The book consists of 23 chapters with thousands of stories made up of paragraphs，words and letters on different levels. There are one billion words in the book, which makes it longer than 5000 volumes the size of an ordinary book, or as long as 800 Bibles. If I read the genome out to you at the rate of one word per second for eight hours a day，it would take me a century. If I wrote out the human genome, one letter per millimeter, my text would be as long as the River Danube.This is an enormous document，a huge volume，a book of great length，and it all fits inside the extremely small nucleus(核) of a tiny cell that fits easily upon the head of a pin.The idea of the genome as a book is not, strictly speaking，even a metaphor (比喻). It is true to a great extent. A book is a piece of digital information, written in one­directional form and defined by a code that translates a small alphabet of signs into a large dictionary of meanings through the order of their groupings. So is a genome.The only complication is that all English books read from left to right while some parts of the genome read from left to right，and some from right to left, though never both at the same time.English books are written in words of different lengths using twenty­six letters, while genomes are written entirely in three­letter words, using only four letters. And instead of being written on flat pages, they are written on long chains of DNA molecules(分子). The genome is a very clever book, because in the right conditions it can both photocopy itself and read itself.1How do human genomes read according to the passage?AOnly from left to right.BOnly from right to left.CFrom both directions at the same time.DFrom one direction at a time.答案：D據(jù)第二段最后一句話可知人體基因組有時從左到右讀，有時從右到左，但不會兩者同時，故正確答案為D項。2We can learn from the passage that the human genome_.Ais as long as the River DanubeBcan be easily placed on the head of a pinCis coded with an alphabet of four lettersDis smart enough to read and take photos of itself答案：C據(jù)最后一段第一句可知正確答案應(yīng)為C項。3It can be concluded that the passage is mainly written for _.Aspecialists in the fieldBgeneral readersCnatural scientistsDreaders with academic background答案：B通讀全文可知本文應(yīng)是面向普通讀者的。4The real purpose of the author's comparison of the genome to a book is _.Ato focus on the differences between the twoBto lay emphasis on the similarities between the twoCto simplify the concept of the human genomeDto give an exact description of the human genome答案：C根據(jù)第一段可知作者將基因組比作一本書為的就是簡單明了地闡述人體基因組的概念。BIn the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. Many TV stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately owned. The government does not give them money. So where does the money come from? From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses.Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping your name before the public” And some people thought that advertising was “truth well told” Now more and more people consider it in this way. Advertising is the paid, non­personal, and usually persuasive presentation of goods, services and ideas by some certain sponsors (發(fā)起人) through various media. First, advertising is usually paid for. Various sponsors pay for the advertisements we see, read, and hear over the various media. Second, advertising is non­personal. It is not face­to­face communication. Although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in reality, it is directed at large groups of people. Third, advertising is usually persuasive. Directly or indirectly it asks people to do something. All advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can benefit them. Fourth, the sponsors of the advertisement must show their names. From the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a company, or a single person. Fifth, advertising reaches us through old and modern mass media. Included in the old media are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and films. Modern media include e­mails, matchbox covers, and boards on top of buildings.5The existence of the privately owned mass media depends on the support of _.Athe government Btheir owners' familiesCadvertisements Dthe TV stations答案：C細節(jié)理解題。第一段的內(nèi)容：in the West，advertisements are the fuel(在西方國家，廣告使大量的媒體得以工作，所以被比喻成燃料)和Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses，所以就可以知道西方大量媒體的存在是依靠廣告的。