dr.bear is a doctor at torontos hospital for sick children doing research on cystic fibrosis.she explained that using a computer and its lightningspeed processing can lead to discovering new types of drugs to help patients.she said that marshall could become a scientist in the future because he is very smart and has a lot of determination.she has invited marshall to come back to her lab during the summer to do more research on cystic fibrosis.66why did marshall get first place in the national science competition?ahe developed a new theory about network.bhe knew how to do research on the internet.che started a computer network on his own.dhe discovered two effective drugs for cystic fibrosis using computers.67marshall learned how to use scinet quickly because_.ahis teacher offered him some helpbhe was skilled at computersche had textbooks to refer todhe was a good computer programmer68from what tony legault said，we know that marshall zhang_.adeveloped his computer skills in primary schoolbfound it difficult to seek a cure for cystic fibrosiscfelt it easy to solve problems by computer graphicsdshowed an interest in medical science at a young age69why didnt many chemistry professors have marshall zhang work in their labs?ahis teachers had not recommended him.bthe chemistry professors were unfriendly.che was still young and had not conducted experiments before.dthe chemistry professors didnt know him.70which of the following words best describes dr.christine bear?ahonest. bdevoted.cdetermined. dgenerous.part writing (45 marks)section a (10 marks)directions：read the following passage.fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.write no more than three words for each answer.an apprenticeship is a form of onthejob training that combines workplace experience and classroom learning.it can last anywhere from one to six years，but four years is typical for most.an apprentice spends the majority of the time in a workplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journeymansomeone who has done the job for many years.the rest of the apprentices time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical skills the career requires.being an apprentice is a fulltime undertaking.one of the advantages of apprenticeship is that it does not cost apprentices anything.the companies that hire them pay for school.whats more，it offers apprentices an “earn while you learn” opportunity.they usually start out at half the pay of a journeyman，and the pay increases gradually as they move further along in the job and studies.near the end of the apprenticeship，their wages are usually 90 percent of what a journeyman would receive.apprenticeship also pays off for employers.it can offer employers a pool of welltrained workers to draw from.despite the advantages，apprentices are usually required to work during the day and attend classes at night，which leaves little time for anything else.sometimes，they might be laid off(下岗) if business for the employers is slow.once they have completed the apprenticeship and become journeymen，they receive a nationally recognized and portable certification and their pay also increases again.some journeymen continue employment with the companies they apprenticed with；others go on to different companies or become selfemployed contractors.title：section b (10 marks)directions：read the following passage.answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.so long as teachers fail to dist
