阅读下列四篇短文 从每小题后所给的 A B C D 四个选项中 选出最佳选项 并 在答题卡上将该选项涂黑 A A When many people are worried that there are no more heroes in the modern times two university students who lost their lives to rescue drowning children have shown that heroes still exist 存在 According to the Inner Mongolia Morning Post the tragedy 悲剧 occurred on the afternoon of December 14 2002 when three school students skating on a frozen lake in Qingcheng Park in Hohhot fell through the ice into the freezing water More than 20 university students who happened to be near the spot immediately went to the rescue of the children Two children were quickly rescued but the third died The child s body was not found for three hours Two of the rescuers Liu Ye and Hao Longbiao also died of cold and exhaustion 筋疲力尽 The body of Hao who took the lead in jumping into the lake was not found until the next day A student who was unwilling to tell his name said he and his classmates from the local college were taking photos at the lake When they heard the children s cries for help they went to the ice hole hand in hand to rescue the children But the ice kept breaking causing most of them to fall into the icy water Local residents held mourning ceremonies 祭奠仪式 at the lake Eight of the students were seriously affected by the freezing water and were being kept in hospital for further observation but their lives were no longer in danger 46 The underlined word occurred here means A employed B mixed C guided D happened 47 When the three students fell into water the university students were A skating on the ice B taking photos at the lake C having a picnic D walking along the lake 48 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage A Three students died on the same day in all B Hao Longbiao s body was found on December 14 2002 5 C The university students didn t think it dangerous to save the drowning children in the lake D Local residents were not brave in face of danger 49 It can be inferred that A people think little of the two university students death B the ice on the lake wasn t strong enough to skate on C some students regretted for what they had done D heroes don t agree with the steps of modern times 50 The author wrote the passage to A warn people of the danger of skating on ice B call on people to learn from the brave university students C tell us a tragedy D advise university students to

officials said the show would go on even without tigers However the officials can t simply turn a blind eye to the ethical problems left behind Even before this tragedy animal rights activists protested against keeping wild animals in unnatural conditions and forcing them to suffer for the profit of circus organizers It is now time for us to take effective steps to make sure that circus animals are treated properly CircusCircus SafeSafe forfor AnimalsAnimals Our circus recently suffered a most tragic event in its history While we are thankful for the pity from the public we are also astonished by the opinion expressed in Tragedy at the Circus First our performing animals are not taken from the wild As to the ethical problems we always believe humans and animals can and should live together nicely To us the performing animals are representatives of their species and our circus is one of the only places left willing to support this special role of performing animals in the existence of the species Those who argue that circus life is harmful to animals show little knowledge of these facts Life in the wild is unsafe but a continuous struggle for existence To overlook these realities is the greatest fault against the animal kingdom This circus has proven that animals are stronger and smarter than we could imagine Within the circus is a joyful atmosphere for both animals and humans people are educated and species saved 51 What is the main purpose of the first passage A To show pity for the performing animals B To express worries about animal trainers safety C To deal with the difficult situations of the circus D To call for action to protect circus animals 6 52 What will the circus most probably do A Take no notice of the tragedy B Continue its performances C Use fewer wild animals D Limit its profit 53 What does the circus think of its performing animals A They are as clever as human beings B They struggle continuously with human beings for existence C They are helpful in saving their species D They have equally natural living conditions as wild animals C C Post Login Register Support SourcingSourcing assistantassistant neededneeded

to being a successful person Look at the example of the blue whale it has a huge brain but it still doesn t know how to avoid whalers or use its large size and weight to deal with those who try to use their body for profit Scientists hold an opinion that the blue whale is just like some highly intelligent people who 8 fail to succeed Those highly intelligent people can t succeed in life because they can t communicate well with the world around them Intelligence is a word in life that makes you think you are better than others Intelligence can blind these very people from how others view them These people also think that the route to power and success results purely from intelligence and they sometimes live in a fantasy world that they create by their supposed brain power This is a distance that develops whether or not they realize it and sometimes a person can be disliked simply because of his or her intelligence This distance is sometimes so far apart that it gets to the position where they can t listen to each other One side thinks the other is stupid and the other thinks he she is haughty 傲慢的 And most of the time it is the intelligent people who lose themselves in this situation They become unpopular with most of the people around them This affects them in whatever they do and sooner or later they will lose their confidence It doesn t help that they get a culture shock especially when they leave college and realize success and richness don t always and sometimes never come naturally with intelligence While some might think this is a dramatic picture to paint it is sometimes the end result of some people 58 The example of the blue whale is used to show A communication is more important than intelligence B human beings are always more intelligent than animals C humans should have the sense of protecting animals D the blue whale is the largest animal in the world 59 What makes the intelligent people lose their confidence A They become separated from other people and lose their support B They often can t get higher positions though they are intelligent C They can t persuade those stupid people to accept their ideas D They often can t make good use of their advantages 60 We can infer that the end result of the supposed intelligent people would be A great achievements B more enjoyable C failure in the future D surely successful 第二节 共第二节 共 5 5 小题

values F Be willing to change 9 You need to change in order to grow Changing your life is a continuous process It never ends The moment you stop changing you stop growing Here are some tips that may help to change your life To change your life you need time to think and reflect If you are always busy you won t have the time to think about your life let alone taking action to change it It s not only the scenery you miss by going too fast you also miss the sense of where you are going and why It s your life nobody can change it but you If you aren t willing to change then nothing in this world can make you do so To build the willingness to change first you should realize that your life can be better than it is now No matter how good your life is it can always be improved On the other hand don t feel hopeless if your life doesn t seem good right now You can always change your life for the better Don t blame other people for the bad things that happen in your life Don t blame your family friends boss or the economy Whether your life goes up or down depends on you and you alone Stephen Covey once said We immediately become more effective when we decide to change ourselves rather than asking things to change for us Deep down in your heart there are some principles that you know is true Take the time to find them What do you think is the most valuable things in life What principles do you think you must follow to live a fulfilling life These are the values that you need to align yourself with Find them and remind yourself constantly about them 61 62 63 64 10 Not only
