If scientists are       , most of the Maldives will be covered with water in years.
    Last October, Maldivian President Mohamed Nasheed and his cabinet（内阁）held the world’s first underwater cabinet meeting to make the world         the terrible results from global warming to their own country. In December, he         at the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference（大会） in Copenhagen, trying to ask for help from the world for        country. The president even has a         to buy a new homeland and move his country and people to a new place.

    试题分析：这篇短文表达的是地处印度洋的世界海拔最低的国家——马尔代夫，由于全球变暖而面临在100年内被海水淹没而消失。因此，近年来世界上大批游客蜂拥至此。马尔代夫国家政府和人民在为本国人民的未来谋求出路，但它的命运掌握在全世界人民的手里。我们应该思考，怎样才是真正帮助这个小国。
    小题1:B考查名词及语境的理解。Scientists科学家；tourists游客； presidents总统； doctors医生。根据前句“马尔代夫是世界上最美丽的国家之一。”逻辑上自然会是“每年，数百万游客去那里欣赏美丽的风景。”因此，答案选B。
    小题2:C考查疑问词及语境的理解。Who谁；How怎样；Why为什么；When什么时候。前句“在最近几年，越来越多的人想要去参观”，后句“因为这个小小的岛国……”，根据前后句的逻辑意思，可知选C。
    小题3:A考查词组意思及语境的理解。in trouble有麻烦，困境中；for ever永远；as usual像平常一样；all right没关系，好的。根据后句的意思“科学家说，如果发生全球变暖，这个国家将会在100年内下沉到大洋里。”因此，可以判断这个国家将会有麻烦了。故选A。
    小题4:B考查动词及语境的理解。Disappears消失；happens发生；misses丢失，思念；continues继续。本句意思是“科学家说，如果发生全球变暖，这个国家将会在100年内下沉到大洋里。”根据句意可知选B。
    小题5:C考查情态动词及语境的理解。Can能，会；should应该；might可能，会；must必须，一定。对于这个岛国会不会在2100年前消失，我们不能作出非常肯定的判断，只能作假设。本句的意思是“那意味着马尔代夫可能会在2100年前就已经消失了。”这是一种虚拟语气的表达方式。答案是C。
    小题6:B考查动词及语境的理解。 Lives生活，居住；lies位于，躺； jumps跳；arrives到达。根据本句的意思应该是“马尔代夫位于印度洋里。”lie可以表示国家、城市、村庄、学校等地方的位置。故选B。
    小题7:C 考查形容词及语境的理解。Highest最高的；high高的； lowest最低的；low低。本句的后半部分提供了解释“它的最高点只有海拔2.4米。”可知前句应该是“它是地球上最低的国家。”故选C。
    小题8:B考查词组意思及语境的理解。Instead of代替；Because of因为；With the help of借助于……；Thanks for因……而感谢。前半句Greenhouse gas emissions的意思是“温室气体排放”，后句的意思是“到2100年，全球的气温和海平面将会上升9-88cm”。两句之间的逻辑关系应该是因果关系。因此选B。
    小题9:D考查介词及语境的理解。Both两个都；from从……；during在……其间；between在……（两者）之间。本句的意思是“……在9至88cm之间。”both 9cm and 88cm“9cm和88cm都”; from 后搭配to; between 9cm and 88cm“在9cm和88cm之间”符合句子意思。故选D 。
    小题10:B考查形容词及语境的理解。Wrong错误的；correct正确的；helpful有帮助的； dangerous危险的。本句的意思是“如果科学家的话是……的，那么这些年后马尔代夫的大部分地方将会被水覆盖。”根据意思可知选B。
    小题11:C考查动词及语境的理解。Get得到，获得；guess猜，猜出；realize认识到，意识到；expect期待。全句比较长，held the world’s first underwater cabinet meeting这部分的意思是“召开了世界上第一次水底内阁会议”，the terrible results from global warming to their own country这部分的意思是“由全球变暖而给他们自己的国家带来的恶劣后果”。那这次会议要使全世界“认识到”这一点。根据句意得出选C。
    小题12:B 考查动词及语境的理解。Served服务，服侍； spoke讲话；worked工作； sang歌唱。本句意思是“十二月，他（总统）在哥本哈根召开的联合国2009年度世界气候变化大会上讲话，”故选B。
    小题13:A考查物主代词。His他的；their他们的；its它的；your你的。句意是“……试图呼吁世界对他的国家提供帮助。”因此选A。
    小题14:C考查名词及语境的理解。Task任务； problem问题； plan计划； notice注意。本句意思是“总统甚至有一个……要买一个新的家园，把他的国家和人民搬迁到一个新的地方。”由此得知此处可以填“计划”。故选C。
    小题15:D考查名词及语境的理解。Tourists游客；place地方； island 岛屿； sea海洋。本句意思是“马尔代夫政府一直在做他们力所能及的一切事来战胜海洋。”而不是战胜其它的东西。故选D。

