第二節(jié)簡(jiǎn)答題(共3小題;每小題1.5分,滿分4.5分)
Tsunamis (海嘯) are a series of huge waves created by an underground movement such as an earthquake or a volcanic eruption (火山噴發(fā)) . A tsunami can travel hundreds of miles per hour in the open ocean and hit the land with huge waves.
From the area where the tsunamis come, waves travel in all directions. Once the waves approach the coast, they will become more than 100 feet in height. The topography (地形) of the coastline and the ocean floor will influence the size of the wave. There may be more than one wave and the latter one may be larger than the one before. That is why a small tsunami at one beach can be a huge wave a few miles away.
All tsunamis are dangerous, even if they may not damage every coastline they strike. A tsunami can strike anywhere along most of the US coastline. Many harmful tsunamis have occurred along the coasts of California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska and Hawaii.
A movement of the ocean floor, caused by earthquakes, most often causes tsunamis. If a tsunami occurs close to a coast, the first wave could reach the beach in a few minutes, even before a warning is given. Areas are at greater risk if they are less than 25 feet above sea level and within a mile of the coastline. Drowning is the most common cause of death during a tsunami. Tsunami waves are very harmful to buildings. Other dangers include floods, pollution of drinking water, and fires from gas lines.
An accurate prediction (預(yù)報(bào)) system will allow authorities (官方) to issue timely warnings and save lives in the event of a shore-bound tsunami. But forecasting tsunamis accurately is very difficult because the ocean is usually calm before they strike land.
65. What can cause tsunamis according to the passage? ( 回答詞數(shù)不超過(guò)6個(gè) )
______________________________________________________________________________
66. What harm can a tsunami bring besides killing people and damaging buildings? ( 回答詞數(shù)不超過(guò)15個(gè) )
______________________________________________________________________________
67. Why is it very difficult to forecast tsunami accurately ? ( 回答詞數(shù)不超過(guò)9個(gè) )

The Peppered Moth, a kind of insect, is found in England. It is light brown in color and likes to settle on trees which are also light brown. This makes the moth difficult to be seen and birds are less likely to notice and eat it.
But with the development of industry, smoke from factories began to reach the trees where the moth settled. It made the trees blacker. Then something very strange took place: in industrial areas, the Peppered Moth began to change color. It became darker as well. Although the change took several years, some scientists soon noticed that newly-born moths were a little darker than usual.
A scientist called Kettle Well decided to make a careful study of this. He marked some of the light moths and some of the darker ones, and set them free in the woods near Birmingham, an industrial city. Later he retarget as many the marked moths as possible ( The result was given in the chart ).
Kettle Well’s research was done in the early 1950s. Soon afterwards Britain introduced new laws to reduce smoke and factory pollution.
Can you imagine what would happen to the Peppered Moth as the air became cleaner again? 
 
light moths
darker moths
Moths set free

In late March, Southwest University became the first school in China to open a 24-hour hotline providing suicide-prevention counseling.
College suicide is a heart-breaking and argumentative topic.Chinese college students have long been the focus of public attention: their youth, education and, most importantly, bright futures make them the envy of society.
However, in recent years, we've read more reports of student suicides.Perhaps that's simply because of society's attention with youth.But it could also signify the increasing troubled mental state of college students.
Many studies have sought to find out the causes of student suicides.Not surprisingly, the top factors usually include psychological and physical sickness, emotional trouble and peer pressure.Despair about their futures is also quickly becoming a leading factor: many students say they feel hopeless and confused about the direction of their careers in a crowded job market.
Thankfully, more and more universities and colleges are providing counseling services to address students' mental and psychological problems.These at least offer some comfort to students facing tough job prospects and personal difficulties.
From appointing in-house student counselors to setting up hotlines and recruiting students to help their troubled peers, many universities are making efforts to fight student depression.There is no denying that much remains to be done, but such efforts are already working, helping students and saving lives.
However, the most important front in this battle lies with the students themselves.Whatever efforts school officials make, it is up to students to realize their problems and ask for help.Unfortunately, many students considering suicide refuse to seek help.By shutting themselves away, they can easily fall into vicious cycles (惡性循環(huán)), becoming even more easily hurt to personal
difficulties and the pressures of the outside world.
While establishing better on-campus psychological education and outreach programs as a step forward, students themselves must actively reach out for help.These dangers are a reality for every
student, not only those who feel confused and depressed.
63.Why are there so many students that commit suicide?
A.Because of psychological and physical sickness.?
B.Because they feel hopeless and confused about their future.
C.Because of the emotional trouble.
D.All of the above.
64.According to the article, all of the following are right except ____.
A.No university in China had a whole day hotline about suicide-prevention before March.
B.Many people envy the college students their bright futures.
C.The students who feel confused and depressed may need psychological education.
D.The problems of student suicides indicate the increasing troubled mental state of youths.
65.The key to avoid student suicides is that ____.
A.parents communicate with their children and understand them
B.colleges and universities offer more help to students
C.students themselves realize their problems and seek help from others
D.friends give more comfort and show more understanding to the problem students
66.Which of the following can be the main idea for this article?
A.Help is at hand for suicidal students.
B.More college students commit suicide.
C.How can students avoid committing suicide?
D.Why do college students feel depressed?

“Long time no see” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s email, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect 21       of Chinglish.

To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages 24        “l(fā)ong time no see”. This sentence has been 25          used in emails, letters, newspapers, movies, books, or any other possible place. Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily.  26         , if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.
  Nobody knows the 27         of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully 28         a world wide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting(引用) Confucius(孔子). “Long time no see” was his trademark. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see” became a popular phrase in the real world thanks to the popularity of these movies.

  Even plant can run a fever, especially when they’re under attack by insects or disease. But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3, 000 feet away - straight up. A decade ago, adopting the infrared (紅外線)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide (殺蟲(chóng)劑)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don’t have pest (害蟲(chóng))problems.
  Even better, Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3, 000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color - coded map showing where plants were running“ fevers”. Farmers could then spot - spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.
  The bad news is that Paley’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long - term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson , who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only ff Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.
 56.Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are________.
  A. sprayed with pesticides     B. facing an infrared scanner
  C. in poor physical condition   D. exposed to excessive sun rays
 57.In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to________.
  A. estimate the damage to the crops    B. measure the size of the affected area
  C. draw a color -coded map          D. locate the problem area
 58.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by________.
  A. resorting to spot – spraying   B. consulting infrared scanning experts
  C. transforming poisoned rain    D. detecting crop problems at an early stage
 59.The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties________.,
  A. the lack of official support        B. its high cost
  C. the lack of financial support      D. its failure to help increase production
 60.Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of________.
  A. the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce
  B. growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on crops
  C. the forceful promotion by the Department of Agriculture
  D. full support from agricultural experts
