Green collars say no when work is life and life is work. They choose to get out of the fast lane, and explore new ways of living “green”.‎ Living green doesn’t mean someone is working as an environmentalist, biologist or scientist. Instead, it is more of a lifestyle choice. A typical green collar is well-educated like a white collar but physically tough like a blue collar, likely born in the 70s or 80s and living in one of China’s big cities, with a monthly income well above 5, 000 yuan.‎ The life of a green collar may go something like this: turn off the mobile phone after work, eat only healthy food rich in vitamins, go out on hikes every weekend, and like to help the underprivileged.‎ Green collars even have their own club. In Beijing, the Green Collar Club is for people who share a “be happy, healthy and helpful” spirit. The club often holds charity parties and uses the donations for environmental protection and poverty relief ‎ projects in China.‎ ‎“They are successful in their careers, but do not miss the pleasures in life. They have a lot of money, but do not fall slave to it,” said Zuo Shiguang, one of the founding members of the club.‎ ‎21. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. The appearance of gold collar workers.‎ B. The increasing awareness of environmental protection.‎ C. The lifestyle of green collars.‎ D. New trends in big cities of China.‎ ‎22. Green collars are living green because .‎ A. they devoted themselves to environmental protection B. they spend a lot of time in the open air C. they refuse to live an unhealthy life D. they have a large income ‎23. Which of the following best describes Zuo Shiguang’s attitude towards green collars?‎ A. Scolding. B. Appreciative. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral.‎ B Many of the inventions that form part of our everyday lives had their roots right here in the UK. Let’s take a look at some of the most important inventions. The bagless vacuum cleaner James Dyson, 1979 There are some things we don’t know we need until someone invents them. Step forward, the bag-less vacuum cleaner. James Dyson came up with the idea after spending a lot of money on an expensive cleaner that simply pushed dirt around. Most of us would have left it that, but Dyson went on to change the basic principle of a vacuum cleaner—an idea that hadn’t been changed for 100 years—by designing a system that removed the necessity of the bag for good. His final version took five years of res earch. However, when Dyson first approached manufactures with his idea, he couldn’t interest them. But he didn’t give up and set up a factory in Wiltshire in 1993 to produce them himself. Two years later, Dyson’s products were outselling the competition. The Mini Alec Issigonis, 1959 While the Americans were driving supersize Cadillacs, Britain famously went in the opposite direction and came up with a small car. Alec Issigonis was responsible for the design and made a name for himself in motoring history with its launch(投放市场) in 1959 for the British Motor Corporation (BMC). The Mini’s success wasn’t overnight. Many thought it “strange”, but it developed into a love affair with the British that’s never decreased, helped by the fact that many stars loved it. The London sewage system(污水处理系统) Joseph Bazalgette, 1865 Like any major city, London has always produced large amounts of waste. Give thanks, then, to Joseph Bazalgette, an engineer who developed a far-reaching underground sewage system. It changed the process of getting rid of waste by dumping it into the Thames‎ ‎River. Even more impressive was his idea to construct pipes that would function for nearly 150 years and still be large enough to meet the need of the increasing population. As he said, “We’re only going to do this once.”‎ ‎24. What do we know about James Dyson and his idea? A. He enjoyed immediate success. B. His efforts paid off at last.‎ ‎ C. His idea attracted many manufacturers. D. He set up the first vacuum cleaner factory. ‎ ‎25. The Mini won its popularity ______. ‎ A. soon after its launch in 1959. ‎ B. because it was advertised by stars. ‎ C. because people lost interest in supersize cars. ‎ D. with the help of some famous people.‎ ‎26. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph shows Bazalgette was______. ‎ A. cautious B. confident C. strong-minded D. far-sighted ‎27. What did the three British inventors have in common? ‎ A. Their success came after many failures. ‎ B. They influenced many other inventors. ‎ C. Their inventions changed people’s lives.‎ D. They made their inventions by accident. ‎ C Physics is a different world now. Will there ever be another Einstein? Scientists say a new Einstein will appear, but it may take a long time. After all, more than 200 years separated Einstein from his nearest rival (对手) , Isaac Newton. Many physicists say the next Einstein hasn’t been born yet, or is only a baby now. That’s because the searching for a unified(统一的) theory that would explain all the forces of nature has pushed current mathematics to its limits. New math must be created before the problem can be solved. But researchers say there are many other factors working against another Einstein appearing anytime soon. For one thing, physics is quite a different field today. In Einstein’s day, there were a few thousand physicists worldwide, and fewer theoreticians. Education is different, too. One extremely important aspect of Einstein’s training that failed to be considered is the philosophy he read as a teenager. It taught him how to think theoretically about space and time. And he was a skilled musician. The interplay between music and math is well known. Einstein would fiercely play his violin as a way to think through a knotty physics problem. Today, universities