If you enjoyed the spring-like sunshine over the weekend and thought the weather has finally turned a corner, you’re sadly mistaken.
Chilly (寒冷的) days and grey clouds are forecast for the week—making it far too early to pack away the winter woollies.
Temperatures will struggle to rise above zero at night and fail to make double figures during the day.
People enjoy the spring sunshine in Sefton Park, Aigburth, Liverpool. Forecasters have predicted a return to chilly weather this week.
Met Office forecaster Charlie said, “It was a nice, dry, bright weekend in many parts and Monday is going to be a similar affair for many.”
“Temperatures will be between 5℃and 8℃, which is below average for the start of spring.”
The sun will disappear from the south of the country after today, with dry but cloudy conditions forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday.
Wednesday will be warmest of the three, with temperatures peaking at 9℃. But this is still two degrees below the March average for the district.
Overnight, temperatures will drop sharply, with lows of minus 3℃for the next three nights.
“It will generally stay on the cold side of average,” said Mr. Powell.
The March misery comes at the end of the coldest winter for more than 30 years.
Temperatures in December, January and February struggled to stay above zero, with the UK’s average 1.5℃, making it the deepest freeze since 1978—79.
It claimed there was just a one-in-seven chance of a cold December to February.
The agency also sadly predicted a “barbecue summer”, saying it was “quite optimistic” that it would be warmer and drier than average.
Following the two mistakes, the Met Office has dropped its long-range seasonal forecasts and will instead publish a monthly prediction for Britain, updated once a week.
In its defense, it says that while short-term forecasts are extremely accurate, Britain’s size and geographical position makes long-term predictions much more challenging.
It also points out that it gave warning of any heavy falls of snow this winter.
60. According to the passage, the weather on Tuesday in the south might be _______.
A. dry but cloudy B. sunny but chilly C. sunny and warm D. cloudy and chilly
61. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. British people can put away their winter clothes now.
B. The Met Office has shortened its forecast range.
C. The weather forecast becomes more and more accurate.
D. The agency was quite confident of long-term predictions.
62. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The big chill isn’t over yet B. A warm spring finally arrives
C. A heavy snow is on the way D. The Met Office drops forecasts
63. From the passage, we can conclude ________.
A. the weather report is more and more important
B. British people become worried about bad weather
C. Britain has just experienced a very freezing winter
D. The Met Office can always predict any heavy snow falls accurately

第二节：语法填空(共10小题，每小题l．5分，满分l5分)
阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中的词语的适当形式填空。
Long before, there was a large mountainside, where rested an eagle's nest with four large eagle eggs. One day 31 earthquake rocked the mountain, causing one of the eggs to roll down the mountain to a chicken farm 32 (locate) in the valley below. The chickens were kind enough to care for the eagle's egg, and an old hen volunteered to nurture (哺育) and raise the large egg.
One day, the egg hatched and a beautiful eagle was born. Sadly, 33 , the eagle was raised to be a chicken. Soon, the eagle believed he was nothing more 34 a chicken. The eagle loved his present family, but his spirit cried out 35 more. While playing on the farm one day, the eagle happened to notice a group of mighty eagles soaring in the skies. "Oh," the eagle cried, "I wish I could soar like those birds."
The chickens roared with 36 (laugh), “You cannot soar with those birds. You are a chicken and chickens do not soar."
The eagle continued staring at his real family up above, 37 (dream) that he could be with them. Each time the eagle would let his dreams 38 (know), he was told it couldn't be done. That is 39 the eagle learned to believe. The eagle, after time, stopped dreaming and continued to live like a chicken. Finally, after a long life as a chicken, the eagle passed away.
You become what you believe you are. So, if you ever dream of becoming an eagle, follow 40 dreams... not the words of a chicken.

