    　  Life on land probably began about 430 million years ago, though it has stayed in the water for perhaps as much as 3,000 million years. When we think of the first thing on land, we probably think of strange animals coming out of the oceans, but in fact no animals could have been living if plants had not been on land first. Plants had to be on land before animals arrived. They supplied the first land animals with the surrounding and food necessity, since then, the plants, are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy.
    　　The first plants to stay out of the water were probably certain kinds of algae（海藻）which were followed by other plants that grew close to the ground and needed water in which to reproduce. Once the move to land had been made, however, evolution（进化）happened quickly. By the end of 100 million years, plants had developed their roots（根), and some had got tree -like forms since height was very important in gaining sunlight. About 300 million years ago, much of the world was covered with forests of huge trees. In most ways they were like modern trees. They had roots, leaves, wood, but mostly they had not developed seeds.
    59．The main idea of the first paragraph is ________.
    　　A. life on land probably began 430 years ago
    　　B. the first animal on land came from oceans
    　　C. there wouldn't have been animals without plants
    　　D. plants are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy
    60．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    　　A. Algae probably has stayed for more than 430 million years.
    　　B. It is impossible that algae might be the earliest plant on land.
    　　C. Plants get food from animals in the oceans.
    　　D. Evolution began after animals appeared on land.
    61．Plants with roots appeared about ________ million years ago.
    　　A. 430　　　　　B. 300　　　　　 C. 330　　　　　 D. 100
    62．According to the passage, ________ appeared earlier than ________.
    　　A. apples; oranges　　　　　　　　 B. oranges; apples
    　　C. oranges; roses　　　　　　　　　D. algae; wheat

    D
    Men usually want to have their own way. They want to think and act as they like. No one, however, can have his own way all the time. A man cannot live in society without considering the interests(利益) of others as well as his own interests. “Society” means a group of people with the same laws and the same way of life. People in society may make their own decisions, but these decisions ought not to be unjust(不公平) or harmful to others. One man’s decisions may so easily harm another person. For example, a motorist may be in a hurry to get to a friend’s house. He sets out, driving at full speed like a competitor in a motor race. There are other vehicles and also pedestrians (行人) on the road. Suddenly there is a crash. There are screams and confusion. One careless motorist has struck another car. The collision(碰撞) has injured two of the passengers and killed the third. Too many road accidents happen through the thoughtlessness of selfish drivers.
    We have governments, the police and the law courts to prevent or to punish such criminal acts. But in addition, all men ought to observe certain rules of conduct. Every man ought to behave with consideration for other men. He ought not to steal, cheat, or destroy the property(财产) of others. There is no place of this sort of behavior in a civilized society.
    1. A man cannot have his own way all the time because________.
    A. he may have no interest in other people
    B. he has to share the same interest with the people in the same society
    C. his decisions are always unjust         D. his decisions always harm other people
    2. According to the passage, people in a civilized society should usually______.
    A. be honest to each other                   B. be cautions in doing everything
    C. behave in a responsible way            D. punish criminal acts
    3. The purpose of this passage is to_________.
    A. tell people how to behave in society
    B. illustrate the importance of laws
    C. teach people how to prevent criminal acts
    D. persuade people not to make their own decisions
    4. It is implied that there will be fewer road accidents if_______.
    A. the drivers are more considerate(体贴的) of other people
    B. there are fewer cars or walkers in the street
    C. the motorists are not always in a hurry
    D. the passengers are calm but not confused before the accidents
    5. We can draw a conclusion that_______.
    A. the government should contribute more efforts
    B. the criminals should be more severely punished
    C. man should be more strict with himself
    D. man should have more and more similar interests

    阅读下面短文, 掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    Your parents have just told you the news­­—you’re moving to a new house. How in the world will you tell your friends?
    First, CALM DOWN.  36   a while to ­­­catch your breath and let the news sink in before you call your friends. Make   37   you have the whole story before you start telling people.
    38  friends who need to hear the news from you. Think about  39  you’d like to tell them, and when. A face-to-face talk may be the best way to let  40  frie-
    nds know, but the phone may be fine for others.   41  after school or on a weekend is good. You don’t want to drop big news like this on your friends during the school day.
    HOW SHOULD YOU START? Say something like, “I have some big news I want to share   42   you.” That will prepare your friend for what is going to come. Then say, “I’m    43  .” Tell him as many details as you know,  44   let him know how you feel about it.
    Each friend will have a different   45  to the news, so BE PREPARED. Some girls may   46  crying. But some may get   47  , some may get silly, and some may give you the   48   that they don’t care.   49  happens, be sure to talk to your friends if the things they do and say   50  your feelings.
    Ask friends not to tell anyone else   51  you say it’s OK. You could say, “Please don’t tell   52  until Monday.” That will give you a   53  to let close friends hear the news from you first.
    Ask your parents for help if you need it. A(n)   54  may be able to help you
    55   the right things to say and help you understand your friend’s reactions.

