    10．Let us suppose it is now about A．D.2060．Let's make believe it is about sixty years from now．Of course，things have changed and life is very different．
    Voyages to the moon are being made every day．It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe．At a number of scenic spots on the moon，many hotels have been built，the hotels are air--conditioned，naturally．So that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon．Every room has at least one picture window．Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old．
    What are people eating now？People are still eating food．They haven't yet started to take on their supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power．They may be some day．But many foods now come in pill form，and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants．
    Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago，most of our planet's surface has to be filled．The deserts are irrigated with water．Crops are no longer destroyed by pests．The harvest is always good．
    Farming，of course，is very highly developed．Very few people have to work on the farm．It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then．
    People are now largely vegetarians．You see，as the number of people increased，the number of animals decreased．Therefore，the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier in both our bodies and our minds，too，and we know the causes and cure of diseases and pain，and it is possible to get rid of disease．No one has to be ill any more．
    Such would be our life in 2060．
    66．What are the hotels on the moon used for in 2060？D
    A．Scientific experiments．
    B．People who have no houses．
    C．Astronauts．

    B．The people have no illness．
    C．The doctor don't know how to treat the diseases and pain．
    D．The people are less healthier in our bodies than in our minds．

    1．If you，a man，are looking through this，congratulations：you are a survivor （幸存者）．According to a survey，you are more than twice likely to die of skin cancer than a woman，and nine times more likely to die of AIDS．If you make it to the end of your natural term，about 78 years for men in Australia，you will die on average five years before a woman．
    　  There are many reasons for this．Men take more risks than woman and are more likely to drink and smoke-but perhaps more importantly，men don't go to the doctor．
    "Men aren't seeing doctors as often as they should．"says Dr．Gullotta，"This is particularly so for the over 40s，when diseases tend to strike．"Gullotta says a healthy man should visit the doctor every year or two．For those over 45，it should be at least once a year．Two months ago Gullotta saw a 50-year-old man who had delayed（延迟） doing anything about his smoker's cough for a year．"When I finally saw him it had already spread and he has since died from lung cancer．"he says．"Earlier finding and treatment may not have cured him，but it would have made him live longer．"
    　  According to a recent survey，95% of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year，compared to 70% of men in the same age group．
    "A lot of men think they are strong enough．While some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know．Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies．"Dr．Gullotta says．He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be found out by check-ups．Regular check-ups for men would place strain on the public purse，Gullotta says．"But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to cure the diseases．Besides，the final/highest cost is far greater：it is called premature death（过早死亡）．"
    49．From the first paragraph，we can know thatB．
    A．women are more likely to die of skin cancer
    B．men are more likely to get some deadly diseases
    C．men can live five years longer than women
    D．men who live long are very lucky
    50．What is a more important reason for man's death？C
    A．Men take more risks than women．
    B．Diseases tend to strike men easily
    C．Men don't go to doctors for check-ups．
    D．Men like drinking and smoking．
    51．Why does the author take a 50-old-man as an example？A
    A．To realize the importance of disease prevention．
    B．To show he could have avoided death．
    C．To prove smoking leads to lung cancer．
    D．To think highly of the doctor's work．
    52．What can be drawn from the last paragraph？D
    A．Treatment would cost a lot of money．
    B．Cars are more valuable than health．
    C．Men are brave to accept the reality．
    D．Check-ups are necessary and worthwhile．

    18．The Galapagos Islands are in the Pacific Ocean，off the western coast of South America They are a rocky，lonely spot，but they are also one of the most unusual places in the world．One reason is that they are the home of some of the last giant tortoises（乌龟）left on earth．
         Weighing hundreds of pounds，these tortoises go slowly around the rocks and sand of the islands．Strangely，each of these islands has its own particular kinds of tortoises．There are seven different kinds of tortoises on the eight islands，and each kind is slightly different from the other．
         Hundreds of years ago，thousands of tortoises were around these islands．However，all that changed when people started landing there．When people first arrived in 1535，crews would seize as many tortoises as they could．They would roll the tortoises onto their backs when they were brought onto the ships．The tortoises were completely helpless once on their backs，so they could only lie there until used for soups and stews．Almost 100，000 tortoises were carried off in this way．
         The tortoises faced other problems，too．Soon after the first ships，settlers arrived，bringing pigs，goats，donkeys，dogs and cats．A11 0f these animals ruined life for the tortoises．Donkeys and goats ate all the plants that the tortoises usually fed on，while the pigs，dogs and cats ate thousands of baby tortoises each year．Within a few years，it was hard to find any tortoise eggs-or even any baby tortoises．
         Finally，in the 1950s，scientists decided that something must be done．The first part of their plan was to remove as many cats，dogs and other animals as they could from the islands．Next，they tried to make sure that more baby tortoises would be born； This slow，hard work continues today，and，thanks to it，the number of tortoises is now increasing every year．Perhaps these wonderful animals will not disappear after all

