14、gration to do so，suggests a Princeton research team.The scientists have shown that migrating adult sparrows can find their way to their winter nesting grounds even after being thrown off course by thousands of miles.The team first brought 30 sparrows to Princeton from northern Washington State，where
15、 the birds had been in the process of migrating southward from their summer breeding grounds in Alaska.Half the birds were juveniles (少年) of about three months in age that had never migrated before，while the other half were adults that had made the round trip to their wintering site in the southwest
16、ern United States at least once.After the birds were released，they attempted to resume their migration，but both age groups grew disoriented quickly.“All the birds scattered at first，” Wikelski said.“It was clear that they were turned around for a couple of days.But while the adults eventually realiz
17、ed they had to head southwest，the younger birds resumed flying straight southward as though they were still in Washington.”“The adults，” said team member Richard Holland，“recovered their bearings because they possess something the younger birds do not，which is an internal map.”“These birds need two
18、things to know where they are and migrate effectively：amapand acompass，” said Holland，a postdoctoral research associate in Wikelskis lab.“What weve found is that juveniles use their compass，but the adults also use their map.Holland said，“The birds do not lose the compass as they age，but somehow deve
19、lop the map，eventually applying both tools to keep on track during migratory flights.Scientists already have determined that the compass is based on the sun or the magnetic field，but where the map comes from remains a mysteryone that the team will be exploring in coming years.”36Where did the 30 spa
20、rrows spend their summer?AIn Princeton.BIn Washington.CIn Alaska.DIn the southwestern United States.37When the birds were first released，_.Athe adults found the right direction quicklyBboth groups remained lost in a few daysCboth groups flew in the same directionDboth groups joined together in their
21、 flight38We can know from the passage that the juveniles of sparrows_.Awill follow the adults in their flightsBwill find their destination eventuallyCwill lose the compass as they ageDstill lack an internal map39Scientists are still not sure_.Awhat guides sparrows in their migratory flightsBwhat a “
22、compass” is based onCwhat a “map” is based onDin what way magnetic field can help sparrows in their flight40We can conclude from the last paragraph that_.Asparrows need both a “map ”and a “compass”in migratory flightsBonly the adults need a “map” to guide them in migratory flightsCthe map is more im
23、portant than a compassDthe adult sparrows can rely on a “map” or a “compass”BTodays career assumptions are that you can get a lot of development，challenge and job satisfaction and not necessarily be in a management role.“I hated all the meeting，” says a 10year awardwinning manager，“and I found the m
24、ore you did for people who worked for you，the more they expected.”Managing others is always a tough task，but in the past that stress was balanced by hopes for career mobility and financial rewards.Along with a sizable pay raise，people chosen as managers would begin a nearly automatic climb up the ca
25、reer ladder to lucrative executive private benefits：company cars，club memberships，plus the key to the executive washroom.But in todays global，more competitive showground，a manager sits in an insecure chair.Restructuring has removed layer after layer of management as companies came to view their orga
26、nizations as collections of talents rather than hierarchies (等级)There are far fewer steps for managers to climb.Also，managerial jobs demand more hours and headaches than ever before but offer slim，if any，financial paybacks and perks.Now managers must manage many people who are spread over different
27、locations，even over different continents.They must manage across functions with say，design，finance and marketing.In an age of entrepreneurship，when the most praised people in business are those launching something new，management seems like an invisible，thankless role.Employers are looking for people
28、 who can do things，not for people who make other people do things.In addition，the Dilbert factor is at work.With Dilberts popular cartoon character as well as many television situation comedies routinely describing managers as fools or enemies，they just dont get much respect any more.Moreover，it may
