The bristlecone pine is the longest-living thing on the earth.These trees,with their strangely-shaped,wind-beaten limbs(枝干),can live up to 5 000 years.But experts worry that a warming climate in some areas may threaten its future.

Researchers say warmer weather is permitting a similar kind of tree,the limber pine,to take over good growing places from the ancient bristlecone.They say the tree is being crowded out of mountainous areas where it grows.

“The bristlecone pine is the oldest individually growing organism,”researchers say.They grow in high mountain forests in eastern California,Nevada and Utah.In those mountains,the trees face high winds and extreme temperatures,which leave them with twisted limbs and shapes.“Even in such tough conditions,”Brian Smithers,a researcher at the University of California,said,“the limber pine is taking all the good spots.”

The limber pine is the bristlecone’s distant relative and competitor.It can also live a long time—up to 2 000 years.And it is usually found at lower altitudes,where temperatures are warmer.However,according to a three-year study which centered on trees that have started growing in the last 50 years in California’s White Mountains,most of the trees growing at higher altitudes were limber pines.

Scientists compared the competing species to two o1d men in a very slow race up a mountainside.This race between such slow-growing trees takes thousands of years.They say climate change is causing the competition.Smithers said the bristlecone pines are not in danger of disappearing.But he assumes they could be crowded out of some places where they have grown for thousands of years.

The researchers say the findings show how climate change can affect the two kinds of trees.The information,they say,can help scientists understand more complex forests.

24. What’s the function of Paragraph 1?

A. To introduce a topic.

B. To summarize the whole passage.

C. To describe the appearance of a tree.

D. To praise the hard work of the experts.

25. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. There will be older trees sent out of those mountains.

B. There will be more places covered with bristlecone pines.

C. There will be better limber pines replacing the ancient ones.

D. There will be fewer bristlecone pines growing in those areas.

26. According to the passage,the reason why limber pines can grow at higher altitudes is_________.

A. the high winds

B. the difficult conditions

C. the changing climate

D. the extreme temperatures

27. What is the researchers’ attitude towards the future of the bristlecone pine?

A. Positive.

B. Concerned.

C. Enthusiastic.

D. Indifferent.

C

I start every summer with the best of intentions: to attack one big book from the past, a classic that I was supposed to have read when young and ambitious. Often the pairings of books and settings have been purely accidental: “Moby Dick” on a three-day cross-country train trip; “The Magic Mountain” in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors, no telephones or televisions in the rooms, and little to do beyond row on the salt pond. Attempting “The Man Without Qualities” on a return to Hawaii, my native state, however, was less fruitful: I made it through one and a quarter volumes (册), then decided that I’d got the point and went swimming instead.

But this summer I find myself at a loss. I’m not quite interested in Balzac, say, or “Tristram Shandy.” There’s always “War and Peace,” which I’ve covered some distance several times, only to get bogged down in the “War” part, set it aside for a while, and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again, having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank. How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite — once more into “The Waves” or “Justine,” which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong in serious literature.

And then there’s Stendhal’s “The Red and the Black,”which happens to be the name of my favorite cocktail (鸡尾酒) of the summer, created by Michael Cecconi at Savoy and Back Forty. It is easy to drink, and knocking back three or four seems like such a delightful idea. Cecconi’s theory: “I take whatever’s fresh at the greenmarket and turn it into liquid.” The result is a pure shot of afternoon in the park, making one feel cheerful and peaceful all at once, lying on uncut grass with eyes shut, sun beating through the lids...

28. What can we infer about the author from the first paragraph?

A. He shows talents for literature.

B. He admires a lot of great writers.

C. He has a cottage in New England.

D. He enjoys reading when traveling.

29. What do the underlined words “get bogged down” in paragraph 2 mean?

A. Be interrupted.

B. Make no progress.

C. Get confused.

D. Be carried away.

30. Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating?

A. He barely understands them.

B. He finishes them quickly.

C. He has read them many times before.

D. He should read something serious.

31. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. To Read or Not to Read

B. The Books of Summer

C. It’s Never Too Late to Read

D. My Summer Holidays

D

It is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United States or the Amazon rainforest. Without it we would not have grown into primates (灵长类动物) . Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat. Without competition, Columbus wouldn’t have dicovered America and Edison would never have invented the light bulb.