    Do you like to sit in front of the computer and play computer games hour after hour? Have you ever thought of what that may be doing to your health? More and more children are becoming overweight(肥胖的) and growing less creative because they spend too much time in front of the computer according to a survey.
    Last week Child Protective Services(儿童保护组织)in America organized an activity. The aim of the activity was to encourage children to do some outdoor activities instead of playing computer games at home. Many American children spend about 1,000 hours a year playing computer games — more time than they spend in school. As a result, they are overweight. Some of them have very poor eyesight, and they can’t see clearly.
    Everyone should pay attention to his health and try to keep healthy. The doctor says that the longer children play computer games, the more overweight they may become. And the junk food children eat while they’re playing computer games makes the weight problem more serious.
    To keep fit, children need to take exercise regularly, play outside with friends, and explore the world around them. Can you spend two weeks without playing computer games? It might be difficult for computer lovers, but why not have a try?
    小题1:Children may become______ if they play computer games all day.
    A．much youngerB．much lighterC．less creativeD．less careful

    A．less than 1,000B．more than 1,200C．about 1,500D．about 2,000
    小题3:The underlined word “eyesight” means “______” in Chinese.
    A．凝聚力B．想象力C．记忆力D．视力
    小题4:What can we learn from the passage?
    A．Playing computer games has caused some health problems.
    B．Playing computer games can make children cleverer and more creative.
    C．Child Protective Services in America organized an activity for parents.
    D．Child Protective Services asked children to study at home and not to play outdoors.

    It’s interesting that the arrival of snow has a different effect on people in different countries. For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others it is a catastrophe (灾难) or even a wonder.
    There are countries between these two extremes (极端) that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities(数量) every year. Britain is one such country, for which the arrival of snow quite simply creates problems. Within hours of the first snowfall, however light, roads are blocked, trains and buses stop in the middle of traffic. Normal communications are affected as well, telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. Almost within hours, there are also shortages(不足) -- bread, vegetables and other things -- not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened, and go out to store up these commodities (日用品), “just for fear that something bad should happen.”
    Why then does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, Austrians and Canadians don’t have such problems. It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow ploughs and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy some ploughs is that they are only used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education or helping the old.
    小题1:According to the writer, Britain is a country____.
    A．which has regular snowB．which is not well prepared for snow
    C．for which snow is not a problemD．for which snow is a wonder
    小题2:The arrival of snow in Britain affects all of the following except____
    A．trafficB．communicationC．food suppliesD．service quality
    小题3:After a few hours’ snowing there are often shortages of food because______
    A．shops have closed downB．people buy as much as they can
    C．farmers can’t produce any moreD．people eat more vegetables in winter
    小题4:The first reason that the British don’t buy snow ploughs is that______
    A．spreading salt is good enoughB．old people need more money
    C．snow ploughs are not used oftenD．the hospital is more important
