Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and

18、 D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage One30 You can tell a lot about people by looking at their hairand not just whether they brush, spray, or blow-dry.Scientists have found a way to use hair to f

19、igure out where a person is from and where that person has been. The finding could help solve crimes, among other useful applications.Water is central to the new technique. The liquid makes up more than half an adult humans body weight. Our bodies break water down into its partshydrogen and oxygen.B

20、ut not all water is the same. Hydrogen and oxygen atoms can vary in how much they weigh. Different forms of a single element are called isotopes(核素). And depending on where you live, tap water contains unique proportions of the heavier and lighter isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen.Might hair record al

21、l this information? Thats what scientists wondered. To find out, researchers collected hair from barbers in 65 cities in 18 states across the United States. The researchers assumed that the hair they collected came from people who lived in the area.Even though people drink a lot of bottled water the

22、se days, the scientists found that hair did reflect the concentrations of hydrogen and oxygen isotopes in local tap water. Thats probably because people usually cook their food in the local water. Whats more, most of the other liquids we drink contain large amounts of water that also come from sourc

23、es within their region.Scientists already knew how the composition of water varies throughout the country. By combining that information with the results, they predicted the composition of hair in people from different regions.The new technique cant point to exactly where a person is from, because s

24、imilar types of water appear in different regions that span(跨越)a broad area. But authorities can now use the information to analyze hair samples from criminals or crime victims and narrow their search for clues.Based on the finding, one research offers this advice:“If youre a criminal, shave.“31 Wat

25、er is different in that_.（A）hydrogen and oxygen atoms are broken down differently by people（B） different samples contain different proportions of isotopes of hydrogen（C） the weight of hydrogen and oxygen atoms varies from sample to sample（D）its proportion in an adult humans body weight is different

26、across people32 In order to find out if hair can tell where a person is from, scientists need hair samples_.（A）containing information on the composition of tap water（B） showing how much bottled water the person drinks daily（C） containing information on the kinds of food in the region（D）showing the v

27、ariety of liquids the person regularly drinks33 Why cant the technique tell where exactly a person is from?（A）Because many regions have similar types of water.（B） Because nowadays people drink too much bottled water.（C） Because scientists dont know exactly how water varies.（D）Because there are too m

28、any different regions in the nation.34 This new technique might help with_.（A）tracking down lost animals（B） the prevention of water pollution（C） identifying criminals without hair（D）the identification of crime victims35 Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?（A）Hair Detect

29、ives（B） Hair Signals Danger（C） Drink to Your Health（D）Water Tells EverythingPassage Two35 A group of scientists known for their skepticism about climate change has reanalysed two centuries worth of global temperature records. Their study largely confirms previous ones: it finds strong evidence that

30、Earth is getting hotter.“The valid issues raised by climate skeptics, when addressed fully and in detail, do not significantly change the answer,“ says lead author Richard Muller of the University of California, Berkeley. In a testimony(证据)to the US Congress earlier this year, Muller questioned whet

31、her global temperature records showed a significant warming during the 20th century. His project, the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature(BEST), has now pulled together global temperature data going back to 1800 from 15 sources, including datasets held by the World Meteorological Organization and US

32、and UK government agencies.BEST concludes that land temperatures have risen by 1C since the 1950s. This is largely in line with the three existing global temperature records: GISTEMP, maintained by NASA, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations GHCN and HadCRU, kept by the UK Met Offi

33、ce. The 1C of warming reflects warming above land masses only, so is not yet a truly global estimate.In a series of papers that have not yet been estimated but are available on the BEST website, the researchers examine how reliable the temperature data is. Contrary to earlier studies that are often

34、quoted by climate skeptics, the BEST researchers find that including data from weather stations in citieswhich are warmer than rural areasmakes little difference to the overall trend. “Urban warming doesnt unduly(过分地)bias estimates of recent global temperature change,“ they say.Blogger Anthony Watts

35、 of Watts Up With That has repeatedly claimed that temperature data is unreliable because weather stations are poorly placedfor instance, next to air-conditioning vents or other heat sources. However, BEST found no statistically significant difference in the trends seen at well-placed and poorly pla

36、ced stations.36 What do some skeptical scientists find?（A）The climate has changed.（B） The ocean temperatures have risen by 1C .（C） The Earth is getting hotter.（D）The reliable temperature data is available.37 Which data is included in Richard Mullers research project?（A）Data from the University of Ca

37、lifornia.（B） Global temperature data dated back to 1800 from 15 sources.（C） Global temperature data recorded by NASA.（D）Data from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.38 Why is BESTs estimate not truly global?（A）It only reflects the warming above land masses.（B） It uses the tempera

38、ture records kept by NASA.（C） It is held by the World Meteorological Organization.（D）It is not estimated by researchers.39 Which is the contrary finding of the BEST researchers?（A）Cities are warmer than rural areas and cities temperatures are more accurate.（B） Earlier studies are not reliable since

39、researchers didnt have advanced equipment.（C） Including data from weather stations in cities makes little difference to the overall trend.（D）Rural areas make different data in the study because rural areas are warmer than cities.40 According to Blogger Anthony Watts, why is temperature data unreliab

40、le?（A）The data is from air-conditioning vents.（B） Cities have little difference with rural areas.（C） Weather stations are all in cities.（D）The weather stations are improperly placed.Passage Three40 It would be difficult to have a society like ours without public goods such as defense, transportation

41、, and other services.A public good is one that a person can use without reducing the use of it for another person. One of the best examples of a public good is national defense. One person can benefit from our national defense without reducing another persons benefits. In fact, it is difficult to ke

42、ep any person in our society from enjoying the benefits of national defense.The market system does not work well in producing public goods. This is because a person who refuses to pay for a public good cannot be kept from using it. Suppose that the neighbors in a high crime area decide to hire a pol

43、ice force. Each neighbor, except Mrs. Smith, agrees to pay $ 100 a year for it. Mrs. Smith refuses to pay because she knows that if all the others pay the $ 100, the police will guard the area anyway. So Mrs. Smith can enjoy the services of the police force without paying $ 100.The market system has

44、 no way to deal with this type of problem. For this reason, we cannot ask each person to make a direct payment in the form of product price. Therefore, we collect money for public goods by using taxes41 According to the passage, public goods are_.（A）services enjoyed by all people（B） what we can buy

45、and sell in public（C） products that we make for national defense（D）taxes paid by the people involved42 The writer gives the example of national defense in paragraph 2 in order to show that_.（A）there will be no safety if there is no national defense（B） all the people should be responsible for nationa

46、l defense（C） a public good is a shared benefit for the whole society（D）some public goods are more important than others43 The person who does not pay for a public good_.（A）keeps himself from using its benefit（B） cannot enjoy its benefit at any time（C） fails to keep its benefit from being used（D）enjo

47、ys its benefit all the same44 In the third paragraph the author explains_.（A）what role the market system plays in producing public goods（B） how weak the market system is in producing public goods（C） why some people refuse to pay for public goods（D）what we can do to make use of the market system 45 F

48、rom the passage we learn that the purpose of collecting taxes is to_.（A）ensure the continuous supply of public goods（B） reduce the difference between the rich and the poor（C） get extra money to support public goods（D）remind people of their dutySection BDirections: In this section, there is a passage

49、 with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.45 They have long had to deal with
