【題目】You may not be very familiar with “ecotourism”. 1But in an age of growing environmental awareness, it is not too difficult for us to imagine and understand this new form of holiday.

Ecotourism which is considered as a kind of responsible tourism, is typically defined as travel to places where special and unusual plants, animals and cultural heritages(遺產(chǎn))are the main attractions, 2Therefore, programs concerning the protection of some natural and cultural sots also form a part of ecotourism.

Ecotourism is developing at a great speed, according to a recent report by the World Tourism Organization. Ecotourism in recent years has enjoyed an annual growth of about 5% world wide. 3They include bird watching, hiking, diving, photography and taking part in various kinds of local cultural events.

4However, it looks like some smaller towns and country areas may well become the new destinations for people to visit tomorrow because they are rich in ecological, cultural and historical resources.

Ecotourism has been gaining increasing recognition and popularity mainly for the relaxing, natural and vivid experience it offers to tourists. People are attracted to nature and long to be close to it. However, conflict between nature and human being is unavoidable.5

A. The definition of ecotourism is beyond words

B. It takes ecology and culture into consideration

C. It is a new term in today’s tourism industry

D. More than 80 activities have been listed for ecotourism

E. People can have great fun enjoying nature through ecotourism

F. Big cities are still the major places that attract tourists in our society today

G. How to protect natural resources while taking advantage is of great importance

【答案】

1C

2B

3D

4F

5G

【解析】你可能對(duì)生態(tài)旅游不熟悉,這是旅游界的一個(gè)新名詞。但是隨著人們對(duì)環(huán)保的重視,對(duì)于我們理解和想象這種度假方式就不難了。

1根據(jù)空格前一句:你可能對(duì)生態(tài)旅游不熟悉,得知由于是一個(gè)新興名詞,大家對(duì)它會(huì)比較陌生。因此我們可以通過(guò)選項(xiàng)中名詞new term跟空前的not familiar一致性來(lái)確定這兩個(gè)句子之間有一種關(guān)聯(lián)性,因此正確的答案是C. It is a new term in today’s tourism industry。

2本段解釋了生態(tài)旅游的含義,提到了文化遺產(chǎn)、稀有動(dòng)植物,因此得知生態(tài)旅游的優(yōu)點(diǎn)是考慮到了生態(tài)和文化,因此正確的答案是B. It takes ecology and culture into consideration。

3根據(jù)空格后他們包括眾多當(dāng)?shù)匚幕录5弥耙痪鋺?yīng)該總的闡述生態(tài)旅游包括多少種活動(dòng).因此正確的答案是D. More than 80 activities have been listed for ecotourism。

4根據(jù)下一句的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系However, 得知前后在對(duì)比,后面說(shuō)到越來(lái)越多的人選擇自然風(fēng)光,推斷出前面說(shuō)的是當(dāng)今大都市仍然是旅游聚集地,因此選擇F. Big cities are still the major places that attract tourists in our society today。

5根據(jù)前一句:然而自然和人類的沖突不可避免,得知應(yīng)該總結(jié)如何利用自然資源同時(shí)還能保護(hù)自然至關(guān)重要。因此正確的答案是G. How to protect natural resources while taking advantage is of great importance。

【題目】從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。
Danger-junkie orangutans(猩猩) in Borneo climb dead trees and shake then until they begin to fall. They scream with excitement as they cling to the falling tree. Just before the tree hits the ground the orangutans leap to another tree or vine, narrowly escaping death. While no one cab ask orangutans if they enjoy it as a person playing an extreme sport, one animal behaviorist sees this monkey fun as a bit of harmless thrill-seeking.
A growing number of scientists agree that animals are conscious and capable of experiencing basic emotions(情感), such as happiness, sadness, boredom or depression. A few scientists even see the possibility for higher animal emotions like love, jealousy and spite.
Five years ago, behaviorist and animal-rights activist Dr. Jonathan Balcombe stood on a Virginia hotel balcony watching two crows intimately groom (清潔) each other in the comfort of an abandoned billboard. He felt that the birds liked what they were doing, even if engaged in a natural, beneficial act, such as picking parasites (寄生蟲(chóng)) off the other's feathers. That moment changed the way he would view animals forever and led to a book, “Pleasurable Kingdom: Animals and the Nature of Feeling Good”, which is filled with hundreds of examples of animals living it up thanks to developed senses of touch, taste, sight, sound and smell.
Balcombe recounts a favorite example of Kenyan hippos (河馬) having high-end spa treatment in a fresh water spring. They splay their toes, open their mouths wide and wait for a school of cleaner fish to remove parasites and slough off dead skin, he recalls. Balcombe knows that the hippos and the fish both benefit from this arrangement. “My interpretation is that it is also enjoyable for them ,” he says.
(1)Danger-junkie orangutans shook the tree to ________.
A.get some fruits
B.enjoy themselves
C.train their escaping skills
D.frighten other animals
(2)The purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.
A.describe an unusual scene among animals
B.give an example that animals can experience pleasure
C.make a comparison between monkeys with humans
D.show that animals can avoid danger
(3)The passage leads us to the belief that _____.
A.animals can experience emotions
B.animals have a way to adapt to their environment
C.animals can copy what humans do
D.animals are only eat-or-be-eaten beasts
(4)We can conclude from the passage that ________.
A.only a few animals have emotions
B.Balcombe's theory is not supported by other scientists
C.Balcombe has watched a lot of animals showing emotions
D.Balcombe can understand animal language

