A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south fields The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for aftemoon tea.if you don’t trust me ,then perhaps you’ll take if from Virginia Woolf—over a century after Byron,she reportedly took a trip to swin in the same pool.

Harvard researchers have created a tough, low-cost, biodegradable(可生物降解的) material inspired by insects’ hard outer shells. The material’s inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly altermative to plastic. The material, made from shrimp(虾) shells and proteins produced from silk,is called “shrilk .” It is thin, clear ,flexible and strong.
A major benefit of the material is ist biodegradability. Plastic’s toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and ‘60s. Decales later, however. plastic’s very durability(耐用性) is raisting questions about how appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags, or short-lived consumer goods,used in the home for a few years and then cast into a landfill where they will degrade for centuries. What is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years?
Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill, but its basic coponents are used as fertilizer(肥料),and so will enrich the soil.
Shrilk has great potential, the inventors said. Materials from which ist is made are plentiful in nature, found in everyting ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plant. That makes shrilk low cost, and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material.
Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab. The inventors said the material becomes flexible
When wet ,so they’re exploring ways to use it in wet environments. They’re also developing simpler production processes, which could be used for non-medical products, like for computer cases and other products inside the home.They’re even exploring combining ist with other materials, like carbon fibers, to give it new properties.
66.Paragraph I of the passage is mainly about shril’s_______.
A. remarkable design
B. intrersting name
C. major features
D. basic elements
67. What has become a concem about plastic?
A. Using it properly
B. Producing it cheaply.
C. Developing its properties quickly.
D. Evaluating its contributions fairly.
68.According to the inventors, shrilk has great potential partly because_______.
68.According to the inventors ,shrilk has great potential partly because________.
A. it can help plastic degrade
B. it can be found in living things
C. its mass production has been realized
D. its raw materials are abundant in nature
69.What are the inventors doing in the lab?
A. Replacing carbon fibers with shrilk.
B. Testing shrilk’s use in wet conditions.
C. Making shrilk out of used household goods.
D. Improving shrilk’s flexibility for medical purposes.
70. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Recent Progress in Environmental Protection
B. Benefits of Insects in Scientific Research
C. The Harm of One-time Products
D.A Possible Alternative to plastic
Part IV Writing(45marks)
Section A(10marks)
Directions: read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Since the earliest civilizations, people have controlled rivers to meet society’s demands. Tody , rivers are controlled for many reasons, primarily to maintain reliable water supplies for daily, agricultural and industrial needs, for power generation, for navigation (航行),and
To prevent flooding.
Rivr control is achieved by channelization, a term that covers a range of river engineerin works, including widening, deepening,straightening and stabilization of banks, and by the construction of dams.
An important period of channelization took place in Europe during the 19th century, when many large rivers were straightened and their beds deepened. One of the most dramatically changed was the Tisza, designed to reduce flooding and make land for agriculture,included cutting off more than 100 meanders (河曲),shortening the river’s length by nearly400 kilometers.
One of the most common ways in which people control rivers is by damming them.The past 50 years or so has seen an increase in dam construction worldwide, and at the beginning of the 21st century, there were atout 800,000 dams globally,some towering more than 200 meters in height.
Despits their success, many dams also cause significant environmental changes that prove harmful. Some particularly deep reservoirs (水库) can bring about earthquakes due to the stress on their bottom rocks caused by huge volumes of water. Downstream of a reservoir,the river is certainly influenced in many ways:water volume, speed and quality are all affected ,leading to changes in the landscape and among plants and animals.
71.River control 72.Reasons
73.supply 74.agriculture
75.flooding 76.deepening
77.stabilizing 78.shortening
79. dam construction 80. the environment
