By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. There will be a lot of people to feed. We need more food.One way to produce more food is by growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic material(遗传物质). Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified foods(转基因食品), or GM foods.By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. They make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice is being prepared, for example, which stops people from becoming blind.Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050. There are strong feelings against them, because they are unnatural. They may feed people, then hurt them or their children later. But, both rich and poor countries are very interested in their use, and they are not going to go away. In 2050 we may think differently about them.（1）GM foods _.A . are a quick way to produce foodB . grow in the wildC . are safeD . are grown only in rich countries（2）Why do some people not like GM foods?A . They are not useful.B . They are not helpfulC . They are not naturalD . They are not natural（3）From the reading we know that _.A . GM foods will disappear one day in the futureB . GM foods will not disappear in the futureC . people will not be interested in GM foodsD . people will have to stop using GM foods13. （8分）阅读下面材料，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。CA young and successful man was driving down a street in his new Jaguar (捷豹汽车).

I took the bus to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station. But I was refused every time. In one studio, a nice lady told me that big stations didnt want to accept inexperienced persons. “Go to the countryside and find a small station thatll give you a chance,” she said.I returned home, Dixon in Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Smith Ward had opened a store and wanted a local sportsman to manage its sports department. Since I had played high school football in Dixon, I applied(申请). The job sounded just right for me. But I still failed in the interview.

The program director, named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.As I left his office, I felt sad. I asked aloud, “How can a man become a sports announcer if he cant get a job in a radio station?”I was waiting for the lift when I heard MacArthur calling, “What did you say about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he made me stand before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game.

When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转) of the earth. At the equator(赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 in the morning and sets at 6 in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted(倾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than night. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.（1）When the Western Hemisphere is having day, the Eastern Hemisphere is having _.A . both day and nightB . dayC . neither day nor nightD . night（2）A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by _ of the earth.A . the pushingB . the pullingC . the spinningD . the passing（3）At the equator day is as long as night _.A . sometimesB . neverC . usuallyD . always（4）When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere gets _ sunlight.A . lessB . moreC . allD . no四、 词汇运用。 (共2题；共15分)16. （5分）用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空。每词仅用一次，每空一词。whoever help leaf praise beside（1）When Im sick, Mom always stays _ me.（2）Last Sunday, we went to Chaliao to enjoy the beautiful red _.（3）_ breaks this rule must be punished.（4）My Chinese teacher Miss Li is a _ and warm-hearted person.（5）All the great erhu masters play and _ Abings Erquan Yingyue.17. （10分）根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，
