11、每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。21（6分）Recently a study，led by Pedro Hallal of the Federal University，suggests that nearly a third of adults，31%，are not getting enough exercise. That rates of exercise have declined is hardly a new discovery. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution，technology and ec

12、onomic growth have helped to create a world in which taking exercise is more and more an option rather than a necessity. But only recently have enough good data been collected from enough places to carry out the sort of analysis Dr. Hallal and his colleagues have engaged in.There are common themes i

13、n different places. Unsurprisingly，people in rich countries are less active than those in poor ones，and old people are less active than young ones. Less obviously，women tend to exercise less than men34% are inactive，compared with 28% of men. But there are exceptions. The women of Croatia，Finland，Ira

14、q and Luxembourg，for example，move more than their male countrymen.Malta wins the race for most slothful country，with 72% of adults getting too little exercise，and Swaziland and Saudi Arabia are in close behind，with 69%. In Bangladesh，just 5% of adults fail to exercise enough. Surprisingly，six Americ

15、ans in ten are active enough according to Dr. Hallals study，compared with fewer than four in ten British.These high rates of inactivity are worrying. Human beings seem to have evolved to benefit from exercise while deliberately avoiding it whenever they can. In a state of nature it would be impossib

16、le to live a life that did not provide enough of it. But that is no longer the case. Actually lack of enough activity these days has nearly the same effect on life span as smoking.1、We may learn from Paragraph 1 that _.Athe decline of exercise rates is newly discoveredBthe study suggests 31% of fema

19、se22（8分） Wood has many great characteristics that make it the perfect building material.It is cheap，durable，easily available，and most importantly，environmentally sustainable.The one thing it is not，is transparent! Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholms KTH Royal Institute of Technology the

20、 material may even be able to add that feature to its already impressive list.Lead researcher Dr，Lars Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after learning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices.The

21、team began by pulling out the woods lignin(木质素).The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物)and baked at a temperature of 158F for four hours.The result was a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also，almost transparent.The researchers were abl

22、e to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.While scientists have previously created a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips，the transparent wood is the first one being considered for l

23、arge scale applications.The researchers，who revealed their findings in Biomacromolecules on April 11，picture using the transparent wood in buildings to allow for more natural light，or to create windows that let in the desired amount of light without sacrificing privacy.Wood that allows light to pass

24、 through could lead to a brighter future for homes and buildings.Berglund also thinks the wood could play a significant role in the design of solar panels.The semitransparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor，thus resulting in better sol

25、ar efficiency.Additionally，substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturers improve their carbon footprint and lower the cost.They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufacturing process so that the transparent material is cost-effective

26、 to make and easy to use.1、What does the underlined part“that feature”in Paragraph 1 refer to?ACheap. BDurable. CSustainable. DTransparent.2、Which of the following correctly shows the process in which the transparent wood is made?Dip the wood into a polymer. Adjust the amount of the polymer.Make the

27、 wood lignin-free. Bake the wood for some time.A BC D3、Which of the following is true according to the text?ABerglund got the idea of transparent wood while making paper.BVarying the amount of the polymer changes the woods hardness.CThe transparent wood would be used only for homes and buildings.DTh

28、e cost of making the transparent wood still needs to be cut down.4、What is the last paragraph mainly about?AThe bright future of the transparent wood.BThe woods role in the design of solar panels.CThe disadvantages of the currently used glass.DSolar energy manufacturerscarbon footprint.23（8分）In summ

29、er the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge(排放) your bodys toxins(毒素) and recover your energy.One popular option is hot-stone massage(按摩). Therapists use smooth and heated stones, usually river roc

30、ks, to massage certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the bodys toxins.Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-s

31、tone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity (湿气) that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets

32、made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such a

33、s anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted.Using hot stones for healing dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose trad

34、emark is “LaStone Therapy”.The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.1、What do people use to release toxins in our body according to the text?ASwimming

35、in white water. BLiving in cold winter.CLying on the warm beds. DDischarging lots of sweat.2、What can we know from the text?AThere are no toxins and humidity in the body in summer.BSports have greater effects on the health than hot-stone massage.CUsing water of about 45 to wash the body is good for

36、the health.DPeople should take advantage of summer to improve their health.3、What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy?AIt was invented by Mary Nelson, an American.BIt successfully cured many people of cancer.CIt is popular with people because of its excellent effects.DIt can help people avoid

