It was as dramatic as thunderstorm，yet calm.Gentle,yet_33_,Most of all,it was a gift. This was my fifth aurora trip and the first time I had seen fast movements and bright colours.The calm green auroral displays that many people see are driven by a(n)_34_ stream of particles(微 )from called the solar wind.

Reading Comprehension Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Marmoset monkeys exist on a branch of the evolutionary tree that is distinct from the one that led to mans. But they constantly astonish researchers with _ 41_ behavior that seems pretty highly evolved. 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 3 页，共 11 页 - - - - - - - - - Their social organization and _ 42_ practices could have been the model for the phrase “It takes a village.” A dominant male and female breed, and their babies are carefully looked after by extended family members who then arent free to breed themselves. A new study further _ 43_ the marmoset s reputation for admirable community values. Researchers report that these caregivers share their food more generously with little ones _ 44_ than when they re surrounded by the watchful eyes of other community members. In complex so cieties where individuals band together for _ 45_ protection, researchers have come up with a few widely accepted explanations for selfless behavior. But specific acts, like sharing a delicious cricket（蟋蟀 ) with a begging baby marmoset, seem to need more _ 46_ explanation One possibility is that an individual practices _ 47_ as a means of enhancing his status among peers. By _ 48_ that he is so well gifted with material goods that he can give some away, this do-gooder enhances his power within the group. That, in turn, may _ 49_ prospective mates. The other explanation for charitable behavior _ 50_ that kindnesses extended to others are simply the fees of group membership, which offers some future promise of a chance to mate. Failure to share would result in exclusion from the group and a loss of _ 51_ partners. Scientists call this the “pay to stay ” model. Importantly, for both of these models to work, acts of kindness must have a(n) _ 52_. That suggests you would see more sharing in group settings; away from judging eyes, a caregiver might be more likely to keep food for himself or herself. And yet, in 2,581 tests conducted with 31 adult and 14 baby marmosets, the _ 53_ appeared to be true Anthropologists ( 人类学家 ) from the University of Zurich carefully documented how often, in groups and in conditions that found caregiver and baby separated from the crowd, an adult would share his or her cricket. When alone with a baby begging for a taste, adult marmosets shared their cricket 85% of the time. When in a group, caregivers offered up their cricket 67% of the time.” Our results show that helping in common marmosets is not driven by reputation management or _ 54_ avoidance, “ the study authors reported Rather, it is driven by a deep-down motivation to help that is more _ 55_ expressed when individuals are alone with young. ”41.A. animal B. careful C. social D. individual 42.A. evolving B communicating C organizing D. parenting 43.A shines B damages C. affects D protests 44.A. at play B in private C. on schedule D by accident 45.A. adequate B effective C. continual D. mutual 46.A. creative B complex C specific D. official 47.A. generosity B wisdom C independence D governance 48.A. promising B demonstrating C. pretending D. explaining 49.A. count on B. go after C. appeal to D. benefit from 50.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. choose the one that fits best according to the Information given in the passage you have just read. (A) What to endure before publication? It takes a lot to write a novel. Even those who havent tried would say, “Well, duh!” to this. But its not much the mind space or the considerable time it takes to write a novel that is as discouraging as how many times any writer must go back to the drawing board for yet another draft. To really ready a novel for publication, a writer must spend time with his or her book. Like any promising relationship, you, the writer , must date your novel, take it out to dinner, meet its parents, and see it through its most trying and desperate times. As a writer, you have to stay up all night with your novel crying and talking and sometimes even pulling your hair out before that perfect moment of inspiration can truly help you cross the finish line. For many published authors I know, myself included, a completed novel takes them about 10, thats right, 10 drafts, and at least a year of real editing. Will you be spending every single second editing your novel? No, of course not. Just as drafts need some real time on the surgery table, they also need rest in the recovery room. You dont nurse a relationship by spending every waking second with them until you can t stand the sight of each other, and you cant produce a novel by breathing down its literary neck . However, a novel should undergo many drafts-and different kinds of drafts before declaring it ready for an agent or editor to see. Everyone has their own way to write a novel, and not all craft advice (or even craft “rules”) should all be followed by everyone, but when it comes to the many drafts of a novel, there are specific things a writer should focus on during each revision to help create a smooth transition from the initial idea to final products. 56. People are discouraged from writing a novel mainly because it requires _. A. a good publisher B. too much thinking C. tons of working time D. frequent revisions 57. What do writers do in the course of creating a novel? A. They spend every minute with the novel. B. They treat the novel as a lover. C. They go out with some readers for dinner. D. They hurt themselves to stay awake. 58. By “breathing down its literary neck” in Paragraph 2, the author most probably means _. A. writing casually thus failing to take readers breath awayB. letting go a single mistake thus annoying the readers C. X-raying the work thus finding each literary mistake D. sticking too close to the work thus causing anxiety 59. Which of the following is most likely to come after the last paragraph? A. The importance of using proper transitional words in writing. B. The writing experience shared by famous successful write. C. Tips on how to make ten drafts to complete a good novel. 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 5 页，共 11 页 - - - - - - - - - D.
