A.as a resultB.as it is
C.believe it or notD.generally speaking

分析 一项新的研究称:"人们普遍认为女人喜欢聊天,但不管你信不信,男人比女人更喜欢聊天."

解答 答案:C
A. as a result 结果,因此; B. as it is 实际上,事实如此; C. believe it or not信不信由你,不管你信不信;  D. generally speaking 一般说来;根据"men chat more than women do"描述的是一种不为人们所熟知的情况可知,此处的意思应是:信不信由你,不管你信不信;故选C.

点评 本题考查的是省略句believe it or not的用法,它的完整的表达应是:(Whether you) believe it or not;做本题时,需要通过分析句意,并结合对各选项中的省略句以及插入语的理解,从而选出正确答案.

15.When you think of tree frogs,heat and rainforests come to mind.While the equatorial regions are home to many tree frogs,including the popular and colorful red-eyed tree frogs,the northeastern United States is home to gray tree frogs.
If you live in an area with gray tree frogs,you are more likely to hear them than see them.Gray tree frogs will call from up high during the day and well into August; many people mistake their calls for birdcalls.Their color can be different,even with the same tree frog at different times of the day.Younger tree frogs are sometimes green instead of gray.
If you're trying to find and observe these guys,you might notice that they will call loudly until you get close enough to find their location.Then they will go silent,becoming almost invisible in the leaves.They like to lie close to the foot of trees,but unless they are low down they can't easily be found.
One tree frog can eat 100 mosquitoes in a moment.Sometimes at night during the chorus,they are a little easier to find as there are many frogs in the water,and they are usually"love drunk".They can be picked up and will continue to call from your hand.In fact,calling is a big deal for gray tree frogs.It takes a lot of energy,and males will often have to take a night off to recover after spending time in the chorus.Females seem to prefer the long calls to the short ones,and will head in the direction of those calls.
So next time you hear that"bird"calling from the trees in the summer,take a closer look and listen.You may find tree frogs closer to your homes than you think!

60.Which of the following is the main idea of the first paragraph?A
A.Nesting areas for tree frogs.       B.Different types of tree frogs.
C.Brief introduction of rainforests.  D.Description of the equatorial regions.
61.It is implied in the text thatC.
A.tree frogs live in the areas of the equatorial regions
B.tree frogs can eat a lot of mosquitoes within a minute
C.tree frogs'color can be different during the time of their growth
D.you can hear tree frogs calling from the tree in the summer
62.If you hold a tree frog in your hand,what will happen to it?B
A.It will make a loud cry. B.It will continue calling.
C.It will change its color.  D.It will go silent.
63.What does the author suggest doing while hearing the tree frogs calling?D
A.Living in an area with tree frogs.   B.Getting close enough to find their location.
C.Watching them at night in the water. D.Taking a close look and listening.

16.When you think of the books that are read and taught in high schools across the US,what are the first titles that come to mind?The Great Gasby,Lord of the Flies.The Catcher in the Rye and of Of Mice and Men probably flood your memory.The authors of these books have something in common:They were all white men.
The truth is,many reading lists are short on female and minority authors.And some argue  that teaching the literary canon(文学经典)to students who no longer find relevance(相关性)    in the issues presented will fail to interest teens and ultimately rum them away from reading.
"When we think about summer reading books or adding a new book to a course,we're often looking for women or people of color,"said Scott Campbell,an English teacher at New Trier High School,who admired there's a gap in the curriculum where minority writers should be.
"Women a hundred or so years ago were not encouraged or expected that they might write,this is just one of the after-effects of male domination",Campbell explained.
"I think book lists in schools are sexist(性别歧视的),but I don't think it's the schools'fault,"said Jones from a high schoo1."I think it's because we still think good literature is only    written by white males,which simply isn't true.I do see,though,that teachers are trying to change mat."
Teachers at Hancock High School are doing the similar job.Hancock curricula include books and concepts teachers believe to be more culturally relevant to their students.
Hancock junior Sandra Rodriguez said she likes her school's selections that have replaced  some to the traditional high school reads.
32.Why does the writer mention some books in the first paragraph?A
A.To show these books arc mostly written by white men.
B.To advise students to read these books.
C.T0 comment on the authors.
D.To show these books are classic.
33.Why does Scott Campbell choose books written by women or people of color?B
A.These books are better in content.
B.There are few of such books in the curriculum.
C.He prefers these books.
D.Students like these books more.
34.How does Jones think of the book lists in school?D
A.They are not proper and school should be accused.
B.They are written by white men and are better than others.
C.They are more suit able for boys.
D.They should be changed.
35.What does"the similar job"in the sixth paragraph refer to?B
A.Changing the teaching method of literature.
B.Adding more culturally relevant books to the curriculum.
C.Arousing students'passion for reading.
D.Helpin g students read more books.

