A
I hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling, I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching at (attempting to seize) one another’s hands for reassurance. They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up crowded round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon（蚕茧）into a larger cocoon It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path. But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come－with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.
41. The underlined word “it” (Paragraph 1) refers to ______. A. parents’ complaint B. children’s rebellion C. parents’ disagreement D. children’s reassurance
42. Many teenagers think they are brave enough to act on their own, but in fact, most of them ______. A. lack firm trust in themselves B. are very much afraid of getting lost
C. dare to deal with problems by themselves
D. have much difficulty in understanding each other 43. The writer thinks that advertisements ______. A. give new directions in music B. produce an effect on teenagers
C. help industry develop a teenage market D. make all teenagers wear the same clothes
44. In the writer’s opinion, during the teenage years, one should learn to ______. A. find one’s real self B. learn from others around you
C. get into the right season and become popular D. be different from others in as many ways as possible 45. The purpose of this passage is to ______.

A. tell readers how to be popular with people B. teach parents how to control and guide their children C. remind readers to understand and respect each other
D. encourage teenagers to learn to decide things for themselves
B Welcome to my Message Board! Subject: Slimming down classics Mr. Handsome 2012-5-12 8:24 AM Mr. Edwards 2012-5-12 9:40 AM Orion Books, which describes there is a market in creating cut-down classics （经典著作）, is slimming down some novels by such great writers as L. Tolstoy, M. Mitchell and C. Bronte. Now, each of them has been whittled down to about 400 pages by cutting 30 to 40 per cent of original, with words, sciences, paragraphs and in a few cases, chapters removed. The first six shortened editions, all priced at ￡6.99 and advertised as great reads “in half the time”, will go on sale next month, with plans for 50 to 100 more to follow. The publishing house believes that modern readers will welcome the shorter versions. Well, I’m publisher of Orion Group. Thanks for your attention, Mr. Handsome. I must say, the idea developed from a “shame” in my office. Each of us was required to confess （承认） to the most embarrassing blanks in his or her reading. I admitted that I had never read Anna Karenina and tried but failed to get through Gone with the Wind several times. One of my colleagues acknowledged skipping （跳读）Jane Eyre. We realized that life is too short to read all the books you want to and we never were going to read these ones. As a leading publishing house, we are trying to make classics convenient for readers but it’s not as if we’re withdrawing the original versions. They are still there if you want to read them. I’m director of the online bookclub www.love reading.co.uk. Mr. Edwards, I think your shortened editions are a breath of fresh air. I’m guilty of never having read Anna Karenina, because it’s just so long. I’d much rather read two 300-page books than one 600-page book. I am looking forward to more shortened classics! I’m from the London independent bookshop Crockatt & Powell. In my opinion, the practice is completely ridiculous. How can you edit the classics? I’m afraid reading some of these books is hard work, and that is why you have to develop as a reader. If people don’t have time to read Anna Karenina, then fine. But don’t read a shortened version and kid yourself it’s the read thing. Ms. Weir 2012-5-12 11:35 AM Mr. Crockatt 2012-5-12 4:38 PM 46. According to the message board, Orion Books ______.
英语 试题卷 第 5 页 共 11 页
A. opposes the reading of original classics B. is embarrassed for cutting down classics
C. thinks cut-down classics have a bright future D. is cautious in its decision to cut down classics
47. In Mr. Edwards’ opinion, Orion Group is shortening classics to ______. A. make them easier to read B. meet a large demand in the market C. increase the sales of literary books D. compete with their original versions 48. By describing the shortened classics as “a breath of fresh air”, Ms. Weir ______. A. speaks highly of the cut-down classics B. shows her love for the original classics C. feels guilty of not reading the classics D. disapproves of shortening the classics 49. Mr. Crockatt seems to imply that ______.
A. reading the classic works is a confusing attempt B. shortening the classics does harm to the original
C. publishing the cut-down classics is a difficult job D. editing the classic works satisfies children’s needs

