11、oos as people in Australia, and many Australians consider them pests(有害动物). Landholding farmers say that the countrys estimated 50 million kangaroos damage their crops and compete with livestock for scarce resources. Australias insurance industry says that kangaroos are involved in more than 80 perc

12、ent of the 20,000-plus vehicle-animal collisions reported each year. In the countrys underpopulated region, the common belief is that kangaroo numbers have swollen to “plague proportions.”In the absence of traditional hunters, the thinking goes, killing kangaroos is critical to balancing the ecology

13、 and boosting the rural economy. A government-sanctioned(政府认可的) industry, based on the commercial harvest of kangaroo meat and hides, exported $29 million in products in 2017 and supports about 4,000 jobs. Today meat, hides, and leather from kangaroos have been exported to 56 countries. Global brand

14、s such as Nike, Puma, and Adidas buy strong, supple “k-leather” to make athletic gear. And kangaroo meat is finding its way into more and more grocery stores.Advocates point out that low-fat, high-protein kangaroo meat comes from an animal more environmentally friendly than greenhouse gas-emitting s

15、heep and cattle. John Kelly, former executive director of the Kangaroo Industry Association of Australia, says, “Harvesting our food and fibers from animals adapted to Australias fragile rangelands is extremely wise and sustainable. Many ecologists will tell you that there is no more humane way of p

16、roducing red meat.”Opponents(反对者) of the industry call the killing inhumane, unsustainable, and unnecessary. Population estimates are highly debatable, they say, but “plague proportions” are biologically implausible. Little kangaroos grow slowly, and many die, so kangaroo populations can expand by o

17、nly 10 to 15 percent a year, and then only under the best of circumstances. Dwayne Bannon-Harrison, a member of the Yuin people of New South Wales, says the idea that kangaroos are destroying the country is laughable. “Theyve been walking this land a lot longer than people have,” he says. “How could

18、 something thats been here for thousands of years be destroying the country? I dont understand the logic in that.”Can Australians conflicting attitudes toward kangaroos be reconciled(和解)? George Wilson says that if kangaroos were privately owned, then graziers(放牧人)working independently or through wi

19、ldlife conservancieswould protect the animals, treating them as possessions. They could feed them, lease them, breed them and charge hunter a fee for access. “If you want to conserve something,” Wilson says, “you have to give it a value. Animals that are considered pests dont have value.”Privatizati

20、on could also help reduce grazing pressures. If kangaroos were more valuable than cattle or sheep, farmers would keep less live-stock, which could be good for the environment. Under this scheme, landholders would work with the kangaroo industry on branding, marketing and quality control. The governm

21、ents role would be oversight and regulation.1、What can be learnt from the first three paragraphs?AKangaroo meat is healthier than other red meat.BGlobal brands make small profits on kangaroos.CKangaroos are more friendly to the environment.DOverpopulated kangaroos have become a financial burden.2、Wh

22、at does the underlined word “implausible” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?AUnreasonable.BImmeasurable.CUnquestionable.DUnchangeable.3、Which of the following might be the benefit of privatization?AThe popularity of kangaroo hunting.BThe reduction in the number of kangaroos.CThe establishment of more con

23、servation areas.DThe better management of the kangaroo industry.4、The passage is written to _.Aargue against the killing of kangaroosBstress the importance of protecting kangaroosCpresent different opinions on the kangaroo industryDprovide a solution to the problem caused by kangaroos22（8分） It is wi

24、th mixed emotions that I went to the young criminal center every few months to give vaccinations (接种疫苗). On the one hand, I feel lucky to be able to provide a service that may have a positive health effect on the residents. But, on the other hand, I feel a sense of sadness and disappointment as I se

25、e the prisoners being escorted (押送) by guards to the nursing unit.My last visit was very memorable. For some reason, there was a lightness in the air. More than ever before, I felt a lightness as I spoke with each person. We shared stories and smiles and fears. Even the toughest prisoners seemed to

