With his father mostly absent, Tracy and his siblings were largely raised by his mother.

His mother was a hardworking single parent who held down three jobs to support the family. Tracy was often left to his own devices, which included a lot of reading. He read a wide variety of books, including biographies and books on success and personal development. His reading gave him an education that was far beyond his years.

Interactive software that “reads” and analyses footprints left by black rhinos (犀牛)can be used to monitor the movements of the animals in the wild, giving conservationists a new way to keep watch on the endangered species and help keep it safe from poachers (偷猎者), according to a Duke University-led study.

The software, called the Footprint Identification Technique (FIT), uses advanced technology to analyze more than 100 measurements of a rhino's footprint. Because each rhino's footprint is as special as a human fingerprint, the analyzed images can be collected electronically in a global database of previously collected footprint images for matching.

“If you find a match, you can identify the individual animal who left the mark and, by plotting the locations of all the other places where marks have been seen, track its movements without disturbing it or coming into close enough contact with it,” said Zoe Jewell, a professor at Duke University's Nicholas School of the Environment, who co-led the study and is co-creator of FIT.

“It's a cost-effective approach that not only protects the health of the rhino and the human, but also brings a centuries-old tracking skill into the 21st Century,” she said. Jewell and her colleagues are now working with Namibia's Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism to train wildlife conservationists, land managers and local guides how to use FIT.

Namibia is home to an estimated 2,000 black rhinos, or about 90% of the species' total population worldwide. Though legally owned by the government, the animals are distributed geographically on private lands across the country.

The FIT software can also do a survey of footprints throughout the protected area and take measurements from each footprint to estimate the number of rhinos in that area. This can be useful information for calculation resource needs to monitor the animals effectively. This creates an interactive library that anti-poaching patrols(反偷猎巡逻)can use to search for animals at the highest risk, including those whose footprints haven’t been showing up in recent years.

8. What is the purpose of the software?

A. To promote the development of technology.

B. To protect black rhinos from being hunted.

C. To analyze the footprints of illegal poachers.

D. To save endangered species across the world.

9 What’s the advantage of the software?

A. It owns various functions. B. It goes to the market.

C. It is perfectly practical. D. It is more than popular.

10. What does Zoe Jewell say about the approach?

A. It brings the best advantage for the lowest cost.

B. It helps increase the population of black rhinos.

C. It raises people's awareness of the environment.

D. It strengthens the tie between humans and nature.

11. Which of the following best describes the future of rhinos?

A. Optimistic. B. Hopeless. C. Worrying. D. Uncertain.

【答案】8. B    9. C    10. A    11. A

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款新的软件，这款名为FIT 的软件可以用来监控野生动物的活动，同时帮助保护主义者来监视濒危物种，并保护这些濒危物种免受偷猎者的伤害。

【8题详解】

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“The software, called the Footprint Identification Technique (FIT), uses advanced technology to analyze more than 100 measurements of a rhino's footprint. Because each rhino's footprint is as special as a human fingerprint, the analyzed images can be collected electronically in a global database of previously collected footprint images for matching.”（这款名为“足迹识别技术”(FIT)的软件利用先进技术分析了100多种犀牛足迹测量数据。由于每只犀牛的足迹都像人类的指纹一样特殊，所以分析后的图像可以通过电子方式收集到先前收集的足迹图像的全球数据库中进行匹配。）可知，这款软件可以通过采集犀牛的足迹，然后会和先前收集的足迹图像的全球数据库中进行匹配。可推知，这款软件是非常实用的。 故选C。

【10题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段第一句““It's a cost-effective approach that not only protects the health of the rhino and the human, but also brings a centuries-old tracking skill into the 21st Century,” she said.”（她说：“这是一种成本效益高的方法，不仅能保护犀牛和人类的健康，而且能将一种有几个世纪历史的追踪技术带入21世纪。”）可知，认为Zoe Jewell它以最低的成本带来最大的优势。故选A。

【11题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段“Interactive software that “reads” and analyses footprints left by black rhinos (犀牛)can be used to monitor the movements of the animals in the wild, giving conservationists a new way to keep watch on the endangered species and help keep it safe from poachers (偷猎者), according to a Duke University-led study.”（杜克大学领导的一项研究表明，能够“读取”和分析黑犀牛留下的足迹的交互式软件可以用来监控野生动物的活动，给保护主义者提供了一种新的方法来监视濒危物种，并帮助保护它们免受偷猎者的伤害。）最后一段“The FIT software can also do a survey of footprints throughout the protected area and take measurements from each footprint to estimate the number of rhinos in that area. This can be useful information for calculation resource needs to monitor the animals effectively. This creates an interactive library that anti-poaching patrols(反偷猎巡逻)can use to search for animals at the highest risk, including those whose footprints haven’t been showing up in recent years.”（FIT 软件还可以对整个保护区的足迹进行调查，并对每个足迹进行测量，以估计该区域的犀牛数量。这可以为计算资源需求提供有用的信息，有效地监控动物。这就创建了一个互动图书馆，反偷猎巡逻队可以利用这个图书馆搜索处于最高风险的动物，包括那些近年来没有出现足迹的动物。）可知，FIT 软件可以用来监控野生动物的活动，同时帮助保护主义者来监视濒危物种，并保护这些濒危物种免受偷猎者的伤害。通过使用FIT，可以对整个保护区的足迹进行调查，并对每个足迹进行测量，以估计该区域的犀牛数量，因而未来犀牛的数量应该是朝着人们期望的方向发展。故选A。

Homemade biodiesel (生物柴油) helps you speed past the gas station toward fuel independence. Our expert outlines processing used cooking oil in a small DIY plant.

