My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. Awire basket was found. I put some pine branches
12、into thebasket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmeddown. Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner arecording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults;they
13、 might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much informationas possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! Thehomeowner called to say that the parents had responded

17、ver certain.可知救助受伤动物是令人心碎的，因为不知道救助的动物是否能活下去，也就是为救助动物而花费的努力可能会白费，这是不可避免的。故 选A。25.推理判断题。根据第二段中的She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. WhenI arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl.可知有人给作者打电话是因为有只小猫头鹰掉在地上了，作者赶过去看看情况。文中并没有说小猫头鹰受伤了，作者只是过去看情况，所以D选项错误，故选C。26.细节理解题。根据第四段中的I placed the chick in the nest,
18、 and it quickly calmed down.可知在作者把小猫头鹰放在窝里之后，它很快就安静下来，所以是窝让小猫头鹰安静下来的。故选A。27.观点态度题。根据前文描述可知作者为小猫头鹰做了窝，并且帮助它找回了父母，小猫头鹰的父母还未它带回了午餐，作者的救助成功了，说明结局是美好的。在结合第一段的However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.可推测，作者感觉很美好。故选B。答案：24.A 25. C 26.A 27. B CSome of the worlds most famous musicians recently gathered
19、 in Paris and New Orleans tocelebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO (United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazzmusic, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.Despite
20、the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and growolder, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.Its Jason Morans job to help change that. As the Kennedy Centers artistic adviser for jazz,Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the musi
21、c more accessible, and preserve itshistory and culture.“Jazz seems like its not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National PublicRadios reporter Neal Conan. “What Im hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black an
22、d write anymore. Its actually color, andits actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the musichas been lost. “The music cant be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has tocontinue to move, because the way the world works is no
23、t the same,” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Wallers music for a dance party,“just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, its the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感)
24、lie?Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how talk about ourselves and how something asabstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts?Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “so I want to continuethose dialogue
25、s. Those are the things I want to foster.”28. Why did UNESCO setApril 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To remember the birth of jazz.B. To protect cultural diversity.C. To encourage people to study music.D. To recognize the value of jazz.29. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer t
26、o?A. Jazz becoming more accessible. B. The production of jazz growing faster.C. Jazz being less popular with the young.D. The jazz audience becoming larger.30. What can we infer about Morans opinion on jazz?A. It will disappear gradually.B. It remains black and white.C. It should keep up with the ti
27、mes.D. It changes every 50 years.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Exploring the Future of JazzB. The Rise and Fall of JazzC. The Story of a Jazz Musician D. Celebrating the Jazz Day解析：28.细节理解题。根据第一段中的UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientificand Cultural Organizat
28、ion) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, itssignificance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.可知UNESCO把4月30号定位国际爵士日是为了让人们重视爵士乐，意识到它的重要性以及它作为连接各文化的纽带之声的潜在功能，也就是为了让人们意识到爵士乐的价值。故选D。29.推理判断题。根据前文Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz aud
29、iencecontinues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.可知尽管UNESCO为爵士乐设了纪念日，但美国的爵士乐听众依然在减少，并且年龄在老化，爵士乐没能将年轻一代人连接起来。再结合Its Jason Morans job to help change that（是Jason Moran的工作是帮助改变那一情况）可推测that指代的是前文中爵士乐在年轻一代中失去吸引力的现象。故选C。 30.细节理解题。根据第五段中的The music cant be
30、 presented today the way it was in 1908or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,可知Moran认为现在爵士乐不能以19.8或1958年的方式来呈现，因为世界已经不同了，所以爵士乐必须不断进步，说明随着时代的发展，爵士乐也要跟上时代才不会被年轻一代抛弃。故选C。31.标题选择题。通读全文可知本文主要讲UNESCO为提高人们对爵士乐的重视而设立爵士日，但实际收效甚微。有人认为爵士乐应随着时代的进步而进步，否则将失去对人们的吸引力，因
31、此本文主要是探索爵士乐的未来，故选A。 答案：28. D 29. C 30. C 31.A DA build-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器) is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water inareas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Departmentof Agriculture, its an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you
32、must carry the necessaryequipment with you, since its all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only componentsrequired, though, are a 55 sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and acontainer perhaps just a drinking cup to catch the water. These pieces can be f
33、olded into aneat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and threefeet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catchers productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay
34、the tube in place so that one end rests all the wayin the cup and the rest of the line runs up and out the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt andweighting the sheets center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体
35、) with45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no morethan three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the
36、material and fall offinto the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, andwont have to break down the still every time you need a drink.32. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A. Its delicate. B. Its expensive.C. Its com
37、plex.D. Its portable.33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.34. Whats the last step of constructing a working solar still?A. Dig a hole of a certain size.B. Put the cup in place.C. Weight the sheets center down.
38、 D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.35. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup from _.A. the plastic tubeB. outside the holeC. the open airD. beneath the sheet解析：32.推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句话These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.可知制作整流器的东西可以叠放在一
39、个小包里，系在腰间，这说明制作整流器的设备很轻便，portable表示“轻便的；手提的”，故选D。33.推理判断题。根据Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catchersproductivity.可知最好在潮湿的地方挖洞，以提高接水器的工作效率。“接水器”指的是在潮湿的地方挖洞，在洞的底部放一个杯子，杯子上方用膜覆盖，整个装置构成接水器，而不是某个部分。这一题很容易错选D，但是就算在干燥的地方挖洞，杯子也可以接水，杯子接水的事实并不会因为周围环境的变化而变化，杯子的工作效率是不变的。故选B。34.细节理解题。根据
40、第三段Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edgesof the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheets center down with a rock.可知最后一步是weighting the sheets center down with a rock（放一块石头在覆盖膜的中间，把它压下去），故选C。35.推理判断题。结合第三段中的Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small d
41、rops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup.可知地下水蒸发，在覆盖膜上聚集起来，直到形成小水滴在杯子里，覆盖膜是在杯子上面的，水滴落入杯子里，所以水滴是凝聚在覆盖膜的下面。故选D。答案：32. D 33. B 34. C 35.

