Sheep are people who change home for economic and emotional peace. Hens are home and environment care­seekers. Cows are career or work shifters, while pigs are people caught up in grand parental support. It is far from the common believed idea of Coronation Streets, where close­knit generations of the same family live within a few streets of each other throughout their lives. Less than 20 percent of people now live in the town where they were born. Instead, young adults move away to find work, get married or seek adventure.Many use the Internet to work from a home which need not be within easy traveling distance of their workplace.Also joining the moving crowd are older people who either move to be near grandchildren or retire to new homes.One in ten of those who do make away makes a complete break, and now lives 500 miles or more from where they grew up.Women are likely to leave as men, a sign of independence that would not have excited in the 1950s and 1960s.People in the North East, North­West, Yorkshire and Scotland are the most likely to live in the community where they were born, the study found.1According to the research in the passage, British people tend to _.Abecome more independent whenever they graduate or grow upBlive or work far away from where they were born or grew upClive near their own homesDbecome more close to each other答案：B由第二段可知，英國人趨向于在離出生地很遠(yuǎn)的地方工作或生活。2Which of the following is NOT a reason for the trend mentioned in the text?AThe wide use of Internet.BImproved communications.CPeople becoming richer.DMore job opportunities.答案：D由第三段可知，導(dǎo)致這一趨勢的原因有因特網(wǎng)的廣泛應(yīng)用、交流的促進(jìn)和人民財富的增加，故選D項。3Who are NOT likely to move away from home?AOlder people. BWomen.CPeople in Scotland. DYoung people.答案：C由末段可知，蘇格蘭人是最不可能遷至遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)地方的。4Which of the following can be regarded as a Cow?AA person who changes job often.BA person who leaves home because of family troubles.CA person who retires to a new home.DA person who breaks away from his home.答案：A由第五段中的“Cows are career or work shifters”可知，經(jīng)常換工作的人可歸為此類。BSolar energy for your home is coming. It can help you as a single home owner. It can help the whole country as well. Whether or not solar energy can save your money depends on many things. Where you live is one factor and the type of home you have is another. Things like insulation (絕緣材料), present energy costs, and the type of system you buy are added factors.Using solar energy can help save our precious fuel. As you know, our supplies of oil and gas are very limited. There is just not enough on hand to meet all our future energy needs. Sooner or later Mother Nature will say that's all. The only way we can delay hearing those words is by starting to save energy now and by using other sources, like the sun.We won't have to worry about the sun's running out of energy for another several billion years or so. Besides, the sun doesn't offer as many problems as other energy sources. For example, fossil fuel (礦物燃料) adds to already high pollution levels. With solar energy, we will still need sources of energy, but we won't need as much. That means we can cut down on our pollution problems.With all these good points, why don't we use more solar power? There are many reasons for this. The biggest reason in money. Until now, it was just not practical for a home owner to put in a solar unit. There were cheaper sources of energy.All that is changing now. Solar costs are starting to equal the costs of oil and electricity. Experts say that gas, oil and electricity prices will continue to rise. The demand for electricity is increasing rapidly. But new power plants will use more gas, oil or coal. Already in some places the supply of electricity is being rationed (限量供應(yīng)). Solar energy is now in its infancy (初期). It could soon grow to become a major part of our nation's energy supply.5What's this passage mainly about?ASomething about solar energy and pollution.BSolar energy.CEnergy and pollution.DEnergy and money.答案：B主旨大意題。本文主要講的是環(huán)保能源太陽能，其余選項僅為本文的部分內(nèi)容。6Solar energy can help us _.Aescape punishment from natureBbecome home ownersCget rid of present energyDsave our precious fuel答案：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文章第二段第一句可知。7The sun is an endless source of energy, and it will not run out of energy for _.Aseveral million yearsBseveral hundred yearsCseveral billion yearsDseveral thousand years答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第三段第一句可知。8Which of the following statements is TRUE?AEnergy from coal would not pollute our living environment.BEnergy from natural gas would not pollute our living environment.CEnergy from the sun would not pollute our living environment.DEnergy from oil would not pollute our living environment.答案：C細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。從第三段可判斷出只有太陽能無污染。9Solar energy is now in its infancy, _.Abut in the future it will become an important part of our nation's energy supplyBso we will build more power plantsCand the supply of electricity will be rationed throughout the countryDso we don't need it答案：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從本文最后兩句可知現(xiàn)在太陽能開發(fā)處于初期，但不久將會成為我國能源的重要組成部分。.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。Sleep is something we all do. But some people need to sleep more than others. Babies sleep most of the time. Children in school sleep about ten to twelve hours a night. Most grown­ups sleep only seven or eight hours. _1_All parts of our bodies have to rest after they work. Our arms need a rest after we lift heavy things. When we run fast, our legs work hard. They get tired. We have to rest them. Our brains work hard，too._2_ We can sit quite still and rest our arms and legs. But our brains aren't resting. They go right on thinking as long as we are awake. Our brains slow down a bit when we sleep and dream. _3_ Instead of thinking wide­awake thought, our brains make up dreams. Some dreams are very pleasing. Some are not. Most of the time we forget them when we wake up. Scientists have tired to find out what would happen if people were not allowed to sleep. They asked some people not to go to bed. The people stayed up all night and all the next day. They stayed up the next night, too and the day after. They played games. But they made mistakes. They forgot things._4_ The people grew rude and mean. They became angry with their friends. Finally they were too tired to stand up. The moment they sat down, they fell asleep. Scientists found that if people are not allowed to sleep, they act in an unusual way._5_ But we do know that we need it to stay well. So tonight have a good sleep. Lie down under the covers. Shut your eyes. Let your thought travel about. Soon you'll stop thinking. You'll be asleep.ABut even as we sleep our brains are doing some work.BIt was hard for their tired brains to work.CWhen we are awake, they help us pay attention to the world around us.DNo one knows quite surely why sleep is so good for us.EGood sleep helps to improve one's memory.FBut babies, children and grown­upsall of us need to have our sleep.GOur brains will not stop to have a rest，even one minute.答案：15FCABD.書面表達(dá)拯救大兵瑞恩是著名導(dǎo)演史蒂文·斯皮爾伯格執(zhí)導(dǎo)的影片。請根據(jù)下列所提示的內(nèi)容，寫一篇短文，介紹這部影片，并發(fā)表你對戰(zhàn)爭與和平的看法。1該片制作于1999年，故事以第二次世界大戰(zhàn)為背景，描述了戰(zhàn)爭的殘酷，表現(xiàn)了愛與和平最終戰(zhàn)勝戰(zhàn)爭的思想。2你的觀點(diǎn)。注意：詞數(shù)100左右。_參考范文：Saving Private Ryan was made in 1999 by Steven Spielberg, one of the most famous directors in the world. The film, set in the Second World War, is about the cruelty of war and shows that love and peace will win over war in the end.War, causing much damage to human beings, is refused by everyone while peace is longed for. All the people who love peace throughout the world should unite to fight for peace. Now there are many wars in the world. We condemn those who break peace. At the same time we should value the peace that we own. Only in this way can we live in peace.
