For each statement th
25、ere are four choices marked A, B, C and D, you should make the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.On the morning of November 18, 1755, an earthquake shook Boston, Massachusetts. John Winthrop, a professor at Havard College, felt th
26、e quake and awoke, “I rose,“ Winthrop wrote, “and lighting a candle, looked on my watch, and found it was 15 minutes after four.“ John Winthrop went downstaris to the grandfather clock. It had stopped four minutes before, at 4:11. Except for stopping the clock, the quake had only thrown a key from t
27、he mantel (壁炉台) to the floor.The clock had stopped because Winthrop had put some long glass tubes he was using for an experiment into the case for care. The quake had knocked the tubes over and blocked the pendulum (钟摆). Winthrop, therefore, had the exact time that the earthquake had hit Boston. He
28、looked at the key on the floor. The quake had thrown it forward in the direction of the quakes motion by a shock coming from the northwest, perhaps in Canada.（分数：10.00）(1).The text proves that _. A. the power of nature is terrible B. earthquakes happen most often during nighttime hours C. the direct
29、ion of an earthquake can be discovered D. universities study the cause of earthquakes（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The text suggests that _. A.

33、Task 2/B(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 unfinished statements or questions. For each statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, you should make the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throug
34、h the center.Imagine you are Alice, stepping through the looking glass. Suddenly everything is reversed. Doorknobs are on the wrong side of doors. The gearshift in your car is in the wrong place.Twenty-five million Americans wake up every day in just such an awkward situation. They are the one in te
35、n of us who are left-handed and must face the world designed for the right-handed majority.Why we are left-or-right-handed remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of science. We know that nearly two out of three lefties are male and that left-handedness must run in families. According to one stu
36、dy, almost half the offspring of two left-handed parents will be left-handed. The Scots-Irish family Kerr (from the Gaelic word for “left“) produced so many left-handers that in 1470 the family built its castles spiral stairways with a reverse twist to favor left-handed swordsmen.On the other hand,
37、heredity alone cannot explain lefties. At least 84 percent of them are born of two right-handed parents. And in 12 percent of genetically identical twins, one will be right-handed, the other left.Perhaps the greatest puzzle of all is not why some people are left-handed, but rather why so few are. So
38、, scientists are trying to discover the truth of the matter, and they are beginning to gain insight into many ways left-handed differ from right-handed by considering how their brains work.（分数：10.00）(1).How many of the Americans are left-handers? A. 10%. B. 12%. C. 50%. D. 80%.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).A
39、mong the left-handers, _. A. few are man B. most of them are women C. half of them are men D. two thirds are men（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. Almost half of the children of two left-handed parents will be left-handed. B. At least 84 percent of
40、left-handers are born of two right-handed parents. C. One in ten of Americans are left-handed. D. In the majority of genetically identical twins, one will be right handed, the other left.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).In the third paragraph, the word “offspring“ means _. A. relatives B. sons C. daughters D. c

A. has nothing to do with heredity B. remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of science C. has little to do with the working of their brains D. is that left-handers are mainly twins（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.九、BTask 3/B(总题数：1，分数：10.00)D
42、irections: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 unfinished statements or questions. For each statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, you should make the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Relations be
43、tween the United States and Columbia suffered for many years because of an incident involving the Republic of Panama. By the end of the Spanish-American war, Americans felt an easier and faster way was needed to get ships from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. Some people in the United States
44、 first believed a canal across Nicaragua was the answer. However, President Theodore Roosevelt decided that a canal through Panama would be a better choice. In order to build the canal, the United States had to negotiate with Columbia, which at the time controlled Panama. Roosevelt offered Colombia,
45、 $10 million plus $250,000 a year for a six-mile-wide strip of land across Panama. Columbia rejected the U.S. offer. This angered President Theodore Roosevelt, and negotiations with Columbia ended. In 1903, a revolution broke out in Panama. United States ships were sent by President Roosevelt to pro
46、tect Panamanian revolutionaries from Columbia forces. The revolution succeeded, and Panama declared its independence from Columbia. The United States then negotiated with the newly formed government. A treaty was signed, and the United States began building the canal.As a result of the incident, Col
47、umbia and the United States remained on bad terms for many years. Not until 1921, when the United States agreed to pay Columbia some compensation for the loss of its territory, did relations between the two countries improve.（分数：10.00）(1).Why does the U.S. want to build a canal across Panama? A. It is used to resist Spanish soldiers. B. The U.S. can profit from the canal economically. C. It would be easier to get ships from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. D. It is a sign of the national power o
