A．Feeling guilty for killing dolphins． B．Protecting themselves a gainst criticism． C．Attacking those against dolphin-killing． D．Making the determination to change． 30．What can we infer from the passage? A．Many people in Japan have seen The Cove in the cinema． B．The Cove has not influenced Japan’s international image． C．Taiji’s dolphin-killing industry has been seriously damaged． D．The Cove has brought international attention to dolphin-killing． B Nearly all of today’s Native Americans in North, Central and South America can trace their ancestry to just six women whose descendants（后裔）immigrated around 20,000 years ago, a DNA study suggests． The finding does not mean that only these six women gave rise to migrants who crossed into North America from Asia in the earliest population of the continent．Rather, it suggests that only six left a particular DNA legacy that persists to today in about 95% of Native Americans, said study co-author Ugo Perego in Utah． “The women did not necessarily arrive together, nor even all live at the same time,” he said．Results indicate the women arrived sometime between 18,000 and 21,000 years ago． The work was published this week by the journal PLoS One．Perego is from the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation in Salt Lake City and the University of Pavia in Italy．The work confirms the previous indications of just six maternal（母系的）lineages, as well as a date of around 20,000 years ago when the first people in North America arrived after crossing a land bridge from Asia, Perego said． The researchers studied mitochondrial （线粒体） DNA, which is passed only from mother to daughter．They created a “family tree” that traces the different DNA lineages found in today’s Native Americans．By noting mutations（突变）in each branch and applying a formula for how often such mutations arise, they calculated how old each branch was．That indicated when each branch arose in a single woman． The six “founding mothers” obviously did not live in Asia because the DNA signatures they left behind are not found there, Perego said．So they probably lived in Beringia, the now-submerged land bridge that stretched to North America, he said． 31．What is the passage mainly about? A．A study indicates that women arrived in America around 20,000 years ago． B．A study indicates six women gave rise to migrants of America． C．A DNA study tells about people who crossed into North America from Asia． D．A study indicates Native Americans can trace their ancestry to just six women． 32．Which of the following is TRUE about the research? A．It shows that DNA is passed from parents to daughters． B．It concludes that the six women arrived individually but lived at the same time． C．It is a joint o ne conducted by Salt Lake City and an Italian university． D．It shows that only six women in 95% of present Native Americans have got a particular DNA legacy． 33．Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “lineages”? A．Classes．  B．Varieties．  C．Families．  D．Findings． 34．What didn’t Ugo Perego and his team do? A．They used a “family tree” to analyze the findings． B．They focused on life styles of the original women． C．They clarified genetic changes in the family tree． D．They studied how long each branch had developed． 35．What can we infer from the finding? A．The six mothers probably lived on the present islands in North America． B．Most Native Americans have got the DNA legacy passed from the six women． C．Beringian DNA was found in the women who originally immigrated to North America． D．The research was not accepted by the previous scientists because of its contradiction． C Everyone knows about straight-A students．We see them frequently in TV situation comedies and in movies like Revenge（报复）of the Nerds．They get high grades, all right, but only by becoming dull laborers, their noses always stuck in a book．They are not good at social communication and look clumsy while doing sports．[来源:学_科_网] How, then, do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres? Roman is on the tennis team at Fairmont Senior High School．She also sings in the choral group, serves on the student council and is a member of the mathematics society．For two years she has maintained A’s in every subject．Melendres, a freshman at the University of New Mexico, was student-body president at Valley High School in Albuquerque．He played soccer and basketball well, exhibited at the science fair, and meanwhile worked as a reporter on a local television station．Being a speech giver at the graduation ceremony, he achieved straight A’s in his regular classes, plus bonus points for A’s in two college-level courses． How do super-achievers like Roman and Melendres do it? Brains aren’t the only answer．“Top grades don’t always go to the brightest students, ” declares Herbert Walberg, a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, who has conducted major studies on super-achieving students．“Knowing how to make the most of your innate（天生的）abilities counts for more．Much more．” In fact, Walberg says, students with high IQ sometimes don’t do as well as classmates with lower IQ．For them, learning comes too easily and they never find out how to get down． Hard work isn’t the whole story, either．