. The skull (头骨) of a man had been mixed with the jawbone of an orangutan (猩猩) to make the ape (猿) man. The next time you read the exciting new findings of a study of the best scientist, do not automatically assume that it is true. Even qualified people can get it wrong. Though we certainly should not ignore scientific research, we do need to take it with a grain of salt. Just because it is accepted as the truth today does not mean it will still be trustworthy tomorrow.[Z-X-X-K]9. What is the reason why Johann Beringer was fooled? A. His fellow scientists wanted to make fun of him. B. His workmates are eager to become famous too. C. These scientists made a mistake because of carelessness. 11\nD. His colleagues was jealous of him and did so to destroy his fame. 10. The excited scientists thought that this Piltdown man ________. A. was in fact a complex hoax B. was a great scientific invention C. contributed to the theory of evolution D. had the skull like that of an ape  11. What does the underlined phrase “with a grain of salt” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Happily. B. Generally. C. Doubtfully. D. Completely. 12. What can we learn from the passage? A. Hebrew is probably a kind of language. B. Truths of science will never be out of time. C. People believe scientists because they are persuasive. D. We are advised to believe famous scientists.DMore students than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年) before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year. This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service (UCAS). That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony 11\nHiggins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said. But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship – young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university with up to ￡15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. statistics show that over 40% of students  are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,” he said. 13. What do we learn about the gap year from the text? A. It is flexible in length. B. It is a time for relaxation. C. It is increasingly popular. D. It is required by universities. 14. According to Tony Higgins, students taking a gap year_________. A. are better prepared for college studies 11\nB. know a lot more about their future jobs C. are more likely to leave university in debt D. have a better chance to enter top universities 15. What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics? A. Attend additional courses. B. Make plans for the new term. C. Earn money for their education. D. Prepare for their graduate studies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。Doyouconstantlyusethecomputer,whetherforlearningorentertainment?Computersgiveoffradiationthatisbadforyourhealth,butherearesomewaystoprotectyourselffromcomputerradiation.____16_____GreenteacanbeabsorbedbythebodyeasilyintoaformofvitaminA,whichhelpsreduceradiation._____17____Itisadvisabletoattacharadiationfilterplate（辐射过滤板）infrontofyourcomputer’sscreen.Makesuretoavoidputtinganymetalsubstancesnearyourcomputerasthesemayhavereflectedsomeoftheelectromagneticwavesthatareharmfultoyourhealth.______18______Thebrighterthescreenthehighertheradiationtherewillbeandviceversa.Youcanalsoputsomeradiation-absorbingplantssuchasseveralcactinearyourcomputertopreventradiation.Makesureyoudoaskincareprotectionbeforesittinginfrontofthecomputer.________19_____Washyourfacesoonafterusingthecomputerinordertoreduce70%oftheradiation.______20_____Oldcomputeringeneral,hasonetotwotimesmoreradiationsreleasedthanthenewonewithinthesamedistance.A．Andadjustthebrightnessofyourcomputerscreen.B．Applyalayeroffacialmasktoprotectyourself.C．Andadjustthesoundlevelonyourcomputer.11\nD．Themostefficientwayisbydrinkingsomecoffeeregularly.[Z-X-X-K]E.Thesimplestwayisbydrinking2&3cupsofgreenteaeveryday.F.Ifpossible,purchaseanewcomputerinsteadofusinganoldmodelcomputer.G.Italsohelpskeepoureyesseethingsclearlyinthedarkbyimprovingthevisualability.第二部分　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。Iwasasingleparentoffoursmallchildren,workingatalow-paidjob.Moneywasalwaystight,butwehada21overourheads,foodonthetable,clothesonourbacks,andifnotalot,always22.Notknowingwewerepoor,mykids(孩子们)justthoughtIwas23.I’vealwaysbeengladaboutthat.ItwasChristmastime,andalthoughtherewasn’t24foralotofgifts,weplannedtocelebratewithafamilyparty.Butthebig25forthekidswasthefunofChristmas26.Theyplannedweeksaheadoftime,asking27whattheywantedforChristmas.Fortunately,Ihadsaved$120for28tosharebyallfiveofus.Thebig29arrived.Igaveeachkidatwenty-dollarbilland30themtolookforgiftsofaboutfourdollarseach.Theneveryonescattered(散开).Wehadtwohourstoshop;thenwewould31backatthe“Santa’sWorkshop”.Drivinghome,everyonewasinhighChristmasspirits,32myyoungerdaughter,Ginger,whowasunusually33.Shehadonlyonesmall,flatbagwithafewcandies—fifty-centcandies!Iwassoangry,butIdidn’tsayanything34wegothome.Icalledherintomybedroomandclosedthedoor,35tobeangryagain.Thisiswhatshetoldme:“Iwaslooking36thinkingofwhattobuy,andI37toreadt
