Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension(总题数：0，分数：0.00) 二、Passage 1(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

For centuries Dutch engineers have been fighting a war against water. Their main enemy is the sea. A large part of the country is below sea level. In fact, Holland is also called the \"Netherlands\" which means \"low lando keep out the sea. But in very rough weather the sea may suddenly burst through a dyke. Great damage can be caused by floods when this happens.

Three large rivers are also part of the problem. These rivers are the Rhine, the Maas and the Scheldt. They flow through Holland into the North Sea. They have cut many passages across the country. At low tide, the rivers flow into the sea as usual. But at high tide, the sea can flow into the rivers! This is because the land is so low.

The battles against the water never end, but they have made Holland a bigger and bigger country. In order to prevent floods, the engineers take or reclaim land that was under water. The Dutch have been reclaiming land for seven hundred years.

Land is usually reclaimed from a passage between islands. Two dykes are built across the passage, so they block the water between them. Then the engineers dig long canals and pump the water into them. At low tide, the canals empty the water into the sea.

Because the land is so low, water from the sea and rivers can rise up through the ground. For this reason, the pumps continue working even the land has been drained (that is, when the water has been pumped away). The dykes contain gates, and through these the water is pumped out. In many parts of Holland, pumps must be working all the time. If they stopped, there will be very bad floods.（分数：10.00）

(1).Water is the main threat to Holland because ______.（分数：2.00） A.the sea is too rough

B.the land is lower than the sea √

C.the high and strong dykes can not keep the floods out D.the weather is too rough

解析：[解析] 文章开头提到荷兰工程师们几个世纪以来就一直同水做斗争，这个国家的主要敌人就是大海。接着文章提到“A large part of the country is below sea level. In fact, Holland is also called the \"Netherlands\" which means \"low land\". ”这句话意为“大部分国土都位于海平面以下，而荷兰的国名也表示‘低地’的意思”。很显然，这就是水对于荷兰来说是一个主要威胁的原因。故选B。 (2).\"Netherlands\" means ______.（分数：2.00） A.high land B.land of water C.low land √ D.land of dykes

解析：[解析] 根据第一段第四句话“In fact, Holland is also called the \"Netherlands\" which means \"low land\". ”可知，“Holland”也被称为“Netherlands”，意为“低地”。故选C。 (3).Holland is threatened not only by the sea, but also by ______.（分数：2.00） A.the floods from broken dykes B.the three rivers √ C.the sea tides

D.many passages the three rivers have cut across the country

解析：[解析] 文章第一段主要谈到海洋对荷兰的威胁，而根据第二段第一句话“Three large rivers are also part of the problems. ”可知，三条大河也是荷兰面临的问题的一部分。由此可推知，荷兰也受到三条大河的威胁。故选B。

(4).The Holland claim land from the sea in order to ______.（分数：2.00） A.prevent floods √ B.make their country larger

C.make their country more beautiful D.have more farmland

解析：[解析] 根据文章第三段第二句话“In order to prevent floods, the engineers take or reclaim land that was under water. ”可知，为了防止洪水，工程师们才开拓海平面以下的土地。故选A。 (5).If pumps stop working there will be very bad floods because ______.（分数：2.00） A.the water will run back at high tide B.the sea may break the dykes in rough weather C.the battle against water will never end

D.the land is too low and water can rise up through the drained land √

解析：[解析] 根据文章最后一段前两句“Because the land is so low, water from the sea and rivers can rise up through the ground. For this reason, the pumps continue working...”可知，由于陆地太低，海水和河水会上涨并漫过陆地。正是因为这一原因，抽水泵才要不停地工作。故选D。

三、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

The city has always been an engine of intellectual life, from the 10-century cafes of London, where citizens gathered to discuss chemistry and politics, to the Left Bank bars of modem Paris, where Picasso talked about modern art. Without the metropolis , we might not have had the great art of Shakespeare.

And yet, city life isn\"t easy. Now scientists have begun to examine how the city affects the brain, and the results are depressing. Just being in the urban environment, they have found, impairs (损害) our basic mental processes. After spending a few minutes on a crowded city street, the brain is less able to hold things in memory and suffers from reduced self-control. While it\"s long been recognized that city life is exhausting, this new research suggests that cities actually dull our thinking, sometimes dramatically so.

One of the main forces at work is a complete lack of nature, which is surprisingly beneficial for the brain. Studies have demonstrated, for instance, that hospital patients recover more quickly when they can see trees from their windows, and that women living in public housing are better able to focus when their apartments overlook a lawn. Even these glimpses of nature improve brain performance, it seems, because they provided a mental break from the urban life. This research arrives just as humans cross an important milestone (里程碑). For the first time in history, the majority of people live in cities. Instead of inhabiting wide-open spaces, we\"re crowded into concrete jungles, surrounded by traffic and millions of strangers. In recent years, it has become clear that such unnatural surroundings have important implications for our mental and physical health, and can powerfully alter how we think.（分数：10.00） (1).Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?（分数：2.00） A.The city inspires talented people. B.The city hurts your brain. √

C.The city has many pleasures and benefits. D.The city seriously affects the natural balance.

