When I was about six years old, my mother came home one day and found that I had collected half a dozen babies of the neighbourhood—all of them too young to walk—and had them sitting before me on the floor while I was teaching them to wave their arms. When she asked the explanation of this, I informed her that it was my school of dance. She was amused, and placing herself at the piano. She began to play for me. This school continued and became very popular. Later on, little girls of the neighbourhood came and their parents paid me a small sum to teach them. This was the beginning of what afterwards proved a very profitable occupation.

My mother took me to a famous ballet teacher, but his lessons did not please me. When the teacher told me to stand on my toes (脚趾) I asked him why, and when he replied “ Because it is beautiful, ” I said that it was ugly and against nature and after the third lesson I left his class, never to return. This stiff (僵硬) and commonplace gymnastics which he called dancing only disturbed my dream. I dreamed of a different dance. I did not know just what it would be, but I was feeling out towards an invisible world into which I guessed I might enter if I found the key.

My art was already in me when I was a little girl, and it was owing to the heroic and adventurous spirit of my mother that it was not prevented. I believe that whatever the child is going to do in life should be begun when it is very young. I wonder how many parents realize that by the so-called education they are giving their children, they are only driving them into the commonplace, and taking away from them any chance of doing anything beautiful or original.

4. What was the writer doing when her mother came home one day?

A.Teaching some babies to dance.

B. Directing some babies to walk.

C.Getting some babies together.

D. Making some babies sit still.

5. How did the writer find the ballet?

A.Old and unpopular.

B.Ugly and unnatural.

C.Graceful and original.

D.Dreamlike and gymnastic.

6. What did the writer think she owed her success in art to?

A.The ballet classes she had attended.

B. Her inborn talent and great efforts.

C.The lucky chance her parents gave her.

D. Her mother’s support and understanding.

7. What’s the main idea of the text?

A. Children should be encouraged to be educated as early as possible.

B. Children should be driven to develop their interest in art at an early age.

C. Parents should discover and develop their young children’s natural gift.

D. Parents should instruct their children to decide on a promising occupation.

One major issue in contemporary medical science is the use of humans in clinical trials of medical products. These trials occur frequently to determine the best way to manage diseases.

People are invited randomly and paid to take part in trials of an experimental drug, or new surgical procedure, in a number of countries at the one time. For example, up to a quarter of patients in some fields like breast cancer may be engaged. Other projects, one of which is to determine whether new scanning techniques can detect Alzheimer’s disease, are under way. They may be given the drug or a placebo (安慰剂), or the best existing treatment, and results compared. The trials may be ”blind” with the patient not knowing which group they are in or they may be a “double-blind” with the doctors not knowing either.

Actually, so many people offer themselves willingly. Patients take the views that at least they will get special attention from the doctor if they participate and they may get access to new drugs before they become available in chemists’ shops. In some countries people are paid to participate, especially in poorer countries where they may be told little of what is actually happening.

Yet there are significant risks too. One US study estimated that one in 30 people suffered side effects from such trials, and one in 10, 000 dies. Doctors say that the risk is not so great during the trial itself, where patients are closely monitored, but comes when the drug is released on the market place. For example, in 2004 a US company recalled an arthritis drug, when it was found that after 18 months of use, the risk of heart attack and stroke increased.

People who support testing claim the risks to the individual are small compared with the benefits. Even if the individual has adverseoutcomes and their condition worsens, that is valuable information for the drug company. While the drug companies usually pay for the hospital trials, government has set up medical committees to handle the issue.

8. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. The purpose of medical trial.

B. The procedure of medical trial.

C. The groups of medical trial.

D. The result of medical trial.

9. Why does the author mention the example in the fourth paragraph?

A. To tell us a lot of patients die from the medical trials.

B. To show the risk of heart attack and stroke has increased.

C. To introduce the risks of the medical trials are not so great.

D. To explain the risks of some drugs appear when they are sold.

10. What docs the underlined word “adverse“ in the last paragraph mean?

A. negative

B. effective

C. subjective

D. impressive

11. What would the author most probably discuss next?

AHow the government prevents clinical trials.

B. How the government gathers the information.

C. How the medical committees pay for the hospital trials.

D. How the medical committees solve the problem.

In 2006, documents were published by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They suggested that cloned animals and cloned animal products would be allowed into the American food supply.