6The passage seems to say that different ideas of advertising are given due to _.Athe change of timeBthe subject of the advertisementsCpeople's age differenceDpeople's different opinions答案：A推理判斷題。從第二段可以看出，對于廣告不同的看法是由于時代的不同，從文章中的Through the years可以得出正確的答案。7Which of the following is considered modern mass media?ANewspapers. BE­mails.CMagazines. DFilms.答案：B細節(jié)理解題。由文章最后一句可知。8According to the passage, which of the following statements about advertisements is NOT true?AThe sponsors are always mentioned.BAdvertising must be honest and humorous.CThere is the description of things advertised.DAdvertising is meant for large groups of people.答案：B細節(jié)理解題。選項B與文中的advertising is usually persuasive不一致。.短文填空根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。In your life, you may have many unforgettable events like winning a prize, going aboard_1_ I was always dreaming of swimming like a fish ! At that time ，I was so jealous when I saw people swimming. _2_ Later, one summer afternoon, I followed my school buddies to a river, accompanied by my brother. I remember how eagerly I kicked off my shoes and jumped into the cool water. Truthfully , I was not sure what to do but struggle in the water. Luckily, a young swimmer nearby happened to find me and soon I was pulled out. Being out of water, I felt I was transported to the wonder world. Realizing that I was safe and well, I burst into tears._3_ I went for another try with my brother. But I feared that I would never become a good swimmer. I stepped carefully into the swimming pool but when the water came up to my stomach, I lost my balance again and fell into the water. I found myself further away from my brother than I thought. The King of Terror was approaching! Desperately, I kept my eyes wide open and tried to seize my brother by the arm, once, twice, three times.I was shouting and waving my arms exhaustedly. At last, my brother was able to reach out his hand to touch me. I got saved again._4_ But motivated by the desire to swim, I made my third attempt. I felt my legs paralyzed on the bank when I faced the big swimming pool. Watching the happy swimmers in the water, I was inspired. Why not have a last try? I took a deep breath and confidently went forward . As I was going deeper into the water, I made great efforts to control my thought, so I could keep the balance. _5_ I was able to swim! Yes, I was able to swim! All of a sudden, a feeling of satisfaction was running high.ABut for me, the most unusual event is learning how to swim.BI would never go swimming again after two unpleasant experiences.CDon't be afraid of the hardships in front of you.DAnyway, my dream never ended.EI told myself that I would be one of them one day.FTo my amazement, I made it!GI always believe “Where there is a will, there is a way”答案：15AEDBF.書面表達最近有科學家宣布他們已經(jīng)成功地克隆了第一例人類胚胎，此舉引發(fā)了人們的極大爭議與廣泛關(guān)注。你們班的同學也就此進行了激烈的討論。請你根據(jù)下表所示的信息，將討論結(jié)果以信件的形式告知你的朋友，并表達自己的觀點。話題Human cloning: To be or not to be？觀點及支持率35%：pro­cloning65%：anti­cloning理由克隆出來的人可以幫我們分擔自己的事務(wù)，如做作業(yè)等。我們可以利用克隆人的器官來治療病人?？寺∪耸遣坏赖碌模寺〕鰜淼娜艘彩侨?，很有可能會不受我們控制，因而我們不該自己制造麻煩?？寺∪藭沟萌丝跀?shù)量劇增，造成很多社會問題。注意：詞數(shù)為120左右(開頭和結(jié)尾已給出，不計入總詞數(shù))Dear Tom，A recent announcement by scientists that they have successfully cloned the first human embryo has caused much debate and has shocked many people around the world. Our class _Yours，Jack參考范文：Dear_Tom，A_recent_announcement_by_scientists_that_they_have_successfully_cloned_the_first_human_embryo_has_caused_much_debate_and_has_shocked_many_people_around_the_world._Our_class_have discussed about the topic“Human cloning：To be or not to be？”35% of the students are in favour of cloning, since the cloned humans can share our duties and burdens, such as, our homework. And we can make use of the cloned organs to help some patients.However, others hold the opposite opinion，they argue that human cloning is immoral. Cloning can even increase the population, therefore it will cause many social problems. The cloned humans are also humans and we are likely to lose control of them. So why should we get ourselves in trouble?As far as I am concerned, I'm in complete agreement with human cloning. After all, scientists have been challenging questions of morality for centuries. Why should we stop them now? But we have to make sure that we're cloning humans with the intention of benefiting humans.What's your opinion? Write to me soon.Yours，Jack
