Half of the world’s population is affected by Asian monsoons（季風）, but monsoons are difficult to predict. American researchers have put together a 700-year record of the rainy seasons, which is expected to provide guidance for experts making weather predictions.
Every year, damp air masses，known as monsoon，produce large amounts of rainfall in India, East Asia, Northern Australia and East Africa. All this wet air is pulled in by a high pressure area over the Indian Ocean and a low pressure area to the south.
According to Edward Cook , a weather expert at Columbia University in New York., the complex nature of the climate systems across Asia makes monsoons hard to predict. In addition, climate records for the area are too recent and not detailed enough to be of much use. Therefore, he and a team of researchers spent more than fifteen years traveling across Asia, looking for trees old enough to provide long-term records. They measured the rings, or circles, inside thousands of ancient trees in more than 300 places.
Rainfall has a direct link to the growth and width of rings on some kinds of trees. The researchers developed a document they are calling a Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas. It shows the effect of monsoons over seven centuries, beginning in the 1300s.
Professor Cook says the tree-ring records show periods of wet and dry weather. “If the monsoon basically fails or is a very weak one, the trees affected by monsoons at that location might put on a very narrow ring. But if the monsoon is very strong, the trees affected by that monsoon might put on a wide ring for that year. So, the wide and narrow ring widths of the chronology that we developed in Asia provide us with a measure of monsoon variability.” With all this information, researchers say they can begin to improve computer climate models for predicting the behavior of monsoons.
“There has been widespread famine and starvation and human dying in the past in large droughts. And on the other hand, if the monsoon is particularly heavy, it can cause extensive flooding.” said Eugene Wahl, a scientist with America’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. “So, to get a sense of what the regional moisture patterns have been, dryness and wetness over such a long period of time in great detail, I would call it a kind of victory for climate science.”
小題1:What’s the passage mainly about？

A．The effects of Asian monsoons.

B．The necessity of weather forecast.

C．The achievements of Edward cook.

D．A breakthrough in monsoon prediction.

小題2:It is difficult for experts to predict Asian monsoons because _______.

A．it is hard to keep long-term climate records.

B．they are formed under complex climate systems.

C．they influence many nations.

D．there is heavy rainfall in Asia.

小題3:What can be inferred from the passage?

A．Long and detailed climate records can offer useful information for monsoon research.

B．The Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas has a monsoon record for about 1,300 years.

C．The trees affected by monsoon grow fast if the monsoon is weak.

D．The rainfall might be low although the monsoon is strong in monsoon-affected areas.

小題4:According to Professor Cook, the rings of the trees _______.

A．determine the regional climate.

B．have a great influence on the regional climate.

C．offer people information about the regional climate.

D．reflect all kinds of regional climate information.

小題5:Which of the following best describes the tone of this passage?

A．Matter-of –fact

B．Pessimistic

C．Humorous

D．Friendly.

小題1:D
小題2:B
小題3:A
小題4:C
小題5:A

試題分析：
因為亞洲季風是在復雜的氣候條件下形成的，所以很難預測。本文介紹了科學家利用樹木的年輪了解歷史上季風的發生規律，以便更好預測未來季風的發生。
小題1:主旨大意題。文章開頭在介紹季風造成的危害后指出季風發生的不確定性導致其難以預測。接下來介紹了科學家通過觀察研究樹木年輪，極為詳細地了解了過去相當長時期內季風的發生規律，應被視為a kind of victory for climate science (氣候科學的勝利)。故D項正確。breakthrough: 突破。
小題2: 細節題。由…the complex nature of the climate systems across Asia makes monsoons hard to predict.可知，亞洲復雜的氣候系統導致季風難以預測。故答案為B。
小題3:推斷題。由最后一段Eugene Wahl的話可以推知。B項數據錯誤，The Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas對于季風的記錄為700年。C、D兩項錯誤明顯。雨水不足時，樹木生長慢而不是快；季風強勁時，降雨量應該大而不是小。故答案為A。
小題4:細節題。由第五段So, the wide and narrow ring widths of the chronology that we developed in Asia provide us with a measure of monsoon variability.一句可知，樹木年輪的寬窄向我們提供了一個衡量季風種類惡尺度。故C項正確。A, B兩項顛倒了因果關系；D項犯了擴大化的錯誤。
小題5:本文可觀敘述了亞洲季風的危害、難以預測性以及科學家們的工作和他們的成果，沒有作者個人的觀點或明顯的個人情感。故答案選A. matter-of-fact: 就事論事的、客觀的。pessimistic: 悲觀的。humorous: 幽默的。friendly: 有好的。