The FDA has stated that cloned animal products are safe for consumption, and has performed many studies to support this view. In fact, products from cloned animals have already been eaten by some Americans without ill effects. The FDA analyzed the structure(结构)and content of cloned animal products and compared it with that of traditionally reproduced animals, and discovered no statistical difference between the two.

Consumers raised serious concerns about cloned animals. The first is the question of whether or not cloned tissue and animal products are truly safe. The second is that many clones are also genetically modified(转基因的)animals, which the FDA has said are unsafe for human consumption. The third is that consumers want to be able to choose what they put into their bodies.

The first concern about cloned animals is almost unnecessary due to the price of producing a clone. Making a clone needs hard work and is very costly. These clones live spoiled lives because they are very valuable, despite biologists' warning that cloned animals decrease diversity.

The second concern, about genetic modification of cloned animals, is more problematic. It may be very difficult to separate genetically modified animals from normal ones. The purpose of genetically modified cloned animals is unclear, and the FDA hasn't allowed their products onto the market, due to health concerns, but the risk of genetic pollution of healthy animals still exists.

Finally, the matter of choice is a large one. Many animal rights activists are worried about clone rights because cloned or not, the animals still have lives. Other consumers are simply trying to eat healthy foods, and have doubts about the cloned animals. If the FDA does not make labeling (贴标签)laws, people may not be able to make informed choices about their food.

12. Why did the FDA allow cloned animal products for consumption?

A. They appeal to consumers very much.

B. They differ from traditional animal products.

C. They taste better than normal animal products.

D. They have been proved safe in several aspects.

13. What do we know about producing clones of animals?

A.It takes much more efforts and money.

B. It provides some new medical benefits.

C.It needs less time than raising animals.

D. It helps increase the diversity of animals.

14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. Cloned animals should be forbidden to enter market.

B. Cloned animals should have the same rights as humans.

C. Laws should be made to protect people's right to choose food.

D. Animal rights activists are strongly against cloned animal products.

15. What's the text mainly about?

A.Doubts about cloned animals rights.

B. Discussions about how to clone animals.

C.Concerns about animal cloning technology.

D. Worries about cloned animal consumption.

第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

My heart went out to the drama teacher I read about in a recent news item. Each parent from her class insisted that she cast their own child as Snow White. This reminded me of my seventh grade musical — “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.” I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky, the female lead who was Tom’s girlfriend. ____16____

For starters, Becky had to sing numerous solos, and I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket. I also didn’t have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.

I was assigned the non-singing role of Miss Watson, the Maid. I had to wear an ugly dress. And I had only one line to learn, “That’s what I say.” ____17____ Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes, and got to repeat “That’s what I say” throughout the play.

At last, our production was put onstage. Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped in with “That’s what I say.” I hadn’t known that she — or I — could be funny, or that her character was important in moving the plot along. ____18____

That night, I began to understand that being the star may not be any more fun than being a stand-out in a supporting role. Each person, onstage and backstage, is essential in theater. Without everyone doing their part, the play would be dull as dirt. ____19____ If everyone’s a star then nothing gets done. It’s all noise and chaos.

And so I believe all children should get the opportunity to play Miss Watson, to become someone they didn’t know they wanted to be. ____20____

A. So it is in life.

B. It was not to be.

C. It was anything but a great part.

DMy Miss Watson turned out to be a hit.

E. It took the entire cast to make a good show.

F. There was an advantage, in my opinion, though.

G. I would hope all children could be a hit in life.

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

Maybe there is a Father Christmas!

Anna stood anxiously staring at the pouring rain while little Molly looked up at a pretty doll in the window of the toy shop on the edge of town. "Mummy, "Molly said, "that's the doll I would like Father Christmas to bring me." A tear rolled down Anna's cheek and she knew it would be impossible this year. They were supposed to start a new life in Spain one and a half years ago before her husband Tim was cruelly taken from them by a car. Their small amount of savings were quickly spent on Tim’s funeral costs and necessities, leaving her in heavy debt.

To her relief, the local people had helped to support her through these difficult times and especially Juan, owner of the local grocery store, a single man, who would often put something special into her shopping bag, even though he himself had been going through a difficult period — his mother died of cancer and he was busy handling the sale of his mother’s house on the edge of town.

As the rain stopped, Anna and Molly started walking home. She was thinking about buying an umbrella after paying the rent with her upcoming wage when Molly shouted excitedly, "Mummy, what’s that on the road?" Anna looked down and saw a bag lying in the water, which was obviously lost because of the sudden rain.

