　　第三部分 阅读理解（每小题2分，分）

　　For centuries, men at sea have told stories about their experiences of seeing sea monsters like sea snakes and big whales. These stories are often considered as folk tales (民间传说）rather than real experiences. However, the large number of sightings and the use of modern technology are changing this attitude, making us wonder if those men were telling real experiences.

　　The following are some of the most well-known cases about sea monsters living in the oceans. On August 6, 1848, in the Atlantic Ocean, seven men reported that they saw a creature about 60 feet long. The creature’s body was dark brown in color except for its white throat area. The creature was swimming at a speed of 15 miles per hour with its head above the water.

　　In 1961, Mrs. Stoudt and her sister were walking with their children along a strait in Washington D.C. when they saw something like a tree branch in the water. As the object moved closer to them, they saw a creature, which had a snake-like head and 3 humps（峰）. They said it looked like some sort of dinosaur. Then it moved even closer to them. Its frightening look made one of Mrs. Stoudt’s children cry.

　　On December 12, 1964, French photographer Robert Serrec was having a holiday in Queensland, Australia. He was out off the coast in small boats with his family and friends. Suddenly, they noticed a creature, about 75-80 feet long. They described it as a tadpole-like（像蝌蚪的）creature with a snake-like head. They took pictures of the creature before it swam off.

　　56. Which of the following statements about the 1848 sea monster is NOT true?

　　A. It was about sixty feet long.

　　B. It kept its head above the water when it swam.

　　C. Its whole body was dark brown.

　　D. It was found in the Atlantic Ocean.

　　57. It can be inferred from the passage that ____.

　　A. the 1848 sea monster swam faster than the 1961 and the 1964 sea monsters

　　B. the three sea monsters mentioned in the passage each had a snake-like head

　　C. the 1964 sea monster was longer than the 1848 sea monster

　　D. Robert Serrec went to Australia in order to see a sea monster

　　58. The writer’s purpose in writing the passage is ____.

　　A. to show people the danger of traveling by sea

　　B. to tell us that sea monster stories might be true

　　C. to explain why people are afraid of sea monsters

　　D. to tell people where they can find sea monsters

　　Every year 2.2 million tons of oil are spilled ( 散落，溅出 ) into the ocean. Actually, this only amounts to a small percentage of the total 1.6 billion tons of oil shipped around the world each year. However, this spilled oil has terrible effects on ocean life, including the coastlines where the off washes up onto shore. Some of the largest spills in history were caused by oil tankers running into each other or by an oil tanker sailing into shallow water and hitting the bottom of the ocean. After these spills, officials try to discover who or what was at fault to help prevent similar accidents in the future.

　　One of the worst oil spills in history occurred along the Alaskan coastline in 1989. In this accident, 42,000 tons of oil spilled from a tanker which resulted in terrible damage to this sensitive natural area. In this spill, the tanker's captain, who was tired from overwork and drinking alcohol, had gone to take a rest. He gave control of the ship to the third mate. The third mate was unfamiliar with the path the ship took, and he ran the ship onto Blighe Reef. Blighe Reef is a natural underwater rock wall near the Alaskan coast. Damaged by the reef, the ship leaked oil out into the ocean. More than 1,600 kilometers of coastline were affected by the oil spill. Some scientists who studied nature in the area guessed that 580,000 birds and 5,500 otters died when the oil from the spill covered their skin. As well, smaller shellfish and other sea creatures were later eaten by seals, whales, and other animals.

　　The most oil ever spilled was actually dumped on purpose as an act of ecological warfare. The term ecological warfare means to fight by doing harm to nature in the area under attack. In 1990, Iraq sent soldiers into Kuwait and set off the Persian Gulf War. As part of the Iraq war plan, 900,000 tons of oil were let out into the Persian Gulf Way Iraq. This oil covered 1,500 square kilometers of water in the Persian Gulf. The oil also damaged 650 kilometers of the coastline of both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. In some places, oil floating on the water was measured to be 43 centimeters thick. Water birds, water plants, and baby fish were all seriously affected by the oil. The long-term effects of this act on the food chain in the area are bound to cause problems tar into the future.

