For many environmentalists, the world seems to be getting worse. They have developed a it-list of our main fears: natural resources are running out; the population  31  (grow), leaving less and less to eat? species are becoming  32  (extinction) in vast numbers, and the planet’s air and water are becoming dirty,  33  are ever more polluted.
34  a quick look at the facts shows a different picture. First, energy and other natural resources have become more abundant not less so. Second,  35  food is now at any time in history. Third, although species are indeed becoming extinct, only about 0.7% of them are expected   36  (disappear) in the next 50 years, not 25~50%, as has so often been predicted. And finally, most forms of environmental pollution   37  appear to have been predicted, or are too short– associated  38  the early stages of industrialization.   39  bigger problem may well turn out to be an inappropriate response to it. yet opinion polls suggest that many people develop the   40  (believer)that environmental standards are declining and some factors seem to cause this disjunction.

An unforgettable experience
It was a cold winter day. I rushed down the busy road towards the bus stop. Taxis passed me one after another   36  I didn’t have enough money to get one. My wallet was in my pocket but  37  I had was a five-yuan note. Taking a bus would  38  three, so I would be left with only   39   to buy something to eat. I was very hungry as I had only eaten one meal all day. Waiting at the bus stop, I  40 eagerly for a store   41 I could buy food. Then I heard an old woman’s voice  42 
behind me, “Steamed corn(蒸玉米)!Steamed corn!One yuan each!” Her voice was breaking and  43 deep despair. Staring at the old woman, I felt pity. She was  44  ,just like a beggar. But she was much older than the other beggars in the street. Her face was  45 and her eyes were full of tears. Her large withered(干枯的) fingers kept a tight hold on her basket of steamed corns. What had happened to her? Why was a woman  46  selling corns on such a cold evening? I felt sad. I had to do something. I took the five-yuan note from my wallet and handed it to her. She had said each steamed corn cost one yuan, so I could buy  47 . But if I did that, I would have nothing 48 to pay for the ticket. I wouldn’t be able to get home. Finally, I decided to give the woman two yuan for one steamed corn,   49 my pity for her. To my surprise, she refused to accept the  50 one yuan, saying she wanted to work for her money. She was already  51 to me because I was the only person to buy steamed corns from her all day.
I was   52 moved. She was so old and weak but chose to sell snacks   53  beg. From that moment, I had  54 for her, and didn’t feel pity any more. The corn was sweet and delicious. But  55 made me happier was that I helped a respectable old woman as much as I could.

People are overweight for many reasons, the most important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods, get the wrong types of calories per meal, and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day. Food is more powerful than any weight loss pill, because the food that you eat can either make you thin or fat. This is true because your body is like an engine, and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals(間隔)each day.
Low-calorie Diets Do Not Work 
The reason people cannot lose weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism(新陳代謝)will detect any major drop in calories and it will then adjust(調(diào)整)itself by burning fewer calories each day. That is the reason why you can eat 1,000 calories per day and not lose any weight, while your friends can eat 2,500 calories per day and not gain any weight.
Low-fat Diets Do Not Work
Many people in today’s society are buying mostly low- fat or non-fat food at the grocery store. Everybody knows how much fat is inside the food they buy. However, people are getting fatter than ever before by doing this. They are not losing weight by changing to this low-fat lifestyle.
Losing weight has nothing to do with these things. One of the most important things you can do to control your weight is to eat the proper foods, such as fruit and vegetables, eat them at the right time, and exercise every day. If people make this a habit, they will lose weight.
68. What is the main reason why people are overweight according to the author?
A. They eat the wrong foods at the wrong time.
B. They eat food with lots of calories.
C. They don’t take any weight loss pills.
D. They burn many calories every day.
69. The article is written in order to _______.
A. tell readers not to buy low-fat or non-fat food
B. tell readers how to lose weight
C. tell readers about an important scientific discovery
D. call on people to lose weight and stay healthy
70. To realize the aim of your weight loss plan, you should ________.
a. do exercise every day      
b. eat meals at the right time
c. eat fruits and vegetables   
d. eat low-fat or sweet food
e. eat the proper foods at each meal
A. a, b, c, d       B. a, b, d, e     C. a, c, d, e       D. a, b, c, e

