I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom completely lined with bookshelves, and most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (觀点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.

With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.

Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction. As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter—the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though second-hand, exciting experiences that I wouldn’t necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.

24. What can we infer about the author as a child?

A. He read what he had to.                                    B. He disliked watching TV.

C. He found reading very hard.                             D. He considered reading part of his life.

25. What does the underlined word “voice” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. An idea.                     B. A sound quality.        C. A way of writing.      D. A world to write about.

26. What is the main effect that reading has on the author?

A. It helps him to realize his dream.                       B. It opens up a wider world for him.

C. It makes his college life more interesting.         D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.

27. What can be the best title for the text?

A. Why Do I Read?       B. How Do I Read?       C. What Do I Read?       D. When Do I Read?

C

Travelers to the Arctic islands of Svalbard would find a rough, ice-hardened land, protecting polar bears in its frozen landscapes. This group of Norwegian islands is the land of the “midnight sun” with almost 24 hours of sunlight during the summer months. It is also home to one of the most important storage facilities in world farming — the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (種子库).

The seed vault was opened in 2008 in an effort to safeguard the world’s food supply for future generations. Svalbard is the perfect frozen environment to house seed samples (樣本), set inside an Arctic mountain at 130 meters above sea level, so it is unlikely to be flooded. Low humidity, geological stability, and the surrounding permafrost (冻土) can keep seed-keeping places cool, dry, and usable for centuries.

Seed gene (基因) banks from around the world have sent food crop seeds for safety in case a natural disaster or environmental damage destroys existing supplies. Worldwide there are more than 1,700 seed gene banks that store seeds locally and many choose to send back-up samples to facilities like the Svalbard’s vault.

There is space in the global vault for 4.5 million different crop varieties with each variety storing on average 500 seeds, meaning it can house 2.5 billion seeds. There are around one million seed samples from 80 organizations in the vault at present so there is a lot of spare space for the vegetables, grains, peas and beans that are banked annually. On top of that, there are valuable flowers from the Myanmar rain forests.

The largest numbers of samples in the vault are varieties of rice and wheat. The seed vault has been listed as one of the most influential projects of the past 50 years for its efforts. Seeds themselves are not kept for farmers or gardeners to grow produce. Their true value is as a genetic resource in plant upbringing to create new crop varieties.

28. What makes Svalbard suitable for a global seed vault?

A. Its eco-friendly tourism.                                    B. Its rich supplies of food.

C. Its favorable environment.                                 D. Its strong sunlight in winter.

29. Why do many seed gene banks send food crop seeds to the Svalbard’s vault?

A. To protect them from climate changes.             B. To exchange them for new crop seeds.

C. To make sure of the safety of food supplies.    D. To compare them with new crop varieties.

30. What can be inferred about the Svalbard’s vault from Paragraph 4?

A. It increases its crop varieties every year.           B. It stores seeds of different types.

C. It has little space for newcomers.                      D. It is costly for most organizations.

31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A. To explain how to store seeds safely.                B. To introduce an influential seed vault.

C. To seek supporters for world seed vaults.         D. To call on seed organizations to work together.

D

The loneliest chimp (黑猩猩) in the world just got the best surprise—a hug from a new friend. Ponso has been by himself for nearly three years, finding himself alone after his wife and children died on the island where they were abandoned (拋弃) by a medical testing company many years ago.

For years a nearby villager named Germain has been Ponso’s only company, visiting him so often to bring bananas and bread—the chimp’s only source of food on the tiny island. It was clear how much Ponso missed companionship when he was recently visited by Chimpanzee Conservation Centre Director Estelle Raballand. The chimp immediately embraced Estelle Raballand in a huge hug and laughed as she reached out for him, with his smile from ear to ear.

For those who know Ponso’s back story, his trust in humans might be surprising. Ponso was one of the 20 chimps, all between the ages of 7 to 11 years old, relocated to an island off the Ivory Coast after being used for testing by the New York Blood Centre. After the tests were completed, the lab reportedly sent the chimps to a string of islands, occasionally dropping off food and water because there was none in the chimps’ new homes.

Disease and hunger soon left only Ponso, his wife and their two children standing. But 8 years after being abandoned to the island, they died within days of each other and Ponso was now completely alone.

A group called SOS PONSO is trying to raise money for the poor lonely chimp, already achieving its goal of ₤20,000, all of which will be used for Ponso’s care.

32. What can we learn about the chimp Ponso from Paragraph 1?

A. He was abandoned by his family.                     B. He got food from the nearby village.

C. He is surprised to be on the island.                    D. He suffers from loneliness greatly.

33. How did Ponso feel when he saw Raballand?

A. Frightened.                B. Excited.                      C. Nervous.                     D. Curious.

34. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A. The chimps’ new home.                                 ;    B. Why Ponso was used for a test.

C. Why Ponso is on the island.                              D. The medical test about chimps.

35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. Many people show their care for Ponso.           B. A new home will be built for Ponso.

C. A new care centre will be built on the island.   D. More chimps will live in the island.

第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

根据短文内容,從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。

A study session with friends can be an excellent way to learn. If you make it a regular event (eg weekly), a study session can help you to fully understand difficult material, prepare for exams, and finally earn strong grades.

· Teach one another. One of the most effective ways to learn is actually to teach other people. This greatly benefits both the “teacher” as well as the whole group.

· Take quizzes (小测验). Another great aspect of working with a group is the ability to quiz one another. This means quizzing one another orally. Or, different members can create quizzes for different parts and give them to the other members to take.

· Share notes. Try exchanging the notes that you each took in class. When you put all of that together, you’ll walk away with a much stronger understanding of the material.

· Knowing what you don’t understand and putting that into a question for your group is an excellent exercise. The attempt (尝试) to answer each other’s questions as a group is great for every member as well as the group.

· Create a routine (常规). If you can make some kind of routine within your study session, you are likely to be more productive. You may have to try out different methods with your group to see what works for you.

A. It may take a little time.

B. Answer each other’s questions.

C. Three or four heads are better than one!

D. Accept the challenge and give the answer.

E. You can simply ask each other questions out loud.

F. Time will tell that the first routine works well with your group.

G. Try giving each member a different task and take turns teaching each other.

People need to vote to decide who will be their president. But humans aren’t the only creatures on Earth to vote. In fact, there are (variety) animals which also make group decisions. They just do differently for different reasons.

Instead of voting for a president, animals vote on where to live or when to hunt (狩猎). Take meerkats (海猫) for example. When (search) for food, the animals get together for protection from hunters. But when a meerkat wants to speed up the search, the animal will make a “move call”. If three or more meerkats make this call, an agreement to speed up can (reach).

African wild dogs also vote in groups. A group of scientists study the behavior of animals have found that the animals also vote to decide whether to hunt. How do the dogs vote for hunting? They sneeze (打喷嚏)! Whether the dogs will actually go for a hunt is decided by number of sneezes. The more the dogs sneeze, the (likely) it is that they will look for a meal.

Just like humans, animals don’t always agree with one another. But joining in group decisions (help) make sure of their (survive). It is extremely interesting (observe) how animals vote for a decision and stick together.
