| 第5、6、7、8、9、10、11、12题： Nice Name But She's So Deadly 1 More than a million people in the United States were told to leave their homes over the weekend as Hurricane （飓风） Dennis headed to the Gulf coast， after killing at least 15 people in the Caribbean Sea. 2 If you read the news often enough=， you may notice that all hurricanes are given names. Why is that？ Remember， there can be more than one hurricane operating at one time. Without naming them， we could get confused about which storm we're talking about. 3 For hundreds of years， hurricanes in the Caribbean were named after the particular religious day on which they occurred. One Australian meteorologist （气象学家） began giving women's names to tropical storms at the end of the 19th century. In 1953， the US National Weather Service， which is responsible for tracking hurricanes and issuing warnings， began using female names for storms. By i979， both women and men's names were being used. One name for each letter of the alphabet （字母表） is selected， except for Q， U and Z. 4 So who decides which names are used' each year？ The World Meteorological Organization uses six lists in rotation， so each list is reused every six years. 5 Here's a list of the 2005 Atlantic hurricanes， according to the US National Hurricane Centre： Arlene， Bret， Cindy， Dennis， Emily， Franklin， Gert， Harvey， Irene， Jose， Katrina， Lee， Maria， Nate， Ophelia， Philippe， Rita， Stan， Tammy， Vince， Wilma. 23 Paragraph 1 . 24 Paragraph 2 . 25 Paragraph 3 . 26 Paragraph 4 . A Reason for naming hurricanes B Warning of an approaching hurricane C Deadly women D History of naming hurricanes E Organization responsible for naming hurricanes F Ways to track hurricanes 27 Over a million people were warned not（）。 28 The responsibility of the US National Weather Service is（）。 29 Hurricanes are given names（）。 30 At the end o[ the 19th century， women's names started（）。 A to track hurricanes and issue warnings B to avoid confusion C to stay at home D to be given to tropical storms E to make predictions F to kill at least 15 people |

| 第13题：下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。 Entertaining Guests in Today's Britain Britons are increasingly entertaining guests at home with dinner, film and karaoke nights, inspired by television shows on cookery and home entertainment, according to a survey. More than half (53 percent) of the respondents to a poll of 1,000 Britons across the country said they now prefer to spend quality time with family and friends by inviting them over to their homes rather than meeting in bars and restaurants, the survey by mobile phone operator T-Mobile showed. Popular television shows such as "Come Dine With Me", where amateur chefs attempt to show each other with their cooking skills, "Master Chef" where ordinary people compete to cook to Michelin standards and a number of celebrity cookery shows have inspired Britons to entertain at home. The poll showed that nearly a third of respondents had splashed out cash for home entertainment improvements such as sofas, dining tables, games consoles and bigger televisions to impress the guests. "Over the last couple of years, my clients have increasingly asked for home parties rather than ones at independent venues," party planning expert Liz Brewer said in a statement accompanying the poll's results. "This is not only due to the recession but because many have become increasingly house-proud and keen to show off their cooking skills, in addition to their latest home entertainment purchases. " Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was the top choice for dream host of respondents, while Prime Minister Gordon Brown was one of the least favored, alongside his rival Conservative leader David Cameron. 31. What does the word "entertain" mean? A. host B. enjoy C. enroll D. recruit 32. What does the phrase "quality time" mean? A. precious time B. much time C. good time D. limited time 33. Which is the following is not true? A. Many respondents involved in the poll prefer inviting guests to meeting in bars and restaurants. B. half of the respondents in a poll said they now like to spend quality time with family and friends C. "Come Dine with Me" involved cooking skills. D. "Master Chef" inspired Britons to welcome gusts at home. 34. What does the" splash out" most probably mean? A. crush B. waste money C. ash D. blush 35. Over the last couple of years, why do clients have increasingly asked for home parties rather than ones at independent venues? A. recession and their willingness to show their cooking skills B. it is more healthy to eat at home C. it is cleaner to eat at home D. it can create harmonious atmosphere |

