It might never have occurred to him to write me if he had not been in a place where there were no    13    . For him, writing was a necessity. It also turned out to be the best way for us to get back in touch. Because we live in an age of    14    communication, people often forget that they don’t always have to phone or email.

第一节  阅读理解(共20小题; 每小题2分, 满分40分)

（A）

“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move, ” said David Belle, the founder of parkour(跑酷).

Do you love running? It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale? Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond’s wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.

Yes, that’s parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered as an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.

Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.

Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念) behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything. ”

Another philosophy we’ve learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.

The personal computer has overtaken the family dog as man’s best friend, according to a study.

Researchers found that just 6 per cent of us believe that most people rely more on their dog than they do on their PC, while 67 per cent think the opposite to be true.

Even 38 per cent of dog owners admit relying more on their PC than on their dog, although 36 per cent disagree. And 71 per cent of 18 to 24-year-old dog owners said they relied more on their computer.

Paul Allen, editor of Computer Active magazine, which conducted the poll with the Royal Society For The Protection Of Cruelty to Animals, said, “These days you can even take your PC for a walk, provided you have a laptop or tablet PC. ”

“It’s only a matter of time until the first PC that fetches your slippers. ”

Researchers questioned 2, 000 British adults to find out about the change modern technology has brought to their home life.

They found that male dog owners are almost twice as likely as female owners to rely on their computer than a canine companion.

Mr.  Allen said, “With broadband bringing them global news and newspaper sales falling, the family dog even misses out on the pleasure of taking the paper to his owner. ”

But it’s not all bad news for honest dogs.

“The family PC has given dog owners access to a wealth of resources and information that can help with the long-term care that a dog needs, ” Mr.  Allen said.

31. According to the statistics, _______ rely more on their computers.

A. dog owners aged from 18 to 24

B. female dog owners

C. British adults

D. 36% of the people

32. Which of the following is the advantage that computers have brought to dogs?

A. They can go out for a walk with their owners.

B. They can be better looked after.

C. They won’t have to take paper to their owners.

D. They can get on well with their owners.

33. The family dog even misses out on the pleasure of taking the paper to his owner because _______.

A. people gradually lose their interest in newspapers

B. family dogs don’t want to do that any more

C. people don’t want to read newspapers

D. people prefer to use computers for news and information

34. The underlined word“provided” means _______ in the passage.

A. offered        B. supposed

C. as long as       D. even though

35. The purpose of the writer of writing the passage is to tell us _______.

A. more and more people choose to use computers

B. computers have reached every aspect of our life

C. personal computers will replace family dogs as man’s best friends

D. family dogs are not as useful as they used to be

（C）

Kids with type 1 diabetes who spend hours in front of a TV or computer each day may have poorer blood sugar control, a new study suggests.

It’s not clear why the relationship exists, and the findings do not prove that “screen time” itself worsens kids’ diabetes control.

But factors like obesity, exercise habits and family income did not explain the connection, the study found.

Among 296 children, teens and young adults with type 1 diabetes, those who spent four or more hours per day in front of a TV or computer had higher hemoglobin A1C levels—a measure of blood sugar control over the past few months.

On average, their hemoglobin A1C was 9. 3 percent, versus about 8. 5 percent among their peers who spent less time in front of a screen.

Experts recommend that adults keep their A1C levels below 7 percent, while levels in children and teens can go as high as 8. 5 percent, depending on their age.

The goal of reining in blood sugar is to help reduce the risk of long-term diabetes complications (并发症) which range from heart and kidney disease, to nerve damage to vision loss.

Exactly why screen time was connected to blood sugar control in this study is not clear, according to the researchers, led by Dr Angela Galler of Charite-Universitatsmedizin Berlin in Germany.

One possibility, they say, is that kids who spend more time in front of the TV or computer snack more often. So it may be more difficult to control their blood sugar than when they stick with more regular meals.

People with type 1 diabetes have to inject insulin every day, generally timed around meals, to control their blood sugar levels.

