三、阅读理解 (共20小题; 每小题2分, 满分40分)
A
In a dry desert lies a small seed. It is the seed of a cactus (仙人掌) plant. The seed lies on the ground. It lies there for one year. It is waiting. The cactus seed must wait for rain. But not just any rain. It waits for a heavy rain. It needs a heavy rain so it can grow.
One day, a heavy rain falls. It makes the seed sprout. The small seed then sends out tiny roots. The roots go down into the earth. A new cactus begins to grow. The growing cactus needs food. Its food is in the seed. The seed feeds the cactus as it grows.
The cactus sends out more roots. They go deeper into the earth. There they reach water. Other roots are not so deep. They take water from light rains. Soon the food in the seed is gone. The new cactus must now make its own food. The cactus takes in light from the sun. It takes in air and water. The cactus turns these into food.
For two or more years the cactus grows. Then it is ready to flower. The cactus produces a bud (花蕾). The bud is the start of a flower. The bud has hairs on it. The hairs help keep animals away.
Then one day, there is a flower. But it will not stay for long. The cactus needs to save its food and water. So it keeps its flower only a few days. Then seeds fall from the flower. They fall to the ground. Here they lie for a year. They lie and wait for rain. One day, they will grow into a new cactus.
36. Why does the seed of a cactus lie on the ground?
A. To wait for a heavy rain to grow.
B. To avoid being hurt by animals.
C. To wait for a strong wind to send it far away.
D. To continue its growth after falling from the cactus.

A. the wind B. the seed C. the heavy rain D. the dry earth
38. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. The roots of the cactus can’t go deep into the earth.

Leatherback Turtles are found in most warm seas, often migrating from one continent to another. They are the largest of all turtles, sometimes weighing more than 1,500 pounds. Unlike other turtles, their ribs and backbones are not joined to the shell. These turtles have huge strong front flippers which can propel them in the water at high speeds.
Leatherback Turtles have a very unique way of laying their eggs. From August to September, female turtles travel vast distances just to lay their eggs on the exact spot where they had laid their eggs previously. As soon as they reach the shore, they will not rest until they have arrived at their nesting grounds. By using their giant flippers, they dig a deep hole in the sand. In this hole, they will lay about 100 to 200 soft rubbery eggs . Once they are finished, the turtles will cover up the hole with sand and return to the sea, only coming next year to the same spot to dig another hole to lay eggs.
The heat of the sun will warm the eggs and after a period of time, the hatchlings will climb out of the sand and crawl towards the sea. Even though many turtles are hatched, many do not survive the first few weeks of their lives. There are many animals such as seagulls who prey on the young turtles. The baby turtle’s hard shell has not yet formed and has no hardened defense against the attackers. Some turtles are caught in fishermen’s nets and left out to die. Other turtles are caught between the wastes man produced such as plastic bags and eventually die of suffocation (窒息).
To make matters worse, Leatherback Turtles are hunted for their ornamental shell and their eggs are considered delicacies. Illegal gathering for eggs to be sold in markets also helps in the decline of these turtles.
41. Leatherback Turtles are different from other turtles because ______.
A. they are large in size
B. their ribs and backbones are not joined together
C. their ribs and backbones are not joined to the shell
D. they have front flippers
42. When Leatherback Turtles reach the shore, they will ______.
A. take a rest before laying eggs B. find their old hole to lay eggs
C. lay eggs immediately D. find their nesting grounds first
43. Which of the following is NOT a threat to Leatherback Turtles?
A. Seagulls. B. Hunting. C. Waste. D. Weather.
44. We learn from the last paragraph that Leatherback Turtles ______.
A. are well protected now B. need urgent protection
C. are allowed to be hunted by law D. still exist in large numbers
45. The underlined word “hatchlings”in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.
A. newly laid eggs B. newly born turtles
C. mother turtles D. big turtles
C
Learning to play a musical instrument can change your brain. A US review has found that musical training can improve speech and foreign language skills.
Although it was suggested in the past that listening to Mozart’s music or other classical music make you smarter, there has been little evidence to show that music can boost brain power.
But a data-driven review by Northwestern University has pulled research together that links between musical training and learning can affect skills including language, speech, memory, attention and even vocal emotion.
Researcher Nina Kraus said the data strongly suggested that the neural (神经中枢的) connections made during musical training also prepared the brain for other aspects of human communication.
“The effect of musical training suggests that music is a resource that tones (增强) the brain for auditory (听觉的) fitness and thus requires society to re-examine the role of music in encouraging individual development.” the researchers said in their study.
Kraus said learning musical sounds could improve the brain’s ability to adapt and change and also enable the nervous system to provide constructive patterns that are important to learning.
The study, published in Nature Reviews Neuroscience, showed the improvement of research in recent years focusing on the effect of musical training on the nervous system which could have strong impact on education.
The study found that playing an instrument prepares the brain to choose what is related in the complex process that may involve reading or remembering a score, timing issues and coordination (协调) with other musicians.
“A musician’s brain selectively enhances information-bearing elements in sound,”Kraus said in a statement. The study also reviewed literature showing, for example, that musicians are more successful than non-musicians in learning to connect sound patterns for a new language with words.
46. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. researches on musical instruments
B. the study of music
C. the effect of classical music D. the benefit of musical training
47. According to the researcher Kraus, musical training contributes to the following EXCEPT ______.
A. body fitness B. the brain’s ability to adapt and change
C. mental concentration D. the ability to communicate
48. It was believed but hasn’t been proved that listening to classical music could ______.
A. boost your intelligence B. improve your speech abilities
C. develop the ability to learn languages well
D. make you feel happy
49. According to the study, musicians are better at learning a foreign language because ______.
A. they are better at remembering a score
B. they are more sensitive to changes
C. they are better at connecting sounds with words in a foreign language
D. they can cooperate better with others
50. Which field might the study have a great effect on?
A. Arts B. Education C. Music D. Medicine
D
According to a recent study, only about one out of four high school’s yearbooks still feature the classic “Most Likely to Succeed” award. The reason is that we’re afraid to give a kid a label that will haunt them for the rest of their life, always pushing them to be a success and making them feel like a failure if they’re not VIPs.
A survey by the website MemoryL also found that about one out of three people who were named “Most Likely to Succeed” in high school say it was a “curse (祸害)” .Two in five say it was an “inspiration”.
Blake Atwood is one of the people who said it was a curse. He was voted “Most Likely to Succeed” by his classmates in 1998, and he works as a copywriter for a law firm now.
I feel sorry for this guy. Not because he’s not successful, but because he doesn’t realize he is. A synonym (同义词) for success is accomplishment. He’s a tax-paying, society-contributing member of the human race. He gets up every morning with a roof over his head, food on his table and a family that loves him. What else does he need?
Did he reach every goal he had for his life? Probably not, but not all goals are achieved. The secret of goals is that the victory is sometimes not in the attainment (达到)of them, but in the struggle and journey to achieve them along the way. What did you learn? Who did you meet? What impact did you make on them ?
