10、new man-made gases that are contributing to the damage to the ozone(臭氧) layer. Two of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers.Worries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases restricted since the mid 1980s. But the

11、precise origin of these new, similar substances remains a mystery.Lying in the atmosphere, the ozone layer plays a critical role in blocking harmful UV rays, which cause cancers in humans and reproductive problems in animals.Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey were the first to discover a h

12、uge “hole” in the ozone over Antarctica in 1985. The evidence quickly pointed to CFC gases, which were invented in the 1920s, and were widely used in refrigeration. Extraordinarily, global action was rapidly agreed to deal with CFCs and the Montreal Protocol to limit these substances came into being

13、 in 1987. A total global ban on production came into force in 2010.Now, the newly discovered four new gases can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere from as yet unidentified sources. Three of the gases are CFCs and one is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), which can also damage ozone.The

14、 research has shown that four gases were not around in the atmosphere at all until the 1960s, which suggests they are man-made. The scientists discovered the gases by analyzing polar snow pack. Air from this snow is a natural archive of what was in the atmosphere up to 100 years ago. There searchers

15、 also looked at modern air samples, collected at remote Cape Grim in Tasmania.They estimate that about 74,000 tonnes of these gases have been released into the atmosphere. Two of the gases are accumulating at significant rates. However, they dont know where the new gases are being released from and

16、this should be investigated. Possible sources include chemicals for insecticide (殺蟲劑)production and solvents (溶液) for cleaning electronic components. The three CFCs are being destroyed very slowly in :the atmosphereso even if emissions (散發(fā))were to stop immediately, they will still be around for many

17、 decades to come.Of the four species identified, CFC-113a seems the most worrying as there is a very small but growing emission source somewhere, maybe from agricultural insecticides. We should find it and take it out of production.1、What do we know about the newly discovered gases?ASome are surely

18、produced by the development of agriculture.BThe CFCs will have a long impact once they are released.CThey gather together in the atmosphere at a medium speed.DTheir amounts are not large enough to cause damage to us.2、The underlined word “archive” in Paragraph 6 is closest to the meaning of “ ”.Asta

19、teBresourceCphenomenonDstoreroom3、What will the scientists probably attempt to do about the gases next?AFind out what can replace things like insecticides and put them into use.BFind out how they destroy ozone and get rid of those in the atmosphere.CFind out where they are exactly from and stop them

20、 from being released.DFind out if HCFC is more harmful than CFCs and take proper measures.22（8分） It may be made possible for computers and robots to read human personalities by reading human eye movements.The eyes are really the windows to the soul. That is the result of a new study on the connectio

21、n between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of South Australia and Published in the scientific Journal Frontiers in Neuroscience. And if that is true, computers and robots powered by sophisticated algorithms (算法) may soon have the ability to

22、 peer into your soul.Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality, wrote the researchers, led by Tobias Loetscher, whose team followed 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determined their personality traits (特點) with well-est

23、ablished questionnaires for determining personality type, and unfolded some kind of connections between eye movements and personality, according to a summary of the study published by the site Science Daily.The researchers expected that with the data fed into their algorithms computers running the a

24、lgorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a persons major personality traits, such as neuroticism, extraversion (外向)，agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as perceptual curiosity, the scientists wrote.The new finding might help improve the way human beings inter

25、act with their computers and other high-tech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines, Loetscher said.People are always looking for improved, personalized services. Todays robots and computers are not socially aware so they cannot adapt to non-v

26、erbal information, Loetscher said in a statement quoted by Indian Express. This research provides opportunities to develop robots and computers that can become more natural, and better at interpreting human social signals.The study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personal

27、ity characteristics and specific eye movement tendencies, according to a summary in Britains Daily Mail newspaper.1、What is the finding of the new study?ARobots can understand human personality.BEye movements connect with personality.CComputers record human eye movements.DPersonality determines huma

28、n eye movements.2、What does Paragraph 3 mainly introduce?AThe research subjects.BThe research process.CThe research outcomes.DThe research application.3、What can be inferred from what Loetscher said?ARobots will be smarter than humans.BMachines may become more social.CThe research is of little signi

29、ficance.DHuman-machine interaction will explode.4、What does the text mainly tell us?AThe finding of a new study.BEyes as windows to the soul.CThe human-machine interaction.DThe development of high-tech devices.23（8分）I still remember my hands and my fingers still remember what used to lie in store fo

30、r us on our return to school from the holidays. The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up!” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once!” There was enough work ther

31、e, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now see that its done properly, and be quick about it,” the headmaster would say to the elder pupils, “or youll have to answer for it!”So at an order from the elder boys we wo

32、uld all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us a helping hand, used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows, we used to bribe (

33、賄賂) the elder boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we did not do this, or if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so viole

34、ntly and with such evil enjoyment even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being beaten not so much to make us work harder, hut rather to beat us into a state of obedience (服從) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.Occasionally one of us, worn out by su

35、ch calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the elder boys was always very small nothing compared to what they had clone to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve

36、 in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I dont know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating was completely foreign to our n

