Ⅵ.阅读理解
How many people have I met who have told me about the book they have been planning to write but have never yet found the time? Far too many.
This is life，all right，but we do treat it like a rehearsal(排演) and，unhappily，we do miss so many of its best moments.
We take jobs to stay alive and provide homes for our families，always making ourselves believe that this style of life is only a temporary(暂时的) state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do.Then，at 60 or 65，we are suddenly given a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize that all those years waiting for Real Life to come along were in fact real life.
In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English: “Have a nice day.” They speak slowly and seriously in their shops，hotels and sandwich bars.I think it is a wonderful phrase，making us remember，in effect，to enjoy the moment：to value this very day.
How often do we say to ourselves，“I’ll take up horseriding(or golf，or sailing) as soon as I get a greater job.” But only to do none of those things when we do get the higher position.
When I first became a reporter I knew a man who gave up a very wellpaid respectable job at Daily Telegraph to go and work for a small weekly newspaper.At the time I was surprised by his decision: Why was he in this completely abnormal mental(精神) state? How could anyone turn his back on Fleet Street in central London for a small area in the countryside? I wanted to know.
Now when I am a little older and possibly wiser，I see the sense in it.In Fleet Street the man was under continuous pressure.He lived in an unattractive London suburb and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern Region trains to and back from his work.
1．The first paragraph of the passage tells us that .
A．we always try to find some time to write a book
B．we always make plans but seldom complete them
C．we always enjoy many of life’s best moments
D．we always do what we really want to do
2．The underlined phrase “turn his back on” in Paragraph 6 most probably means “ ”．
A．leave for B．return to
C．rely on D．give up
3．The man who worked at Daily Telegraph left his job because he was .
A．under too much pressure B．in an abnormal mental state
C．not wellpaid D．not respected
4．What is probably the best title for the passage?
A．Provide Homes for Our Families B．Take Up HorseRiding
C．Value This Very Day D．Stay Alive
Ⅶ.七选五
Human beings learn technology from nature.They tend to imitate it. 1 It did take us a while to learn，though.However，not until the midtwentieth century was the word “biomimicry(仿生学)” first introduced.
One of the first examples would be the invention of Velcro(魔术贴)，a material that was born after a walk in the countryside by an engineer and his dog.On returning home，he found his socks were filled with little burrs(带芒刺的小果实)． 2 They were covered by many tiny hooks(钩)．He used those qualities for some kind of fabric.And then Velcro was born.
3 A highspeed train used to create great noise while exiting a tunnel because of the air pressure.Eiji Nakatsu，an engineer and birdlover，was inspired by the kingfisher’s beak(鸟嘴)，able to dive into the water at great speed with almost no friction，to create a new design.That’s how the modern bullet train，much more efficient and quieter，was born.
Secondly，there would be the imitation of nature’s strategies and mechanisms.For instance，dolphins have mastered the art of sending out ultrasound(超声波) without disturbing each other.A team of researchers have analyzed the way dolphins adjust these frequencies. 4
Finally，there’s the imitation of the efficiency within an ecosystem. 5 For example，the street is full of tiny holes to empty water in flooding seasons and the foundations of buildings grasp the hillsides like the roots of trees.
A．One is the imitation of shapes.
B．People imitate forests to build cities.
C．For instance，birds taught people to fly.
D．He decided to get rid of these little burrs.
E．Then he bent down to inspect them closely.
F．Urban areas consume more energy than rural areas.
G．Based on the analysis，they designed a tsunami alarm system.
