The size of the area is sufficient to provide food for him, his (22) and their offspring. Migrating birds, for example, divide up the best territory in the order of “first come,

13、first (23) “ The late arrivals may acquire (24) territories, but less food is (25) , or they are too close to the (26) of the enemies of the species.When there is conflict over territory, animals will commonly use force, or a (27) of force, to decide which will stay and which will go. It is interest

14、ing to note, however, that animals seem to use only the (28) amount of force necessary to drive away the intruder. There is usually no killing. In the (29) of those animals which are capable of doing each other harm, there is a (30) for the losing animal to show the (31) animal that he wishes to sub

19、0.00)七、Part A(总题数：0，分数：0.00)八、Passage 1(总题数：1，分数：5.00)There is one kind of pain for which nobody has yet found a cure-the pain that comes from the ending of a relationship. The relationship could be a marriage or a deep friendship. Such a relationship may come to a sudden end; or it may simply fade

20、away slowly as people and circumstances change. You may be the one to “break it off, with a short note or a brief phone call. Or you may be on the receiving end. However it ended and whoever decided to end it, the pain is equally hard to bear and it requires the same time for grief. Although there i

21、s no cure for grief, we can not help looking for one, to ease the pain and to make us forget our tears. We keep ourselves busy with work, or we try to plunge ourselves into our hobbies. Perhaps we start to drink more than we should to “drown our sorrows“, or we follow the conventional advice and joi

22、n a club or society. But these things cannot cure it. Moreover, we are always in a hurry to get rid of our grief. We feel that we should try to convince ourselves, as we bite on the pillow, that we are much too old to be crying. Some people bury their grief deep inside themselves. Others seek relief

23、 by pouring their hearts out to their friends, or to anyone else who can offer a sympathetic shoulder to cry on. It is not easy to explain why we adopt these attitudes to emotional pain. Part of the answer must lie in the nature of grief itself. The important thing to admit about grief, then, is tha

24、t it will take its time. By trying to convince ourselves that it ought to be over sooner, we create an additional tension which can only make things worse.How much time is needed will vary from person to person, but psychiatrists have a rule of thumb: grief will last as long as the original relation

25、ship lasted. The sad thing is that, when the breakdown occurs, we can only stumble forward over the stones beneath our feet. It is dark ahead, and we will fall painfully many times before we begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel.（分数：5.00）(1).The passage is mainly about（分数：1.00）A.how to era

26、se the emotional painB.what is the emotional pain likeC.what cause the emotional painD.why to erase the emotional pain(2).Which of the following is not the cure for grief mentioned in the text?（分数：1.00）A.To drink a tot.B.To keep busy with work.C.To join a club or society.D.To play computer games.(3)

27、Which of the following statements is not true?（分数：1.00）A.People have to endure troubles and difficulties when they manage to relieve pain.B.If a person manages to end a relationship, it will be easier to cure the grief.C.People usually adopt different attitudes to emotional pain.D.The sooner we wan

28、t to get rid of our grief, the worse the things will be.(4).Some people prefer to tell their grief to their friends because _.（分数：1.00）A.they want to relieve their grief and get sympathyB.they want to make complaintsC.they want to reestablish a good relationshipD.they want to make new friends(5).Psy

29、chiatrists believe all the following except that _.（分数：1.00）A.different people need different time to cure their griefB.grief will stop naturally as time passes byC.grief will not stop even if we establish a new relationshipD.grief is really difficult to cure九、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)People appear t

30、o be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy one plate, one knife, one sp

31、oon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are capable of noting that they have placed five knives, five spoons, and five forks on the table and, a bit later, that this amounts to fifteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction. It seems almost rea

32、sonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a desert island at birth and returned seven years later, he or she could enter a second-grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjustment.Of course, the truth is not so simple. In this century, the work of cognitive psy

33、chologists has illuminated the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they slowly grasped-or, as the case might be, bumped into-concepts that adults take for granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as wat

