In an exclusive interview he gave the Associated Press, Obama acknowledged that the state of the economy could be his biggest hurdle to clear in winning reelection. “I think the economys going to continue to improve, and I think Im going to be able to make an effective case that. I am the person who is best prepared to finish the job so that we are on track to succeed in the 21st century,” Obama said in the video interview conducted in Chicago, where he attended fund-raising events the previous night. “I think I can make that case, and I think that, in the debates that take place over the next 18 months, the American people will feel that I deserve a second term,” he said. Chicago is Obamas home, and the presidents reelection campaign headquarters is also located there. He made the reelection announcement on April 4. According to a Gallup poll released on Friday, Obamas approval rating stood at 41 percent, an all time low. Gallup said the figure was fueled by economic dissatisfaction.36.

Who probably writes this passage?A. an official B. a journalist C. a secretary D. the common peopleB US researchers have found traces of an ancient lake on Mars recently, increasing hopes of discovering evidence that billions of years ago the Red planet hosted life.The lake, which dates back some 3.4 billion years, appears to have covered as much as 80 square miles and was up to 1,500 feet deep, said the team from the University of Colorado.This is the first clear evidence of shorelines on the surface of Mars, said Boulders research associate, Gaetano Di Achille, in a study published in the latest edition of Geophysical Research Letters.The identification of the shorelines and accompanying geological evidence allows us to calculate the size and volume of the lake, which appears to have formed about 3.4 billion years ago.Analysis of the images has shown the water carved out the canyon (溪谷) in which it was found, which then opened out into a valley depositing (使淤积) sediment (沉积) which formed a delta (三角洲).Finding shorelines is a great discovery to us, said assistant professor Brian Hynek, adding it showed the lake existed at a time when Mars was thought to have been cold and dry.Scientists believe the oldest surfaces on Mars formed during the wet and warm era known as the Noachan epoch, about 4.1 billion to 3.7 billion years ago. The newly discovered lake is believed to date from the Hesperian era and postdates the end of the warm and wet period on Mars by 300 million years, according to the study.Scientists believe deltas next to the lake may well hold secrets about past life on Mars as such places on Earth have become the natural deposits of organic carbon and other markers of life.40. The size of the lake found on Mars is _.A. 80 square miles B. 1,500 square miles C. 3.4 billion square miles D. 300 million square miles41. When the lake existed, the weather on Mars was _. A. hot and wet B. wet and warm C. cold and dryD. cold and wet42. Why do scientists think deltas near the lake may hold secrets about past life on Mars?A. Because similar places on Earth have become natural deposits of markers of life. B. Because someone has put secrets about past life on Mars there. C. Because past life has been found in other deltas on Mars. D. Because some people are said to have already seen life marks there.43. How many researchers does the passage mention?A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.44. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. The Noachan epoch was a wet and warm era.B. The lake might have existed 3.4 billion years.C. The discovery cant fully prove that the Mars once hosted life.D. The lake traces prove that there exists life on Mars now.CBertie knew there was something in the windHis mother had been sad in recent days, not sick, just strangely sadThe lion had just lain down beside him, h is head warm on Berties feet when Father cleared his throat and began, Youll soon be eight, BertieA boy needs a proper educationWeve found the right place for you, a school near Salisbury in EnglandHis heart filled with a terrible fear, all Bertie could think of was his white lionBut the lion, he cried, What about the lion?Im afraid theres something else I have to tell you, his father saidLooking across at Berties mother, he took a deep breathThen he told Bertie he had met a circus owner from France, who was over in Africa looking for lions to buyHe would come to their farm in a few daysNo! You cant send him to a circus! said BertiePeople will come to see himHell be shut up behind barsI promised him he never would beAnd they will laugh at himHed rather dieAny animal would! But as he looked across the table at them, he knew their minds were quite made upBertie felt completely betrayedHe waited until he heard his fathers deep breathing next door With his white lion at his heels, he crept downstairs in his pyjamas, took down his fathers rifle from the rack and stepped out into the nightHe ran and ran till his legs