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves. However, more often than not, once you arrive “there” you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your “there” vision to yet another point in the future. By always chasing (追尋) after another “there”, you are never really appreciating what you already have right “here”. It is important for human beings to keep sober-minded(頭腦清醒的) about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand. On one hand, your life is developed by your dreams and aspirations (抱負(fù)). On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now.
To be grateful means you are thankful for what you have right now. Gratitude (感激) fills your heart with the joyful feeling and allows you to fully appreciate everything that arises on your path. As you try hard to keep your focus on the present moment, you can experience the full wonder of “here”.
There are many ways to develop gratitude. Here are just a few suggestions you may wish to try:
◆ Imagine what your life would be like if you lost all that you had. This will most surely remind you of how much you do appreciate it.
◆ Make a list each day of all that you are grateful for, so that you can stay conscious (有意識(shí)的) daily of your blessings. Do this especially when you are feeling as though you have nothing to feel grateful for. Or spend a few minutes before you go to sleep giving thanks for all that you have.
◆ Spend time offering assistance (幫助) to those who are less fortunate than you, so that you may gain a new perspective (觀點(diǎn)).
What really matters is that you create a space in your consciousness for appreciation for all that you have right now, so that you may live more happily in your present moment.
(1)According to the first paragraph we know ___________.
A.many people feel satisfied with what they have right now
B.aspirations can pull a person farther from his present life
C.none can be sober-minded about his dreams and aspirations
D.we should be busy with chasing one after another “there”
(2)Gratitude can NOT ____________.
A.fill your heart with happy feelings
B.allow you to fully appreciate your “here”
C.make people experience the wonder of “here”
D.drive people to give up their future
(3)If we want to develop gratitude, we should better NOT____________.
A.check out what we lose everyday
B.give thanks for all that we have before sleeping
C.help others who are less fortunate than us
D.make a list each day of all that we should thank for

【題目】閱讀理解。
Obama, Lady Gaga and Steve Jobs—what do they have in common? They are, of course, all Americans. And according to a survey by social networking site baidu. com, they all best illustrate(舉例說(shuō)明) the word “cool”.
But just what does it mean to say someone is “cool”? Most would answer that it is something to do with being independent-minded and not following the crowd.
Yale University art professor Robert Farris Thompson says that the term “cool” goes back to 15th century West African philosophy. “Cool” relates to ideas of grace under pressure.
“In Africa, ” he writes, “coolness is a positive quality which combines calmness, silence, and life.”
The modern idea of “cool” developed largely in the US in the period after World War II. “Post-war ‘cool' was in part an expression of war-weariness (厭戰(zhàn)情緒), ... it went against the strict social rules of the time,” write sociologists Dick Pountain and David Robins in Cool Rules: Anatomy of an Attitude.
But it was the American actor James Dean who became the symbol for “cool” in the hugely successful 1955 movie Rebel without a Cause. Dean plays a tough guy who disobeys his parents and the authorities. He always gets the girl, smokes cigarettes, wears a leather jacket and beats up bullies. In the movie, Dean showed what “cool” would mean to American young people for the next 60 years.
Today the focus of “cool” has changed to athletics (體育運(yùn)動(dòng)) stars. Often in movies about schools, students gain popularity on the athletics field more than in the classroom. This can be seen quite clearly in movies like Varsity Blues and John Tucker Must Die.
But many teenagers also think being smart is cool. Chess and other thinking games have been becoming more popular in schools.
“Call it the Harry Potterization of America—a time when being smart is the new cool,” writes journalist Joe Sunnen.
(1)If you were considered “cool” in Africa in the 15th century, you ________.
A.thought and acted differently from the majority
B.had a calm and quiet attitude towards life
C.didn't observe rules and authorities
D.had all kinds of “bad” manners
(2)The heroes in Varsity Blues and John Tucker Must Die are likely to be those who ________.
A.do very well in their studies
B.are very skilled at sports
C.are good at chess and other thinking games
D.have supernatural powers like Harry Potter
(3)Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?
A.It is generally considered “cool” to be independent-minded and not to follow the crowd.
B.“Cool” was used as early as the 15th century.
C.Disobeying one's parents and the authorities is considered “cool” among American young people nowadays.
D.Getting the first place in an exam can also be considered “cool”.
(4)What does the article mainly talk about?
A.The origin of the word “cool”.
B.The kinds of people who are “cool”.
C.The changing meaning of the word “cool”.
D.How to be a “ cool” person.
