But, as we cant drink sea water, how can it be important? Every part of our seas and oceans contains an amazing number of animals and fish that live at different ocean depths. Most of the different species of animals and fish depend on simple plants for their food. These simple plants called algae (海藻) drift near the surface of the ocean and use sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into food and oxygen. In fact, algae produces over half of the oxygen people breathe. How important sea water is! Each plant or animal in our seas and oceans is an important link in a food chain. The algae are eaten in large amounts by microscopic animals, which are in turn consumed by larger animals. These food chains are delicately balanced. The bad news about the food chains in the oceans is that they are under threat because of man. People once thought that the oceans were so big that it didnt matter if we dumped rubbish into them or caught huge quantities of fish and whales for food. But we now know this is not true and fish stocks in the oceans have started to drop. Thankfully, the world is taking steps to protect the future of our oceans by introducing international agreements to protect marine habitats. Most countries have introduced fishing restrictions to protect fish stocks in the oceans and new techniques are being pioneered to cope with pollution. Finally, the importance of protecting oceans is being made known to more people. This is just the beginning of a long process to protect the oceans for our future. We depend on the oceans for fish which are an important part of the human diet. How important sea water is! 24. People used to think that the rubbish thrown into the sea _.

How to Protect Food Chains.D. How to Deal with Seawater Pollution.CFailure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical (按字母的)order, never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the days work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I canthen let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica( 大英百科全书), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relived, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe, must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.28. People with start-up fatigue are most likely to .A. work hard B. delay tasks C. seek help D. accept failure29.What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A. Writing essays in strict order. B. Building up physical strength.C. Leaving out the toughest ideas. D. Dealing with the hardest task first30. According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us .A. find the right solution B. get some nice sleepC. gain complete relief D. ignore mental problems31. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Success Is Built upon Failure B. How to Handle Performance FatigueC. Getting over Fatigue: A Way to Success D. Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems DMAY 14 marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the state of Israel. Many Israelis, however, are not in the mood to celebrate. Looking at the damage to her neighbors home from a Palestinian rocket, Batia Katar, a 17-year-old Israeli girl, was in tears. We cant celebrate (Israels) independence when things like this are happening, she said. What is clear is that Israel is not a normal country. The country has a dramatic (戏剧性) history and ancient culture but has only officially existed for 60 years. Within hours after it was established in 1948, Israel was at war with its Arab neighbors for land. It won that time, and in 1956, 1967 and 1973, acquiring the West Bank, the Golan Heights, Gaza and east Jerusalem For good or ill, Israelis can take pride in victories with so many countries. However, it occupied much more land than the United Nations agreed, which left local Palestinians homeless. Different from all its neighbors in religion, Israel is also far more successful economically than its neighbors. It gets a great amount of support from America and other Western countries. The country is now a world leader in many industries, such as IT and modern agriculture. However, conflict exists, just like 60 years ago. And the signal of peace is as weak as ever. Palestinian militants (武装人员) have fired more than 7 000 missiles from Gaza, mainly at Sedro, killing 13 people. In the same period hundreds of Palestinian civilians in Gaza have died in Israeli military action. In order to create peace, the world community hopes both sides accept and follow the Middle East peace plan. Optimists believe through Israeli-Palestinian negotiations there will finally be peace. Both Israelis and Palestinians want to live in peace without explosions that remind them that they are living in a special but dangerous place. 32. Why are many Israelis not in the mood to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the state of Israel? Because _. A. the government didnt organize it B. they are too busy to attend it C. it is dangerous to celebrate it D. conflicts and fights still exist 33. The underlined word established in the third paragraph means _.A. defeated B. founded C. attacked D. accepted 34. Israel is not a normal country because _. A. the country has a dramatic history and ancient culture but has only officially existed for 60 years B. within hours after its establishment, Israel was at war with its Arab neighbors for land C. it occupied much more land than the UN agreed, which left local Palestinians homeless D. all of the above 35. Which statement about Israel is NOT true according to the passage? A. It became a country in 1948. B. It is different from all its neighbors in religion. C. It is now a world leader in many industries, such as IT and modern agriculture. D. No country has supported it since it was founded. 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。 Every person wants to achieve the goals set at the beginning of a new school year. The following are some ways to help you achieve your goals. _36_When it comes to choosing your goal, ensure that it states precisely what it is that you want to achieve. Dont generalize. Your goal should involve both what you want to achieve and the effort that you will put in to achieve it. _37_Having a copy of your goal makes it real. You can write you goal in a journal youll be keeping all year, or you can write it on a poster and stick it on your desk so that you can look at it each day. Every time you remind yourself of your goal, youre training your brain to accept the effort needed to make the goal happen. Try various methods. One may not work while another may be just right for you. _38_Some people learn best through writing, some through listening and reading, and some through talking it through. Once you realize which way works for you, you can work better and achieve your goal easily. Think positive. _39_Negative thoughts are unhelpful and they became roadblocks. Stop telling yourself you cant and start telling yourself you can, and talk about you are doing rather than hoping you can do something. Always believe that youre capable, even if you have difficulty along the way. Reward yourself along the way. _40_Occasionally, when youve achieved certain “milestones” in your goal plan, take a break and reward yourself.

The order in which they 62 (finish) would decide the order of their appearance in the Chinese calendar. All the animals lined up on the river bank and were given the task of getting to the opposite shore. The cat wondered 63 he would get across as he was afraid of water. The ox was 64 (worry) how he would cross with his poor eyesight. The calculating rat suggested that he and the cat jump onto the oxs back and guide him across. The ox, steady and hard-working, did not notice the two animals on his back.65 the meanwhile, the