[1] As adolescents(青少年), having a meaningful effect on the world can seem like an impossible task for the simple fact of being kids. Changing the world does not only mean finding a cure for cancer, eliminating poverty, or finding the origin of humanity, but recycling a piece of paper as well. Going Green is a practical way that adolescents can have a real, meaningful influence in the world. There are numerous options of how individuals can change their lifestyles to be more eco-conscious(有生態環保意識的). What follows are three simple ways young adolescents can go green and change the world.
1. Recycle
[2] According to a Wire & Twine online article, 63 million newspapers come out every day and of those 44 million are thrown away; recycling the Sunday newspaper alone we could save half a million trees a week.
[3] The age of technology constantly creates new phones, iPods, or new computers. Many will stand in line for hours if not days to get their hands on the new piece of technology, but what happens with the old ones once they are replaced? Nothing, according to Earth911 about 75% of the old devices sit in the back of a drawer collecting dust. By taking them to the local stores that collect them, they go to poor people which in turn removes them from landfills(垃圾填埋場) where the phones explode because of the lead and lithium-ion(鋰離子) the phones contain.
2. Go vegetarian one day a week
[4] Instead of breaking down the pros and cons(利弊) of the vegetarian lifestyle into a long boring paragraph, here are some astonishing facts on going vegetarian for only one day. According to Noam Mohr, a physicist at the New York University, the United States would save 100 billion gallons of water which is enough to supply all homes in New England for about 4 months.
[5] The United States would save 70 million gallons of gas which is enough to fuel all the cars of Canada and Mexico combined and still have some to spare. The United States could prevent 3 million tons of soil erosion(侵蝕), 4.5 million tons of animal wastes, and about 7 tons of ammonia emissions (氨排放). The Environmental Defense concludes with the most interesting fact: if the entire population gives up one meal of chicken, the amount of carbon dioxide accumulated would be the same amount if more than half a million cars were taken off U.S. roads.
3. 第6題
[6] Most drink bottled water because of the common view that bottled water is healthier than regular tap water; actually, 25% of bottled water comes from regular tap water and all that is done extra is it going through a filter(過濾器). Tap water has higher regulations from the FDA (Food and Drug Administration美國食品藥品管理局) than bottled water does. Companies do not need to list where they got the water from, how they purify the water, or what chemicals their plastic water bottles contain. Plastic bottles do not get recycled 90% of the time which results in 1.5 million tons of plastic in landfills which take thousands of years to rot. Not only are you drinking the same water as that in your house but also paying extra. The average 24-pack of bottled water cost $3.97 at the local Wal-Mart and a reusable water bottle cost between $4.99-$7.99; just imagine how much money could be saved if reusable water bottles replaced plastic water bottles.
[7] Changing the world for a positive has to start somewhere and while it may be hard and at times it may seem as if the small changes that are being done are not affecting the world, keep in mind what Margaret Mead once said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
小題1:What’s the whole passage mainly talked about?

A．Ways to protect environment.	B．Ways to become powerful.
C．The importance of recycling.	D．The importance of saving water.

小題2:What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?

A．Changing the world involves many questions.

B．It’s not easy to change the world.

C．Changing the world is not so difficult.

D．We can actually do everything.

小題3:How much of the daily newspapers are thrown away according to Paragraph 2?

A．About 44%.

B．About 63%.

C．About 70%.

D．About 75%.

小題4: In the article, the writer _____ to tell us the benefits of the vegetarian lifestyle.

A．does a lot of reasoning	B．uses many facts
C．borrows VIPs’ phrases	D．puts forward new ideas

小題5:What’s the benefits of giving up just one day of eating meat according to Paragraph 4 and 5?

A．Much water and gas would be saved.	B．Much land would be spared.
C．More animals would survive.	D．More cars would be on the roads.

小題6:Which of the following can be the subtitle(小標題) of Paragraph 6?

A．Drink healthy water	B．Produce bottled water
C．Give up bottled water	D．Reuse tap water

小題7:Why do many people choose to drink bottled water according to Paragraph 6?

A．They think it’s cheaper.

B．They think it’s healthier.

C．They think it’s more fashionable.

D．They think it’s environmental friendly.

小題8:What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A．We should find a proper time to start action

B．Small changes will make big differences.

C．Personal efforts will not affect the world.

