It is difficult for doctors to help a person with a damaged brain. Without enough blood, the

brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the

doctors can’t fix the damage.

Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it

is dangerous to work on the brain.

The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on

the brain.

Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks

doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.

Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, and then he operated on them. He made the monkeys‘ blood go through a machine. The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the blood back to the monkeys‘ brains. When the brain’s temperature was 10°C, Dr. White stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like they had been before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them.

36. The biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is

that _______.

A. the time is too short for doctors B. the patients are often too nervous

C. the damage is extremely hard to fix D. the blood-cooling machine might break down

37. The brain operation was made possible mainly by _______. A. taking the blood out of the brain B. trying the operation on monkeys first

C. having the blood go through a machine D. lowering the brain’s temperature

38. With Dr. White’s new idea, the operation on the damaged brain _______.

A. can last as long as 30 minutes B. can keep the brain’s blood warm

C. can keep the patient’s brain healthy D. can help monkeys do different jobs

39. What is the right order of the steps in the operation? a. send the cooled blood back to the brain b. stop the blood to the brain c. have the blood cooled down d. operate on the brain

A. a, b, c, d B. c, a, b, d C. c, b, d, a D. b, c, d, a B

I spent the first eight years of my education in a small. However, in the ninth grade I moved to a huge public high school. I went from a class of 30 kids to a class of almost 100! I was shy and did not have much experience of socializing. I felt invisible there.

They had a tradition in this class. On your birthday everyone would sing “Happy Birthday to You” and then members of the opposite sex would line up and give you a hug. My birthday was early in the school year, and since I didn’t know anyone to tell I figured that no one would notice. Little did I know that the teacher had looked at the school records and knew about my birthday. On my birthday I suddenly found myself at the center of everyone’s attention. Before I knew what was happening, everyone was singing to me and I had a bunch of girls waiting to give me a hug!

I was completely confused. My heart was racing! It wasn’t until the fourth or fifth hug that I realized what I was saying “Happy Birthday” in a shy voice during each embrace. I tried to stop, but my brain I was so busy that I couldn’t

control my mouth. Each girl gave me a wish, and I gave her the same in return.

Later, whenever we greeted each other with a hug we would say.” Happy Birthday”.

A. independent B. important C. noticed D. excited 41. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

Camp memories last forever! We make sure they are unforgettable!

Shadow Ridge Summer Camps offer so many exciting things for campers to do. Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program, at Shadow

Ridge horses ARE the program! We are 100%horse from stable(马厩)management, nature walks, and track rides to bedroom furnishings.

Horses help us achieve many of our aims. Girls can learn to develop

responsibility,

self-confidence

and

personal

connections in their lives while having fun. Using horses as a wonderful tool for education, our camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.

Imagine each girl having her very own horse to spend time with and a best friend to love and take care of. Each camper is responsible for a horse for the week. Our riding program provides a lot of riding and lesson time. Campers will learn how to take care of the horse and the tack(马具), as well as how to ride. Days are filled with horse-related activities to strengthen the connection between each girl and horse, as the girls learn to work safely around the horses.

At Shadow Ridge we try to create a loving, caring family atmosphere for our campers. We have “The Bunkhouse” (4 girls), the“Wranglers Roost” (4 girls), and “The Hideout” (2 girls) in our comfortable 177-year-old farm house. All meals are home cooked, offering delicious and healthy food for the hungry rider.

Our excellent activities create personalized memories of your child‘s vacation; each child will receive a camp T-shirt and a photo album (usually 300-500 pictures) of their stay at camp.

Our camps are offered during June, July and August 2007, for small groups of girls aged 13-16 years, not only from Canada but also other parts of the world.We will send you full program descriptions at your request. 43. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To attract people to the camps. B. To talk about camping experiences.

C. To describe the programs of the camps. D. To explain the aims of the camps.

44. What do we know about the camp programs at Shadow Ridge?

45. The programs at Shadow Ridge mainly aim to help people________.

A. understand horses better B. enjoy a family atmosphere

C. have fun above other things D. achieve an educational purpose

46. The passage is written mainly for______.

A. horse riders B. teenage girls C. Canadian parents D. international travelers D

Imagine you’re at a party full of strangers. You’re nervous. Who are these people? How do you start a conversation? Fortunately, you’ve got a thing that sends out energy at tiny chips in everyone’s name tag （标签）. This hasn’t quite happened in real life. But the world is already experiencing a revolution using RFID technology.

An RFID tag with a tiny chip can be fixed in a product, under your pet’s skin, even under your own skin. Passive RFID tags have no energy source-batteries because they do not need it. The energy comes from the reader, a scanning device（装置）,that sends out energy (for example, radio waves)that starts up the tag immediately.

Such a tag carries information specific to that object, and the data can be updated. Already, RFID technology is used for recognizing each car or truck on the road and it might appear in your passport. Doctors can put a tiny chip under the

skin that will help locate and obtain a patient’s medical records. At a nightclub in Paris or in New York the same chip gets you into the VIP (very important person) section and pays for the bill with the wave of an arm.

Take a step back： 10 or 12 years ago, you would have heard about the coming age of computing. One example always seemed to surface： Your refrigerator would know when you needed to buy more milk. The concept was that computer chips could be put everywhere and send information in a smart network that would make ordinary life simpler.

RFID tags are a small part of this phenomenon. “The world is going to be a loosely coupled set of individual small devices, connected wirelessly,”predicts Dr.J.Reich. Human right supporters are nervous about the possibilities of such technology. It goes too far tracking school kids through RFID tags, they say. We imagine a world in which a beer company could find out not only when you bought a beer but also when you drank it. And how many beers. Accompanied by how many biscuits.

When Marconi invented radio, he thought it would be used for ship-to-shore communication. Not for pop music.

Who knows how RFID and related technologies will be used in the future. Here’s a wild guess： Not for buying milk. 47. The article is intended to .

A. warn people of the possible risks in adopting RFID technology

B.explain the benefits brought about by RFID technology C.convince people of the uses of RFID technology D.predict the applications of RFID technology

48. We know from the passage that with the help of RFID tags, people .

A. will have no trouble getting data about others B.will have more energy for conversation C.will have more time to make friends D.won’t feel shy at parties any longer 49. Passive RFID tags chiefly consist of .

A. scanning devices B.radio waves C.batteries D.chips 50. Why are some people worried about RFID technology? A. Because children will be tracked by strangers. B.Because market competition will become fiercer. C.Because their private lives will be greatly affected. D.Because customers will be forced to buy more products. 51. The last paragraph implies that RFID technology .

A. will not be used for such matters as buying milk B.will be widely used, including for buying milk C.will be limited to communication uses D.will probably be used for pop music 第II卷（共65分）
