7、择 C。 15 The Theory of Everything If Stephen Hawking lives until the year 2017, he will have lived more than 50 years longer than his doctors expected. When he was a college student, doctors discovered that he had a rare disease. This disease causes a gradual disintegration(分解 )of the nerve cells in

8、the brain cells that regulate voluntary muscle activity. Death almost always occurs within two or three years. Today Stephen Hawking cannot walk or speak. He cannot move his arms or his head. He can not taste or smell anything. And yet this man is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a

9、position held by the famous scientist Isaac Newton in 1669. Hawking is often described as the greatest scientist since Albert Einstein, but to the world outside science. He is also known as the man who made scientific theory understandable. His book, A Brief History of Time, has sold over eight mill

10、ion copies. He says that since he does not have to think about his body or do any of the things other men have to worry about, such as washing the car or working in the yard, he can dedicate all of his time to thinking. This puts him in the perfect position to find the answer to the question that he

11、 has dedicated his life to. His question is; Is there a complete theory of the universe and everything in it? Despite his tremendous physical disabilities, he has already made some very important discoveries about the origin of the universe, how the universe holds together, and how it will probably

12、end. He has also been able to explain the secrets of “black holes“ in space. Now he is looking for a set of rules that everything in our universe must obey. He calls it the Theory of Everything. He thinks that someone will have found the answer within the next 20 years. If Stephen Hawking is able to

13、 find his Theory of Everything, he will have given the world the opportunity to understand things that will change the whole nature of science and probably also the way we live. 16 Stephen Hawking will be 50 years old by 2017. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 17 Stephen Hawking suffers from

14、a rare brain disease. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 18 Stephen Hawking is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 19 A Brief History of Time is very difficult for students to understand. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 20 Stephen

15、 Hawking has much time to think because he doesn t have to do any other work. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 21 Stephen Hawking has spent around ten years explaining the secrets of “black holes“. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 22 The Theory of Everything is about the rules that e

Newspaper c

17、irculation(销量 )in Europe is falling and Ireland and the UK have experienced the biggest drop. Despite this, the news isn t all bad for the industry. Global newspaper sales are increasing. Nevertheless, it is clear that newspapers need to change to meet the demands of a rapidly changing readership in

18、 a digital world. 2 The industry in Europe has made a number of changes, such as introducing more color and moving from the big broadsheets to the much more user-friendly size. The most radical innovation has been the introduction of online newspapers. But are online papers here to stay? On the one

19、hand, it is clear from the large increase in online readers that e-papers are popular. On the other hand, their financial future is not so certain. This is basically because most people are not prepared to pay for online news. In fact, if it wasnt for advertising(做广告 ), online newspapers would have

20、a very hard time indeed. 3 A growing number of people are reading electronic newspapers instead of the print press and with good reason. First of all, they can read the news whenever they want. Secondly, readers are free to explore a subject as much or as little as they want. Thirdly, it is the perf

21、ect medium for “real-time“ news. 4 The general view is that the future “paper“ will be a multimedia(多媒体 )mix. Advanced technology and programming software will allow the user to create their own “news package“. And it will arrive immediately, fed by super-fast Internet connections. The reader will r

22、eceive up-to-the-minute news about everything from their local traffic problems to updates(更新 )on news of specific interest to them. Nobody knows for sure what will happen, but as one expert puts it,“ We won t be saying Here is the news ,we will be saying, Here is your news. A Traditional papers nee

23、d to change B Global newspaper giants C The influence of the traditional press D Why do readers like e-papers? E Are online papers here to stay? F How will newspapers change? 23 Paragraph 1_ 24 Paragraph 2_ 25 Paragraph 3_ 26 Paragraph 4_ 26 A different media B reporters C the user-friendly size D “

25、bination of_. 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 Outside-the-classroom Learning Putting a group of college students in charge of a $ 300,000 Dance Marathon, fundraiser surely sounds a bit risky. When you consider the fact that the money is supposed to be given to

26、children in need of medicaf care, you might call the idea crazy. Most student leaders don t want to spend a large amount of time on something they care little about, said 22-year-old University of Florida student Darren Heitner. He was the Dance Marathon s operations officer for two years. Yvonne Fa

27、ngmeyer, director of the student organization office at the University of Wisconsin, conducted a survey in February of students involved in campus organizations. She said the desire for friendship was the most frequently cited reason for joining. At large universities like Fangmeyer s, which has mor

28、e than 40,000 students, the students first of all want to find a way to “belong in their own comer of campus“. Katie Rowley, a Wisconsin senior, confirms the survey s findings. “I wanted to make the campus feel smaller by joining an organization where I could not only get involved on campus but also

29、 find a group of friends. “ All of this talk of friendship, however, does not mean that students aren t thinking about their resumes. “ I think that a lot of people do join to fatten up their resumes ,“ said Heitner. “ At the beginning of my college career, I joined a few of these organizations, hop

30、ing to get a start in my leadership roles. “ But without passion student leaders can have a difficult time trying to weather the storms(经受风雨 )that will come. For example, in April, several student organizations at Wisconsin teamed up for an event designed to educate students about homelessness and p

