填空题There are many wedding traditions in the West. And some of them date back to several hundreds of years and most of their origins have their r 11 in ancient superstitious beliefs. "Something old, new, borrowed and blue" is a popular bridal attire (盛装) rhyme. It dates from the Victorian times. Something old refers 12 wearing something that represents a link with the bride"s family and her 13 (precede) life. Usually, the bride wears a piece of family jewelry or maybe her mother"s or grandmother"s wedding dress. Wearing something new 14 (symbol) good fortune and success in the bride"s new life. The bride"s wedding dress is usually chosen, or purchased new, b 15 it can be any other new item of the bride"s wedding attire. Wearing something borrowed is meant to b 16 good luck to the marriage. It could be an item of bridal clothing, a handkerchief or an item of jewelry. Wearing something blue dates back to biblical times 17 the color blue was considered to represent purity and fidelity. The custom of the wedding veil is thought to pre 18 the wedding dress by centuries. One explanation for it is that during the times of arranged marriage, the bride"s face was covered until the groom was committed 19 her at the ceremony-so it would be too late for him to run off if he did not like the look of her! It is also thought that rite veal was worn to pr 20 the bride from evil spirits that would be floating around on her wedding day. This is why the veal covers the brides" face throughout the ceremony until the minister pronounces the couple man and wife.

填空题Collision between an aircraft and one or more birds is termed a bird-strike. Pilots sometimes record a birdstrike while at cruising altitudes, but most of them happen when an aircraft is relatively close to the ground, usually in proximity to an airport and during the circling, descent to land or take-off phases of a flight. bird-strikes may cause significant damage to an aircraft and/or, if the birds are ingested into a jet engine, a significant and sudden loss of power. If this were to happen during take-off or initial climb of a fully loaded passenger aircraft the results could be catastrophic--loss of the aircraft and the lives of those on board. Any bird is a potential hazard to aircraft and this is especially true as bird numbers and bird size increase. Unfortunately airports themselves can be attractive to birds-rodents, insects and other small animals are a food source often found in flat grassed areas such as the runway strips. Even so, this problem can be reduced by careful habitat management or bird harassment techniques practised by airport maintenance and safety personnel. Further problems may arise because the airport is located on bird migration routes. These may have existed prior to the airport site selection--but may not have been taken into account because the problem was not understood at the time--or have only been recently established because the birds have found an attractive new food source. Care needs to be taken by local authorities in deciding the location of rubbish tips, or when permitting other land uses that may be attractive to birds in this way. Of course these effects cannot always be anticipated with certainty since birds such as gulls have been recorded as travelling 50 kilometres or more from their roosting area to an attractive food source. Agricultural uses may be thought desirable because they are compatible with high levels of noise exposure, but they can have an adverse effect on air-craft operations if birds are attracted during seeding or crop cultivation. Birds may also be attracted to pig farms where garbage is used as fodder. Even tree plantings can present a hazard if the species provides an attractive food source or nesting habitat. Local authority planning schemes often apply strict controls on developments such as abattoirs, cattle feed lots, grain handling, piggeries, canals and marina developments, fish farms, and suchlike. In most cases these uses will not be permitted without a full environmental study. That study should be required to deal with the question of likely bird hazards if the proposed location is in proximity to an airport. In some instances it may be necessary to consider ways of managing a particular land use in order to reduce its attractiveness to birds, for example the adoption of land-fill measures at garbage tips, or enclosed rather than open-air activity. Specialist ornithological opinion may be necessary. In such cases it may not be possible to implement immediate changes in land use, but this should not inhibit the adoption of long-term measures which are designed to achieve this. Summary: A collision between an aircraft and one or more birds is known as a birdstrike. It usually happens when an aircraft is 1 , and may result in significant damage of the aircraft or loss of the aircraft and 2 of passengers and crew if they occur during take-off or initial climb. Because birds can find plenty food in flat grassed areas, airports are especially attractive to birds. However, the danger can be minimized by 3 Local authorities need to take care when deciding on 4 It is suggested that a full environmental study should be made before making plans of developments on the land in proximity to an airport. Local authorities should get advice from specialists and take 5 in order to bring about changes in land use.

填空题{{B}}Section C{{/B}} Directions: In this section, there are 2 passages followed by 10 questions or unfinished statements. Read the passages carefully, then answer the questions in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. Passage One Questions 61- 65 are based on the following passage. Recently we had some reports about concerns over the progress of boys in the American education system. Some people say there is a crisis for boys. Others say there are problems for some boys. But they say the situation is not so much that boys axe falling behind as that girls are catching up with boys. Today we examine changes that have taken place at the college level. Here there are similar issues. Some people are worried about the situation for men while others praise areas of progress for women. In 1970s, women represented forty-two percent of college students in the United States. Now they are about fifty-six percent. A recent report called "The Truth About Boys and Girls" included this information--but not as evidence of a crisis. Sara Mead, a policy analyst at the research group Education Sector, wrote the report. She sees the situation this way: Yes, men are earning fewer four-year college degrees than women.' But men are still earning more degrees than they have in the past, only at a slower growth rate than women. And, yes, more women than men are also earning master's degrees. But men still earn more doctorates. These are the degrees needed to become a doctor or a lawyer or a professor. In addition, men hold more positions of power and earn more money on average than women do. There are many theories why males and females perform differently in their schooling. Some are based on recent brain research, but others center on environment. Some people say boys now face a hostile environment in American education. Questions:

