A
Do you want to see the effects of global．Warming? Then head north．Recent studies indicate
that the North Pole，instead of coated in thick。sea ice，could be underwater during the summer in less than 10 years；But seeing the Arctic terrain(地带)up close isn’t easy, unless you’re handy with a dogsled．Steger is going to take all of us there．
Steger,，64，is a great polar explorer．He was the first person to make a dogsled trip to the North Pole，and is also a devoted environmentalist who was early to ring the alarm bell on global warming．
Steger is about to lead a team of six young adventurers on a 1,400-mile，60―day―long dogsled trip across Ellesmere Island, in the Canadian Arctic．The sea ice in that region should still be frozen．”We want to take our audience to the front lines．of global warming，”．says Steger．The team will be uploading videos，stories and photos to the website global warming 101．com as they march．along，allowing armchair adventures and kids in classrooms to follow their progress day to day．
Steger is team will ,include some already―famous young explorers．Sam Branson,22―year, old，is an experienced Arctic traveler．Also on the，journey will be 27―year-old Norwegian Sigrid Ekran．Last year Ekran become．only the second woman in history to win Rookie(新秀)of the Year for the I ditarod Sled Dog Race．
What they will see may be surprising．Even Steger doesn’t know exactly what to expect．Cli-
mate change has already reshaped the geography of the Arctic．”Within a decade or less，it’s going to be impossible to reach the North Pole by dog team，without flotation(漂浮)，”says Steger．

C．Ekran，a member ,is the second woman to have reached the North Pole．
D．All the members are experienced Arctic explorers.
44．Why does Steger NOT know what they will see during their trip?
A．Because it will be the first time for him to go that far north．
B．Because the sea ice in that region should still be frozen．
C．Because the geography there has changed，due to warmer temperatures
D．Because they will go there by boat instead of by sledge．
B
“How lucky you are to be a doctor…”Anyone who's a doctor is right out of, luck，I thought,
Anyone who's studying medicine should have his head examined．．
You may think 1 want to change my job．Well，at the moment I do．As one of my friends says―even doctors have a few friends―it’s all experience．Experience! I don’t need such experience．I need a warn，comfortable，undisturbed bed all my own. I need it badly．I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well，that’s what I need．
All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini(微型汽车)through the foggy；trceets
of East London at 3：
Of course，being a doctor isn’t really all bad．We do have, our moments．Once in a while：people are ill，once in a while you can help，once in a while you get given a cup of tea and rock-hard cake at two o'clock in the morning―then you worry if you have done everything．But all too often “everything”is a repetitious rule：look，listen，feel，and tap．Pills，injection(注射)，phone，and ambulance(救护车)，away to the next．
And then there is always the cool，warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency
bed service who will get your patient into hospital for you―the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand in the cold，dark，smelly, dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of
town．Oh，it has its moments，this life does．
45．According to the sentence”Anyone who’s studying medicine should have his head
examined，”we know that
A．a medical student should have a very good memory
B．a doctor must be mentally strong so that he can meet, any difficult situation
C．the writer thinks that those who want to be doctors are crazy
D．to be a doctor is a challenge for people’s mental health
46．Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．The writer wishes he could have a quiet ,undisturbed night in bed at home．
B．One of his friends says that being a doctor helps one gain all sorts of experience．
C．He hates the telephone as a modem means of communication．
D．He is not happy with the small and uncomfortable car he is driving．
47．The statement”We do have our moments”could best be replaced by” ”．
A．We doctors are called at a moment’s notice to see people who need medical treatment
B．Usually we are glad that we can do something to help the sick
C．Sometimes we find people are thankful for our help
D．There are chances that doctors find their work rewarding and pleasing
48．From the whole passage we know that the writer ．
A．is a bad doctor, unwilling to make a house call during the night―time
B．is so dissatisfied with his job that he wishes to find a new one
C．is satisfied with his job but he hates to be called out unnecessarily
D．thinks a doctor can enjoy certain special rights whether he felt lucky or not

February 24，2008 saw thieves break into the showroom of an Italian jeweler favored by Hollywood stars and stole items worth up to 10 million dollars while its owners were in Los Angeles hosting a party to celebrate the Oscars．
The robbery, which took place at the Damiani showroom in Milan’s fashion district that morning，was compared later with the“perfect scenes”in films such as Ocean’s Eleven and The Italian Job．
The gang had spent more than．a month digging a tunnel from a disused cellar(地窖)in a connecting building．The drilling had been heard for weeks but was thought to be part of continuing building works next door．The four thieves，dressed in balaclavas；sunglasses and fake uniforms of the Guardia di Finanza，used an internal staircase to reach the first floor, thus avoiding alarms and video surveillance(监视)cameras．
The showroom had been opened for a private viewing by wealthy customer and there were five
employees inside．including a cleaning lady and a member of the catering staff, as well as the manager．The thieves said they were there to check the accounts，then overpowered(制服)the staff,
tied them up with electrical cable,sealed their mouths with tape and locked them in the washroom．
They then helped themselves to jewelry from the safe―deposit boxes and left the way they had come．
The entire operation had taken little more than 40 minutes．The employees managed to free themselves and raise the alarm，but by then the，gang was long gone．The police said that they were looking into whether the robbers had“ inside assistance ”that had helped them to avoid the alarms and surveillance cameras．
49．Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A．A Perfect Robbery B．10 Million of Jewelry Stolen
C．The Smart Police D．Thieves Breaking into an Italian Jeweler
50．Why didn’t the thieves appear in the cameras? Perhaps because ．
A．there was something wrong with the cameras then
B．the thieves entered the showroom through an internal staircase,
C．the employees were too frightened to open the cameras then
D．the cameras didn’t work with the uniforms of the finance guards
51．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．The Italian jeweler was popular with some famous American film stars
B．The thieves went into a disused tunnel into a connecting building．
C．The robbery took place in the morning and there was no one in the showroom．
D．One of the jeweler employees must have helped the robbery secretly．
52．We can learn from the passage that
A．the items were so dear that few people could afford to buy one
B．the thieves left the showroom from where they came into it
C．the most valuable jewels couldn’t have survived the robbery
D．the jeweler had to close down because of the showroom robbery

