Ⅱ.阅读理解
When hunger pains strike a shark，does it simply swim around aimlessly until it comes across a meal? Scientists who have studied the diving behavior of sharks, turtles, fish, and other marine predators (食肉动物) now suggest that these animals are a bit more strategic. They appear to follow a special type of random motion, known as a Levy walk.
Ecologists have long studied how animals find food，with some exploring whether simple rules could explain their hunting behavior. In 1996, one team claimed that wandering albatrosses perform Levy walks，which are characterized by a particular distribution of movement lengths that include many short­distance jumps and rare long jumps. Others then found that many animals used this search strategy, too. But last fall，scientists－including authors of the original 1996 report—reported that the original albatross data were flawed. They also cast doubt on most claims of Levy walks by animals, condemning the small data sets analyzed and a key statistical method many groups used.
The tables have turned again, however. Behavioral ecologist David Sims and his colleagues have found evidence of Levy Walks from depth—sensing recorders they had fixed to 31 large marine predators. As part of the European Census of Marine Life, they analyzed the vertical motion in more than a million dives as the animals obviously hunted for food.
Using various statistical methods, they showed that during the food­hunting，most animals examined seemed to perform vertical Levy walks, with many short dives with an occasional longer dive, some hundreds of meters deep. Sims argues that his team's vast data sets and the use of diverse statistical analyses make their study “the most believable evidence for Levy­like movement.”
The study is convincing, says ecologist Frederic Bartumeus of Princeton University. He says that he's impressed with the amount of data Sims' s team analyzed and predicts that the study will shift the debate from whether animals perform Levy walks to when they use this strategy and why：“It's going to make biologists less suspicious about the existence of these patterns.”
1．Which of the following animals may not be studied by the ecologists?
A．Albatrosses. B．Turtles.
C．Whales. D．Tigers.
【解析】　文中提到，生态学者研究过albatrosses(信天翁)，turtle(海龟)和whale(鲸)，没提到tiger(虎)。
【答案】　D
2．The underlined word “flawed”probably means________.
A．missed B．faulty
C．stolen D．proved
【解析】　下文提到，一些研究数据受到质疑，所以画线单词所在的句子的意思是“原始的信天翁数据是有缺陷的”，故选B。
【答案】　B
3. Why did some scientists cast doubt on Levy walks by animals?
A．Because the authors of the 1996 report made a serious mistake.
B．Because the data sets other scientists analyzed were not convincing.
C．Because they doubted about the statistical method other scientists used.
D．Because they didn't believe what David Sims said.
【答案】　C
4．From the passage we can learn that________.
A．David Sims is quite confident of their research result
B．David Sims and his colleagues didn't make enough research
C．Frederic Bartumeus is a member of Sims' research group
D．the existence of Levy walk is still doubtful
【解析】　按文意，B项和D项所述不符合事实；而C项文中说Frederic Bartumeus 是某大学的研究人员，并没说是David Sims 的研究小组成员。故选A，David Sims 对自己的研究成果很自信，因为他有the most believable evidence (最可信的证据)。
【答案】　A
Ⅲ.任务型阅读
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。(注意：每空只填1个单词)
Perhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily the case, however. You can receive better grades if you want to. Yes，even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here's how：
1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meeting, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn't occupy all of the free time on the schedule. It's important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well.
2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.
3. Skim before you read. This means looking over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these portions. Skimming helps double your reading speed and improves your comprehension as well.
4. Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.
5. Study regularly. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class. Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about. Read about these points in your textbook. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performance on test.

6. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so don't worry about a single test.Tests provide grades, and they also let you know what you need to spend more time studying, and they help make your knowledge permanent.
There are other techniques that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. Talk with your classmates about their study techniques and share some helpful ones with them. Improving your study habits will improve your grades.
