4、A Strong Greenhouse Gas
1 Methane is a colorless, odorless gas; it is also a potent greenhouse gas, and once released into the atmospheres, it absorbs beat radiating from Earth＇s surface. That＇s why methane is a major contributor to the planet＇s increasing temperature rise or global warming. Molecule for molecule, methane＇s heat-trapping power in the atmosphere is 21 times stronger than carbon dioxide, the most abundant greenhouse gas.
2 With 13 billion cows belching almost constantly around the world (100 million in the U. S. alone), it＇s no surprise that menace released by livestock is one of the chief sources of the gas. Other prime methane sources: petroleum, drilling, coal mining, solid-waste landfills and wetlands.
3 Greenhouse gases like methane and carbon dioxide make up only a small part of Earth＇s atmosphere, which is 78 percent nitrogen and nearly 21 percent oxygen. And without greenhouse gases to trap the sun＇s heat and warm the planet, life as we know it couldn＇t exist. But in the last200 years, human activity that requires burning oil, natural gas, and coal for energy has magnified the greenhouse effect.
4 Atmospheric concentrations of methane have more than doubled in the last two centuries. Blame for this often focuses on big industries and gas-guzzling vehicles. But agriculture plays a major role, too. In the past 40 years alone, the global cattle population has doubled.
5 Cows munch mostly grasses and hay yet they grow big and hefty. Why? Because of the rumen. The rumen holds 160 liters of food and billions of microbes. These microscopic bacteria and protozoa break down cellulose and Fiber into digestible nutrients. A cow couldn＇t live without its microbes. As the microbes digest cellulose, trey release methane. The process occurs in all animals with a rumen (cows, sheep, and goats, for example), and it makes them very gassy. It＇s part of their normal digestion process. When they drew their cud, they regurgitate some food to rechew it, and all this gas comes out. The average cow expels 600 liters of methane a day.
That＇s why we say livestock gas is also a major factor of causing the global warming.
Generally people heap criticism on fox the planet＇s temperature rise ____ .
【單選題】

A.one of tire major contributors

B.the ever-increasing atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases

C.big and hefty cows

D.livestock＇s normal digestion process

E.how to cut down the cattle population

F.big industries and gas-guzzling vehicles

正確答案:F

答案解析:第4段第2句直接談到這個問題，人們常常將不斷加劇的溫室效應歸罪于大工業(yè)和汽車，而cattle釋放甲烷的因素被忽略了。

5、The State of Marriage Today
Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse. If this trend continues, it will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times and extramarital affairs will be even more common than they are now.
But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so gloomy? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The institution of marriage has been based for years partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands as they usually didn＇t have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don＇t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.
In answer to the second question, the outlook may not be as pessimistic as it seems. While the rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now cohabit and don＇t bother to marry. These couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics. In fact, more than 50% of first marriages survive. The statistics are deceptive because there is a higher number of divorces in second and third marriages than in first marriages.
So is marriage really an outdated institution? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn＇t. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress and its consequences, such as heart problems, and married men generally consider themselves more contented than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and apply it to all of our relationships!
Why may the outlook of marriage not be as gloomy as it appears?【單選題】

A.Many people still like to get married.

B.The rate of divorce has actually decreased.

C.Over 50% of the marriages continue to exist.

D.The statistics of divorce is not quite true.

正確答案:A

答案解析:從第3段里可以了解到離婚率并沒有下降而是上升了，因此B選項不對。而C選項與第3段里“In fact，more than 50% of first marriages survive”所說不符，該選項沒有提到是第一次婚姻。同樣，D選項在文中也沒有說到，文中第3段的最后一句只是說統(tǒng)計數據具有欺騙性，而沒有說數據失實。

6、Britain＇s Solo Sailor
Ellen MacArthur started sailing when she was eight, going out on sailing trips with her aunt. She loved it so much that she saved her money for three years to buy her first small sailing boat. When she was 18, she sailed alone around Britain and won the "Young Sailor of the Year" award.
Ellen became famous in 2001. Aged only 24, she was one of the only two women who entered the Vendee Globe round the world solo race, which lasts 100 days. Despite of many problems, she came the second in the race out of 24 competitors and she was given a very warm welcome when she returned.
Ambition and determination have always been a big part of Ellen＇s personality. When she was younger, she lived in a kind of hut (棚屋) for three years while she was trying to get sponsorship to compete in a transatlantic race. Then she took a one - way ticket to France, bought a tiny seven meter Class Mini yacht (游艇), slept under it while she was repairing it, and then she raced it 4,000 kilometres across the Atlantic in 1997, alone for 33 days.
Ellen has to learn many things, because sailing single - handed means that she has to be her own captain, electrician, sailmaker, engineer, doctor, journalist, cameraman and cooker, She also has to be very fit, and because of the dangers of sleeping for long periods of time she＇s in the middle of the ocean, she has trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
And she needs courage. Once, in the middle of the ocean, she had to climb the mast (桅桿) of a boat to repair the sails at four o＇clock in the morning, with 100 kph winds blowing around her. It took her many hours to make the repairs, Ellen says: "I was exhausted when came down. It＇s hard to describe how it feels to be up there. It＇s like trying to hold onto a big pole, which for me is just too big to get my arms around, with someone kicking you all the time and trying to shake you off".
But in her diary, Ellen also describes moments which is worthwhile (值得的) :"A beautiful sunrise started the day, with black clouds slowly lit by the bright yellow sun. I have a very strong feeling of pleasure, being out here on the ocean and having the chance to live this. I just feel lucky to be here."
According to paragraph 4, which of the following statements is NOT true? ____ 【單選題】

A.She has to learn to repair sails.