13.Tom appeared on the sidewalk with a bucket of whitewash and a longhandled brush.He stopped by the fence in front of the house where he lived with his aunt Polly.He looked at it,and all joy left him.The fence was long and high.He put the brush into the whitewash and moved it along the top of the fence.He repeated the operation.He felt he could not continue and sat down.
He knew that his friends would arrive soon with all kinds of interesting plans for the day.
They would walk past him and laugh.They would make jokes about his having to work on a beautiful summer Saturday.The thought burned him like fire.
He put his hand into his pockets and took out all that he owned.Perhaps he could find some way to pay someone to do the whitewashing for him.But there was nothing of value in his pockets-nothing that could buy even half an hour of freedom.So he put the bits of toys back into his pockets and gave up the idea.
At this dark and hopeless moment,a wonderful idea came to him.It filled his mind with a great,bright light.Calmly he picked up the brush and started again to whitewash.
While Tom was working,Ben Rogers appeared.Ben was eating an apple as he walked along the street.As he walked along it,he was making noises like the sound of a riverboat.First he shouted loudly,like a boat captain.Then he said"Ding-Dong-Dong","Ding-Dong-Dong"again and again,like the bell of a riverboat.And he made other strange noises.When he came close to Tom,he stopped.
Tom went on whitewashing.He did not look at Ben.Ben stared a moment and then said:"Hello!I'm going swimming,but you can't go,can you?"
No answer.Tom moved his brush carefully along the fence and looked at the result with the eye of an artist.Ben came nearer.Tom's mouth watered for the apple,but he kept on working.
Ben said,"Hello,old fellow,you've got to work,hey?"
Tom turned suddenly and said,"Why,it's you,Ben!I wasn't noticing."
"Say-I'm going swimming.Don't you wish you could?But of course you'd rather work-wouldn't you?Of course you would."
Tom looked at the boy a bit,and said,"What do you call work?"
"Why,isn't that work?"
Tom went back to his whitewashing,and answered carelessly.
"Well,maybe it is,and maybe it isn't.All I know is,it suits Tom Sawyer."
"Oh come,now,you don't mean to say that you like it?"
The brush continued to move.
"Like it?Well,I don't see why I shouldn't like it.Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?"
Ben stopped eating his apple.Tom moved his brush back and forth,stepped back to look at the result,added a touch here and there,and stepped back again.Ben watched every move and got more and more interested.Soon he said,"Say,Tom,let me whitewash a little."
Tom thought for a moment,and was about to agree,but he changed his mind.
"No-no-it won't do,Ben.You see,Aunt Polly wants this fence to be perfect.It has got to be done very carefully.I don't think there is one boy in a thousand,maybe two thousand,that can do it well enough."
"No-is that so?Oh come,now-let me just try.Only just a little."
"Ben,I'd like to,but if it isn't done right,I'm afraid Aunt Polly …"
"Oh,I'll be careful.Now let me try.Say-I'll give you the core of my apple."
"Well,here-No,Ben,now don't.I'm afraid …"
"I'll give you all of it."
Tom gave up the brush with unwillingness on his face,but joy in his heart.And while Ben worked at the fence in the hot sun,Tom sat under a tree,eating the apple,and planning how to get more help.There were enough boys.Each one came to laugh,but remained to whitewash.By the time Ben was tired,Tom sold the next chance to Billy for a kite; and when Billy was tired,Johnny bought it for a dead rat-and so on,hour after hour.And when the middle of the afternoon came,Tom had won many treasures.
And he had not worked.He had had a nice idle time all the time,with plenty of company,and the fence had been whitewashed three times.If he hadn't run out of whitewash,Tom would have owned everything belonging to his friends.
He had discovered a great law of human action,namely,that in order to make a man or a boy want a thing,it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to get.
