close friend who coached another team，_36_ about the age of some of his gymnasts to increase their chances of winning.She knew her kids would _37_ that Bills athletes were in the wrong age division and would be _38_，but she didnt know what to do.She didnt want to _39_ Bill as a friend and was afraid that blowing the whistle would ruin her _40_ in the closeknit gymnastics community.Lets start by recognizing that ethical problems _41_ in two forms.Some are problems of discernment(洞察力)，where its difficult to _42_ whats right.Others are problems of discipline，where its _43_ what should be done but doing so is difficult.Gwens problem fell into the discipline category.Bills action was clearly wrong，and she had a responsibility to _44_ it.She couldnt let her kids _45_ by looking the other way just because it was _46_ to stand up for whats right.As Edmund Burke _47_ it，“All that is necessary for evil to triumph(胜利) is for good people to do nothing.”Gwen could confront Bill to give him a chance to _48_ the problem.If he didnt，she had to _49_ him.Yes，this would _50_ destroy their friendship，but the _51_ in their values had already made that inevitable.It was also likely that some colleagues would take Bills _52_.There will always be a split between those who _53_ and those who dont.Still，if Gwen was a coach，she was a teacher.Her problem was a great _54_ in disguise.Doing the right thing when its personally _55_ is the best possible way to teach moral courage.36A.knew Blied Casked Dquestioned37A.recognize Bhope Crefuse Dagree38A.pleased Bamazed Cupset Dinterested39A.treat

fuel is derived from rotting refuse that San Francisco and Oakland residents and businesses have been discarding in the Altamont landfill since 1980.Since November，the methane gas created from the 240acre landfill has been sucked into tubes and sent into an innovative facility that purifies and transforms it into liquefied(液态的) natural gas (LNG)Almost 500 Waste Management Inc.garbage and recycling trucks run on this new source of environmentally friendly fuel instead of dirty diesel(柴油)“Weve built the largest landfilltoLNG plant in the world；this plant produces 13，000 gallons of LNG a day，” says Jessica Jones，a landfill manager for Houstonbased Waste Management.“It will take 30，000 tons of CO2 a year from the environment.”Altamont is one of two California landfills making LNG；the other is a smaller facility about 40 miles south of Los Angeles.Other natural gas facilities are being planned by Waste Management at some of the 270 active landfills nationwide，and the number could grow quickly as communities seek to reduce greenhouse gas pollution.Landfills have plenty of the ingredients to produce methane.Bacteria break down the food scraps，paper，lawn trimmings and other organic waste dumped there.Over time，the material ferments(发酵)，releasing methane and other gases.About 50 percent of the gas emitted from landfills is methane.It is 21 times more effective than CO2 at trapping heat in the atmosphere，the EPA says.“Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide，” Tom Frankiewicz，program manager for EPAs Landfill Methane Outreach Program in Washington，says in an email.“Methane is also the main component of natural gas，so by capturing and using methane as an energy source you will get an even bigger bang_for_the_buck.”56What would be the best title for the passage？AA new way to deal with garbage in CaliforniaBThe advantage of liquefied natural gasCThe fuel of California garbage trucks coming from garbageDEnvironmentally friendly trucks in California57Which of the following is NOT a step to turn garbage into LNG？AMix the methane gas with other natural gases.BBacteria break down the garbage.CThe material ferments.DSuck the methane gas into tubes and purify it.58Methane is a kind of gas that _.Ausually exists in landfillsBcan add to greenhouse effectCcant be turned into a useful energy sourceDis not as effective as CO2 at trapping heat in the atmosphere59The underlined part “bang for the buck” in the last paragraph probably means _.Aproblem BshareCreward DvictoryBBusy senior managers need no longer waste time in showering themselvesan Australian company has invented a suit that can be worn while they wash.The suit has been specially designed so that it can be cleaned under the showerhead.There is no need for soaking (浸泡)，dry cleaningor even soap.The Japanese market has taken a liking to the “shower suit”，described as “revolutionary” by its owner Australian Wool Innovation (AWI)，which is the research and marketing body that represents Australian woolgrowers.Orders have been placed for 170，000 of the woolen suits.“The suit could be worn in the shower，although it was probably better to hang it on a clothes hanger and carry it instead，”AWI corporate affairs spokesman Stephen Feighan said.“The idea is that you hang it up and then.you give it a spray (喷雾)，and its dry the next morning，” Mr.Feighan said.A Japanese researcher working for AWI invented the suit by combining three technologies.The secret is the best lining (内衬)，which allows the suit to dry quickly.“The shower suit attracted busy corporate people，particularly those who often traveled or stayed up late，”Mr.Feighan said.The airline industry was also interested.Mr.Feighan confessed he had not worn one of the suits yet，or tried to wash it in the shower，because they were cut to fit Japanese figures.AWI believes that the shower suit will spread from the Japanese market through Europe and India.Mr.Feighan hoped the suit，made from local wool，would be available in Australia in 12 to 18 months time.60What is the writing purpose of the article？