The teacher told me that the test tube broke in half at the bottom because we didn't dry it properly before _36_ it. We calmed down and did the experiment, again. But our hearts were still _37_ rapidly even after we walked out of the lab. But my bad _38_ didn't end there! Since all _39 was focused on the flames while we were in the lab, I didn't see the liquid falling onto my trousers. During the following class, I felt a _40_ in my leg.

We Chinese often consider ourselves "the descendants(后代)of the dragon." It is not unfamiliar to you that your parents hope that you "may become the dragon". As a mythical(神秘的)creature, the dragon is deeply rooted in Chinese culture. Traditionally, dragons are considered to govern rainfall. They have the power to decide where and when the rain falls. In addition, the dragon is a symbol of imperial (帝王的)power. The emperors thought they were real dragons and the sons of the heaven. But the creature is regarded differently in Western countries. In the Bible, dragons represent the devil(恶人). Western people usually see dragons as cold-blooded reptiles(爬虫), like snakes and cruel killers. In their eyes, dragons are also dishonest.Dragons in Western literature are presented as monsters(怪物). It is a common tale for a mediaeval knight(中世纪的骑士) to kill a dragon and save a princess and her country from its evil. Even the popular boy wizard Harry Potter has to battle against a dragon. However, dragons are not all bad in the West. "Puff the Magic Dragon" is a well-known song. The lyrics(歌词) tell a bitter-sweet story of the dragon Puff and his playmate Jackie Paper, a little boy. When Jackie grows up, he loses interest in the imaginary adventures of childhood and leaves Puff upset. Puff represents the innocence of a child's imagination, which is very positive for a dragon. 46. The underlined word” emblems” in the first paragraph means “_”.A. symbolsB. names C. placesD. parks47 What is a dragon presented as according to Western literature?A.A wizardB. A mediaeval knight C. A princess D. A monster 48. The writer gave the example of “ Puff the Magic Dragon” to show_.A. dragons can represent the innocence of childs imaginationB. children dont like to play with dragonsC. dragons are not all bad in the West D. not all people in the West like dragonsBWeve heard about radiation from the damaged nuclear reactors in Japan reaching American shores. Experts say so far there is no reason to worry, and point out that we meet radiation every day. Where and how? NPRs Renee Montagne posed that question to Peter Caracappa, a radiation safety officer and professor of nuclear engineering.MONTAGNE: How many things emit radiation?Dr CARACAPPA: Well, radiation and radioactive material is a part of nature. So everything thats living has some amount of radiation coming from ita very small amout. Plus theres radiation in the ground and the air.So the extremes are uranium in the soil to bananas?Yes.By the way, why do bananas have radiation?Bananas have a lot of potassium(钾). And a small amount of potassium naturally is called potassium 40, which is radioactive. .Whats the difference between radiation thats harmful and not harmful?Well, the term radiation can apply to a lot of different things. But the harmful radiation is ionizing(离子)radiation. It has enough energy that it can make chemical changes in material. We could get ionizing radiation from an X-ray, for example. Its the kind of radiation that causes cancer.The broader definition of radiation includes a lot of things that we call non-ionizing radiation. That includes everything like radio waves and visible light and your microwave. So what then is the largest contributor of ionizing radiation?For the natural sources of ionizing radiation, actually the biggest chunk of that tends to come from radon(氡), which is a radioactive material that is present in the air. It can become a concern when it builds up in low-lying areas of homes like basements.Would it be fair to say that most people do not need to worry about the danger of being exposed to radiation?I would say that the everyday exposure to radioation that we meet contributes an extremely tiny risk to our life or to our health compared to all of the other risks that we meet in our day-to-day life.49. We can infer from the first paragraph that radiation is_. A. rareB. powerfulC. dangerousD. common50. The passage may be _. A. an interviewB. an argumentC. a talk show programD. a science report51. Whether radiation is harmful or not depends on_. A. whether it has a small amount of potassium B. whether it changes chemical in materials. C. whether it has energy to change materials D. whether it is visible in life52. The purpose of writing this passage is to _. A. advise on how to protect us from radiationB. analyze what causes radiation in daily life C. warn people of the danger of radiationD. expect people not to fear everyday radiationCA mouse looked through a hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package. What food might it contain? He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap!Running to the farmyard, the mouse shouted, warning, “There is a mouse trap in the house; there is a mouse trap in the house.” The chicken with her head high, said, “Shut up, Little Ugly. This is a great concern to you, but it has nothing to do with me; I cannot be bothered by it.” The mouse turned to the pig and told him, “There is a mouse trap in the house.” “I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse,” said the pig, “but there is nothing I can do about it but pray; you are always in my prayers.”The mouse turned to the cow, who said, “A mouse trap; am I in great danger, huh?”So the mouse had to face the farmers mouse trap alone.That very night a sound was heard through the house, like the sound of a mouse trap catching its prey. The farmers wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see that it was a poisonous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmers wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital.She returned home with a fever. It is said that drinking fresh chicken soup will help treat fever, so the farmer took his sharp knife to the farmyard for the soups main ingredient. His wifes sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer killed the pig. The farmers wife did not get well, in fact, she died, and so many people came for her funeral. The farmer had the cow killed to provide meat for all of them to eat. So next time someone is facing a problem, dont say that has nothing to do with you.53. We could see from the passage that the mouse was_.A. good at cheating othersB. dishonestC. kind and warm-heartedD. foolish54. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The others helped the farmer kill the cow.B. The mouse trap was very practical.C. The pig is more friendly than the other animals.D. The farmers family had no friends at all55. What can we learn from the story?A. Traps can always cause chain reactionsB. Sometimes when the least of us are threatened, we all might be at risk.C. It is better to be safe than to be sorry.D. To keep the balance of nature is the duty of us all.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Without plants, people could not live. We eat plants. _56_ And we need plants for another reason: we need them because they are beautiful. _57_ Imagine no flowers with their sweet smell, their beautiful colors and their lovely shapes.

That is why people always like houses with room for some grass or a garden. Do you talk to your plants? _59_ Peter Tompking and Christopher Bird wrote a book called The Secret Life Of Plants, telling of an experiment in which two seeds were planted in different places.
