percent have given away nothing about the family wealth.one in three parents said they had never thought to do it. they are worried that their children would become lazy，spend money freely，make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产)they plan to leave them.“there is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation，”said sallie krawcheck，president of the global wealth and investment management of the bank of america.“our research，however，uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”the trend is led by the worlds richest man bill gates，who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife，the bill and melinda gates foundation(基金会)，and not to his children.“we want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most

animal species found on landin addition to millions of people who depend on them for survivalour remaining ancient forests are some of the most diverse ecosystems known to science. they are also vitally important to the health of our planet, especially when it comes to regulating the climate. but ancient forests around the world are under attack. protecting rainforests is on the global agenda (议事日程) in a big way. governments now recognize the importance of protecting tropical forests in order to avoid dangerous climate change, and there is now much debate. as governments try to thrash out the details of a new international agreement, expected to be signed at the end of 2009, they are discussing how best to include measures to save rainforests, and therefore address one of the major causes of climate change. worldwide, forest destruction causes more greenhouse gas emissions (排放) each year than do all the trains, planes and cars on the planet. so if we are to deal with global warming, there is an urgent need to find ways to reduce the 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions caused by forest destruction each year, and to keep the remaining forests standing. we need to protect the planets remaining forests not only to stop climate change from getting worse, but to ensure that we can stand the impacts of global warming. healthy forests absorb and store quantities of carbon, helping to regulate temperature and generate rain. when they are destroyed, this carbon is released into the atmosphere. thus keeping forests standing is both a critical part of regulating climate change and of adapting to a warmer world. to date, most of the talk has focused on how to pay for reducing deforestation (滥伐森林), rather than on how to actually go about doing it. we believe governments need to support local people to protect their environment, as we have been showing for 20 years can be a very effective way of saving rainforests. 1. the best title for the passage is. a. rainforest and climate change b. strategies on protecting rainforestc. serious deforestation to rainforest d. present situation of rainforest2. from the first paragraph we can infer that. a. we have little rainforest left until now b. the ancient forests are being destroyedc. rainforest control the planet in many waysd. rainforest is home to all plants and animals on earth3. the underlined part “thrash out” in the second paragraph means. a. try to understandb. come up withc. hide away d. have a thorough discussion4. greenhouse gas emissions caused by forest destruction. a. are the same amount by transport on earthb. take 20% of global greenhouse gas emissionsc. can be avoided by setting measures onlyd. have nothing to do with climate change5. from the text we can learn that healthy forest. a. can keep us healthy and happyb. can increase the effect from global warmingc. can be helpful in adjusting the temperature d. can give out large amounts of carbon【参考答案】15、abdbc 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项。were so well educated but were useless students who have lost the ability to do anything practical. the only thing weve mastered is consumption.large numbers of students have entered higher education in the past 10 years, but despite being the most educated generation in history, it seems that weve grown increasingly ignorant when it comes to basic life skills. looking back on my first couple of weeks of living in student halls, i consider myself lucky to still be alive. unfamiliar to freshers, there are many hidden dangers in the dirty corners of students accommodation.i have survived a couple of serious boiling egg incidents and lots of cases of food poisoning, probably from dirty kitchen counters. although some of my clothes have fallen victim to ironing experimentation, i think i have now finally acquired all the domestic (居家的) skills i missed out in my modem education.in 2006 and 2010, the charming educationist sir ken robinson gave two very amusing talks in which he discussed the importance of creativity in education. robinsons main viewpoint is that our current education system dislocates people from their natural talents. i would like to go a step further and propose that besides our talents, the system takes away what used to be passed from generation to generation a working knowledge of basic life skills.todays graduates may have earned themselves honor in history, law or economies, but when it comes to simple things like putting up a shelf to hold all their academic books, or fixing a hole in their on trend clothes, they have to call for help from a professional handyman or tailor.since the invention of the internet, it has never been easier for people to access information, but our highly specialized education has made us more one sided than ever.i suggest that we start with the immediate reintroduction of some of the most vital aspects of “domestic science” education, before the current lack leads to serious accidents in student halls.36people call us useless students for the reason that .awhat weve learned is beyond consumptionbwe are educated generationcweve entered higher educationdour

relevant practice.cbecause they are affected by internet.dbecause they are easy to be one-sided.【答案】b【解析】细节理解题。根据the system takes away what used to be passed from generation to generation a working knowledge of basic life skills.这种教育制度使他们有更少的切实的实践，故选b。40the main purpose of writing the passage is that .athere is no need to introduce “domestic science”bits time we did something to current educationcmore attention should be paid to natural sciencedaccidents should be prevented in student halls【答案】b【解析】作者意图题。根据i suggest that we start with the immediate reintroduction of some of the most vital aspects of “domestic science” education,到了我们采取措施解决目前的教育情况的时候了。2015高考英语（附解析答案）.单项填空1my friend was not used_by air，so he felt unwell.ato travelingbto travelctraveling dtravel解析 be used to doing
