At first, sunlight 37 the leaves, making the ground bright. Birds sang happily, and everything felt peaceful.But as Tom 38 deeper, the trees grew thicker,blocking most of the light.The paths he knew slowly 39 , and soon he couldn't find his way back. His heart beat fast—he was 40 ! The cold sweat ran down his neck,but he 41 a rule from his survival book: “Stay calm and look for help.” Tom took a deep breath and looked around 42 . On some tree trunks, he saw strange 43_ —small arrows carved(雕刻) by someone.Though his legs felt 44 , he decided to follow them. To avoid getting more lost, he used a 45 to make simple marks on the trees every few steps. He walked for hours.

After three hours, the trees became fewer.Tom 48 a road in the distance and ran towards it.When he finally got out of the 49 , the sunset painted the sky golden.

Their conversation took place after the scientists sent a “communication call” into the ocean off the coast of Alaska.The same call was made for 36 times over a 20-minute period.Each time,Twain called back. Professor McCowan said that the research could make it easier to talk to aliens and better understand what aliens' intelligence might be like. _________________________ Scientists use technology to train dolphins to learn more about the ocean.They put small sensors ( 传 感 器 ) on dolphins. These sensors can get information about water temperature,saltiness and ocean flows.Then the sensors send the information to scientists for study right away. Dolphins swim well and have great senses.With the help of technology,they become good helpers for scientists to study the ocean. Sharks help to find seagrass areas Scientists have discovered the world's largest known field of seagrass.They did it by using videos shot by some unusual helpers:tiger sharks.Seagrass can help clean the ocean's water.But seagrass in the deep ocean is hard to find.The scientists tied cameras to the fins of seven tiger :sharks.The cameras were designed to fall off after a few hours and float on the surface.The scientists got hours of videos that recorded the process of the sharks travelling for miles over the sea floor. ( )51.In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news? A.NATURE. B.SPORTS. C.CULTURE. D.CUSTOM. ( )52.Who do scientists hope to talk to one day? A.Humpback whales. B.Aliens. C.Dolphins. D.Sharks. ( )53.The best heading for the second piece of news would be______. A.Dolphins' underwater life B.Scientists' small sensors C.Dolphins' help with studying the ocean D.Scientists' favourite sea animals ( )54.What can we know about seagrass? A.It is helpful to shoot videos. B.It can be easily found. C.It is put into the sharks' fins. D.It is good for sea water. ( )55.What does the news above focus on? A.Ocean research. B.Animal talk. C.Strange people. D.Helpful cameras. B As we often use eyes to see nature, most of us“lose”the ability to listen to the world. Peter writes music.He likes sounds and uses natural sounds as part of his music. He often went out to the wild with his microphone and recorded interesting sounds to put in movies or to use in his own songs.Instead of trying to capture just the sound of one animal,he recorded the sound of everything all together—the animals,the trees,the wind and the earth.He called these recordings “soundscapes”—the sound of a certain place.Every soundscape Peter recorded had a lot of information. Back in his workshop, Peter used a computer to make a picture of all the sounds going on in a place.Each animal had its own place on the picture—its own notes in the music.The busier the picture is, the richer the life is in that place.“While a picture may be worth 1,000 words, a soundscape is worth 1,000 pictures,”Peter said,“Our ears tell us the sound of every leaf and animal and speak to the natural sources(来源)of our lives,which may hold the secrets of love for all things, especially our own humanity.” But not everything is pleasant.When Peter began recording over forty years ago, he could record for ten hours and get only one hour of usable material that is good enough for a movie. Now, because of human activities,it can take up to 1,000 hours or more to get the same thing.Some of the places he has recorded over the years have slowly fallen silent. His sound pictures show that although nature might look the same to humans,it has lost part of its orchestra(管弦乐队).So next time you are in the forests,try another way to look— shut your eyes, and listen. ( )56.Why did Peter record natural sounds? A.To write songs for a music group. B.To discover rich lives in the forest. C.To use some of them in his music. D.To make music about nature. ( )57.What does the underlined word“capture”in paragraph 2 mean? A.Shut. B.Catch. C.Touch. D.Check. ( )58.What is a sound picture according to the passage? A.The sound of every leaf and animal in nature. B.The sound recorded in the natural environment. C.A picture of music with sounds of 1,000 animals. D.A picture of music with natural sounds in a place. ( )59.What can we learn from paragraph 4? A.Recording sounds needs less time. B.Sound pictures are the same as before. C.Some beautiful sounds in nature are lost. D.Human activities improve recording results. ( )60.What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A.Nature is the source of our future. B.Nature has wonders to be heard C.Making music enriches our lives. D.Making music needs information. C Deep under the Pacific Ocean lie coral reefs coloured by some algae(海藻)that live with corals. Corals usually provide nitrogen(氮)to algae,and in return they get carbon(碳),which gives them energy. In the early 1980s,a huge heat wave turned more than 90 per cent of these corals a pale and lifeless white.And it was believed that about 50 per cent of reefs with beautiful corals might disappear by 2030.Heat waves warmed up the same area of the Pacific waters in the late 1990s and again in 2015—2016,but scientists noticed that these heat waves didn't influence the reefs as badly as the first. Maybe corals have found a way to adapt (适应). Swimming to cooler waters is not a good choice for corals,for it makes them easily hurt by the changing climate. But corals are able to adapt. Some turn to those algae that can deal well with heat. Others can use rows of tiny hairs on their bodies to“fan” away too much harmful oxygen(O₂)let out by stressed-out algae. Certain baby corals change their own metabolism(新陈代谢)in order to fight the warming waters.But all these adaptations can protect themselves only to some degree. After studying and understanding these adaptations,scientists are trying to find ways to help corals fight.If researchers can make corals accept algae that can deal with heat pressure or if they energize genes (基因)that can deal with heat pressure,it will increase the corals' chance of living through future ocean heat waves. “When I go down to the sea and see a beautiful healthy reef with these colourful corals, I feel the pleasure of being in this underwater world,"a famous biologist says.“It will be really sad to see it dead.But that does drive you to want to use your skills and love to help fight.” ( )61.What can we know from paragraph 1? A.Corals make the algae more colourful. B.The algae provides room for corals to live in. C.Corals and the algae depend on each other. D.The algae produces nitrogen to influence corals. ( )62.What does the underlined part“the first”in paragraph 2 refer to? A.The heat wave in the early 1980s. B.The heat wave in the late 1990s. C.The Pacific waters in 2015—2016. D.The reefs' disappearance by 2030. ( )63.What difficulty do corals face? A.They cannot completely adapt to heat waves. B.They cannot change their own metabolism. C.They have no ability to swim to cooler waters. D.They have no ability to drive away harmful oxygen. ( )64.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.It's necessary to live with corals B.The ocean has become unhealthy. C.We should try our best to save corals. D.Studying the ocean plants is a must. ( )65.Which would be the best title for the passage? A.Corals Die Out B.Corals Fight Back C.Corals Break Down D.Corals Come into Being 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共40分) 五、词与短语填空(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 仔细阅读下面短文，用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使 短文在结构、句义和逻辑上正确。(提示：方框中有两个单词或短 语是多余的。) Have you ever been to Zhangjiajie?
