All life supported by the oceans will be affected with this shock to their ecosystem. Coral are some of the most vulnerable marine animals and we are already watching whole reefs disappear. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is no exception and will continue to shrink as the temperatures rise! These reefs are some of the best in the world for diving, but they will soon disappear!Venice-Sprawing across(横跨)hundreds of small islands in Northeast Italy, Venice is at extreme risk of sinking into the Adriatic Sea. Rising sea levels are in fact a serious threat to many coastal cities located at sea level. Lucky for us, however, Venice is developing a series of sea walls to protect the city in times of high tide.Glacier(冰川)National Park-Glacier National Park was once covered by over 150 glaciers, but by 2005 it only had about 27! Located in Montana, Canada, this park is over a million acres and has a huge plant and wildlife population. As temperatures rise, the glaciers and ice melt, which will upset the ecosystems sustaining over a thousand plant species and hundreds of animals.The Amazon-The cause behind the disappearance of these fantastic places ultimately comes down to humans. Our expansion usually requires cutting down forests for land, fuel and materials, but rarely considers the consequences. These forests are sources of food and medicine for just about everyone on the planet! What will happen if we lose these valuable places and beautiful destinations?!21. According to the text, what is causing corals death? A. Rising sea levels B. Humans diving activities C. Rising sea temperatures D. The shrinkage(缩小)of their habitats22. What can we infer from the part of “Venice”? A. Venice is the only coastal city of Italy B. Many places are in the risk of sinking below the sea level C. Venice will never sink because of the protection of sea walls D. Italy consists of hundreds of small islands in the Adriatic Sea23. What can we learn about GlacierNational Park from the text? A. It covers a large area in Montana B. It is covered by over 150 glaciers C. Plant species and animals in it have died out D. It doesnt support any living thing for its cold24. Which sites shrinking reason differs from the other sites?A. The Great Barrier Reef B. Venice C. GlacierNational Park D. The AmazonBMany a young person tells me that he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that theres a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “Youve got to want to write, “I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no prospects at all: what I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and left like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadnt gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I wasnt going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keep putting my dream to the test-even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.25.The passage is meant to _.A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer C. show young people its unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career26.“people who die wondering, what if?” (Para.3) refers to “those _”.A. who think too much of the dark side of lifeB. who regret giving up their career halfwayC. who think a lot without making a decisionD. who are full of imagination even upon death27.“shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _.A. the wonderland one often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward to C. the state of uncertainty before ones final goal is reachedD.a world that exists only in ones imaginationCPriscilla Ouchidas “energy-efficient” house turned out to be a horrible dream. When she and her engineer husband married a few years ago, they built a $100,000, three-bedroom home in California. Tightly sealed to prevent air leaks, the house was equipped with small double-paned windows and several other energy-saving features. Problems began as soon as the couple moved in, however. Priscillas eyes burned. Her throat was constantly dry. She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep. It was as though she had suddenly developed a strange illness. Experts finally traced the cause of her illness. The level of formaldehyde（甲醛）gas in her kitchen was twice the maximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers. The source of the gas? Her new kitchen cupboards and wall-to-wall carpeting. The Ouchidas are victims of indoor air pollution, which is not given sufficient attention partly because of the nations drive to save energy. The problem itself isnt new. “The indoor environment was dirty long before energy conservation came along,” says Moschandreas, a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies in Maryland. “Energy conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in some cases.” The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes rather than old ones. Back in the days when energy was cheap, home builders didnt worry much about unsealed cracks. Because of such leaks, the air in an average home was replaced by fresh outdoor air about once an hour. As a result, the pollutants generated in most households seldom build up to dangerous levels. 