Elion spent her early youth in Manhattan. She attended senior high school and had, in her words, an unbelievable thirst for knowledge. Influenced by the death of her grandfather, who died of cancer, Elion entered Hunter College at the age of 15 and graduated in chemistry at the age of 19. She had difficulty finding employment after graduation because many laboratories refused to hire women chemists. She found a part-time job as a lab assistant and went back to school at New York University. Elion worked as a high school teacher for a few years after finishing work on her master's degree. The start of World War II created more opportunities for women. At the age of 26, Elion was able to get a job at Burroughs Welcome, where she began a 40-year partnership with Dr. George H. Hitchings. Her thirst for knowledge impressed Dr. Hitchings, and he permitted her to take on more responsibility. Elion and Hitchings set out on a course of creating medicines by studying the chemical composition of diseased cells. Rather than relying on old trial-and-error methods, they used the differences in biochemistry between normal human cells and pathogens(病原体) to design medicines. In all, Elion obtained 45 patents on medicine and was awarded 23 honorary degrees. In 1988, Elion received the Nobel Prize for Medicine, together with George H. Hitchings and Sir James Black. She received other awards for her work, including the National Medal of Science in 1991, and that same year, she became the first woman to be absorbed into the National Inventors Hall of Fame. In 1997, she was awarded the Lemelson-MIT Lifetime Achievement Award.24. What can we say about Elion as a high school student?A. She had a satisfying part-time job.B. She had a strong desire for learning.C. She had a gift for chemistry at high school.D. She made great achievements in chemistry.25. Why did Elion choose to study chemistry at college?A. To meet her grandfather's wish.B. To find a good job after graduation.C. To create medicines to cure diseases.D. To be a chemistry teacher in the future.26. When did Elion start working for Burroughs Welcome?A. In 1944.B. In 1937.C. In 1933.D. In 1984.27. What does the author mainly tell us about Elion in the last paragraph?A. Her later life.B. Her contributions.C. Her interest in chemistry.D. Her honors.C“In wilderness is the preservation of the world.” This is a famous saying from a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalism. The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved.As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a strong appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger exploitation(开发) brings to such landscapes is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need—the rain forests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. To Mr. Sauven, these “ecosystem services” far outweigh the gains from exploitation.Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services, such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives, rather than merely struggle for survival. While the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing need for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in abundance. If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no further reason not to do so. Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others.I look forwards to seeing these views taken further, and to their being challenged by the other participants. One challenge that suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the question of spiritual value a little more directly. And there is a practical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm.This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feelings, but also the guidance of reason. What position wilderness should enjoy in the preservation of the world obviously deserves much more serious thinking.28．John Sauven holds that .A. many people value nature too muchB. exploitation of wildernesses is harmfulC. wildernesses provide humans with necessitiesD. the urge to develop the ecosystem services is strong29．What is the main idea of Para. 3?A. The exploitation is necessary for the poor people.B. Wildernesses cannot guarantee better use of raw materials.C. Useful services of wildernesses are not the reason for no exploitation.D. All the characteristics concerning the exploitation should be treated equally.30．What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?A. Objective.B. Disapproving.C. Skeptical.D. Optimistic.31．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D.CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C: ConclusionDIt’s known to all that coffee can make you feel more awake, and now it seems that coffee may also improve your maths skills. And the best news is that you don’t even need to drink it to see the improvements — you just need to smell it. Coffee is actually very healthy. It is loaded with antioxidants and beneficial nutrients that can improve your health. The studies show that coffee drinkers have a much lower risk of developing several serious diseases.A new study by researchers from Stevens Institute of Technology has revealed that the scent of coffee may help your maths skills. Professor Adriana Madzharov, who led the study, said: “It’s not just that the coffee-like scent helped people perform better on analytical tasks, which was already interesting. But they also thought they would do better, and we proved that this expectation was at least partly responsible for their improved performance.”In the study, 100 business students took a 10-question algebra test. Half the group took the test in the presence of a coffee-like scent, while the other half took the test in an unscented room. The results revealed that the group in the coffee-smelling room scored significantly higher on the test than those in the unscented room.In a follow-up study, the researchers quizzed 200 new participants on their belief about various scents and their effects on human performance. Their answers showed that they believed they would feel alert in the presence of a coffee scent. This suggests that their expectations about performance may have influenced their improved skills.The researchers believe that the findings could have major effects on the real world. Professor Madzharov added: “Olfaction is one of our most powerful senses. Employers, architects, building developers, retail space managers and others can use subtle scents to help shape employees’ or occupants’ experience with their environment. It’s an area of great interest and potential.”32. Which of the following best explains “scent” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. smell. B. flavor C. taste. D. fragrant.33. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3?A. Summarize the previous paragraphs.B. Provide some evidence for the findings.C. Add some background information.D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.34. What can we infer from the passage?A. 200 new participants took a 10-question maths test.B. 100 business students thought they would feel more alert in the presence of a coffee scent.C. 150 new participants believed coffee have influenced their improved skills.D. 50 business students scored higher in the maths test with the presence of coffee than those without the scent of coffee.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Coffee is Very HealthyB The New Function of CoffeeC The New Findings of Coffee Will Affect the WorldD. The Scent of Coffee May Help One’s Maths Skills第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Taking a vacation with friends could turn out to be the getaway of a lifetime or one that’s a total disaster. How do you make sure the trip is a success? 36 . Here are some tips on planning a vacation with friends that’s memorable in the right kind of way.Establish expectations firstYou may think that you and a friend have the same idea of a holiday because you both want to go to the beach, but you might be interested in relaxing while your friend is looking forward to going to nightclubs. 37 or you are setting yourself up for conflict.Have an itinerary (旅行路线)When traveling with others, set an agenda ahead of time to avoid any last-minute, tense negotiation. Either work with a travel adviser to create the itinerary or delegate (委派) one person in the group for the job — it should show when activities start, and how long and what exactly they are. 38 .Build in some spaceYou don’t have to spend all your time with your friend. 39 . Order room service for breakfast one day or plan other meals and a few tours for just you and your family. But it’s best to schedule these ahead of time — not when you feel that you cannot spend another minute together. 40 Deciding who is paying for what and how it will be tracked should be discussed before your trip. You can end up with one person who doesn’t drink feeling angry that they are splitting the bills with people who order expensive bottles of wine, and this is the kind of anger that can destroy a friendship.A. Choose the ways to treat friendsB. Figure out money matters firstC. Make sure you understand each other’s ideas of vacationD. In fact, taking breaks makes your time together more enjoyableE. Different ways to parent may not matter at home but can be obvious on vacationsF. It’s all about choosing the right travel partners and going in with some ground rulesG. And everything should be optional, so whoever isn’t interested doesn’t have to join.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分；满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Roberta appeared on the stage.
