19.Their beautiful call suggests the arrival of spring,but the routes taken by cuckoos(杜鹃) during their annual migration(迁徙) have remained a mystery.Now,though,scientists from the British Trust for Omithology(BTO) have revealed the details of their remarkable 10,000-mile journey,with the help of tracking devices.
Five male birds were caught in Norfolk last May and fitted with satellite-tagged"backpacks''before being released.The scientists then monitored their progress over 12months as they flew to Africa in the autumn,and returned in the spring.
The project was carried out to discover why every year fewer of the birds return to Britain.Between 1995and 2010,the population of cuckoos spending summer here fell by almost half,and the number is continuing to decline.Previously,the lack of information about the cuckoos'long migration has hampered the understanding of how to help conserve the birds.
Earlier this year,it was reported that cuckoos arrived in the UK much earlier than normal.Their call was recorded by ornithologists(鸟类专家) as early as February,a month ahead of their usual arrival.
Like all migrating animals,cuckoos respond to the changing seasons.They depend on lush plants to provide the fruit and food for insects that they feed on.This reliance on seasonal patterns means that a changing climate could make an already challenging journey impossible for them.

32.What is the main purpose of the project?D
A.To track cuckoos'10,000-mile journey.
B.To better understand the habits of cuckoos.
C.To find out what happens during cuckoos'journey.
D.To discover why the population of cuckoos is declining.
33.The underlined word"hampered"in Paragraph 3 probably meansA.
A.prevented    B.deepened    C.improved   D.affected
34.When do cuckoos usually arrive in Britain?C
A.In January.B.In February.C.In March.D.In April.
35.Cuckoos arrived in the UK much earlier than normal probably because ofB.
A.1acking food
B.changing climate
C.changing routes
D.cold spring in the UK.

16.Jobs quickly became bored with college.He liked being at Reed,just not taking the required classes.In fact he was surprised when he found out that,for all of its hippie aura,there were strict course requirements.When Wozniak came to visit,Jobs waved his schedule at him and complained,"They are making me take all these courses."Woz replied,"Yes,that's what they do in college."Jobs refused to go to the classes he was assigned and instead went to the ones he wanted,such as a dance class where he could enjoy both the creativity and the chance to meet girls."I would never have refused to take the courses you were supposed to,that's a difference in our personality,"Wozniak marveled.
Jobs also began to feel guilty,he later said,about spending so much of his parents'money on an education that did not seem worthwhile."All of my workingclass parents'savings were being spent on my college tuition,"he recounted in a famous commencement address at Stanford."I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life.So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out okay."
He didn't actually want to leave Reed; he just wanted to quit paying tuition and taking classes that didn't interest him.Remarkably,Reed tolerated that."He had a very inquiring mind that was enormously attractive,"said the dean of students,Jack Dudman."He refused to accept automatically received truths,and he wanted to examine everything himself."Dudman allowed Jobs to audit classes and stay with friends in the dorms even after he stopped paying tuition.
"The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me,and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting,"he said.Among them was a calligraphy class that appealed to him after he saw posters on campus that were beautifully drawn."I learned about serif and sans serif typefaces,about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations,about what makes great typography great.It was beautiful,historical,artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture,and I found it fascinating."
It was yet another example of Jobs consciously positioning himself at the intersection of the arts and technology.In all of his products,technology would be married to great design,elegance,human touches,and even romance.He would be in the fore of pushing friendly graphical user interfaces.The calligraphy course would become iconic in that regard."If I had never dropped in on that single course in college,the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.And since Windows just copied the Mac,it's likely that no personal computer would have them."
In the meantime Jobs decked out a bohemian existence on the fringes of Reed.He went barefoot most of the time,wearing sandals when it snowed.Elizabeth Holmes made meals for him,trying to keep up with his obsessive diets.He returned soda bottles for spare change,continued his treks to the free Sunday dinners at the Hare Krishna temple,and wore a down jacket in the heatless garage apartment he rented for $20 a month.When he needed money,he found work at the psychology department lab maintaining the electronic equipment that was used for animal behaviour experiments.Occasionally Chrisann Brennan would come to visit.Their relationship sputtered along erratically.But mostly he tended to the stirrings of his own soul and personal quest for enlightenment.
"I came of age at a magical time,"he reflected later."Our consciousness was raised by Zen,and also by LSD."Even later in life he would credit psychedelic drugs for making him more enlightened."Taking LSD was a profound experience,one of the most important things in my life.LSD shows you that there's another side to the coin,and you can't remember it when it wears off,but you know it.It reinforced my sense of what was important-creating great things instead of making money,putting things back into the stream of history and of human consciousness as much as I could."

