We steadily “like” or “dislike thembased on our acquired attitude and rarely do we to see the situation from another persons point of view. While it is okay to be traditional. it does no good to be prejudiced,So why do we get prejudiced? Is it because our parents have held on to an opinion and we just reflect it? No. While we all respect our family traditions. each generation makes its own decisions based on its priorities vastly different from its predecessor. None of us are actually so naive to listen to someone who will poison our thoughts. So we only have ourselves to blame for our prejudices.First. to adjust our attitude. we must be honest with ourselves and take responsibility for our attitude.

The new ice thats replacing it travels farther and faster than the older ice had. As the new ice travels, it carries dirt, organisms and pollution along for the ride, new research shows.Researchers have been tracking the movements of the Arctic ice for several years. They noticed that the area covered by ice making the trip from one side of ocean to the other has grown larger and larger. That movement means that far-away reaches of the Arctic are becoming more connected, notes Robert Newton, from Columbia University.The speedy ice is a problem, he explains. “The ice in the Arctic is surprisingly polluted,” he said. “When the ice travels from one part of the Arctic to the other, it carries all that material with it.”Winds sweep airborne pollution north from lower latitudes. Much of that pollution can settle into the ocean and onto sea ice. Industries along Arctic coastlines, such as gold mining and oil drilling, also can pollute the regions waters. As new ice forms in the fall and winter, that pollution gets trapped inside the ice. When that ice then melts in the spring and summer, itll bring the pollution it carried back into the ocean.In the study, the researchers put together pictures of the Arctic. The pictures came from satellites far above the surface. They used computer software that can recognize the edges of sea ice. This allowed them to follow the movements of the ice from formation to melting. To help them do that, they also included tracking buoys(浮标)on the ice that had been equipped with GPS devices.About 60% of the Arctic ice travels less than 100 kilometers from its birthplace, they found. The rest covers an area equal to tens of thousands of square kilometers. It can travel hundreds or even thousands of kilometers. And that ice is moving faster as well.24.What does the text focus on?A. Climate change is becoming more serious.B. The Arctic ice travels fast and carries pollution.C. Its difficult to follow the movements of the ice.D. The Arctic is likely to be covered by the ice.25.Robert Newton considers the speedy ice to be a problem because it_.A. travels much faster than beforeB. is much easier to pollute than beforeC. results in more environmental disastersD. increases the risk of spreading pollution26.The fourth paragraph is intended to show how_.A. the ice gets pollutedB. the ocean is damagedC. the ice comes into being D. the ocean changes the ice27.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. Using computer software.B. Taking photos of the Arctic.C. Following the movements of the ice.D. Collecting pictures through satellites.C The North and South poles are remote and freezing places that receive lots of animal visitors but few human tourists. But 2007 marked the beginning of the International Polar Year (IPY), a two-year-old activity of science projects that aimed to show how important the poles are to the health of our planet. During the IPY, which lasted until March 2009, thousands of researchers from more than 60 countries conducted more than 200 projects and expeditions to both the top and bottom of the world. In recent years, the polar regions have begun to change severely as a result of global warming. Temperatures there are rising faster than anywhere else on Earth. As a result, the ice and snow in these regions are melting at record-setting rates. One result is that sea levels are rising around the world, putting animals and people at risk. Only by studying the poles, say IPY researchers, can we find ways to protect them and ourselves. Both the Arctic and the Antarctic are cold and remote, but the two regions have important differences. For one thing, the Arctic is an ice-covered ocean surrounded by land. The Antarctic, on the other hand, is a continent of ice-covered land surrounded by water.Most polar studies have focused on the Arctic, and that is where scientists have observed the most remarkable changes in the ice. During a typical year, Arctic ice expands in the winter and shrinks in the summer. But recently, the amount of ice covering the ocean has been steadily dropping in both seasons.28The goal of the International Polar Year is _.Ato make it clear that the poles have much to do with a healthy earthBto provide practical theory to further develop this distant areaCto call on as many scientists as possible to do research on the polesDto discover more mysteries unknown to man29What is the main factor that has caused the changes of the poles?AThe increasing number of animals.BThe development of the poles.CThe melting of the poles.DThe rising temperature.30What unusual phenomenon worries the scientists?AIn summer the ice of the Arctic loses faster.BThe ice covering the Arctic decreases even in winter.CThe ice of the Arctic increases less than in the past.DThe changes in the Arctic are more serious.31Which of the following might be the best tile of the passage?AEarths Poles Interest Scientists BThe Animals of Earths PolesCEarths Poles in Danger DThe Discoveries in Earths PolesDMadrid has ordered nearly half of the private cars off the roads on Thursday to deal with the worsening air pollution, a first in Spain.The restriction (限令) will operate between 6.30 a.m. and 9 p.m. every day. The city government said in a statement: “Vehicles with even-number registration plates (偶数牌照）will be allowed to drive around on even-number days and the rest cars on the rest days.”The measure works when levels of harmful NO2 in the atmosphere go above 200 microgrammes in every 1in at least two measuring stations for two days running, and if the air is unlikely to clear soon.On Thursday, the city environment officer Ines Sabanes said the restriction would not be carried out as pollution levels had dropped by the required amount. Other measures, including a ban on street parking for non-local vehicles and reduced speed limits, will continue. There are exceptions to the restriction, such as for hybrid (混合动力的) cars, those carrying three people or more or used by disabled people. Buses, taxis and emergency vehicles are not encompassed, either. “Its not about traffic restrictions but about the important issue of public health,” deputy mayor Marta Higueras said. “Lots of people suffer from breathing problems and are very affected by pollution.”With 3.2 million people and 1.8 million cars, Madrid often suffers from bad pollution. The move to ban half of the cars is Level Three on a series of four measures to prevent pollution. Level Four bans taxis from the city, except those that are hybrid cars.The previous measures carried out by the city hall draw criticism from the Popular Party(PP) which ruled Madrid for nearly a quarter of a century and governs at the national level. The PP spokesman in Madrids local parliament said officials should do more to encourage people to avoid using their cars rather than punish them. The previous measures were carried out by former PP leader Ana Botella just before municipal elections (市政府选举) in Many 2015.32. According to the statement of the city government, _.A. the restriction only works by dayB. the restriction only works on private carsC. every restricted car is restricted nearly half a month in a whole monthD. Vehicles are restricted depending on the first number of registration plates33. According to the passage, vehicles driven from other cities will not be _.A. allowed to drive on Madrids streetsB. included in the new restrictions at allC. restricted if pollution levels dropD. allowed to park on Madrids streets34. What does the underlined word “encompassed” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Punished. B. Encouraged. C. Accepted. D. Included.35. If the air pollution in Madrid becomes worse, _.A. the government will punish more peopleB. more cars will be kept out of the roadsC. new traffic restrictions will be carried outD. more hybrid cars will appear on the road 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。How to Win a Debate Competition Debating doesnt mean that you can end up arguing with your opponents(对手). 36 The following tips on how to win a debate will further help you out.1. 37 This is very important.
