A novel can be on the “best seller“ lists with a sale of fewer than 100, 000 copies, hut a popular TV show might have 70 million TV viewers. TV can make anything or anyone well-known

8、 overnight. This is the principle behind “quiz“ or “game“ shows, which put ordinary people on TV to play a game for prizes and money. A quiz show can make anyone a star, and it can give away thousands of dollars in the U.S. and almost everyone watched them. Charles Van Doren, an English instructor,

9、became rich and famous after winning money on several shows. He even had a career as a television personality . But one of the losers proved that Charles Van Doren was cheating. It turned out that the shows producers who were pulling the strings, gave the answers to the most popular contestants (竞争者

10、 ) beforehand . Why? Because if the audience didnt like the person who won the game, they turned the show off. The result of this cheating was a huge scandal. Based on this story, a movie under the title “Quiz Show“ is on 40 years later. Charles Van Doren is no longer involved with TV. But game show

11、s are still here, though they arent taken as seriously. In fact, some of them try to be as ridiculous as possible. There are shows that send strangers on vacation trips together, or that try to cause newly-married couples to fight on TV, or that punish losers by humiliation (羞辱 ) them. The entertain

12、ment now is to see what people will do just to be on TV. People still win money, but the real prize is to be in front of an audience of millions. 16 TV can make a beggar world-famous overnight. ( A) Right ( B) Wrong ( C) Not mentioned 17 The principle behind “quiz“ and “game“ shows is to put ordinar

13、y people on TV to play a game for prizes and money. ( A) Right ( B) Wrong ( C) Not mentioned 18 Prizes and money are usually provided by TV stars and large companies for winners. ( A) Right ( B) Wrong ( C) Not mentioned 19 One of the TV personalities, Charles Van Doren was proved to be cheating by p

14、ersuading the Shows producers to give him the answers beforehand ( A) Right ( B) Wrong ( C) Not mentioned 20 The huge scandal of cheating in TV game shows was not exposed until 40 years later in the movie “Quiz Show“. ( A) Right ( B) Wrong ( C) Not mentioned 21 Nowadays game shows are not treated as

15、 seriously as they used to be. ( A) Right ( B) Wrong ( C) Not mentioned 22 Winners of present-day TV game shows no longer get money from the shows.

16、 6个选项中为每个句子确定一个最佳选项。 22 Hurricanes 1 Did you know that before 1950, hurricanes had no names? They were simply given numbers. The first names were simply Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, etc. but in 1953, females names were given because of the unpredictability (不可预知 ) factor of the storms. In 1979, realizing

17、the sexist (性别歧视的 ) nature of such names, the lists were expanded to include both men and women. 2 Hurricanes and typhoons (台风 ) are the same things. If they form in the Atlantic, we call these strong storms hurricanes, from the West Indian word hurricane, meaning “big wind“. And if they are Pacific

18、 storms, they are called typhoons from the Chinese taifun, meaning “great wind“. To be classified as a hurricane, the storm must have maximum winds of at least 75 mph. These storms are big, many hundreds of miles in diameter. 3 Hurricanes get their power from water vapor as it gives out its stored-u

19、p energy. All water vapor gives out heat as it condenses (凝结 ) from a gaseous state to a liquid state over fixed points on the equator (赤道 ). To make a hurricane, you must have extremely wet, warm air, the kind of air that can only be found in tropical region. 4 Scientists have determined that the h

20、eat given out in the process of water condensation can be as high as 95 billion kilowatts per hour. In just one day alone, the storm can produce more energy than many industrialized nations need in an entire year! The problem is that we dont know how to make sure such great energy work for us. 5 Pre

21、dicting the path of a hurricane is one of the most difficult tasks for forecasters. It moves at a typical speed of 15 mph. But not always. Some storms may race at twice this speed, then suddenly stop and remain in the same location for several days. It can be maddening (发疯的 ) if you live in a coasta

