humans far away and fly straight to their unprotected skin. regrettably, mosquitoes can do more than cause an itchy(发痒的)wound. some mosquitoes spread several serious diseases, including dengue, yellow fever and malaria.over one million people worldwide die from these diseases each year. new research now shows how mosquitoes choose who to bite.mosquitoes need blood to survive. they are attracted to human skin and breath. they smell the carbon dioxide gas, which all mammals breathe out. this gas is the main way for mosquitoes to know that a warm-blooded creature is nearby.but mosquitoes also use their eyes and sense of touch. michael dickinson is a professor at the california institute of technology. his research shows how these small insects, with even smaller brains, use three senses to find a blood meal.michael dickinsons team used plumesa material that rises into the air of carbon dioxide gas into a wind tunnel. they then used cameras to record the mosquitoes. the insects followed the plume.then, the scientists placed dark objects on the lighter colored floor and walls of the tunnel. mr dickinson said, at first, the mosquitoes showed no interest in the objects at all.“what was quite striking and quite surprising is that the mosquitoes fly back and forth for hours. these are hungry females and they completely ignore the objects on the floor and wall of the tunnel. but the moment they get a hit of co2, they change their behavior quite obviously and now would become attracted to these little visual blobs (斑点).” this suggested to the researchers that a mosquitos sense of smell is more important in the search for food. once mosquitoes catch a smell of a human or animal, they also follow visual signals.8. what do mosquitoes mainly use to find their targets?a. sense of smell.b. sense of touch.c. sense of sight.d. smart brains.9. the first response of the mosquitoes to the objects in the experimentis.a. to fly to the dark onesb. to catch and stick to themc. to take no notice of themd. to attach themselves to them10. how can we avoid being attacked by mosquitoes according to the text ?a. dont let them see us.b. use dark objects to stop them.c. make them fly back and forth for hours.d. attract them to objects full of carbon dioxide gas.11. what can be the best title for the text?a. how do mosquitoes survive?b. why do mosquitoes need blood?c. how do mosquitoes choose to bite you?d. why do mosquitoes attack the human being? d so much to do, so little time. so much information, so little time to read it. in this age there is more information than ever before. there is not enough time to read everything we want to read. however, you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading. the first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it. dont say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. this is the first and most important step in speed-reading. the next step is technique. as with any other skill, speed-reading requires technique. you should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal (水平的) surface such as a table or a desk. next, you should be able to see the entire page. this is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words. lastly, you should be focused. it is hard to read with a lot of noise. find a quiet place to read. this will help your understanding of the text. you need something to guide your eyes while reading. you should use your finger. move your finger smoothly across the page. keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your finger as a guide. this will increase your speed. the third step is practice. practice makes perfect. read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what you are reading.12. from the first paragraph, we know that _.a. there is more limited information than ever beforeb. conditions ask people to use less time to know more information c. people can read what they liked. the less you read, the more time you will spend13. which of the following shows the right time order for speed-reading according to the passage?a. ask for more technique.b. look at many words and recognize them.c. practise more.a. c, a, bb. c, b, ac. b, a, cd. a, c, b14. the underlined part “you should be focused” in the third paragraph means that .a. a person should devote all his attention to readingb. your feelings will be hurt while readingc. a person should forget his difficulties while readingd. you should pay attention to your faults while reading15. to speed up your reading, you could .a. use something to guide your eyesb. say every word out loudc. know it is necessary to read quicklyd. underline some important words while reading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。it is generally believed that money cant buy happiness. however, that may not be always true. according to a recent article, in the last few years, new research has given us a far deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel. broadly speaking, people with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by. but it also shows you need to spend wisely if you expect those bank notes to put a smile on your face. 16 1. buy experiences, not material goods.in a recently published study, professor ryan at san francisco state university in the us, found that when people dont have much money to spare, they tend to stick to material goods. 17 but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value.2. 18 no matter how much money you spend on something and how special that product is, you will get used to having it over time and lose interest in it. with the same money you spend on one big object, you can buy many little things. buying small things means you can get frequent small pleasures.3. be sure to buy time. 19 for example, that big house in the suburbs may seem like a good idea, but a 2014 study by researchers from university of zurich in switzerland found that people with longer time on the way reported lower life satisfaction, all other things being equal.4. try giving it away.elizabeth dunn, professor at the university of british columbia in canada, found that in nations as diverse as canada, south africa and uganda, giving away money consistently made people happier. 20 a.be sure to buy what you like.b.here are some ways to better spend your money.c.buy lots of little things, rather than one big thing.d.there are a lot of reasons someone might buy something.e.people think experiences only provide temporary happiness.f.this was even true when people giving away were relatively poor.g.consider how the things you buy will affect how you spend your time.第二部分 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)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。i quit my office job in
