They are determined to make the best of the situation and attract tourists who want to enjoy the fine food and wine of the area. Here are a few suggestions for accommodation and eating in the region.‎ The Bell Tower on Dog Point, Hawkesbury It is perfect for couples or a group of up to eight who want to eat tasty local cuisine and provides fine views overlooking the Wairau Valley and a pleasant walk to visit the owner's winery, Dog Point.‎ Hotel d'Urville , Blenheim This hotel has unusual but comfortable rooms in the center of town and a small newly decorated restaurant.‎ Raetihi Lodge, Kenepuru Sound ‎ Reached by boat, this elegant lodge with a fully catered dining room is a great place where you can enjoy your time alone. ‎ Arbour, Fairhall A menu sourced from local, seasonal food is created daily by the rising star chef Bradley Hornby with superb service and a fine local wine list to match at this rural restaurant. Bookings are advised.‎ The Vines Village Cafe, Rapaura You can enjoy all the clothes and gift shopping, large spreading outdoors, simple, tasty dishes, good beer selection, and Whitehaven wines on site. It's also home to Alex Fulton Design.‎ Marlborough Farmers' Market A visit to the Marlborough Farmers' Market, which opens on Saturday mornings at Blenheim's A&P Showgrounds, is recommended.‎ ‎21. What do people in the Marlborough region think of the earthquake? ‎ A. It is an opportunity for development. B. It wholly destroyed their hometown.‎ C. It gets the locals and industries desperate. D. It made the region world-famous. ‎ ‎22. Where should one go if he doesn't want to be disturbed?‎ A. Hotel d'Urville, Blenheim. B. Raetihi Lodge, Kenepuru Sound.‎ C. The Vines Village Cafe, Rapaura. D. Marlborough Farmers’ Market.‎ ‎23. What can people enjoy at Arbour? ‎ A. Free local wine. B. Seasonal dishes.‎ C. Menus tailored to their needs. D. Superb service from movie stars.‎ B It's a tragedy that could be avoided: every year, more than 400 people in Britain die while waiting for a replacement organ for their bodies. Although organ transplants have been saving lives for more than 60 years, the right body part is often not available at the right time simply because not enough people choose to be donors. Should people therefore be required to allow their organs to be used by others after death?‎ The British Medical Association (BMA), which represents doctors in Britain, says yes. A system of "presumed consent ( 默许) " would automatically make everyone over the age of 16 an organ donor .Individuals would be allowed to opt out, that is to say, decide not to be an organ donor, if that's what they prefer. The BMA points to much higher organ donation rates in countries that have opt-out systems, such as Spain, Belgium, Austria and the Czech Republic.‎ England's chief medical officer, Sir Liam Donaldson, also wants to change the organ-donor ‎ system from opt-in to opt-out. All of this sounds like very good news for the 7,500 people in the UK who are waiting for transplants of critical organs, tissues, skin and bones.‎ Britain's National Health Service (NHS) recently counts 14.3 million organ donors on a list which began in 1994. Not everyone wants to participate, however, according to the NHS, 90 percent of the British strongly support organ donation, but only 23 percent are on the organ-donor list.‎ Why the discrepancy(差异)? One reason is that organ donation is a personal matter. Another reason may be indecision: when families are not sure about a dead relative's wishes, 40 percent decide not to donate his or her organs. Interestingly, religion has little to do with a decision not to donate. All six of the main religions in Britain support organ donation and transplantation.‎ The government decided in 2018 how the system of organ donation should work--- without a policy of presumed consent. Opinion among members of parliament (议会) continues to be divided; but the tragedy goes on: as things are now, one in 10 Britons in need of an organ will never get one.‎ ‎24. What does the tragedy in Para.1 refer to?‎ A. People are required to be organ donors.‎ B. Organ transplants could save lives for more than 60 years.‎ C. More and more donors' organs are not proper for operation.‎ D. Many patients have to die because of no replacement organ.‎ ‎25. The underlined words "opt out" in Para. 2 mean"_______".‎ A. criticize on donating their organs B. accept organ transplants operation C. persuade their parents not to donate D. choose to be out of the organ donors ‎26. According to Para. 4, most British people______.‎ A. support organ donation without action B. want to participate in organ donation C. are willing to donate their organs D. don't like NHS' activity ‎27. What' s the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Analyzing the tragedy of organ donation.‎ B. Persuading people to support organ donation.‎ C. Praising those people who donate their organs.‎ D. Listing government' s measures on organ donation.‎ C When she was studying to become a scientist, Megan Strauss rode in a small airplane to study giraffes. While a pilot flew over the Serengeti in Tanzania, Africa, the researchers looked down carefully and counted giraffes.‎ ‎"I am always amazed how easily we can spot warthogs and other small animals, yet we sometimes have trouble seeing giraffes. Giraffes are slender in shape, and they may not throw a good shadow, " says Dr. Strauss, who has since become a wildlife scientist.‎ The Serengeti is about the size of Vermont, a state in the northeastern US, so the scientists could not study the entire area. Instead, they surveyed three areas where giraffes were studied in the 1970s. As they expected, they saw far fewer of these animals.