12、 with Marin County. It was finally thrown open to public traffic in 1937. It cost $25.7 million in the construction. Till the year 1957, the Golden Gate Bridge, at a length of 2,737 meters, was the longest suspension bridge in the world.Brooklyn BridgeThe Brooklyn Bridge is located in Brooklyn. It i

13、s one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States, having been opened in the year 1883. The length of the bridge is 1,843 meters. The bridge has been featured in several Hollywood movies.George Washington BridgeAlso known as the Hudson River Bridge and the Columbus Bridge, the George Washi

14、ngton Bridge which connects Fort Lee to Manhattan came into use in 1931 after a construction period of almost 4 years. It is a two level suspension bridge that cost about $52 million to build.Mackinac BridgeThis is the third biggest suspension bridge in the world at a length of 8,038 meters. The arc

15、hitect of this bridge was Dr. David BSteinman, who directed the construction of the bridge which started in the year 1954 and opened to the public in 1958. People using this bridge are charged a certain amount of money.Navajo BridgeLocated in Arizona, this bridge crosses the Colorado River and is al

16、most 250 meters long. The construction of this bridge started in the year 1927, ending two years later, costing $390,000. In the 1990s, a second bridge was built which was opened to the public in 1994. The first bridge is now used only by pedestrians.1、What do we know about the Golden Gate Bridge?AI

Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the environment, and they

19、are tired of people who disagree with them. Those people, say skeptics, spread nothing but bad news about the environment. The “eco-guilt” brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews.Perhaps that explai

20、n why a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much publicity. That book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world” as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets some big businesses with special interests. Indeed, Mr. Lomborgs views are simi

21、lar to those of some Industry-funded organizations, which start huge activities though the media to confuse the public about issues like global warming.So it was strange to see Mr. Lomborgs book go largely unchallenged in the media though his beliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions. One na

22、tional newspaper in Canada ran a number of articles and reviews full of words of praise, even with the conclusion that “After Lomborg, the environmental movement will begin to die down.”Such one-sided views should have immediately been challenged. But only a different review appeared in Nature, a re

23、spected science magazine with specific readership. The review remarked that Mr. Lomborgs “preference for unexamined materials is incredible (不可信的)”。A critical (批判的) eye is valuable, and the media should present information in such a way that could allow people to make informed decisions. Unfortunate

24、ly, that is often inaccessible as blocked by the desire to be shocking or to defend some special interests. People might become half-blind before a world partially exhibited by the media. Thats a shame, because matters concerning the health of the planet are far too important to be treated lightly.1

25、、 According to the passage, which of the following may be regarded as “skeptics”?APeople who agree on the popularity of “eco-guilt”.BPeople who disbelieve the serious situation of our planet.CPeople who dislike the harmful effect of human activities.DPeople who spread comforting news to protect our

26、environment.2、Which of the following can be a reason for the popularity of Lomborgs books?ASome big businesses intend to protect their own interests. B The book challenges views about the fine state of the world.CThe author convinces people to seek comforting worldviews.DIndustryfunded media present

27、 confusing information.3、The author mentioned the review in Nature in order to_.Avoice a different opinionBfind fault with Lomborgs book Cchallenge the authority of the mediaDpoint out the value of scientific views.4、What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage?ATo encourage the skeptics

28、to have a critical eye.BTo warn the public of the danger of halfblindness with reviews.CTo blame the medias lack of responsibility in presenting information.DTo show the importance of presenting overall information by the media.23（8分） When Lina was awoken by the sound of thunder, she was alone on th

29、e island. The air was cool and bullfrogs croaked. It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadnt yet appeared. Lina rubbed her eyes and looked around.Hello? she called. Celia? Marie?There was no response.The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always

30、 called it Forgotten Island because no one but they seemed to remember its existence. It wasnt on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest rangers didnt know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side stream of the river, was a secret between the three friends

31、-her, Celia, and Marie.But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault.Come on, Lina, let Marie row the boat. Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a hopeless rower. Thats why Lina refused and rowed the boat to the island. The argument that

32、 followed the refusal took the usual form. Celia took Maries side, as she always did. Lina had exploded and yelled at them to just leave. So they got back in the boat and left.A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap. The storm was here. As the first cold