could run no moreAs the sun came up over the grassland, he climbed to the top of a hill and sat down, his arms round the lions neckThe time had comeBe wild now, he whisperedYouve got to be wildDont ever come homeAll my life Ill think of youI promise I will He buried his head in the lions neckThen, Bertie clambered down the hill and walked awayWhen he looked back, the lion was still sitting there watching him; but then he stood up, yawned, stretched, a nd sprang down after himBertie shouted at him, but he kept comingHe threw sticksHe threw stonesNothing workedThere was only one thing left to doWith tears filling his eyes and his mouth, he lifted the rifle to his shoulder and fired over the lions head45Berties mother was sad probably because she _Ahad been seriously ill recentlyBhad decided to send Bertie to schoolCknew selling the lion would upset BertieDknew Bertie would hate to go to England46The underlined word they in Para4 probably refers to _Asome audience Bother animals CBerties parents Dcircus owners47In the last paragraph, the boy lifted the rifle to _Akill the lion out of fear Bthreaten the lion back to the wildCprotect himself from the lion Dshow his anger towards his father48The passage intends to show that _Aanimal-hunting is popular in AfricaBparents are sometimes cruel to their childrenCanimals usually lead a miserable life in circusesDpeople and animals can be faithful to each otherDWhy Doesnt Anybody Copy Apple?Apples products are the envy of the world. They have been spectacularly successful and are widely imitated, if not copiedThe minute Apple crystallizes a product, everyone knows how to competeThis idea that the basis of competition is set by Apple and then the race is on to climb the path of improvement is unquestionableWhen Apple releases a product that defines a category or dramatically changes the structure of an industry, it becomes obvious what needs to be builtBut what I wonder is why everyone wants to copy Apples products but nobody wants to copy being Apple?I can think of two reasonsFirstly, Apple is not worth copying because its not successful; secondly, Apples success cannot be copied because it is a magical processThere is a great deal of evidence for the first hypothesisThe idea of Apple being successful is not something reflected in its stock priceBeing valued lower than the average company in the S&P（标准普尔）500 indicates that to whatever degree Apple was successful in the past, its not seen by the vast majority of observers as successful in the futureWhy should one bother copying Apple if it results in being punished with a low valuation? If one works really hard at innovation and then that innovation becomes commoditized（商品化） very quickly, why should one bother?When innovation practitioners are asked what makes Apple successful, t he answers regarding the cause of this success border on the mythicalThe climax of this hypothesis is the chief-sorcerer theory of success which places one magician, like Steve Jobs, in charge of casting all the right spells （符咒）What about Apples own opinion of what makes it tick? Tim Cook refers to a great team and integration of hardware, software and services as unique Apple advantagesIts a better explanation Integration is something that can take a long time, but it is possible with great effortA few companies are starting to make moves in that direction, but efforts are half-heartedThere is no move the Earth panic to become an integrated company from Samsung, Google or MicrosoftMy own suspicion is that Apple is more aware of what makes it special than it lets out However, as Tim points out, its not a formulaIts complex, its subtle, but its not magicIts a process that requires a degree of faith and courage49When a new product of Apple comes out, often it _Aruins an industry dramaticallyBstarts a revolution of an industryCputs itself in an unbeatable positionDis soon overtaken by imitated products50According to the passage, other companies dont copy being Apple because _.AApple is not a successful companyBthey have no access to relevant resourcesCits hard to find a magician like Steve JobsDbeing Apple takes more than time and efforts51We can infer from Para5 that _Aother companies are dedicated to integrationBApple itself is fully aware of its unique advantagesCApple will hold the leading position in this industryDother companies dont have a great team as Apple does52What does the author think of Tim Cooks statement?AConvincing BDisappointing CUnquestionable DAcceptableE53To find advice on vegetable planting, you can log onto _Aawaytogardencom Bslate, com Camazoncom Doverstock, com54When you change coins at Coinstar, you _Amay have to pay extra 8% taxBshall change at least $ 90 each timeCcan save service charge by choosing a gift cardDwill get gifts as a reward from participating merchants55This passage is written to _Aexpress some opinions Bprovide some informationCgive some suggestions Dintroduce some websites第II卷 （非选择题，共65分）第四部分 英汉互译（每小题
