But what do the plants get in return? Many things.Plants make food from the carbon andother things that come from animals' bodies.Insects like bees carry pollen(花粉) from one flowerto another and the pollen forms seeds.Birds and other animals eat the fruit in which seeds growand often drop the seeds where they can grow up into new plants.So animals help the growth ofnew prants.

It is reported that bags are getting bigger all the time, and that there are more bags per personon the street today than at any other time in history.If this is true, possible explanations could include the wide use of small electric and electronic gadgets(裝置), a reading-material explosion, apopular interest toward tight or pocketless clothing, or cheap bagmaking labor overseas.
But, much as nature finds ways--such as disease--to control overpopulation, city life hasthrown up impediments(障礙) to bags.to enter many public buildings, theatres, ballparks, andperhaps even underground railway stations, you must go through a search or go bagless.The cityhas countless bag rules.It is hard to keep them all straight, and you're never sure, when leavinghome for the day, whether it might be a bad idea to bring one along.
Last week, the New York Public Library got in the game.Students, researchers, writers, historians, and anyone else who has got used over the years to treating the vast Rose Main ReadingRoom as an office or a reading room came up against a new rule.You are no longer allowed tobring a bag larger than eleven inches by fourteen inches into the library.If you walk in with one,you must leave it at the coat check.You may keep its contents with you, however, and the libraryprovides big clear plastic bags for them.You return them when you come back for your own bag.
What the library is trying to prevent, in this case, is people taking things out, rather thanbringing things in.A librarian said on the second day, "It' s a big change for people who usedcome and bring in half their flats.The people who use the library responsibly will continue to doso.The people who steal will continue to get away with it, if they really want to.
27.What does the writer mainly talk about?
A.The history of the bag rules.
B.The importance of using libraries.
C.Different bags used in our daily life.
D.The use of bags and the rules against it.
28.The bag rules in many public buildings require people to
A.leave the places bagless
B.pay for bringing in bags
C.have their bags examined
D.use big clear plastic bags
29.What is the purpose of the new rule at the New York Public Library?
A.to change people' s way of reading.
B.to help people better use the library.
C.to prevent people stealing from the library.
D.to stop people from bringing in dangerous things.
30.How is the effect of the new rule according to the librarian?
A.Excellent.
B.Limited.
C.Harmful.
D.Unclear.

You might be surprised to know that bicycles have existed for about two hundred years, but noone is sure who first made this popular two-wheeled machine.
31 The front wheel was much bigger than the back one, and also there weren't any pedals (踏板), Riders had to move themselves forward by pushing their feet against the ground.
32 In 1879 an Englishman had the idea of connecting them to the back wheel with achain.Gears(此輪), which made things much easier for those cycling uphill, first appeared in the1890s.
There are now about one billion bicycles in the world.33 They have to compete with carson the streets of all the world' s cities, and the two forms of transport don' t always mix well.InLondon in 2005, for example, over 300 cyclists were either killed or seriously hurt in accidents.
Because bicycles are much more environmentally friendly than cars, now many governmentsencourage people to ride rather than drive.34 The number of yearly journeys made by bicyclein London has increased 50% over the last five years.
However, although one in three British people owns a bicycle, they still don't use themnearly as much as they could35.
It is hoped that more people will rely on bicycles to move around.The reasons are obvious--cycling helps to protect the environment, keep us fit, and it is often not only cheaper but also quicker than travelling by car in many cases.
A.Pedals fmally arrived in the 1840s.
B.Cycling is on the rise in the Unilted Kingdom.
C.Bicycles are used for only 2 % of journeys in the UK.
D.The first person who made a bicycle was an Englishman.
E.The number of bicycles is twice more than that of cars.
F.The early models didn' t look much like the bicycles of today.
G.Cycling helps improve people's health.

安迪住在洛基山的高處。他在山上捕獵野生動物,也帶其他人打獵。那是他的工作。
一天,一封信給安迪帶來了一份新的工作。這個工作不但改變了他對動物的看法,也改變了他的狩獵方式。信中寫道:“我想寫一篇關于大角羊的故事。我需要為故事配上圖片。請問你可以為我拍攝大角羊的照片嗎?”
安迪的兩個兒子希望父親接受這份工作。“我們會幫助你的!”他們說。大角羊野性很強。安迪知道給大角羊拍攝照片會很困難。“但是為什么不試試呢?”他的兒子們說。
幾天來。安迪和他的兒子們努力嘗試拍攝大角羊的照片。他們不希望被大角羊發(fā)現,所以他們走路很輕。他們躲在巖石的后面,但是大角羊總會逃掉。
然而有一天,安迪和他的兒子們走到一塊大巖石附近。他們和幾只大角羊撞個正著。但是這些羊并沒有逃跑!“現在我知道那些羊為什么跑掉了,”安迪說,“它們逃跑是因為我們悄悄地跟在它們后面。從現在開始。我們就待在它們能看見我們的地方。”
第二天,安迪看見羊群就站在開闊處。他和他的兒子們朝羊群走過去。他們沒有試著躲藏,但是走得非常慢。他們知道只要稍微走快一點都會嚇跑羊群。
“不要直視那些羊,”安迪說,“野生動物不喜歡被盯著看。他們會逃跑的。”他們朝這邊看看朝那邊瞅瞅,越來越接近羊群。一會兒,他們就走到足夠給羊群拍攝清晰照片的位置了。他們跟這些野生羊群成了朋友,還幫那位作家拍攝了很多精彩的照片。從那時起,他們再也沒有捕獵過大角羊。
21.D【精析l細節(jié)題。題干意為“安迪得到了一份什么新工作?”文章第二段最后“The letter said:‘l want to write a story about bighornsheep.1 need pictures to go with my story.Will you get pictures ofthe sheep for me?”提到,安迪收到了一封信,信中作家請求他幫忙拍攝大角羊的照片。文章的最后一段也提到他們幫作家拍攝了很多照片。故D正確。
22.B【精析】細節(jié)題。題干意為“接近大角羊最好的方法是什么?”根據第七段第一句安迪的口述“Don’t look fight at the sheep,”可知。不能直視羊群,所以排除A。第六段最后一句“They knewthat any fast move will frighten them away.”說明走路速度過快也會嚇跑羊群,更不用說跑了,所以排除c。第四段最后一句“They hid behind rocks,but the sheep always fan away.”說明跟在羊群后面,羊群也會逃跑,故排除D。結合第五段及第六段內
容可知,慢慢地從正面接近大角羊是正確的方式,故B正確。
23.D【精析】歸納題。題干意為“安迪從這份新工作中收獲了什么?”文章第一段中提及這份工作帶給安迪的變化,最后一段也說明他們和大角羊成了朋友,安迪通過這份工作對大角羊有了更多的了解。A、B、C三項在文中都沒有體現,故D正確。

在世界的每個地方,動植物都是生活在一起的。有些動物以吃植物為生。一些植物得以存活是因為食草動物會被其他天敵動物捕食。植物根部所需的肥沃土壤得益于蠕蟲和其他生存于地下的非常微小的動物。綠植哺育著動物以及人類。
動植物的共存使得地球成為適宜居住的好地方。動植物之間互相給養(yǎng)。他們互相交換所需物品以維持生存。
動物呼吸空氣,并在體內產生變化。當它們呼出氣體時,其中包含一種被稱為“碳”的物質。動物不能再用它們呼出的氣體。但是,植物需要碳氣體。植物吸入它們生長所需要的碳氣體,呼出新鮮空氣。植物通過碳和水生成食物。它們利用陽光完成這項工作,就如同機器借助汽油或電力維持運轉。植物將生成的食物儲存于它們的體內。但是,植物可以獲得怎樣的回報呢?很多的回報。植物從動物產生的碳和其他物質中生成食物,像蜜蜂這樣的昆蟲,它們將花粉從一朵花傳到另一朵花,而這個花粉可以形成種子。鳥類和其他動物在種子生長出的地方吃到果實,又將種子帶到可以讓它們生長的地方。所以說,動物幫助了植物的再生。
24.B【精析】推斷題。題干意為“下面哪個選項與第二段中的詞組‘trade wim’意思最為接近?”由第二段最后一句“They trade forthings they both need to stay alive.”可知,他們互相交換所需物品以維持生存。故可以推斷出劃線部分的含義應該是互相交換的意思。故B正確。
25.A【精析】細節(jié)題。題干意為“與第四段中的‘電力’作對比的是什么?”由第四段第二句話中的“They use sunlight for this work…”可知,它們利用陽光完成這項工作,由此可以看出“電力”是用來和“陽光”作對比的,故A正確。
26.A【精析】歸納題。題干意為“文章的中心思想是什么?”全文基本可以分成兩個部分。第一部分說明一些動物靠食草為生,植物為動物提供了生存養(yǎng)料。第二部分說明植物也可以借助動物獲取一定的生存養(yǎng)料。所以兩者是相輔相成的。故A正確。