填空题I wish my memory worked differently. I'd like to be able to conjure up an accurate image of my (46) (conscious) from, say, 25 years ago. You know what 25 years means? No cellphones, no e-mail, no Internet, no social networking (except with an actual drink in hand), and only the most primitive of personal computers. What I want to answer is a single (47) : Was I as addicted to the future than as I seem to be now? I ask this because I really enjoy a new update to my operating system, like the one I down (48) from Apple earlier this week. I find it (49) (surprise) pleasing when one of my iPhone applications requests an update too. Every day I await, with anticipation, a long list of e-mail messages that could arrive at any second, and there are several people I'm really eager to get a text message (50) . Those, too, could come at any time. Soon—even now—I could find my feed-list in Google Reader delightfully stuffed with newness. I am not a Twitterer, but I understand the dismay the Twitter world must have felt during its service (51) (disrupt) last week. When I think back 25 years, there just wasn't that much to be waiting (52) The phone might ring—and if you left home, you had to leave without it. The mail would come, and so might UPS or Federal Express. Someone might stop by on the spur of the moment. A fax perhaps? That was about it. I've always looked forward to the mail coming. I don't know why, and now where the mail comes constantly, cease (53) , a world where I find myself dismayed by the slowdown in blog feeds over the weekend. I consider myself a moderate user of personal electronics. I almost never wear earbuds, and yet this constant foretaste of the future, this hunger for the next electronic blip, feels to me like a full-blown (54) (addict). Which is why I'd like a clearer picture of my old sell: Was I a little more serene 25 years ago? Was there a little more silence inside my head? A little less (55) (expect)? Or was I leaning headlong into the future even then?

填空题Usually, there are two reasons to pursue scientific knowledge: for the sake of the knowledge itself, and for the practical use of that knowledge. Because this second aspect of science effects the lives of most people, 31 it is much more familiar than the first. Knowledge must be gained, however, after it can be applied, and often the most important technological 32 advances arise from research pursued for its own sake. Traditionally, new technology has concerned with the construction 33 of machines, structures, and tools in a relatively large scale. The 34 development of materials for building bridges, skyscrapers or highways is an example of this, as it is the development of the internal-combustion 35 engine and the nuclear reactor. While such activities involve all sections of the sciences, the overriding goal has been the same, that is, improve 36 the human condition by finding good ways to deal with the macroscopic world. 37 Since World War Ⅱ, the focus of technological activity underwent a major change. While the old activities are still pursued, they have been largely superseded by applications of technology at the microscopic level. Instead of building large-scale structures and machines, modern-day technology tends to concentrate on finding improving ways to transfer 38 information and to develop new materials by studying the way atoms come together. The silicon chip and microelectronics typify this new technological trend, as did the blossoming of genetic engineering. The trend can be 39 expected to continue for the foreseeable decades. 40

填空题One day I can hear the faint rustle of autumn coming. The next day I can't. One evening summer leaks away into the cool night sky, but the next morning it's back again. But there is headway. Birdsong has gone, and is (46) (replace) by a whining bag-piping of insect creation. I look out across the pasture as dusk (47) (begin) and see a shining galaxy of airborne bugs. What would it be like, I wonder, to have an aware (48) of the actual number of insects on this farm? I ask myself a version of this question every day: "Have you ever really looked at....?" You can (49) in the blank yourself. Every day I am blinded by familiar (50) . I open our beehive, which is filled with honey, and the particularity of the honeybees, and even of their community, somehow escapes me, if only because I've been living with honeybees a good part of my life. I remember the phrase, "keep your eyes (51) (peel) ," and maybe that's what I need, a good peeling. Again and (52) , I find myself trying to really look at what I'm seeing. It happened the other afternoon, high on a nearby mountain. A dragonfly had settled on the denuded tip of a pine bough. It clung, still as only a dragonfly can be. Then it flicked upward and caught a midge and settled on the bough again, adjusting (53) (precise) to the wind. I see dragonflies (54) (quiver) in the insect clouds above my pasture, too. I am always aware, however, that there's no such thing as really looking. What I want to see is invisible anyway: the prehistoric depth of time embodied in the form of those dragonflies, the pressure of life itself, the web of (55) (relate) that bind us all together. I find myself trying to wit (56) the moment when the accident of life becomes a continued purpose. But this is a small farm, and, being human, I keep (57) (come) up against the limits of what a human can see. This morning I found a spider resting—or perhaps hunting—on the leaf of a hydrangea, the axis of the spider's abdomen perfectly aligned with the axis of the leaf. What I noticed was the symmetry of their placement, the way spider, and leaf resembled (58) other. What I wanted to determine was the spider's intent. If I c (59) , I would have asked it, "What are you doing.'?" Or, better yet, "Who are you?" But all I could do was look—and realizing that I was looking-make the b (60) of what I'd seen.
