Here are the top four oldest animal species on Earth.Horseshoe Crabs-445 million years oldHorseshoe crabs appeared on Earth 445 million years ago. They live in shallow ocean waters across the world. Horseshoe crabs have a long tail. They have nine eyes in total, found throughout the body. Out of the nine, two large eyes are mainly used by horseshoe crabs and the others are used to control their movements.Nautiluses-500 million years oldThe nautilus is a kind of shellfish living in the sea that existed 500 million years ago. That is long before dinosaurs appeared on Earth. It is said to be the only surviving member of a large group of shellfish. Nautiluses live at a depth of 2,200 feet in the ocean.Jellyfish(水母)-550 million years oldJellyfish with an umbrella-like head can be found in every ocean in the world. They have no brain or nervous system. Jellyfish are found in different shapes and colours. The 90 percent of their body weight is water. They are also known to eat other jellyfish. The box jellyfish is the most dangerous species of jellyfish on Earth.Sponges-580 million years oldSponges are a special kind of creature living in the sea that looks like a plant. They appeared in the world's oceans580 million years ago. There are about 5000 different species of sponges in the world. They live at different depths in the oceans.Sponges don’t have arms or heads. They have a special power to grow back a lost body part and a new sponge will grow from the old one. The bodies of sponges contain many channels, which become a shelter for many small species. 21. How many eyes does a horseshoe crab have?A. One.        B. Two.        C. Seven.           D. Nine. 22. What is the similarity between nautiluses and sponges? A. Both have long tails.B. Neither of them has a head.C. Both can only live in the deep sea.D. Both existed before dinosaurs appeared on Earth.23. What do we know about jellyfish from the text?A. They can be found in most rivers. B. Their body is mostly water. C. Their head looks like a plant. D. They don't have arms or heads. BWhen “Rise of the Planet of the Apes’’ was first shown to the public last month, a group of excited animal activists gathered on Hollywood Boulevard. But they weren’t there to throw red paint on fur-coat-wearing film stars. Instead, one activist, dressed in a full-body monkey suit, had arrived with a sign praising the filmmakers: ’’Thanks for not using real apes(猿 )!”The creative team behind “Apes” used motion-capture(动作捕捉)technology to create digitalized animals, spending tens of millions of dollars on technology that records an actor’s performance and later processes it with computer graphics to create a final image(图像).In this case, one of a realistic looking ape.Yet “Apes" is more exception than the rule. In fact, Hollywood has been hot on live animals lately. One nonprofit organization, which monitors the treatment of animals is filmed entertainment, is keeping tabs on more than2,000 productions this year. Already, a number of films including “Water for Elephants”, “The Hangover Part ⅡI” and “Zookeeper”, have drawn the anger of activists who say the creatures acting in them haven’t been treated properly.In some cases, it’s not so much the treatment of the animals on set in the studio that has activists worried; it’s the off-set training and living conditions that are raising concerns. And there are questions about the films made outside the States, which sometimes are not monitored as closely as productions filmed in the States. 24.Why did the animal activists gather on Hollywood Boulevard? A. To see famous film stars. B. To oppose wearing fur coats.C. To raise money for animal protection.D. To express thanks to some filmmakers.25. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A. The cost of making “Apes”. B. The creation of digitalized apes. C. The publicity about “Apes”. D. The performance of real apes.26. What does the underlined phrase “keeping tabs on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Listing completely.B. Directing professionally. C. Promoting successfully. D. Watching carefully.27. What can we infer from the last paragraph about animal actors?A. They may be badly treated.B. They should take further trainingC. They could be traded illegally. D. They would lose popularity. CSome caterpillars warning signals(信号)may have evolved(进化)from walking.  A team, writing in the journal Nature Communications, reported that the hair-like structures the living things use to make sounds evolved from legs.The team studied caterpillars which use these structures to communicate their ownership of leaves. This means the caterpillars are able to “tell” strangers to go away without risking injury in fighting. “These are really interesting caterpillars,” said Dr. Jayne Yack from Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, who led the research.“They make signals using hair-like structures which are on their back ends.”The caterpillars drag these structures across the leaf to make scraping(刺耳的)sounds when strangers enter the area of their leaves.“When they make this signal, the strangers leave," explained Dr. Yack.“It’s like saying ’I’m here, get out of here-I already own this leaf’.”The scientists looked at other species within the same group of caterpillars and created their “family tree”. They used chemical markers(标记物)to work out the relationship between the animals, showing which in the group were the more ancient species and which species evolved more recently “Those more ancient species actually don’t have these sound-producing structures. They have legs that they use to walk towards strangers,” said Dr. Yack. These more ancient species, she explained, walk towards strangers and try to fight against them. "They can kill each other in the fighting,” Dr Yack added. She said that the evolution of the scraping show had allowed the caterpillars to solve their fighting without injury."So our idea is that these signals actually avoid harm to both sides-they solve fighting in a more 'friendly’ way.”The study also provides a map of an evolutionary process that many other biologists are researching. 