Text 3
據報道,包一直在增大,而且現今在街上人們手中包的數量比歷史上任何時候都要多。如果屬實的話,可以將原因歸結為廣泛使用的.電器類或電子類產品,大量的閱讀材料,以及緊身衣或是沒有口袋的服裝的流行,又或者是由于海外低成本的包袋制造勞動力。
但是,如同大自然利用疾病來控制過量人口一樣,城市化的生活為包的使用設置了很多障礙。攜帶包進入很多公共場所,諸如劇院、球場,或許還有地鐵站時都需要通過檢查或選擇不帶包進入。城市里有數不盡的包的使用規(guī)則。想要一直帶著包很困難,而且出門之前你永遠不能確定只帶一個包會不會是個糟糕的主意。
上個星期,紐約市圖書館也實行了相關規(guī)定。學生、研究者、作家、史學家以及其他那些習慣于將玫瑰主閱覽室當作辦公室或者普通閱覽室使用并且使用了很多年的讀者們遭遇到了新規(guī)定。新規(guī)規(guī)定不允許讀者攜帶超過l4英寸長、11英寸寬的包進入圖書館。如果攜帶有超過
此尺寸的包,請放置于衣帽間。但是請隨身攜帶包內私人物品,圖書館可以提供大號的透明塑料袋用于放置物品。請讀者于離開時取回自己的包并同時歸還塑料袋。
這種情況更多的是為了預防有人將圖書資料帶離圖書館,而不是擔心他們帶進的物品。新規(guī)實施的第二天,一位圖書館管理人員表示,“對于那些習慣于隨身攜帶很多物品的人來說,這是個很大的變化。負責任的讀者將會支持這一規(guī)定,然而此規(guī)定并不能有效制止那些偷書者。”
27.D【精析】主旨題。題干意為“作者主要講述的是什么?”全文述說了包袋使用的現狀,接著又說明在城市中存在很多不允許攜帶包袋的地方或場合D項符合題意。文中其他三項在文中均沒有體現,故D正確。
28.C【精析】細節(jié)題。題于意為“在許多公共場所,包的使用規(guī)則要求人們。”由文章第二段第二句“to enter many public
buildings,theatres,ballparks,and perhaps even underground railway stations.Youmust go through a search of go bagless.”可知,
想要進入一些公共場所要么不帶包,如果帶了包都要接受檢查。故C正確。
29.C【精析】細節(jié)題。題于意為“紐約市圖書館實施新規(guī)則的目的是什么?”由文章最后一段第一句“What the library is trying to prevent,in this case,is people taking things out,rather than bringingthings in.”可知,圖書管新規(guī)的目的是為了防止個別人未經允許帶出圖書資料。故C正確。
30.B【精析】細節(jié)題。題于意為“圖書館理員認為新規(guī)則的效果如何?”由最后一段最后一句中的“The people who steal will confinue to get away with it,if they really want to.”可知,圖書管理人員認為新規(guī)對于不同的人有不同的影響,但是那些真心想偷取圖書資料的人不會受到太多的制約,所以新規(guī)的作用是有限的。故B正確。
第二節(jié)補全文章
參考譯文
你可能會驚訝于自行車已有兩百年的歷史了,但是沒有人知道是誰發(fā)明了這個如此受歡迎的兩個輪子的機器。
(31)早期的自行車并不是現在的樣式。前輪比后輪大很多,而且沒有踏板。騎乘的人要靠兩腳蹬地才能使自行車前行。
(32)踏板出現于十九世紀四十年代。l897年,一位英國人想到用鏈條將踏板和后輪連接起來。十九世紀九十年代,齒輪被首次運用于自行車,這使得自行車能夠更輕松地行駛于上坡路段。
現在世界上大約有十億輛自行車。(33)它們的數量是汽車的兩倍多.在所有城市的街道上,自行車都不得不和汽車競爭,而且作為兩大主要交通方式,它們相處的并不融洽。例如2005年在倫敦,有超過300名騎自行車的人在交通事故中傷亡。
由于自行車比汽車更加環(huán)保安全,如今很多政府鼓勵人們騎自行車而不是開車。(34)在英國,自行車的數量正在增加。在過去的五年里,英國騎自行車旅游人的數量增加了50%。
然而,盡管每三個英國人里就有一個人有自行車,但是他們使用的頻率不夠高。(35)騎自行車旅行的人只占到英國旅行人數總量的2%。希望更多的人騎自車旅行。理由很明顯——自行車非常環(huán)保,騎自行車能保持身體健康,而且在很多情況下,騎自行車出行要比開汽車更便宜也更快捷。
31.F【精析】根據下文說自行車的前后輪大小不一,說明早期自行車與現代車的差別較大,此處應是早期自行車的樣式與現在不同。故F正確。
32.A【精析】下文提到有人用鏈條將后輪與“them”連接,可見之前應該是自行車上的部件,而且是復數的名詞。故A正確。
33.E【精析】上文說明自行車的數量較多,下文提到自行車和汽車進行比較。各選項中只有E將自行車的數量與汽車的數量進行了比較。故E正確。
34.B【精析】上文提及使用自行車的好處,下文提及騎自行車旅行數量的增加,只有B提到了數量增加。故B正確。
35.C【精析】根據上下文,此處內容應該為轉折,說明擁有自行車的人不在少數,但使用率不高。故C正確。