26、be surrounded by light. As a mother, I saw them as not only youth, being punished for crimes, but also as children who have the potential to change for the better. Most of them wanted to talk longer! They were reaching out to us! It felt right.There was one more prisoner. He was limited to a differe

27、nt unit in a lonely cell. We were asked if we were okay going down there. We said that we were. Two guards escorted us down and when we entered the area, instant tears welled up in my eyes. The area was sad. These guards didnt smile. We entered the cell and had to make do with what was there.We were

28、 done but I didnt want to leave. I gave the 17 year old a gentle touch and smile as I explained what to do regarding the side effects. At first, there was no response, so I just looked down at his bare feet and then to my supplies. I thought that I had better pack up. Suddenly, he looked up at me an

29、d smiled before he said “Thanks” and then he gave me a thumbs-up. I smiled back and said, “Youre welcome. Take care of yourself.”It was wonderful to receive a kind response from someone who was in such a harsh place. As we walked back to the main entrance, we didnt speak. Where there can be a smile,

30、 there is hope. Sometimes smiles can be very powerful.1、What can we know about the young in the young criminal center?AThey received regular medical service.BThey were treated unfairly.CThey stayed in bad conditions.DThey were forced to take treatment.2、What was special about the center the last tim

33、 things we literally could not have seen before the invention of the frozen image. It has greatly expanded our notion of what is beautiful, what is aesthetically(审美上) pleasing. Items formerly considered trivial, and not worth an artists paint, have been revealed and honored by the photograph: things

34、 as ordinary as a fence post, a chair, a vegetable. And as technology has developed, photographers have explored completely new points of view: those of the microscope, the eagle, the cosmos.What is it that delights the human eye and allows us to claim that a photograph is beautiful? Photography dep

35、ends on the trinity of light, composition, and moment. Light literally makes the recording of an image possible, but in the right hands, light in a photograph can make the image soar. The same is true with composition. What the photographer chooses to keep in or out of the frame is all that we will

36、ever see - but that combination is vital. And the moment that the shutter is pressed, when an instant is frozen in time, provides the whole image with meaning. When the three - light, composition, and moment - are in balance, there is visual magic.Light, composition, and moment come together in a ph

37、otograph to bring us the ultimate reality: a view of the world unknown prior to the invention of the camera. Before photography, the basic artistic rules of painting were rarely broken. Images were made to please, not to capture reality. But as photography evolved, painterly rules were often reacted

38、 in the pursuit of fresh vision. Photographers became interested in the real world, good and bad, and it was the accidental detail that was celebrated. Photography invited the world to see with new eyes - to see photographically - and all of the arts have drawn new inspiration from this change.With

39、these basic aesthetic tools, photographers have evolved from scientists longing to “fix” an image any image to artistic revolutionaries. Photographs have created a new way of seeing, changed our ideas of beauty and, most importantly, made art more democratic. They have given us visual proof that the

40、 world is grander than we imagined, and that there is beauty, often overlooked,in nearly everything.1、Before the invention of photography, which of the following was least likely to appear in an artistic work?AA great person.BA lovely insect.CA grand building.DA beautiful landscape.2、What is the fun

41、ction of paragraph 2?ATo argue that photographic beauty is subjective.BTo explain the evolution of the concept of beauty.CTo describe the elements that make a successful photo.DTo illustrate different types of photographic techniques.3、How has photography affected other art forms?AIt has reduced the

42、ir popularity.BIt has forced them to change their rules.CIt has changed their methods of composition.DIt has provided them with new points of view.4、What does the author mean by saying photography has “made art more democratic ?AIt has expanded the concept of artistic beauty.BIt has challenged the s

43、tatus of traditional art forms.CIt has enabled the development of new artistic tools.DIt has allowed more people to take part in creative activities.24（8分）Persuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with you. According to the ancient Greeks，there are three basic tools of persuasion：ethos，pa

