DTemporary.解析：词义猜测题。第四段该句中，while表示对比，ephemeral与lasted for weeks or even months“持久的”意义相反，是“暂时的”；B项意为“现在的、目前的”，与“过去的(past)”和“将来的(future)”意义相对，所以不对。A、C则与while后文意义不能形成对比。答案：D2Why is the ice in the center of ice rings frozen while that at the edge is melted?ABecause the center of ice rings is 2 to 4 warmer than the edge.BBecause the currents in the center are less powerful.CBecause it is too wide to be recognized or incited.DBecause water in the center circulates in a clockwise direction.解析：细节理解题。考查因果关系。从第二段第三句“In the eddy center，the ice does not melteven though the water is warmbecause the currents are weak”可知B项正确。因为暖流不够急促，所以造成只有冰的边缘才能溶解的现象；A项偷换概念，从第三段最后一句可知漩涡水温高于周边水温，不是冰环中心与边缘温差的比较，更不是题干原因；C项同样表述有误，从第四段第一句可知其讲述的是most of the rings，不是the ice in the center of ice rings，而且答非所问；D项表述不准确，从第二段第二句可知，water in the center应改为warm eddies，并且不是冰环中心保持冻结的原因。答案：B3Which of the following statements about Lake Baikals eddies is TRUE?AThey are caused by hot and circular currents under the ice.BThe ice in the center of Lake Baikals eddies melts faster than that of the edge.CResearchers are uncertain about the exact reason of the eddies existence.DLake Baikals eddies can only be measured at the depth of 700 feet.解析：细节理解题。从文章最后一段可知C项正确。从最后一段第一句“Researchers are still investigating what causes Baikals eddies.”可知Baikals eddies的成因尚不明确，故A项错误，根据第一段第二句，A项可改为“the rings are caused by warm，circular currents.”；根据第二段第一句可知B项表述错误；根据第三段“Kouraev and his colleagues.set sensors capable of measuring the temperature and salinity of the water to a depth of 700 feet”可知D项偷换概念。答案：C4What maybe the best title for the text?AWhats Causing the Giant Ice Rings in Siberia?BThe Mystery of the Eddies in the Lake Baikal was Uncovered.CThe Largest and Deepest Freshwater LakeLake Baikal.DWhy Does the Edge of an Ice Ring Melt Faster?解析：标题归纳题。此文主要介绍了西伯利亚贝加尔湖多年的冰环之谜的答案在于冰面下方的暖流漩涡，所以选A。解答漩涡之谜，并非本文重点，只在最后提及而已，B项表述有误；C项的范围太大；D项范围缩小，不足以概括文章。答案：A.短文改错I have been decided to become a pilot since I am a little kid.Each time I see a plane flying across sky, I feel extremely excited but want to fly it.That is why I believe it can make me happily and free.To make my dream come true, I have to be physically fit by keeping a healthy diet and work out regularly.Besides, I must work hard to make great progresses with my studies.Although it is not that easy to being a pilot, Ill never give up my dream and spare no effort to realize them.答案：I havebeendecided to become a pilot since I a little kid.Each time I see a plane flying across sky, I feel extremely excited want to fly it.That is I believe it can make me and free.To make my dream come true, I have to be physically fit by keeping a healthy diet and out regularly.Besides, I must work hard to make great with my studies.Although it is not that easy to a pilot, Ill never give up my dream and spare no effort to realize .书面表达假定你是李华，你的加拿大朋友Allen来信询问你校学生参与劳动实践活动的情况。请给他回信，内容包括：1.劳动实践内容(如家务劳动、校园劳动、校外劳动)及其意义；2.你最常参与的劳动实践活动，并谈谈你的感受。注意：1.词数100左右；2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 参考范文Dear Allen，Hearing that youre interested in the labor practice activity we are involved in at present, Id like to introduce it to you.In our school, every student is required to take part in at least sixteen hours of labor practice per semester, including housework and labor activities in and out of school, which is aimed at raising students awareness of working.As for me, I usually help to do the housework，which can not only strengthen my family bond, but also relieve the burdens of my parents.If there are still other questions regarding it, please feel free to contact me.Yours sincerely，Li Hua
