以下是一些新聞報(bào)道的信息:
A.Science magazine published the study about orangutans. The scientists collected evidence from years of observations in six areas on Borneo and Sumatra. The scientists found that the animals demonstrated a total of twenty-four signs of cultural activity. Several actions were demonstrated in some orangutan groups, but not others.
B.The Environmental Investigation Agency and Telapak released the report. Telapak is an environmental group based in Indonesia. The Environmental Investigation Agency operates in several countries. The two groups say Indonesia controls ten percent of the world's tropical rainforests.
C.Richard Sandor is the chairman of the C-C-X. He praised the companies forming the group for demonstrating leadership. He said they believe that an active way to deal with global warning helps everyone. The group said its members want to reduce costs they may face from future rules on greenhouse gas emissions. Trading credits may help businesses find the most effective methods to reduce pollution. Members also hope to improve their public image on environmental issues.
D.Their most detailed effort involved ninety-nine kinds of birds, insects and plants in North America and Europe. They found that the territory where these plants and animals live has moved north by an average of six kilometers every ten years. In Europe, some butterflies now live as much as one hundred kilometers to the north because of changes linked to higher temperatures.
E. The new report says many areas experienced unusual weather in two thousand and two. Most of Asia, for example, was warmer than usual. India had unusually high temperatures in April and May. The extremely hot weather caused hundreds of deaths. There also were extremely dry conditions across India. Parts of Africa experienced unusual heavy rains. Yet other areas in Africa had unusual dry weather.
F. Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe. Hydrogen is a colorless gas. On Earth, it is present in large amounts in natural gas, coal, plants and water. By weight, hydrogen produces the highest energy levels of any known fuel. When burned in an engine, hydrogen releases no harmful pollution into the environment. When powering a fuel cell, the only waste is water. However, hydrogen is difficult to store. It also burns easily.

51. A severe ocean storm hit South Korea in August. It set a new national record for rainfall. In central Europe, more than one hundred people died in flooding caused by heavy rainfall in September. The flooding also resulted in thousands of millions of dollars in property damage. Yet large parts of North and South America had extremely dry weather.
52. One member of the Chicago Climate Exchange is American Electric Power. It's the biggest owner of electric power producers in the United States. Company officials say they hope their company's membership will demonstrate the ability of the C-C-X to grow.
53. For example, members of some groups make a kissing noise by tightening their mouths and sucking in air. Some groups use leaves to clean themselves or protect their hands from sharp objects. The scientists found that some of the animals use sticks as tools to remove insects from holes in trees. Other orangutans use leaves to crush insects or gather water.  
54. Professors Parmesan and Yohe used similar methods to examine one hundred and seventy-two kinds of wildlife. They examined the timing of events in the spring, such as the appearance of flowers and the reproduction of animals. They found that these events happened an average of two days earlier than normal every ten years.
55. They say illegal operations to remove trees are causing large areas of forest to disappear. Environmental Investigation Agency director Dave Currey says the illegal operations are completely out of control.

注意:每空一詞。
Boys do worse in English when there are girls in their class, a research student said. This finding disagrees with the widely held belief that girls always have a good influence on boys in school.
Boys do best with as few girls as possible in English lessons at primary and secondary schools, Steven Proud, a research student at Bristol University, told the Royal Economic Society’s conference.
But when it comes to math and science, both boys and girls at primary schools achieve up to a tenth of a grade higher when there is a greater percentage of girls in the class, Proud found.
Proud kept a record of boys’ and girls’ test results at the ages of 7, 11, and 16 in 16,000 schools in England. He studied the test scores to see whether the percentage of girls made a difference to the results of both boys and girls in math, science and English.
Boys always perform worse when the number of girls they study English with increases, which is especially the case at primary schools. Proud also found that girls are unaffected by the number of boys in their English class.
Proud said boys may do worse in English when there is high proportion of girls in their class because they think that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate to girls when there more girls than boys in the class.
Proud argues that his results show boys should be taught English in single—sex classes.
However, Professor Alan Smithers, director of the Centre for Education and Employment Research at the University of Buckingham, said, “Boys may be discouraged by how well girls are doing in English, but you can’t say that it means boys and girls should be separated. It has very little practical importance to schools.”

第二節(jié):根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中為每段選出最佳的段落大意。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)是多余項(xiàng)。(共5小題,每小題2分,共1 0分)
A.Make posters and signs catchy and helpful
B.Build your network and remind them to vote
C.Be confident in yourself all the time
D.Give a great speech with full preparations
E.What if I don’t win?
F.You can win as long as you try your best
G.Determine your issues and keep your promises
Convincing people to vote for you is probably the scariest part of an election.The best strategy is to show your fellow students that you will do a good job.How do you do this?
61._________________________________________
Think about why you want to run and what you want to do if you win.These are your issues.Then let people know what you will do if elected.When you do this, be careful not to make promises you can’t keep.Make sure your issues affect all students.If you promise to try to get the whole school painted your favourite color, students probably won’t vote for you.But, if you promise to get rid of that yucky(令人反感的)lunch menu item that no one likes, or raise money for more computers in the library, students will see that you are interested in things they care about, and they’ll vote for you.
62.____________________________________________
Keep it short, simple, and interesting, and students will remember you.Start by writing down your issues and the reasons you think you’re a good person for the job.This is the heart of the speech and will convince other students to vote for you.Start with a story to get people listening and then move on to your issues.Practice your speech so you get used to it, and you won’t be as nervous.Ask your parents or friends to listen a couple of times before the big day.When the time comes to give your speech, relax.You’ll be ready and the other students will notice.
63._____________________________________________
One of the best ways to get people to vote for you is to talk to them about it.Ask your friends to help.In many elections, people don’t vote at all.If you take the time to talk to them ,and remind them to vote, you’ll increase your chances of winning.Remind them why you’re running, and why they should vote for you.They’ll appreciate that you took the time to talk to them in person.And they’ll probably remember your name on the ballot(選票)!
64._____________________________________________
When you make your campaign posters, use a catchy slogan that helps other students remember your name.It can help you win votes.If you have trouble coming up with a catchy slogan, try searching the Internet.Don’t depend solely on posters.Your fellow students have to know why you’re running, and that’s why your speech and networking are so important.
65._______________________________________________
If you keep these things in mind, you can win your election.Just remember that you have to be prepared to work hard to help your fellow students improve your school.
If you don’t win, remember there are always other ways to get involved and make a difference.If students see that you get things done, you could easily win the next time.
