試題分析：當(dāng)被問到人生中什么最重要時，人們往往會提到友誼。的確，友誼能照亮我們的人生，但是友誼越深厚，就越可能有分歧。本文主要講述了當(dāng)友誼出現(xiàn)分歧和裂痕時，如何去挽救處于崩潰邊緣的友誼。在本文中作者給出了幾條建議，比如把分歧坦白地講出來，就能夠取得彼此的諒解，能挽救這段友誼。
1.A名詞辨析。A. friendship友誼； B．love 愛； C．relationship 關(guān)系； D．care關(guān)心。在下文中多次提到friends，friendship等，而且根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容可知文章的中心內(nèi)容是談?wù)撚颜x，故答案選B。
2.D．名詞辨析。A. wealth 財富； B．gold 黃金； C．jewellery 珠寶； D．treasure寶藏，珍寶。從情理可知真正的友誼是一種財富，wealth是不可數(shù)名詞，而gold和jewellery指具體的物品，故答案選D。
3.C副詞辨析。A.Personally個人地； B．Naturally 自然地； C．Unfortunately不幸地； D．Luckily幸運地。上文提到友誼是一種財富，而下文表述的內(nèi)容卻是好朋友之間容易產(chǎn)生分歧，所以這是不幸的事情，選C。
4.A名詞辨析。．A.result 結(jié)果； B．pace 步伐，腳步；C．future未來； D．minute分鐘。根據(jù)句子后部分內(nèi)容可知這是朋友之間產(chǎn)生分歧后造成的結(jié)果，選A。句意：結(jié)果可能就是你所不希望的情況---友誼的結(jié)束。
5.B．動詞辨析。A.finished 完成； B．mended 修理； C．changed改變； D．prevented防止。上文提到朋友間產(chǎn)生分歧后容易出現(xiàn)友誼的破裂，而此處的“good news”暗示友誼可以重新獲得或者裂痕可以彌補，故答案選B。
6.C名詞辨析。A.discussions討論； B．questions 問題；C．differences 不同，區(qū)別； D．interests興趣，利益。根據(jù)上文內(nèi)容可知友誼的破裂往往是因為朋友間出現(xiàn)的“disagreements.”，所以當(dāng)所有的分歧被當(dāng)面提出來后，一切就可以解決了，選C。
7.D動詞辨析。A.admit承認； B．punish懲罰； C．flee逃離； D．a(chǎn)pologize道歉。根據(jù)情理可知做錯了事情要道歉，而且下文中的When you apologize，也是提示信息，填D。
8.B動詞辨析。．A.blamed責(zé)備； B．wronged 冤枉； C．punished懲罰； D．praised表揚。根據(jù)前句內(nèi)容和even if“即使，盡管”可以判斷作者建議人們做錯事情的時候要道歉，即使是被冤枉的時候也要主動道歉，這樣有益于友誼的保持，下文中的the wronged person也是提示信息，故答案選B．
9.B副詞辨析。A.still仍然； B．even甚至； C．yet 然而；D．ever曾經(jīng)。從語境判斷作者指任何人都會犯錯，即使是最優(yōu)秀的人也一樣，此處表示一種讓步關(guān)系，故答案選B。
10.A動詞辨析。A.takes 帶走； B．gives 給予；C．gets 得到； D．makes制成。固定短語：take the lead“領(lǐng)頭，帶頭”。選A。句意：有時候，如果被冤枉的人首先道歉的話，可能會有更好的結(jié)果。

12.D名詞辨析。A.brother’s 兄弟的； B．father’s 父親的； C．enemy’s敵人的； D．friend’s朋友的。從上文可知文章講述的是如何修復(fù)出現(xiàn)分歧的友誼，所以應(yīng)該從朋友的角度去看問題，選D。
13.B副詞辨析。A.properly 恰當(dāng)?shù)兀籅．finally 最終，最后；C．really 真正地； D．merely僅僅，只。根據(jù)上文引起幾條建議的連接詞First，second ，Third，可以判斷此處填finally，表示順序。
14.C形容詞辨析。A.difficult 困難的； B．hard 艱難的； C．easy 容易的； D．likely可能的。根據(jù)后句中The hard part可以判斷此處指交朋友容易，但是保持友誼難，選C。

Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important, of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household's waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for burying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary materials are collected. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
1.What does the underlined phrase "over-consumption" refer to?
A. Using too much packaging.
B. Recycling too many wastes.
C. Having more material than is needed.
D. Making more products than necessary.
2.The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show_______.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste
B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the fact of packaging overuse
D. the rapid growth of supermarkets
3.According to the text, recycling_________.
A. means burning packaging for energy
B. helps control the greenhouse effect
C. is the solution to gas shortage
D. leads to a waste of land
4.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C. Other products are better packaged than food.
D. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
5.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Needless material is mostly recycled.
B. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
C. People like collecting recyclable wastes.
D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.

Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some forms—football, basketball, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering.
Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks in high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as others, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork.
The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.
A mountain climber continues to improve in skills year by year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty. But it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they perhaps climb with more skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.
1.What sports are popular among people in winter in the passage?
A. Soccer and golf. B. Skiing and skating.
C. Cycling and hockey. D. Mountaineering.
2. The underlined word “passion” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by ______.
A. strong emotion B. good way
C. better feeling D. enough affection
3. Mountaineering is a sport, not a game because_______.
A. it has man-made rules
B. it is too dangerous for climbers
C. it can’t bring people joy or leisure
D. it is free for climbers to use their own methods
4. We know from the passage that _______.
A. mountaineering has no appeal for people
B. physical quality is more important than mental one for climbers
C. a mountain climber passes his best by the age of thirty
D. it is possible for an old man of fifty or sixty to climb the Alps
5.What is the best title for the passage?
A. Sports in winter B. Team work in climbing
C. Mountaineering D. The quality for mountaineering

“I’ve never met a human worth cloning,” says cloning expert Mark Westhusin from his lab at Texas A&M University. “It’s a stupid endeavor.”
That’s an interesting choice of adjective, coming from a man who has spent millions of dollars trying to clone a 13-year-old dog named Missy. So far, he and his team have not succeeded, though they have cloned two cows and a cat.
They just might succeed in cloning Missy soon — or perhaps not for another five years.
Westhusin's experience with cloning animals leaves him upset by all this talk of human cloning. In three years of work on the Missy project, using hundreds upon hundreds of dog's eggs, the A&M team has produced only a dozen or so embryos carrying Missy's DNA. None have survived the transfer to a surrogate（代孕的）mother. The wastage of eggs and the many spontaneously aborted(流產(chǎn)，發(fā)育不全) fetuses（胎）may be acceptable when you're dealing with cats or bulls, he argues, but not with humans. “Cloning is incredibly inefficient, and also dangerous,” he says.
Even so, dog cloning is a commercial opportunity, with a nice research payoff. Ever since Dolly the sheep was cloned in 1996, Westhusin's phone has been ringing with people calling in hopes of duplicating their cats and dogs, cattle and horses. “A lot of people want to clone pets, especially if the price is right,” says Westhusin. Cost is no obstacle for Missy's mysterious billionaire owner; he's put up $3.7 million so far to fund A&M's research.
Contrary to some media reports, Missy is not dead. The owner wants a twin to carry on Missy's fine qualities after she does die. The prototype（原型；雛形）is, by all accounts, athletic, good-natured and super-smart. Missy's master does not expect an exact copy of her. He knows her clone may not have her temperament（氣質(zhì)、性情）. In a statement of purpose, Missy's owner and the A&M team say they are “both looking forward to studying the ways that her clones differ from Missy.”
Besides cloning a great dog, the project may contribute insight into the old question of nature vs. nurture. It could also lead to the cloning of special rescue dogs and many endangered animals.
However, Westhusin is cautious about his work. He knows that even if he gets a dog pregnant, the offspring, should they survive, will face the problems shown at birth by other cloned animals: abnormalities like immature lungs and heart and weight problems~ “Why would you ever want to clone humans,” Westhusin asks, “when we're not even close to getting it worked out in animals yet?”
1.By “stupid endeavor”, Westhusin means to say that ________.
A. human cloning is a foolish undertaking
B. animal cloning is absolutely impractical
C. human cloning should be done selectively
D. animal cloning is not worth the effort at all
2.What does the second paragraph tell us about Westhusin's dog cloning project?
A. Its success is already in sight.
B. It is progressing smoothly.
C. It is doomed to utter failure.
D. Its outcome remains uncertain.
3.By cloning Missy, Mark Westhusin hopes to ________.
A. study the possibility of cloning humans
B. search for ways to modify its temperament
C. find out the differences between Missy and its clones
D. examine the reproductive system of the dog species
4.We learn from the passage that animal clones are likely to have ________.
A. a bad temper
B. defective（有缺陷的、有毛病的）organs
C. immune deficiency
D. an abnormal shape
5.What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Cloning of Missy
B. Scientist Says ‘No’ to Human Cloning
C. Human Cloning Is Dangerous .
D. Westhusin Is Cautious about Cloning

