A romantic love story B（原创） One kind of female butterfly mates only once in its life -- and then closes its wings to avoid "harassment" when pursued by persistent and unwanted males, a Japanese researcher said. Observations of the Small Copper Butterfly, a colourful orange and black butterfly, showed that some females closed their wings when males flew by, but only when they were males of their own species, said Jun-Ya Ide, an associate professor at Kurume Institute of Technology in Fukuoka, western Japan. "When we looked into why, the males were courting the females. They do this very stubbornly, so the females sometimes try to get away -- or prefer to stay unobserved," he added. Ide and his colleagues brought a model of a male butterfly near the females to test their reactions and found that young females that had yet to mate kept their wings open, but those that had already mated closed them. Not only can the persistent attentions of unwanted suitors harm the delicate females, fleeing from them -- with the male often in pursuit -- uses up strength and can even shorten their lives, he added. "Closing their wings makes them less visible, helping them avoid communication with their own species. We figured they were trying to avoid harassment by males," Ide said. 59.What does the word “harassment”mean in the paragraph？ A.sexual invasion B.embarassment C.attack D.threat 60.Why some some females closed their wings when males flew by？ A.because the female butterfly mates only once in its life. B. because they close their wings to avoid "harassment" when pursued by persistent and unwanted males. C. because they don’t like the male butterfly at all. D. because they are afraid of the male butterfly. 61.According the the passage, which is correct? A.The females closed their wings when males flew by. B.The female butterfly mates only once in its life. C. Only the model of a male butterfly can make the young female butterflies to keep their wings open. D. Not only can the persistent attentions of wanted suitors harm the delicate females, fleeing from them -- with the male often in pursuit -- uses up strength and can even shorten their lives. C ( 原创, 文章选自中国日报) 2011 Top Education News "Tiger Mother" became well known both in the US and China after the publication of the Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua, a professor of Yale University and a Chinese immigrant mother. In the book, Chua describes how she educates her two daughters in a strict "typical Chinese" way. The South University of Science and Technology of China (SUSTC), became "China's first independent university"-the only university to recruit students through its independent exam rather than the National College Entrance Exam adopted by almost all public universities in China. Wuhan schoolboy Huang Yibo, 13,known as the deputy chief of all Wuhan's young pioneers, became an overnight sensation after blogging about watching prime time news on China's  Central Television since he was two years old and reading People's Daily since the age of seven because his father asked him to do so.  The First Experimental Elementary School of Weiyang district in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, hit the headlines for requiring students with a poor performance to wear a green scarf, distinguishing them from the good performance of the red scarf, a symbol for the Young Pioneer organization. Dong Fan, a professor from Beijing Normal University, the director of the university’s real estate research center, refused to see any of his students who do not possess 40 million yuan by the time they are 40. Dong said people who had received high-level education should be ashamed if they do not live a wealthy life. The No 4 classroom building on the campus of Tsinghua University, one of China's elite colleges, took on the name of a popular clothing company, the Hong Kong-based Jeanswest Clothing in May. A golden-colored plate bearing the name of the company was affixed on to the wall of the teaching building. 62. How many pieces of the news above have something to do with family education? A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D.5 63. Which of the following statements is True according to the news above? A. “Tiger Mother” is famous for her book about how she educates her two daughters. B. Students caring about environmental protection will wear a green scarf. C. Tsinghua University became "China's first independent university". D. Huang Yibo began to read People's Daily at the age of two. 64. We can infer from the news about Dong Fan that _______. A. he works hard B. he spares no efforts to help his students C.he tends to measure success by money D. he is a professor of Yale University 65. All the six pieces of news above deal with the subject of ______. A. schools B. parents C. students D. education D(文章选自Voice of American Special English,题目原创） Half of the world’s population is affected by Asian monsoons（季风）, 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, moist （潮湿的）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.” 66.What’sthe 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. 67. 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. 68. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Long and details 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. 69. What do we know about the research according to Eugene Wahl? A. It is a great achievement in climate science. B. It should include information about human life in the past. C. It has analysed moisture models world wide, D. It will help people prevent droughts and floods. 70. Which of the following best describes the tone of this passage? A. Matter-of –fact B. Pessimistic C. Humorous D. Friendly. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Choose friends who make you feel happy! Not long ago, I opened an e-mail from Jennifer, a lady I knew through business in Guelph, Ontario, Canada, “I have been seeing how I feel after interacting with different people and thinking who I feel good about, 71 ” Then she invited me and eleven other women to a “Movie Night” to be held every six weeks at her house. She promised we were sure to enjoy a good time. 72 She made it clear in her invitation that there was no pressure to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful! 73 I gratefully accepted her kind invitation. 74 Although all the women were eager to participate, some said they didn’t see themselves as optimistic people. “I told them they didn’t have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them because they made me feel happy,” she says. 75 In a US study, researchers measured the happiness of 4739 people at regular interval over 20 years. The study found that a person’s happiness depends on the happiness of