29、 not pay to be a manager at least not the way it once did.Ms Chmielewski says，“The emotional rewards can be great，and there were times I enjoyed management.But a 10to11hour day and one weekend day a month is the norm.”With more people cautious of joining management，are corporations being hurt or wor
30、rying about developing future leaders？Not many are.While employers have dismissed a lot of managers，they believe many more candidates linger on at many companies.“Another reason companies arent short of managers，” argues Robert Kelly，a business professor，“is that so many workers today are selfmanage
31、d，either individually or via teams，you dont need a manager.”41By writing the passage，the writer seems to _.Aexplain reasons of firing managers Badvise people not to become managersCexpress dissatisfaction of some managersDencourage managers to be more competitive42Compared with the past，the managing
32、 job today is more_.Ademanding Brewarding Cquestionable Dacceptable43The author mentions what Ms Chmielewski says to reflect that_.Athe managerslow working efficiency makes them less paidBthe gain of being a manager is not as satisfactory as beforeCshe enjoys great emotional rewards of being a manag
33、erDshe misses the past enjoyment of being a manager44What can we learn from the passage?AManagers have more chances to be promoted now.BManagers were not satisfied with the way they were treated.CIt is unnecessary for a qualified manager to manage a variety of fields.DThe cartoon character by Dilber
34、t contributes to the bad image of managers.45What can we infer from the last paragraph?AMore and more people are eager to become managers.BThere will be more managers to be employed in the future.CEmployers think it easy for them to find managers in the future.DTeamwork makes it possible for compani
35、es not to hire more managers._第四部分写作(25分)目前地球面临水资源危机，请你根据以下提示写一篇120150词的短文。1人们以为淡水是取之不尽的(提示：雨水、河水、井水)；2实际上淡水非常紧缺(提示：人口增加，工业用水增加，污染)；3人类应该怎么办。Global Shortage of Fresh Water第一部分1C句意为：二鸟在林，不如一鸟在手；多得不如现得。表示“值得，有价值”有几个短语：be worth sth./doing sth.；be worthwhile to do sth.；be worthwhile doing sth.；be worthw
36、hile；be worthy of being done；be worthy to be done。2Blay aside 把搁置一旁，积蓄；lay off 解雇；lay down 放弃，辞(职)，制定；lay out 设计，花费。3Aaside from 除以外还有。except，but 除以外。beside 在旁边。4A考查情态动词的用法。第一个空表示不可能，第二个空表示肯定推测。5B考查动词短语辨析。set out 出发，动身；set up 建立，搭起；set off 出发，动身，引发；set down 让(某人)下车，写下。6Arequire 要求，需要；acquire 获得；ask
37、问，要求；inspire 鼓舞。英语中，need，want，require等表示“需要”时，后可接动名词主动式、不定式的被动式表示被动意义。7Dwish后的宾语从句多用虚拟语气。与现在事实相反从句用过去时，与过去事实相反从句用过去完成时。8Corder，insist，demand，suggest，urge，require等词后的宾语从句多用虚拟语气，其构成是should动词原形， should可以省略。9Dkeep pace with sb./sth.与保持同步，跟上，为固定搭配。10Bmild 温和的；conservative 保守的；frank 坦率的；unwilling 不愿意的。11B
38、考查冠词的用法。答句意为：如果你充分利用设备，那么产量就会有提高。make the most of意为“充分利用”，是固定短语；第二个空后的rise作名词，为抽象概念具体化的用法。12Aget stuck in 陷入之中；get lost 迷路；get involved in 被卷入；get promoted 被提升。根据句意选A。13Dturn up 偶然出现，开大；catch up 赶上，追上；go up 上升；take up 继续，占据。根据句意选D。14A考查交际用法。Im afraid I do表示委婉地拒绝对方，符合语境要求。No trouble at all.是感谢的应答语，意为
39、“不麻烦”。B、D两选项均自相矛盾。15Csuspect表示“怀疑”。doubt后宾语从句肯定句中用whether，否定句用that引导。predict 预言，预告；accuse 控告；谴责。16B由句意“我在园子里种了各种辣椒，Sam为我工作”，说明我俩都对辣椒感兴趣。B项最符合语境。17C后文提到比赛中Marcus和Ellen给我们选了两个最大的辣椒，因此他俩肯定是摘了几个大大的辣椒。18A从接下来一句看，他们想看看Sam是否能比“我”吃更多的辣椒，因此提议举行吃辣椒比赛。19D既然是吃辣椒比赛，只能选用动词“eat”。20B句意为：跟他们开了一会儿玩笑，我们答应举行比赛，但是他们也必须要
40、参加。从第二段两个孩子作了“妥协”，同意与两个大人比赛来看，应选B。21A从他们离开了房间来看，两个孩子没有接受我们的条件。22B他们第一次来没有答应我们的条件就走了，大约一小时后，带着一些新摘的辣椒又折回来了，想法也变了。根据“来去来”的情节，B项比A项准确。23A somehow不知怎么地；unfortunately不幸地；unexpectedly未曾预料地；anyhow无论怎样。故只有A项符合句意。24C从他们提出的条件来看，他们自己吃青辣椒，要“我”和Sam吃红辣椒，由此可以推理出他们认为红辣椒是最辣的。25D这里是Marcus和Ellen新提议中的条件：如果“我”和Sam吃红辣椒，他
41、们就吃青辣椒。本题要理解这是在比赛前Marcus和Ellen提出他们自己参加比赛的条件，这样就不易错选A项。26C“我”知道这样他们是要吃亏的，所以“我”给Sam使了个眼色，同意了他们的提议。从下文看，两个大人和两个孩子按照孩子确定的规则开始了“比赛”，故此处选C项最为准确。27B从接下来孩子们为“我”和Sam选辣椒以及他们自己选辣椒的情节可知，此处意为“为显示高尚的体育精神，我让孩子们为我和Sam选择辣椒。”28B两个孩子想在“比赛”中占优势，给两个大人选了两个最大的红辣椒，为他们自己选了一个小小的青辣椒。此处green同red相对，small同large相对，构成对比。29C”我”和Sam
42、种了很多辣椒，所以凭“我”的经验，“我”知道(比赛中)将会发生什么。take in接受，接待，吸收，理解；take on披上，呈现，具有；take effect见效，生效；take place发生。30D从前文判断，“我”要表现高尚的体育精神，而且知道孩子们一定会辣得难受；从后文判断，“我”把两个辣椒切成两半，去除了辣椒籽儿，可知此处意为“我告诉他们我会让他们吃起来更舒服、容易一些”。31A去掉辣椒籽，当然可以减少辣味。如果D，则成了去掉肉而吃籽，与文意不符，亦不合常理。32D两个大人每人吃一个最大的，两个孩子共吃一个小的，说明此处意为“这是速度的比赛，而不是数量的比赛”，即不论吃辣椒的多少。33B吃辣椒比赛是两个孩子提出来的，宁可自己参加也要来一次这样的比赛，又是按他们提出的条件来比赛的，他们以为占了大便宜，由此知此处意为“每个孩子手里拿着辣椒，急切地等着比赛的开始”。34A因为是速度的比赛，与时间有关，故合适的意思是“我看着表”。35C本段描写两个孩子的形象十分生动：两个孩子辣得十分狼狈，快速地挥动着两只手，朝嘴巴里扇风(因为辣得难受而做出的一种本能反应)。第三部分36C 37B 38D 39C 40A41B 42A43B44D45C书面表达略