22、l area that may be hit. 6 The biggest advance in early detection is continuous watch from weather satellites. With these, we can see the storms form and track them fully, from birth to death. While they can still kill people and destroy property, hurricanes will never surprise any nation again. A A

23、short history of naming hurricanes B Harnessing the hurricane energy C Difficulty in forecasting the course of a hurricane D Huge energy stored in a hurricane E. Forecasting a hurricane through satellite watching F. Different names for the same things 23 Paragraph 1 _ 24 Paragraph 2 _ 25 Paragraph 4

24、 _ 26 Paragraph 5 _ 26 A the timely (及时的 ) discovery B convenience C sex equality D its connection with humans E. the huge power F. its uncertainty 27 Both male and female names are used for hurricanes in consideration of _. 28 Using weather satellites can ensure _ of hurricanes. 29 Energy specialis

25、ts may be interested in _ of hurricanes. 30 Scientists cannot accurately predict the course of a hurricane due to _. 四、 阅读理解 (第 31-45题,每题 3分,共 45分 ) 下面有 3篇短文后有 5道题。请根据短文内容,为每题选 1个最佳选项。 30 Clone Farm Factory farming could soon enter a new era of mass production. Companies in the US are developing the

26、 technology needed to “clone“ chickens on a massive scale. Once a chicken with desirable traits has been bred or genetically engineered, tens of thousands of eggs, which will hatch into identical copies, could roll off the production lines every hour. Billions of clones could be produced each year t

27、o supply chicken farms with birds that all grow at the same rate, have the same amount of meat and taste the same. This, at least, is the vision of the USs National Institute of Science and Technology, which has given Origen Therapeutics of Burlingame, California, and Embrex of North Carolina $ 4.7

28、million to help fund research. The prospect has alarmed animal welfare groups, who fear it could increase the suffering of farm birds. Thats unlikely to put off the poultry industry, however, which wants disease resistant birds that grow faster on less food. “Producers would like the same meat quant

29、ity but to use reduced inputs to get there. “ says Mike Fitzgerald of Origen. To meet this demand, Origen aims to “create an animal that is effectively a clone“, he says. Normal cloning doesnt work in birds because eggs cant be removed and implanted. Instead, the company is trying to bulk-grow embry

30、onic stem cells taken from fertilized eggs as soon as theyre laid. “The trick is to culture the cells without them starting to distinguish, so they remain pluripotent. “ says Fitzgerald. Using a long-established technique, these donor cells will then be injected into the embryo of a freshly laid, fe

31、rtilized recipient egg, forming a chick that is a “chimera“. Strictly speaking, a chimera isnt a clone, because it contains cells from both donor and recipient. But Fitzgerald says it will be enough if, 95 percent of a chickens body develops from donor cells. “In the poultry world, it doesnt matter

32、if its not 100 percent. “ he says. Another challenge for Origen is to scale up production. To do this, it has teamed up with Embrex, which produces machines that can inject vaccines into up to 50,000 eggs an hour. Embrex is now trying to modify the machines to locate the embryo and inject the cells

33、into precisely the right spot without killing it. In future, Origen imagines freezing stem cells from different strains of chicken. If orders come in for a particular strain, millions of eggs could be produced in months or even weeks. At present, maintaining all the varieties the market might call f

34、or is too expensive for breeders, and it takes years to bread enough chickens to produce the billions of eggs that farmers need. 31 Which statement is the best description of the new era of factory farming according to the first paragraph? ( A) Eggs are all genetically engineered ( B) Thousands of e

35、ggs are produced every hour. ( C) Cloned chickens are bulk-produced with the same growth rate, weight and taste. ( D) Identical eggs can be hatched on the production lines. 32 Which institution has offered $ 4.7 million to fund the research? ( A) The USs National Institute of Science and Technology.