But while snacking could be a culprit, this study cannot really prove that screen time is at all to blame for the poorer blood sugar control, according to Dr Sanjeev Mehta, a diabetes specialist who was not involved in the research.

One limitation of the study is that it measured kids’ screen time and their blood sugar control at one time point.

36. What is the passage mainly talking about?

A. Kids with type 1 diabetes like watching TV or sitting in front of a computer.

B. Kids who spent four or more hours per day in front of a TV or computer suffer from type 1 diabetes.

C. Snacking while watching TV or playing in front of a computer develops type 1 diabetes.

D. Screen time may worsen type 1 diabetes in kids.

37. The underlined word “reining” means _______.

A. improving        B. developing

C. control         D. balance

38. Why may kids with type 1 diabetes have poorer blood sugar control according to the study?

A. Because they spend too long time in front of the screen.

B. Because spending long time in front of the screen has direct connection with poorer blood sugar control.

C. Because of the bad habits companied with their screen time.

D. Because of their obesity, exercise habits and family income.

39. We can infer from the passage that _______.

A. kids who spent four or more hours per day in front of a TV or computer may develop type 1 diabetes

B. obesity, exercise habits and family income may contribute to diabetes

C. snacking in front of the TV or computer may cause diabetes

D. teens develop diabetes more easily than adults

40. Dr Sanjeev Mehta believes that _______.

A. the study is believable

B. the study is unbelievable

C. snacking is not to blame for the poorer blood sugar control

D. the measure of kids’ screen time and their blood sugar is limited at one time point

（D）

［2012杭州模拟］

Any discussion of English conversation, like any English conversation, must begin with the weather. And in this spirit of observing traditional rule, I shall quote Dr Johnson’s famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is about the weather”, and point out that this observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago.

This, however, is the point at which most people either stop, or try, and fail, to come up with a convincing explanation for the English “addiction” to the weather. They fail because their premise (前提) is mistaken: they assume that our conversations about the weather are conversations about the weather. In other words, they assume that we talk about the weather because we have a keen interest in the subject. Most of them then try to figure out what it is about the English weather that is so fascinating.

Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that the English weather is not at all fascinating, and that our “addiction” to it is therefore very difficult to explain, “To an outsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it. All those phenomena that elsewhere give nature an edge of excitement, unpredictability and danger—tornados, monsoons, hailstorms—are almost wholly unknown in the British Isles. ”

Jeremy Paxman takes offence at Bryson’s comments and argues that the English weather is truly fascinating:

Bryson misses the point. The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty. . . . one of the few things you can say about England with absolute certainty is that it has a lot of weather. It may not include tropical cyclones but life at the edge of an ocean and the edge of a continent means you can never be entirely sure what you’re going to get.

My research has convinced me that both Bryson and Paxman are missing the point, which is that our conversations about the weather are not really about the weather at all: English weather-speak is a form of code, developed to help us overcome our natural reserve (含蓄) and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows, for example, that “Nice day, isn’t it? ”, “Oh, isn’t it cold? ”; and other variations on the theme are not requests for weather data: they are greetings or conversation-starters. In other words, English weather-speak is a form of “cleaning talk”—the human equivalent of what is known as “social cleaning” among our primate (灵长类的) cousins, where they spend hours cleaning each other’s fur, even when they are perfectly clean, as a means of social connection.

41. According to the author, most people’s explanations for the English love for weather talk are _______.

A. scientific        B. incorrect

C. fascinating        D. accurate

42. As is stated in the passage, most people try to find out _______.

A. why the English weather is so unique

B. whether the English enjoy their weather

C. why the English are so interested in the topic of weather

D. whether the English really talk about weather when they do so

43. In Bill Bryson’s opinion, the English “addiction” to their weather is _______.

A. understandable       B. convincing

C. respectable        D. unreasonable

44. Disapproving of Bill Bryson’s opinion, Jeremy Paxman argues that _______.

A. the English talk about their weather because it is unpredictable

B. the English don’t talk about weather as often as the outsiders think

C. the English weather can be as exciting as anywhere else’s

D. the English weather talk is merely a form of small talk

45. According to the author, English weather-speak is similar to primates’ social cleaning in that they are both _______.

