　　第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项

　　A

　　One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire-crackling, snapping, trailblazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again—the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.

　　I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadows-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive. Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant's stomach, the forest was silent.

　　Gradually, the tension slipped from our bodies. The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth. I reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant's neck; there was a soft part, free of wrinkles and hairs, behind her ear.

　　This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett, although I saw no tigers in the end. Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains, Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts( 出没处), a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity. Still, I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear. If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger, I could have gone to a zoo. After all, spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty; tracking them can make you aware of something more.

　　Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?

　　A. The elephant stopped.

　　B. A spotted deer called.

　　C. The elephant seized a branch.

　　D. The forest was silent for a while.

　　The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by____.

　　A. describing various sounds

　　B. comparing different animals

　　C. listing different activities

　　D. introducing various plants

　　What does the underlined part "to sense the aura" most probably mean?

　　A. To see the diversity.

　　B. To enjoy the scenery.

　　C. To feel the atmosphere.

　　D. To experience the freedom.

　　How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?

　　A. Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.

　　B. It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.

　　C. It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.

　　D. The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.

　　B

　　As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational , Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

　　In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations _UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.

　　Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Centre ,Yale University, who specializes in the languages and

　　oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.

　　Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India , Nepal, Bhutan, and China . But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.

　　At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials-including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.

　　Now, through the two organizations that he has founded –the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project —Turin has started a campaign to make such documents,found in libraries and stores around

　　the world available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.

　　Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.

　　Many scholars are making efforts to ______.

　　A. promote global languages

　　B. rescue disappearing languages

　　C. search for language communities

　　D. set up language research organizations.

　　What does “that tradition’ in Paragraph 3 refer to ?

　　A. Having full records of the languages

　　B. Writing books on language teaching.

　　C. Telling stories about language users

　　D. Living with the native speaker.

　　What is Turin’s book based on?

　　A. The cultual studies

　　B. The documents available at Yale.

　　C. His language research in Bhutan.

　　D. His personal experience in Nepal.

　　Which of the following best describe Turin’s work?

　　A. Write, sell and donate.

　　B. Record, repair and reward.

　　C. Collect, protect and reconnect.

　　D. Design, experiment and report.

　　C

　　Organizing Yourself

　　Many new students find it hard to do all the study that has to be done; they find themselves putting off reading assignment, jumping from one subject to another and rarely being quite certain what they are trying to do during a particular study session. The best way to overcome these difficulties and to start studying efficiently is to plan your time and organize your work. Let us suppose that you have 15 hours per week of classes and that you decide to allow yourself a 40

　　hour working week (a reasonable figure, leaving you 70 waking hours for other activities).

　　You now have to decide how to divide the remaining 25 hours of private study. Naturally the decisions you make will change from week to week according to what essays have to be written and what reading has to be done. Many people find it helpful to draw up each week a sevenday timetable showing the occasions on which they will be working privately and the particular subjects that will be studying on each occasion. By checking such a plan at times during the week, you can see what you have done and what you have still to do：the whole plan becomes more manageable. There are a number of places where you can study—college library, public library, home, empty classrooms, on bus or train—and each has several obvious advantages and disadvantages. The college library is least busy in the evening, on Wednesday afternoon, and all day Friday and Saturday.

　　When you are deciding where to study, keep the following suggestions in mind:

　　1）Try to study always in the same place. After a while the familiar surroundings will help you to switch into the right frame of mind as soon as you sit down.

　　2）Find somewhere with as little disturbance as possible.

　　3）Make sure that your study place has a good light and is warm (but not too warm) and well aired.

　　What’s the main idea of this passage?

　　APlan your time and organize your work.

　　BOvercome your difficulties.

　　CBe certain what you can do.

　　DFind a quiet place for study.

　　A student’s organization of his work will need to change according to.

　　Ahow many hours he is awake

　　Bhow many subjects are required

　　Chow many lectures he misses

　　Dwhat he has to write and read that week

　　A student is advised to make a weekly plan and to check it from time to time in order to.

　　Asee whether he has calculated it properly

　　Bsee what day of the week is

　　Csee what work still needs doing

　　Dsee how he feels at the whole week

　　Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a place where you can study?

　　AThe bus.

　　BA public house.

　　CHome.

　　DThe train.