B.She has to be her own teacher.

C.She has to be very fit.

D.She has trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.

正確答案:B

答案解析:本題是判斷題，有一定難度，選項的干擾較大，需要確定好文章里sailmaker的意思，需要緊扣文章原意。選項里A，B干擾較大，因為，C，D很明顯是文章里明確提到的，可以排除。第四段談到，“Ellen必須學會許多事情，因為單獨航行意味著她必須是自己的船長、電工、修帆工……”Sailmaker是指“修船工”，所以A的意思和原文是一致的，可以排除。Captain，船長，不是教師，所以B是錯誤的，答案是B。

7、March Madness
For the rest of the month, an epidemic (流行病) will sweep across the US. It will keep kids stay home from school. College students will ignore piles of homework. Employees will suddenly lose their abilities to concentrate.
The disease, known as "March Madness", refers to the nearly 65 teams in US men＇s college basketball tournament, it begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April. Teams compete against each other in a single elimination tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.
Nearly 20 million Americans will become the prisoners of basketball festival madness.
The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends, husbands against wives, and colleagues against bosses.
Big name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little - known universities.
This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Last year the little - known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.
College basketball players are not paid, so the game is making a name for their university and themselves. But ft doesn＇t mean money isn＇t involved. About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will draw over $ 500 million in advertising revenue this year, topping the post - season revenue, including the NBA (全國籃球協(xié)會).
Which statement about the epidemic is NOT true? ____【單選題】

A.It occurs every fourth year.

B.It starts on March 15.

C.It is known as "March Madness".

D.It lasts through the beginning of April.

正確答案:A

答案解析:本題難度不大，答案依據比較明顯。第二段第一句出現了關鍵詞yearly，指“每年地”，即比賽是每年舉辦一次，所以正確答案是A。

8、Travel Across Africa
For six hours we shot through the barren (荒蕪的) landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I＇d bought in a market in Mozambique.
Southern Africa was full of stories and visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring (咆哮) of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.
And then the other things, dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto livng in one room, a kilometre from clean water.
As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty and we hadn＇t seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye. Something moved close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn＇t know how long they had been there next to us.
I shouted to Dan: "Look!" But he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
"Wild horses?" he said. "Why didn＇t you wake me up, Sophia?"
"I tried, but they were gone after a few seconds."
"Are you sure you didn＇t dream it?"
"You were the one who was sleeping!"
"Typical," he said, "The best photos are the ones we never take."
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
Daniel and Sophia saw a lot of wonderful things.
【單選題】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正確答案:A

答案解析:本題難度不大，答案依據是文章第二段，Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions. We were almost drunk on sensations.

9、One-Room Schools
One-room schools are part of the heritage of the United States, and the mention of them makes people feel a longing for "the way things were." One - room schools are an endangered species (種類), however. For more than a hundred years, one - room schools have been systematically shut down and their students were sent away to centralized schools. As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one - room schools in the United States. By 1970 there were 1,800. Today, of the nearly 800 remaining one - room schools, more than 350 are in Nebraska. The rest are spread through a few other states that have on their road maps wide - open spaces between towns.
Now that there are hardly any left, educators are beginning to think that maybe there is something yet to be learned from one - room schools, something that served the pioneers that might serve as well today. Progressive educators have come up with new names like "peer - group teaching" and "multi - age grouping" for educational procedures that occur naturally in the one - room schools. In a one - room school the children teach each other because the teacher is busy part of the time teaching someone else. The fourth grader can work at the fifth grade level in math and the third grade level in English without the bad name associated with being left back or the pressures of being skipped (超過) ahead. A youngster with a learning disability can find his or her own level without being separated from other pupils. A few hours in a small school that has only one classroom and it becomes clear why so many parents feel that one of the advantages of living in Nebraska is that their children have to go to a one - room school.
We learn from the first paragraph that one - room schools ____. 【單選題】

A.are the best in Nebraska

B.are becoming more and more centralized

C.have had a strong influence on American people

D.need to be shut down

正確答案:C

答案解析:本題有一定難度．考生需要有很強的概括能力和近義轉化能力。做本題時，不要先看選項。第一段開頭談到，大教室學校已經成為美國遺產的一部分，一提到它就會使人們渴望回到過去，換句話說，這種學校對美國人影響至深，回來看選項，C項是近義解釋，答案是C。

10、Fighting for a Brighter Future for Women
When I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president, I always gave the same answer that I was proud to be running as a woman, but I was running because thought I＇d be the best president.
But I am a woman and, like millions of women, I know there are still barriers and biases (偏見) out there, often unconscious, and I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us.
I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worried about my daughter＇s future and a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows.
To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men understand the struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect.
Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions (命題): there are no acceptable limits, and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21 st century in our country.
You can also be so proud of it, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories, unremarkable to let a woman in a close race to be our nominee (被提名者), unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. And this is truly remarkable my friends.
We are disappointed that we couldn＇t go all of the way, especially the young people who put so much into this campaign. It would break my heart if, in falling short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.
We always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And when you stumble (綽倒), keep faith. And, when you＇re knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can＇t or shouldn＇t go on.
As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman will leave the Earth and orbit (繞軌道運行) overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.
Hillary Clinton will support Obama in the upcoming presidential election campaign.【單選題】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正確答案:C

答案解析:本題有一定難度，需要通讀全文。通讀全文可以發(fā)現，全文始終沒有提到奧巴馬，所以本題是未提及的，答案是C。