A. ways of greeting

B. means social connection

C. fascinating topics between people

D. phenomena difficult to understand to outsiders

A. Agra Fort

Near the gardens of the Taj Mahal stands the important 16th-century Mughal monument known as the Red Fort of Agra. This powerful fortress of red sandstone encompasses, within its 2. 5-km-long enclosure walls, the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. It comprises many fairy-tale palaces, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the Diwan-i-Khas; and two very beautiful mosques.

B. Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world, and some Western historians have noted that its architectural beauty has never been surpassed. The Taj Mahal is the most beautiful monument built by the Mughals, the Muslim rulers of India. Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. It was constructed over a period of twenty-two years, employing twenty thousand workers. It was completed in 1648

C. E. at a cost of 32 Million Rupees.

C. Keoladeo National Park

This former duck-hunting reserve of the Maharajas is one of the major wintering areas for large numbers of aquatic birds from Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, China and Siberia. Some 364 species of birds, including the rare Siberian crane, have been recorded in the park.

D. Humayun’s Tomb, Delhi

This tomb, built in 1570, is of particular cultural significance as it was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction of the Taj Mahal. The gardens also contain the red-and-white sandstone and black-and-yellow marble tomb of Humayun’s wife and the tomb of Humayun’s barber.

E. Grand Canyon National Park

The Grand Canyon is perhaps the most awesome sight in the United States—and one of the wonders of the world. Much of the park’s beauty is related to its geology and ecology. Schmidt explores the shape of the land, its plants and animals, and its human history. A fascinating book that everyone visiting the Grand Canyon should read. The Skywalk at Grand Canyon West is really exciting.

F. Sundarbans National Park

The Sundarbans covers 10, 000 sq. km of land and water (more than half of it in India, the rest in Bangladesh) in the Ganges delta. It contains the world’s largest area of mangrove forests.

阅读下面的短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

One morning, a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside a huge window, which overlooked the Tred Avon River. Suddenly she leaned forward and cried out, “There is a goose out there!  ”

We saw the figure of a large Canada goose, very still, its wings folded tight to its sides and its feet frozen to the ice.

Then in the sky, she saw a line of swans. They flew from the top of the sky downward and at last landed on the ice. My friend was on her feet, with one unbelieving hand against her mouth. As the swans surrounded the frozen goose, she feared that the poor goose might be pecked out by those great swan bills.

Unexpectedly, those bills began to work on the ice. The long necks were lifted and curved down (弯下) again and again. They went on for a long time. At last, the goose was free and standing on the ice. And the swans stood nearby watching. Then, as if the goose was crying, “I cannot fly”, four of the swans came down around it. Their powerful bills chipped off the ice stuck in its feathers. Slowly, the goose spread its wings as far as they would go. Seeing the goose could freely move its wings, the swans flew slowly into the sky.

This is a true story. Every time I think of it, I can’t help asking, “If so for birds, why not for man? ”

The passage reminds us to help those who are in trouble and shows us helping others is a good virtue, which one should treasure.

Life is not all roses. No one knows when he or she will be in trouble. The story above reminds me of my personal experience.

There was a time when I performed badly in my maths. It seemed that no matter how hard I tried, I still failed. Upset and disappointed, I fell ill and had to be in hospital for a couple of days. Hearing what had happened to me, Lily, my monitor, came to hospital, helping me with my schoolwork. It was with her aid that I recovered soon and improved myself in maths rapidly. I felt really grateful for what she had done.

From my experience above, I’ve learned that the sincere help between people is of great significance. Only with the care and help of others, can we get out of the difficulties in life and fly again like the goose in the story.
