            • 1. In the depths of the French Guianese rainforest,there still remain unusual groups of indigenous(土著的) people.Surprisingly,these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.And yet,people in this area are in fact French citizens because it has been a colony(殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946.In theory,they should live by the French law is often ignored or unknown,thus making them into an interesting area of“lawlessness”in the world.
              The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the effects of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin.Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area,which sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest,with half its population of only 250,000living in its capital,Cayenne.
              “I have a special love for the French Guianese people.I have worked there on and off for almost ten years,”says Gin.“I’ve been able to keep firm friendships with them.Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment.I don’t see it as a lawless land.But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”
              “I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life,”continues Gin.“I prefer to work in black and white,which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.”
              His black-and-white pictures present a world almost lost in time.These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for.These local citizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic,which brings with it not only necessary state welfare,but also alcoholism,betrayal and even suicide.

              28.Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana?    
              A.They seldom follow the French law.
              B.They often ignore the Guianese law.
              C.They are separated from the modern world.
              D.They are both Guianese and French citizens.
              29.Gin introduced the special world of the indigenous Guianese as    
              A.a tour guide
              B.a geographer
              C.a film director
              D.a photographer

            • 4. In 1985,a lionfish was caught off the coast of Florida.Now they can be found not only in the Atlantic Ocean but also in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.And they are continuing to move south.Lionfish are native to the Indian and western Pacific Oceans.So how did they end up in the Atlantic?Scientists believe some pet owners abandoned their unwanted lionfish and poured them into the sea.Little did they know the trouble their actions would cause.
                     The Atlantic Ocean turned out to be a comfortable home for lionfish.Their venomous spines (毒刺) prot ect them from sharks and other fish.Female lionfish can spawn (产卵) every few days,producing as many as 2 million eggs per year.Other big fish would have competed with lionfish for food.But overfishing has removed many of these large fish.As a result,the fish have eaten so much that they have grown to be more than three times the size of their cousins in the Pacific and Indian Oceans."They eat mostly fish,"says Stephanie Green,a scientist at Oregon State University.
                     All that eating has caused great changes.Scientists have found that when lionfish are present somewhere,many other fish,which are small enough for them to eat,disappear.Some of the fish they eat are greatly missed in their habitats.For example,parrotfish eat certain plants off corals (珊瑚),which allows corals to grow better.But they are now disappearing due to lionfish.
                     Scientists say lionfish are here to stay.But there are ways to deal with the problem.The key,says Green,is to keep lionfish numbers in check.In Florida,divers can now go through a special training program and get certified (授予合格证书) to catch lionfish in areas where fishing is not usually allowed.And a number of restaurants have added the fish to the menu."It's going to be a long-term battle,but the missing sea species will come back someday,"says Green.
              25.What can we learn about lionfish?    
              A.Most of them have gathered in the Atlantic.
              B.All of them are almost the same size.
              C.They eat other big fish and even sharks.
              D.Its population is growing very quickly.

