Masses of floating ice are so large that they dwarf your ship，making you question whether your
ship still can be spotted among such floating mountains. They are so improbable looking that you simply look in wonder. It seems that nothing that large could be natural—and then it strikes you that something so large could only be natural.
Now，people realize that as climate change is raising global temperatures，more icebergs are being born. Antarctica creates far more of them than Greenland，the source of bergs in Arctic waters. Antarctica’s are also much larger，sometimes reaching the size of small countries. Recent data show the average atmospheric temperature has increased about 4.5 in the western Antarctic Peninsula since the 1940s，making the region，among the fastest warming on earth. This jump has been shown in the recent breaking of major ice shelves along the Antarctic Peninsula. As a result，thousands of new icebergs have broken off，from ice shelves into the Southern Ocean at an accelerated rate.
Even as more icebergs are being created，scientists are learning that they are far from inactive masses of ice. In fact，they strikingly alter their environments biologically，chemically，and physically，making them islands of life in the open sea.Observers at sea have long remarked that they attract seals，and seabirds，and divers have noticed that fish are more numerous near them than in the surrounding sea. Now scientists are learning just what the attraction is all about.
Depending on their size，location，and the season，icebergs can be nurturers(培养者) or destroyers. During their existence—typically years from breaking off from an Antarctic or Greenlandic glacier to their gradual melting as they float into lower altitudes，they support animals on，around，even inside their splendid ice castle. They fertilize the ocean with nutrients，increasing sea creature production. Grounded bergs can shelter areas of the seafloor，protecting bottom－living creatures from free－floating icebergs. However，large bergs can also trap sea ice，preventing its annual breakup and thus stopping phytoplankton(浮游植物) from getting lifegiving sunlight，breaking the food chain at its first link.
Icebergs will continue to astonish and attract visitors to the polar regions.But now these frozen large masses are taking on a new dimension of wonder as we uncover their vital role in the environment of polar seas. No longer can we look at icebergs as mere passive white mountains floating in the sea. They are active agents of change，each one is an icy oasis with awake of life as it floats on its unstoppable oceanic journey to melting.
49.Why does the author mention “dwarf your ship” in the first paragraph?
A.To explain how natural icebergs are. B.To show how powerful icebergs are.
C.To describe icebergs as floating ships. D.To tell the unbelievable size of icebergs.
50.What can we learn from the passage?
A.The temperature in Arctic is rising faster than that in Antarctica.
B.The ocean food chain breaks due to the melting of icebergs.
C.Floating icebergs help shelter bottom－living ocean creatures.
D.Global warming has kept bringing icebergs into being.
51.From the passage we can conclude that icebergs can .
A. preserve ocean creatures B. carry ocean nutrients away
C. create a warm polar environment D. keep sea animals away from polar seas
C
“Seventy hours，” said the man across the table from Peter Crown. Peter had invited him in for tea on an impulse that didn’t feel like his own. He didn’t even remember hearing a knock at the door.
Somewhere in the middle of the pouring，the man introduced himself as the Devil. He said it with a disturbing pride，and Peter decided not to argue.
“Seventy hours，” the Devil repeated as he stirred(搅拌) his tea.“That’s how long you have to save your life.”
Between sips，he explained the deal. The Devil had arrived precisely two days and twenty－two hours before Peter Crown was scheduled to die. But Peter could win back his life，if he could accomplish one simple task.
“Show me a reliable friend，” the Devil said over the ceramic(陶瓷的) clink of his cup returning to its saucer.“It can’t be a relative or a lover. Choose someone from your past，and I will grant this person’s greatest desire. Then，I will present a letter written by you，where you beg this person to give up the new gift in order to save your life.But choose carefully；on only six occasions have I seen...a reliable friend.”
Peter searched his past.“You’re thinking of Brian Leonard，” said the Devil. Peter didn’t know if he was guessing or reading his mind，but either way，he was right. Brian had served in the fire department alongside Peter. They had entered many burning buildings together.“He saved your life once，” the Devil announced，“and now you think he just might do it again.”
“I’m sure he would，” Peter replied.
“Sure enough to put your life on it？You have time to think it over，if you’d...”
“I don’t need time.”
“Splendid，” said the Devil.“Your friend Brian now has his heart’s greatest desire. And you have exactly sixty－nine hours and fifty－three minutes to draft a letter convincing him to give it up. I’d find a pen，if I were you.”
Peter already knew what Brian’s greatest desire was，and he knew exactly what he would write.
Brian，
I’m sorry，my friend. It has been far too long since we spoke. My life has been in a stupor lately，but today I woke.
I’m sure this letter will find you watching your daughter walk for the very first time. I know that’s a hill you thought she’d never climb. It’s a miracle I cannot explain；but I know that tumor(瘤) is now gone from her brain.
As for the stranger who delivered this note，tell him this is number seven. I can’t wait to share the full story，my friend，when we meet in heaven.
This gift that I send you today was a wonderful lesson for me to learn. Enjoy it，and know that I want nothing in return.
For me，my time has come to an end. But I’m proud to be your reliable friend.
As for Peter Crown，he would never see the Devil again.
52.Why did Peter invite the man to come in and have a cup of tea?
A.They’d known each other for years.
B. He did that just out of a strange desire.
C. The man knocked on the door and wanted to have a rest.
D. Peter had to do that or the man would kill him right away.
53.According to the passage，what did Peter Crown do?
A. He ran a tea house. B. He was a firefighter.
C. He did not have a job. D. It was not mentioned at all.
54..What should Peter write in the letter if he wanted to win back his life?
A. Thanking Brian for saving his life in the past.
B. Asking whether Brian would like to be his reliable friend.
C. Persuading Brian to give up his new gift，his daughter’s health.
D. Telling Brian that he’s looking forward to meeting him in heaven.
55..From Peter Crown’s story，what do you think is a reliable friend?
A.A reliable friend is one that supports you whenever you are in trouble.
B.A reliable friend would never give away your secrets and is loyal to you.
C.A reliable friend knows your greatest desire and will try his best to achieve it.
D.A reliable friend is one that is always there being with you and depends on you.
第五部分：任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
You can’t avoid a conflict at work. If you can avoid a conflict，it means you will win what you want regardless of what the other person wants. Since the potential issue has not been removed，it will simply reappear later. Here are the necessary steps to effectively get rid of conflicts at work.
★Realize that some conflicts are unavoidable at work. On numerous occasions，conflict and disagreement are likely to happen. But when a conflict happens it’s not the end of the world. On the contrary，it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process. Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly. The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever.
★Handle conflicts sooner rather than later. Solve a conflict when it starts，as it only gets worse with time going by. Conflicts at work arise not from something that was said，but from something that wasn’t said! Everyone’s waiting for the other to admit he’s wrong and gets more unpleasant after the conflict has lasted a while. It’s essential to interrupt the “waiting game” before it gets to that point.
★Ask nicely. If somebody has done something that made you angry，or if you don’t understand their viewpoint or actions，simply asking nicely about it can make a world of difference. Never assume that people do what they do to annoy or hurt you. Sometimes there’s a good reason why that person does what he or she does，and a potential conflict disappears right there. Do remember to make an inquiry，not an accusation of any sort.
★Appreciate. Praise the other part in the conflict. Tell them why it’s worth it to you to solve the conflict. This can be difficult as few people find it easy to praise and appreciate a person they disagree strongly with，but it’s a great way to move forward.