第三部分:閱讀理解(共 20小題;每小題 2分,滿分 40分)
閱讀下列短文,然后從各題所給的四個選項(A、B、C 和 D)中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
All over my garden I’ve planted nothing but roses, sweet and — if looked at far away — bright with color like sunset clouds, I’d be very happy if anyone of my visiting friends should desire to pick and take some for their homes. I trust that any friend of mine carrying the rose would disappear into the distance feeling that his emotions had been rekindled (重燃).
A close friend came for a visit the other day. I know her to be a lover of flowers and plants. And for that reason I told her at her departure that she should pick a bunch of roses to grace her bedroom. I promised that the smell of the roses would be wafted far, far away.
That girl friend of mine, tiptoeing into the garden in high spirits, smelt here and there, but in the end she didn’t pick a single rose. I said there were so many of them that she would pick as many as she’d like to; I told her that I was not a flower farmer and didn’t make a living out of them. Saying so I raised the scissors for the sacrifice of the flowers, but she stopped me, crying no, no, no!
To cut such beautiful roses would hurt one, she said. With her hands seizing at my sleeves, she told me that by no means should they be cut. Roses are the smiling face of the earth, and who could be so iron-hearted as to destroy a smile so charming?
My mind was thoroughly shocked: the ugly earth, the rough earth, the plain earth—it is for the reason of that smile that it wins the care and pity of people.
56. The underlined word “wafted” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “__________”.
A. moved             B. lost                  C. destroyed                 D. felt
The writer plants nothing but roses in her garden probably because ____.
A.    she can make money out of them          B. her friends like them
C.    she enjoys the roses very much 
D.the roses can rekindle her friends’ emotions
58. Why did the writer’s close friend refuse to pick a single rose?
A. Because the roses were not beautiful.
B. Because she did not like this kind of roses.
C. Because the writer did not want to give her any.
D. Because she loved the roses very much.
59. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A lovely rose garden.                             B. The smiling face of the earth.
C. The pity of people to the roses.          D. A lover of flowers.

第三部分閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)
Bad moods can actually be good for you-an Australian study finds that being sad makes people less possible to be taken in, improves their ability to judge others and also improves memory.
The study, carried out by psychology professor Joseph Forgas at the University of New South Wales, showed that people in a negative mood were more critical of, and paid more attention to their surroundings than happier people, who were more likely to believe anything they were told. "Although positive mood seems to promote creativity, flexibility, cooperation, negative moods lead to more attentive, careful thinking and encourage people to pay greater attention to the outside world," Forgas wrote. "Our research suggests that sadness promotes information processing strategies best suited to dealing with more demanding situations."
For the study, Forgas and his team conducted several experiments that started with inducing (引起,導(dǎo)致)happy or sad moods in participants through watching films and recalling positive or negative events. In one of the experiments, happy and sad participants were asked to judge the truth of urban myths and rumors and found that people in a negative mood were less likely to believe these statements. People in a bad mood were also less likely to make quick decisions based on racial or religious prejudices(偏見), and they were less likely to make mistakes when asked to recall an event that they witnessed.
The study also found that sad people were better at stating their case through written arguments. Forgas said this showed that a negative mood may actually promote a clearer and more successful communication style."
"Positive mood is not universally desirable: people in negative mood are less prone to judgmental errors, and are better at producing high-quality, effective persuasive arguments" Forgas wrote.
56.According to the text, people in a bad mood are more likely to______________.
A. judge other people more exactly
B. believe anything they are told
C. make quick decisions based on prejudices
D make mistakes when asked to describe an event
57. We can learn from the text that Joseph Forgas______________
A. carried out the experiments alone
B. is a psychology professor in Britain
C. likes to deal with demanding situations in life
D believes bad moods might benefit people’s health
58. In what way did Joseph Forgas conclude the study?
A. By comparison   B. By explanation    C. By analysis   D By inference
59. The text is mainly about ______________
A. how to change bad moods into good moods
B. the differences between good and bad moods.
C. benefits of bad moods
D how to beat bad moods.

