This passage may be taken from .A. a handbook for English learnersB. a guidebook for foreign travellers C. a pocketbook for businessmenD. a storybook for local readersBSeveral years ago climate change was a controversial subject with many people insisting it didnt exist. Today, few people doubt that the climate is changing in uncomfortable and dangerous ways.For me, living on an island off the west coast of Canada, climate change didnt directly affect me. That changed this summer. There are always a few wildfires in the forests of Canada in summer but this year has been exceptionally bad as weve had, for practical purposes, no rain at all. Then the fires started and many families have lost their homes to the flames. In early August we woke up one day to a heavy smoke from the mainland. It was dark for several days. By September, again the sun has been blocked by smoke, this time from Washington and Oregon in the United States. The smoke has covered us for about a week. In the more than twenty years weve never before had this happen. Now weve been blanketed by smoke twice in one summer. The change in our climate is clear and it doesnt bode (预兆) well. Already our seaside town is putting regulations in place and making plans to deal with a rise in sea level. However, if the sea level comes up more than a few meters we could have big problems.I dont pretend to understand all the causes of climate change or the best ways of fixing it if, indeed, it can be fixed. It is, however, becoming increasingly noticeable. Last night we were supposed to be able to see the Northern Lights but the smoke prevented that. But theres some good news. I have just noticed that for the first time in months it is raining.24. When did the author begin to be affected by climate change?A. In August this summer.B. After the smoky days.C. On arriving at the island.D. When the first fire broke out.25. What did the seaside town do with climate change?A. It found the causes.B. It solved the problems.C. It took some measures.D. It made a prediction.26. Whats the good news the author mentioned in the last paragraph?A. Seeing the Northern Lights.B. The coming of the rain.C. The best way to fix the weather.D. The appearance of heavy smoke.27. What is the best title for the passage?A. Climate Change Hits HomeB. Causes of Climate ChangeC. Global Warming Is Less SeriousD. Ways to Deal with the Rising Sea LevelCIs that person really glad to see me? Or is he just being polite? Some people struggle to tell an artificial smile from a truly happy-one. And computers have found this task even more difficult. Recently, researchers have trained a program to detect when a smile is genuine(真诚的).Visual computing researchers at the University of Bradford in the U. K. started with a software for analyzing a changing facial expression. This program can examine a video clip of a human head and identify(确认) specific details around the eyes, cheeks and mouth. Then the program tracks the details relative to each other as the face smiles.Next，the scientists had their program evaluate(评估)two sets of video clips. In one subjects performed posed smiles. In the other, they watched a film that inspired genuine displays of emotion. The program calculated the differences among the subjects faces during the two clips. And it turns out that ones mouth, cheeks and eyes move differently when pretending to smile.In particular, the muscles around the eyes shift 10 percent more for a real smile than they do for a fake one. These results are in the journal Advanced Engineering Informatics. A genuine smile is indeed in the eyes. The computer aids analysis of the exact weight distribution of human smiles across the face.” Hassan Ugail and Ahmad Al-dahoud say.The researchers suggest their work could improve a computers ability to analyze facial expressions and thus to interact more smoothly with humans. But their real accomplishment is in proving Tyra Banks right: You have to smile with your eyes.28.Whats the purpose of the program?A. To tell different smiles.B. To detect human heads.C. To examine human faces.D. To record facial expressions.29. What did the researchers do in the program?A. They performed posed smiles.B. They evaluated a very special software.C. They improved a computers ability.D. They analyzed different video clips.30. What result have the researchers found from the program?A. Smiling with eyes is the most important.B. Eyes reflect whether a smile is real or not.C. Mouth，cheeks and eyes always move the same.D. Muscles move more frequently when people do a faking smile,31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Science. D. Inventions. DDo you love food? Whether youre a foodie or someone who just likes eating, there is so much to choose from. We know that too much of the wrong kind of food can be bad for our health, but for some people having a food allergy means eating certain things can actually be harmful and now, it seems, this is affecting more and more of us.An allergy is caused by the immune system fighting substances in the environment, known as allergens(过敏原), which should be seen as harmless. Food allergies can cause life-threatening reactions, which means people have to spend their lives following strict dietary restrictions and worrying about the ingredients of everything they consume. Allergy specialist Dr Adam Fox says, “If you look back over, say, 30 or 40 years there are much more allergic problems around now than there were.”We often hear about people having allergies to dairy products and to peanuts. Last year a young girl died after suffering a deadly allergic reaction from eating a baguette containing sesame seeds. This led to a call for better food-labelling laws.Research has found that this problem is particularly affecting children. More and more of them are having allergic reactions to certain foodstuffs. Dr Alexandra Santos from Kings College London says “food allergy now affects about 7 percent of children in the UK and 9 percent of those in Australia. Across Europe, 2 percent of adults have food allergies”.So what might be the cause? Dr Santos says the increase in allergies is not simply the effect of society becoming more aware of them and better at diagnosing them; it seems to be more environmental. She says possible factors are “pollution, dietary changes and less exposure to microbes (微生物), which change how our immune systems respond”. A lot of work is being done to try and find a cure, but thats not easy. So for now allergy sufferers must watch what they eat and they must rely on clear and accurate labelling.32.What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Having an imbalanced diet.B. Being allergic to some certain food.C. Consuming too much of harmful food.D. Fighting substances in the environment.33.Which of the following writing skills is NOT used in paragraph 2 & 3?A. Giving a definition.B. Making a comparison.C. Offering an example.D. Presenting specific data.34.What can we infer from the text?A. Allergies unknown in the past may be diagnosed now.B. Kids dont suffer from food allergies as much as adults.C. Dairy products are to blame for most food allergies. D. More exposure to microbes can reduce food allergies.35.Whats a practical suggestion for allergy sufferers?A. Never try new food.B. Make efforts to find a cure.C. Have a balanced diet.D. Read labels before eating.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Fight Laziness?Lazy people will never gain anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind. 36 . Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation(动力) once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more positive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 37 .Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 38 . Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. 39 . Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others at home may finally follow your example and perform their own tasks. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people. 40 . Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.A. To fight family laziness, set an example.B. Knowing how to fight laziness is important.C. One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.D. Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.E. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.F. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.G. Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Another persons enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved.
