If so, how did human beings acquire this amazing skills ? Biologist can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms function, but this doesnt tell us how that part of our bodies originated in our biological history56According to the passage, the wonder we take for granted is Aour ability to use languageBthe miracle of technologyCthe amazing power of natureDour ability to make noises with mouth57What feature of “body language” mentioned in the passage is common to both human and animals?ALifting heads when sadBKeeping long faces when angryCBristling hair when ready to attackDBowing heads when willing to obey58What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?ABody language is unique to humansBHumans are no different from animals to some degreeCHumans have other powers of communicationDAnimals express emotions just as humans do59This passage is mainly about Athe development of body languageBthe special role humans play in natureCthe power to convey information to othersDthe difference between humans and animals in language useBI think it was my mother who taught me the meaning of honesty. Not because she actually was honest, but because she lied all the time. She felt that the easiest way out of any given situation was generally the best way out. And, for her, that generally meant telling a “little white lie.” As a young child I thought it was kind of cool. And, naturally, when I would come to her with a concern or question wondering what I should do, she generally advised me to lie.“Mom, I told Theresa that I would go over to her house, but now I would rather go to Sues house to play.”“Tell Theresa youre sick,” she would advise. And generally I did. But I didnt seem blessed with her lack of conscience. On many painful occasions Theresa would find out that I really went to Sues house without her. These occasions taught me that it is more painful to be caught in a lie than it is to tell the truth in the first place. I wondered how it was possible that my mother had never learned that lesson.I started thinking of all the lies that Id heard her tell. I remembered the time she told someone that her favorite restaurant had closed, because she didnt want to see them there anymore. Or the time she told Dad that she loved the lawn-mower he gave her for her birthday. Or when she claimed that our phone lines had been down when she was trying to explain why she hadnt been in touch with a friend of hers for weeks. And what bothered me even more were all the times she had involved me into her lies. Like the time she told my guidance counselor that I had to miss school for exploratory surgery, when she really needed me to babysit. And it even started to bother me when someone would call for her and she would ask me to tell them that she wasnt there.So, I started my own personal fight against her dishonesty. When I answered the phone and it was someone my mother didnt want to talk to, I said, “Louise, mom is here, but she doesnt want to talk to you.” The first time I did it, she punished me, but I refused to apologize. I told her that I had decided that it was wrong to lie. And the next time it happened I did the same thing. Finally, she approached me and said, “I agree that lying is not the best thing to do, but we need to find a way to be honest without being rude.” She admitted that her methods werent right, and I admitted that mine were a bit too extreme.Over the past few years, the two of us have worked together to be honestand yet kind. Honesty should mean more than not lying. It should mean speaking the truth in kindness. Though I started by trying to teach my mom the importance of honesty, I ended up gaining a deeper understanding of the meaning of the term.60. The authors mother _.

Its the second report this week warning of the on-going risks and threats linked to nitrogen pollution.Nitrogen in the atmosphere is harmless in its inert(惰性的) state, but the report says reactive forms of nitrogen, largely produced by human activity, can be a menace to the natural world.Emissions mostly come from vehicle exhausts(排气), factories, artificial fertilizers(肥料) and animal waste from intensive farming. The reactive nitrogen they emit to the air disrupts the environment in two ways: It can make acidic soils too acidic to support their previous mix of species. But primarily, because nitrogen is a fertilizer, it favors wild plants that can maximize the use of nitrogen to help them grow. In effect, some of the nitrogen spread to fertilize crops is carried in the atmosphere to fertilize weeds, possibly a great distance from where the chemicals were first applied.The effects of fertilization and acidification favor common aggressive species like grasses, brambles and nettles. They harm more delicate species like mosses(苔藓), and insect-eating sundew plants.The report said 60% of wildlife sites were now receiving a critical load of reactive nitrogen. The reports lead author, Dr Kevin Hicks from the University of Yorks Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI), told BBC News that Englands Peak District had a definitely low range of species as a result of the reactive nitrogen that fell on the area.“Nitrogen creates a rather big problem that seems to me to have been given too little attention,” he said. “Governments are responsible for protecting areas like this, but they are clearly failing.” He said more research was needed to understand the knock-on effects for creatures from the changes in vegetation accidentally caused by emissions from cars, industry and farms. At the conference, the representatives agreed “The Edinburgh Declaration on Reactive Nitrogen”. The document highlights the importance of reducing reactive nitrogen emissions to the environment, adding that the benefits of reducing nitrogen outweigh the costs of taking action.64. The underlined word “menace” is used to express that the reactive nitrogen, largely produced by human activity can be _.A. frighteningB. threateningC. uniqueD. unusual65. We can infer from the passage that _.A. its harmless to have reactive nitrogen existing in the atmosphereB. reactive nitrogen emissions help aggressive species less than cropsC. the harm to those delicate species has a negative impact on biodiversityD. reactive nitrogen can fertilize soils and keep their biodiversity66. The team of EU scientists released the second report of nitrogen emissions this week when _.A. no action was taken to stop nitrogen emissionB. governments were willing to protect areas harmed by nitrogen C. “The Edinburgh Declaration on Reactive Nitrogen” was agreedD. nitrogen emissions were threatening wildlife sites biodiversity67. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Keeping Away From Nitrogen EmissionsB. Stopping Nitrogen EmissionsC. Air Pollution Damaging Europes WildlifeD. Saving Europes WildlifeDIn the decade（十年）of the 1970s, the United Nations organized several important meetings on the human environment to study a very serious problemWe humans are destroying the world around usWe must learn to protect them, or life will be very bad for our children and grandchildrenThere are several major aspects to this problemPopulationMost problems of the environment come from population growthIn 1700 there were 635 million people in the world; in 1900 there were 16 billion; in 1950, 25 billion; and in 1980, 44 billionIn the year 2010 there will be 73 billionMore people need more water, more food, more wood, and more petroleumDistributionScientists say there is enough water in the world for everyone, but some countries have a lot of water and some have only a littleSome areas get all rain during one seasonThe rest of the year is dryPetroleumWe are using up the worlds petroleumWe use it in our cars and to heat our buildings in winterFarmers use petrochemicals to make the soil richThey use them to kill insects on those plantsThese chemicals go into rivers and lakes and kill the fish thereThousands of people also die from these chemicals every yearChemicals also go into the air and pollute itWinds carry this polluted air to other countries and other countriesPovertyPoor farmers use the same land over and overThe land needs a rest so it will be better next yearHowever, the farmer must have food every yearPoor people cut down trees for firewoodIn some areas when the trees are gone, the land becomes desertHowever, people need wood to cook their food nowPoor people cannot save the environment for the futureWe now have the information and the ability to solve these huge problemsHowever, this is not a problem for one country or one area of the worldIt is a problem for all humansThe people and the nation of the world must work together to protect the worlds resourcesNo one controls the future, but we all help make it68According to the passage, our world is being destroyed mainly because _Apollution is getting worse and worse Bpopulation are increasing greatlyCwe humans are using up all of our natural resourcesDdistribution is not reasonable69Good distribution means _Ahaving things in the right place at the right timeBcutting down forests and selling them to other countriesCbuilding water systems to carry water to farmsDconserving our natural resources70The best title of the passage should be _AThe World Being Destroyed BA Serious Problem We Should Pay Attention toCAspects That Destroyed Our WorldDConserving the Worlds Natural Resources第四部分：任务型阅读（共10
