In the frozen continent of Antarctica scientists fear an alien invasion — not from outer space, but carried in people’s pockets and bags.

Seeds and plants accidentally brought to Antarctica by tourists and scientists may introduce alien plant species which could threaten the survival of native plants in the finely balanced ecosystem.

 “The people that were carrying the most had lots and lots of seeds. They really were real threats,” said Dana Bergstrom, from the Australian Antarctic Division.

“When we take things in through hitchhiking（搭车旅行） then we get species which are competitive. The plants and animals there are not necessarily competitive, so we’d start losing various precious biodiversity（生物多样性） on the (Antarctic) continent”, Bergstrom told Reuters.

Amongst the alien species discovered were the Iceland Poppy, and Annual Winter Grass — all from cold climates and capable of growing in Antarctica.

The Antarctic Peninsula, where most tourists travel, is now considered a “hot spot” on the frozen continent and the warmer the climate, the easier for seeds to grow. “The peninsula（半岛） is warming at some of the greatest rates on the planet,” said Bergstrom.

The study, the first continent-wide assessment of invasive species in Antarctica, surveyed about 1,000 passengers during 2007-2008, the first year of the International Polar Year, an international effort to research the polar areas.

Bergstrom said the one alien seed that had gained a foothold is Annual Winter Grass. It is a strong weed in the sub-Antarctic and is on the Antarctic island of King George. It has also made its way to the tail part of the Antarctic continent.

32. What does the passage focus on?

A. The human influence on the native plants.     B. The development of native plants.

   C. The discovery of new plants.              D. The promising future of tourism.

33. What is the effect of alien plant seeds to Antarctica? 

A. They contribute to the biodiversity.

   B. They lead to the warming up of Antarctica.

   C. They make the native plants more competitive.

   D. They break the balance of the natural environment of plants.

34. What can we learn from the passage?

   A. The International Polar Year started in 2007.

   B. Visitors to Antarctica are mainly scientists.

   C. Visitors to Antarctica bring seeds on purpose.

   D. Tall Fescue Velvet grass grows well in warm places.

35. What is the purpose of writing the passage?

   A. To introduce the native environment of Antarctica.

   B. To warn people of the danger of alien plant seeds to Antarctica.

   C. To explain the relationship between plants and climate.

   D. To give visitors some tips on how to explore Antarctica.

    When we hear of dangerous diseases, cancer and heart disease are often what first comes to mind. Recently, a virus (病毒) called Ebola has reappeared in Guinea (a country in West Africa), killing 62 people so far. It leads to viral hemorrhagic fever, which is characterized by high fever and internal bleeding etc, Ebola can kill 90% of those infected, especially in underdeveloped societies like those in Africa.

    Ebola is named after the Ebola River, where it was first discovered in 1976. There are five different types of the Ebola virus, each named after where they first happened: Sudan, Ivory Coast, Restoon, Bundibugyo, and Zaire. The deadliest of the five, Zaire, was responsible for the 2012 outbreak, and is believed to be attacking Guinea.

    Ebola is naturally found in fruit bats (果蝠), which pass on the virus to other animals by biting or sucking on (吮吸) their blood. Humans who are suffering from the Ebola infection might have touched the bodily fluids (液体) of the infected animals. Once infected, a human becomes a carrier of the deadly virus.

    Since we live in an interconnected world, where the situation in one country can affect us all, the influences of Ebola are huge: damaging trade relations, affecting foreign visitors, and weakening entire countries. Already the Guinea virus is spreading fast with a few cases spotted in Conakry — the capital of Guinea, far away from the origin of the virus. It is feared that the disease may have already reached neighboring Liberia and Sierra Leone, too.

    Unfortunately, there are no disease-specific treatments for Ebola. Healthcare workers only supply the infected people with water to keep them in good condition. Since there have been many cases of nurses catching the disease from patients, they are forced to wear strict protective clothes, and in some cases, not even allowed to get close to the affected. The fact that there is no cure for the Ebola virus is what makes the outbreak a challenging one to control.

32. The news of Ebola in Guinea is mentioned to ________.

  A. make a brief summary

  B. introduce the topic of the text

  C. compare Ebola with cancer

  D. show the latest study of viruses

33. What can we learn about Ebola?

  A. It is a newly discovered virus.

  B. It is the most dangerous virus in the world.

  C. It was named after where it first happened.

  D. It could cause immediate death for anyone infected.

34. What is mainly described in Paragraph 3?

  A. What the Ebola virus is.

  B. The influences of Ebola.

  C. The treatments for Ebola.

  D. How the Ebola virus spreads.

35. Which of the following does the author probably agree with?

  A. Ebola is a highly infectious virus.

  B. Ebola is now very common in Guinea.

  C. Those with a fever must be infected by Ebola.

  D. Females are more easily to be infected by Ebola.

 David is an ________ person -- respected even by those who disagree with him.