“It’s not how long you sit there with the books open, ” said one of the many-A students we interviewed．“It’s what you do while you’re sitting．” Indeed, some of these students actually put in fewer hours of homework time than their lower-scoring classmates． The kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can readily learn． 36．The underlined word “nerds” can probably be     ． A．dull bookworms lacking sports and social skills B．successful top students popular with their peers C．students with certain learning difficulties D．born leaders crazy about social activities 37．What can we conclude from the first paragraph? A．Most TV programs and films are about straight-A students． B． People have unfavorable impression on straight-A students． C．Everyone knows about straight-A students from TV or films． D．Straight-A students are well admired by people in the society． 38．Some students become super-achievers mainly because      ． A．they are born cleverer than others B．they work longer hours at study[来源:学§科§网Z§X§X§K] C．they make full use of their abilities D．they know the shortcut to success 39．What will be talked about after the last paragraph? A．The interviews with more students． B．The role IQ plays in learning well． C．The techniques to be better learners．[来源:学|科|网] D．The achievements top students make． 40．What can we infer from the passage? A．IQ is more important than hard work in study． B．The brightest students can never get low grades． C．Top students certainly achieve all-around developments． D．Students with average IQ can become super-achievers． D Back in the fifteenth century, in a tiny village near Nuremberg, lived a family with eighteen children．In spite of the hopeless condition, two of the children, Albrecht Durer and Albert, had a dream．They both wanted to pursue their talent for art．After many long discussions, the two boys finally worked out an agreement．They would toss a coin．The loser would go down into th e nearby mines and, with his earnings, support his brother who attended the acade my．Then, when that brother who won the toss completed his studies, in four years, he would support the other brother at the academy． Tossing a coin, Albrecht Durer won and went off to Nuremberg．Albert went down into the dangerous mines and, for the next four years, supported his brother, whose work at the academy was almost an immediate sensation（轰动）．By the time he graduated, he had earned considerable fees for his outstanding works． When the young artist returned to his village, the Durer family held a festive dinner to celebrate lbrecht’s triumphant（胜利的）homecoming．Albrecht drank a toast to his beloved brother for the years of sacrifice that had enabled him to complete his dream．“And now, Albert, blessed brother of mine, now it is your turn．Now you can go to Nuremberg to look for your dream, and I will take care of you．” Tears streaming down his pale face, Albert sobbed, “No．．．no．．．It is too late for me．Look．．．look at what four years in the mines have done to my hands！The bones in every finger have been broken at least once, and lately I have been suffering from arthritis（关节炎）so badly in my right hand that I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less draw delicate lines with a pen or a brush．” To show thanks to Albert for all that he had sacrificed, Albrecht Durer painstakingly drew his brother’s injured hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skyward．He called his powerful drawing simply “Hands”, but the entire world almost immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and renamed it “The Praying Hands”．The next time you see a copy of that touching creat ion, let it be your reminder—no one ever makes any success alone！ 41．Why did the two brothers work out the agreement？ A．They were so curious as to make a joke． B．Their family couldn’t afford the academy． C．One of the brothers was supposed to go into mines． D．They wanted to support the other sisters and brothers． 42．The underlined word “whose” in Para．2 refers to      ． A．the Durer family’s   B．the miners   C．Albert’s    D．Albrecht’s 43．Which of the following statements is NOT true about Albrecht Durer？ A．He began to earn his living after graduation． B．He did perfectly well at the academy． C．He wanted his brother to go to the academy． D．He created great masterpieces． 44．Which of the following is the correct order of the story？ a．Albrecht went to Nuremberg． b．Albert supported his brother． c．The Durer family held a festive dinner． d．Albrecht drew his brother’s injured hands． e．The brothers tossed a coin．[来源:Z§xx§k.Com] A．b, a, c, d, e     B．a, e, c, d, b     C．e, a, c, b, d    D．e, a, b, c, d 45．What can we learn from the story？ A．One can achieve success simply on his own． B．Any success requires the help of others． C．It’s other people who contribute to one’s success． D．Nobody could succeed without good guidance． 第二节 信息匹配 （共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分） 请阅读下列应用文及相关信息, 并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。 首先请阅读下列电视节目的信息： A．Groovy Movies Tune in every Friday night at 7 p．m．and Sunday at 6 p．m．for fun-filled successful movies that the whole family can enjoy!
