“Soon, you’re going to have to move out!” cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind, or at least known in my neighborhood.
One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1. 25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is well on its way to the front door. Roses require a good deal of care, and if it weren’t for the pleasure they give, it wouldn’t be worth the work. As it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for most of the year. Bushes must be pruned(剪枝) in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant. A big mistake.
Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out to be even more perfect for tomatoes. The daily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing(施肥) have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it as the plant grew has long since disappeared under the thick leaves.
Now the task I face in harvesting the fruit is two fold(方面): First, I have to find the red ones among the leaves, which means I almost have to stand on my head, and once found I have to reach down and under, pick the tomatoes and withdraw my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won. Second, I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June, but they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.
Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say goodbye
to several expensive and treasured roses. Like Scarlett in Gone With the Wind, I’ll think about that tomorrow.
36.What are the requirements for the healthy growth of roses? A. Frequent pruning and fertilizing. B. Tomato plants grown alongside. C. Cages placed around the roots. D. A lot of care and the right soil.
37.The writer planted the tomato because ____. A. there was room for it in the garden B. it cost only $1. 25
C. the soil was just right for it
D. the roses’ branches needed to be covered 38.This year the writer’s roses were ____. A. removed from the rose bed
B. picked along with the tomatoes
C. largely hidden under the tomato plant D. mostly damaged by too much sunlight
39.By saying “the prize so dearly won” in paragraph 5, the writer wants to ____. A. show the hardship of growing the roses
B. show the difficulty in picking the tomatoes C. express her liking for the roses D. express her care for the tomatoes

The historic center of Vienna has been added to UNESCO's World Cultural Heritage list. Thus, St. Stephen's Cathedral, the Imperial Palace and many other historic buildings are now recognized as being among the 700 outstanding cultural and natural monuments of mankind - others include the Pyramid Fields from Giza to Dahshur, the historic center of Rome, the Kremlin with the Red Square, the Chinese Wall, the Taj Mahal and the Grand Canyon.
Vienna's historic center, in its unity, is considered one of the most beautiful city landmarks in Europe. Three eras left their mark on the former residence of the Habsburgs: the Middle Ages with Gothic St. Stephen's Cathedral whose spire points toward heaven, one of Vienna's landmarks; the Baroque whose most important achievement is the Imperial Palace with its sumptuous cupolas (奢华的圆顶). And the Ring Boulevard era of the late nineteenth
century, when such splendid buildings as the Vienna State Opera and the Museum of Fine Arts were built to replace the former city walls. The imperial flair of the center of Vienna is enhanced (加强) by numerous churches, mansions and parks, as well as by rich art collections gathered by wealthy rulers. And the centuries-old musical tradition ranges from the Court Chapel of the Imperial Palace to Mozart's immortal (不朽的) music and the waltzes of Johann Strauss. Also inseperably linked to the center of the city are the delights of Viennese cuisine, the gemütlichkeit of Viennese coffeehouses and nostalgic shopping at former purveyors (伙食承办商) to the imperial court. 44.Which of the following is not mentioned as cultural and natural monuments of man-kind? A. the Taj Mahal
B. the Pyramid Fields
C. the Kremlin with the Red Square D. the Court Chapel
45.The second paragraph is developed mainly by ____. A. following the order of place B. providing examples C. making comparisons D. analyzing causes

