词数:254 完成时间:6 分钟 难度:**
Science Daily (Apr. 27, 2008)-- Dutch ecologist Roxina Soler and her colleagues have
discovered that subterranean ( 地 下 的 ) and aboveground herbivorous ( 食 草 的 ) insects can
communicate with each other by using plants as telephones. Subterranean insects issue chemical
warning signals through the leaves of the plant. This way, aboveground insects are warned that the
plant is already "occupied".
Aboveground, leaf-eating insects prefer plants that have not yet been occupied by
subterranean root-eating insects. Subterranean insects send out chemical signals through the leaves
of the plant, which warn the aboveground insects about their presence. This messaging makes it
possible for spatially-separated insects to avoid each other, so that they do not compete for, the
same plant.
In recent years it has been discovered that different types of aboveground insects develop
slowly if they feed on plants that also have subterranean insects and 'vice versa (反之亦然). It
seems that a mechanism ( 机 制 ) has developed through natural selection, which helps the
subterranean and aboveground insects to communicate with each other. This avoids unnecessary
competition.
Through the "green telephone lines", subterranean insects can also communicate with a
third party, namely the natural enemy of caterpillars (毛虫). Parasitic wasps (寄生蜂) lay their
eggs inside aboveground insects. The wasps also benefit from the signals sent by the leaves, as
these help them find more insects for their eggs.
The communication between subterranean and above- ground insects has only been studied
in a few systems. It is still not clear how widespread this phenomenon is, say the researchers.
1. How do subterranean and aboveground insects communicate with each other?
A. By sending signals through the leaves.
B. By giving off particular smells.
C. By making soft and beautiful sounds.
D. By the signals sent by parasitic wasps.
2. After finding a plant occupied by root-eating insects, aboveground insects will usually
________.
A. send out warning signals
B. compete for the same plant
C. choose to leave the plant
D. fight with the root-eating insects
3. Aboveground insects will develop more quickly if their food plants ________.
A. are often visited by parasitic wasps
B. are not occupied by mot-eating insects
C. have more green leaves
D. have more subterranean insects
4. What does the underlined part "a third party' in Paragraph 4 include?
A. Aboveground insects. B. Root-eating insects.
C. Caterpillars. D. Parasitic wasps.
5. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Communication between different insects
B. How do animals avoid competition?
C. Insects use plants as telephones
D. When plants have subterranean residents

答案:
Social Customs between Americans and Chinese
Social customs differ in different parts of the world. For example, the Americans call each
other by their names when two people first met, and so does the young to the old. In china, it
will be regarded as quite impolite to do so.
Another difference is about what can be talked about in conversation. A Chinese thinks
nothing of being asked how much his coat costs while Americans think it impolite to ask such a
question.

