第2部分：閱讀判斷（第16～22題，每題1分，共7分）

What makes an earthquake happen? The rock of the earth's crust (地殼) may have a

'fault', a kind of break in the surface. The blocks which make up the earth move, and sometimes this may cause the sides of the fault to move up and down or lengthways (縱向地) against each other. When one piece of rock starts to rub on another with great force, a lot of energy is used. "l-his energy is changed into vibrations (振動(dòng)) and it is these vibrations that we feel as an earthquake. The vibrations can travel thousands of kilometers and so an earthquake in Turkey may be felt in Greece.

As soon as the earthquake starts, students should get under the desks immediately and wait until the teacher tells them it is safe to come out. The teacher should, at the same time, go immediately to the teacher's desk, get underneath (在……下面) it and stay there till the danger is over. Students must not argue with the teacher or question instructions.

 

As soon as the tremors (震動(dòng)) stop, all students should walk towards the exit and go straight to the school playground or any open space such as a square or a park. They must wait there until the teacher tells them it is sale to go.

If you are at home when the earthquake occurs, get immediately under the table in the living room or kitchen. Choose the biggest and strongest table you can find. You must not go anywhere near the window and don't go out onto the balcony (陽(yáng)臺(tái)). Once the tremors have stopped, you can come out from under the table, but you must leave the building straight away. You should walk down the stairs and should not use the lift - there may be a power cut as a result of the earthquake and you could find yourself trapped inside the lift for hours.

 

If you are in the street when the earthquake takes place, do not stand near buildings, fences or walls - move away as quickly as possible and try to find a large open space to wait in. Standing under trees could also be dangerous.

 

16 People knew long ago how an earthquake starts

A Right         B Wrong         C Not mentioned

 

17 Thousands of people were killed during an earthquake in Turkey.

A Right         B Wrong         C Not mentioned

 

18 As soon as an earthquake occurs, students should leave the building

A Right         B Wrong         C Not mentioned

 

19 Students should go to the school playground or an open space once the tremors stop.

A Right         B Wrong         C Not mentioned

 

20 If you are at home when an earthquake occurs, stand near a big table

A Right         B Wrong         C Not mentioned

 

21 The best way to leave the building during an earthquake is to get into a lift

A Right         B Wrong         C Not mentioned

 

22 If you are in the street when an earthquake occurs, stay in a large open space

1　It is important to make your child interested in science from an early age. Most young children ask a lot of questions and you should give careful scientific answers. Don't only give facts, but try to give explanations as well.

2　Science is not just knowledge; it is a way of thinking, a method of finding out about the world. We see something. We try to explain it, and we test our idea by setting up an experiment. One day you come home and find the plant on the table has fallen over. You think it might be the wind from the open window or the cat, so you close the window, but leave the cat in and see what happens (you can also try leaving the window open and shutting the cat out). Of course, you remember there may be a third explanation.

3　Ask your child to get a piece of string, some salt, a glass of water and an ice cube (冰塊). Tell her to put the ice in the water, and then put one end of the string on the ice, leaving the other end over the side of the glass. Put a little salt on the ice. Wait a minute, and then pull the string; it should be attached to the ice. Ask the child: "what has happened?"

4　Probably she won't know. Ask her whether fresh water or salt water freezes into ice first. If you live near the sea and have a cold winter, she should know fresh water freezes first as she will have seen that happen. Show her how to test the idea by half-filling two paper cups with water, adding salt to one. Then put them in the icebox and check every three minutes. Write the results in a table. The conclusion will be that salt changes the behaviour of water. 'Thinking about the string, we see the salt turned some of the ice into water. Then the salt went away into the water and the ice froze again leaving the string attached.

5　Then you can ask, "Will water with salt boil at the same temperature as water without salt?" She can think, tell you her idea and (taking care because of the heat) you can test it in the kitchen.