              B.harmfulness
              C.weakness                        
              D.carelessness
              27.What is Stephanie Green's attitude towards the battle against lionfish?    
              A.She doubts it.
              B.She is worried about it.
              C.She is hopeful of it.
              D.She thinks it is against the law.
            • 5. One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest,the next,the air was charged with tension.The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed.I urged the elephant deeper into the forest.We sounded like a forest fire-crackling,snapping,trailblazing.But through all the noise came a sharp wanting cry.The elephant stopped and we heard it again-the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.
              I looked quickly mound the shadows of the forest.Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches,beneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadow-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive.Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant's stomach,the forest wins silent.
              Gradually,the tension slipped from our bodies.The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth.I roached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant's neck; there was a soft part,free of wrinkles and hairs,behind her ear.
              This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett,although I saw no tigers in the end.Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains,Corbett is home to about 135Bengal tigers,but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts( 出没处),a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity.Still,I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear.If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger,I could have gone to a zoo.After all,spotting tigers mealy confirms their beauty; backing them can make you aware of something more.
              48.Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?    
              A.The elephant stopped.
              B.A spotted deer called.
              C.The elephant seized a branch.
              D.The forest was silent for a while.
              49.The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by    
              A.describing various sounds
              B.comparing different animals
              C.listing different activities
              D.introducing various plants
              50.What does the underlined part“to sense the aura“most probably mean?    
              A.To see the diversity.
              B.To enjoy the scenery.
              C.To feel the atmosphere.
              D.To experience the freedom.
              51.How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?    
              A.Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.
              B.It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.
              C.It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.
              D.The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.
            • 6. Did anyone find that the names of"Great Britain","the United Kingdom","England"and"the British commonwealth"have the same meaning?Strictly speaking,these names all refer to something different.None of them are exactly the same as any of the others.
              The British isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well,which you can see on the map.Great Britain,or Britain,refers to the larger of the two main islands.But the word"Britain"is often used as a short form for the United Kingdom or you call it the UK.
              Now as for England,it refers simply to the largest of the three countries on the island of Great Britain.The United Kingdom is the name of the state and the official name of the country,which many people popularly refer to England.
                Finally,the Britain commonwealth is the usual name for what is left of the British Empire.This change shows the weakening of the British Empire and the rising of the national liberation movements throughout the world today.
              36.According to the passage,we know that    
              A.Great Britain has the same meaning as Britain
              B.the United Kingdom has the same meaning as Britain or England
              C.all the names in the first paragraph have the same meaning
              D.all the names refer to England
              37.It is clear that the British isles refer to    
              A.Britain,England and the UK.
              B.the two main islands and thousands of small ones
              C.three countries and several islands
              D.Great Britain or the United Kingdom
              38.If you want to write to someone in Edinburgh that lies in Scotland,you should write the address as    
              A.Edinburgh,England

              C.Scotland,Edinburgh,England            
              D.Great Britain,Scotland,Edinburgh.
            • 7. The Republic of Vanuatu is an island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean.It was one of the poorest nations in the region.Within the last five years,however,it has become a hot spot for adventure travelers.In 2006 it was voted the happiest place on Earth.The reason is not that Vanuatu are the richest but that Vanuatu has white-sand islands,clear waters,the world's most accessible live volcano,great diving and food that grows faster than it can be picked.
              With a population of about 221,000,Vanuatu has 113 languages,which is a result of 3,000 years of immigration from many Pacific countries.There are three official languages:English,French,and Bislama.Bislama developed from South Pacific English,a simplified language that traders and other foreigners used it to communicate with speakers of the many local languages.
              Most of the islands are mountainous and of volcanic origin.There are several active volcanoes in Vanuatu,including Yasur on the island of Tanna,one of the world's most accessible volcanoes.If you've ever fancied getting close to a volcano,here's your chance.
              Vanuatu Post's Underwater Post Office has quickly become one of the busiest post offices for postcards in the world!Visitors from around the world want to experience the world's first underwater post office.The Post Office is only 50 meters offshore and at just three meters below the surface,very appealing to the young and young at heart.Since opening in 2003,the underwater post office has received about 100,000 visitors.They have posted one of the waterproof(防水的)postcards available in Vanuatu; these cards are collected regularly by one of Vanuatu Post's four trained divers.The underwater branch is manned daily for usually about an hour,longer with demand.

