Section A.there are threepassages followed by a total of 15 multiple choice questions.In Section B,there is one passage followed by a total of 5 short-answer questions.Read thepassages and then mark or write down your answers on the Answer Sheet.Section A Multiple-Choice Questions(20%)Passage 1Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:The timber rattlesnake,once widespread throughout the eastern UnitedStates,is now on the endangered species list and is extinct in two easternstates in which it once thrived.Compared to its western cousins,the Timberrattlesnake may be especially vulnerable because of certain behaviors adaptedfor coping with the cold climate in which it lives.Rattlesnakes are generally found in warm climates because,like all reptiles,they cannot generate or regulate their own body temperature internally andmust rely on the suns warmth for heat.But Timber rattlesnakes migrated intocolder northern areas about 8,000 years ago when glaciers retreated.In thesenorthern regions,the snakes developed a number of adaptive strategies tosurvive,but ultimately these behaviors make them more vulnerable to humanpredation,their main threat.One survival strategy the snakes have developed is hibernation.Forapproximately eight months of the year,the rattlers remain motionless indeep frost-free crevices,with their body temperature dropping as low as 40degrees.In the spring when they emerge,they must warm their chilled bodiesby sunning themselves for three or four days on rocks in the open.Thisbehavior,coupled with the fact that Timber rattlesnakes tend to concentrate inlarge numbers at their wintering sites,makes them easy prey.Gestatingfemales are particularly vulnerable because they spend much of their timebasking(取暖)in the sun in order to produce live young from eggs.Inaddition,females have very long interbirth intervals,producing live youngonly every three to five years.If frost or cold spell comes late in the year,theentire litter of six to twelve young may die.Efforts are under way to protect the Timber rattlesnake and its habitat fromfurther human depredation,but in many states it is already too late.31.What is the main topic of the passage?A.Why Timber rattlesnakes hibernate.B.How Timber rattlesnakes are surviving.C.How Timber rattlesnakes adapted to northern climates.D.Why Timber rattlesnakes are endangered.32.Which of the following is true about Timber rattlesnakes?A.They migrated to eastern sidles.B.They migrated northward during a warming period.C.They migrated to escape a cold climate.D.They migrated to the South to seek a warmer climate.33.In which of the following places might a person be most likely to findTimber rattlesnakes in the spring?A.in the woodsB.in the meadowsC.in bushy areasD.in canyons34.According to the passage,which of the following does NOT contribute tothe rattle snake being an endangered animal?A.hibernating for eight monthsB.basking in the sunC.congregating togetherD.having long intervals between births35.What is the authors tone attitude toward the topic?A.accusativeB.nostalgicC.regretfulD.humorous【答案与解析】31.D 文章第一段和第二段的重点都在于“the Timber rattlesnake may beespecially vulnerable because of certain behaviors adapted for coping withthe cold climate”，第三段则是对这些行为举一例进行进一步的说明，最后一段为总结。由此可知文章的重点在于响尾蛇变得易受伤害的原因，即濒临灭绝的原因，故选D。32.B 文章第二段提到“Timber rattlesnakes migrated into colder northernareas about 8,000 years ago when glaciers retreated.”，由此可知响尾蛇在冰川消退、即气温变暖时期向北边更寒冷的区域迁徙，故选B。33.D 文章第三段提到“In the spring when they emerge,they must warmtheir chilled bodies by sunning themselves for three or four days on rocks inthe open.”，由此可知响尾蛇春天为了取暖会出现开阔的岩石旁，故选D。34.A B、C、D三项文章第三段中皆有提及，故选A。35.C 文章最后一段提到“it is already too late”。由此可知作者认为虽然人们已做出努力挽救濒临灭亡的响尾蛇，但为时已晚，语气中表露了遗憾之情，故选C。Passage 2Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:As heart disease continues to be the number-one killer in the United States,researchers have become increasingly interested in identifying the potentialrisk factors that trigger heart attacks.High-fat diets and life in the fast trackhave long been known to contribute to the high incidence of heart failure.Butaccording to new studies,the list of risk factors may be significantly longerand quite surprising.Heart failure,for example,appears to have seasonal and temporal patterns.Ahigher percentage of heart attacks occur in cold weather,and more peopleexperience heart failure on Monday than on any other day of the week.Inaddition,people are more susceptible to heart attacks in the first few hoursafter waking.Cardiologists first observed this morning phenomenon in themid-1980s,and have since discovered a number of possible causes.An early-morning rise in blood pressure,heart rate,and concentration of heartstimulating hormones,plus a reduction of blood flow to the heart,may allcontribute to the higher incidence of heart attacks between the hours of 8:00AM and 10:00 AM.In other studies,both birthdays and bachelorhood have been implicated asrisk factors.Statistics reveal that heart attack rates increase significantly forboth females and males in the few days immediately preceding and followingtheir birthdays.And unmarried men are more at risk for heart attacks thantheir married counterparts.Though stress is thought to be linked in some wayto all of the aforementioned risk factors,intense research continues in thehope of further comprehending why and how heart failure is triggered.36.What does the passage mainly discuss?A.risk factors in heart attacksB.seasonal and temporal patterns of heart attacksC.cardiology in the 1980sD.diet and stress as Factors in heart attacks37.What do the second and third paragraphs of the passage mainly discuss?A.the link between heart attacks and marriageB.unusual risk factors in heart attacksC.age and gender factors in heart attacksD.myths about lifestyle and heart attacks38.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT a possible causeof many heart attacks?A.decreased blood flow to the heartB.increased blood pressureC.lower heart rateD.increase in hormones39.Which of the following is NOT cited as a possible risk factor?A.having a birthdayB.getting marriedC.eating fatty foodsD.being under stress40.Which of the following does the passage infer?A.We now fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks.B.We recently began to study how risk factors trigger heart attacks.C.We have not identified many risk factors associated with heart attacks.D.We do not fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks.【答案与解析】36.A