42、ekendscamping, I would have laughed heartily. Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insectbites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me.36 The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. 37We sleep in a tent, cooke
43、d over an open fire, and walked a long distance to take the shower anduse the bathroom. This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recoveringfrom a bad case of sunburn and the doctors bill for my sons food poisoning.I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-fille

47、 more than 3 feet tall. 解析：36.根据前文可知三年前作者认为露营和自己无关，而后文中表明作者热爱露营，暗示此处作者对待露营的情感态度应该出现转变。D选项中的however表示转折。其次，Ifanyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping暗示作者态度的转变就在三年前，D选项中的since then“自从那时候起”和前文时间吻合。故选D。37.根据后文We sleep in a tent, cooked over an open fire, an
48、d walked a long distance to takethe shower and use the bathroom.可知作者第一次露营条件和艰苦，C选项The trip they look meon was a rough one.中的rough暗示了这一点，符合语境。故选C。38.根据前文We sleep in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distance to takethe shower and use the bathroom.可知作者第一次露营时住帐篷，露天生活做饭，走很远的距离去洗澡、上厕所，条
49、件很艰苦，而后文Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable bedsand an air conditioner.说明作者第二次露营有床有空调。A选项This time there was no tent“这 次没有帐篷了”暗示作者进行了第二次露营，而且条件比较好，符合语境。故选A。39.根据后文we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and abuilt-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer evenhas matching carpet and curtains.可知作者一家为了露营买了房车，里面设备齐全，说明作者一家是喜欢露营的。F选项After the trip, my family became quite interested in camping（那次露营之后，我的家人开始对露营感兴趣）符合语境，故选F。40.根据后文It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way