第4部分：閱讀理解（第31～45題，每題3分，共45分）

下面有3篇短文后有5道題。請(qǐng)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，為每題定1個(gè)最佳選項(xiàng)。

 

     Are you a real grump (脾氣壞的人) in the mornings? Do you wake up every day feeling tired, angry and upset, and all too ready to flit the snooze (瞌睡) button? If so, then a new alarm clock could be just for you.

     The clock, called SleepSmart, measures your sleep cycle, and waits for you to be in your lightest phase of sleep before waking you up, Its makers say that should ensure you wake up feeling refreshed (恢復(fù)精力) every morning.

     As you sleep you pass through a sequence of sleep states - light sleep, deep sleep and REM sleep (快速眼動(dòng)睡眼) - that repeats approximately every 90 minutes. The points in that cycle at which you wake can affect how you feel later, and may even have a greater impact than how long or little you have slept. Being wakened during a light phase means you are more likely to wake up cheerful and full of life and interest.

     SleepSmart records the distinct pattern of brain waves produced during each phase of sleep, via a headband equipped with electrodes (電極) and a microprocessor. This measures electric activity of the wearer's brain, and communicates wirelessly with a clock unit near the bed. You program the clock with the latest time at which you want to be wakened, and it then at the proper time wakes you during the last light sleep phase before that.

     The concept was invented by a group of students at Brown University in Rhode

Island after a friend complained of waking up tired and performing poorly on a test. "As sleep-deprived (剝奪) people ourselves, we started thinking of what to do about it," says Eric Shashoua, a recent college graduate and now chief executive officer of Axon Sleep Research Laboratories, a company created by the students to develop their idea. They have almost finished a prototype and plan to market the product by next year.

 

31  SleepSmart is a clock that

     A enables you to go to sleep.

     B enables you to sleep deeply.

     C enables you to get up early.

D wakes you up during your last light sleep phase

 

32  As you sleep, the headband

     A analyses your sleep cycle every 90 minutes.

     B records the time when you fall into deep sleep.

     C communicates wirelessly with a computer,

D measures the electric activity of your brain.

 

33 What should the sleeper do to make the device work?

     A He should press the snooze button in time,

     B He should turn on the microprocessor in the clock.

     C He should set the latest time for waking up.

     D He should adjust his headband.

 

34 The idea of making such a clock was developed by a group of

     A students at Brown University.

     B teachers at Brown University.

     C sleep-deprived scientists.

D former engineers at Axon Sleep Research Laboratories.

 

35 The word "prototype" (paragraph 5) means

     A "form".

     B "model".

     C "brand".

     D "cycle".

 

 

     When I was a junior, I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking, but he was very nice, attractive and athletic. He had something that I admired very much. He was natural, warm, and sincere.

     I disregarded (不顧) my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning, and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus, or sunbathe (曬太陽(yáng)) on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm. He came from a poor family, but in order to make me happy, he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me. Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model, and the girls envied (妒忌) me. He wasn't a local, but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.

     However, when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation, people began giving me a lot of pressure, saying that a pretty, intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with. This was also what my family thought. He spent the summer in his hometown, so I was all by myself. When he got back, I began finding fault with him. But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away. However, I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.

     I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well. With my good performance at school, I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities. He, on the other hand, did not do so well at school or at work. I had to worry about his living expenses, job and scores.

     Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him. Then we had a quarrel last June~ He was in great pain, and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.

     Graduation time was drawing near, and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown. He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore. I was shocked and looked at him in despair.

     True love happens only once, but I found it out too late.

 

36 When did the author fall in love with the boy?

     A　After she had a quarrel with him.

     B　When she was a junior.

     C　When she was a second-year student.

     C　He always endured her insults.

D　He often bought her presents and meals.

 

38 Who advised her to break up with him?

     A　His parents.

     B　Her teachers.

     G　Her colleagues and friends.

D　Their fellow students.

 

39 Why did he leave her?

     A　Because he could no longer bear her.