44、thos，and logos.Ethos is a speakers way of convincing the audience that she is trustworthy，honest and reliable. One common way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education she has in the field. After all，youre more likely to listen to advice about how to take care of

45、your teeth from a dentist than a fireman. A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience that she is a good person. If an audience cannot trust you，you will not be able to persuade them.Pathos is a speakers way of connecting with an audiences emotions. For example，a politician who is try

46、ing to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear，thus making them support him. Similarly，an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats，to make the viewers

47、 feel pity. If the audience feels bad for the animals，they will be more likely to donate money.Logos is the use of facts，statistics，or other evidence to support your argument. An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims. Presenting this evidence

48、is much more persuasive than simply sayingbelieve me.Although ethos，pathos，and logos all have their strengths，they are often most effective when used together. Indeed，most speakers use a combination of ethos，pathos，and logos to persuade their audiences. So，the next time you listen to a speech，watch

49、a commercial，or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money，be on the lookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.1、Why does the author say persuasion is an art？ _AThey both entertain the audience.BThey both require great skills to achieve.CThey both demand full attention f

50、rom the audience.DThey were both common topics of ancient Greek writers.2、How is a speaker able to show her ethos to the audience？ _ABy expressing her sympathy with the audience.BBy telling the audience about her personal preference.CBy using beautiful language to make her statements attractive.DBy

51、showing her knowledge and experience relating to the topic.3、What can we learn about the three aspects of persuasion？ _AEthos is the most important aspect of persuasion.BEach aspect has a different effect on the audience.CHonesty is the key to making your arguments believable.DPolitical leaders most

52、ly use pathos to persuade their audience.4、An advertisement for washing powder which claims that “scientific tests show that our powder kills 95% of all bacteria”is mainly using _ .Aethos BpathosClogos Da combination of all three25（10分）How much weight a baby gains during its first month could determ

53、ine its IQ, as a new research suggests. The study found that children who gain more weight, and whose heads grow quickly during the first month of life, tend to have a higher IQ when they start school.Researchers at the University of Adelaide, in Australia studied 13,800 children who were born at fu

54、ll-term. They found that those who put on 40% of their birth weight in the first four weeks had an IQ 1.5 points higher than those who only put on 15% of their birth weight. Those who experienced the biggest growth in head circumference (头围) also had the highest IQs by the age of six.“Head circumfer

55、ence is an indicator of brain volume, so a greater increase in head circumference in a newly-born baby suggests more rapid brain growth,” says the led author of the study, Dr. Lisa Smithers.She added, “Overall, newly-born children who grew faster in the first four weeks had higher IQ scores later in

56、 life. Those children who gained the most weight scored especially high on verbal (言语) IQ at age 6. This may be because the neural (神经的) structures for verbal IQ develop earlier in life, which means the rapid weight gain during the first month could be having a direct cognitive benefit for the child

57、ren.”Previous studies have shown the association between early postnatal (产后的) diet and IQ, but this is the first study of its kind to focus on the IQ benefits of rapid weight gain in the first month of life. Dr. Smithers says the study further highlights the need for successful feeding of newly-bor

58、n babies. “We know that many mothers have difficulty establishing breastfeeding in the first week of their babies life,” Dr. Smithers said.“The findings of our study suggest that if babies are having feeding problems, there needs to be early intervention (干预) in the management of that feeding.”1、The

59、 study mainly shows that _Ahead circumference is certainly connected to IQ.Bbabies heads grow quickly during the first month.Cfull-term babies tend to be cleverer than premature babies. (早产儿)Dthe more weight newly-born babies gain, the higher IQ they are likely to have.2、How did the researchers get

60、their conclusion from the study?ABy asking questions.BBy making comparison.CBy having a discussion.DBy referring to documents.3、According to Dr. Lisa Smithers, we can learn that _Aa kids verbal IQ scores reach its highest at age six.Bthis study helps parents find feeding problems.Cquick weight gain