have produced millions of physicists. There aren’t many jobs in science for them, so they go to Wall Street and Silicon Valley to apply their analytical skills to more practical and rewarding efforts. Besides, those who stay in science don’t work alone. It’s very difficult to imagine an independent person like Einstein ever tolerating this. 28. Which of the following best explains the reason that the next Einstein hasn’t been born yet? ‎ A. Education today doesn’t pay enough attention to philosophy teaching. ‎ ‎ B. We don’t know who will be another Einstein among newly-born babies. C. There were more physicists in Einstein’s time than today. ‎ D. Math today is limited and cannot help the further development of physics. ‎ ‎29. One of the reasons that made Einstein a great scientist is _________ A. the philosophy he read in his teens ‎ B. the lack of physicists in his day C. the knowledge learnt from Isaac Newton D. his decision of not working at Wall Street ‎ ‎30. The underlined word “knotty” here probably means________. A. interesting and useful B. important and meaningful C. difficult and puzzling D. realistic and hard ‎ ‎31. From Paragraphs 3 and 4, how many reasons does the writer give to explain that another Einstein hasn’t appeared? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. ‎ D Researchers have created a backpack that has a computer and medicines in it that can help even untrained soldiers save the lives of wounded troops. Wounded soldiers have a better chance of survival if they get help soon after being hurt and are quickly taken to a hospital or clinic. But soldiers who do not have medical training may not know how to help their injured friends. Doctors and engineers have developed what they call an “intelligent backpack”. It has a computer and electronic measuring devices. The backpack also has robotic instruments and medicines ready to give to injured troops. About 16 doctors and engineers from the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie‎ Mellon ‎University and several other places are working on the project. The U. S. Department of Defense has given money to the project. Ron Poropatich leads the project. He is a retired army surgeon. He says the backpack will help soldiers care for those who are injured. The devices included in the backpack can monitor a person’s heart rate and blood pressure. The robotic instruments can even tell whether the soldier has a collapsed lung. ‎ ‎ The intelligent backpack's computer can compare information gathered about the injured soldier with thousands of similar cases, and quickly tell the best methods to use to save the soldier’s life. Sometimes, it is not always possible to quickly remove the injured soldier from the battlefield.So, Dr. Poropatich says, the researchers hope to create a backpack that will have devices that can keep a soldier alive for a long time. Dr. Poropatich hopes the backpack and its instruments will be ready for testing animals in about three years. 32. What can we learn from the first paragraph?‎ A Most of the soldiers can’t use the backpack correctly.‎ B. The backpack can play a big part in the battlefield. C. Soldiers should have taken medical training. D. War or battle has brought harm to the world. 33. How many kinds of items(部件) are mentioned in the backpack? A. 5. B.4. C.3. D.2. 34. What can we know according to Ron Poropatich? A. The robotic instruments can monitor lungs.‎ B. The project got support from the whole world. C. The injurer’s heart disease can be cured. D. The devices can adjust soldiers’ blood pressure. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Researchers and Their Wonderful Discovery B. Medical Care Tested on the Wounded Soldiers C. Robotic Devices Used in the Battlefield D. Emergency Medical Care in a Backpack ‎ 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。‎ Ever thought of learning a foreign language? Most schools offer foreign language classes, but sometimes it feels like a real drag to have to sign up to learn something so brand new. 36 ● Promoting brain power. Studies have shown that there are potentially lots of brain benefits to learn a new language. 37 And many scientists believe that the more you put your brain to work, the better results you will see. This extended brain work may actually lead to improved memory! ● Expanding opportunities. 38 These days, if you live in a big city you are very likely lucky enough to be able to experience the diversity that comes with having people from all over the world live in one place. ● 39 Part of being more open to travel is the joy of exploring different cultures. If you are able to speak the official language of the country you are visiting, you will find this process a lot easier than if you are trying to communicate in English all the time. For example, if you were to travel to Paris and were able to use French to communicate with locals, you may be introduced to aspects of French culture that you otherwise would have been completely unaware of. 40 ‎ A. Learning a foreign language is important.‎ B. Exploring different cultures.‎ ‎ C. Adults learn a language more slowly than the young. D. It could be an amazing learning experience. E. Learning and using more than one language is kind of like a practice for your brain. F. However, there are lots of benefits to learn another language. G. If you learn another language, you might find your opportunities for jobs, ‎ friendships and so on. ‎ ‎ ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节， 满分45分）‎ 完形填空（共20 小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ Fouryearold Cris lived with his cruel father, who beat him when he would not earn money to 41 his alcohol and drugs .Cris could no longer 42 this kind of life and decided to run away from their home.
