Then the plane took me and the others to Marambio base, in Antarctica from Rio Gallegos. During the fourhour trip in the_Hercules,_I was impressed by the ice around us.As I set foot in Antarctica for the first time in my life, a rush of glory ran through me. The scientists on board told me about the ozone layer (臭氧层) and the British explorer Ernest Shackelton, the second man to set foot in Antarctica. I will never forget what I was told about the ozone layer. I was told it was getting thinner and thinner because of pollution and emission gases, which eventually would change the weather balance in the whole planet. I couldnt help feeling worried about the future of humans after I heard that.In Esperanza base there are elementary schools for kids. In Jubany base I saw igloos (拱形圆顶小屋) and it was interesting to learn that only scientists lived there. I was allowed to get near the Antarctic animals. The penguins are my favorite because they are cute and I like the way they stick out their heads in curiosity, the way they walk and how they survive in harsh temperatures. I also saw elephant seals, which from the distance looked like rocks. I was also amazed at watching the amazing humpback whales (座头鲸) for the first time in my life.After my nineday trip, I boarded the Hercules to get back. I felt as if I had been on this trip forever because I had lost track of time and space. I also realized that this had been a magical trip.21What does the underlined part “the Hercules” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?AA ship.BA plane.CA base. DA city.解析：选B词义猜测题。根据第二段的“Then the plane took me and the others to Marambio base”以及“I was impressed by the ice around us”可推断，画线部分是作者他们乘坐的飞机。22What the scientists told the author about the ozone layer was _.Ainteresting BpositiveCconcerning Duseless解析：选C推理判断题。根据第三段的“I couldnt help feeling worried about the future of humans after I heard that.”可知，作者觉得这些信息很令人担忧。23What did the author do after he/she set foot in Antarctica?AHe/She lived in an igloo.BHe/She observed some penguins.CHe/She saw some rocks.DHe/She played with an elephant seal.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第四段的“I was allowed to get near the Antarctic animals. The penguins are my favorite”可知，作者在那里观察了一些企鹅。24The author most probably considered his/her trip to be _.Adisappointing BrelaxingCboring Damazing解析：选D推理判断题。根据末段的“I also realized that this had been a magical trip.”可知，作者认为这次旅行非常令人惊异。BThis afternoon, when my cousin Lisa read on a site that scientists are trying to clone the woolly mammoth (猛犸象), she became very excited. It seemed that she couldnt wait to see a living woolly mammoth. I dont think my cousin is alone. Many people, especially young kids, look forward to seeing a living animal that lived on the earth over 10,000 years ago. But I think quite differently.Bringing back the woolly mammoth through cloning is unfair to other animals. Dolly, the famous cloned sheep, was the only successful one in 237 eggs. Three lambs were created, but only one survived. Dolly suffered from severe arthritis (关节炎) and lung disease because of genetic mutations (基因突变). She had to be put to death at the young age of 6. If thats what it takes to produce a sheep, how many elephants would have to suffer and die in hopes of producing a mammoth? And how many failed mammoth babies would there be?Why do we waste valuable time and money bringing back extinct animals when we need to save the ones that are still with us but are at high risk of dying out? For example, Asian and African elephants will be lost by 2020. They are those that truly need our attention.We havent even managed to return endangered animals at zoos to existing natural habitats in the wild. Keeping animals at zoos has had a little positive impact on the status of most endangered species. Of the many endangered and atrisk animals kept at zoos, only a few species have been successfully reintroduced into the natural habitat. When the woolly mammoth is brought back, it would have to be kept at zoos, too. I dont think keeping animals at zoos means conservation.If the woolly mammoth is brought back, peoples attitude towards endangered species would change. They might stop saving such species as they think they can be brought back anyway. This is really risky.25By mentioning Dolly, the author wants to show that_.Athere has been a successful cloning storyBcloned animals usually dont live very longCthe woolly mammoth is a threat to other speciesDmany animals have to suffer to create a cloned animal解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段的“unfair to other animals”以及“how many elephants . mammoth babies would there be？”可知作者是想表明很多动物会因克隆而遭受痛苦。26What does the author mainly want to show in Paragraph 3?ACloning extinct animals will cost a lot.BSome elephant species will die out soon.CPeople dont care about endangered species.DProtecting endangered animals is more important.解析：选D写作意图题。根据第三段的“Why do we waste . risk of dying out？”