第一節(jié)完形填空
參考譯文
那位出租車司機快到四十歲。他接上我,送我去住處。通常,無論我在哪里都喜歡與遇到的人簡單地聊兩句,下面這個經歷也沒有什么不同。
一開始我們聊到他的出租車生意。他簡略地告訴我生意還行。但是汽油的成本觸及了他的底線。然后,我們又聊到工作環(huán)境。他告訴我由于他的背景他很難換工作。“我以前曾是個罪犯,”他誠實地說道:“人們看到我的記錄就不錄用我了?墒,要知道我已經改過自新了,而且好幾年都沒有犯過案了。跟一個罪犯同車你看起來怎么一點都不緊張?”車停在目的地,我想了幾秒鐘該怎么回答。“想要開始全新的生活非常不容易,”我說:“但是,我很高興你正在嘗試新的開始。如果你下半輩子不想再開出租車,你可以繼續(xù)尋找自己感興趣的工作。”當司機接過我的錢時,他看上去非常吃驚。“你對我說的話非常有意義,”他說:“我會永遠記住你的善良和平易近人.希望能夠再次見到你。”

第二節(jié)語法填空
參考譯文
旅行是一場美妙的探險。然而,乘坐飛機旅行會非常疲勞。下面是一些旅行小貼士,它們能有助于減輕你下一欲長途飛行的不適。
不要帶太多行李。帶著沉重的行李箱四處奔波一點也不好玩。實際上。你只需要攜帶換洗的衣物。選擇那些可以互相搭配的衣服。例
如,帶一條褲子和三件能與之搭配的上衣。
在你隨身攜帶的行李中(可以登機的小包),裝入牙刷,藥品,以及其他重要的私人物品。另外,再帶幾件衣服,萬一行李箱丟失也可以安然度過。
訂最早一班的飛機票。如果預訂的是第一航班出發(fā)的飛機,航班延誤的可能性就比較小。
遇到較長時間的飛行,帶一只護頸枕登機。護頸枕可以有效減少壓力和旅途疲勞。還可以避免長途旅行后出現的頸部疼痛。
56.are【精析】本題考查主謂一致。在“tlle following…”的句型中,謂語的數根據之后表語部分的數量來判斷。由于下文提及的是“Soilletips”,故應填be動詞的復數形式。
57.to early【精析】本題考查強調句型。“it is+aaj.+to do sth.”,所以應使用所給單詞的不定式to CalTy。
58.worn【精析】本題考查被動語態(tài)。因為that從句作“clothes”的后置定語從句,所以應使用動詞“weal"”的被動語態(tài),即wom。
59.pants【精析】本題考查名詞復數。上文提到的是“0ne pair of”,之后的褲子在英語中使用的是復數形式,故填pants。
60.personal【精析】本題考查詞性轉換?崭裉幮枰氖切稳菰~,修飾后面的中心名詞“item”,所以將所給名詞person轉換為形容詞personal。
61.So【精析】本題考查固定搭配。因為主從句是因果關系,“SO that”表示“結果為,以便”,故應填So。
62.lost【精析】本題考查詞性轉換。句子缺少表語部分,所以應該將所給動詞轉換為分詞形式,故填lost。
63.earliest【精析】本題考查形容詞級的轉換和上下文理解。根據下文"the ftrst one”判斷,此處應該是指最早一班飛機,所以應填“early”的最高級形式earliest。
64.a【精析】本題考查冠詞的選擇和上下文的理解。下旬中有提示“aneck cushion”,所以空格處應填不定冠詞a。
65.from【精析】本題考查動詞短語。“prevent sb.from doing sth.”表示“阻止或預防某人做某事”,故填from。
