11．Many animals have adaptations that help them cope with specific environments or lifestyles.These special adaptations are written in the genome（基因组）and passed down from generation to generation.This information can help scientists project into the future as well.Reading an animal's genes can help us predict whether an organism（有机体） might adapt to rapid changes in their environment，like those brought on by climate change，so as to match conservation efforts for at-risk species.
A group of biologists are associated with the Bird Genoscape Project that is concerned with the effects of a changing climate.They investigated this question by using yellow warblers（黄莺）and found that some genes looked different in birds from rainy regions when compared with the same genes in birds living in dry zones.These birds have ideally adapted to their local climates.
But if birds have adapted to their current climate what will happen in the coming years as the climate changes？
Many regions of the US are predicted to get warmer and drier over the next century.Because the biologists had an idea of which genetic change are ideal for each climate，they could calculate how much the genome sequences of yellow warbler populations would have to change over the next 50 years to match the genetic conditions of yellow warblers in future conditions.Yellow warblers in some regions，like the Rocky Mountains，showed very high levels of genomic vulnerability（脆弱性），suggesting they would need many changes in their genomes to keep up with climate change.Meanwhile，yellow warblers from other regions，like the Midwest，had low genomic vulnerability and were less at risk.
When we compared genomic vulnerability to changes in yellow warbler populations over the past 50 years，in areas like parts of California and the Rocky Mountains，which had the highest genomic vulnerability，yellow warbler populations have already declined.This could mean that climate change has already affected these populations，and those effects are likely to become even more severe over the next century.
（1）Why should we study the genes of animals according to the author？
A．To protect them from extinction.
B．To study the climate change in history.
C．To predict the environment in the future.
D．To know how climate affects their reproduction.
（2）From the comparison between rainy regions and dry regions，we know that.
A．birds in rainy areas have worse adaptability
B．the genes of birds are influenced by the environment
C．global warming has limited effects on birds in dry areas
D．the environment birds live in determines the order of their genes
（3）What can we learn about the yellow warblers in the US？
A．Most of them can adapt to the climate change easily.
B．Few of them will exist in Rocky Mountains in the future.
C．Their population is related with the level of genomic vulnerability.
D．The change in their DNA code can help them adapt to climate change.
（4）What's the main idea of the passage？
A．Animals DNA can tell their adaptability.
B．Yellow warblers are highly vulnerable species.
C．Changing is the matter of life and death.
D．Environment affects animals' genome.组卷：16引用：2难度：0.5 -
12．Fifteen years ago，when darkness used to fall in Yobe Nkosi，a remote village in ：northern Malawi，children did their school homework by candlelight：There was no electricity.But that started to change in 2006，when villager Colrerd Nkosi finished secondary school in Mzimba，some 40 kilometres away，and returned home，and found he could no longer live without power.
Aged 23 at the time，Nkosi soon figured out that a small river past the house where he grew up had just enough force to push the pedals on his bicycle.He created a generator（ 发电机） that brought power into his home.Word spread quickly among brick houses and neighbors.Began paying regular visits to charge their mobile phones."I started getting requests for electricity and decided to upgrade，" said Nkosi.
With no previous training，he turned an old fridge compressor（ 压缩机） into a water powered turbine（涡轮） and put it in a nearby river，generating electricity for six households.Today，the village is supplied by a bigger turbine.
The users pay no fee for the power but give Nkosi some money for maintenance一slightly more than ＄1 per household per month."The electricity is basically free ，"Nkosi said，speaking in local Chicjye.aiwa.He admitted that the maintenance income was too small to cover repair costs，which.jye.ai mainly funded from his own pocket.；
Despite the challenges，he is determined to expand his mini electricity network to surrounding areas."Once more villages and schools have electricity，people will no longer cut down trees for charcoal（炭） ，"he said."Students will have a lot more time to study"，he said.
As dusk settles over Kasangazi Primary School，groups of learners rush into a classroom for a night-time.jye.ai session."Before we had electricity here，we used to use candles to study，"" said student Gift Mfune，sorting through a pile of text books on his desk. "Now，we all have no excuse but to pass our examinations ，"he laughed.Courtesy of Nkosi，the building is the only school with power out of 17 others servicing the area.
（1）Why did Nkosi's first generator need upgrading？
A．To make much more money.
B．To attract more people's visits.
C．To charge more mobile phones.