34、er pours from a short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have since demonstrated that young children, when asked to count the pencils in a pile, readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the rudiments of

35、 mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort.They have also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers-the idea of a oneness, a twoness, a threeness that applies to any class of objects and is prerequisite for doing anything more mathematcally demanding than setting a table-is itsel

36、f far from innate.（分数：5.00）(1).What does the passage mainly discuss?（分数：1.00）A.Trends in teaching mathematics to children.B.The use of mathematics in child psychology.C.The development of mathematical ability in children.D.The fundamental concepts of mathematics that children must learn.(2).Which of

37、 the following can paraphrase “seclude“ in the last sentence of the first paragraph?（分数：1.00）A.arrangeB.separateC.departD.schedule(3).It can be inferred from the passage that children normally learn simple counting _.（分数：1.00）A.soon after they learn to talkB.by looking at the clockC.when they begin

38、to be mathematically matureD.after they reach the second grade in school(4).According to the passage, when small children were asked to observe water pours from a short stout glass into a tall thin one, they found _.（分数：1.00）A.the quantity of the water unchangedB.the color of the water changedC.the

39、quantity of the water changedD.the quantity of the water became more(5).With which of the following statements would the author be LEAST likely to agree?（分数：1.00）A.Children naturally and easily learn mathematics.B.Children learn to add before they learn to subtract.C.Most people follow the same patt

40、ern of mathematical development.D.Mathematical development is subtle and gradual.十、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)It was unfortunate that, after so trouble-free an arrival, he should stumble in the dark as he was rising and severely twist his ankle on a piece of rock. After the first shock the pain became

41、bearable, and he gathered up his parachute before limping into the trees to hide it as best as he could. The hardness of the ground and the deep darkness made it almost impossible to do this efficiently. The pine needles lay several inches deep, so he simply pile them on top of the parachute, cuttin

42、g the short twigs that he could feel around his legs, and spreading them on top of the needles. He had great doubts about whether it would stay buried, but there was very little else that he could do about it.After limping for some distance in an indirect course away from his parachute he began to m

43、ake his way downhill through the trees. He had to find out where he was, and then decide what to do next. But walking downhill on a rapidly swelling ankle soon proved to be almost beyond his powers. He moved more and more slowly, walking in long sideway movements across the slope, which meant taking

44、 more steps but less painful ones. By the time he cleared the trees and reached the valley, day was breaking. Mist hung in soft sheets across the fields. Small cottages and farm buildings grouped like sleeping cattle around a village church, whose pointed tower pointed high into the cold winter air

45、to welcome the morning.“I cant go much farther,“ John Harding thought. “Someone is bound to find me, but what can I do? I must get a rest before I go on. Theyll look for me first up there on the mountain where the plane crashed. I bet they re out looking for it already and they are bound to find the

46、 parachute in the end. I can t believe they wont. So theyll know I m not dead and must be somewhere. Theyllthink Im hiding up there in the trees and rocks so theyll look for me there. So Ill go down to the village. With luck by the evening my foot will be good enough to get me to the border.“Far abo

47、ve him on the mountainside he could hear the faint echo of voices, startling him after the great silence. Looking up he saw lights like little pinpoints moving across the face of the mountain in the gray light. But the road was deserted, and he struggled along, still almost invisible in the first li

48、ght, easing his aching foot whenever he could, avoiding stones and rough places, and limping quietly and painfully towards the village. He reached the church at last. A great need for peace almost drew him inside, but he knew that would not do. Instead, he limped along its walls towards a very old b

49、uilding standing a short distance from the church doors. It seemed to have been there forever, as if it had grown out of the hill inside. It had the same air of timelessness as the church. John Harding pushed open the heavy wooden door and slipped inside.（分数：5.00）(1).It was really hard for John to hide the parachute because _.（分数：1.00）A.he had sprained his ankleB.the par