37、ature.1、The statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para. 1) means that _.Athe author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning upBthe authors hands were his only tool for the cleaningCthe authors hands were severely injured in the cleaning upDthe author was bullied by the big boys in th

38、e cleaning up2、The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because _.Athe students didnt finish their homeworkBthe school yard were covered with mudChe was too lazyDthere were many fallen leaves on the ground3、The headmaster asked the elder boys to

39、 _.Abeat those who worked slowlyBtreat the small boys as peanutsClake charge of the process of the cleaningDdo the cleaning all by themselves4、According to Para. 3, if the author had any money on him, he most probably _.Agave it to the big boys so as to please themBgave it as a bride to the headmast

40、erCspent it all on his midday mealDspent it buying midday meals for the big boys24（8分） Cruz Genet, 11, and Anthony Skopick, 10, couldnt agree. Were the birds on the ice ducks or geese? There was only one way to find out. So on a cold January evening, the two friends risked onto the frozen pond near

41、their house in Frankfort, Illinois, to get a better look. First they threw a small stone to test it. Then they stepped on it. Believing the ice would hold their weight, Anthony took a few steps, then. He fell through the seemingly frozen ice.Cruz rushed to help his frightened friendthe pond “ate” hi

42、m too. Gruz managed to lift himself out of the water and onto a more reliable part. He then carefully made his way to Anthony. But the ice didnt hold, and he fell in again. This time he couldnt get out. The boys quickly lost feeling in their arms and legs. Cruz was sure he was going to die.Anthonys

43、older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming for help. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby on his way to the grocery store, heard her. He quickly pulled over. Seeing the boys, he kicked off his shoes, and run into the freezing water. Lavin made his way to Cruz and Anth

44、ony and saved them back to land. They were taken to the hospital, where doctors discovered that their five-minute stay in the water had lowered their body temperature nearly ten degrees.Fortunately, the boys have fully recovered, though they are still moved by their fearless neighbor. “Just to think

45、,” says Gruz, “if he wasnt there, I could have died.”1、Why did Gruz and Anthony step on the ice?ATo go skating.BTo trap some birds.CTo settle a disagreement.DTo test the strength of the ice.2、How did Cruz feel when caught in the water?AHopeless.BPuzzled.CShocked.DCalm.3、What basically saved the two

46、boys lives?AScreaming of an older sister.BBetter care of doctors.Clowering of their body temperature.DBrave act of a neighbor.4、What is the best title for the text?ATwo Boys Falling in the WaterBA Heroic Man to the RescueCDuck or Geese, It Is a QuestionDCuriosity Kills the Cat25（10分）Do companies nee

47、d a strong leader to stay competitive? Many would say “yes, definitely”, but the employees of one Swedish software consultancy company would tell them otherwise. They dont have a CEO. Nobody tells anyone what to do, instead, all the 40 employees have meetings and decide together.Crisp has become wor

48、ld famous for not having a boss. Hoping to get its employees more involved, it moved on to change its chief executive officer (CEO) annually, but ultimately, the 40-strong staff decided to scrap the position altogether.Well, it turns out that not having a boss, and being involved in decision making

49、has made Crisps 40 employees more responsible and motivated. And even if someone does make a bad call at some point, its definitely not the end of the world.According to the BBC, the unique Swedish company is apparently set up more like a family nobody tells anyone what to do, but the unspoken under

50、standing is that “you dont mess up the house”.Crisp does hold four-day meetings for the whole staff two or three times a year, when they decide on things that affect everyone, like changing their headquarters, but generally, company employees are encouraged to make their own decisions. They also hav

51、e a company board, a legal requirement in Sweden, which acts as a last resort, in case something goes horribly wrong.So far, the “no CEO” experiment has gone surprisingly well. Henrik Kniberg, an organizational coach at Crisp, claims that not having to ask the boss to approve project decisions or bu

52、dgets means that things happen a lot faster and the company can respond to clients quicker.However, Kniberg stresses that not having to ask the CEOs permission about stuff doesnt remove employees responsibility to consult with their colleagues and explain their decisions. However, some CEOs believe

53、that the idea only works in small startups, because it would be too chaotic（混亂的）in large organizations.1、What can we learn from the text?AT here was no CEO in the company from the very beginning.BEveryone in the company is the boss.CEvery employee takes turns to take charge of Crisp.DThe company boa

54、rd was founded for more than legal purpose.2、Crisps practice without a boss is successful because _.Ait has encouraged every staff member to contribute to the companyBit has helped its employees avoid making mistakesCit has made Crisp world famous in the competitive environmentDit has saved money ot

55、herwise paid to the CEO3、It can be inferred from the text EXEPT that _.ACrisps successful way may not be popularized in a big companyBmaking quick decisions is an advantage in businessCemployees in Crisp have to discuss with each otherDCrisps employees are actually relatives4、Which factor may NOT co

56、ntribute to a companys success according to the text?AQuick response to its clients.BEmployees responsibility.CA companys scale（規(guī)模）.DEmployees motivation.第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項26（30分）When you are living a fully-scheduled life, every minute count