    15．While many Chinese overseas artists are switching to other more profitable fields，Huang Shanye，a painter of the Zhuang ethnic group，stands out as an exception．His art has gradually earned him fame over the course of his more than 20 years in the United States．He was even able to leave behind his steady job as an art teacher and fully devote himself to what he describes as a pursuit（追求） of beauty．
    The common theme of Huang's many works lies in the combination of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques．"I apply Chinese calligraphy（书法），paper cutting，facial makeup of Peking Opera--all the things that I can find in traditional Chinese culture--to Western oil painting，"Huang said at an exhibition held recently in his home county of Montgomery，Maryland in the US，where friends and neighbors had come to view some of his work．
    One of Huang's works in the show，which had been featured on the exhibition's flier（广告传单），served as a good example．Titled In Harmony，the painting shows two green dragons facing one another on a golden plate--a characteristic of Chinese tradition．Huang decorated the surface with the words"peace"and"dragon"，both in Chinese and in English．Michele Cohen，director of the Betty Mae Kramer Gallery，pointing to Huang's In Harmony，says："I think this work really shows how an artist can combine one tradition with another，and it really comes out in a mixed form．"
    In 1998，American composer Silas Huff met Huang at an exhibition and was moved by Huang's sketch Tapestry of Dreams，which was later realized into a large-scale work consisting of a dozen 1-by-1-meter panels of paintings describing the traditions and longings of Huang's people．
    Inspired by the work，Huff composed a 25-minute symphony（交响乐），Spring Song Festival，made up of Chinese folk melodies．Ten years later when Huff and Huang reconnected，Huff was able to bring two ballet schools on board and create a ballet based on the symphony．The work was performed at LaGuardia Performing Art Center in New York in the spring of 2009，with Huang's Tapestry of Dreams as a background．
    64．What is the theme of Huang's many works？A
    A．The combination of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques．
    B．The difference between traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques．
    C．The advantages of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques．
    D．The disadvantages of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques．
    65．We can inferC．
    A．Huff composed a 25-minute symphony，Spring Song Festival after he arrived in China．
    B．Huff composed a 25-minute symphony，Spring Song Festival because he graduated in China．
    C．Huff composed a 25-minute symphony，Spring Song Festival，because of Huang's work．
    D．Huff composed a 25-minute symphony，Spring Song Festival because of money．
    66．Which is the best title of the passage？A
    A．A Pursuit of Beauty
    B．The Life of an Artist
    C．True Friends
    D．The Differences of Art
    67．Michele Cohen，director of the Betty Mae Kramer Gallery，A．
    A．thinks highly of Huang's In Harmony．

    2．We had been living our valley for sixteen months when we first realized the dangers that could exist．It was the year when the storms came early，before the calendar even hinted at winter，even before November was out．（71）GSoon snow began to fall．Within a day it lay some 15 centimeters deep．It almost completely blocked our lane and made the streamside path slippery and dangerous．But on the neighboring heights the snow was much deeper and stayed for longer．Up there the wind blasted fiercely．Deeply in our valley we felt only sudden gusts of wind：trees swayed but the branches held firm．
    And yet we knew that there was reason for us to worry．The snow and wind were certainly inconvenient but they did not really trouble us greatly（72）B．It reminded us of what could have occurred if circumstances had been different，if the flow of water from the hills had not，many years before，been controlled，held back by a series of dams．（73）C
    Day after day，we watched furious clouds pile up high over the hills to the west．Sinister grey clouds extended over the valleys．They twisted and turned，rising eastwards and upwards，warning of what was to come．We had seen enough of the sky； now we began to watch the river，which every day was becoming fuller and wilder．
    The river seemed maddened as the waters poured almost horizontally down to its lower stretches．（74）DIt was far deeper than we'd ever seen it so near our home，lunging furiously at its banks．For three days we prayed that it would stay below its wall（75）E．

    A．It was the river，the Ryburn，which normally flowed so gently，that threatened us most．
    B．The great power of all this water prevents us from believing ourselves to be completely safe in our home．
    C．In a short time the snow started to melt．
    D．Just a couple of meters from our cottage，the stream seemed wild beneath the bridge．
    E．Our prayer were answered as the dam held and the waters began to subside．
    F．They grew so strong that we couldn't control it．
    G．Until then，we had felt safe and sheltered in our valley．
