He lived in the country, and came up to work by train. He liked walking from the station to his office unless it was raining, because it gave him some exercise.One morning he was walking along the street when a stranger stopped him and said to him, “You may not remember me, sir, but several years ago I came to London without a penny in my pockets. I stopped you in this street and asked you to lend me some money, and you lent me five pounds, because you said you were willing to take a chance so as to give a man a start on the way to success.”Mr. Grey though for a few minutes and then said, “Yes, I remember you. Go on with your story.”“Well”， answered the stranger, “are you still willing to take a chance？”第二节到此结束。第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的4个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。AA desert is a beautiful land of silence and space. The sun shines, the wind blows, and time and space seem endless. Nothing is soft. The sand and rocks are hard, and many of the plants even have hard needles instead of leaves.The size and location(分布) of the worlds deserts are always changing. Over millions of years, as climates change and mountains rise, new dry and wet areas develop. But within the last 100 years, deserts have been growing at a frightening speed. This is partly because of natural changes, but the greatest makers are humans.Humans can make deserts, but humans can also prevent their growth. Algeria Mauritania is planting a similar wall around Nouakchott, the capital. Iran puts a thin covering of petroleum(石油) on sandy areas and plants and trees. The oil keeps the water and small trees in the land, and men on motorcycles(摩托车) keep the sheep and goats away. The USSR and India are building long canals to bring water to desert areas.21In this passage, the underlined word “needles” refers to _.Asmall, thin pieces of steelBlong, thin pieces of branchesCsmall pointed growth on the stem(茎) of a plantDsmall, thin pieces of sticks答案：C词义猜测题。从instead of leaves可知needles是沙漠中植物的叶子，众所周知沙漠中植物的叶子是针状的，再看steel(钢)，branches(树枝)，stick(棒)都不是与叶对应的物体，只有C项(长在植物茎上的尖的小物体)是“针状叶”的意思，故答案选C。22Which of the following is NOT true?AThe greatest desert makers are humans.BThere arent any living things in the deserts.CDeserts have been growing quickly.DThe size of the deserts is always changing.答案：B细节理解题。从第一段最后一句“many of the plants even have hard needles instead of leaves”可知B项错误。23People in some countries are fighting a battle against _.Athe growth of desertsBthe disappearance of desert plantsCnatural changesDcongenital climate答案：A细节理解题。从第三段“Humans can make deserts，but humans can also prevent their growth.(人类可能造成沙漠，但人类也可以防止沙漠的增长。)”可知选项A正确。24Choose the sentence which best gives the purpose of the passage.AThe deserts of the world are always changing.BMan is to take measures to control the growth of the worlds deserts.CDeserts are lands of silence and space.DDeserts have grown at a fast pace in the past 10 years.答案：B主旨大意题。文章第二段讲沙漠增长速度惊人，第三段举例说明人类正采取措施控制沙漠增长，可见文章谈沙漠增长的目的是为了引出人类对它的治理，故答案为B。BDo you want to see the effects of global warming? Then head north. Recent studies indicate that the North Pole, instead of coated in thick sea ice, could be underwater during the summer in less than 10 years. But seeing the Arctic terrain (地带) up close isnt easy, unless youre handy with a dogsled (狗拉的雪橇). Steger is going to take all of us there. Steger, 64, is a great polar explorer. He was the first person to make a dogsled trip to the North Pole, and is also a devoted environmentalist who was early to ring the alarm bell on global warming. Steger is about to lead a term of six young adventurers on a 1400mile, 60daylong dogsled trip across Ellesmere Island, in the Canadian Arctic. The sea ice in that region should still be frozen. “We want to take our audience to the front lines of global warming, ”says Steger. The team will be uploading videos, stories and photos to the website as they march along, allowing armchair adventures and kids in classrooms to follow their progress day to day. Stegers team will include some alreadyfamous young explorers. Sam Branson, 22yearold, is an experienced Arctic traveler. Also on the journey will be 27yearold Norwegian Sigrid Ekran. Last year Ekran became only the second woman in history to win Rookie (新秀) of the Year for the Iditarod Sled Dog Race. What they will see may be surprising. Even Steger doesnt know exactly what to expect. Climate change has already reshaped the geography of the Arctic. “Within a decade or less, its going to be impossible to reach the North Pole by dog team without flotation(漂浮), ”says Steger. 25We can learn from the first paragraph that _. Aclimate change happens only in the far northBthe effects of climate change are most obvious in the Arctic terrainCclimate change is going to be the biggest issue facing human raceDclimate change is the result of pollution答案：B推理判断题。