them down. I feel uncertain that sleep is one of those things that do the nailing down,"
Professor Stickgold said.
Professor Stickgold's team trained the 24 people to tell the direction of three diagonal bars
(斜线) shown for a sixtieth of a second on a computer screen full of horizontal stripes (水平线).
Half the subjects were kept awake that night, while the others slept. Both groups were
allowed to sleep for the second and third nights to make up for any differences in tiredness
between the volunteers.
Those who slept the first night were much better at remembering the task while the second
group showed no improvement in spite of enjoying two nights of catch up sleep.
A further study by scientists at the Medical University at Lubeck in Germany showed that
memories are laid down in two stages during the night. The fri-st is during the deep, so-called
"slow wave" sleep, which usually takes place in the fnrst half of the night. The second, and less
important stage happens during the periods of dreaming or "rapid eye movement (REM)". When
people don't sleep well in the fu-st half of the night, their memory consolidation is almost the
same as having no sleep at all.
41. Which of the following statements is correct according to Paragraph 1 ?
A. It is necessary to burn the midnight oil before an exam or interview.
B. Sleep speeds up the loss of memory.
C. Man should have a good sleep if he wants to keep a good memory.
D. Staying up late will make you better prepared for an exam or interview.
42. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ____________.
A. some process helps memories to be washed out of the brain
B. professor Stickgold is doubtful about whether sleep can make memories better
C. some memories normally influence the function of the brain
D. sleep improves the condition of memories
43. How was the research conducted by Professor Stickgold?
A. The subjects were divided into two groups.
B. All the subjects were kept awake for 3 nights.
C. One group slept at the first night but was kept awake the next two nights.
D. One group was kept awake for 3 nights but the other slept for the second and third nights.
44. What was the study result of the scientists at the Medical University at Lubeck?
A. REM sleep is not important at all for the consolidation for memory.
B. Intellectual performance mainly depends on the slow wave sleep period.
C. When people sleep poorly in the first half of the night, it is almost the same as having no
sleep at all.
D. REM sleep is as important as slow wave sleep in terms of memory recall.
45. The best title of this passage is ____________.
A. Sleep Necessary for Memories
B. The Importance of the First Stage of Sleep
C. Studies Made By Scientists About Sleep
D. The Scientists' Achievement in Sleep Research
4. 读写任务
阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇巧 30 词左右的英语短文:
MP4 is the short name for a special video format called MPEG-4. The format can compress large
video content into a relatively small document while keeping its quality.
They named it MP4 mainly because it was regarded as an update from MP3. MP3 only
compresses audio documents.
After MP3 players became popular, some technology companies started thinking about
making videos that fit into people's pockets. In fact, most PDAs and some hand-held mobile
phones already have video function.
Since then, manufacturers worldwide have joined in the rush. Among them are big
companies like Sony, Microsoft and Apple, although they don't call their products MP4 players.
Sony called its product with video function the PMP (Portable Media Player). Microsoft
prefers PMC (Personal Media Centre), while some others call the gadgets PVPs (Personal Video
Player) .But, basically, these products all have the same core function--playing video content.
An MP4 player is not just an MP3 player with an extra video function.
In fact, MP4 players must be able to play, record, and transform large video content. That
requires an overall change in both hardware and software. Storage must be enlarged, display
strengthened, speakers powered, software upgraded, and appearance redesigned.
Since video function enriched the players, other functions such as games, cameras can be
added. Sony's PSP (Play Station Portable) was originally built for video games.
In this case, PMP or PMC is more accurate a term than MP4.

答案:
MP3 and MP4, Bad or Good?
The writer tells us about the fact that MP4 updates MP3 because of the development of
technology and its popularity among those youngsters.
Mp3 and Mp4 are quite popular among us students now. I often listen to Mp3, too. We
should use Mp3 and Mp4 not only for having fun, but also for English learning if we listen to
them after we have finished our homework. This will make teachers, parents and us students
happy. Most of my classmates share my idea, but some of them think MP3 and MP4 waste our
parents ' money.
Some teachers and parents are worried about this. They think listening to Mp3 and Mp4 can
get in the way of school work, because some of us only use them to listen to music or watch
movies. Some even bring Mp3 and Mp4 to school and listen to them in class.

The school believes that 34 (learn) should continue outside classes and 35
students should have the chance to experience British culture. Last week we all went to see a
musical(歌舞剧) 36 this weekend we are going to visit Stratford for the day. We have also been
promised a weekend inParis next spring!
Of course, I'm working hard'as well as having 37 . With class sizes of less than fifteen
there is 38 chance of being able to avoid the teachers. As well as learning English we are also
taught how to study by 39 (we). That should make 40 easier when I get to university.
For such a friendly place, the Frances King School is very large. Students come from all over the
world to learn here, from Europe and South America as well as China. We're all finding it a great
place to learn.
Best wishes,

Beijing Opera, with a history of more than 200 years, is very popular in China.
During the Qing dynasty, the emperor had a strong interest in local operas. In the late 18th