33、 raindrop slid down her neck, Linas mind returned to her current problem. She was stuck here by herself. She just hoped she didnt become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill（寒意）down her back.Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water. It was a boat, and inside it were Marie,

34、 Celia, and Maries dad, who was steering through the fast flowing waters. As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried expressions on their faces turned to relief.In her excitement Lina jumped into the river. Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the water was

35、moving. Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Maries dad and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie. They didnt seem to mind becoming wet.1、What can be inferred about the island？AIt is very near the ocean.BIt is a popular place for boating.CIt is surro

36、unded by thick forest.DIt has never been reached by others.2、Why did Lina get angry？AMarie would not help row the boat.BLina was left alone on the island.CMarie didnt know how to row the boat.DCelia supported Marie in the disagreement.3、What caused Lina to feel a chill?AHer shame about the unnecessa

37、ry argument.BThe first raindrops of the approaching storm.CThe idea that no one would come to save her.DThe drop in temperature as the sun went down.4、Who pulled Lina out of the water?AMaries father.BLina herself.CMarie.DCeliA24（8分）What do Leonardo da Vincii, Marie Curie, and Albert Einstein have in

38、 common? They were all left-handed, along with other famous people including Brad Pitt PrinceWilliam, and Barack Obama. In fact, an estimated 13 percent of the worldspopulation may be left-handed and still most people around the world are right-handed.What makes a person become right-handed rather t

39、han left-handed? As yet no onereally knows for sure. One simple idea suggests that people normally get right-handedness from their parents. Studies have found that two right-handed parents have only a 9.5 percent chance of having a left-handed child, whereas two left-handed parents have a 26 percent

40、 chance of having a left-handed child. Another common theory is that left-handed people suffer mild brain damage during birth, which makes them left-handed. However, if this theory were true, it would not explain why the percentage of left-banded people is so similar in every society, when birth con

41、ditions vary so much from society to society.Whatever the reasons behind it, peoples attitudes toward left-handedness have changed a lot over the years. Statistics show that although 13 percent of young people (10-20 years old) are left-handed, only 6 percent of the elderly are left-handed. Left-han

42、ded children used to be punished until they began using their right hand like other children, but today people who are left-handed are no longer looked down on nor are they considered abnormal. For most people today, either case is perfectly acceptable.1、What makes one right-handed?AThe environment.

43、BMild brain damage during birth.CThe reason is uncertain.DOther people.2、Why is the number of young people who are left-handed bigger than that of the elderly?ABecause the elderly are forced to become right-handed.BBecause left-handed people are considered abnormal.CBecause left-handedness can be cu

44、red.DBecause the young are easily damaged.3、What does the text mainly talk about?ALeft-handed people are looked down upon.BGeneral facts about left-handed people.CSome famous left-handed people.DThe reasons why people are left-handed.25（10分）Humans have been keeping animals as pets for tens of thousa

45、nds of years, but Dr. Jean-Loup Rault, an animal scientist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, believes new companions are coming: robot pets.“Technology is moving very fast,” Rault told ABC News, “The Tamagotchi in the early 1990s was really the first robotic pet, and now Sony and other bi

46、g companies have improved them a lot.”This may not sit well with pet lovers. After all, who would choose a plastic toy over a lovely puppy? But Rault argues that the robotic kind has a lot going for it: “You dont have to feed it, you dont have to walk it, it wont make a mess in your house, and you c

47、an go on a holiday without feeling guilty.” The technology also benefits those who are allergic to pets, short on space, or fearful of real animals.Its not clear whether robot pets can replace real ones. But studies do suggest that we can bond with these smart machines. People give their cars names

48、and kids give their toy animals life stories. Its the same with robots. When Sony stopped its repair service for its robot dog Aibo in March 2014, owners in Japan held funerals.As an animal welfare researcher, Rault is concerned about how robotic pets could affect our attitudes towards live animals.

49、 “If we become used to a robotic companion that doesnt need food, water or exercises, perhaps it will change how humans care about other living beings,” he said.So are dogs and cats a thing of the past, as Rault predicts? For those who grew up with living and breathing pets, the mechanical kind migh

50、t not do. But for our next generation who are in constant touch with smart technology, a future in which lovely pets neednt have a heartbeat might not be a far-fetched dream.1、What does the underlined phrase “sit well with” means?Abe refused by Bbe beneficial toCmake a difference to Dreceive support
