Furthermore, during the summer there are few clouds in the sky to protect plants from the sun's ray. Another problem is the fact that there are frequently strong winds which drive small, sharp particles of sand into the plants, tearing and damaging them. The most difficult problem for all forms of plant life, however, is the fact that the entire annual rainfall occurs during a few days or weeks in spring.Grasses and flowers in desert survive from one year to the next by existing through the long, hot, dry season in the form of seeds. These seeds remain inactive unless the right amount of rain falls. If no rain falls, or if insufficient rain falls, they wait until the next year, or even still the next. Another factor that helps these plants to survive is the fact that their life cycles are short. By the time that the water from the spring rains disappears - just a few weeks after it falls - such plants no longer need any.The perennials have special features which enable them to survive as plants for several years. Thus, nearly all desert perennials have extensive root systems below ground and a small shoot system above ground. The large root network enables the plant to absorb as much water as possible in a short time. The small shoot system, on the other hand, considerably limits water loss by evaporation.Another feature of many desert perennials is that after the rainy season they lose their leaves in preparation for the long, dry season, just as trees in wetter climates lose theirs in preparation for the winter. This reduces their water loss by evaporation during the dry season. Then, in next rainy season, they come fully alive once more, and grow new branches, leaves and flowers, just as the grasses and flowers in desert do.16、Ordinary plants are unable to survive in the desert mainly because of the changeable weather.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned17、Grasses and flowers in desert are able to survive because they stay in the form of seeds to wait for the right amount of water to come.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned18、Grasses and flowers in the desert whose life cycles are short shows their ability to adapt to the quick disappearance of rainwater there after it falls in spring.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned19、Winter is the toughest season for grasses and flowers to survive in desertA Right B Wrong C Not mentioned20、The shoot system of perennials can help the plants absorb less of the sun's ray.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned21、The theme of the second last paragraph is why the perennials can survive as plants for several years.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned22、Desert perennials lose their leaves after the rainy season just as trees lose theirs in wetter climates before winter arrives, but the reasons for this feature are different.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned第3部分:概括大意与完成句子 (第2330题,第题1分,共8分)新闻记者下面这篇短文后有2项测试任务:(1)第2326题要求从所给的6个选取项中为第25段选择1个正确的小标题;(2)第2730题材要求从所给的6个选项中选择4个正确选项,分别完成每个句子。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。Local Newspapers in Britain1. Britain has a large circulation (发行量) of the national newspapers. The Daily Mirror and The Daily Express both sell about 4 million copies each day. On average, every family will buy one newspaper in the morning, and take two or three on Sundays.2. Local newspapers are just as popular as the national ones in Britain. Local papers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Nearly every town and country area has its own paper, and almost every local paper is financially holding its own. Many local newspapers are earning good profits.3. Local newspapers have their special characteristics. They mainly satisfy interest in local events - births, weddings, deaths, council meetings, and sports. Editors often rely on a small staff of people who know the district well. Clubs and churches in the neighborhood regularly supply these papers with much local news. Local news does not get out of date as quickly as national news. If there is no room for it in this week's edition, a news item can be held over until the following week.4. The editor of a local newspaper never forgets that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. For this reason, he is keen to keep the good will of local businessmen. If the newspaper sells well with carefully chosen news items to attract local readers, the businessmen will be grateful to the paper for the opportunity of keeping their products in the public eye.5. Local newspapers seldom comment on problems of national importance, and editors rarely take sides on political questions. But they can often provide service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues. A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action to improve transport, provide better shopping facilities, and preserve local monuments and places of interest.23、Paragraph 2.24、Paragraph 3.25、Paragraph 4.26、Paragraph 5.A Keeping Good' Relations with Local BusinessmenB Service Provided by Local NewspapersC Large Circulation of the National NewspapersD Special Features of Local NewspapersE Power of Local NewspapersF Popularity of Local Newspapers27、British people have the habit of reading newspapers in the.28、Many local newspapers in Britain are making.29、Local newspapers are well received because they carry articles that please.30、Local newspapers rarely give opinions on.A a lot of moneyB local peopleC morningD local peopleE national issuesF local issues第4部分:阅读理解(第3145题,每题3分,共45分)下面有3篇短文,每篇幅短文后有5道题,每题材后面有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并根据短文回答其后面的问题,从4个选项中选择一个最佳答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。