【3】difficulty
【4】was rising
【5】successfully
【6】A
【7】who
【8】where
【9】She
【10】to
【解析】
【1】考查现在分词做定语。had created 是句子的谓语动词,所以run应该用非谓语动词,根据句意river 和run之间是主动关系,故用现在分词做定语,此处填running 。
【2】从句部分是一般过去时态,所以主句部分也用一般过去时态,故此出填slipped。
【3】根据句意:Nancy 严重受伤,只能极其困难地走路。great 修饰名词,difficult 是形容词,故填名词difficulty。
【4】根据句意可知:水在上升。因为讲的是过去的事情,故用过去进行时态was rising。
【5】副词修饰动词,succeed 是动词,所以用它的副词形式successfully。
【6】根据句意可知:一架直升飞机将一名医生放下。故此处填A。一架直升飞机。
【7】a doctor做先行词,所以后面应是who引导的非限制性定语从句。故填who。
【8】the school gym 做先行词,表示地点,根据句意可知此处因该是where引导的非限制性定语从句,故填where。
【9】句意是:她是Nancy 丢失的19头牛之一。此处用拟人的写法故填She 。
【10】固定搭配owe…to..把---归功于---,故此处填to。

【题目】Green invaders are taking over America. Not invaders from space, but plants! You might not think of plants as dangerous, but in this case they are threatening nature’s delicate food chain.
The invaders are plants brought here from other countries to make gardens and yards look pretty. Ever since people started to arrive on America’s shores, they have carried along trees, flowers, and vegetables from other places. Now there are so many of those plants, they are crowding out the native plants that have lived here since before human settlers arrived.
And that’s a problem, says Dr. Doug Tallamy. He’s insect expert at the University of Delaware. He explains that almost all the plant-eating insects in the United States are specialized, which means they eat only certain plants. Monarch butterfly caterpillars(幼虫),for example, dine on milkweed. If people cut down milkweed and replace it with another plant, the butterflies will not have the food source that they need to survive.
But the trouble doesn’t stop there. When insects can’t get the right plants to eat and they die off, then the birds don’t have enough bugs for their meals. Tallamy points out that almost all migrating birds depend on insets to feed their young.
“We cannot let the plants and animals around us disappear.” says Tallamy, “The way to preserve them is to give them food to eat. But when we plant non-native plants, we are clobbering the food chain, because then we don’t have the insects the birds need to live.”
Fewer of the right plants mean fewer bugs, and fewer bugs mean fewer birds. And that’s bad for the Earth, because we need a variety of living things to keep the planet healthy and beautiful.
The good news is, garden centers sell native plants. “Just Google ‘native plants’ and your location, and you can find out which plants really belong where you live,” says Tallamy
【1】How did green invades arrive at America?
A.They fell down from space.
B.They floated to the America’s shores.
C.They were brought in from foreign countries
D.They has lived here since human settlers arrived
【2】According to Dr.Tallamy, which of the followings about the insects in the US is NOT true?
A.Almost all the plant-eating insects in a place eat certain plants.
B.Monarch butterfly caterpillars can’t survive without milkweed.
C.If insects can’t eat the right plants, they will find another one.
D.The insects’ death will greatly affect the migrating birds’ survival
【3】The underlined word “clobber” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _________.
A.protect B. damage C. create D. collect
【4】We can know whether a plant is native by _________.
A.Googling on the Internet B. asking Dr. Doug Tallamy
C. looking up in books D. searching in garden
【5】What is the best title of the pass age?
A.Green invaders——local living things
B. Green invaders——dangerous food chain
C.Green invaders——environmental protectors
D. Green invades——threat to local nature

【题目】Consumer electronics once again topped the list of the most wanted gifts this holiday season. “Seventy-six percent of consumers who plan to buy holiday gifts say that they will spend money buying at least one technology product; definitely a solid vote of confidence for technology.” Steve Koenig is with the Consumer Electronics Association. He says the group’s latest research also shows that Americans this year are spending more on technology products.
“Here in 2012, $252 on average–the technology spend for consumers this year.” From tablet computers to smart phones, American shoppers have been lining up to get the newest and coolest electronic devices on the market. There are more choices today than ever before. “It’s kind of hard to make a decision.”
Tablet computers are one of the best-selling products this year. Brian Tong is Senior Editor of CNET.com. The website reports on tech news and examines the latest electronic products. He says the Apple iPad Mini is one of the most popular tablets. Its starting price is $329. One of Apple’s biggest competitors is the Google Nexus 7. It starts at $199.
“The hardware inside is more powerful than what’s in the iPad Mini, but also it offers you a lot of things like maps that work better than Apple’s maps.” Brian Tong says there is one reason why people may like the iPad Mini more than the Nexus 7. “If you just want to read books and surf the Internet, you don’t really need to get an iPad Mini, but if you want the largest group of apps that’s where the iPad and Apple’s ecosystem shines the most.”
Elman Chacon is with the electronics store Best Buy. He says another hot product this season is smart cameras. They connect to the Internet through Wi-Fi. This makes it easy for users to email or upload photographs directly from the camera. “You can literally take a picture, upload it into your Facebook in a matter of seconds. These things are pretty cool because they do a lot of things.”
Streaming media boxes also connect to the Internet. People are able to watch web content such as movies and YouTube videos on their televisions. Another popular item is wireless speaker systems. The newest ones work with any device that has Bluetooth technology, including smart phones, laptops and tablets.
With the growing popularity of Internet shopping, many consumers will visit a store first to look at a product, and then go online to find it at a lower price. Stores like Best Buy understand that and they want to stay competitive.
“We have something called the perfect match promise which means if you buy a certain device and you find it cheaper within 30 days we’ll go ahead and price match that for you.” Elman Chacon said.
【1】According to Brain Tong, ________.
A. the Apple’s iPad Mini is more suitable for enthusiastic readers
B. the hardware in iPad Mini is more advanced than that in Nexus 7
C. iPad Mini is more eco-friendly

【题目】Do you know what really troubles me? For some reason, words with silent letters have always bothered me. For example, consider these words: know, design, island, school, wrist, naughty, and salmon. All of these words have at least one letter that is not typically pronounced, and these words are just a very small part of words with silent letters in them.
Some words are even worse, consider this word: colonel. Not only are some letters not pronounced, but letters that are not even there are pronounced.
Even foreign languages, especially French, are guilty of this needless complexity and confusion. I know there must be some main historical reasons why the words are spelled and pronounced the way they are, but that does not mean bad traditions must continue to survive. Especially if they are no longer logical.
Unfortunately, there is very little that anyone can do for it, because there’s no group of people who can change or have the right to change the English language for everyone. However, the only thing we can do is make changes in the way we talk and write in hopes that it_____For example, I pronounce the letter “l” in salmon on purpose to make people annoyed and to sound more different or complicated. I even pronounce colonel the correct or French way.
I can only hope these two minor changes to the English language make sense to you, and you will help to keep up these minor changes forever in your everyday life.
【1】Which of the following is the main reason for silent letters?
A. French language. B. Historical reasons.
C. Some linguists D. Bad traditions.
【2】The underlined phrase “catches on” probably means “________”.

C. follows the fashions D. doesn’t fall behind
