Most of us have three meals a day. We take food for granted (想当然). And we dont think about it. 31 experts argue a food crisis (危机) is coming. This crisis is going to make us 32
the way we think about food.
Food is in great need 33 a growing of world population. By 1960, the population was three billion. It doubled to six billion by 1999. By 2050, this planet will need to 34 at least nine billion people. As a result, the food prices will get higher and higher.
So, what can a 35 , crowed world do? One suggestion is to eat less meat. Meat uses more natural resources (资源) than grains (谷物). It requires more 36 to produce one pound of meat than to produce one pound of grain. It also requires between 5 and 10 times more water than vegetables. So, eating less meat will 37
more land for farming, and it will save water.
To eat less meat, people will need to change their eating habits. That will not be easy. Americans, for example, have 38 loved meat. In general, they eat twice as much meat as people in other countries. At the same time, in developing countries like China and Brazil, sales of meat have doubled in the last 20 years. 39 will double again by 2050. Growing need of meat will continue to put pressure on natural resources.
World population is increasing, resources are becoming fewer, and food prices are rising. Therefore, we need to rethink what we eat every day. For meat lovers, we dont need to give up meat 40 . But we need to eat more grains and less meat.
31. A. And B. But
C. Or
32. A. change B. find
C. get
33. A. instead of B. thanks to
C. because of
34. A. help B. have
C. feed
35. A. busy B. tired
C. hungry
36. A. time B. land
C. people
37. A. provide B. produce
C. waste
38. A. never B. seldom
C. always

C. We

C. finally
三、阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的三个选项(A、B、C)中,选出最佳选项。
A
When you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed (责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write but they have to remember things, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering things in a way as other people do.
41. Someone cant have a good memory if ____.
A. his parents dont have a good memory
B. he cant read or write
C. he doesnt use his memory
42. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ____.
A. they will become weak and wont become strong until you use them again
B. they will become stronger
C. they will become weak but they slowly become strong again
43. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Your memory works in the different way as your arms or legs.
B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you do not give it enough chance to practice.
C. Dont learn how to read or write if you want to have a better memory.
44. Few people know that it is only ____, if a person has a poor memory.
A. his grandparents fault
B. his parents fault
C. his own fault
45. The writer wants to tell us ____.
A. how to have a good memory
B. how to read and write
C. how to use our arms or legs

What shaking the head means is not always the same in different countries. Maybe some vis-itors would be surprised when they first come to India. When they talk to an Indian, they would find he would often shake his head. The visitors might think that the Indian doesnt like what they say. But in fact, they would be completely wrong.
Indians always shake their heads when they talk to others. It doesnt mean “No”. If someone wants to visit India, he should know this, or he will be in trouble.
One day, a foreign officer went to India on business. He hired a car and asked an Indian to drive him. When he told his driver to take him to his office, the Indian shook his head at once. The officer said again and the driver shook his head again. At last the officer, of course, got angry.
“How dare you refuse my order?” he shouted. “Drive me to my office at once!”
The driver answered in quite a loud voice, too. “Yes, sir!” But to the officers surprise, the driver shook his head at the same time.
The car started and the foreign officer was now too surprised to say a word. He thought about it for a while, and then he nodded with a smile, “‘No means ‘Yes here!”
46. What does shaking ones head mean all over the world?
A. Yes. B. No.
C. Yes or No.
47. What should you do in India if you agree with somebody?
A. Shake your head.
B. Nod your head.
C. Speak in a loud voice.
48. Why did the officer go to India?
A. He went there to visit his friend.
B. He went there because of his job.
C. He went there to learn driving.
49. Why did the officer get angry?
A. Because the driver didnt understand him.
B. Because the driver still shook his head after he said again.
C. Because the driver didnt like the officer.
50. What can we learn from the story?
A. When you are in India,you should always shake your head.

阅读下面的短文,完成相关任务。
You may think its difficult for them to sleep, but they have no such problems because giraffes dont often stop for a snooze (打盹). As they are so tall— males can grow up to 18 feet, giraffes actually have the shortest sleep requirement of all mammals (哺乳动物), with an average (平均) of half an hour a day. When they sleep, they seldom lie down and sleep for minutes at a time, since its difficult for them to get up again and its dangerous in the wild. But the giraffe in the zoo sleeps around 4.6 hours per day, mostly at night. It usually sleeps lying down.
Drinking water may cause problems for the animals because their long necks are too short to reach the ground. To drink they must spread their legs in an uncomfortable position, which makes them easily hunted by other animals like Africas big cats. As a result, they get most of their water from the plants that they eat. They only need to drink water every few days.