　　67. Which cause of oil spills is described in the second paragraph?

　　A. Dumping

　　B. War

　　C. Accidents

　　D. Throwing about carelessly

　　68. The creatures affected by the oil spill near Alaska were_________.

　　A. birds and otters

　　B. shellfish

　　C. seals and whales

　　D. all of the above

　　69. The third mate ran the tanker aground (触礁) in this accident because_______.

　　A. he was tired

　　B. he did not know the sea

　　C. he was drunk

　　D. he was talking on the phone

　　70. ________ was responsible for dumping oil into the Persian Gulf.

　　A. Iraq

　　B. The United States

　　C. Kuwait

　　D .Saudi Arabia

　　第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）

　　认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。

　　Good study habits will contribute to a successful academic future. Good study habits lead to good grades, and good grades lead to applications for better colleges and universities. This in turn will lead to a great career.

　　To be successful, the first thing you need to do is to take responsibility for your actions. You are the only one who can decide your own important things and how to use your time. Your actions today will decide what will happen tomorrow and even in the near future.

　　Your success rests in your own hands. Do not be influenced by others. Be a leader, not a follower. Do not allow your friends to tell you what is important. Keep friends who lead you towards your goals, not away from them.

　　The most important thing to learn to succeed in the classroom is to make full use of your time outside the classroom. Review your class notes and the proper chapters (章节) in your textbooks. Different people work better at different times. Some students work better in the morning, while some can study better in the afternoon, or at night. Nightly review of your notes is a great idea and will help you understand your lessons to a much greater degree. This review will save time in the long run. If you study in the morning, plan to study your hardest subjects first. If you prepare for your lessons in advance, you will be more relaxed in classes.

　　Set the more important things into your plan, have a to-do list and put the most important project first. Once this is done, move to the second most important project. Crossing off each project as you finish will give you a sense of achievement.

　　Choose a study place where you can be comfortable and pay attention to other things that help to improve your productivity (效率). For example, can you study well with soft music in the background?

　　Always challenge yourself. Do not be satisfied with your own school textbooks. Ask questions and do your own research. Share your knowledge and listen to others. When you share your knowledge, you help others increase their knowledge. As an unexpected result, when you help others, you learn more.

　　Always seek solutions to problems. If you have difficulty understanding something in the book, read it again. If you still cannot understand it, ask the teacher for help. Make sure to look for help immediately or you may fall behind.

　　When you put your best effort into you work, you are already a success! When you follow these study habits successfully, you will develop a sense of satisfaction. This will provide you with a strong feeling of pride because of your achievement. Your good grades will give you confidence for the future. These habits will contribute to a successful and happy future!

　　Title The (71) _____ of good study habits

　　Reason In order to have a great career in the future, we need to form good study habits, which (72) _________ to a successful academic future.

　　(76) ______ ·Be responsible for yourself and don’t be influenced by others.

　　· (73) _____ your spare time reviewing what you have learnt in class.

　　·Make (74) _____ ahead of time so that you will feel relaxed.

　　·Put the most important projects into your (75) _____ and cross off one when you finish it.

　　·Choose to study in a (77) _____ place.

　　·Learn to (78) _____ yourself and share your knowledge with others.

　　·Learn to turn to others for help and try to (79) _____ the problems when facing difficulties.

　　Conclusion ·With these good study habits, you will develop a sense of satisfaction.

　　·With these habits, your good grades will make you feel (80) _____ and confident.

　　·With these habits, You will have a successful and happy future.

　　Dear_Jenny，

　　I_have_got_a_problem_and_I_need_to_ask_for_your_help. I feel I am a little too fat. What's worse，I am putting on weight all the time. I am very worried about my figure and how I look. I even fear that some of my classmates may laugh at me.

　　At one time，I tried to work out in a gym two or three times，but I finally gave up just because I had no time for it and always felt very tired after doing exercise. Once I tried going on a diet. However，after about a week，I could not go on because I felt so hungry that I was not able to continue my studies. Then I bought and took weight-loss pills in secret. Before long，they did work and I was losing weight fast. But soon I felt tired and weak sometimes.

　　I know those pills usually have bad side effects on my health. Thus，I don't know what I should do. Could you be kind enough to give me some good advice?

　　Yours，

　　Li_Hua