D．A small group of people matters.

For medical students, real experience begins not in a classroom but at a teaching hospital. These doctors in training are guided. But sometimes accidents happen and the students get injured.
For example, they might stick themselves with a needle while treating patients. Such needle sticks are common. But a recent study found that medical students often fail to report them. Failing to report an injury like this can be dangerous if a patient, or a medical worker, has an infectious disease.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, did the study, which involved a survey answered by almost 700 surgeons in training in the United States.
Almost 60% said they had suffered needle stick injuries when they were in medical school. Many said they were stuck more than once. Yet nearly half of those whose most recent incident happened in school did not report it to a health office. If they had, they would have been tested to see if they needed treatment to prevent an infection like HIV or hepatitis.
Most known cases of HIV or hepatitis are reported, but other possible infections often are not. Martin Makary, the lead author of the study, says medical students who are stuck put themselves and others in danger from infectious diseases.
Doctor Makary said, "A needle that goes through the skin needs to be as sharp as possible.” Doctors in training may have to do hundreds of stitches (縫線) in some cases to close the skin after an operation.
Doctor Makary said, “I support using blunt tip needles which are considered safer. This needle is still sharp enough to go through body tissue, but it does have a blunt tip, so that if it accidentally goes into my finger, it's much less likely to hurt me."
How common are needle sticks among health care workers? An estimated 600,000 to 800,000 of these and similar injuries are reported each year in the United States. But Doctor Makary says the real number may be much higher.
The study advises doctors to protect their hands by wearing two sets of gloves. It also urges hospitals to establish a special telephone number for medical workers and students to call if they are injured. The idea is for hospitals to send a clear message that there is no reason not to report this kind of accident.
小題1:It is dangerous for medical students not to report needle stick injuries because _________.

A．they don’t know how to treat themselves.

B．they may meet more needle sticks

C．it may cause some diseases

D．it may make patients sad.

小題2:If they report needle stick injuries, medical students will __________.

A．receive treatment	B．be forbidden to use sharp needles
C．spend more time on training	D．receive tests

小題3:The underlined word “blunt” in Paragraph 7 is the closest in meaning to “__________”.

A．not sharp

B．not safe

C．not long

D．not thick

小題4:What do we know from the passage?

A．Doctors who don’t report needle stick injuries will be punished.

B．Needle sticks among health care workers will reduce sharply in the future.

C．Most needle stick injuries happen in the United States.

D．Two suggestions are given to protect medical workers and students.

小題5:Where can this passage most probably be found?

A．In an entertainment magazine	B．In a science magazine
C．In a storybook	D．In science fiction

China needs to set absolute restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions(釋放) if it is to fulfill its aim to set up a carbon market over the next five years, a cabinet office think tank said in a paper.
“It is only under an absolute emissions cap that carbon emission permits will become a scarce resource and possess the qualities of a commodity,” the State Council?s Development and Research Center said in a paper in Seeking Truth, a magazine published by the ruling party.
China has traditionally baulked(猶豫) at the idea of emissions caps either on a regional basis or for industrial sectors, invoking a key Kyoto protocol principle that puts most of the burden of cutting green-house gases on developed countries.
China, the world ‘s biggest emitter of greenhouse gases, has also been under external pressure to make stronger commitments in the battle against global warming .The country has been the biggest beneficiary(受益人) of the Clean Development Mechanism, a UN-backed scheme that allows industrialized countries to meet their CO2 reduction targets by purchasing certified emission reductions or CERs from low-carbon projects launched in developing nations.
However, the European Union, the biggest buyer of CERs, has said it will not accept CERs generated by Chinese projects once the first phase of its Emissions Trading Scheme ends in 2012, though projects already registered will remain valid.
小題1: What does China hope to do in the next five years?

A．to cut its emissions by 45%

B．to set up a carbon market

C．to have lower emissions than other countries

D．to increase both emissions and production

小題2: China agreeing to limit emissions now because______

A．they care about the environment

B．emissions harm people’s health

C．of pressure from other countries

D．they want more profit for their factories

小題3:How does the CER scheme work?

A．Countries can buy the right to produce as much carbon emissions as they like.

B．All countries are required to set a carbon emissions cap and can then get certificates on how developed their environmental programme is.

C．Developed countries are allowed to produce more emissions than industrial countries.

D．Developed countries can buy the right to produce more carbon emissions from developing countries that produce less.

小題4: What is the main idea of this passage?

A．Air pollution is still increasing the problem of climate change all over the world.

B．China is still resisting cutting emissions as it is necessary for the manufacturing industry.

C．China believes that it is free from meeting international standards on emissions.

D．China will need to cut its emissions in the near future in order to keep up with the international community

The UK has a well-respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. But to those who are new to it all, sometimes it can be confusing.
October is usually the busiest month in the college calendar. Universities have something called Freshers’ Week for their newcomers. It’s a great opportunity to make new friends, join lots of clubs and settle into university life.
However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, the prospect (前景) of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve-wracking (令人焦慮不安的). Where do you start? Who should you make friends with? Which clubs should you join?
Luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot. So just take it all in slowly. Don’t rush into anything that you’ll regret for the next three years.
Here are some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers’ Week：
● Learn rules. Make sure you know British social etiquette (禮節). Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.
● Be kind. Sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.
● Be sociable. The more active you are, the more likely you’ll be to meet new people than if you’re someone who never leaves his room.
● Bring a doorstop. Keep your door open when you’re in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you’re friendly.
So with a bit of clever planning and effort, Freshers’ Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you’ll be passing on your experience to next year’s freshers.
小題1:We can learn from the passage that ______.

A．Freshers’ Week usually comes in September in UK

B．all the students are required to join certain clubs in UK

C．many freshers are worried about how to fit university life

D．most of the students in the UK spend three years in universities

小題2:Why does the author suggest having wine glasses and snacks handy?

A．To pass the busy university life.

B．To help make friends with other freshers.

C．To show yourself a drinker as others.

D．To enjoy the time in a happy way.

小題3:The main purpose of the passage is to _______.

A．tell the newcomers how to make a new start in universities

B．introduce something about higher education system of the UK

C．inform the freshers of British social etiquette

D．advise the freshmen how to behave well in the beginning

When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days.
It goes like this: You can't take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home, walking two blocks to the rail station. We'd take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the train, then maybe a taxi. We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district, but we didn't like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. At the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom's friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.
The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的). She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.
Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. New cities are just lightrail lines to be explored. And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet.
On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestrut Street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. First, it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As I got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where's the stop, and will I get wet when we go under the river?
I'm writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn't try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.
小題1: According to the writer, what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?

A．Building confidence in herself.

B．Reducing her use of private cars.

C．Developing her sense of direction.

D．Giving her knowledge about vehicles.

小題2: The underlined word “paralyzed”(in Para.5) is closest in meaning to “________”．

A．displayed

B．justified

C．ignored

D．ruined

小題3: Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of?

A．Airplane.

B．Subway.

C．Train.

D．Car.

Kids have their own ideas about money---some are sensible and others are not so wise.
Twelve-year-old Amanda thinks it’s        to save and not blow your money right away “ so you can         other things”.
When it comes to credit cards, eight-year-old Jeremie says when the monthly        comes in “ you sign it and then you give it back” ---leaving out the part about actually        it.
These kids are        far away from the working world, but the ideas they’re forming about        could affect how much they save, how they use credit cards and how much debt they finally take on in later life.
High school business teacher Jeff Balch said his students had        knowledge about money other than spending. “ They don’t know most things because        talks to them about them---as in their parents,” said Balch, “The discussions tend to be in terms of kids        too much money, but no one tells them why, where their money goes.
Mitch Murphy said students’ message to the task force was to “ make it       ”. “ It may be difficult to have a 14-or 15-year-old student get too        about retirement planning, ” Murphy said, “ But if you want to talk about a cellphone contract or a debt card,they will be engaged in.” Murphy said learning financial literacy (能力)　    , well        getting into the work force, should stay with Canadians for life and        the country as a result.
Sandra Martin said children can start learning about money when they learn to       . “ Sit down with the flyers and look at how much things cost,” Martin said. Babysitting and birthday money could be        and there would be a(n)        as to how much could be debited(借) every month, she said.
“ The reality is that we’re not spending with cash anymore. If you’re always in         of your child’s money, then they’re never going to learn what it means to save for something that’s      .”
Balch said he tries to make his students realize the differences between needs, wants and priorities(優先權). If they haven’t learned self-control and if they haven’t learned how to        money, they can easily spiral(螺旋上升) out of control.