They got home and dried themselves before Anna focused on the bag. Opening it and seeing bundles of money inside, she stood back in shock and cried, "Is this a present from kindness? I can pay off my debt, buy Molly’s favorite doll and my new umbrella ...” Then reality set in, Anna was a very moral person and would never steal even the slightest little thing, let alone bundles of money. She went to bed with all thoughts in her mind.

Paragraph 1：

Early next morning, Anna headed where she decided to go.

Paragraph 2：

At supper, Anna had an unexpected visitor—Juan with gift boxes in his hands.

【9题详解】

(医生们说，在试验期间，患者受到密切监测，风险并不大，但当药物投放市场时，风险就会出现。例如，2004年，一家美国公司召回了一种关节炎药物，因为它被发现在使用18个月后，心脏病发作和中风的风险增加了。)”可知作者在第四段提到这个例子实在解释一些药物在出售时出现的风险。故选D。

【10题详解】

词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“People who support testing claim the risks to the individual are small compared with the benefits. (支持测试的人声称，与好处相比，测试对个人的风险很小。)”可推测下文意思是“即使患者有不良后果，病情恶化，这对制药公司来说也是有价值的信息。”由此可猜测单词adverse意为“负面的”，故选A。

推理判断题。由最后一段内容，尤其是“If the FDA does not make labeling (贴标签)laws, people may not be able to make informed choices about their food.”如果FDA不使用贴标签的法律,人们可能无法对他们的食物做出明智的选择。可以推断出，应该制定法律来保护人们选择食物的权利。故选C项。

【15题详解】

主旨大意题。这篇文章是总分结构，开头提出FDA建议允许克隆动物和克隆动物产品进入美国的食品供应。第三段提出了食用克隆动物的三个顾虑，第一，克隆组织和动物产品是否真正安全的问题；第二，许多克隆动物也是转基因动物，FDA表示是人类食用不安全；第三，消费者希望能够选择吃什么。第四、五、六段分别仔细论述了这三个忧虑。可以推断出这篇文章主要探讨了食用克隆动物的担心。故选D项。

【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。该文是总分结构，该类文章的中心一般就在文章开头，即可找到文章中心。这篇文章是总分结构，开头提出FDA建议允许克隆动物和克隆动物产品进入美国的食品供应。第三段提出了食用克隆动物的三个顾虑，第一，克隆组织和动物产品是否真正安全的问题；第二，许多克隆动物也是转基因动物，FDA 表示是人类食用不安全；第三，消费者希望能够选择吃什么。第四、五、六段分别仔细论述了这三个忧虑。可以推断出这篇文章主要探讨了食用克隆动物的担心。故小题4选D项。

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

【答案】16. B 17. F 18. D 19. A 20. G

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇叙议结合的文章。作者通过小时候一次戏剧表演中成功扮演了一个小角色的经历告诉我们生活中每个孩子都有机会取得成功。

【16题详解】

根据空格前的句子“I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky, the female lead who was Tom’s girlfriend.(我非常想扮演贝基这个角色，她是汤姆的女朋友)”可知，作者非常想扮演贝基这个角色，但是根据空格后的句子“For starters, Becky had to sing numerous solos, and I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket. I also didn’t have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.(首先，贝基要唱很多次独唱，而我却不会唱歌。我也没有像赢得这个角色的漂亮的琳达·赖特那样有长长的金色卷发)”可知，因为作者自身的条件，她演贝基这个角色是不可能的。由空格前后的内容可知，空格处的句子是一个承上启下的句子，所以B项“It was not to be.(这是不可能的)”符合题意。故选B项。

【17题详解】

根据空格后的句子“Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes, and got to repeat “That’s what I say” throughout the play.(沃森小姐在舞台上有好几场戏，在整出戏中她都要重复说‘那就是我说的’)”和下文“Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes, and got to repeat “That’s what I say” throughout the play.(沃森小姐在舞台上有好几场戏，在整个剧中都要重复“我就是这么说的”)”可知，作者虽然扮演的是个小角色，但是，作者认为对她来说是好事，因为她只需要说一句台词“那就是我说的”。所以F项“There was an advantage, in my opinion, though.(不过，在我看来，这还是有好处的)”符合题意，空格后的句子是对空格处句子的解释。故选F项。

