And each year in the US, the number of jobs that need S&E skills increases by 5%.In the next 20 years, many talented people with S&E knowledge will retire (退休), because more than half of them now are in their 40s or older and 30% of them are 55 or older. Therefore, to have enough talented people, universities need to train students in S&E. Yet fewer and fewer students are choosing jobs in S&E. In other words, there are not enough new talented people to take the place of the retiring ones, so there will be a gap (缺口) in the future.In the past, the US filled this gap with foreign talented people. These people came to the US to study and got their doctorates (博士学位) from American universities. Many of them lived in the US to use their science skills. In 2001, foreign talented people not more than half of the doctorates in S&E in this country. But the US cant only depend on foreign talented people. In order to have more Americans with doctorates that work in jobs in S&E, more students need to go to university. However, even though the US is starting to support science, and middle school students are deciding to become scientists, these students will not finish their studies until 2018 or 2020.（1）The number of jobs that need S&E skills increases by _ each year in the US. A . 30%B . 5%C . 40%D . 20%（2）According to the passage, which of the following is NOT right? A . In the US many old talented people with S&E knowledge will not retire because they are needed.B . Universities are training students in S&E to have enough talented people.C . A lot of foreign talented people lived in the US to use their science skills.D . Fewer and fewer students are choosing jobs in S&E（3）In the passage the writer thinks that_. A . all the students should study science at university in the USB . foreign talented students get less than half of the doctorates in the USC . the US needs to do something to keep talented people in S&ED . there are too many people in America that need jobs12. （8分）阅读理解Which of your hands do you use most ? Very few of us use both of our hands well. Most of us are right-handed. Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. New-born babies can take things with either of their hands, but in about two years they like to use their right hands. Scientists dont know why this happens. They have studied it. They think our animal ancestors(祖先) are right-handed. This may not be true. Monkeys are our closest relations in the animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys like to use one of their hands more than the otherbut it can be either hand. There are as many right-handed ones. Next time you visit the zoo, watch the monkeys carefully. Youll see that some of them will swing(摆动)from their right hands and others will use their left hands. But most human beings(人类) use their right hands better and this makes life difficult for the left-handed ones. We live in a right-handed world.（1）Very few of us can use both of our hands well. It means _ . A . we cant use one as well as the otherB . we cant use both handsC . many people can use one as well as the other.D . some of us can use both hands（2）New-born babies _ at first.

A . left-handed worldB . right-handed worldC . monkey worldD . animal world（5）The left-handed people are difficult in life because _ A . they cant use their right hands at allB . most people use their right hands better.C . they cant use both of their handsD . they cant use their left hands13. （8分）阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。It is park at the bottom of the ocean. Its cold down there too. Theres no air to breathe. The water pressure is high. There may be fishes that could hurt you. The deep sea can be an unpleasant place. But people are still fascinated by it, not just because of the amazing scenery. The seafloor might hold the secret to the beginning of life on Earth.Oceans cover more than two-thirds of our planet. Yet, we have explored just a small part of the underwater world. A new project is there to explore the ocean deeper. A new US machine can carry people down to as deep as 6,500 metres. It will take the place of an older machine called Alvin. The old one has been in use for 40 years, but it can only go down to 4,500 metres. Alvin played a key role in many important tasks. Alvin helped biologists collect worms, chemists gather rocks, and oceanographers (海洋学家) map the seafloor and take water sample (样本).But now its about time for a new one. The new machine will be like Alvin. Itll also be about 27 feet long, about the size of a small school bus. The seating area inside will be small, about two metres wide. Like Alvin, itll carry a pilot and two passengers. It will be able to move like Alvin does. Itll give passengers more chances to enjoy the view. Alvin has only three windows. The new one will have five. It will travel more than a mile an hour faster than Alvin. Getting to the bottom faster and moving around more quickly will allow researchers to make the most of their time underwater.（1）According to the passage, at the bottom of the sea, _.it is parkpeople hide some secretsthere may be dangerous fishesthere is no sceneryit is coldthere is high water pressureA .

A . 2,000.B . 4,500.C . 6,500.D . 11,000.（4）This passage is mainly about _.