C
An oasis (绿洲) is an island of life in an ocean of temperature extremes．Any oasis always contains one or more springs Oases make it possible to survive through the desert．In large deserts such as the Sahara．towns are located around sources of water such as oases and rivers．
What causes an oasis? An oasis is actually a spot in the desert where the altitude is low enough that the water table is fight below the surface，resulting in the presence of springs．Even in a desert, it rains occasionally，and this produces a water table just above the bedrock，usually several hundred feet below the surface．Sand is very porous (可渗透的)，so most water runs right
through it and down to the bedrock．
Deserts consist of many millions of tons of sand．There is only one natural force capable of moving it in noticeable amounts：the wind．Although，in an average dust storm，ten cubic feet of air only holds about an ounce of sand，a cubic mile of air can move about 4,600 tons of it，leading to erosion (侵蚀)．A severe storm is capable of moving as much as 100 million tons of sand and dust．
In certain areas where large quantities of sand are moved by storms，erosion digs all the way down to the water table，putting it just beneath the surface Seeds planted in the ground there are capable of extending roots into the moist land，producing an oasis．
Sometimes．the oasis produced by the wind can be very large when vast tracts of desert are wiped clean by storms．The great Kharga oasis in the Sahara，for example，is over 100 miles long and 12 to 50 miles in width. The oasis was produced when erosion caused the edges of the hollow places to sink down to the water table.
63．What does “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to_______．
A．erosion B．water table C．sand D．storm
64．How many conditions of the oasis formation are mentioned in the passage without considering
The wind and seeds?
A．3 B．4 C．5 D．6
65．We can infer from the passage ________．
A．there is at least one spring on an oasis
B．the bedrock is usually just right below the surface
C．the great Kharga oasis is the biggest oasis in the world
D．the great Kharga oasis is at a low altitude
66．In the last paragraph，the author mentions the great Kharga oasis as an example to_______．
A．introduce the great oasis to the readers
B．tell how the oasis was produced by rain
C．show the oasis produced by the wind can be very large
D．tell it’s easy to form oases in the desert after storms

If you look for a book as a present for a child, you will be spoiled for choice even in a year when there is no new Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling’s wizard is not alone: the past decade has been a harvest for good children’s books, which has set off a large quantity of films and in turn led to increased sales of classics such as The Lord of the Rings.
Yet despite that, reading is increasingly unpopular among children. According to statistics, in 1997 23% said they didn’t like reading at all. In 2003, 35% did. And around 6% of children leave primary school each year unable to read properly.
Maybe the decline is caused by the increasing availability（可利用性）of computer games. Maybe the books boom（繁荣）has affected only the top of the educational pile. Either way, Chancellor Gordon Brown plans to change things for the bottom of the class. In his pre-budget（预算） report, he announced the national project of Reading Recovery to help the children struggling most.
Reading Recovery is aimed at six-year-olds, who receive four months of individual daily half- hour classes with a specially trained teacher. An evaluation earlier this year reported that children on the scheme made 20 months’ progress in just one year, whereas similarly weak readers without special help made just five months’ progress, and so ended the year even further below the level expected for their age.
International research tends to find that when British children leave primary school they read well, but read less – often for fun than those elsewhere. Reading for fun matters because children who are keen on（热衷） reading can expect lifelong pleasure and loving books is an excellent indicator（指示物）of future educational success. According to the OECD, being a regular and enthusiastic reader is of great advantage.
1.Which of the following is true of Paragraph 1?
|
A．Many children’s books have been adapted from films. |
|
B．Many high-quality children’s books have been published. |
|
C．The sales of classics have led to the popularity of films. |
|
D．The sales of presents for children have increased. |
2.Statistics suggested that ___.
|
A．the number of top students increased with the use of computers. |
|
B．a decreasing number of children showed interest in reading. |
|
C．a minority of primary school children read properly. |
|
D．a large percentage of children read regularly. |
3.What do we know about Reading Recovery?
|
A．An education of it will be made sometime this year. |
|
B．Weak readers on the project were the most hardworking. |
|
C．It aims to train special teachers to help children with reading. |
|
D．Children on the project showed noticeable progress in reading. |
4.Reading for fun is important because book-loving children ____.
|
A．takes greater advantage of the project. |
|
B．shows the potential to enjoy a long life. |
|
C．is likely to succeed in their education. |
|
D．would make excellent future researchers. |
5.The aim of this text would probably be ____.
|
A．to overcome primary school pupils’ reading difficulty. |
|
B．to encourage the publication of more children’s books. |
|
C．to remind children of the importance of reading for fun. |
|
D．to introduce a way to improve early childhood reading. |