In June, 2007, a group of students from eight high schools in Winnipeg, the capital of
Canada’s Manitoba province, will begin test-launching (试发射) a satellite the size of a Rubik’s
cube.
The one-kilogram Win-Cub satellite, named for its home city and its shape, will be put into
low orbit. Once in space, it can perform for a few months or up to several years, communicating
information that could help find the signs of earthquakes.
There are 80 similar satellite projects worldwide, but this is the first high-school based
program of its kind in Canada. 30 Manitoba high school students are having a hand in designing
and building the satellite, in cooperation with aerospace (航空航天的) experts and 10 students
from the University of Manitoba, and with support from two other organizations.
The Win-Cube project is not something that goes on a piece of paper; it is real-world
engineering, allowing high school students to have an opportunity to learn more about the exciting
world of engineering through their participation in this challenging program. It is also taken as a
wonderful example of the unique partnerships within Manitoba. Designing, building and
launching a satellite with high-school participation will bring this world-class educational project
into reality and Manitoba closer to space.
“These Manitoba high school students deserve congratulations for their enthusiasm,
innovation ( 创 新 ), and a strong love for discovery,” said Education, Citizenship and Youth
Minister Peter Bjomson. “We want to make science more relevant, interesting and attractive to
high school students by showing them how classroom studies can relate to practical experience in
the workplace or, in this case, in space,” Bjomson added.
The Win-Cube program is mainly named at inspiring a strong desire for discovery on the part
of the students. It also shows Manitoba’s devotion to research and innovation and the development
of a skilled workforce—all important drivers of knowledge-based economic growth.
41. According to the passage, the Win-Cube satellite is .
A. named after Manitoba and its shape
B. intended for international communication
C. designed like a Rubik’s cube both in shape and size
D. challenged by university students around the world
42. According to Mr. Bjomson, .
A. those Manitoba high school students are worth praising
B. the study of space can be practically made in classrooms
C. Manitoba high schools are famous for the study of space
D. scientific research is too far away from high school students
43. The primary purpose of the project is to .
A. find the early signs of earthquakes
B. relate studies to practical
C. help high school students study real-world engineering
D. inspire a strong desire for discovery among the students
44. Which of the following statements is WRONG?
A. In Canada there are 80 similar satellite programs in all.
B. These students will have an opportunity to learn more about engineering through the project.
C. These high school will have a strong love for discovery and be interested in science.
D. This Win-Cube program is very successful in Canada.

Dear editor,
I 'm writing to tell you about a food poisoning incident. Several days ago, my neighbor

After several hours' treatment they finally escaped from death.
From this all of us have realized the importance of food safety. And I do hope the whole
society shall begin taking actions to protect people's life safety.
Yours
Li Hua

答案:
Safety Ought to Be Paid More Attention to
Today, I received a reader's letter about a food poisoning incident, and with others' help,
the victims were safe. The responsible reader also referred to the importance of food safety and
the necessity of actions to protect people's life.
I was shocked at the food poisoning incident. Personally speaking, the government should
pay more attention to the food safety and making some necessary laws. As some illegal
businessmen are only interested in making profits in the race to become rich quickly, they seldom
care about the necessary safety measures and hygiene or care what happens to consumers. They
must be charged by law. Only in this way will the whole society have a better and harmonious life.
Here, I also wish all the victims recover soon.

41. Active Duty is similar to working at a full-time civilian job. There are hours when soldiers
must be training or performing their jobs and then there are off-hours when soldiers can do
what they like. For an Active Duty Soldier, length of service can range from two to six years.
42. The Army Reserve is more like a part-time job that enables soldiers to keep their civilian
careers while they continue to train near home and serve their country. Many professionals as

typically spend one weekend a month in training, and attend a two-week Field Training
Exercise (FTX) once a year.
43. Enlisted Soldiers put plans into action. Much like employees at a company, Enlisted Soldiers
perform specific job functions and have the knowledge that ensures the success of their unit's
current mission within the Army. An Enlisted Soldier's rank can range from private to
sergeant major of the Army.
44. Warrant Officers are highly specialized experts and trainers in their career fields. Warrant
Officers remain single-specialty Officers whose career track is oriented toward progressing
within their career field rather than focusing on increased levels of command and staff duty
positions like their Commissioned Officer counterparts.

lead Enlisted Soldiers. They have the skills, the training and the character needed to inspire
and encourage others. They embrace and embody the Core Army Values and apply them to

答案:
Film or book, which do you prefer?
Some of us think that it is better to see films than to read books in the original. The
reason is that it takes less time to understand the whole story of a film. Besides, the film is
usually more interesting, and it is easier to follow. Some others have just the opposite opinion.
They think that they can get more detailed information from the original. Meanwhile, the language
in the book is possibly more lively and beautiful. Personally, I agree with the second view, I think
I can stay at home, reading quietly in a situation of my own, and what's more, I am able to better
understand the author's ideas in a book.
