The discovery was made by researchers at York and Harvard Universities when they were examining the genetic relationship between the ancient woolly mammoth and mastodon to modern elephants—the Asian elephant, African forest elephant, and African savanna elephant. Once they obtained DNA sequences (序列)from two fossils (化石), mammoths and mastodons, the team compared them with DNA from modern elephants. They found to their amazement that modern forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths. The scientists used detailed genetic analysis to prove that the African savanna elephant and the African forest elephant have been distinct species for several million years. The divergence of the two species took place around the time of the divergence of Asian elephants and woolly mammoths. This result amazed all the scientists. There has long been debate in the scientific community that the two might be separate species, but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species. Previously, many naturalists believed that African savanna elephants and African forest elephants were two populations of the same species, despite the elephants' significant size differences. The savanna elephant has an average shoulder height of 3.5 metres while the forest elephant has an average shoulder height of 2.5 metres. The savanna elephant weighs between six and seven tons, roughly double the weight of the forest elephant. But the fact that they look so different does not necessarily mean they are different species. However the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA. Alfred Roca, assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois, said, “We now have to treat the forest and savanna elephants as two different units for conservation purposes. Since 1950, all African elephants have been conserved as one species. Now that we know the forest and savanna elephants are two very distinctive animals, the forest elephant should become a bigger priority (優(yōu)先) for conservation purposes.” 本文講述了一項新的科學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)：通過對非洲森林大象和非洲草原大象DNA的鑒定，科學(xué)家們得出結(jié)論：它們是兩種不同的物種。我們要保護這些珍稀動物。 1．One of the fossils studied by the researchers is that of ________ A．the Asian elephant B．the forest elephant C．the savanna elephant D．the mastodon elephant 答案：D。細節(jié)理解題。由第3段第一句話“...two fossils，mammoths and mastodons...”可知D項正確。 2．The underlined word “divergence”in Paragraph 4 means “________ ”． A．evolution B．exhibition C．separation D．examination 答案：C。詞義猜測題?？茖W(xué)家門一直在證明非洲森林大象和非洲草原大象是兩種不同的物種，他們之間的分歧使科學(xué)家們大為驚訝。 3．The researchers' conclusion was based on a study of the African elephant's ________. A．DNA B．height C．weight D．population 答案：A。細節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第二段最后一句話“However the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA”可知。 4．What are Alfred Roca's words mainly about? A．The conservation of African elephants. B．The purpose of studying African elephants. C．The way to divide African elephants into two units. D．The reason for the distinction of African elephants. 答案：A。推理判斷題。由文章最后一段“...for conservation purposes”可知A項正確。 5．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Naturalists' Beliefs about Elephants B．Amazing Experiments about Elephants C．An Unexpected Finding about Elephants D．A Long Scientific Debate about Elephants 答案：C。主旨大意題。全文講述了關(guān)于非洲大象的一項意外的發(fā)現(xiàn)。 閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中·選出最佳選項。 【2014高考訓(xùn)練】A Roger Colmer is a modem-day Horatio Alger hero．Roger started out as an unpaid worker in a small flower shop．He has become the owner of a florist company whose sales are well over $l00，000 a year． One day when Roger was only twelve，he stopped at a local flower shop．He asked the owner if he could work fur him，without pay, in order to learn the business．Roger started working every day after school and on weekends．After ‘two years on the job，he finally asked for a small salary．The owners told him he "wasn’t good enough to be paid．”So he quit ,and found a paying job at another local flower shop．。He worked hard there，but after six months they laid him off because business was slow． Not discouraged, Roger decided to do it alone and started his own flower store in a basement．He started his business with only sixty-five dollars．He bought old refrigerators at garage sales and knocked the shelves out This turned．them into coolers fur his fresh-cut flowers．His business grew rapidly as he built up a reputation for top quality and fine service． In l977，Roger bought out the flower store where he had worked without pay for over two years．The people who said he "wasn’t good enough” were astonished to find that they were being taken over by a teenager He had plans to renovate the whole store． One of the reasons the owners sold out to Roger was that the store wasn’t doing well．But after Roger took over ownership and redid the store，business started booming．In fact, business was so good that after one year, he celebrated by buying out the other store where he had worked．Roger then combined both Stores and moved to a location in the center of his town． The new store has 2，000 square feet and seven employees．And he did it all before he reached the age of twenty． 36.The author is most eager to show that people who want to get ahead in business should A Work without pay B own a flower shop C work hard and be persistent D work as teenagers 37.