65.Jobs and Wozniak differed inB.
A.approach to freedom                 B.attitude to requirements
C.appetite for knowledge               D.affection for college life
66.One factor in Job's decision to leave college is thatD.
A.his family was in absolute poverty
B.he wanted to be independent of his parents
C.the college couldn't prepare him for his set goal
D.he wouldn't have his parents'money wasted
67.From Jack Dudman's statement,we can see that Jobs wasB.
A.rather difficult to get along with         B.very serious about existing beliefs
C.quite good at solving problems          D.too stubborn to change his mind
68.The underlined word"audit"in paragraph 3 means"C".
A.give successfully
B.miss occasionally
C.attend informally
D.conduct irregularly
69.Jobs worked on typefaces while suffering from a hard lifeA.
A.to bring something great into existence
B.to prove his value to the whole wo rld
C.to make himself wealthy for a better life
D.to show college was unimportant to him
70.Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?D

3.1 If your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands,you might have a hard time believing the news:e-mail is on the decline.
At first blush,that might seem to be the case.The incoming generation,after all,doesn't do e-mail.Oh,they might have an account.They use it only as we would a fax machine:as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web sites.They rarely check it,though.
Today's instant electronic memos-such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages-are more direct,more concentrated,more efficient.They go without the salutation(称呼语)and the signoff;we already know the"to"and"from."Many corporations are moving to messaging networks for exactly that reason:more signal,less noise and less time.This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated.Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later,I can now send you an unobtrusive,easily-consumed message that you can read-and respond to-on the go.
The decline of e-mail corresponds neatly to the dawn of the mobile era.Instantaneous(及时)written messages are different.These are neatly tailored to fit in just about any time:before a movie,in a taxi,waiting for lunch.And because these notes are invariably brief,they're a natural for smartphone typing.With these formats,you also have control over who can correspond with you,which you usually don't in e-mail.And especially on Facebook,instant messaging can take on the character of a chat room,where several people can talk at once.
Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history?Not necessarily.E-mail still has certain advantages.Whereas tweets and texts feel ephemeral-you read them,then they're gone,into an endless string,e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file,search and return to later.It's easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications:agreements,important news,longer explanations.
So,e-mail won't go away completely.Remember,we've been through a transition like this not so long ago:when e-mail was on the rise,people said that postal mail was dead.That's not how it works.Postal mail found its smaller niche,and so will e-mail.Technology rarely replaces an institution completely; it just adds new avenues.
E-mail down,messaging up.Now go clean out your in-box.
 
62.What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts?C
A.Contact close friends
B.Send long messages
C.Fill in some forms
D.Communicate with their colleagues
63.Paragraphs 3-4 are important to the passage in that theyB.
A.illustrate the preferences of the young generation
B.explain the possible reasons behind the decline of e-mail
C.reveal the rapid development of e-communication channels
D.offer evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages
64.What does the underlined word"ephemeral"in paragraph 5 mean?D
A.Conveniently-sent          B.Randomly-written
C.Hardly readable               D.Short-lived
65.What does the author think of e-mail being replaced?A
A.Negative            B.Indifferent         C.Ambiguous        D.Doubtful.