My grandfather came from Hungary and was the only one in his family who se
ttled down in the United States. The rest of his family remained in Europe. When World War I broke out, he seemed to have become another man, downhearted. Such obvious change was not born out of concern for his welfare, but out of fear: if his only son, my uncle, had to go to war, it would be cousin fighting against cousin.
One day in 1918, my Uncle Milton received his draft notice. My grandparents were very upset. But my mother, at the age of 10, felt on top of the world about her soldier brother going off to war. Realizing how he was regarded by his little sister and all of her friends, my uncle bought them all service pins, which meant that they had a loved one in the service. All the little girls were delighted.
The moment came when my uncle and the other soldiers, without any training but all in uniforms, boarded the train. The band played and the crowd cheered. Although no one noticed. I’m sure my grandmother had a tear in her eye for the only son. The train slowly pulled out, but not about a thousand yards when it suddenly paused. Everyone stared in wonder as the train slowly returned to the station. There was a dead silence before the doors opened and the men started to step out. Someone shouted, “The war is over!” For a moment, nobody moved, but then the people heard someone bark orders at the soldiers. The men lined up in two lines, walked down the steps, and with the band playing, marched down the street, as returning heroes, to be welcomed home. My mother said it was a great day, but she was just a little disappointed that it didn’t last a tiny bit longer.
1.What the grandfather was most worried about was ______.
A. the spread of the world war
B. the safety of his two cousins
C. a drop in his living standards
D. his relatives killing each other
2.The underlined phrase “draft notice” means “______”.
A. order for army service B. train ticket for Europe
C. letter of rejection D. note of warning
3.What did the “service pins” （in Para. 2） stand for in the eyes of the little girls?
A. Strength.B. Courage.C. Victory.D. Honor.
4.Which of the following words can best describe the ending of the story?
A. Disappointing. B. Unexpected. C. Uncertain. D. Inspiring.
5.Which of the following statements is True according to the passage?
A. The grandfather felt downhearted because he was afraid of receiving a draft notice.
B. The train was traveling fast to the front when the news came that the war was over.
C. None of the soldiers who got on the train for the front line had been trained in advance.

Traditionally, across the world, boys and girls attend a mixed school, where they study together. But boys' schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.
Boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to correspond to(和…相符) the "boy code" of hiding their emotions to be a "real man".
The findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.
Tony Little, head master of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.
The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when girls do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.
But in single-sex schools teachers can tailor lessons to boys' learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the study's author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.
Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with "boy-focused" approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given "hands-on" lessons where they are allowed to walk around. "Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine（女性的） and prefer the modern genre （類型） in which violence and sexism are major themes," James wrote.
Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel that they had to be "masterful and in charge" in relationships. "In mixed schools, boys feel forced to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means," the study reported.
1.The author believes that a single-sex school would __________.
A. force boys to hide their emotions to be "real men"
B. help boys to be more competitive in schools.
C. encourage boys to express their emotions more freely
D. naturally strengthen boys’ traditional image of a man
2.It is commonly believed that in a mixed school boys __________.
A. behave more responsibly.B. grow up pore healthily.
C. perform relatively better.D. receive a better education.
3. According to Abigail James, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is __________.
A. teaching can be tailored to suit the characteristics of boys
B. boys can focus on their lessons without being distracted
C. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in
D. teaching can be designed to promote boys' team spirit
4. What does the underlined word “acute” in paragraph 8” mean?
A. lovelyB. sharp
C. seriousD. dull