Recently, two major US student loan lenders—Citibank and JPMorgan Chase—announced they were leaving the student loan industry altogether. Because banks currently have a lack of credit(存款額), they are reluctant to offer students low-interest loans(貸款) that need a several-year wait for any return of interest. In the US, many undergraduates top up their financial needs with a private loan, although the majority can get government-funded loans. In the 2005-2006 academic year, $17 billion in private student loans was used to finance higher education. The shortfall in private funding has yet to be covered and will hit many US students hard. Across the Atlantic, UK students have been less troubled by the crisis. Most undergraduates in the UK cover their university expenses with government-funded loans and grants(助學(xué)金). Their biggest concern is a sudden steep increase in student rent. Most young professionals now rent houses, since 80 percent of UK mortgage schemes(住房抵押貸款計劃) have disappeared—a direct result of the credit crisis. This has boosted the house rent market. In large cities, UK students are paying almost 6.5 percent more in rent than the previous year. Figures from the UK organization Accommodation for Student show students in big cities such as London paying an average weekly rent of $103. Yet, despite students' suffering, the number of this year’s university applications is expected to grow. During economic slumps, people regard further education as a way to survive tough job markets. 60. According to the passage, banks are unwilling to offer students loans because ________. A. the students are poor and sometimes they can’t pay off the debt B. banks prefer lending the money to the young professionals C. banks don’t have enough money left at the present time D. they think college students are not studying hard 61. The underlined phrase “top up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________. A. put up B. make up C. fill up D. pick up 62. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. UK college students have to pay more if they want to rent houses. B. More UK students want to further their study in college. C. It is not so easy for US students to loan money now. D. College students' tuition fees have risen greatly. 63. It can be inferred that ________. A. there are no private student loan lenders in the UK B. loans for US college students will be increased next year C. private funding falls a little because of higher-interest loans in the US D. private loans play a very important role in financing US students’ education 64. The passage mainly tells us ________. A. college students in the US and UK are faced with their financial crisis B. it is the duty of the governments to solve college students' financial crisis C. private student loan is a good way for college students to overcome the difficulties D. further education is a good way for college students to survive tough job markets 【參考答案】60—64、CCDDA 閱讀理解 閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文, 從給的四個選項 (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項。 You are busy filling out the application form for a position you really need；let's assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isn't it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma (文憑) represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University? More and more people are turning to an utter deception (欺騙)like this to land their first job or to move ahead in their careers. For personnel officers, like most Americans, value degress from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars(學(xué)籍管理員)at most well-known colleges say that they deal with dishonest claims like these at the rate of about one per week. Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms. It turns out that when an applicant is lying, most colleges are unwilling to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school refers to them as “special cases”. One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says these claims are made by “no such people”． To avoid complete lies，some job seekers claim that they “attended” or “were associated with”a college or university. After careful checking, a personnel officer may discover that “attending” means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that “being associated with” a college means that the job seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century—that's when they began keeping records, anyhow. If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a fake diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from “Smoot State University”. The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the “University of Purdue”. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper. 因為人事部門的官員們更看重名校學(xué)歷，因此人們常常為謀求一份好工作和職位而造假。 13．The writer mainly wants to tell us that ________. A. college degrees can now be purchased easily B. nowadays it is very hard for people to find jobs C. lying about college degrees is becoming a widespread problem D. employers are no longer interested in applicants' actual performances 答案：C。主旨大意題?？傆[文章可知C項為本文主旨。 14．As used in the first line of the second paragraph，the word “utter” means ________. A. thorough B. careful C. imcomplete D. spoken 答案：A。詞義猜測題。由第二段第一句中的關(guān)鍵詞deception(欺騙)及其后的解釋“學(xué)歷造假”，再結(jié)合文章主旨可推出A項正確。thorough徹底的。 15．Once finding applicants with false diplomas, most colleges would ________. A. keep the records of them B. drive them out of college C. avoid direct conflicts with them D. accuse them of such behaviors 答案：C。推理判斷題。由第三段中的“...most colleges are unwilling to accuse the applicant directly”．和下面給出的例子可推斷出C項正確。 16．We can learn from the passage that ________. A. US employers value their job applicants with a degree from top universities B. University of Purdue and Purdue University are the same school C. people with fake diplomas can get their first jobs in US easily D. people pay the same price for a fake diploma from different universities 答案：A。事實細節(jié)題。由第二段第二句“For personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools.”可知A項正確。由尾段可知B、D錯誤；C項在文中沒有信息支持。 閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文, 從給的四個選項 (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項。 Early on Saturday morning, one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded hit central Chile. The powerful quake killed more than 800 people, destroyed or badly damaged 1.5 million homes and affected almost 2 million people. The 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck around 3:34 a.m., jolting(震搖) people awake all over the country. The earthquake came from underwater, off the coast of Chile. Fernando Abarzua was in one of the many buildings that collapsed(倒塌) there. “I was on the eighth floor and all of a sudden I was down here,” he said, adding that he was surprised to have escaped with no major injuries. The earthquake triggered(引發(fā)) a tsunami that swept across the Pacific Ocean, setting off warnings in 53 countries. In the end, the tsunami's waves caused major damage and several deaths in Chile but nowhere else. Dozens of aftershocks, or smaller earthquakes, rattled(使顫動) the area in the days following Saturday's massive quake. Chile has a history of earthquakes. The largest recorded earthquake in the world—a 9.5-magnitude quake—struck the country in May 1960. Since 1973, there have been 13 quakes there with a magnitude of at least 7.0. As a result, Chile's newer buildings were built to withstand(經(jīng)受住) the shocks. That is one reason that Chile's quake—though 500 times stronger—has caused much less damage than the earthquake that struck Haiti in January. On Sunday, Bachelet ordered troops in Chile to help hand out food, water and blankets and to clear rubble(瓦礫堆)from the roads. Temporary hospitals were planned for the hardest-hit areas. She later requested help from the international community. On Monday, the United Nations prepared earthquake relief efforts as well as 30 tons of food and other help. Even before Bachelet's request, President Obama announced that the U.S. was prepared to help. “The United States stands ready to assist in the rescue and recovery efforts,” he said. 60. The passage mainly tells us . A. how the world helped Chile after its earthquake B. a massive（巨大的） earthquake rocked Chile and the response to it C. hundreds of people died after the Chile’s earthquake D. the poorest country-Chile was destroyed completely 61. According to the passage, we know Fernando Abarzua is . A. brave B. devoted C. lucky D. kind 62. Which of the following could be the main and direct reason that caused less damage in Chile than that in Haiti? A. Help came in time. B. Chile's people had got the news before the earthquake. C. Chile is richer than Haiti. D. Most of the buildings in Chile can bear the shocks. 63. The passage most probably appears . A. in a newspaper B. in a magazine C. in a history book D. in an advertisement 9