第一篇Sony's Vision For The FutureAs the television, communications and telecommunications industries emerge, compatibility (兼容性) becomes a big issue for consumers. I think we should maintain open and compatible standards and create features particular to Sony, in other words, the system should be open but the services could be distinctive - like restaurants. The menus may be alike but the services are different.Being president of Sony Corporation, I am often asked by this question: With digital cameras and digital camcorders (摄像机), what will be the future of digital imaging?In 1997, optimists see non-traditi0nal cameras digital cameras achieving sales of one million units in Japan. We are selling a new digital camera. Even though the price is quite high, it is selling well. And laser and ink-jet printers have improved greatly for printing colour pictures. But traditional pictures are still more popular than those from today's electronic cameras. Because of that, traditional cameras and digital cameras will co-exist for a long time.If you want me to sum up Sony's vision for the next few years, all I can say is that there will be a big change. We can run our business at Sony based on today's technologies which means the digitalisation of audio and video. But beyond 2000, there will be a big change and we should be prepared. This will be the network environment. So we are preparing for a big change in technologies and for a change in the way of thinking as well.We celebrate our 50 anniversary this year (1997), and this coincides (与一致) with what I call the transistor cycle, which has also lasted fifty years Since we started using transistors in radios, the electronic industry has undergone a big evolution. But a new technology wave started with the invention of the microprocessor, about 14 or 15 years ago. My theory is that each business cycle lasts 50 years, with one cycle overlapping (重叠) another. The information age started 15 years ago with microprocessors and for another 10 years it will be in the takeoff stage. Like an airport, a 747 approaching the end of the runway is still gathering speed. So for information technology, for another five to seven years there will not be so much change, only increasing speed. But after that you fly. What that will mean, I cannot foresee. I'm just preparing for the takeoff stage while I'm president. The job of the next generation will be more important. I'm just in-between.31、Why does the president of Sony Corporation mention restaurants in the first paragraph?A To praise Japanese restaurants for offering good services.B To explain that Japanese restaurants are distinctive.C To explain what has just been said.D To emphasize that restaurants are all alike.32、What is the president's view on digital cameras and traditional ones?A Digital cameras will be cheaper than traditional ones in the near future.B Digital cameras and traditional cameras will co-exist for ever.C The prices of digital cameras will go down very soon.D Digital cameras will not take the place of traditional ones in the next few years.33、What will take place in the next few years, according to the president?A A big change in technologies and in the way of thinking.B A change in digitalisation.C A change in the way of manufacturing.D A change in the business cycle.34、How long does each business cycle last, according to the president?A 10 years.B 14 or15 years.C 25 years.D 50 years.35、What does the president say he is doing?A He is designing jobs for the next generation.B He is preparing for the 'fly' stage.C He is doing something for the takeoff stage.D He is flying an aircraft.第二篇LaughterThere is an old saying in English: "Laughter is the best medicine". Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to investigate laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found evidence that laughter really can improve people's health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films, while doctors checked their heart rate blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be capable of reducing the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group which tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals which diminish both stress and pain.There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the body's immune system, that is, the system which fights infection. In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group served as the control group - in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells, that is, the cells which fight infection.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists (精神病学) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.36、We learn from the first paragraph that laughterA is good for one's health.B is related to some illness.C has been investigated long since.D has no effect on the body.37、Doctors have found that laughterA keeps down blood pressure.B has similar effects to physical exercise.C decreases the heart rate.D increases stress.38、Which of the following statements is NOT true of laughter, according to the passage?A It reduces pain,B It exercises the body.C it improves the body's immune system.D It can cure cancer.39、In a laughter clinic, doctorsA laugh at their patients.B encourage their patients to laugh.C smile when they don't feel like laughing.D never stop laughing. -40、The writer's attitude towards laughter isA critical.B doubtful.C positive.D negative.第三篇 Greenhouse EffectA greenhouse is a building made of glass which is used for keeping plants warm when the outside temperature is low. In a similar way, there are several gases in the atmosphere which trap the heat generated by t