     B　Because he hated her.

     C　Because his parents needed taking care of

D　Because he wasn't a local.

 

40 Upon learning that he would leave her, she was

     A　very happy.

     B　extremely joyful.

     C　quite relieved.

     D　in great pain.

 

 

     Recycling is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. But we could do more. People must not see recycling as fashionable, but essential.

     The Japanese are very good at recycling because they live in a crowded country~

They do not have much space. They do not want to share their limited space with rubbish

But even so, Tokyo area alone is estimated to have three million tons of leftover rubbish at present.

     In 1996, the United States recycled and composted (制成肥料) 57 million tons of waste (27% of the nation's solid waste). This is 57 million tons of waste which did not go into landfills and incinerators (焚化爐). In doing this, 7,000 rubbish collection programmes and recycling centres helped the authorities.

     In Rockford, a city in Illinois, US, its officials choose one house each week and check its garbage (廢物). If the garbage does not contain an newspapers or aluminium (鋁) cans, then the resident of the house gets a prize of at least $1,000.

     In Japan, certain cities give children weekly supplies of tissue paper and toilet paper in exchange for a weekly collection of newspapers.

     In one year Britain recycles:

     ?  1 out of every 3 newspapers.

     ?  1 out of every 4 glass bottles and jars (罐子).

     ?  1 out of every 4 items of clothing.

     ?  1 out of every 3 aluminium drink cans.

     In 1999, Hong Kong transported 1.3 million tons of waste to mainland China for recycling. Around 535,000 tons of waste were recycled in Hong Kong itself.

     Over half the things we throw away could be recycled. That means we could recycle

10 times as much as we do now.

     However, recycling needs a lot of organisation and special equipment. Also, there is not much use for some recycled material.

 

41 Which of the following is NOT true of the Japanese?

     A　They have recycled all their waste.

     B　They live in a crowded country.

     C　They are very good at recycling.

D　They have to share their limited space with rubbish.

 

42 How much waste did the US recycle in 1996?

     A　1.3 million tons.

     B　27 million tons.

     C　53 million tons.

     D　57 million tons.

43 Where can people get a big prize for contributing to recycling?

     A　Tokyo.

     B　Rockford.

     C　Hong Kong.

     D　London.

44 In Japan, the newspapers collected by children

     A　are given to poor people.

     B　are used as reading materials.

     C　are recycled.

     D　are used as prizes.

45 Which of the following is NOT true of Britain?

     A　It recycles 1 out of every 3 newspapers each year.

     B　It recycles 1 out of every 4 glass bottles and jars each year

     Vibrating rubber cellphones could be the next big thing in mobile communications. They allow people to press the phone 1:o transmit vibrations along with their           (51) words. According to a research team at the MIT Media Lab in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the idea will make           (52) more fun.

Many mobile phones can already vibrate instead of ringing           (53) you do not want people to know you are getting a call. But these           (54) are too simple for subtle (敏感的) communication,            (55) Angela Chang of the lab's Tangible Media Group. "They're either on or off," she says.

     But when you hold Chang's rubber cellphone, your fingers and thumb wrap around five           (56) speakers. They vibrate           (57) your skin around 250 times per second. Beneath these speakers sit pressure sensors (傳感器), so you can transmit vibration as well as            (58) it. When you squeeze with a finger, a vibration signal is transmitted            (59) your caller's corresponding finger, its speed            (60) on how hard you squeeze.

Chang says that within a few minutes of being given the phones, students were using the vibration feature to           (61) emphasis to what they were saying. Over time, people even began to transmit their own kind of ad hoc (特別的)"Morse code", which they would repeat back to show they were           (62) what the other person was saying.

     Chang thinks "vibralanguages" could function for the same           (63) as texting: sometimes people want to communicate           (64) without everyone nearby knowing what they're saying. "And           (65) actually being able to shake someone's hand when you close a business deal," she says.