31、overty. Student leaders had to face the problem of solving disagreements, moving the event because of rainy weather, and dealing with the university s complicated bureaucracy(官僚机构 ). “ Outside-the-classroom learning really makes a big difference,“ Fangmeyer said. 31 An outside-the-classroom activity

32、 like raising a fund of $ 300,000 is risky because most student leaders are_. （ A） busy （ B） inexperienced （ C） not rich （ D） not interested 32 American students join campus organizations mostly for_. （ A） making a difference （ B） gaining experience （ C） developing friendship （ D） improving their re

33、sumes 33 Who is Katie Rowley? （ A） A senior professor. （ B） A senior student. （ C） A senior official. （ D） A senior director. 34 What do student leaders need to carry an activity through to a successful end? （ A） Passion. （ B） Money. （ C） Power. （ D） Fame. 35 The phrase “fatten up“ in Paragraph 5 me

34、ans_. （ A） invent （ B） rewrite （ C） polish （ D） complete 35 Can You Hear This? When something creates a sound wave in a room or an auditorium(礼堂 ), listeners hear the sound wave directly from the source. They also hear the reflections as the sound bounces off the walls, floor, and ceiling. These are

35、 called the reflected wave or reverberant(反射的 )sound, which can be heard even after the sound is no longer coming from the source. The reverberation time of an auditorium is determined by the volume or interior size of the auditorium. It is also determined by how well or how poorly the walls, ceilin

36、g, floor, and contents of the room(including the people)absorb sound. There is no ideal reverberation time, because each use of an auditorium calls for different reverberation. Speech needs to be understood clearly; therefore rooms used for talking must have a short reverberation time. The full-soun

37、d performance of music such as Wagner operas or Mahler symphonies should have a long reverberation time. The light, rapid musical passages of Bach or Mozart need a reverberation time somewhere between. Acoustic problems often are caused by poor auditorium design. Smooth, curved(弯曲的 )reflecting surfa

38、ces create large reflections. Parallel(平行的 )walls reflect sound back and forth, creating a rapid, repetitive pulsing(有节奏的跳动 )effect. Large pillars(柱 )and comers can cause acoustic shadows as the sound waves try to pass around the object. Some of these problems can be solved by using absorbers and re

39、flectors to change the reverberation time of a room. For example, hanging large reflections, called clouds, over the performers will allow some sound frequencies to reflect and others to pass to achieve a pleasing mixture of sound. 36 This passage is mainly about_. （ A） sound waves and their effects

40、 （ B） the types of music orchestras play （ C） walls of an auditorium （ D） the design of an auditorium 37 Wagner operas and Mahler symphonies sound with full-sound effect have_. （ A） a short reverberation time （ B） a long reverberation time （ C） an intermediate reverberation time （ D） no reverberatio

41、n time 38 This passage suggests that a good auditorium should_. （ A） achieve a pleasing mixture of sound （ B） get rid of all reflections （ C） not have absorbers （ D） have smooth surfaces 39 Large pillars and corners may_. （ A） make sound rich and full （ B） be cures to sound problems （ C） be sources

42、of sound problems （ D） function as effectively as clouds 40 The word “acoustic“ in the last paragraph has something to do with_. （ A） performance （ B） audience （ C） sound （ D） weather 40 Covering the Cost All by Himself University life is in no way cheap in Canada. It costs Peter Kemp, a computer sc

43、ience major at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Vancouver, C$18 ,000 a year. Amazingly, the 21-year-old is covering the cost by himself. For the past three years, Kemp has done a range of part-time jobs to pay for his tuition(学费 )and living expenses. Last semester alone, he worked fiv

44、e jobs for 32 40 hours a week. Life is bus-y, but Kemp enjoys it. “ Doing part-time jobs gives me economic independence,“ said Kemp, who will begin his senior year this fall. “ Having economic independence gives me the ability to take control of my life and make my own decisions,“said Kemp. “It has

45、also helped me understand the value of money. “ Among Kemp s five jobs last semester,two were on campus. For one,he helped maintain the universitys computer labs. For the other, he worked at the IT service desk to help students and teachers solve their computer problems. He also worked for a small c

46、ompany that develops GPS systems. This job paid him well at C $ 27 an hours. “These jobs made me put what I ve learned in university to practical use,“ Kemp said. “I accomplished creative and imaginative tasks by applying my abilities to the work. “ Good time management skills help Kemp balance work

47、 and study. He s a top student in his class. And he will be the student association chairman for his department beginning next semester. It s a position that he has desired for a long time. “It will give me the opportunity to be the voice for my fellow students and make a difference,“ says Kemp. “I

48、believe one of the key secrets to juggling(应付 )everything is to avoid putting off tasks. This can leave you stressed and reduce the quality of your work and health,“ he said. “ I often make a list of the things I need to do each day and rank them by their importance. The list helps me decide what ta

49、sk I should do first and when I should complete it. Remember to ask for help when you think you can t finish something on time, or can t finish it by yourself. “ 41 Who is Peter Kemp? （ A） A computer student. （ B） An American student. （ C） A French student. （ D） A British student. 42 How did he manage to pay his tuition and living expenses? （ A） He did a variety of part-time jobs. （ B） He won a few scholarships. （ C） He bo
