11、l NatureFor their research， Kappelman and Dr Richard Ketcham used a CT scanner to create more than 35，000 slices of Lucys skeleton Scientists named her Lucy from the Beatles song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds， which was played at the camp the night of her discoveryThe following analysis of the slice

12、s showed sharp， clean breaks seen at the end of Lucys right humerus （肱骨） are similar to bone breaks seen in victims of fallsThe researchers concluded that these and other breaks in her skeleton show that Lucy， who is believed to have stood about 3 feet 6 inches and weighed about 60 pounds， fell feet

13、 first and used her arms to support herself but that the injury was too severe to have been survivableThe researchers estimate that Lucy was going about 35 miles an hour when she hit the ground after falling from a height of roughly 40 feet， according to the statementThat sounds plausible But other

14、scientists are doubtful There are countless explanations for bone breaks， Dr， Donald C， Johanson， director of the Institute of Human Origins and one of the scientists who discovered Lucy， said， The suggestion that she fell out of a tree is largely a justso story and therefore unprovable Johanson sai

15、d it was more likely that Lucys breaks occurred long after she died， saying that elephant bones appear to have the same kind of breaks， Its unlikely they fell out of a treeBut the new research focused on a small number of breaks that are consistent with highenergy bonetobone influences and which dif

16、fer from the sorts of breaks commonly seen in other collected bones Kappelman responded in an email， These appear to have occurred at or near the time of death 1、What can we infer about Lucy from Kappelman and Dr Richard Ketchams research？AShe got her name from a songBShe had more than 35，000 slices

17、CShe couldnt use her arms properlyDShe made an effort to save herself2、What does the underlined word plausible in Paragraph 6 probably mean？AReasonableBCreativeCSurprisingDUnbelievable3、Which of the following would Johanson probably agree？AElephants are unlikely to die from fallingBLucy got breaks a

18、t or near the time of deathCOther reasons for the breaks should be consideredDLucys bone breaks differ from other bone breaks4、What conclusion can we draw from the passage？ALucy didnt die from falling out of a treeBThe newly published study was meaninglessCThe argument on how Lucy died will continue

19、DScientists will find another way to solve the problem22（8分）Ever wondered whether punishment actually makes people cooperate (合作)? A team of scientists created an experiment to figure it out and the results were pretty unexpected.To understand what they found, you have to know why these scientists w

20、ere studying punishment. They were trying to figure out why people cooperate when its often so easy to profit at others expense. Why dont friends steal from each other? Why do parents bother to feed their children? If the answer to these questions is obvious to you, congratulations, you are ahead of

21、 scientists. Theyre still trying to figure it out.In this experiment, researchers had 225 Chinese students play a game, where if the students cooperated, theyd all get a number of points. But if one defected (變節(jié)) and everyone else cooperated, the defector would get a lot of points, and the cooperato

22、rs would lose out. This game represents a lot of real life situations where you struggle with a decision: work together and do OK, or run off with the rewards, ruining everybody elses day.This is actually a pretty ordinary economic experiment. But the researchers added two changes to see if they cou

23、ld mimic(糢擬the real world better. Change one: some students played many rounds together, so theyd learn who they could trust. Change two: people could punish each other, sacrificing a point or two to destroy another players score.In the end, the researchers found that playing multiple rounds made pe

24、ople cooperate more, which definitely mimics human society. But the whole punishment thing led to a surprise: punishing didnt actually make people cooperate more. In fact, it made them cooperate less.So the scientists still dont know why people cooperate, though it looks like it has more to do with

25、groups sticking together than it does with punishment.1、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AWhy friends dont steal from each other.BWhy researchers are studying punishment.CWhy people always profit at others expense.DWhy people cooperate rather than take advantage of others.2

26、、What happened to a defector in the experiment?AHe lost out. BHe benefited more.CHe got punished. DHe became the leader.3、What conclusion is drawn from the experiment?APunishing helps people realize their mistakes.BCooperating is a win-win policy to all.CPunishment wont work as expected.DPeople who

27、choose to cooperate are selfless.4、What might be the best title for the text?ADoes punishing people actually work?BWhy is punishment applied to cooperation?CHow can punishment contribute to cooperation?DWhat is the best way to make punishment effective?23（8分） The United States Congress is responsibl

28、e for making and approving federal lawsrules that everyone in the country must follow.But exactly how do those laws get made? The process is not easy，and it takes a long time.A law begins when someone puts forward an idea.The idea can come from anyone，but it has to get to a U.S.lawmaker who wants it

29、 to become legislation.In time，the idea is further developed into a written proposal，called a bill.Then，a member of Congress officially proposes the bill.After the bill is introduced，it is sent to a small group of lawmakers，called a“committee”.Sometimes committee members seek more information about

30、the proposal by holding hearings.Sometimes the committee changes the bill.Sometimes it decides not to take any action.In that case，we say lawmakers“table”the bill，or let it“die in committee”.But now and then，the bill is offered to lawmakers not on the committee.Those lawmakers debate the bill furthe

31、r.They might change the bill again.Finally，the full House or Senate votes on the bill.If it does not earn the majority of votes，the bill does not advance.Finally，the agreed-upon bill is sent to the president.If the president signs it，the bill becomes a law.If the president does nothing and Congress

32、is officially meeting，the bill becomes a law.But if the president does nothing and Congress is not in session，the bill does not pass.Or the president can officially reject the bill.If that happens，the bill is not stopped.Instead，it is returned to both the Senate and the House.If two-thirds of the se

33、nators and two-thirds of the House members approve the bill once again，even with the president objecting，they turn the bill into a law.1、Who is the first to propose a bill?AA lawyer.BA citizen.CA member of Congress.DA committee member.2、When does a bill finally become a law?AAfter it is sent to a co

