Passage One
The Maya were an intelligent,culturally rich people whose achievements were many. They had farms, beautiful palaces, and cities with many buildings. The Mayan people knew a lot about nature and the world around them. This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time, because they could use it to make their lives more comfortable and rewarding. Knowledge about tools and farming, for instance, made their work easier and more productive.
The Maya believed in many gods, including rain gods, sun gods, and corn gods. The people built large temples to honor the Mayan gods. Skillful workers built cities around these temples. It was difficult for them to construct these cities, because they had no horses to carry the heavy stone they used to build with. Workers had to carry all of the building materials themselves. Today, many
of these ancient Mayan cities and temples are still standing.
Although the cities that the Maya built were beautiful, and the people worked hard to build them, very few of the people lived in them. Usually, only the priests lived in the cities.
The other people lived in small villages in the forests. Their houses were much simpler than the elaborate structures in the cities. They lived in small huts with no windows. The walls were made of poles covered with dried mud, and the roof was made of grass or leaves. Most Maya lived a simple life close to nature.
Around the year 900, the Maya left their villages and beautiful cities, never to retun. No one knows why this happened. They may have died from an infectious disease. They may have left because the soil could no longer grow crops. Archaeologists are still trying to find the mystery.

Passage Three
      One of the greatest mysteries in biology---how the monarch butterfly (帝王蝶)travels thousands of kilometers on its yearly migration ---has just been solved.
Monarch butterflies use the sun to set their body clocks and make their journeys, according to US scientists. No other butterfly in the world migrates like the orange and black monarchs of North America. They cannot live for long periods in cold weather. Each autumn, thousands travel up to 3,000 km to spend the winter in the mountains of Mexico
It usually takes the butterflies two months to reach Mexico. After staying five months, they head back up north in the spring. But not one butterfly finishes the whole round-trip. They lay eggs along the way and die
Three generations of butterflies will live and die during the spring journey alone. The fourth and final generation of the year is born in early autumn and will reach the north. But it hardly gets to rest before starting the long journey south to Mexico
The most amazing thing about these butterflies is that they return to the very same tree Mexico that their great-great-grandparents used the winter before. Past studies have shown that the insects use the sun as a compass to show them the way. But experts are unsure how the butterflies change their direction as the sun moves in the sky.
This new study now shows that the insects use a" 'circadian(生理节奏的 clock in their bodies as part of their sun compass. In laboratory tests, monarch butterflies were found to fly in the right direction under normal daylight hours. But those flying in 24-hour light headed straight towards the sun. That is, they no longer had any sense of time
Scientist Steven Reppert, who led the research, said:” We have shown the need for the circadian clock for monarch butterfly migration. When the clock is interrupted, monarchs are unable to fly towards Mexico”
46. This passage is mainly about        
A. the importance of migration for monarch butterflies
B the guidance of the sun in monarch butterflies’ navigation
C. how long monarch butterflies can travel to spend the winter
D. how monarch butterflies use their body clock as part of their sun compass
47. Which of the following statements is TRUE about monarch butterflies?
A. Their color is orange and black
B In spring they fly south to Mexico
C. Only a few of them can finish the round trip
D. Each autumn they fly north to North America.
48. The most surprising finding about the butterflies is that        
A. they use the sun as a compass
B. not one butterfly finishes the whole-round trip
C. it takes as long as two months for the butterflies to fly to Mexico
D. they can find the same tree in Mexico that their ancestors used the winter before
49. What can we learn from the passage about past studies and the new discovery?
A. The new discovery throws light on an old mystery
B The new study discovers the use of the sun as a compass
C. Past studies discovered the new function of a body clock
D. Past studies showed how the butterflies could change direction.
50. What was found about monarch butterflies in the laboratory?
A. They lost their sense of time easily
B. The sun was not important in their migration
C. Their body clocks were interrupted by the sun
D. Those flying in 24-hour light lost their sense of time
 
Section Two: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentence from A-G for each blank. There are two extra sentences which you do not need.
Passage Four
A. There are textbooks, notebooks and test papers.
B. Instead, they use palm-sized, or specially designed computers
C. They can look up information on any subject they’re studying from math to social science.
D. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test papers
E. But, with all this technology, there will be no risk that the machines will break down.
F. As a result, with all this technology, there will be no risk that the machines will break down.
G. The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them into his or her own electronic grade book
Imagine a classroom missing the one thing that’s long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing: paper.      51         And there are no pencils or pens, which, after all always seem to run out of ink at the critical moment
  A “paperless classroom" is what more and more schools are trying to achieve. Students don’t do any handwriting in this class.    52      The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every students personal computer.
Having computers also means that students can search the Web      53         
And exams can go online too. At a high school in Tennessee, students take tests on their own computers.     54       
A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper. Stephanie Sorrell, a school teacher in Kentucky, said she used to give about 900 pieces of paper each week to the students. "Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers,"she said.
     55      So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available for these hi-tech students.

In the past few years, Q-zones have become more and more popular among Chinese people, especially young people. The number of Q-zones has reached 100 millions so far in China. It is a great pleasure to decorate Q-zones with beautiful photos and touching background music.
Q-zone is in fashion out of the following two reasons. First, Q-zone re basically free of charge and no one could reject a free lunch. Second, Q provide a free and convenient place for netizens to communicate with each other.
However, Q-zones may inevitably have some problems. First, your personal information in Q-zone may be lost. Second, potential violators may steal your password with Trojans and your online friends. As Q-zones have become a convenient and necessary place for communication in today's China, I hope the departments concerned will take effective measures to guarantee the security and purity of Q-zones.
