17、(共 20小题;每小题2分,满分 40分)AHe was no scholar, and his classmates made fun of him.

In his second year of high school,
18、 he dropped out. But when his parents persuaded him to return, he was placed in a learning-disabled class. He lasted one month. Only when the family moved to another town did he land in a more suitable high school, where he eventually graduated. After being denied entrance into a traditional filmmak
19、ing school, Steven Spielberg enrolled in English at California State College at Long Beach. Then in 1965, one of those important moments, his life took a complete turn. Visiting Universal Studios, he met Chuck Silvers, an executive in the editorial department. Silvers liked the kid who made 8-mm fil
20、ms and invited him back sometime to visit. He appeared the next day. Dressed in a dark suit and tie, carrying his father s briefcase with nothing inside but a sandwich and candy bars Spielberg strode (跨步 ) confidently up to the guard at the gate of Universal and gave him a casual wave. The guard wav
21、ed back. He was in. “ For the entire summer,” Spielberg remembers, “ I dressed in my suit and hung out with the directors and writers including Silvers, who knew the kid wasn t a studio employee, but pretended he didn t notice that.

22、thout permission. I bought some plastic tiles and put my name in the building directory: Steven Spielberg, Room 23C. It paid off for everyone. Ten years later, the 28-year-old Spielberg directed Jaws, which took in $470 million, then the highest-grossing movie of all time. Dozens of films and awards

27、 BThe world s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, was opened with a grand fireworks ceremony, which was attended by some 6,000 guests. During the ceremony, a screen displayed its exact height, which had previously been kept secret 828m, far taller than the previous record holder, Taipei 101. “ We we
28、ren t sure how high we could go,” said Bill Baker, the building s structural engineer. He also said that the building s design had unbelievable technical challenges because Dubai has high winds and is close to an area where earthquakes frequently happen. “ It was kind of an exploration, a learning e
29、xperience.” “ We have been hit by lightning twice, there was a big earthquake last year that came across from Iran, and we have had all types of wind which has hit us since we began the construction. The results have been good and I salute (向 致敬 ) the designers and professionals who helped build it,
30、” he said. Construction of the building began in 2004. The tower has the world s tallest service lift, the world s highest swimming pool on the 76th floor and the worlds highest observation deck (观景台 ) on the 124th floor. Covered in 28,000 glass panels (面板 ), the tower has 160 floors and more than 5
31、00,000 square metres of space for offices and flats. It will be home to 1,044 luxury apartments, 49 floors of offices and a 160-room hotel. Around 12,000 people are expected to live and work in the tower. However, investors are facing losses even before the tower is completed because the global econ
32、omic crisis makes property prices (房产价格 ) go down in Dubai. Some apartments sold for $2,700 per square feet, but are now going for less than half of that. 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 4 页,共 10 页- 5 - / 10 Experts say it will be particularly hard to lease (出租 ) office space because
33、few companies can pay the high prices during the economic crisis. 41. The opening ceremony of the Burj Khalifa _. A. was celebrated by a fireworks show B. received thousands of foreign tourists C. kept the building s height a secret D. was influenced by high winds 42. The construction of the buildin
34、g was a learning experience because _. A. it is the world s most dangerous buildingB. some technical difficulties couldn t be overcome C. many problems had to be solved during the construction D. it s located in an area where disasters often happen43. From what Bill Baker said, we can learn that the
35、 Burj Khalifa s designers _. A. predicted the earthquake in Iran B. had to work in terr ible conditions C. had to take natural factors into consideration D. faced the biggest technical challenge in history 44. Which of the following is TRUE of the Burj Khalifa? A. It has the world s biggest swimming
36、 pool. B. It is built for business as well as for people to live in. C. It has the world s most expensive hotel. D. It has the most offices among buildings in the world. 45.