Summer is a busy time for travel. For years, people have wondered whether they are safe from viruses when they travel in small, enclosed areas. They worry about close contact with others who may be sick.
The current spread of a swine flu(豬流感) virus has added to these concerns. Recently, the World Health Organization raised its warning about the new H1N1 virus to its highest level. W.H.O. Director-General Margaret Chan declared the sickness a pandemic–a disease that has spread to many nations. Given this information, many people want to know how safe it is to travel?
The answers people are getting may seem conflicting. For example, a W.H.O. statement urged nations not to close their borders or limit trade and travel. Director-General Chan said cases are generally not that serious for most people. Still, W.H.O. officials continue to report new cases across the world.
In the past, the W.H.O. and experts noted guidance for disease spread on airplanes. The experts said you could get infected only if you sit within two rows of someone who is sick. That would be a distance of up to three meters from the sick person. And this was true only if you sat there for more than eight hours.
But a travel-health expert says this guidance may not be helpful for swine flu. He suggests steps that could help prevent getting swine flu on an airplane. His advice includes keeping the airflow over your seat on the “l(fā)ow” position. The doctor says you should point the equipment so the flow of air is just in front of your face.
Doctors say anyone with pain, swelling(腫脹) or red skin on a leg during or after a long trip may have a blood clot(凝塊). Anyone with such signs should see a doctor as soon as possible. The condition many times can be treated with drugs that thin the blood and stop the clot from moving through the body.
68.The underlined word “conflicting” is closest in meaning to ________.
A. in disagreement        B. not true                           C. the same                          D. unbelievable
69.According to Director-General Chan, the swine flu is ________.
A. a disease spread on airplanes                                B. a very dangerous disease
C. a disease requiring limit travel                              D. a widely spread disease
70.Which of the following is the travel-health expert’s opinion on traveling in an airplane?
A. It’s safe to sit within two rows of a sick person.
B. It’s helpful to keep air flowing right before your face.
C. It’s important for a passenger to stay in a plane within 8 hours.
D. It’s certain that a passenger will have a blood clot after a long flight.
71.What would be the best title for the text?
A. Stop Traveling in Case of Swine Flu                  B. Experts’ Arguments Over Swine Flu
C. Prevention of Swine Flu on the Trip                   D. No News Is the Best News

Far from the land of Antarctica, a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.
For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer.
Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fish’s blood and measured its freezing point.
The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88℃ and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05℃. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.
The scientists’ next research job was clear: Find out what in the fish’s blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein(蛋白質(zhì)) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.
Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules(分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecules. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein, or AFGP.
49. What is the text mainly about?
A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic.          B. A special fish living in freezing waters.
C. The ice shelf around Antarctic.                  D. Protection of the Antarctic cod.
50. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?
A. The seawater has a temperature of -1.88℃.    
B. It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture.
C. A special protein keeps it from freezing.        
D. Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05℃.
51. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. A type of ice-salt mixture.                      B. A newly found protein.
C. Fish blood.                                           D. Sugar molecule.
52. What does “glycol” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean?
A. sugar                      B. ice                   C. blood                      D. molecule

Nothing is more pleasing and romantic as flowers in the bedroom. Now, a new study says that the sweet smells of flowers in the bedroom can also lead to sweet dreams.
Researchers in Germany have carried out the study and have found that sleeping with flowers in the bedroom may encourage sweet dreams, a major finding they claim could help nightmare sufferers to and extent.
They came to the conclusion after an analysis of the sleep patterns of 15 female volunteers for a period of nearly 30 nights, a leading British newspaper reported on Monday.
The researchers pumped scents of rotten eggs, roses or no scent under their noses for nearly ten seconds while the women were in the Rapid Eye Movement period of sleep when a dream occurs.
The subjects were then woken up and asked to record their dreams. The smells had an effect on the emotions of the dreams but did not become part of the dream in that the women exposed to roses did not dream about roses the study found.
There was a correlation between the negative smells and negative emotional scores the sleepers reported from their dream.
According to the researchers, it’ll be interesting to study nightmare sufferers and if positive smells can actually influence the mood of their dreams as a form of treatment in the future.