    B
    “Fingers were made before forks.” When a person gives up good manners, put aside knife and fork, and dives into his food, someone is likely to repeat that saying.
    The fork was an ancient agricultural tool, but for centuries no one thought of eating with it. Not until the eleventh century, when a young lady from Constantinople brought her fork to Italy, did the custom reach Europe.
    By the fifteenth century the use of the fork was wide-spread in Italy. The English explanation was that Italians were unwilling to eat food touched with fingers, “seeing all men’s fingers are not alike clean.
    Anyone who used a fork to eat with was laughed at in England for the next hundred years. Not until the late 1600’s did using a fork become a common custom.
    60. The custom of eating with a fork was ________.
    A. brought to Europe from America    B. begun when forks first invented

    Motorists used to listening to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.
    The Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads”, which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel.
    The concept works by using grooves(凹槽). They are cut at very specific intervals(间隔) in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes(音符).
    Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.
    Patent documents for the design describe it as notches “formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody-like tones”.
    There are three musical roads in central and northern Japan---one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda. He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer(推土机) before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.
    The optimal speed for melody road is 44 kph, but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.
    “You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,” wrote one Japanese blogger. “Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12 mph (20 kph) has a slow-motion effect, making you almost car-sick.”
    59. According to the passage, to create different notes, melody roads use ______.
    A. cars    B. grooves    C. spaces between internals    D. bulldozers
    60. We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is dependent on ______.
    A. how far the grooves are                B. how big the grooves are
    C. the number of the grooves              D. the speed of the car
    61. The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean ______.
    A. fastest      B. possible      C. best     D. suitable
    62. In order to hear the music well, you have to ______.
    A. drive very fast                       B. drive slowly
    C. open the window wide                D. keep the window closed

    To get an extra 14 years of life, don’t smoke, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, exercise regularly and drink alcohol in a proper amount．That is according to a study published this Monday in the Public Library of Science Medicine Journal．
    After tracking more than 20,000 people aged 45-79 years in the United Kingdom from about 1993-2007, Kay-Tee, Khaw of the University of Cambridge and his colleagues found that people who adopted these four healthy habits lived an average of 14 years longer than those who didn’t．
    “We’ve known for a long time that these behaviors are good things to do, but we’ve not seen this benefit before, ” said Susan Jebb, head of Nutrition and Health at Britain’s Medical Research Council．“The benefit was also seen regardless of whether or not people were fat and what social class they came from．”
    Study participants(参与者) scored a point each for not smoking, regular physical activity, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day and moderate alcohol intake．
    Public health experts said they hoped the study would inspire governments to introduce policies helping people to adopt these changes．But because the study only observed people rather than testing specific changes, it would be impossible to conclude that people who suddenly adopted these healthy behaviours would surely gain 14 years．
    “We can’t say that any person could gain 14 years by doing these things,” said Doctor Tim Armstrong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization．”The 14 years is an average across the population of what’s theoretically(理论上) possible．”
    “Most people know that things like a good diet matter and that smoking is not good for them”, Susan Jebb said, ”We need to work on providing people with much more practical support to help them change．”
    1．Which of the following doesn’t belong to the four healthy habits?
    A．Eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day．
    B．Doing proper exercise in the morning every day．
    C．Having a cigarette before going to bed every day．
    D．Drinking alcohol in the proper amount every day．
    2．We can learn from the passage that_____．
    A．the study observed people as well as tested specific changes
    B．Susan Jebb did not take part in the study
    C．there is no need for people under 45 adopt these good habits
    D．only those from first class can benefit from these healthy behaviours
    3．What can be inferred from the passage?
    A．Governments should take measures to help people change their bad habits．
    B．People aged 45-79 have bad habits in the United Kingdom．
    C．All the people are well aware of the harm of their bad habits．
    D．People have adopted the four healthy habits after knowing they’re good．
    4．What would be the best title for this passage?
    A．Smoking and Drinking Cuts You 14 Years
    B．Healthy Habits Could Gain You Extra 14 years
    C．A New Way of Keeping Healthy
    D．Smoking and Drinking Harms Your Health