Antarctica’s icy lakes are home to a surprisingly diverse community of viruses, including some that were previously unidentified.
At first glance, Antarctica’s freshwater lakes don’t seem very hospitable to life. They remain frozen for a good nine months out of the year, and they contain very few nutrients. Some of these lakes have little animal life and are dominated by microorganisms（微生物）, including algaea （海藻）, bacteria, protozoans and viruses.
With few animal and microbial predators (微生物的捕食性动物) around, viruses likely play an important role in controlling the abundance of other microorganisms, the researcher say. However, these viruses have been historically hard to study since many cannot be grown in a laboratory. But thanks to new genome sequencing（基因组系列）technology, scientists can identify viruses without needing to grow them.
“We are just starting to uncover the world of viruses, and this is changing the way we think about viruses and the role they play in microbial ecosystems,” said Antonio Alcami, a researcher from the Spanish Research Council.
A virus is little more than a package of DNA surrounded by a capsule structure. To survive, viruses must hijack, or infect living cells and use the host’s equipment to reproduce.
Alcami and his colleagues analyzed DNA from viruses found in water samples collected from Antarctica’s Lake Limnopolar, a surface lake on Livingston Island. They found nearly 10,000 species, including some small DNA viruses that had never before been identified. In total, the viruses were from 12 different families, some of which may be completely new to science, the researchers suggest.
The results indicate this Antarctic lake supports a virus community that’s more diverse than most aquatic（水生的） environments studied in the world so far--- a surprising find considering that the polar region is generally thought to have low biological diversity due to the extreme environmental conditions. The scientists speculate ( 推测 ) the newly discovered viruses may have adapted specifically to growing in
英语 试题卷 第 6 页 共 11 页
such tough conditions.
The team also found the community of viruses changed greatly depending on the season. When the lake was ice-covered in the spring, the liquid water under the ice was inhabited by mostly small viruses, but in the summer months when the ice melted, the lake was home to mostly larger viruses.
“It looks like a completely different lake in summer,” Alcami said. The scientists think the shift might be due to an increase in algae in the summertime, which the larger viruses infect.
The researchers hope to figure out whether any of the viruses are unique to Antarctica. If so, that would shed light on whether microbial life evolved independently in Antarctica, which has been isolated for millions of years, or they were introduced there more recently.
50. The underlined word hospitable in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______. A. pleasant B. indifferent C. harmful D. complex 51. Why are viruses likely to play an important role in the icy water environment? A. Viruses are stronger and more aggressive than other microorganisms.
B. Viruses are better at attacking other living cells than other microorganisms. C. Viruses survive well in a place with few animal and microbial predators. D. Viruses exist in larger quantities than other microorganisms. 52. What do scientists think of viruses on Antarctica?
A. Their discoveries of viruses there have made them change the way they think about viruses. B. They were not surprised at all to find such a large quantity of viruses in an icy lake. C. They think the viruses they found on Antarctica may do harm to people on earth. D. They believe the discoveries of new viruses may help them find cure of diseases. 53. Which of the following about the viruses is NOT correct?
A. 10,000 species of viruses including some newly-identified ones were found in the lake. B. The community of viruses changed greatly depending on the season.
C. Scientists have found that many new viruses discovered there are unique to Antarctica.
D. The boom of larger viruses in summer might have something to do with an increase in algae. 54. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A research center was established on Antarctica by scientists. B. Thousands of more deadly viruses have been found on Antarctica.
C. A huge diverse community of viruses have been found in a lake on Antarctica. D. Viruses on Antarctica have made scientists realize that viruses are important.

I was a freshman in college when I met the Whites. They were completely different from my own family, yet I felt at home with them immediately. Jane White and I became friends at school, and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin.
In my family, it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened. “Who did this?” my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen.
“This is all your fault, Katharine,” my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke.
From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told on each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table.
英语 试题卷 第 7 页 共 11 页
But the Whites didn’t worry about who had done what. They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives. The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.
In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York. The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently turned sixteen. Proud of having a new driver’s license, Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip. She showed off her license to everyone she met.
The big sisters shared the driving of Sarah’s new car during the first part of the trip, but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take over. Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat. After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel. She came to a crossroads with a stop sign. Whether she was nervous or just didn’t see the sign no one would ever know, but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping. The driver of a large truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car. Jane was killed immediately.
I was slightly injured. The most difficult thing that I’ve ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died. Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.
When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head; Amy’s leg was broken. They hugged us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters. They wiped away the girls’ tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches（拐杖）.
To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simply said, “We’re so glad that you’re alive.”
I was astonished. No blame. No accusations.
Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.
Mrs. White said, “Jane’s gone, and we miss her terribly. Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back. But Amy has her whole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister’s death?”
They were right. Amy graduated from the University of California and got married several years ago. She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students. She’s also a mother of two little girls of her own, the oldest named Jane.
55. The author of the passage is ______. A. Mrs. White’s niece B. Jane’s school friend C. The Whites’ cousin D. Sarah’s friend from college 56. How did the author’s parents differ from the Whites?
A. The author’s parents were less caring. B. The author’s parents were less loving.
C. The author’s parents were less friendly. D. The author’s parents were less understanding. 57. How did the accident occur?
A. Amy didn’t stop at a crossroads and a truck hit their car. B. Amy didn’t know what to do when she saw the stop sign. C. Amy didn’t slow down so their car ran into a truck. D. Amy didn’t get off the highway at a crossroads.

58. The accident happened in ______. A. Florida B. California C. South Carolina D. New York 59. The Whites did not blame Amy for Jane’s death because ______.
A. they didn’t want Amy to feel ashamed and sorry for the rest of her life B. Amy was badly injured herself and they didn’t want to add to her pain C. they didn’t want to blame their children in front of others D. Amy was their youngest daughter and they loved her best 60. From the passage we can learn that ______. A. Amy has never recovered from the shock B. Amy changed her job after the accident C. Amy lost her memory after the accident D. Amy has lived quite a normal life
第二节： 下面文章中有5个段落需要添加小标题（第61~65题）。 请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F) 中选出适合各段落的小标题，并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
A. The importance of wearing uniforms. B. Practical problems of wearing uniforms.
C. Lack of variety---one of the disadvantages of wearing uniforms. D. Wearing uniforms is respected in America. E. Wearing uniforms looks more professional. F. Practical benefits of wearing uniforms. 61.
Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States? 62.
Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform?
63.
Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible. They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes. 64.
Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. 65.
英语 试题卷 第 9 页 共 11 页
Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.
