【题目】 The documentary Blood Lions shows South Africa's cruel "canned' lion hunting industry. In canned hunts, lions are raised by humans and kept in enclosed spaces on private hunting areas. Hunters can get trophy (战利品)easily in exchange for fees of up to $50, 000. There are about 8,000 ranch lions in South Africa. So the country’s hunt operators can make a fortune.

Ian Michler was a lead character in the film. He talked about Blood Lions last July when it was shown in Durban, South Africa. The film has since been viewed in 185 countries. More than 50 screenings have been held at film festivals and in meetings of special interest groups. This year, Blood Lions will be shown at every major tourism conference in Europe and Africa.

Outside the film, Michler and the team are running a global campaign. They are aiming at ending canned hunts and other cold-blooded activities involving lions and other animals.

Australia became the first country, in February 2015, to forbid imports of lion trophies. It was followed by France in November, That month, Blood Lions was shown in the European Parliament. As a result, the government of Finland, Italy, and Spain decided to hold their own screenings. There are a number of other countries likely to do the same.

At the same time, at the end of last year, the world's leading group of African lion researchers offered an important suggestion They advised that any analysis of the present state of wild lions in South Africa should not include its thousands of ranch lions. Wild lions in South Africa now number some 3, 000. There are around 20,000 wild lions in Africa.

"The great majority of lion populations in Africa have been reduced,” says Hans Bauer, lion researcher at Oxford University Wildlife Conservation Research Unit. 'It's important to stress that South Africa's ranch lions are horror that has nothing to do with lion protection. These lions should never be taken into account in any serious analysis of the state of lions in Africa."

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文,介绍了《血狮》的主演米克尔和他的团队发起的一场全球性的保护狮子的运动。

1细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The film has since been viewed in 185 countries. More than 50 screenings have been held at film festivals and in meetings of special interest groups. This year, Blood Lions will be shown at every major tourism conference in Europe and Africa.”可知,《血狮》在185个国家放映,在电影节和特殊利益集团的会议上举行了50多次放映,今年,它还将在欧洲和非洲的每一次大型旅游会议上亮相,这些都证明了《血狮》具有国际影响力,故A项正确。

2推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Michler and the team are running a global campaign. They are aiming at ending canned hunts and other cold-blooded activities involving lions and other animals.”可知,米克尔和他的团队正在进行一项全球运动,目标是结束罐装狩猎和其他涉及狮子和其他动物的冷血活动,紧接着第四段介绍了这场运动的成果:20152月,澳大利亚成为第一个禁止进口狮子战利品的国家。法国紧随其后,11月,《血狮》欧洲议会上放映后,芬兰、意大利和西班牙政府决定举行自己的放映,其他一些国家可能也决定这样做,这说明和米克尔和他的团队发起的全球运动取得了显著成果,故C项正确。

3推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It's important to stress that South Africa's ranch lions are horror that has nothing to do with lion protection. These lions should never be taken into account in any serious analysis of the state of lions in Africa.”可知,汉斯鲍尔认为需要强调的是,南非的牧场狮子与狮子保护无关,在任何对非洲狮子状况的严肃分析中,都不应该考虑到这些狮子,由此可知,他建议对狮子进行正确地分析,故A项正确。

4推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了《血狮》的主演米克尔和他的团队发起的一场全球性的保护狮子的运动,因此文章的目的是报道一个动物保护运动,故B项正确。

本篇第4A项的干扰性较大,文章开篇就提到了《血狮》这部电影,所以有些同学会误认为本文的目的是介绍这部电影所反映的内容,但根据第三段中的“Outside the film, Michler and the team are running a global campaign.”可知,本文只是从《血狮》这部电影入手,实际上介绍的是《血狮》的主演米克尔和他的团队发起的一场全球性的保护狮子的运动,因此文章的目的是报道一个动物保护运动。

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

California condors are North American’s largest birds, will wing-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.

In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are nowmore than 150 flying overCaliforniaand nearbyArizona,Utahand Baja inMexico. Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night, they just don’t see the power lines,” says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution(电死) if they touch two lines at once. So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.

Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead.This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.

Rideout’s team thinks that theCaliforniacondors’ average survival time in the wild is nowjust under eight years. “Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for now,” he says. “They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them.”

【题目】 As the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.

Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827)

Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.

Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)

Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.

Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)

Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.

Franz Schubert(1797-1828)

Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(前辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.

1Beethoven did Not make a living by ___.

A.teaching studentsB.doing business

C.selling his worksD.giving concerts

2Bach worked as an organist in Weimar until _____.

A.1765B.1707C.1750D.1716
