Hummingbirds have got their name from the distinct “hum” sound made by their rapidly flapping (拍打) wings. The size of the bird decides the number of flaps it can do. The average lifetime of a hummingbird is 3 or 4 years, but some of them have lived beyond 12 years also. They are unique in many ways. Besides the number of rapid flaps they can do per second, they can also fly backwards.
Hummingbirds have an amazing sense of assessing the amount of sugar in the nectar (花蜜) they eat. They feed on the nectar of flowers. Hummingbirds do not feed on flowers whose nectar contains less than 10% sugar. Talk about a sweet tooth! As they cannot sustain themselves on nectar alone because of its poor nutritional value, they also feed on insects and spiders, and hummingbird food mixture that one can make at home.
Attracting hummingbirds to your garden will require a little planning. Plant butterfly bush, mimosa, coral bells, foxglove, morning glory, etc. These flowers attract the hummingbirds due to their high visibility (可見性) and nectar production. Avoid using pesticides (殺蟲劑), as it will not only kill the insects around the flowers, but hurt the hummingbirds as well.
A common food for these birds is the sweettasting sugar syrup (糖漿). Hummingbird food ingredients are just two: sugar and water. Take a large clean bowl, pour in it four cups of hot water, and dissolve one cup of table sugar in it. Stir slowly until all sugar has dissolved.
Hummingbirds, tiny as they are, collect a lot of nutrition. Providing them with hummingbird food mixture made of sugar water is a sure way to get all these beauties humming in your garden.
Hummingbirds will have some little animals for their meal when .
A. they can't find any green plants
B. they can't take in enough nutrition
C. they are bored with eating nectar
D. they are too old to fly
In order to attract hummingbirds, you should .
A. plan high trees
B. grow plants with small flowers
C. grow plants whose flowers are bright in color
D. grow plants coming into flower in the morning
The main idea of the fourth paragraph is .
A. how to prepare food for hummingbirds
B. where hummingbirds can find delicious food
C. hummingbirds can't live for long without sugar
D. hummingbirds like manmade food better than nectar

D
Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.
By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power”.
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journal(日志) of your ideas the next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success.
Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That’s an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem—why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and you’re half way there.
Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often, they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to an understanding. Give it a try.
47.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.A Way on How to Write
B.Increase Your Brain Power Through Writing
C.Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing
D.How to Start Your Writing
48.According to the passage, writing can help you a lot EXCEPT_______.
A.to increase your brain power B.to improve the ability to remember
C.to develop your interest in study D.to strengthen the understanding of a topic
49.The underlined sentence “you’re half?way there” in the fourth paragraph means that_______.
A.you are already successful
B.there’s a long way for you to go to reach your goal
C.you are left wondering what to do
D.you have been on the way to success

A.Writing can cure people of their brain disease.
B.People who can keep all thoughts in mind are more likely to succeed.
C.Writing a book about one topic is the only way to understand it.
D.The more you write, the more logical you will be.

Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.
By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic (邏輯) behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power.”
Try this experiment. Explain how you’ll increase your brain power, even if you have no idea how right now. Just start with anything, and create an explanation. For example, start with “I’ll learn chess,” or “I’ll read an article on the mind every week.” Explain how that will help. You’ll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan, and if you actually do this, you’ll have a better understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now.
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success.

Ⅲ. 閱讀(共兩節(jié),滿分40分)
第一節(jié):閱讀理解(共15小題;每小題2分,滿分30分)
閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,然后從41—55各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
(A)
We're all connected. You can send an e-mail message to a friend, and your friend can pass it on to one of his or her friends, and that friend can do the same, continuing the chain. Eventually, your message could reach just about anyone in the world, and it might take only five to seven e-mails for the message to get there.
Scientists recently tested that idea in a study involving 24,000 people. Participants had to try to get a message forwarded to one of 18 randomly chosen people. Each participant started by sending one e-mail to someone they knew. Recipients could then forward the e-mail once to someone they knew, and so on.
Targets, who were randomly assigned by researchers from Columbia University in New York, lived in 13 countries. They included an Australian police officer, a Norwegian veterinarian, and a college professor.
Out of 24,000 chains, only 384 reached their goal. The rest petered out, usually because one of the recipients was either too busy to forward the message or thought it was junk mail.
The links that reached their goal made it in an average of 4.05 e-mails. Based on the lengths of the failed chains, the researchers estimated that two strangers could generally make contact in five to seven e-mails.
The most successful chains relied on casual acquaintances rather than close friends. That's because your close friends know each other whereas your acquaintances tend to know people you don't know. The phenomenon, known as the strength of weak ties, explains why people tend to get jobs through people they know casually but aren't that close to.
So, start networking and instant messaging now. As they say in show business: It's all about who you know.
41. If you want to get into touch with a stranger in the world, how many e-mails might it take for the message to reach him/her?
A. 5 to 7 |
B. 18 |
C. 13 |
D. 384 |
42. Which of the following is Not true about the test?
A. 24,000 people took part in the study and sent e-mails to people they knew. |
B. The 18 targets were chosen by chance. |
C. About 98.4% of the mails didn’t reach their goal because some people were too busy or they mistook the message for junk mail. |
D. The targets come from 13 countries, such as Australia, Norway and New York. |
43. What does the word “estimate” mean in the passage?
A. make sure |
B. suppose |
C. think over |
D. imagine |
44. Why do people tend to get jobs more easily through casual acquaintances than close friends?
A. Because close friends don’t talk with each other so much. |
B. Because casual acquaintances can help you know more people and make more friends. |
C. Because close friends don’t spend so much time gathering together. |
D. Because casual acquaintances are kinder and more willing to help others. |
45. In which part of a newspaper will readers read this passage?
A. Culture |
B. Entertainment |
C. Information and Technology |
D. Health |