ATo introduce a newlydesigned shower suit.BTo help the white collars arrange their life more sensibly.CTo provide suggestions on saving time in bath.DTo praise AWI for its important achievement.61Which is TRUE about the suit according to the passage？AIt can spare the owners trouble of soaking，dry cleaning and applying soap.BIt is of the quality of fast dry for its best cloth.CIt is not suitable for hanging.DIt has attracted more orders than any other suit.62The suit draws the attention from all the following groups EXCEPT _.Acorporate people who are always on the goBpeople on occasional business tripsCthe airline industryDpeople burning the midnight oil63Which of the following has much to do with Mr.Feighan？AThe invention of the suit.BThe tryon of the suit.CThe combination of the three technologies on the suit.DThe popularization of the suit and best wishes for it.CJane Austen (17751817)，one of Englands most famous novelists，was never publicly recognized as a writer during her lifetime.Jane Austen was born in Steventon，Hampshire and the second daughter and seventh child in a family of eight.She was mainly educated at home，benefiting from her fathers library.Her closest friend was her only sister，Cassandra.Though Austen lived a quiet life，she had unusual access to the greater world，mainly through her brothers，Francis and Charles，officers in the Royal Navy，who served on ships around the world and saw action in the Napoleonic Wars.As a child Austen began writing comic stories，now referred to as the juvenilia(少年时代作品)Her first mature work，written when she was about 19，was a novella(中篇小说)，Lady Susan，written in epistolary(书信体的) form.This early fiction was preserved by her family but wasnt published until long after her death.In her early twenties Austen wrote the novels Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice，one of her bestknown novels，which was finished in 1797.When Austen was 25 years old，her father retired，and she and Cassandra moved with their parents to Bath.During the five years she lived in Bath，Austen began one novel，The Watsons，which she never completed.In 1811，Austen published Sense and Sensibility，which identified the author as “a Lady”Pride and Prejudice followed in 1813，Mansfield Park in 1814，and Emma in 1815.For some reason，all of them were published not using her name.Austen began writing the novel that would be called Persuasion in 1815 and finished it the following year，by which time，however，her health was beginning to fail.Austen died on July 18，1817 because of her illness and a few days later she was buried in Winchester Cathedral.64How did Jane Austen get her education when she was young？AShe studied at home in her fathers library.BShe was taught by her two brothers.CShe studied in a private school.DShe was taught by her sister.65All the following were completed by Jane Austen EXCEPT _.ALady Susan. BPersuasion.CThe Watsons. DEmma.66We can learn from the last paragraph that _.Athe Austens moved to Bath for the benefit of Janes healthBJane Austen felt upset because her novels werent recognizedCSense and Sensibility was published using the name of Jane AustenDPride and Prejudice was published sixteen years after it was completed67What would be the best title for the passage？AJane Austens Early LifeBJane Austens Great WorksCWay to Success for Jane AustenDA Brief Introduction to Jane AustenDThere are many challenges students face when learning to use a dictionary.All of these problems，and more，can be resolved by effective training.Finding the right entry(词条)The first challenge is find the word in the dictionary.For many words this is quite straightforward，but for others it is a frustratingly complex task.Often the form of the word that the student wants to look up may not appear in the dictionary where they expect it.For example，walked，or incomprehensible may be found under the headwords walk and comprehend.Many students would instantly recognize that walked would appear under the entry walk，but may not know that incomprehensible might appear under comprehend.This is particularly difficult when the meaning is figurative or idiomatic.Finding the right meaningMany words have several meanings such as bank or duty.Research strongly suggests that once the word form has been found many students usually only select the first of several meanings as the correct answer，and ignore the rest.However，if the meaning senses are very different，as with the several meanings of bank，then the students will find the correct entry quite easily，but if the meaning senses are quite similar，or are nuances of the same broad meaning，then finding the right nuance can be very difficult.Making sense of the entryDictionaries contain a lot of information such as grammatical and phonological information，which can be offputting because they can seem like yet another foreign language to learn.Moreover，there may not be enough information in the entry to help the students find what they want as there is not enough space to put all the information about a word in a dictionary.This can lead to frustrations on the part of the student.The grammatical information in the dictionary may help a student to use the word，for example，by saying that the word requires a direct object，but the student does not always know which direct object goes with it.Fortunately，this information can often be found in the Oxford Word finder.68On the whole，the passage mainly tells us _.Athe ways students use a dictionaryBthe challenges students face when using a