34、mmittee.BWhen the president signs it.CAfter it returns to the Congress.DWhile Congress is not in session.3、What can be inferred from the text?ANot every bill can be turned into a law.BAnybody can put forward a proposal.CIf“tabled”，the bill has to be voted on.DOnce proposed，the bill cant be changed.2

35、4（8分）The online takeaway industry is growing in China along with the rapid development of the Internet economy. But environmental activists complain that the huge volume of plastic utensils (用具), wrapping and containers presents a great challenge to the environment, and that the heavy use of throwaw

36、ay wooden chopsticks is reducing natural resources.On September 1, the Beijing No.4 Intermediate Peoples Court accepted a lawsuit filed by the Chongqing Green Volunteer League, an environmental non-government organization (NGO), against the countrys three largest food delivery platformsBaidu Waimai,

37、 Ele.me and Meituan. The NGO stated that the companies failed to provide customers with the choice to not receive throwaway plastic utensils along with their food deliveries. Meanwhile, these utensils have created large amounts of rubbish and caused serious ecological damage.In response, both Meitua

38、n and Ele.me, which acquired Baidu Waimai in August, have promised to take measures to reduce plastic waste. Meituan announced that it would appoint a chief environmental officer to oversee environmental issues from plastic waste and upgrade its smartphone app to provide consumers with the option of

39、 ordering food without single-use chopsticks, spoons or napkins. Ele.me followed by offering a similar choice and putting forward a plan to introduce suppliers of degradable (可降解的) plastic utensils to restaurants in the long term.Is there a possible way out? Combined efforts by delivery platforms, c

40、onsumers, restaurants and government departments are required to address plastic waste pollution.For platforms, promoting environmental protection and introducing this idea to consumers are a meaningful move. Moreover, in the future, they should also make strict rules on the use of plastic utensils.

41、 For example, no more than one plastic bag should be used to wrap soup dishes, and all plastic products should be degradable. It is a long and difficult task for them, and the recent reactions from Ele.me and Meituan are just beginnings.Considering most takeout food packaging is thrown into garbage

42、bins and then taken away along with other household garbage, sorting of waste also becomes more important. Government departments could play a major role in this, and by recycling some materials, waste pollution could be reduced and resources saved. Furthermore, there have been growing calls that th

43、e government should also invest more in developing degradable plastic products or environmentally friendly alternatives.Though consumers enjoy the convenience yet also suffer exposure to the pollution, many of them have paid little attention to the plastic waste problem. Environmental groups suggest

44、 that consumers change their habits a little by using their own utensils and dishes and refusing unnecessary plastic containers.1、The Chongqing Green Volunteer League accused the three food delivery platforms of _.Acausing damage to peoples healthBviolating environmental standardsCusing many wooden

45、chopsticksDoffering no utensil option2、The author suggests food delivery platforms _.Araise peoples awareness Bresearch possible alternativesCupgrade their application design Dhire a chief environmental officer3、Who probably plays a more important role in promoting the categorization of rubbish?AGov

46、ernment departments. BFood delivery platforms.CEnvironmental groups. DFast food restaurants.4、The passage is mainly concerned with _.Awhy environmental problems ariseBwho food delivery platforms affect mostChow plastic utensil pollution can be solvedDwhat efforts environmental groups have made25（10分

47、）Dry Ice is a unique substance which has many uses. Essentially, dry ice is frozen CO2. The first report of what we now call dry ice came from the French chemist Charles Thilorier in 1834. In 1924, the Drylee Corporation of America named the solid form of CO2 as Dry Ice, which is what it is popularl

48、y called today.At normal atmospheric pressure, CO2changes directly from solid to gas. It skips the liquid phase（階段）which makes regular ice wet. Frozen CO2is also much colder than regular ice. But regular ice freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, CO2 changes from gas to solid at -109.3 degrees Fahrenheit

49、. This extremely cold temperature makes it very dangerous to handle with bare hands. It can cause frostbite in a very short period of time.Dry ice has been used for a variety of purposes throughout the past century. Its primary use is to refrigerate food when electrical refrigeration isnt available.

50、 Through the process of sublimation (when CO2 changes from solid to gas), it can maintain cold food for a long time.If youve ever been to a play and seen heavy fog on the ground, it is likely that you have seen dry ice in action. This effect can be achieved because CO2 is heavier than air, so evapor

51、ated （揮發(fā)的）CO2 will sink and accumulate on the ground.Another interesting use for this substance is to bait（誘殺）insects like mosquitoes. These insects have sensors which guide them to CO2. They find the high concentration of CO2 in dry ice quite attractive.Mars has long been a mystery for human beings

52、. We have been looking for evidence of life on Mars. In the 1960s scientists guessed that the polar ice cap of Mars was made of frozen CO2. More recent observations have shown that while the topmost layer consists of frozen CO2, the most of it is probably regular frozen water.1、Frozen CO2 gets its n

53、ame of Dry Ice mainly becauseAit is very easy to make it dryBwe cant melt it and it doesnt get wetCit looks like ice at a low temperatureDit is solid like ice at -109.3 degrees Fahrenheit2、The underlined word frostbite in the second paragraph probably meansAthe shakes caused by coldBdamage caused by

54、 freezingCa fever caused by being coldDa sharp pain caused by bums3、According to the passage, dry ice can be used toAfreeze most of food in the next centuryBincrease the production of farmingCmake a vivid fog effect on stagesDhelp to improve the environment4、What does the last paragraph mainly tell

55、us?ADry ice on Mars is near the polar.BNot much dry ice has been found on Mars.CThe polar ice cap of Mars is unique.DNo frozen CO, on Mars can be melt.第三部分 語言知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)26（30分）In 1956 Phoenix, Arizona, was a city with boundless blue 1 .