If you're guiding your household toward a more self-sufficient lifestyle, maybe you'd like to add do-it-yourself fuel to your list of goals. Biodiesel can be created from waste vegetable oil or animal fats, which you can collect free from restaurants, or you can grow soybeans (大豆) to press your own oil. Process the oil with a couple of chemicals to produce homemade fuel that can run any device— including pickups, cars, and home heating systems.

First, find a reliable source of raw material. Try sourcing used cooking oil from restaurants, functional food companies. If you're planning to sell your biodiesel, begin by analyzing the available raw material supply, and make plans to size your operation accordingly. Next, build your plant, sized to your raw material supply. A small family operation can fit in the corner of a garage, within the footprint of a single parking space. Allow enough space for a water heater, a tank for storing your incoming feedstock, and a tank for washing your fuel. For starters aim to line up enough feedstock to meet your family's fuel requirements.

If you're collecting used cooking oil from restaurants, expect that 20 percent of the material you gather will be water and bits of fried food. Water is not your friend when making biodiesel, so you'll need to remove it by heating the oil and allowing the contaminants (污染物) to settle to the bottom before you pour the oil of the top. You'll have to make a plan for getting rid of the oily wastewater.

Home biodiesel production is not without risks. Making your own fuel will require great attention to detail and safety. Now you know the basics of how to make biodiesel, but you’ll need to research carefully before you begin production.

12. Where can you get the materials of biodiesel from?

A. Oil plants. B. Varied restaurants.

C. Abandoned garages. D. Local companies.

13. What is the author's attitude to the use of biodiesel?

A. Tolerant.    ` B. Positive. C. Unwilling. D. Opposed.

14. What can we infer about biodiesel production from the last two paragraphs?

A. It needs enough water. B. It goes without any risks.

C. It requires little attention. D. It needs to be improved.

15. What is the text mainly about?

A. Some research on biodiesel. B. An experiment on biodiesel.

C. The importance of biodiesel. D. One way to make biodiesel.

【答案】12. B    13. B    14. D    15. D

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍一种加工废食用油的DIY的方法。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段中“Biodiesel can be created from waste vegetable oil or animal fats, which you can collect free from restaurants, or you can grow soybeans (大豆) to press your own oil. ”（生物柴油可以由废弃的植物油或动物脂肪制成，你可以从餐馆免费收集，或者你可以种植大豆来压出油。）可知，生物柴油的需要的材料可以从餐馆免费收集获得。故选B。

【13题详解】

推理判读题。根据第二段中“Process the oil with a couple of chemicals to produce homemade fuel that can run any device— including pickups, cars, and home heating systems.”（使用几种化学物质处理油，生产的自制燃料，可以运行任何设备( 包括皮卡、汽车和家庭供暖系统)。）可知，作者对于生物柴油的使用是乐观的，积极的。故选B。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Water is not your friend when making biodiesel, so you'll need to remove it by heating the oil and allowing the contaminants (污染物) to settle to the bottom before you pour the oil of the top. ”（制造生物柴油时，水不是你的朋友，所以你需要通过加热油，让污染物沉淀到底部，去除水分，然后再倒入顶部的油。）可知，制造生物柴油时，不需要水，选项A错误；最后一段“Home biodiesel production is not without risks. Making your own fuel will require great attention to detail and safety. Now you know the basics of how to make biodiesel, but you’ll need to research carefully before you begin production.”（家用生物柴油生产并非没有风险。制造自己的燃料需要非常注意细节和安全。现在你知道了如何制造生物柴油的基本知识，但是在开始生产之前你需要仔细研究。）可知，家用生物柴油的生产有一定的风险，选项B错误；制造自己的燃料需要非常注意细节，选项C错误；在开始生产之前你需要仔细研究生产过程，即说明这种方法需要改进。故选D。

【15题详解】

主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段“Homemade biodiesel(生物柴油) helps you speed past the gas station toward fuel independence. Our expert outlines processing used cooking oil in a small DIY plant.”（自制的生物柴油可以帮助你快速通过加油站，实现燃料独立。我们的专家概述了在一家小型 DIY 工厂加工废食用油。）同时结合第三段中描述DIY的过程，可知，本文主要介绍一种加工废食用油的DIY的方法。故选D。

