(estimated revenue rose to US $4.25 billion)After working for church & Tower, an underground utility construction firm for just two short

27、ices Dgood service in health23(8分)Preparing for the Next Pandemic(大流行病)Influenza pandemics have historically taken the world by surprise, giving health services little time to prepare for the abrupt increases in cases and deaths that characterize these events and make them so disruptive. Since late

28、2003, the world has moved closer to a pandemic than at any time since 1968, when the last of the previous centurys three pandemics occurred.While neither the timing nor the severity of the next pandemic can be predicted, evidence that the virus is now endemic in bird populations means that the prese

29、nt level of risk will not be easily diminished.The advance warning has brought an unheard-of opportunity to prepare for a pandemic and develop ways to mitigate its effects.More countries now have pandemic preparedness plans: around one fifth of the worlds countries have some form of a response plan,

30、 but these vary greatly in comprehensiveness and stage of completion.Access to antiviral drugs and, more importantly, to vaccines(疫苗) remains a challenging problem because of limited manufacturing capacity as well as costs.The risk that a pandemic virus will emerge depends on opportunities for human

31、 exposure and infections. These opportunities will persist as long as the H5NI virus continues to circulate in animals. Control of the disease in animals is the main way to reduce opportunities for human infection and thus reduce opportunities for a pandemic virus to emerge.While neither the timing

32、nor the severity of the next pandemic can be predicted, history shows that these events consistently bring an explosive increase in the number of illnesses and deaths sufficient to temporarily paralyse public services and economic productivity.1、From the first paragraph we know .AThere were three pa

33、ndemics in the world last century.BAt least three pandemics occurred to the world last century.CWe are not sure how many pandemics there were in the world last century.DWe are sure there were four pandemics in the world last century.2、What does the underlined word “mitigate” in the third paragraph p

35、e.DObjective.24(8分)Current Culture: Is Common Culture Alive?The digitizing and globalizing world is changing the working of culture. As some see it, cities and nations are losing their common culture and their general spirit: people can no longer count on those around them valuing any of the same mu

36、sic or films. Others argue that a common culture is not dying so much as changing forms: it is less and less attached to a particular area and ever more linked to global networks. The facts lead to the change that anyone can become a cultural producer today, that the culture is increasingly availabl

37、e everywhere you want it, and whenever you want it, not just in the two months after the movie or book came out. Cultural possibilities have multiplied as a result, but the change also means fewer cultural moments. It is easy to find the change in terms of loss of diversity of society. So what will

38、it mean if globalization turns us into one wide world culture?For the enthusiasts of these changes, culture is not about popular artists or books, but centers on platforms like Google and Wikipedia, where every variety of culture brings about the exchange of knowledge and ideas, and makes connection

39、s across boundaries. It is perhaps debatable whether two people who have participated in such websites, but in totally different corners of them, have had a cultural experience in common. In fact, these platforms become very successful with a large crowd of people, who build things together, share i

40、nformation, and forward articles back and forth. There are still more questions. What does it mean for the future of countries that culture now goes beyond the limits of the nation? Is there anything to defend and preserve in the passing cultural world, or is that merely to favor pen over printing p

41、ress, horse over automobile? Up to now a growing quantity of culture has been globally spreading and developing. More individuals (个人) than ever have the chances to be makers of culture, even if that means more to choose from and fewer standards to be reached in common. What it means is this strange

42、 feeling: that of being more connected than ever, with one-click access to so much of the cultural harvest around the world, and yet, of being starved for having similar interests and opinions with others, concerned only with ourselves.1、675In Paragraph 1 the author indicates _.Athe missing of commo

43、n cultureBthe cultural diversity among peopleCthe disadvantage in the digitizing societyDthe double standard of cultural evaluation2、677It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that _.Apeople feel satisfied with the current cultureBenthusiasts look for current culture from famous artistsCdisappearance of

44、 common culture is a problem to be solvedDcommon culture may exit into websites that connect the world3、679According to the author, the increase of cultural possibilities can be caused by _.Aagreement with common culture Bindividuals as cultural producersCpopular artists and books available Da reduc

45、tion in development of culture4、681What is the authors attitude towards current culture?AUninterested. BApproving. CUncertain. DCritical.25(10分) This year marks the 170th anniversary of Paul Gauguins birth. He lived for just 54 years but he packed his brief life with activity.The French painter spen

46、t his early childhood in Peru before returning to France. As an adult, he continued to travel a lot. Most famously, he spent much of the last decade of his life in Tahiti, an island in southern Pacific Ocean. Indeed, Gauguin is best known for his colorful paintings of Tahitians and their culture.The

47、 restlessness of this great painter has been normal among modern artists since the middle of the 19th century. Theyre never satisfied for long with a certain style or way of life. Once something becomes conventional, its turned down.The artistic culture that Gauguin developed from was that of Impres

48、sionism (印象派). Painters like Claude Monet had wanted to paint how they saw the world, not how their teachers taught them it should be seen. Gauguin, and similar artists like his friend Vincent van Gogh, moved even further away from “respectable” art than the Impressionists. For them, it was not simp

49、ly a matter of seeing the world differently, but feeling and thinking about it differently, too.Gauguin saw, felt and thought differently from most members of European society. He thought that European culture was too fancy and not spontaneous. This is why he turned to the traditions of other parts

50、of the world, like Africa, and, eventually, Tahiti. Artists like Gauguin used the word “primitive” for these cultures, but not as a negative term. For him, Europe, in becoming modem, industrial and scientific, seemed less natural than other parts of the world.In truth, Gauguins paintings may be unco

51、nventional but they are certainly not “primitive”. They are the work of a painter with great awareness of what he was doing. It was this awareness that made him such an important painter for those that came after, in the 20th century. When we look closely at the works of Gauguin we begin to understa

52、nd Pablo Picasso, and especially Henri Matisse, a little better.1、What can we infer about Gauguins life?AHe had an unhappy childhood.BHe lived most of his life in Peru.CHe enjoyed painting in Tahiti.DHe preferred a traditional life style.2、Whats the main purpose of Paragraph 4?ATo explain why Gaugui

53、ns works were popular.BTo point out where Gauguins inspiration came from.CTo show Gauguins different understanding of painting.DTo compare Gauguins painting style with Vincent van Goghs.3、Which of the following best explains “spontaneous” underlined in Paragraph 5?ANatural.BModern.CIndustrial.DScien

54、tific.4、The author mentions Picasso and Matisse in the last paragraph to show _.Atheir styles are different from GauguinsBgreat artists share many similaritiesCthey are as important as GauguinDGauguins influence on their works第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节)第一节(每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最

Lead author Dr Beatrice Golomb, from the University of California at San Diego, said: Our findings appear to add to a body of information suggesting that the composition of calories, not just the number of them, matters for determining their ultimate impac

Consumption of certain types of chocolate has been linked to some favourable changes in blood pressure, insulin(胰岛素)sensitivity and cholesterol