36、 ( B) Origen therapeutics of Burlingame, California ( C) Embrex of North Carolina ( D) Animal welfare groups. 33 In the third paragraph, by saying “Producers would like the same meat quantity but to use reduced inputs to get there“. Mike Fitzgerald means that he wishes _ ( A) chickens quality could

37、be maintained but with less investment. ( B) chickens taste could be improved but at less costs. ( C) chickens growth rate could be quickened but with less inputs. ( D) chickens could grow to the same weight but with less feed 34 Which of the following statements about Origen and Embrex is correct a

38、ccording to the fifth paragraph? ( A) Origen and Embrex will jointly invent machines to increase production. ( B) Origen wants to purchase an efficient donor cells injecting machine. ( C) Origen has joined hands with Embrex in producing cell-injecting machines. ( D) Origen is the leading company in

39、producing embryo-locating machines. 35 The technology of freezing stem cells from different strains of chicken can do all the following EXCEPT that _ ( A) farmers can order certain strains of chicken only. ( B) Origen can supply all the strains of chicken the market might need ( C) chicken farmers o

40、rder certain strains of chicken for economic reasons. ( D) chicken farmers can be supplied with whatever strain they need 35 Kobe Bryant After 10 seasons wearing the No. 8 on his back, Kobe Bryant will become No. 24 next season. The reason for the surprising decision by the Los Angeles Lakers super

41、guard last week has become a hot topic for debate. Bryant wore No. 24 when he was in early high school, but he changed to No. 33 in his senior year. He switched to No. 8 when he was selected by the Lakers in 1996, and has not been changed since. Bryant has refused to explain the decision until the e

42、nd of the play-offs (季后赛 ). So guessing Bryants motive has become a popular game among NBA fans and newspaper columnists(专栏作家 ). There are all kinds of speculations. Many say that Bryant wants to leave the past behind and have a fresh start. He has often been criticized for playing to benefit himsel

43、f and not the team as a whole. Others say that he may be trying to compare himself to Michael Jordan. Jordan was famous for his No. 23 jersey(运动衫 ). Some, such as NBA Sport columnist Michael Venter, argue that it is “all about money“. Bryant will make more money by selling new jerseys to his fans. S

44、ome speculations are more about fun. For example, there is an opinion that Kobe is actually just a diehard(非常执著的 ) fan of the popular TV drama“24“. All this talk has turned the number change into a major issue. It seems that there is a lot of fuss (大惊小怪 ) over something that should be pretty simple.

45、 Jersey numbers have their own special significance in American sports, especially basketball. Players choose their number when they join a team and they usually stick with that number for the rest of their career. When a great player retires, his team will honor him by retiring his number. To some

46、extent, the jersey is the player, and the player is the jersey. Thus, when you see the famous No. 23 for the Chicago Bulls, you immediately think about Michael Jordan. A No. 32 Miami Heats jersey recalls the image of Shaquille ONeal, and the Houston Rockets No. 11 belongs only to Yao Ming. Lots of s

47、tories are behind players jersey number selections. Jordan said that he chose No. 23 because it was roughly half of 45 Jordans elder brother wore the No. 45 in college. Yao Ming once revealed that the No. 11 stands for two people in love meaning him and his girlfriend Ye Li. 36 Which team has Bryant

48、 played for? ( A) The Los Angeles Lakers. ( B) The Houston Rockets. ( C) The Chicago Bulls. ( D) The Miami Heats. 37 How long has Bryant been wearing No. 8 ? ( A) Since he started to play basketball. ( B) For ten seasons. ( C) Since he entered high school. ( D) Since he left the Lakers. 38 Which of

49、the following is NOT a speculation about Bryants motive to change his number, according to this passage? ( A) He wants to leave his past behind and have a fresh start. ( B) He wants to compare himself to Jordan. ( C) He wants to earn more money. ( D) He wants to show that he is a man of great importance. 39 Why did Jordan choose No. 23? ( A) Because that number would make him famous. ( B) Because that number would make his fans miss him. (
