relatively little research has thoroughly traced the effects of online shopping on transportation networks. but a recent study in newark，delaware suggests that the indirect effects of online shopping may worsen traffic congestion(堵塞) and transport一related carbon emissions. researchers at the university of delaware conducted a survey of downtown newark residents shopping habits and preferences and used the responses to calculate the quantity of goods purchased through home shopping. they also got information from delivery companies about the number of trucks on the road and the number of packages per truck，and used this to determine how many delivery trucks are required to distribute home shopping purchases. finally，the researchers used transportation simulation software and data from local transportation authorities to determine the effect of delivery trucks on the transportation network，focusing on an area of downtown newark that includes a part of the universitys campus. they conducted similar analyses in 2001，at the dawn of the online shopping era, and again in 2008. curiously，the 2008 data suggested that home shopping in newark had grown by only 14.8% since 2001 .thats much less than the researchers predicted in their earlier study. it also contrasts with data from other researchers showing that internet shoppingincreased six-fold between 2001 and 2011. “we found that the total number of vehicles miles travelled hasnt decreased at all with the growth of online shopping，”says study leader arde faghri，professor of civil and environmental engineering and director of the delaware center for transportation. this suggests that people are using the time they save by shopping on the internet to do other things like eating out at restaurants，going to the movies，or visiting friends.”32. according to the passage，how did the researchers carry out the research?a. by observing and interviewing. b. by surveying and analyzing.c. by discussing and contrasting. d. by imagining and predicting.33. what can we know from the sixth paragraph?a. the 2008 data of the online shopping were more than those predicted.b. the online shopping was becoming more popular in 2011.c. home shopping in newark had grown by only 18.4% since 2001. d. the online shopping began in 2008.34. whats the relationship between the online shopping and the environment? a. the online shopping is good for the environment. b. the online shopping improves the life quality of people. c. good environment is beneficial to the online shopping. d. the online shopping does harm to the environment.35. whats the best title of the passage? a. how did online shopping begin? b. what benefits does online shopping have? c. how convenient is online shopping? d. how green is online shopping?第二節(jié)(共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填人空白處的最佳選項，選項中有兩項為多余選。how to prepare for the first time at anythingthere are no unchanged things in the world，and everything is developing and changing at anytime. 36 using the following tips youll have a much better chance to enjoy the experience the next time you face something new.dont pursue the perfectionon very rare occasions can you manage to do something perfectly thefirst time you do it，so when you do something for the first time，it is time to give up the goal of perfection. in general，it is useless to struggle for perfection when you do something for the first time. try to be perfect is just a waste of time. 37 the time you spend doesnt matter one common characteristic of doing something for the first time is that it is most likely to be more time-consuming. if you are inexperienced，the first few times you are just going to be learning anyway-and hopefully getting better in the process. 38 you will realize that the second time is much easier, since you already have some experience in your pocket. 39 once you have gone through your“first time experience”，youll have broken the biggest barrier of all. the excitement and fear is most likely gone and the next time wont be that scary any more. to make the next time even a smoother experience，youd better write things down during your first time. you can go through them when preparing for the second time. 40 a. prepare for the second timeb. forget what others thinkc. youll feel bad when you are not able to meet the level you have setd. just take your time and try to learn as much as possible as you goe. so youll never be fully prepared for the first time at everythingf. this way can help you to feel more confident before the actual event beginsg. remember that others have also started from” zero as well第三部分 英語知識運(yùn)用 (共兩節(jié), 滿分45分)第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后所給的四個選項（a、b、c和d）中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。 one october morning, the sky was clear and the sun was shining. bethany hamilton decided to go 41 with some friends in hawaii. as one of the best teenage surfers in the world, the 13-year-old american girl was planning to become a 42 surfer. cheerfully, she was lying on her surfboard, waiting for the next big wave. suddenly, a big shark 43 her left arm and shook her backwardsand forwards. bethany held onto her board and the shark eventually swam away - but it took her 44 away with it. 45 it attacked only once. it happened so fast that she didnt even 46. as bethany started to swim back to the beach with one arm, her friends thought she was joking. but to their horror, they saw the 47 and rushed to help. having lost almost half the blood, bethanys 48 was a miracle(奇跡)，according to doctors, but she wanted to do 49 just survive.“it never crossed my mind that i might never get on a surfboard again,” she recalled later.“i wondered whether i would actually be 50 do it or not. but 51 i left hospital, i had decided that i was going to surf.”with the support of her family, bethany 52 to get back on her board only one month after the attack. her dad fixed a handle on her surfboard to help her paddle(劃水) through and into waves.when she returned to surfing at a competition in hawaii, bethany was 53 in dangerous waves that broke her surfboard. as a result, she gave away her remaining boards and quit. she tried using an artificial arm, but it turned out to be 54 while surfing. after 55 in thailand in the 2004 earthquake and helping homeless survivors who had lost everything, bethany 56 her decision to give up the sport she loved and 57 to try professional surfing again. less than a year