            • 8. Friday,December 30,2011 has been cut for the tiny South Pacific island nation,Samoa as it moved its time zone 24 hours ahead to catch up with Asia,New Zealand and Australia. On New Year's Eve,Samoa will Slave jumped to the west of the international dateline,which runs through the Pacific Ocean and broadly follows the 180 degree line of longitude (经线).
              Its Prime Minister said it would make it easier for Samoa to trade with their key partners."No longer shall we have people ringing us up on Monday from New Zealand and Australia thinking it is Monday when we are closing our eyes and praying at churches.And in the same way,on our Fridays when we ring up and already our contacts are holidaying on their Saturdays,"he told Radio New Zealand on Friday.
              To help win public support,the government declared employers must still pay workers for the missing Friday,although banks will not be allowed to charge interest for the lost day.
              Countries are free to choose whether the dateline passes to the east or west,and Samoa's decision means all new maps will need to change.But some tourism operators are worried Samoa will lose business by losing its position as the last place on earth to see the sunset each day,although it is now one of the first places to see in each new day.
              Samoa,a country of about 180,000 people,used to be in the same time zone as New Zealand and Australia,but went back a day in 1892,celebrating July 4 twice and aligning itself with the United States.The date change is not the first major change in Samoa in recent years.In 2009,the country switched to driving on the left hand side of the road from the right hand side,in line with New Zealand and Australia.
              71.Samoa moved its time zone 24 hours ahead to       
                 A.trade with the United States
                  B.be the first place to see in each new day
                  C.follow the international dateline
                  D.be in the same time zone as Australia
              72.Which of the following is true according to the text?    
              A.It's Monday now in Samoa while it is Sunday in America.
                  B.Samoa once had a date change about 200 years ago.
                  C.Samoa and America are now in the same time zone.
                  D.In Samoa,cars move on the right hand side of the road.
              73.On the missing Friday,___ in Samoa,    
                  A.banks still charged interest      B.all the people had a day off
                  C.workers still got paid            D.all celebrated New Year's Eve
              74.The underlined word"aligning"in the last paragraph possibly means

            • 9. Every culture has it own ways to show friendship.On the island of Hawaii,friendship is part of the"aloha spirit".In the language of the Hawaiians who first settled the islands long ago,aloha had a very special meaning.That is"to be with happiness".
              Hawaiians believe that once somebody loves the land,they are ready to love their people or community.This is the second most important thing of friendship.It is called lokahi in the Hawaiian language,which means"oneness with all people".To enjoy the land you should not be selfish.The land is for everyone who lives on.Today many different people call Hawaii their home.Indeed,Hawaii is a place where people make one big community from many smaller communities.Each person gives kokua(help) to other people so that all feel stronger.It is believed that the islands can be a paradise(天堂) when people live in peace.People are told that their actions should be as gentle as the wind that blows from the sea.When problems happen,people are asked to solve them with understanding.So when people of Hawaii talk about ohana(family),they are really talking about all those who live on the island.
              Living in peace,Hawaiians have developed a third sign of friendship.This personal friendship is shown by giving leis to one another.The lei,a string of flowers,is put over a friend's neck.Then the friend is given a kiss on the cheek.Visitors to the islands are also given leis.When they hear aloha,visitors began to feel at home.Aloha also means"goodbye",so visitors will hear it again when they leave.It can mean"our hearts singing together".Perhaps this is how most visitors will remember their new friendship.

            • 10. In Singapore,most of us love window-shopping while some others enjoy having a picnic at East Coast Park or Changi Beach on sunny days.Singaporeans are never bothered by the occasional thunderstorm.However,we know that if it rains for long continuous periods,there will be more serious effects.Just recently the main shopping street of Orchard Road was flooded and some part of Bukit Timah was impassable to traffic.People reacted by writing in to the newspaper to complain about this!We forget that other countries suffer much worse effects.Elsewhere,heavy tropical(热带的)storms often result in floods that ruin erops especially in Thailand and Malaysia.This in turn usually means that the price of rice and vegetables here in Singapore will rise because we import these products from them.If there is a typhoon or tsunami,thousands of lives are lost too.This happened in Indonesia and Phuket in Thailand in 2004 and it serves to remind us of how Mother Nature can cause great damage.
              Weather patterns in general have changed dramatically in recent years.Scientists believe that global warming and the resulting melting of the polar ice-cap has caused the level of the ocean to rise.This in turn causes flooding of low-lying areas in countries where the land is rather flat and some parts of which is below water level.It is believed that human activities have caused Mother Nature to show her extreme anger,so it is now important that we really work together to cut down on harmful activities,for example,illegal logging(伐木)or irresponsible forest-burning to clear land for farming.