‎ To find out if lions had been killing more giraffes in recent years, the team looked at the survival of young giraffes. Lions kill more young giraffes than adults, but the team found no decrease in young giraffes' survival after they are born, compared with the 1970s.‎ The team then looked at whether too many giraffes were being killed by parasites(寄生虫).The researchers counted parasite eggs in giraffe droppings, and they found too few to harm the giraffe population.‎ They looked into whether poachers (盗猎者)were killing too many giraffes. Two of the areas they studied are where giraffe meat is sometimes sold in local markets. Poachers catch more adult males than other giraffes. Researchers spotted too few males compared with females in those two areas, a sign of poaching.‎ When the food supply is short, the environment supports fewer giraffes and the females have fewer young giraffes. A lot of new trees have grown in the Serengeti, but many are a type that giraffes do not like to eat. The researchers found fewer young giraffes today than in the 1970s compared with the number of adult females, a sign that food was in short supply.‎ Dr. Strauss is working on an environmental education program for Tanzania including books for students. These materials will educate Tanzanians and help them to help giraffes. As knowledge grows and changes are made, they hope the giraffe population will increase.‎ ‎28. What did Dr. Strauss find while studying giraffes in the Serengeti?‎ A. It was too costly to study giraffes.‎ B. It was hard to spot giraffes from the air.‎ C. The number of giraffes had increased slowly.‎ D. Giraffes lived in smaller areas than in the 1970s.‎ ‎29.How did the team study the lion-giraffe relationship?‎ A. By analyzing giraffe droppings. B. By comparing young giraffes with adults.‎ C. By comparing male giraffes and females. D. By surveying the survival of young giraffes.‎ ‎30.What are the causes of a reduction in giraffes population in the Serengeti?‎ ‎ A. Lions and parasites. B. Lack of food and poaching.‎ ‎ C. New trees and local markets. D Illegal hunting and natural enemies ‎31.What is Dr. Strauss doing to help giraffes?‎ A. She is founding a national park in Tanzania.‎ B. She is counting giraffes in the entire Serengeti.‎ C. She is educating students to write about giraffes.‎ D. She is raising environmental awareness in local people.‎ D It began as a game: High school and college students studying computer technology figured out they could use personal computers to break into telephone company computers and make free, long-distance telephone calls. These young computer talents soon gained the name "hackers".‎ Police arrested a few hackers, but many went on to even more complex hacking. One of them was arrested for making illegal telephone calls and later he used a phone to change a police officer's credit records to get back at the officer for arresting him. He also used a computer to change his college records to give himself better grades.‎ As hackers gained experience, they began invading computers at banks, airlines and other businesses. In one case a hacker instructed an airline' s computer to give him free airplane tickets.‎ The U.S. government is worried that hackers may break into its networks of defense computers. The government's secrets are easily attacked because thousands of government computers are connected by telephone lines that hackers can get into.‎ In November 1988, a college student entered a U.S. Defense Department computer network called Arpanet. The hacker injected a computer program that made copies of itself throughout Arpanet. Some hackers use viruses to destroy all the data in a computer. But in this case, government officials shut down the network before the program reached every computer in the system. Shutting down the system angered many researchers who were using the computers. The hacker turned himself in to the police and he was charged with a crime.‎ The incident put the spotlight on computer hacking in the United States. Many companies have hired experts to protect their computers from hackers, and many computer experts now advise companies on how to protect their computers.‎ The U.S. government believes foreign governments have hired hackers to try to break into top-secret defense computers.‎ Experts disagree over whether a computer network can ever be safe from hacking. But in the ‎ future, some of the most outstanding minds in the U.S. will be working to frustrate the attempts of computer hackers.‎ ‎32. What did the first hackers do?‎ A. They broke into government computers. B. They destroyed airplane ticket systems.‎ C. They played computer games. D. They made free phone calls.‎ ‎33. Why can U.S. government computers be easily hacked into?‎ A. They have no defense systems. B. They are connected by telephone lines.‎ C. They are partly accessible to the public. D. They lack complex processing programs.‎ ‎34. What happened to the government computers in November 1988?‎ A. They lost all of the important data. B. They were shut down by researchers.‎ C. They were invaded by a college student. D. They got totally ruined by a computer program.‎ ‎35. What did companies decide to do to protect their computer systems?‎ A. Employ computer talents. B. Build secret defense systems.‎ C. Ask the government for help. D. Collect and analyze the data of hackers.‎ 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。‎ New Year's Traditions Around the World There are many traditions around the world to celebrate the New Year.

School begins for all students at 8:00 am. New students will meet in front of the office. (20)Returning students will receive a phone call the night before school starts to learn who their teacher is and the classroom number. ‎
