Then she ran along the edge （边缘）of a cliff（悬崖） and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall, who turned up in seconds. Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr. Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken. Then, one day, the phone rang and Steve Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall, asked Holden if he would like his dog back.A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While hesounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious（失去矢口觉的）but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff.

Looking like a setting from the film Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, Singapore*s Chocolate Research Facility （CRF） has over 100 varieties of chocolates, its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents1 comer store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets .If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, thafs because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored （味道）chocolates.The CRF's produce is "green”, made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series with Sichuan pepper, red bean ,cheese and other flavors 一 also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs, who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela , and Ghana, among others.28. What is good about chocolate?A. It serves as a suitable gift.B It works as an effective medicine.C. It helps improve the state of mind.D. It strengthens business relations.29. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A. He knows the importance of research.B. He learns form shops of similar types.C He has the support of many big namesD. He has a lot of marketing experience.30. Which line of the CRF produce sells best?A The Connoisseur Series.B The Exotic Series.C. The Alcohol Series.D The Sichuan Series .31. The words "chocolate snobs" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who.A are particular about chocolateB. know little about cocoa beansC look down upon othersD. like to try new flavorsDIt is 7 am and the alarm is going off. You know you have to be out of bed to catch the bus. But the urge to bury yourself in the bed is ever so strong. Sounds familiar? Why is it that teens find it difficult to get themselves out of bed in time every morning or stay sharp and focused during the first couple of hours of school?During adolescence, the body goes through many changes and these include a shift in sleep patterns. Researchers from MIT have been tracking the body's need fbr sleep in teenagers. They found that though adolescents need as much as 9.5 hours of sleep a day, they get to bed later and later with each passing year. In fact, the sleep cycle shifts later by as much as 12 to 18 minutes each year between the ages of 10 and 20! So by the time a 10-year-old who sleeps at 8 pm grows to be 17 or 18, his body naturally wants to stay up till 10： 30 pm or 11 pm.According to researchers, this is because of a hormone called melatonin （褪黑激素）that is secreted （分泌）by the pineal gland-a tiny structure deep inside the brain. Melatonin regulates the body's natural day-night rhythms. It causes a person to become sleepy by lowering his body's core temperature. In teens, melatonin is secreted much later in the evening and continues to increase throughout the night. This makes it difficult for teens to fall asleep earlier as they did in their younger years. Likewise, the effect of melatonin continues until much later in the morning, making it hard for them to wake up early.A study found that at least one in four teens is tired and falls asleep in school at least once a week. During sleep, important body functions and brain activities happen. So how can teenagers get their sleep enough ? The American Academy of Pediatrics （AAP）recommends that middle and high schools should start later-not before 8： 30 am. This should give teens some more time to sleep at night.32. We can learn that if you sleep late, the next day you should.A. stay sharp B. skip breakfast C. get up late D. stay up late 33. What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The students want to stay up.B The shifts of the sleep cycle.C. The pineal gland secretes melatonin.D. The adolescents sleep late.34. The teens go to sleep later than before because.A.melatonin is secreted muchlaterB.melatonin regulates the sleep timeC they sleep a lot in the daytimeD.they need to finish their homework35. According to AAP's recommendation, middle and high schools should.A.let teens sleep in the dayB.let the students be activeC.delay the start timeD.start later at 8:30 am第二节（共5小题；每题2分，总分值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正确选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 36 But it seems that many people don't cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn't difficult. 37 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.38 Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you're standing at the Ocean's edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn't fresh. 39 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you'd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don't cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn't as tasty as the fresh one.There are many common methods used to cook fish. 40 First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices（调料）.Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. A larger one will take more time. Then, it's ready to serve.A. So do not buy it.B. The easiest way is to steam it.C. This is how you can do it.D. It just requires a little knowledge.E. The fish will go bad within hours.F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease. 第三局部 英语知识运用（共两节，总分值45分） 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题分，共30分）Dad had a green comb. He bought it when he married Mum.