28. It can be learned from the passage that the Ouchidas house _. A. is well worth the money spent on its construction B. is almost perfect from the point of energy conservation C. failed to meet energy conservation standards D. was designed and constructed in a scientific way 29. What made the Ouchidas new house a horrible dream? A. Lack of fresh air. B. Poor quality of building materials. C. Gas leakage in the kitchen. D. The newly painted walls 30. Why were cracks in old houses not a big concern? A. Because indoor cleanness was not emphasized. B. Because they were technically unavoidable. C. Because environmental protection was more important. D. Because energy used to be inexpensive.31. This passage is most probably taken from an article entitled “_”. A. Energy Conservation B. HousesBuilding Crisis C. Air Pollution Indoors D. Traps in Building ConstructionDMillions of people visit YosemiteNational Park every year to see the tall waterfalls and mountains. The mountains are a splendid sight when viewed from the valley floor. Lots of stores, hotels, and restaurants are needed to handle the crowds. Also, water, roads, and other service systems are part of the infrastructure(基础设施) that must be maintained .Unfortunately, these systems are starting to break down. Its not just in Yosemite but in national parks around the nation. Yosemite is thirty years old according to Dennis Galvin, a National Park Service worker. The park is not only old but worn out. Two or three times as many visitors come every year. That is too many visitors for the park to deal with.Four years ago a storm washed out a water pipeline in the Grand Canyon. The National Park Service had to send water trucks to provide water for the visitors. Last month pipes almost broke again and roads had to be closed for a while.Why hasnt the National Park Service kept up the park repairs? There is a lack of money. The United States has 378 monuments, parks, and wilderness areas. Between three and four billion dollars are needed for repairs.Yosemite is one national park that does have money for repairs. It has two hundred million dollars but cannot spend it any way it chooses. When the park workers started widening the road, they were forced to stop by the Sierra Club. The club claimed that the road work was damaging the Merced River that runs through the park.A Sierra Club lawyer, Julia Olson, feels that the infrastructure needs to be moved out of Yosemite. That way less pressure will be put on the already crowded park.32According to the text, the mountains in Yosemite look splendid when they are appreciated from _.Athe bottom of the valleys Bthe top of the mountainsCthe side of the mountains Dthe edge of the valleys33National parks like Yosemite in the U.S. find it increasingly difficult to meet the need of visitors because _.Atheir transport management needs improvingBthey spend too much on their service systemsCtheir service systems frequently go out of orderDthey need help from environmental organizations34The main problem of YosemiteNational Park is its _.Arundown water pipesBover crowdedness Clack of money Dnarrow roads35According to the text, the Sierra Club is most likely to be _.Aan environmental groupBan information center Ca travel service Da law firm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。Every living thing has genes. Genes carry information. 36 They make sure that humans give birth to humans and cows give birth to cows. However, genetic engineers take genes from one species for example, a snake, and transfer them to another for example, corn. 37 Such new life forms have been described, by some scientists as a real-life Frankenstein.Genetic engineers put duck genes into chicken to make the chickens bigger. They put hormones(激素) into cows to make them produce more milk. They put genes from flowers into beans and from fish into tomatoes. 38 It just makes them easier and faster for the farmer to grow.The effects of genetic engineering on the natural world may be disastrous. The engineers may create strange life beings or monsters that we cannot control. 39 Theyll have to find one, fight for one, or kill for one. It may be your land they fight for, or you that they kill. Moreover, the effects of these experiments can often be cruel. In America, pigs were given human genes to make them bigger and less fatty. The experiment failed. The pigs became very ill and began to lose their eyesight.We would all like a better, healthier and longer life, and genetic engineering might give us this. On the other hand, it may be a dangerous experiment with nature. In the story of Frankenstein, the doctor created such a terrible and dangerous monster that he had to destroy it. 40 A. The information tells us what to do or what not to do.B. We must make sure that this tale remains a story and no more than that.C. This doesnt make them cheaper, tastier, or healthier.D. The new life forms have no natural habitat or home.E. Then they feed the tomatoes to the fish.F. In this way, a new life form is created.G. They are passed on from generation to generation.第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，每小题1.5分，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。“Paul must have been trying to carry his waste paper to garbage can and dropped a few pieces.” I 41 picking them up. 42 later I found more pieces.