37、 sweating too much in hot summer.4、Which of the following could be the best title for the text?AHow to live comfortably in summerBA healthy and comfortable lifestyleCThe amazing functions of the hot-stone therapyDThe origin and development of the hot-stone therapy24（8分）Dogs may actually understand w

38、hat their owners are trying to say, according to a new study.Moreover, when dogs listen to someone talking, they may use brain regions that are equal to those that humans use to understand what others say, the researchers found.In other words, the new study shows that the brain mechanisms(结构）involve

39、d in the process of understanding human speech are similar in dogs and humans. This means that the brain mechanisms involved in understanding human speech are not unique to humans.To convey information through speech, people use both words and intonation (语调）, which is the way a persons voice rises

40、and falls to express an emotion or meaning, such as praise or disapproval. Similarly, to understand what someone is trying to say, people have to pay attention to both their words and their intonation.In the study, the researchers wanted to see whether dogs also pay attention to both words and inton

41、ation when trying to understand what a human is trying to say to them.To conduct the study, the researchers looked at 13 dogs. The researchers measured the dogs brain activity with a brain scanner while the dogs listened to recordings of their trainers speaking different combinations of words and in

42、tonations.The researchers found that the dogs paid attention to both the words and intonation when trying to understand human speech, just as humans do when they try to understand human speech. This finding means that dogs may understand both the words and the intonation that humans use when they ta

43、lk to dogs.The brain scans also suggested that the dogs used the left parts of their brains while trying lo understand words hut used the right parts of their brains while trying to understand intonation. Similarly, humans use the left parts of their brains while trying to understand the meanings of

44、 words and the right parts of their brains while trying to understand intonation.1、What is the best title for the passage?AYour Dog Understands What Youre SayingBA Big Challenge to Human BeingsCOur Best FriendsDogsDThe Dogs in the Future2、What do people use to convey information through speech?AEmot

45、ion or meaning. BVoice rising and falling.CWords and intonation. DPraise or disapproval.3、What can be inferred from the passage?ADogs are the cleverest animals.BIt is generally believed that the brain mechanisms involved in understanding human speech are unique to humans.CWith the brain mechanisms l

46、ike humans, dogs can speak as human do in the near future.DDogs are also good al learning languages.25（10分）When an ice cube melts, it creates a puddle (水坑). When an ice sheet (冰盖)melts, it raises sea levels. It sounds simple, but scientists have debated for decades whether both the Antarctic and Gre

47、enland ice sheets actually were shrinking, and how much that melting contributed to rising sea levels.Now, a new study has provided the best evidence of how the polar ice sheets are responding to our warming world. In the study, an international team of scientists looked at 20 years of data in the i

48、ce sheets collected by 10 satellite missions. The teams conclusion: The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets both are losing ice overall. The researchers also found that between 1992 and 2011, melt water from those shrinking ice sheets caused sea levels to rise by about 11 millimeters.Over the 19 year

49、s studied, the Greenland ice sheet lost 2.7 trillion metric tons of ice. The Antarctic ice sheet also shrank by about l.3 trillion metric tons. Previously, some scientists disagreed whether the Antarctic sheet, the largest mass of ice in the world, was shrinking or growing or neither.While the Earth

50、 is warming overall, the effect of climate change varies from region to region. Over the last 15 years, for example, scientists have something disagreed over how climate change has affected the polar ice sheets. Many studies found that the sheets lost a lot of ice and that not enough snow fell on th

51、e sheets to compensate for the loss. But other studies found that the loss of ice was balanced by the gain in snowfall.Richard Alley, a glacier scientist at Penn State University, said that many of those studies looked at different areas, and over different time periods. In addition, the studies did

52、nt all use the satellite data in the same way. Those differences made, it difficult to compare the results.The data in the new study matched time periods and areas. The study also combined measurements from kinds of satellites.1、Why does the author use a common-sense phenomenon as the beginning?ATo

53、present the reason for ice sheet melting.BTo show us the result of a scientific experiment.CTo give a simple example to introduce the topic.DTo present a common daily finding obvious to the readers.2、The researchers reached their conclusion by_.Aanalyzing the findings of former studiesBobserving the

54、 Antarctic and GreenlandCreferring to the data from satellitesDmaking measurements in the Antarctic and Greenland3、What does the underlined phrase compensate for in paragraph 4 refer to?ACut down.BLead toCBring about.DMake up for.4、Which of the following might be the best conclusion for the passage?

55、AIce sheets are shrinking due to global warming.BPeople are suffering from climate change.CRising sea levels makes people live in danger.DShrinking ice has nothing to do with sea levels.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项26（30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中