可知作者是想表明保护那些现存但濒临灭绝的动物比克隆已经灭绝上万年的猛犸象更为重要。27According to the author, if the woolly mammoth is brought back, _.Ait will have a new familyBit cannot live in the wildCit will live well in the zooDit will stay in a natural habitat解析：选B推理判断题。根据第四段的“When the woolly mammoth . means conservation.”可知作者认为猛犸象被克隆出来后会被关在动物园里，但这对动物来说不是一种保护。结合所给选项，B项正确。28What is the text mainly about?AWhy cloned animals are disappointing.BWhy it is wrong for researchers to clone animals.CWhy the woolly mammoth shouldnt be brought back.DWhy researchers want to bring the woolly mammoth back.解析：选C主旨大意题。根据文章内容，可知作者主要讲述了他反对克隆猛犸象的理由。CDear Sir/Madam，It worried me a lot when I heard of the plan to cut down St Johns Wood to make a car park for shoppers. Although I agree that the town is short of car parks, this idea would be improper.In the first place, the wood is an area of natural beauty. There are many ancient trees of an unusual kind. I often go there for a picnic or just to relax at weekends. The wood is, without doubt, a natural home for birds, animals and insects. If the trees were cut down, many species would be lost. Furthermore, the wood is right in the centre of a heavily polluted part of town. The trees help to make the air cleaner. The council (地方议会) says they are worried about global warming, yet they wish to cut down trees which help reduce the buildup of gases that lead to global warming because they feed on carbon dioxide. Besides, that area also suffers from high noise levels from passing trucks and the railway line. The trees help reduce the noise levels and do a lot of good to the whole environment.In my opinion, cutting down the wood would be stupid and pointless. A car park may well attract shoppers to the town and increase the shopkeepers trade. However, a beautiful part of our town would be destroyed. I would be very interested in hearing what your other readers think.Yours faithfully，Roland Chang语篇解读：本文是应用文。作者希望通过这封信能够让当地政府保留圣约翰林场而非将其改建为停车场。29What has made Roland Chang feel worried?AThat the town is short of car parks.BThat shoppers park their cars badly.CThat there are few parks in the town.DThat a wood in the town might disappear.解析：选D细节理解题。由第一段中的“It worried me a lot . to cut down St Johns Wood to make a car park”可知，把圣约翰林场改建为停车场的计划让作者十分担心，因为这一计划会让圣约翰林场从此消失，故选D项。30In Paragraph 2, Roland Chang mainly talks about _.Athe importance of the woodBthe history of the townCthe species in the woodDglobal warming解析：选A段落大意题。由该段中的“There are many ancient . birds, animals and insects.”和“The trees help to make the air cleaner.”以及“The trees help reduce the noise levels”等信息可知，作者主要谈论了圣约翰林场对于这个城镇的重要性，故选A项。31Roland Chang wrote the letter mainly to _.Aintroduce a parkBmake a suggestionCexpress thankfulnessDsend his congratulations解析：选B写作意图题。总览全文可知，作者希望当地政府能够保留圣约翰林场，不要将其改建为停车场，并就此给出了自己的一些理由，故选B项。DWhen my friend put out the idea of homeschooling to her parents, the first reaction they gave was, “You are cutting the child off the world.” Did the child really get cut off or did the child socialize better?The moment we hear of homeschooling, we think the child will have no opportunities to interact with peers. However, in my friends opinion, we forget that when attending a regular school, the child is not into socializing all the while. The child is restricted to so many other activities. Studies take a major role in a childs life. The child hardly has the time to interact at school.The child might be meeting and studying along with many peers; however, how many kids interact with all the kids in a class? But in homeschooling system, as my friend mentioned, the kid has all the time and can plan his day accordingly. During the day the child studies just like other schoolgoing kids but with no burden of homework and project work, the child has so much free time in the evening as to effectively interact and play with peers. The quality time the child spends in education is really impressive.Homeschooled kids have the opportunity to socialize more often as they have a lot of time in their hands. They can also make socializing a regular habit. Just as my friend said, her child goes to a neighboring park almost every day and has a set of friends who go there daily. Other children get back home to finish off homework and project work whereas her child who is already through with studies gets the opportunity to spend time with family members.When I heard this, I really felt how lucky the child was. Definitely the child had a better opportunity to socialize when compared with my kid. However, I might not consider homeschooling for my kid, as I am so used to the conventional schooling system and feel regular schooling the safest bet.语篇解读：作者朋友的孩子在家接受教育。虽然这种教育方式有很多好处，但是作者仍然不会考虑让自己的孩子也接受这种教育，因为作者认为传统的教育方式比较安全。32The authors purpose in writing the passage is to _.Aexpress his views on homeschoolingBexplain what homeschooling isCshare his ways of teaching his childrenDpromote homeschooling解析：选A写作意图题。文章