解析：[解析] 根据文章第二段前两句“And yet, city life isn\"t easy. Now scientists have begun to examine how the city affects the brain, and the results are depressing. ”可知，城市生活并不容易，现在科学家们已经开始研究城市是如何影响人的大脑的，研究结果令人沮丧。联系上下文可知，文章是围绕城市对人的大脑和思维的影响来展开的。故选B。

(2).The word \"metropolis\" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.（分数：2.00）

A.citizen B.nature C.city √ D.stress

解析：[解析] 文章一开头就提到了“城市一直是文明生活的助推器”，并以伦敦和巴黎为例来进行说明，然后提到“如果没有metropolis，我们就不会有莎士比亚的伟大作品了”。根据句子间的逻辑关系可知，“metropolis”应该表示“城市”的意思。故选C。

(3).People have just come to realize that ______.（分数：2.00） A.human attention is a scarce resource B.city life can make people very tired C.the city is an engine of intellectual life D.an urban environment is damaging to the brain √

解析：[解析] 根据文章第二段最后一句“While it\"s long been recognized that city life is exhausting, this new research suggests that cities actually dull our thinking, sometimes dramatically so. ”可知，虽然人们很早就意识到城市生活是令人疲惫的，但是新的研究表明城市生活使我们的思维变得非常迟钝。由此可推知，人们刚刚意识到城市生活对人们大脑和思维的破坏。故选D。

(4).What is the factor mentioned in the third paragraph that helps the hospital patients recover more quickly?（分数：2.00） A.Nature. √ B.Better treatment. C.Experienced doctors. D.Good medicine.

解析：[解析] 根据文章第三段第一句话“One of the main forces at work is a complete lack of nature, which is surprisingly beneficial for the brain. ”可知，城市对人脑造成破坏的一个重要原因就是缺乏自然环境。接着本段分析了自然(nature)的作用，其中包括病人康复这一例子，病人能很快康复是因为自然环境的作用。故选A。

(5).According to the passage, which of the following statement is TRUE?（分数：2.00） A.Different aspects (方面) of an urban environment, such as the crowded street, can lead to an increase in self-control.

B.Small changes in urban design cannot reduce the negative side effects of city fife. C.For the first time in history, the earth\"s population is more urban than rural. √ D.A walk down a busy city street will improve brain performance.

解析：[解析] 根据文章最后一段第一、二句话“This research arrives just as humans cross an important milestone. For the first time in history, the majority of people live in cities. ”可知，该项研究正值人类跨过了一个重要的里程碑之时，有史以来第一次城市人口占了多数。这与选项C的意思一致。故选C。

四、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

My father was a foreman of a sugar-cane plantation in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. My first job was to drive the oxen that plowed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a broomstick. For $1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks.

It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could. I\"ve never been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay.

I was only six years old, but I was doing a man\"s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem, one of the most important things a person can have.

When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle.

The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity I learned working in the field—except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.（分数：10.00）

B.He could go to work on time. C.He should never fail to go to work.

D.He should be respectful and loyal to the people he works for. √

B.Bringing money back home to help the family. √ C.Helping his father with the work. D.All of the above.

C.Running a golf course near his house. D.Both A＆B.

解析：[解析] 根据第四段最后一句话“Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle. ”可知，有时候作者会梦想着通过打高尔夫球赚几千美元，能买一辆自行车。故选A。

五、Passage 4(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the earth\"s post-war era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.

Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong. Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.（分数：10.00） (1).What is the main purpose of this passage?（分数：2.00） A.To look back to the early days of computers.

解析：[解析] 根据第二段第一句“...but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong. ”可知，人们也应该依靠自己韵头脑：在感觉有问题的时候进行检查。由此可推知，作者建议他们对计算机也要有合理的质疑。故选A。。

(4).An \"internal computer\" is ______.（分数：2.00）

A.a computer used exclusively by one company for its own problems B.a person\"s store of knowledge and the ability to process it √ C.the most up-to-date in-house computer a company can buy D.a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable

(5).The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computer is ______.（分数：2.00）

A.challenging √ B.psychological C.dramatic D.malfunctioning

解析：[解析] 纵观整篇文章可知，作者认为目前的问题是非常紧迫和具有挑战性的。故选A。

解析：[解析] “hardly/scarcely...when”是固定搭配，意为“一……就……”。当hardly/scarcely位于句首时，其后的句子要部分倒装。由句中的started可知，hardly/scarcely后面的句子应用过去完成时。no sooner要与than搭配，而不是when。故选项B为正确答案。