【答案】36. but##while    

37. which    38. known   

39. extremely   

40. to complete   

41. generations   

42. is designed    

43. are    44. its    45. in

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了宣纸的历史渊源及其发展。

【36题详解】

考查连词。句意：世界各地很多人都知道纸是中国古代文明的四大发明之一，但很少有人知道，一千五百多年前，中国古代工匠发明了一种新型的纸，叫做宣纸，主要用于书写和绘画。结合空处前“Many people around the world may know...”及空后“few would know that...”内容可知，空后句子和前文构成转折对比关系，所以空处填连词but或while，故填but/while。

【37题详解】

考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子可知，空处及之后的内容在句中为非限制性定语从句，先行词为a new type of paper，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which，故填which。

【38题详解】

考查非谓语。句意：宣纸最初产于古代宣州府，现在在安徽省被称为泾县。分析可知，was made是句子谓语动词，提示词know“将……称为；把……叫做”是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语Xuan Prefecture之间是被动关系，用过去分词作后置定语；be known as“作为……而闻名”，故填known。

【39题详解】

考查副词。句意：制作宣纸的传统工艺要求极高，需要100多个步骤。修饰形容词demanding用副词extremely，意为“极度，非常”，故填extremely。

【40题详解】

考查不定式。句意：整个过程可能需要长达两年时间才能完成，而且这些技能已经代代相传。固定句式：It takes + 时间+ to do sth.“做某事花了多少时间”，所以空处填不定式to complete，故填to complete。

【41题详解】

考查名词复数。句意同上。结合前文pass down，可知此处指这些技能已经世代相传。for generations“世世代代”，故填generations。

【42题详解】

考查时态和语态。句意：另外，宣纸设计使其能够使用1000多年，并且仍然保持油墨和颜色的清新。空处在句中为谓语，结合前文“Xuan paper is highly water absorbent”可知，时态用一般现在时；句子主语Xuan paper为单数含义，与动词design为动宾关系，所以语态用被动语态，故填is designed。

【43题详解】

考查主谓一致。句意：如今在安徽省泾县，有许多宣纸工厂和作坊，那里仍然有大师级的工匠使用传统技术制造纸张。结合today可知，时态为一般现在时；本句使用了there be结构，系动词和主语many Xuan paper factories一致，用复数are，故填are。

【44题详解】

考查形容词性物主代词。句意：由于其悠久的历史和在中国书画文化中所发挥的重要作用，宣纸于2006年被列入中国第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。根据句意，提示词作定语，用形容词性物主代词修饰名词history，故填its。

【45题详解】

考查介词。句意同上。分析可知，“it has played 　　10　　　the culture of Chinese painting”为定语从句，修饰名词role，短语：play a role in“在……起作用”，所以空处用介词in，故填in。

第二节（满分25分）

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I frequently joke that my family heirlooms (传家宝)are plastic. My parents grew up poor and over the years, as a family we were comfortable but didn’t have a lot of things which would be considered luxuries: jewelry, family vacations, china, fancy cars, etc. My father went on a trip to Italy with my aunts one year and brought my mother a ring. It was her favorite stone. She valued that ring because it was one of the nicest things she ever had and represented my dad’s love for her. Sometimes they quarreled but had a deep love for each other. He died in 1980, aged 53 after a difficult battle with cancer.

She had lost some weight and wore the ring to work on a different finger. During her shift the ring slipped off and she realized it the following day. She was sick about it after having tried to find it with no luck. At the point when I talked to her she was trying to face the fact that she would never see it again. Her voice sounded hollow and weak which I assumed was due to the nature of the conversation. She choked back some tears.

I decided to look for the ring at my mom’s work. She was working at the Burlington Coat Factory Department store at the time in the Youth Dept. The Youth Dept was huge and packed with clothes, toys and tables. It was always a mess even when someone was working in it. I started row by row crawling (爬行) on the floor to see if I could find the ring under al the clothes. As I worked my way through the Youth Dept, I tried not to panic. I was amazed that no one asked me what I was doing. At that time I encountered one of my mom’s co-workers who didn’t understand English very well and tried to explain what I was doing. She didn’t seem to understand but she didn’t try to stop me either.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150词左右；

2请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

When I got to the last row, I still didn’t find the ring.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

That ring meant so much to my mom, so I never gave up.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】      When I got to the last row, I still didn’t find the ring. I stood by a shallow table with some baseball caps on it. I thought that I might put an add in the newspaper although deep in my heart I didn’t feel that there was a good chance that someone would see it. But I didn’t want to give up.My hand was on the edge of the table and I cast my eyes downward in desperation.
     That ring meant so much to my Mom, so I never gave up. The next thing I saw was the ring in the front part of the table. I was astonished and excited. Immediately I called my Mom and now I was choking back tears. I said: “Mom, I found the ring!” She burst into tears and said: “Oh my God, I never thought I was going to see it again. Thank you!” I gave the ring to her. For her, the real value was not about what it cost, it was about meaning in her life.

【解析】