【18题详解】

根据空格前的句子“Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped in with ‘That’s what I say.’ I hadn’t known that she — or I — could be funny, or that her character was important in moving the plot along. (想象一下，每当我插嘴说‘我就是这么说的’时，沃森小姐都能让观众哄堂大笑，我有多惊讶。我不知道她——或者我——可以很有趣，也不知道她的这个角色在推进剧情中很重要)”可知，作者扮演的沃森小姐很受欢迎、很成功。所以D项“My Miss Watson turned out to be a hit.(我的沃森小姐很受欢迎)”符合题意。故选D项。

【19题详解】

由空格前的句子“Each person, onstage and backstage, is essential in theater. Without everyone doing their part, the play would be dull as dirt.(在戏剧中，台上和后台的每个人都是必不可少的。如果没有每个人都各司其职，这出戏就会枯燥乏味)”可知，作者认为在戏剧中，台上和后台的每个人都是必不可少的。而根据空格后的句子“If everyone’s a star then nothing gets done. It’s all noise and chaos.(如果每个人都是明星，那么什么都做不了。到处都是噪音和混乱)”可知，作者把演戏和生活联系在一起，生活中也不可能人人都是明星。所以，空格处的句子应该是一个承上启下的句子，A项“So it is in life.(在生活中也是如此)”符合题意。故选A项。

【20题详解】

由第四段的句子“Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped in with ‘That’s what I say.’ I hadn’t known that she — or I — could be funny, or that her character was important in moving the plot along. (想象一下，每当我插嘴说‘我就是这么说的’时，沃森小姐都能让观众哄堂大笑，我有多惊讶。我不知道她——或者我——可以很有趣，也不知道她的这个角色在推进剧情中很重要)”可知，作者扮演的沃森小姐很受欢迎、很成功。再由空格前的句子“And so I believe all children should get the opportunity to play Miss Watson, to become someone they didn’t know they wanted to be.(所以我认为所有的孩子都应该有机会扮演沃森小姐，成为一个他们不知道自己想成为的人)”可知，作者认为所有的孩子都应该有机会扮演沃森小姐，也就是说所有的孩子都有机会成功。所以G项“I would hope all children could be a hit in life.(我希望所有的孩子都能在生活中成功)”符合题意。故选G项。

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了鲸鱼体积逐渐变大的原因。

【36题详解】

考查现在分词。句意：蓝鲸，体重甚至超过了最大的恐龙，是有史以来最大的动物。动词weigh“重量为”与主语whales“鲸鱼”为主谓关系，故使用现在分词形式作后置定语。故填weighing。

【37题详解】

考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词是animal，关系词在从句中作主语，且先行词前有形容词最高级修饰，应用关系代词that，故填that。

【38题详解】

考查代词的宾格。句意：“突然之间，我们看到它们变得非常大。”科学家Nick Pyenson说。空处作动词see的宾语，应用人称代词的宾格形式，故填them。

【39题详解】

考查名词复数。句意：他和其他的研究人员最近就鲸鱼体型大小发表了一篇文章。researcher研究人员，可数名词，other后接可数名词的复数形式，表示“其他的研究人员”。故填researchers。

【40题详解】

考查主语从句。句意：科学家们认为，导致鲸鱼长得如此之大的原因是大约300万年前地球气候的变化。分析句子可知，believe后是省略that的宾语从句，空处引导主语从句，引导词在主语从句中作主语，指物，应用连接代词what引导，故填what。

【41题详解】

考查副词。句意：这一变化导致食物变得更容易获得。此处应用副词形式easily，修饰后面的形容词available“可获得的”。故填easily。

【42题详解】

考查不定冠词。句意：即将到来的冰河时代使海水变冷，带来了更多的营养物质，因此对大型鲸鱼来说有了更多的食物。age在句中用作可数名词，此处泛指“即将到来的冰河时代”，应用不定冠词，且oncoming是以元音音素开头，应用an，首字母应大写。故填An。

【43题详解】

考查一般过去时。句意同上。此处是and连接的并列谓语动词，句子是一般过去时，空处应和made保持一致，用动词过去式。故填brought。

【44题详解】

考查形容词比较级。句意：能够快速吃掉大量食物的鲸鱼幸存下来，并且变得更大。根据句意可知，吃得多的鲸鱼存活下来，体型变得更大，而且前文一直探讨的是体积的变大，故此处应该使用形容词比较级。故填larger。

【45题详解】

考查过去完成时。句意：“在接下来的三四百万年里，蓝鲸的体型比原来大了10倍。”科学家们说。结合句意可知，此处be表示的动作发生在动词“grew”之前，表示过去的过去，故用过去完成时。故填had been。

【答案】Possible versions：

[1]

Anna walked directly to the police station. After figuring out what had happened, the policemen kept note of her information and thought highly of her. She felt a little shy and said, “The huge money would be a great help for me to get through the difficulties, but the owner would get into great trouble, instead.” Stepping out of the station, Anna felt a fresh breeze on her face, making her relieved and comfortable.

