BI've come back to check on a baby. Just after dusk I'm in a car down a muddy road in the rain, past rows of shackled (戴镣的) elephants, their trunks swinging. I was here five hours before, when the sun was high and hot and tourists were on elephants’ backs.Walking now, I can barely see the path in the glow of my phone’s flashlight. When the wooden fence post stops me short, I point my light down and follow a current of rainwater across the concrete floor until it washes up against three large, gray feet. A fourth foot twisted above the surface, tied tightly by a short chain and choked by ring of metal spikes(尖刺). When the elephant tires and puts her foot down, the spikes press deeper into her ankle. Meena is four years and two months old, still a child as elephants go. Khammon Kongkhaw, her caretaker, told me earlier that Meena wears the spiked chain because she tends to kick. Kongkhaw has been responsible for Meena here at Mactaman Elephant Adventure, near Chiang Mai, in northern Thailand, since she was 11 months old. He said he keeps her on the spiked chain only during the day and takes it off at night. But it's night now. I ask Jin Laoshen, the Mactaman worker accompanying me on this nighttime visit, why her chain is still on. He says he doesn’t know.Mactaman is one of many animal attractions in and around tourist-crowded Chiang Mai. Meena's life is set to follow the same track as many of the roughly 3,800 captive(被捕获的) elephants in Thailand. When Meena is too old or sick to give rides -- maybe at 55, maybe at 75 she’ll die. If she’s lucky, She will get a few years of retirement. She'll spend most of her life on a chain. 24. Why does the author decide to come back? A. She knows a baby is in need of help urgently.B. She wants to feed those shackled elephants.C. She wants to release those shackled elephants D. She wants to check baby elephant Meena.25. What can we conclude from the second paragraph? A. The author is scared of walking in the path. B. Meena only has three healthy legs. C. Meena is treated badly and very painful. D. One of Meena's legs is badly broken. 26. What's the author’s attitude towards those elephants? A. Indifferent B. Critical C. Sympathetic D. Negative 27. We can infer that the purpose of the author’s writing is ___________.A. to appeal to people to care about the fate of those elephants B. to describe those elephants to attract tourists around the world C. to tell readers the story of a baby elephant in Chiang Mai, Thailand D. to tell the reason why the number of elephants is decreasingCLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly connected groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nationstate and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution(分布) of these languages is hugely uneven（不均匀的）. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the America about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea（巴布亚新几内亚） alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction, with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a questionmark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28．What can we infer about languages in huntergatherer times?A. They developed very fast. B. They were closely connected.C. They had similar patterns. D. They were large in number.29．Which of the following best explains “dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?A. Powerful. B. Advanced. C. Complex. D. Modern.30．How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A. About 6,800. B. About 2,400. C. About 3,400. D. About 1,200.31．What is the main idea of the text?A. New languages will be created. B. Human development results in fewer languages.C. People's lifestyles are reflected in languages. D. Geography determines language evolution.DA team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat house fly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It's extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components（组件）”, said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own. "he said. They engineered（策划） a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically, it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics（飞行力学） and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.”32. Which of the following statements was the difficulty engineers met with while making the robotic fly? A. They did not have adequate fund. B. No ready-made components were available.C. There was no model in their mind. D. It was hard for them to fit the components together.33. What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4? A. The robotic fly has been put into wide application. B. The robotic fly consists of a flight device and a control system. C. Information from many sources can be collected by the robotic fly. D. The robotic fly can just fly in limited areas at present.34. Which of the following can be learned from the passage? A. Wood's design can replace animals in some experiments. B. Animals are not allowed in biological experiments. C. The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects. D. There used to be few ways to study how insects fly. 35. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A. The Development of the Robotic Fly B. The Robotic Fly Promotes Engineering Science C. Harvard's Efforts in Making a Robotic Fly D. The Robotic Fly Imitates a Real Life Insect第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。There is no need to say again in business psychology that high self-confidence is key to career success. Actually I think low self-confidence is more likely to make you successful. Sure, extremely low confidence is not helpful. It prevents performance by including fear, worry, and stress, which may drive people to give up sooner or later. 36 . If your confidence is low, rather than extremely low, you stand a better chance of succeeding than if you have high self-confidence. 37 . Therefore, you will be self-critical. Most people get trapped in their optimistic prejudice, so they tend to listen to positive feedback（反馈）and ignore negative feedback. Although this may help them come across as being confident to others, in any area of competition an achievement is 10% performance and 90% preparation. 38 .Lower self-confidence can get you to work harder and prepare more. If you are careful about your goals, you will work harder when you lack confidence in your abilities. 39 , low confidence is negative. If you really want to do what you want, your low confidence will only make you work harder to achieve it because it will make you know the distance to the goals. Lower self-confidence reduces the possibilities of pride and disappointment. 40 , they are more likely to admit mistakes instead of blaming others. This is the most important benefit of low self-confidence because it points to the fact that low self-confidence can bring success, not just to individuals but also to organizations and society. A. Actually when you are careless about your goals B. Lower self-confidence makes you focus on negative feedback C. So low confidence can only prevent you from succeeding D. Thus, the more you know weaknesses, the better prepared you will be E. But appropriate low confidence helps you adjust your goals to complete F. Indeed, if people have low self-confidence G. Then if you care about your inability very much第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 （共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Some years ago, when Pat Thorn asked her husband Frank what he was going to do when he retired, he replied: “ I’m going to volunteer with UNICEF (United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund).” After 41 , Frank was true to his word, and he and Pat toured schools and organizations around Britain as he gave talks about UNICEF.