Do you always forget where you placed your keys or your purse? What was the name of the movie you saw last week? The major cause of your forgetfulness may be linked to what you store in your body not in your short-term memory bank．
Tests continue to show that people with enough Vitamin B-2 do well in memory exams．The
“B” could stand for”brain”，if you’re one of many with limited instant recall．And the number one
source of that vitamin is sunflower seeds．
Even when you’re sleeping or relaxing，your brain is still at work．Although it makes up just two percent of your total body weight．it uses up to 30％of the calories you take in each day．For it to work properly, it must be fed．Even if you’re not a breakfast eater, that meal is the best way to prepare your brain for the day．A quick and easy English muffin with peanut and butter in it，a glass of milk，and an orange，might be what your brain may be asking you the first thing in the morning．when you feel your head is in a fog．Having sunflower seeds and fruit between meals adds more muscle to that hungry demanding organ．Vitamin B―1 also helps the memory ,and that is found in eggs，meats and nuts．In Chinese culture，walnuts(核桃)are known as the fruit for a long life because it is believed that they feed both the kidneys and the brain．And according to Chinese culture，if you keep those two important organs in good working, order，you’ll live
1onger．
However forgetful you are，just keep in mind the letter“B”，which will help you to”bear in mind almost everything’’ even on those days when life’s challenges are sending you in a billion directions．
53．The underlined word“muffin”in the third paragraph probably means
A．menu B．dinner C．calorie D．cookie
54．In the passage，Chinese culture is mentioned to
A．support the idea of long life
B．show the importance of vitamin B-1
C．warn the readers of two organs
D．remind us of walnuts and sunflower seeds
55．What can we conclude from the passage?
A．What we eat seems more important than what we learn in terms of memory．
B．Two percent of our brain is still active when we are sleeping or relaxing．
C．It doesn’t make much difference to our brain whether we have breakfast or not．
D．Life’s challenges have no effect on our memory, if dealt with in a proper way．
56．The best title for the passage could be ．
A．Human of Memory Loss B．Vitamin B-2 and，Memory
C．Forgetful? But not Brain D．Chinese Culture of Long Life
E
It is hard to track the blue whale，the ocean’s largest creature which has almost been killed off by commercial whaling and is now listed as an endangered species．Attaching radio equipment to it is difficult and visual sightings are too unreliable to give real insight into its behavior．
So biologists were delighted early this year when with the help of the Navy they were able to
track a particular blue whale for 43 days monitoring its sounds．This was possible because of the
Navy’s formerly top-secret system of underwater listening equipment spanning(估量)the oceans．
Tracking whales is but one example of an exciting new world just opening to civilian(民用)scientists after the cold war as the Navy starts to share and partly uncover its global network of underwater listening system built over the decades to track the ships of potential enemies．
Earth scientists announce at a news conference recently that they had used the system for closely monitoring a deep-sea volcanic eruption(火山爆发)for the first time and that they plan similar studies．Other scientists have proposed to use the network for tracking ocean currents and measuring changes in ocean and global temperatures．The speed of sound in wafer is roughly one mile a second-slower than through land but faster than through air．What is most important different layers of ocean water can act as channels for sounds focusing them in the same way a stethoscope(听诊器)does when it carries faint noises from a patient’s chest to a doctor’s ear．This focusing is the main reason that even relatively weak sounds in the ocean especially low frequency ones can often travel thousands of miles．
57．The passage is chiefly about
A．an effort to protect an endangered marine species
B．the civilian use of a military detection system
C．the exposure of a U．S．Navy top-secret weapon
D．a new way to look into the behavior of blue whales
58. The underwater listening system was originally designed to
A．mark and locate enemy ships
B．monitor deep-sea volcanic eruptions
C．study the movement of ocean currents
D．replace the global radio communications network
59．The deep-sea listening system makes use of ．
A．the complex technology of focusing sounds under water
B．the capability of sound to travel at high speed
C．the special quality of layers of ocean water in sending out sound
D．1ow-frequency sounds traveling across different layers of water
60．It can be inferred from the passage that
A．new radio equipment should be developed for tracking the endangered blue whales
B．blue whales are no longer endangered with the use of the new listening system。
C．opinions differ as to whether civilian scientists should be allowed to use military
technology
D．military technology has great future in civilian use

第三节：书面表达
Recently, l have made a survey in my class on how they study．They have different learning methods．
Some students listen to teachers attentively in class，trying to catch everything that the teachers
say．Besides，they often consult teachers as often as possible if they have some problems．Because
of this，they spend less time doing their homework，so it is certain that they can go to bed earlier and they always keep energetic in the daytime．
However, others have quite a different way of learning．They have to sit up late at night doing
their homework，so they often feel sleepy in class．As a result，they miss lots of key points and it
usually takes them more time to finish their homework，which makes it difficult for them to concentrate on what they are doing．
According to me，the former learning method is more effective．Only in an efficient method can
we improve our study．Meanwhile，we will have more free time to enjoy ourselves．
