Many of them have surfaces of rock or clay or small stones. They are not flat, either. They often have high hills and deep valleys. There is some plants life in many parts of the desert. There is little rain in the desert, but it does fall often enough for most plants.The deserts of the world are not uninhabited(not lived by people). People also live outside oases(绿洲), but these people are not farmers. They have camels, goats, donkeys, sheep, etc. These animals can live on the desert plants and do not need much water.The people of the desert have to move constantly from place to place, they must always look for grass or desert plants for their animals. They usually live in tents. When there is no more food for their animals, they fold up their tents, pat them on their camels and donkeys, and move to another place. In good years, when there is enough food for their animals, they trade their skins and their goats and camel hairs with the people of oases for wheat and fruit. But in bad years, when there is not enough food for their animals, the people of the desert would attack the oases people. But they are also hospitable, no man in the desert would ever refuse to give a stranger food and water.56.

From the passage we know that life _.A. is hard in desertsB. is happy in desertsC. is impossible in desertsD. in deserts is much better nowB All of my childhood and early, adult life, my mom weighed over 220 pounds (one pound = 0.454 kilograms). I could feel the pain that my mom experienced with her fatness. I was never uncomfortable about my mother, but I think she was uncomfortable about herself, and that feeling was painful for all of us. And she began to lose weight. After more than twenty years of battling obesity（肥胖）, my mother completed a forceful eighteen-month diet that left her ninety pounds lighter than before. A new woman was born! At age twenty-eight, I got a new mom! For the first time, I met the woman my mother truly was, the beautiful little lady under the fatness. It wasnt so much her new body that was the surprise, but rather her new spirit. To celebrate her new size and to devote herself to dancing again, my mother joined a “Mrs. Forty-Plus” competition, where she would have to model, give a speech and provide a dance performance. She told our family that she did not care if she won she simply had always wanted to perform on stage. She told each one of us, “Im not doing it to win; Im doing it to dance!” The competition was exciting! I prayed(祈祷) that my mom would win, but while watching her on stage I was simply overjoyed just by her effort. To me, she had already won. She posed to perfection, her speech brought tears to everyones eyes, and her performance was wonderful. That night, at age fifty-three, my mother was crowned (为.加冕) “Mrs. Forty-Plus”. She was the first person in our family to ever win such a title.61. The first two paragraphs mainly show that the authors mom was _. A. experienced B. painful C. comfortable D. fat62. After the authors mom completed a forceful eighteen-month diet, she was about _.A. 85 kilograms B. 41 kilograms C. 130 pounds D. 90 pounds63. In order to join in the “Mrs. Forty-Plus” Competition, the authors mom has to dothe following EXCEPT _.A. providing a dance performance B. telling a funny story about herselfC. giving a speech to a large number of people D. wearing special clothes to show to people64. The underlined part in Paragraph 6 means that _.A. the authors mom succeeded in modeling and speakingB. the authors moms performance was very wonderfulC. the authors mom was not successful in modelingD. the authors mom succeeded in making a speech CWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Todays leading killers, such as heart diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory. In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on-in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones. It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic conditional human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.65. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _.A. diseases and aging B. accidents and warC. accidents and aging D. heart diseases and war66. In the authors opinion, todays most important advance in technology lies in _.A. medicine B. the internet C. brain cells D. human organs67. Humans may live longer in the future because _.A. heart disease will be far away from usB. human brains can decide the final deathC. the basic materials of cells will last foreverD. human organs can be repaired by new medicine DSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression(沮丧) to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting (转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support money aid, material resources, and needed services - that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.68. Interpersonal relationships are important because they can _A. make people live more easilyB. smooth away daily problemsC. deal with life changesD. cure types of illnesses69. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word cushions?A. takes place of B. makes up ofC. lessens the effect of D. gets rid of70. What is the subject discussed in the text?A. Interpersonal relationships.B. Kinds of social support.C. Ways to deal with stress.D. Effects of stressful condition. 第二卷（非选择题，共45分）第四部分：写作（共三节，满分45分）单词拼写（10分，每词一分）根据首字母提示或句意拼写出完整的单词。We all_(钦佩)her for the way she saved the child from the fire.Just to satisfy my_(好奇心),how much did you pay for your house?The _(氛围)over dinner was warm and friendly.You are only _(稍稍)underweight for your height.Several _(十年)have passed since I graduated from the college.Lets get something to eat ; Im s_.Medals were a_ to the best speakers on the debating team.Its said Yoga is of great b_ to human health.Ill come tomorrow if weather p_.The s_ of the disease frightened the villagers.第二节 任务型阅读 （共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的横线上填入最恰当的单词。 注意：每空只填一个单词。Maybe you are an average student.