28. What can we learn about caterpillars’ warning structures from the text?A. They have the same use as hair.B. They are found in caterpillars heads. C. They are used to fight against strangers.D. They may have evolved from caterpillars’ legs.29. According to the text, Dr. Yack’s team did NOT _______ . A. draw a family tree of caterpillarsB. create a map to show how caterpillars evolveC. study species within the same group of caterpillarsD. make clear the relationship between different species of caterpillars30.What does the underlined word “They” in the fourth paragraph refer to? A. The ancient species. B. The chemical markers.C. The sound-producing structures. D. The more recently evolved species.31. What is the main idea of the text?A. How caterpillars evolved.B. How caterpillars warn strangers.C. Communication between caterpillars.D. Caterpillars’ warning signals evolved from walking. DA campaign(活动)is being launched to encourage children to give up 30 minutes of screen time a day to head for the great outdoors.The newly formed Wild Network-a cooperation of nearly 400 organisations-is trying to attract teenagers away from television and computer screens and into fields, woods and parks. Organisers say that it is the UK’s biggest ever campaign to reconnect children with nature and outdoor play, and that it could help improve fitness, mental(精神的) health and general well-being. A documentary film, Project Wild Thing, will announce the launch at more than 50 cinemas across the UK from Friday. It looks at the increasingly weak link between children and nature.Andy Simpson, chairman of the Wild Network, said: “The sad truth is that kids have lost touch with nature. Time spent outdoors is down, activity areas and levels are falling strongly and the ability to identify common species has been lost.”Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include camping or racing and observing autumn colour on trees and so on. From January, the network will aim to make suggestions to politicians on how the government can do more to get children muddy(沾满泥污的)and bright-eyed.This is not the first time the message of less screen, more play has been brought up. Children in the 1980s were asked to do the same by the BBC TV series Why Don’t You, which somewhat confusingly called on its viewers to “switch off your TV set, and do something less boring instead”. 32. The purpose of the campaign is to call on kids ______ .A. to love animals B. to play outdoors C. to give up screens D. to protect nature33. What may make Andy Simpson sad?A. Kids disability to name some creatures.B. The falling duration of kids’ vacations.C. Strict rules on kids’ outdoor activities. D. The disappearance of common species.34. What does the network appeal to the government to do?A. Reconnect kids with nature. B. Provide kids with more mud.C. Take measures to protect kids.D. Pay attention to eye protection.35. Why does the author mention the BBC TV series?A. To tell the development of BBC TV series. B. To prove the recognition of his suggestion. C. To show the TV series caused confusion. D. To compare present TV series with old ones. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Earth Day is coming in a week. Are you wondering what to do for Earth Day this year? Here are some suggestions.Ask your parents to leave their cars at home. Cars, being the greatest source(来源)of air pollution, can be left at home this weekend.    36    Other greener options are carpooling, riding a bike or walking if you want a healthier option.Be a little dirty. No, we don’t mean it that “way”.    37    Yes, saving water is extremely important. A day or two without a bath won’t harm you, but it will certainly do a lot of good for our planet. A daily shower isn’t a matter of health; it’s a matter of comfort. Showering every day can wash away the natural oils that our skin and hair need.Volunteer yourself.    38    If you have the time, there are lots of opportunities out there to make contributions, for example, planting trees, cleaning a park or simply coming up with ways you can preserve(保护)mother Earth._39_ This is one of the most common things that people do whenever Earth Day rolls around, that is, switch off their lights. However, this is not something you should do just for a day and for only an hour.    40__   The future of our planet is in your hands!  A. Every step counts. B. Green-up your home.C. This is one of the best things you can do.D. We simply mean to say, don’t take a bath every day. E. Join other like-minded people in a common task. F. Travelling by public transport is the better option.G. Save energy by switching off all electricity points whenever they aren't in use. 第二部分　语言运用(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Having waited nearly an hour in the pouring rain, my friend and I managed to catch the airport bus.

The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, “I want to tell you a story. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy's high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.’’“That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a200-acre dream ranch.”“He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, 'See me after class.’”“The boy with the dream went to see that teacher after class and asked, 'Why did I receive an F?’The teacher said, 'This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you'll have to pay large stud fees. There's no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ' if you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade. ’” 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Monty then turned to the group and said,_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