37、facing environmental problems D. are facing economic problems CGenetically modified (GM) (转基因的 ) crops have made an enormous positive influence on the world. In recent years, GM technology has brought much benefit directly to farms, reducing the use of poisonous chemicals that kill pests of plants,
38、and reducing greenhouse gas emissions (排放 ). A particular concern among farmers in developing countries is the loss of crops to insect pests. One way to fight this problem is to use chemicals, but this behavior will do harm to the health of farmers, the environment, and the people who eat the food.
39、Instead, biotechnology can be used to increase production of pest-resistant crops. For example, in Africa, the sweet potato serves as an important crop, but viruses (病毒 ) can dramatically destroy its output by up to 80%. The Kenya Agricultural Research Institute, however, has developed a genetically
40、 modified sweet potato that 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 5 页,共 10 页- 6 - / 10 can increase crop production by 18- 25%. What s more, this new kind of potato has genes that resist damage due to bad climate or unexpected natural disasters. The use of genetically modified foods can hav
41、e a positive effect on the economy, especially in less developed countries. GM crops have already led to economic growth in South Africa, according to some studies. Because GM crops require fewer chemicals, farmers can save money on both the costs of pesticides and labor necessary to manage the trea
42、tments. This, combined with higher output, allow the farmer to gain more from the product. With an increasing adoption of GM crops, the use of pest-control chemicals has been greatly reduced. In fact, while not necessarily related to food-related biotechnology, some GM plants have been developed to
43、take care of heavy metal pollution in some polluted soil. Finally, biotechnology can allow people to receive vaccines (疫苗 ) t hat are difficult to distribute. By putting vaccines into food products, organizations can more easily transport them to people in need. 46. We can learn from the text that _
44、. A. GM crops benefit the environment B. farmers fail to grow a lot of plants C. insect pests do less harm to the soil D. more greenhouse gas is sent into the air 47. What can we infer from the example of the sweet potato? A. Kenya will have the most advanced technology in the future. B. Crops can b
45、e modified to grow in worse natural environment. C. Potatoes grown in wet areas can resist different kinds of insects. D. The adoption of GM potatoes may do harm to the farmers health. 48. According to the text, GM crops in poor countries _. A. need further research on chemical resistance B. cost mo
46、re time and money on farm management C. suffer fewer natural disasters during the growth D. offer good economic benefits to the farmers 49. Which of the following can be concluded from the text? A. New challenges in world farming have been caused. B. Certain kinds of GM plants can be used as medicin
47、e. C. Biotechnology will be used in more and more fields. D. It is difficult to transport GM products in some areas. 50. The text mainly talks about _. A. benefits of genetically modified food crops B. distribution of some GM crops in the world C. progress made in potato growth in Africa D. the use
48、of biotechnology in medical science 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 6 页,共 10 页- 7 - / 10 DDo you have current facts and figures about how much rainforest is being destroyed each day around the world, and for what purpose(s)? Exact numbers are nearly impossible, but most experts agree
49、that we are losing upwards of 80,000 acres of tropical rainforest daily. Along with this loss and degradation (退化 ), we are losing some 135 plant, animal and insect species every day or some 50,000 species a year as the forests fall. According to researcher and writer Rhett Butler, who runs the crit
50、ically praised website, M, tropical rainforests are playing a key role in the basic functioning of the planet. They help maintain the climate by regulating atmospheric gases and stabilizing (使稳定 ) rainfall, and provide many other important ecological functions. Rainforests are also home to some 50 p
51、ercent of the world s species, Butler reports, “ making them an extensive library of biological and genetic resources.” Environmentalis ts also point out that a quarter of our modern pharmaceuticals are obtained from rainforest, but less than onepercent of the trees and plants in the tropics have be
52、en tested for effective treatments. Sadly, then, we don t really know the true value of what we re losing as we cut down, burn, and plant over what was once a treasure of biodiversity. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), overall tropical deforestation rates this
53、decade are 8.5 percent higher than during the 1990s. While this figure suits all forests in the world s tropics, researchers believe the loss of primary tropical rainforest has increased by as much as 25 percent since the 1990s. Despite increased public awareness of the importance of tropical rainfo
54、rests, deforestation rates are actually on the rise, mostly due to activities such as commercial logging, agriculture, cattle ranching, dam-building and mining, but also due to the collection of fuel wood. Indeed, as long as commercial interests are allowed access to these economically depressed are
55、as of the world, and as long as populations of poor rural people continue to expand, tropical rainforests will continue to fall. 51. Tropical rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they . A. reflect more heat from the earth B. produce rich soil and prevent soil loss C. bring about heavy

The heated debate over cloning pets must be cons
70、idered seriously. In my point of view, cloning pets is not necessary in people s lives.Firstly, the death of animals or pets is a natural process. Cloning technique shouldn t be used for the reproduction of human beings and neither should it be used to reproduce pets. Secondly, an owner usually has
71、some beautiful memories with his pet. When it dies, the memories remain. Though the cloned one has the same appearance as the dead pet, it is not exactly the same one. Last but not least, I think it s not worthwhile to spend so much money and time cloning pets. Keeping a pet is to love and protect little animals, so people should take another one as a pet and spend the money on more valuable things. 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 10 页,共 10 页