A. abnormal                         B. honorable              C. ordinary                          D. energetic

  It is good to see that today more people have realized the importance exercising and are playing sports regular. But the problem is that there are not enough sports facilities to meet the public growing demand. I love playing basketball and often play with my friends on weekends.

    To some degree,multi-generational households have alway been a part of American life,However,the number of adults who have been moving back in with their parents-or never leaving home in the first place-has been growing steadily.

  The PEW Research Center recently reported that 2014 was a milestone in the evolving(进化的）living arrangements of young adults in the US In 2014,about 32.1percent of 18-to -34-year-olds lived in their parents'home,compared with 31.6 percent living in their own separate than to be living on their own.

   UBS Financial Service,a Swiss global financial services company,released a report that even suggests one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesn't want them to leave.

   The report shows that 74 percent of milliennials(千禧一代）get some kind of financial support from their parents after college.Milliennials see their parents as peers,friends and teachers.Nearly three quarters talked with their parents more than once a week during college.In return,their parents happily provided inancial support well into adulthood,helping fund everything for them.

   Stuart Hofiman,chief eonomist for the PNC Financial Group in the US,said the number of young adults striking out on their own fell during the Great

Recession.Althought job growth for milliennials sicne 2014 has improved,that doesn't necessarily mean that milliennial are starting to fly the nest.He said,“They may like living at home and beig able to save money.”

   “There's no doubt that it has held back household formation and purchasees on things people spend money on related to household(户）formation and perhaps related to childrearing,”Hoffman explained.“But they are probably travelling more and eating out more if they don't have a house expense or marriage.I don't know if it represent a change in moral values.But it is much more common for adult children to live in their parents'homes because it's becomingpart of the culture.”

28.Why have more young adults probably been moving to live with parents?

A.It has always been a part of American life.

B.Their parents help fund everything for them.

C.Job growth for milliennial has improved.

D.They like to live at home and save money.

29. Which of the following belongs to Swiss?

A.More young adults make a living on their own.

B.Job growth makes milliennial live with their parents.

C.The cultural change will lead to less household formation.

D.Milliennials should see their parents as friends.

31. What can we learn from the passage about American young adults college?

Very early on the morning of June 29, 1991, a heavy fog hung over the wheat field in southern England. Carrie and Morgenstern were watching the field. Although they could see nothing through the thick fog, they kept their cameras running.

   By 6 a.m. the fog began to lift. A remarkable pair of circles was seen in the wheat field. Rushing down the hill, they found that the wheat within the two circles had been flattened into precise clockwise swirls. Stalks (麦秆) were bent but not broken. Outside the circles the wheat was untouched.

   It had been silent all night. Although the field was muddy, there were no footprints or other marks. The circles seemed to have come from nowhere. “I can’t explain it,” admits Mike Carrie.

   Carrie is not alone. Since the early 1980s, more than 2000 circles have appeared in farmers’ fields. Most circles form at night between May and August.

   Some believe the circles are caused by hedgehogs(刺猬) or deer. Others attribute them to the UFOs.

   “The circles are messages given by those who come from outer space,” says Michael Green. “Perhaps they are trying to get in touch with us.”

   Pat Delgado has made researches on crop circles since 1981. He believes that they are caused by “some form of earth energy”. In several circles, he recorded an unusual noise which

seemed to have been made by some “electronic”.

   Most scientists think that there’s no scientific basis to back up Green’s or Delgado’s theories. Some of them say, “We think they’re nothing but a hoax(骗局).”

   In September 1991, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley claimed that since 1979 they had made circles throughout southern England to fool people who believed in UFO. “We got down on our hands and knees and used an iron bar, so that it looked as though a UFO had landed there.”

   Since the early 1980s, Dr Terence Meaden has visited more than 1000 circles. Now he thinks he may have the answer. He believes true crop circles are made by vortex. When it hits the ground, it flattens the crop in spiral patterns. Each northern summer, these surprising formations turn British cornfields into artists’ paintings. “Crop circles are an amusing part of the silly season—though farmers might not agree,” says Royal Society’s Sir Francis Graham-smith.

61. On the morning of June 29, 1991, Carrie and Morgenstern hoped to _______.

A. record an important thing               B. see something funny

C. find nature’s secret                        D. draw a conclusion