D．Narrow-minded and short-sighted.
（3）What can we know about the students in Kasangazi Primary School？
A．They have to stay up late.
B．They did not do well in exams.
C．They are very grateful to Nkosi.
D．They must have a promising future.
（4）What's the author's purpose in writing the text？

13．Stephen Hawking has said he believes brains could exist independently of the body after people die，but that the idea of a conventional afterlife（传统意义上的死后重生）is a fairy tale．Speaking at the premiere（首映）of a documentary film about his life，Stephen Hawking said： "I think the brain is like a program in the mind，which is like a computer，so it's theoretically possible to copy the brain onto a computer and so provide a form of life after death．"
"However，this is way beyond our present scientific and technological level．I think the conventional afterlife is a fairy tale for people afraid of the dark．" The author of "A Brief History of Time"，who earlier approved of the right for the deadly ill to end their lives as long as safeguards were in place，suffered from motor neurone（运动神经元）disease at the age of 21 and was given two to three years to live．
"All my life 1 have lived with the menace of an early death，so I hate wasting time，" Hawking said on Thursday night，using the computer-created voice he controls with a facial muscle and a blink（眨眼）from one eye．The documentary explores a brilliant schoolboy with unclear handwriting who enjoyed the life of Oxford University before illness led to a lifelong desire of discovery about the origins of the universe，which began as a graduate at Cambridge University and has shocked the world．
Hawking's sister Mary says in the film that her brother was highly competitive and curious about everything in a household which friends described as very academic，and explains how she received a toy house as a present when they were children，to which Stephen immediately added electricity．
She said that life with her brother was attractive and exciting． "It's a waste of time arguing with Stephen because he always manages to turn the argument round，" she said．The film goes back to his childhood and his student days and shows the scientist，who uses a wheelchair，at home with break It also explores his family life with his first wife，Jane，and their three children，the breakdown of their marriage and his marriage to one of his carers．
Jane appears on camera to explain how the pressures of caring for the children and the increasingly disabled Hawking became even worse once full-time nurses were brought into the home，destroying any privacy（隐私）．His second wife and former nurse，Elaine Mason，does not appear in the film，and Hawking introduces their 1995-2007 marriage with a few pictures and a brief description．
（1）Which statement is most probably agreed with by Hawking？
A．People can become alive again after they die．
B．Brains could exist out of the body．
C．Brains can now be copied onto computers．
D．People are expected to continue living in a certain form after death．
（2）To the will of incurable patients to end their lives．Hawking．
A．is conditionally agreeable
B．holds a negative attitude
C．shows his deep concern
D．expresses his strong approval
（3）According to Mary，when they were children．
A．Hawking gave her a toy house with electricity
B．they never argued with each other
C．she didn't like living with Hawking because of his competitiveness
D．Hawking showed outstanding talent for physics
（4）It can be inferred that．
A．Hawking now has to use his wheelchair wherever he goes
B．Hawking's first wife was once a full-time nurse
C．Jane felt too stressed to continue her marriage with Hawking
D．the film mainly presents Hawking's student days组卷：1引用：1难度：0.5 -
14．As a senior，my future is always on my mind.To be exact，thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test.Because of this，words of wisdom are a source of comfort.Steve Jobs gave a speech to Stanford's graduating class in 2005 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.
It wasn't always like that，though.It started when I became a junior，when college came into view.It's the first big step to making your life your own.So when Jobs discussed his life as a student，some fears were eased.He，too，felt the need to attend college to make something of himself.He faced what many are extremely afraid of：uncertainty.His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important.His story had a happy ending，of course，since he certainly turned out well.
This doesn't mean that students shouldn't attend college，but rather that they shouldn't worry so much.You'll get where you need to go，even if your path is a bit more winding （蜿蜒的） than you'd like.
Jobs talked about the hardships in his work.His love of his work helped him carry on and he got where he was meant to be，which restates the point：don't panic.
One particular part of his speech stayed with me.Steve Jobs quoted （引用） the saying "Stay hungry，stay foolish" and it has become my motto.Staying foolish is realizing that you are still a fool，no matter how much you've learned or experienced.There is always more to explore.Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.
Steve Jobs's level of success is attainable，and I am to prove that.With the will power to go into the world living every day like it's my last and allowing the future to take care of itself，I will do great thjye.aigs.In the last moments of my life，I'll be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.