由第一段可知，气候变化的影响在北极地带是最显而易见的。其他选项在文中均无依据。26It can be inferred that the aim of the dogsled trip is to _. Aencourage young people to explore the ArcticBpresent the Arctic terrain to geography classesCstudy the cause of climate change in polar regionDraise awareness of the damage that climate change is causing in polar regions答案：D推理判断题。短文第二段给予提示：Steger此行的目的是引起人们对气候变化对北极地区带来破坏的关注。27Why does Steger NOT know what they will see during their trip? ABecause it will be the first time for him to go that far north. BBecause the sea ice in that region should still be frozen. CBecause the geography there has changed, due to higher temperatures. DBecause they will go there by boat instead of by sledge. 答案：C推理判断题。从短文最后一段可知，Steger不知道北极之行他们会看到什么，是因为气候变暖而导致了地理改变。CSeveral years ago，the mayor of Chicago，Illinois, visited Germany, a leader in green roof design.Mayor Richard Daley later decided to have vegetation planted on Chicago City Hall. Today, the tops of many other buildings also look like parks. In Canada, the Coast Plaza Hotel in Vancouver has a forest on its roof. New York City has an unusual demonstration farm for hydroponics. The farm is on a boat called the Science Barge. Rainwater and purified river water are used to grow lettuce，tomatoes，cucumbers and peppers. The farm shows the possibilities for designing rooftop systems.Green roofs are designed to save energy and capture rainwater. Rooftops covered with plants help keep buildings cool. They can extend the life of a roof. And they can reduce water running off into streets and storming water systems.Experts say green roofs usually do not get much above twentyseven degrees Celsius. So temperatures might not be a problem for growing.But rooftop gardeners have to be careful not to put too much weight on the roof. This is true whether plants are grown in soil or water.Earlier in 2008，researchers in Texas reported that green roofs can reduce a buildings air conditioning costs by about onefifth compared to blacktop roofs. But they also reported that not all green roofs perform equally well. They found that designs differ in their ability to keep buildings cool and to capture rainwater. The researchers put experimental roofs on top of metal insulated boxes, to recreate green roof conditions. The study compared products from six companies to help businesses understand how to improve their designs. Each rooftop had sixteen different kinds of plants native to Texas. The researchers say the presence of native plants likely helped all the green roofs capture water better compared to sedums.Sedums are plants that need little water and often are used on green roofs. The native plants could take in more water and release more of it to the atmosphere.文章大意：本文主要介绍了一种新的环保模式绿色屋顶。28The author gave Paragraph 1 to _.Atell us what is green roof designBtell us Germany is the country that leads or guides the green roof designCintroduce some famous hotels in the worldDlead to the topic of the passage答案：D推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，第一段通过举例引出“绿色屋顶”的话题，为进一步阐述该话题作准备。29The underlined word “storming” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by _.AattackingBcontrollingCattractingDmanaging答案：A词义猜测题。根据句子结构分析，and连接两个并列成分，前面的running off into stress可知这里的storming也用作动词，意为“侵袭”。30The advantages of green roofs are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _.Achanging the local weatherBprolonging the roofs lifeCkeeping the house coolDreducing the houses air conditioning costs答案：A细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“Rooftops covered with plants help keep buildings cool.They can extend the life of a roof”可知B、C两项正确；根据最后一段首句可知D项正确。A项文中未提及。31According to the passage，which conclusion is WRONG?ASometimes green roofs may break down the house.BNot all the green roofs can reduce the buildings air conditioning costs equally.CDifferent designs of green roofs have different effects on buildings.DSedums are a kind of plants of native to Texas.答案：D细节理解题。根据第三段第三句中的“rooftop gardeners have to be careful not to put too much weight on the roof”可推出A项正确；根据最后一段中的“But they also reported that not all green roofs perform equally well”可知B项正确；根据最后一段中的“They found that designs differ in their ability to keep buildings cool and to capture rainwater”可知C项正确；根据最后一段倒数第二、三句可知sedums不是Texas当地的植被。DWilliam Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13,1865.His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered“little of childhood but its pain”In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his familyboth his father and his brother were painters.But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding ant Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didnt lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works，Yeats poems attract much admiring notice.The subject matter includes love，nature，history，time and aging.Though Yeat