Friendship, like all relationships between two people, involves competition. It isn’t competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecological defintion --- the simultaneous (同时) demand by two or more organisms for limited environmental resources, such as nutrinents, living space, or light --- better explains it.

As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwin’s theory of evolution, overpopulation, and competition. There is an abundance of high school students and to distinguish them, ranking and categorizing (分类) take place. In high school, friendships learn to coexist with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstance, competition is too much of a burden for a friendship

to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admission is the final high school objective. Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a student’s fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve a similar recognition.

Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life. It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to schoolwork. A healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy (妒忌) can tear friendships apart. Yet, despite all this, without competition, we would be lost.

32. What does the ecological definition mainly explain?

A. How to win the competition.

B. What competition exactly is.

C. What the result of competition is.

D. How friends compete with each other.

33. According to the writer, what causes the high school students to compete?

A. They know the laws of nature well.

B. Friendship is a burden for them.

C. The number of them is too large.

D. They are divided into different groups.

34. Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition?

A. Friendship is always based on competition.

B. Competition is a result of lost friendship.

C. Competition is terribly harmful to friendships.

D. The degree of competition is vital to friendship.

35. What does the author think of “competition”?

A. Competition is certain to happen at school.

B. The result of competition are out of control.

C. Competition becomes fierces in high school.

D. Friendship is not as important as competition at school.

The Science of Risk-Seeking

Sometimes we decide that a little unncessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth tasking. 36 Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say if may have to do with how our brains work.

The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 37 As the quality of Risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.

So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 38 No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 39 To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.

40 For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.

As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.

A. Those are the risks you should jump to take.

B. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.

C. It all depends on your character.

D. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.

E. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.

F. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.

G. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.

III. Reading Comprehension Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. B Kettlebells do not hurt people. People do. A kettlebell will get your respect – the easy way or the hard way. Here is the easy way. 1. Get a medical clearance. Get clearance, especially from an orthopedist and a cardiologist. The latter is no joking matter, since kettlebell training can be extremely intense. 2. Always be aware of your surroundings. Find a training area with a non-slippery surface on which you are not afraid to drop a kettlebell. The area must be clear of objects you might trip over – including other kettlebells – or that you might hit with a kettlebell. There should be no people or animals in a radius where you could injure them. 3. Train barefoot or wear shoes with a flat, thin sole and room for the toes to spread. Training barefoot is superior for health and performance reasons. If you must wear shoes, wear Converse Chuck Taylors, Vibram Five Fingers, or similar shoes that have thin soles and do not pinch the toes together. You have sensory receptors on the bottoms of your feet that make you stronger and improve balance and coordination. Wearing traditional shoes diminishes the ability of these receptors to work properly, and therefore inhibits performance and can increase the risk of injury. Go native. 4. Never contest for space with a kettlebell. Do not try to save a rep that has gone wrong. Guide the kettlebell to fall harmlessly, and move out of the way if necessary. And remember, quick feet are happy feet. 5. Practice all safety measures at all times. Respect every kettlebell, even the lightest one. Always use perfect form picking up and setting down a kettlebell. The set is not over until the bell is safely parked.

What makes all of these especially unusual is that Ruggiero, 24, has only one leg. When he was a 19-year-old musical theater student at New Jersey’s Montclair State University, Ruggiero had a rare bone cancer in his right leg. Finally his leg would have to be amputated (截) below the knee. Such a setback could have easily ended the career of a less tough person,but Ruggiero,who has been dancing since he was five,now puts the experience into his performance. His show, “The One-Legged Song and Dance Man: Volume 3”,explains how he returned to dance just 18 months after the amputation. His dance now relies on the use of a peg leg(假肢) ,he explains. The secret to his surprising success, he says, was being a “stubborn”patient who refused to give up on his dance and performing studies, despite the advice of his doctor. “It was a real setback,but after it was all over,I said, ‘You know what? I need to pick up right where I left off and continue my career, ’”Ruggiero said. Ruggiero has come to view his peg leg as an instrument. “Tap dancers—they’re always calling themselves musicians, and their feet are their instrument, ” he said. Noting that many audience members will never have seen a one-legged dancer