A. The universal value of the world heritage in Vienna
B. Vienna’s becoming one of the cultural and natural monuments of mankind C. The introduction of the historic center of Vienna
D. The special culture atmosphere of the historic center of Vienna
Researchers are placing robotic dogs in the homes of lonely old people to determine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old people's depression, physical activity, and life satisfaction. “No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated (刺激),” Edwards points out. “The problem is how we promote that, especially for those without friends or help. A robotic dog could be a solution.”
In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activities before and after AIBO. Then, the researchers will review the data to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner.
“I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice,” says a seventy-year-old lady. “When I'm watching TV, he'll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has a mind of his own.”
The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The researchers say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns. “At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate to the robotic dog because it was metal and not furry,” Beck says. “But it's amazing how quickly we have given up
that belief.”
“Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a more valuable health helper. They will record their masters’ blood pressure, oxygen levels, or heart rhythms. AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate older people's minds.” 48.The purpose of Beck and Edwards’ study is to ____. A. understand human-animal relationship
B. find the causes of old people’s loneliness C. make lonely old people’s life better D. promote the animal-assisted research
49.In the research, the old people are asked to ____. A. note the activities of AIBOs B. keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeks C. analyze the collected information D. record their feelings and activities
50.What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs? A. It can watch TV with its owner. B. It can help the disabled people. C. It responds to all the human orders. D. It is easier to keep at home.
51.The author seems to suggest that the future robotic dogs may ____. A. keep old people active B. cure certain diseases C. change people's beliefs D. look more like real dogs
Despite the high technology and investment in flood defences by the Environment Agency, there is no way to stop all flooding -- sooner or later nature will produce something that will beat even the strongest defences.
Warning people of this danger is very important if we are to prevent the great loss of life seen fifty-three years ago. Indeed if the Flood Warning System that currently exists had been around on that cold, stormy night in January 1953, many lives would have been spared. The Environment Agency took over the role of flood warning in 1995 from the police who had to go door to door or sound alarms to get the news out. The service is being constantly improved and a combination of better technology and increased investment following the Easter Floods of 1998 has led to the creation of Floodline and an automatic messaging system that can warn thousands of people in very little time.
Floodline 0845 988 1188 offers information and advice 24 hours a day and if warnings are in place, callers can get information either from local updates or by using a quickdial code for their area.
The Flood Warning team in Kent has also sent letters to the people living close to the rivers or the sea and invited them to join the AVM (automated voice messaging) system. Anyone choosing to take up this free service will receive a recorded message directly to their home, business or pager telling them of the level of warning, giving them as much time as possible to carry out their flood plan and save items that cannot be replaced if lost or damaged, such as photographs or children’s favorite toys.
52.Choose the correct statements from the following according to the passage. a. Many people lost their lives in the flood in 1953.
b. The Flood Warning system was already in use in 1953. c. Flood defences can stop all flooding.
d. The Environment Agency began to warn people of flood in 1995. e. Floodline was created after the Easter Floods of 1998. A. a, b, c B. b, c, d C. a, d, e D. a, c, e
53.What does the underlined word \"pager\" mean in the passage? A. A piece of equipment designed to receive and show messages. B. A boy employed to carry luggage in hotels. C. A page of papers written to offer messages. D. A person, invited to write pages of messages.
54.People can easily get information and advice about flood any time of the day from____. A. automatic messaging system
B. automated voice messaging system C. the Flood Warning team in Kent D. Floodline 0845 988 1188
55.The best title for this passage may probably be ____. A. Environment Agency B. Flood Warning System C. Technology In Flood Defences D. Easter Floods 56.The President thanked the mothers for their sons and daughters ____ (保卫) their country heart and soul.
57.Snowden said he did not think his son had ____ (犯罪) a crime, even though he said Edward Snowden broke U.S. laws.
58.In order to attract more customers some airlines offer free check-in____ (行李). 59.The committee has proposed new ____ (规章) to control the hours of its employees. 60.When ____ (回报) with a quicker sale he made the extra effort to impress the buyers with his products.
61.What ____ (担心) teachers and employers deeply is that students are not well prepared for university courses.
62.A tight ____ (日程表) means we can’t delay any longer.
63.Now we are trying to build a country where the people can live in peace and ____ (和谐) with ourselves and those around us.
64.Though there are some people protesting against the plan, they are in the ____ (少数). 65.There are many approaches to ____ (调整) their way of working and thinking according to changing situations.

There is a common phenomenon nowadays that parents arrange everything for their children and try to pave the way for their success, which is of great concern.
I’m strongly opposed to this kind of “love”. For one thing, children become so reliant on their parents that they have no independent thought or creative ideas. For another, overprotection and too much care are extremely bad for children’s development.
Only by encouraging the children to overcome difficulties and develop by themselves can they grow up to be independent and become truly successful. 【解析】

Good morning, everyone! My topic today is “Teamwork”.
In this modern world, if we want to be informed or complete our work better and more efficiently, there is an urgent need for all of us to learn to cooperate with others. Not only can cooperation save us a lot of time, energy and resources, but also we can learn much from each other.
We’ll be lucky enough to find someone who holds the same belief to cooperate with due to the fact that we can understand each other and share our joy and sorrow happily. However, it can be difficult to cooperate with someone who is different from us in many respects. In this case, we'll have to learn to put up with some of his shortcomings and try to discover his advantages.
In my opinion, teamwork means we should try to listen to others’ opinions, never force our ideas on others and if he makes mistakes, try to point them out in a polite way. Thanks for your listening! 【解析】
