A famous singer had been contracted to sing, and ticket sales were booming. In fact, the night of the concert found the house packed and every ticket sold. The feeling of excitement was in the air as the house manager took the stage and said, “ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your enthusiastic support. I am afraid that due to illness, the lady whom you've all come to hear will not be performing tonight. However, we have found a suitable substitute we hope will provide you with comparable entertainment.” The crowd groaned in disappointment and failed to hear the announcer mention the standin's name. The environment turned from excitement to disappointment. The standin performer gave the performance everything she had. When she finished, there was nothing but an uncomfortable silence. No one applauded. Suddenly, from the balcony, a little boy stood up and shouted, “Mummy, I think you are wonderful！” The crowd broke into thunderous applause. We all need people in our lives who are willing to stand up once in a while and say, “I think you are wonderful”．

第一节：(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
The German city of Hamburg has announced plans to become carfree within the next two decades. It is an ambitious idea, but city officials obviously feel that the personal motorcar does not fulfill a function that walking, biking and taking public transport cannot. The goal of Hamburg's project is to replace roads with a green network, which will allow people to navigate through the city without the use of cars.
Banishing the car from urban areas is becoming a common trend in many European cities. London imposes a “congestion charge” on private vehicles entering the city centre during rush hours. Copenhagen is building bicycle superhighways radiating out from the city centre. These developments combined may make worrying reading for driving enthusiasts. Is the time of the personal car over?
In the century since the Ford Model T was introduced in 1908, global vehicle numbers have swollen to well over a billion. But according to recent research, the growth may have stopped.
According to Professor Michael Sivak, at the University of Michigan, “motorization” in the US might have reached a peak in 2008, and that the figures have been on the decline since.
“New York, Washington, Boston, Philadelphia, each have more than thirty percent of households without a light duty vehicle，” says Sivak. In fact, the figures show that fiftysix percent of households in New York (which top the list) don't have a car. “I think that will be surprising to most people. It was surprising to me, and I am in the business.”
Sivak thinks a number of factors could be contributing to the trend, including working from home and the movement of populations back to city centers. In China, Beijing and Shanghai are looking at plans to limit the number of new vehicles being registered to control growth. It's a movement more cities are looking towards, particularly in the US.
21．Why does Hamburg launch the “carfree” program?
A. To build a greener environment.
B. To fix a worldwide road network.
C. To call on people to take exercise.
D. To replace the public transport.
22．The underlined word “banishing” in Paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “________”．
A. putting out B. giving away
C. driving away D. setting out
23．What does Michael Sivak think of the result of his research?
A. Terrifying. B. Amazing.
C. Exciting. D. Disappointing.
24．What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A. Most people like to work in the countryside.
B. It is only big cities that are taking action.
C. Many factors contribute to the trend.
D. Effective rules have come into effect.

The Most Wonderful Islands
The Palm Islands are the largest artificial islands in the world and are under construction in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. They are being developed as tourist, leisure, and residential resorts, and will increase the coastline of the country by 120 kilometres.
After four years of planning and careful consideration of the environmental issues, construction started in 2001. Dutch engineers with experience of reclaiming land from the sea were employed in the building of the first two islands. The site for all three islands is an area of the sea where the water is not very deep. Sand is taken from the seabed and sprayed into the construction site. Although the shallow water facilitates this process, the islands are still very exposed to the currents and tidal movements of the sea. Rocks are used to hold the sand in place resulting in a large crescent(月状的)structure. This acts as a breakwater and protects the islands from the sea.
The first two islands are in the shape of date palm trees and consist of a trunk and 17 frond, or leaves coming off the trunk. The first island, named Palm Jumeirah, has three fivestar hotels in the trunk, and luxury homes in the leaves. It is astonishing that when these homes went on sale in 2004, they were all sold within three days.
The second palm, Jebel Ali, was started in 2002 and is designed to be an entertainment centre. Six marinas(小游艇船坞) are planned, with a water theme park, and homes built on stilts(桩柱) in the water.
The Palm Deira planned to be the largest of the three islands, with a length of 14 km and a width of 8.5 km, an area larger than the city of Paris. It will consist of residential properties, marinas, shopping malls, sports facilities, and clubs. These will be open to both residents and tourists.
More artificial islands, the World Islands, are now being constructed near the Palm Jumeirah. They consist of 300 private islands grouped into the shape of the continents of the world and will be used for estates, private homes, community islands, and resorts.
Unquestionably, these artificial islands are one of the wonders of the modern world. They will also maintain Dubai's status as one of the leading tourist destinations in the region.
25．According to the passage, all the following are right EXCEPT ________.
A．Some Dutch engineers are experienced in reclaiming land from the sea
B．The islands are being built in the shallow water of the sea
C．All the luxury homes on Palm Jumeirah were sold
D．The World Islands are bigger than the Palm Jumeirah
26．The underlined word “facilitates” in the second paragraph probably means ________.
A．holds back B．makes easier
C．slows down D．leads to
27．What is the passage written for?
A．To introduce the wonderful artificial islands.
B．To show how to build artificial islands.
C．To offer a travel service for tourists.
D．To prove the Palm Islands are the largest artificial islands in the world.
答案与解析
位于迪拜的棕榈岛是世界上最大的人工岛，它们正在建设当中，将会在人工岛上开发旅游、休闲、住宅等项目。棕榈岛由朱美拉棕榈岛(The Palm Jumeirah)、阿里山棕榈岛、代拉棕榈岛和世界岛等四个岛屿群组成。
25．D 推理推断题。依据其次段“Dutch engineers with experience of reclaiming land from the sea”可知A项正确；依据其次段“The site for all three islands is an area of the sea where the water is not very deep.”可知B项正确；依据第三段“they were all sold within three days”可知，全部的房子在三天内就售完了，C项正确，故选D。
26．B 词义猜想题。依据画线词后“the islands are still very exposed to the currents and tidal movements of the sea”可知，尽管浅滩有利于施工，但是岛屿照旧会受到海流和潮汐的影响，故选B。
27．A 写作意图题。依据第一段“The Palm Islands are the largest artificial islands in the world and are under construction in Dubai，... They are being developed as tourist, leisure, and residential resorts”可知，文章主要介绍了一些在建的人工岛屿，故选A。
C
“Plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperature, humidity and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide，” said researchers from the National University of Singapore.
45 percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult sizes than they did