Seeing Anna's surprised look, Juan told her that he was the owner of the bag and he came to show his thanks. That morning, because of the sudden rain, he was so hurried to get on the taxi that he lost his bag. "Thank you so much for your help." Juan said to Anna and then turned to Molly, handing her the boxes "Here you are, little girl." After opening the boxes, Molly cried with great joy, "Mom, look! Here it is! The doll Father Christmas brings me!" Looking at her happy daughter, Anna smiled, murmuring "Maybe there is a Father Christmas!"

[2]

She held the bag tightly and walked firmly. “The owner must have had a tough night.” A quarter later, Anna found herself in the police station. She handed the bag to the receptionist and said, “I found this bag in the road yesterday. Maybe you can help to find its owner.” Seeing the bundles of money inside, the policeman said in great admiration to Anna, who was filling out the firm, “You must be an angel.”

“Juan? You are...” Anna said in a confused voice. “Anna, I am the owner of the bag.” Juan said gratefully. “What a coincidence!” Anna exclaimed! Juan went on explaining that he had just sold his mother’s house on the edge of town to pay for his mother’s treatment. “I don’t know how to show my thankfulness. And these are for you and Molly. May you merry Christmas.” Later in the night, Molly exclaimed in great excitement when she was unwrapping the box--it was the very doll she wanted! Anna smiled, “Maybe there is a Father Christmas!”

[3]

She walked fast but gracefully to the destination, bathed in the warm sunshine. As a moral person, honesty and justice always dominated her. She would always follow her heart even in heavy debt. On arriving there, she told the police what had happened on that dark and stormy night and handed in the massive amount of money. Two policemen kept necessary records seriously, spoke highly of her and promised to find its owner as soon as possible. A deep sense of pride flooded over Anna when she left the station and headed for work.

Anna invited him in and Molly greeted him happily. After being seated there, Juan explained he was almost crushed when he found his money missing. It was Anna’s selfless behavior that lighted up his world. Throwing them a warm smile, Juan handed them gifts. Unwrapping the gifts, Molly cried out of joy, “The pretty doll in the window. Father Christmas!” Juan hugged Molly, giving her a kind and fatherly look. At the very moment, they seemed like and might be one family.

[4]

With the money carefully packed in her handbag, she quickened her pace. On arrival at the police station, she briefly told the officer what had happened and hoped they could help find the owner. Police officer noted down her information. Leaving the station, she felt a fresh wind on her face, a sense of satisfaction filling her, even greater than paying off her debts and buying the doll for Molly.

Seeing so many gifts, she politely declined, “You’ve already helped me a lot.” "But you deserve more!" said Juan. It turned out that Juan was the owner of the money. He finally sold his mother's house but he lost the money on the way back because of the sudden rain. Thanks to Anna's help, he got the money back. At the very moment, Molly, who was unwrapping the gift, let out a cry of joy, “Mummy, it’s the doll! Uncle Juan must have met Father Christmas!” Anna nodded, “Yes, my dear”, looking into Juan’s eyes and smiling.

[5]

That’s where they found the bag last night. She held the “Lost and Found” board she prepared beforehand, looking around anxiously. Soon after, she saw Juan was coming up. “Hello, Anna. I finished the sale of my mother’s house yesterday, but I realized I lost the bag of money this morning. I wonder whether...” “Oh, yes, how much money in it then?” After making sure of the right owner, Anna returned the money to Juan.

“Hello, Juan, welcome!” Anna smiled shyly. “Hi, Molly, this is for you.” Juan handed in the bigger box. “Is it from Father Christmas?” “Sure!” Anna and Juan responded almost at the same time. At the sight of the doll she had been dreaming of, Molly grinned. “Thank you, Father Christmas!” Anna whispered to Juan gratefully.

(Then Juan passed the smaller box to Anna. Opening the box, Anna’s face flushed red. “If I make a proposal to your mom, what would you say, dear Molly?” “Well...,” Molly nodded her opinion with a smile.)