| 第14、15、16、17、18题： 第一篇 Storms Sink Ships Rescuers have found the bodies of over 130 people killed in two ferry disasters in Bangladesh．The accidents happened during a storm that hit the country on April 21．Hundreds more are missing or feared dead． The two ferries sank in different rivers near the capital city of Dhaka as strong winds and rain hit the South Asian country. The government has since banned a11 ferries and other boats from travelling at night during the April-May stormy season. One of the ferries, MV Mitali，was carrying far more people than it was supposed to．About 400 passengers fitted into a space made for just 300，police said The second ferry carried about 100 passengers． “The number of deaths is certain to rise,”said an official in charge of the rescue work.“No one really knows how many people were on board the ferry or how many of them survived．” Ferries in Bangladesh don’t always keep passenger lists，making it difficult to determine the exact number of people on board. Besides the ferry accidents，at least 40 people were killed and 400 injured by lightning strikes, falling houses and trees and the sinking of small boats． Storms are common this time of year in Bangladesh, as are boating accidents．Ferry disasters take away hundreds of lives every year in a nation of 130 million people． Officials blame these river accidents on a lack of safety measures, too many passengers in boats and not enough checks on weather conditions. Ferries are a common means of transport in Bangladesh．It is a country covered by about 230 rivers．Some 20,000 ferries use the nation’s waterways(水路)every year．And many of them are dangerously overcrowded(过度拥挤)． Since1977, more than 3,000 people have died in some 260 boating accidents． 31 How many people have been found dead in the two ferry disasters? A More than 130. B Over 3,000． C About400． D At least 40. 32 The two ferry disasters occurred A at noon． B in the morning. C at night． D in the afternoon． 33 How many passengers was MV Mitali designed to carry? A 440． B 100. C 400. D 300． 34 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a cause of the boating accidents? A Strong winds． B Bad weather conditions． C Blockage of waterways． D Lack of safety measures. 35 Which of the following statements is NOT true of the two ferry disasters? A They traveled during the April-May stormy season. B They sank on April 21. C The exact number of deaths could be easily determined． D They sank somewhere near Dhaka． |

| 第21、22、23、24、25、26、27题： If you're worried about the possibility of a coming bird flu epidemic,you can take comfort in the fact that humanity has survived a similar influenza epidemic in the past.Starting its rounds at the end of World War I,the 1918 flu killed an estimated 50 million people. Popularly known as the Spanish Flu,this type of influenza was far worse than your common cold.Normally,influenza only kills those who are more vulnerable to disease,such as newborns,the old or the sick.However,the Spanish Flu was prone to killing the young and health.Often it would disable its victims in hours； within a day,they would be dead,typically from extreme cases of pneumonia（肺炎）. The Spanish Flu was quite nasty-fast-spreading and deadl.It managed to spread across the globe,devastating the world.Then suddenly,after two years ravaging（蹂躏）the Earth,it disappeared as quickly as it had arisen. Despite its nickname,the Spanish Flu did not originate in Spain.Its true origins are unknown.Some believe it started in US forts and then spread to Europe as America joined the war； others think that it populated the trenches of the English and the French and eventually broke out in 1918.Regardless of where it started,eventually a fifth of the world population suffered the disease,with a global mortality rate（死亡率）estimated at 2.5% of the population. Modernity was partly to blame for the quick spread of the disease.It passed throughout the world on trade routes and shipping lines.It hit Northern America,Europe,Asia,Africa and the South Pacific.The war did not help at all-the movement of supplies and troops aided the spread of the Spanish Flu,as well as the trench warfare.Imagine the speed at which a virus can spread in a crowded ditch.The fast emergence of the virus in the trenches caused some soldiers to believe that the Spanish Flu was a new form of biological warfare. Luckily,the Spanish Flu simply vanished by 1920.It is believed the flu simply ran out of fuel to spread. 1.The Spanish Flu started during World War I. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 2.The Spanish Flu posed a greater threat to the old and the sick. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 3.As the Spanish Flu was spreading,people in Australia were worried. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 4.The Spanish Flu disappeared two years after it broke out. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 5.The Spanish Flu was named after the place where it started. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 6.About half of the people in the world suffered from the Spanish Flu. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 7.Biological warfare originated in the 20th century. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioneded |
