( H; ^! u5 {( y6 U3 m: B  w0 e  A Great Quake Coming?
7 T0 R- N/ C' j% t0 X  Everyone who lives in San Francisco knows that earthquakes are common in the bav area.Theyhad keen devastating in 1906,for example,a major quake destroyed about 28.000 buildings andkilled hundreds,perhaps thousands of people. Residents now wonder when the next"big one"willstrike.It's bound to happen someday.At least seven active fault(断层)lines run through the SanFrancisco area.Faults are places where pieces of earth's crust(地壳)slide past each other.Whenthese pieces slip,the ground shakes.
5 p. x: N" @' Y8 m  To prepare for that day。scientists are using new techniques to reanalyze the 1906 earthquake and predict how bad the damage might be when the next one happens. One new finding about the 1906 quake is that the San Andreas Fault split apart faster than scientists had assumed at the time.During small earthquakes,faults rupture at about 2.7 kilometersper second.During bigger quakes,however,ruptures can happen at rates faster than 3.5 kilometersper second.
3 v" p; y- K) Q4 q6 g  i1 q9 x  At such high speeds,massive amounts of pressure build up,generating underground waves that can cause more damage than the quake itself.Lucky for San Fancisco,these pressure pulses(脉冲) traveled alway from the city duffng the 1906 event.As bad as the damage was,it could have been farWorse.% u) t3 z( T) l& M- J. h
  Looking ahead,scientists are trying to predict when the next major quake will occur.Records show that earthquakes were common before 1906 event. Since then,the area has been relatively quiet.Pattems in the data,however,suggest that the probability of a major earthquake striking the bay area before 2032 is at least 62 percent.
3 x' r) ?2 Y) X9 ~$ o  New buildings in san Francisco are quite safe in case of future quakes.Still,more than 84 percent of the city's buildings are old and weak.Analyses suggest that another massive earthquake would cause extensive damage.

  Cell Phones
5 G( \% F, |2 K0 {  1. Believe it or not,cell phones have been around for over a quarter of a century.The first commercial cell phone system was developed by the Japanese in 1979.But cell phones have changeda lot since that time.The early cell phones were big and heavy but they have developed into smalland light palm-sized models.There have been huge developments in their functions,too.We havehad cell forwarding,text messaging,answering services and hands-free use for years,but now thereare countless new facilities,such as instant access to the internet and receiving and sending photos.1 ]9 x/ e8 Q9 B, ^: S: c3 D
  2. Cell phones have become very common in our lives;recent statistics suggest as many as one in three people on the planet now have a cell phone,and most of them say they couldn't live without one.Cell phones are used in every area of our lives and have become a necessary tool,usedfor essential arrangements,social contact and business.They have made it easier to call for help onthe highway.They have made it possible to keep in touch with people"on the move"when peopleare traveling.
; _. B9 w4 _* ^1 |6 H" D( l# Q& L  X  3. Cell phones have made communication easier and have reduced the need for family argu ments.We can use cell phones to let our family know we'll be late or if there's a change of plan oran emergency.Cell phones have eased the worries of millions of parents when their teenagers are outlate,they can now contact their children at any time.
% q1 _8 u# l' j  4.This does not mean that cell phones are all good news.They have brought with them anumber of new headaches for their owners:it costs a lot to replace stolen phones,something that isbecoming a frequent occurrence,and have you ever seen such huge phone bills? More serious,however,is the potential health problem they bring:there are fears that radiation from the phones maycause brain tumor(肿瘤)。This may be a time bomb waiting to happen to younger people who havegrown up with cell phones that they simply can't live without.% Q.

  第一篇 Arctic Melt6 x' Y# u. P" @" I
  Earth's North and South Poles ale famous for being cold and icy.Last year,however,theamount of ice in the Arctic Ocean feU t0 a record low.
8 {$ E  F9 _% _5 c; t& [  Normally,ice builds in Arctic waters around the North Pole each winter and shrinks during thesummer.But for many years,the amount of ice left by the end of summer has been declining.
5 S1 X' a( D0 s. ^' j4 z2 {  p  Since 1979,each decade has seen an 11.4 percent drop in end of summer ice cover.Between1981 and 2000,ice in the Arctic lost 22 percent of its thickness,becoming 1.13 meters thinner.
" {2 g) w1 @+ r3 [# W+ u; w  Last summer,Arctic sea ice reached its skimpiest levels yet.By the end of summer 2007,theice had shrunk to cover iust 4.2 million square kilometers.That's 38 percent less area than the average cover at that time of year.And it's a very large 23 percent below the previous record low,whichwas set just 2 years ago.This continuing trend has scientists concerned.
9 ~( c: E& r' f9 X) v0 Z8 y: {1 D* l  There may be several reasons for the ice melt,says Jinlun Zhang,an oceanographer at the University of Washington at Seattle.Unusually strong winds blew through the Arctic last summer.Thewinds pushed much of the ice out of the central Arctic.leaving a large area of thin ice and open water.
; {2 F3 K8 Y# E/ |  Scientists also suspect that fewer clouds cover the Arctic now than in the past.Clearer skies allow more sunlight to reach the ocean.The extra heat warnls both the water and the atmosphere.Inparts of the Arctic Ocean last year,surface temperatures were 3.5℃ warmer than average and 1.5℃warmer than the previous record high.: A' t5 i) Y. P' U
  With both air and water getting warmer,the ice is melting from both above and below.In someDarts 0f the Beaufort Sea,north of Alaska and western Canada,ice that measured 3.3 meters thickat the beginning of the summer measured just 50 centimeters by season's end.
8 V& X. U* [: ^4 y/ \  The new measurements suggest that melting is far more severe than scientists have seen by justlooking at ice cover from above,says Donald K.Perovich,a geophysicist at the U.S.Army ColdRegions Research and Engineering Laboratory in Hanover,N.H.

: g  H0 [* O: f! b( D2 ^  But ecologists can't be everywhere so they're turning to non-scientists,sometimes called citizen scientists,for help.
( p2 ~7 Y; I5 Z5 @. s- O8 e, n1 p  CIimate scientists are not present everywhere.Because there are so many places in the worldand not enough scientists to observe all of them,they're asking for your help in observing signs ofclimate change across the world.The citizen scientist movement encourages ordinary people too bserve a very specific research interest-birds,trees,flowers budding,etc.and send their observationsto a giant database to be observed by professional scientists.This helps a small number of scientiststrack a large amount of data that they would never be able to gather on their own.Much like citizenjournalists helping large publications cover a hyper-local beat,citizen scientists are ready for theconditions where thev live. All that's needed to become one is a few minutes each day or each weekto gather data and send it in.
; C9 k, D+ y2 R% M: g4 e4 T  A group of scientists and educators launched an organization last year called the National Phenology Network."Phenology"is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.

  We know that there is air all around the world.We could not breathe without air.Airplanescoutd not fly without air.They need air to lift their wings.Airplanes cannot fly very high because asthey go higher the air gets thinner.If we go far enough away from the earth,we find there is no air. What is the sky?The sky is space.In this space there is nothing except the sun,the moon andall the stars.3 |. ]- p" O+ X0 G6 \

  The moon is about 384.000 kilometers away from the earth.An airplane cannot fly to the moonbut there is a thing that can fly even when there is no air.This is rocket.

  This is how a rocket works.It is not made of rubber like a balloon,of course.It is made ofmetal.The metal must not be heavy but it must be very strong.There is gas inside the rocket whichis made very hot.When it rushes out of the end of the rocket,the rocket is pushed up into the air.

  第2部分:阅读判断

  17.C[解析]文章虽然说旧金山大地震的破坏力非常之大,但是没有明确指出其程度是美国历史之最,所以是"not ment:ionecl"。. V7 j, o+ O! s
  18.A[解析]文章中说到较大一点的地震其速度至少会超过3500米,而问题为旧金山大地震时断层滑动最快的速度可以到达多少,根据逻辑推断,应该是超过3500米,所以正确。/ i1 s2 P0 d8 a! @
  19.B [解析]文章第五段的第二句话就说到1906年前地震频繁,所以题干错误。
) w3 e: Z" t  I4 B9 [, a  20.B [解析]虽然文章的五、六两段都阐述了科学家们做的积极准备,以及新建建筑物的牢固程度,但之后又话锋一转,说还有84%的老楼不够安全,而在最后一段,也提及人们的心态似乎比较放松,没有较多的忧患意识,因此来判断该题不正确。
9 f6 P1 o7 Q6 z4 Y  21.C[解析]第五段的最后一句话说科学家们预测到62%地震发生的概率,但是这并不意味着科学家们就能预测出准确的时间,最后一段也说明这是个时间问题,而没有明确说明时间,所以该题选择没有提及。7 B8 C' R6 ?7 L5 C- d$ p
  22.A[解析]本题如上题,科学家们预测出了地震发生的概率为62%,同时最后一句话说只是时间问题,可见,大地震袭击旧金山是不可避免的。

  23.E [解析]第一段开篇就说手机发明到现在几近四分之一个世纪,又对比了手机早期和近期在功能上的不同,可以想见是在叙述手机的历史。
9 i* e% `6 q: d$ y  I  24.C [解析]第二段讲手机在人们的生活中十分普及,许多人离不开手机,用于各个场合,因而意在说明手机存在于每个人的生活中。0 q* d1 {9 k& ^/ j/ n' Y. L* i5 v
  25.A[解析]第三段例举了手机对于家人联系上的作用,有助于减少家庭的误会纠纷,有助于父母联系孩子,因而讲的是同家庭的关系。
5 p* ^9 k/ u$ v  26.F [解析]最后一段第一句就说明了该段要讲的是手机带来的问题,段中举了青少年的例子,因此D选项有一定的迷惑性,但是纵观全段,还是不局限于只描写青少年,因此选F。$ F6 L; z# G/ t: g' z/ ?1 _  X6 ^

  第一篇, h) ], J; m6 [0 s" t
  31.D [解析]本句话的译文为每年冬天北极附近的北冰洋开始结冰,build为结冰的意思,expanel有容积扩张的意思,所以与build相符;而construct为修筑、建筑的意思,所以不能选。( t, g7 x6 L1 X4 A1 N5 `+ O

  36.C[解析]前文提到科学家们没有可能去观察每一个地方的气候变化现象,所以邀请普通人为他们观察、收集信息。( {+ N# T8 N& u" N

  39.A[解析]文章全文都在说普通人参与科学研究的项目,因此,只有A选项不符合。其他选项都能在文中找出。

, |2 B+ F9 V) G  51.B [解析]原文中用also may help,说明应填与上文prevent相似的词句,throw投掷, create创造,keep保持,都与之不符,所以是prevent。
: }+ q9 _. F- e( C  52.A[解析]bridge supports意为桥梁支柱,后用or连接,是指与桥梁支柱同样的事物,所以插入语部分应该指"其他建筑材料"。another后跟名词单数。the other使用时一般在前面有对比参照物。others本身就是指代名词,后不需要再有词语。other指代其他的,后可跟名词。
+ E$ `. J0 H6 p. k6 S- V  53.D [解析]本句意为当建筑物要倒塌时,它会变成红色。那么按照逻辑推理,应该是倒塌前变红色,才会起作用,所以before符合题意;although显然文不对题;until与after,逻辑不对。
' g+ |. b2 e3 B7 E" e9 \  54.B [解析]习惯用法,secret behind指什么东西背后的秘密;under也有底下的意思,但更多是强调地理空间上的;用于抽象事物,多用behind。

  57.C [解析]本句的译文为分子的行为取决于组合成分子的原子种类和他们的组合方式。所以kind前应加what。

  61.A[解析]本句意为其实验结果令人振奋。所以应选results。
" w) U& z4 j3 x% p6 ^) X  62.D[解析]前文说断裂的联系从新凝合,那么红色相对应的,就应是消失、退去。! g3 p8 H( L2 _) x$ ^5 t