（2）It is suggested in Paragraphs 1 and 2 that.

C．the author is a college student
D．the author cares much about his future
（3）What did the author gain from Jobs's speech？

15．How to Achieve a Positive Attitude Over the last decade，researchers have identified practices that can help you achieve and sustain a positive attitude towards your future.（1）
The earlier in life you adopt these practices，the greater the potential impact on the quality，and possibly length，of your life.
Enjoy pleasure.Focus your attention on something pleasing as it occurs，consciously enjoying the experience as it unfolds.（2）Everyday pleasures，on the other band，can slip by without much notice unless they disappear or seem threatened.Slow down and focus.You will enjoy things more，whether a meal or a visit with a friend.
Practice gratitude.Gratitude is a thankful appreciation for what you receive.Try keeping a gratitude journal，in which you regularly write down things for which you are grateful.
（3）As you write，be specific and try to relieve the feeling as you remember what each thing means to you.
Cultivate mindfulness.Mindfulness is generally acquired by training the mind to focus its attention on the present moment in a systematic way，accepting whatever arises.Being mindful helps you become fully engaged in the on-hand activities and creates a greater capacity to deal with adverse events.（4）
（5）If it's normal to experience a sense of loss and even grief if a relationship breaks，your children leave home，or you lose a job or retire.View an important life change，no matter how painful，as a new challenge or opportunity.For example，if you're between jobs or retired，look for volunteer opportunities that would benefit from your professional skills.If you miss having children in your life，consider coaching or tutoring.
A.Emphasize the positive.
B.Here are a few suggestions.
C.Maintain a sense of purpose.
D.Feeling appreciated helps you sustain a positive attitude.
E.Doing so will help you go through your days with greater appreciation.

17．It is necessary but difficult for English beginners to memorize new words，and long lists of words seem to make the mission impossible．They are puzzled why they try to memorize words with great efforts but forget them easily．That's why there are often inquiries about how to memorize new words．
（1）Here are some tips to help．
（2）We too often separate the process of new words memorization from pronunciation．In fact these two can be combined and each will enhance the other．Saying the word to ourselves helps activate aural（hearing） memory，which helps the memory．（3）The more familiar we are with the word，the greater chance we will have to keep it for the rest of our life．
Never memorize single English words．（4）Relate the word to terms we already know，either as synonym or antonym．For example，the word"gargantuan"is similar in meaning to words"gigantic"，"huge"and"large"．Make a sequence of words："small，medium，large，gigantic，and gargantuan"．
Create a mental image of the word that involves strong emotions．Think，"The gargantuan whale is going to swallow me whole"．
Learning English words requires action．Complaining how difficult it is to memorize new words will be of little help．（5）Have a try with ten words a day and you will see what a difference you will make in our English learning．
A．So take action right now．
B．Speak the word while memorizing it．
C．Memorizing new words is very important．
D．Actually，some have given up learning new words．
E．In fact，learning new words needn't be that difficult．
F．Make as many associations and connections as possible．
G．The sound of word helps us recall the spelling and familiarizes us with the word．组卷：9引用：5难度：0.9