Most American schools have boys and girls in the same classroom. But a public high school in the small, rural town of Boonsboro, Maryland, offers a special program called the Academy. Top students in the ninth and tenth grades can attend single-sex classes for math, science, English and social studies.
The aim is to help teenagers keep their mind on their work by keeping males and females apart. What they really want to do is take that top group of kids and take them to the very highest level they can achieve there, so that they’re prepared for college.
Students are invited to enter this program after they finish middle school, and placement in the Academy is voluntary. However, they need high marks and test scores and strong teacher recommendations. They also need to be involved in activities.
Almost 350 students have taken part in the Academy. It began as an experiment in 2010.
Michael Bair has been at Boonsboro High for twenty years and directs the Academy. His ninth-grade English class for boys centers on books that he believes boys find interesting. He says that the novels the students are reading now are very manly (男子氣概的) novels. These novels deal with the arrogance (傲慢) of man and the pride of man which finally leads to man’s downfall.
One of those books, for example, is The Call of the Wild by Jack London. This classic story tells of a dog stolen from his home and sold to work as a sled dog in Canada’s Klondike Gold Rush.
Morgan Fleet, a senior at Boonsboro High, likes being in the Academy. She says boys and girls act differently when they are together in a classroom. She believes this difference seems to prevent her from developing herself because she’s more focused on thoughts like “Oh, I wish they would shut up. Oh, what do they think of me?’’ instead of focusing on “What’s the homework? What’s going on in this class? What’s the lesson?”.
There is one activity that girls and boys in the Academy do together. At the end of the day, many of them stay and help tutor students who are having trouble in school.
小題1:What is the purpose of the Academy program?

A．To offer a special program in high school.

B．To help students concentrate on study.

C．To strengthen sex education for teenagers.

D．To start learning college courses earlier.

小題2:To enter the Academy program, students are NOT required to _________.

A．do well in their study	B．be recommended by teachers
C．take part in some activities	D．have worked as volunteers

小題3:The Call of the Wild is given as an example to show that male students ___.

A．should learn more about literature

B．should have a sense of protecting the wildlife

C．are reading more manly novels

D．are interested in stories on animals

小題4:Which is likely to be Morgan Fleet’s opinion?

A．A girl cares about the boys’ opinions of her.

B．Single-sex classes should be stopped.

C．Girls are more focused when studying with boys.

D．Boys and girls act the same in separate classrooms.

小題5:The passage is intended to _________.

A．introduce the single-sex class project

B．explain the differences between boys and girls

C．persuade students to enter the Academy program

D．urge students to work hard in their study

Expensive and new gloves allow chatterboxes（話匣子）to take the term “handsfree” to a new level—by talking into them as they make a call. The gloves are known as “Talk to the Hand” and cost £1,000 a pair. They fixed a speaker unit into the thumb and a microphone into the little finger that can be connected to any mobile handset using Bluetooth.
Artist Sean Miles designed the new gloves that double as a phone in part of his project that shows the possibilities of gadget recycling. He uses outdated gloves and combines them with parts from mobile handsets recycled through O2, which commissioned（承擔）the project. Mobile phone users will be able to keep their hands warm while they chat without taking their phones out of their pockets or handbags.
Mr Miles designed two pairs of the new gloves—one in pink and the other in brown and yellow. They will appear in an exhibition this July and visitors will be able to win the gloves. If demand is high, they will then be produced on a larger scale. O2 Recycle, which backed the project, estimates that there are already 70 million unused mobile handsets in the UK. The service pays up to £260 to those who recycle gadgets including phones, handheld consoles, MP3 players and digital cameras.
Designer Sean Miles hopes his work will get people thinking about recycling. The 41-year-old said, “I hope that my ‘Talk to the Hand’ project will get people to think again about the waste created by not recycling gadgets. If a few more people recycle their gadgets rather than send them to trash, I think this project will have fulfilled its aim.”
Bill Eyres, head of O2 Recycle, urges people to recycle their phone responsibly. He said, “There’s a pressing need for all of us to look at outdated handsets, and all the gadgets that we move on from or upgrade each year. Whether they are consoles or cameras, we should think of them as a resource that we need to recycle responsibly rather than throw them away.”
小題1:The underlined word “O2” in Paragraph 2 is probably the name of ______.

A．an artist

B．a company

C．a mobile

D．an exhibition

小題2:Consumers can buy the “Talk to the Hand” gloves ______.

A．in the exhibition

B．from Mr Miles

C．when they are mass produced

D．after they recycle the gadgets

小題3: The purpose of the project is to _______.

A．promote the technology of IT

B．enable people to talk to their hands

C．raise people’s awareness of recycling
