B As our boat moves quickly up and down in a windy ice-filled small bay, I try to judge the health condition of the polar bear （北极熊）in front of me. We are in Franz Josef Land, a remote part of Russia between the Barents Sea and the Arctic Ocean. While offshore bears follow the sea ice, hunting seals （海豹）on ice all year round, bears that live by the sea spend their summers on land and are forced to search for whatever they can find. Relying on low-calorie meals such as the eggs of nesting seabirds, it is harder for these bears to pack on the poundS. Researchers recently found that offshore bears around the Barents Sea are some of the most polluted animals on Earth. This is a direct consequence of the seals they feed on. Over a period of 14 years study, Heli Routti from the Norwegian Polar Institute found that offshore female bears were in a better health, having greater body weight, than female bears by the sea, but on average their levels of pollutants called PFASs are 33 percent higher. PFASs are used to make industrial products which are poisonous and degrade （降解）very slowly. These pollutants find their way to the Arctic through air, where they fall in snow and gradually add up in the ice. As the ice melts every summer, the PFASs go into the water, where they enter the food chain. They eventually make their way into the fat that keeps seals warm and from there into the bears that eat them. During my 15 days in Franz Josef Land, I saw five bears, all living by the sea. Each looked relatively healthy. There are signs that these bears are dealing with the global-warming-caused ice loss relatively well. “The bears, so far, seem to be handling the sea ice loss, says Andrew Derocher at the University of Alberta, who worked with Routti on the study, But Im sure thats going to change if the speed of ice loss increases sharply in the area. 24. From the text we can learn polar bears living by the sea . A. eat seals on ice all year round B. look for food on land in summer C. become the most polluted animals on Earth D. stay on the ice in summer to avoid hot weather 25. What does the underlined part “pack on the pounds in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Put on weight.B. Move around. C. Fight against pollution.D. Live alone. 26. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The rate of PFASs degradation. B. The effects of PFASs on the environment. C. The process of PFASs entering polar bears. D. The application of PFASs in modem industry. 27. According to Andrew Derocher, what will happen if the sea ice loss increases? A. More pollutants may go into the air. B. It will make no difference to bears. C. The death rate of seals may increase. D. Bears might fail to adapt to the change. C If you want to learn a language, try sleeping on it. This is the advice from researchers at Swansea University who are studying the interaction between sleep patterns, dreaming and memory consolidation （记忆巩固）the process for laying down memories in the brain more securely. In a study to be published in Journal of Sleep Research, the scientists looked at how sleep and the value attached to pieces of information a fleet their memorability. Participants in the study slept in a specially designed lab, while their brain activity was being monitored. Native English speakers who had recently arrived in Wales had to memorize Welsh words and were tested on them 12 hours later. One group had to remember the information during the daytime, while the other slept on it in the lab. The sleepers performed much better in a test of their newly acquired vocabularyand caring about the Welsh language further improved performance. Related work in the sleep lab, presented at the British Science Festival, aims to understand whether they are a byproduct of other events occurring during sleep. To understand the timing and content of dreams, the team analyzed the dreams participants reported in their own words, immediately on being woken. This research found that the likelihood of experiencing a dream is particularly highabout 80 per cent during REM sleep. This part of the sleep cycle, characterized by rapid eye movements, is thought to play an important role in memory consolidation. Electrical activity in the brain varies significantly at different stages of sleep. This helped researchers to monitor the length and quality of sleep, and to wake participants at particular points in the sleep cycle. The research found daytime events were more likely to be formed into dreams with a one-day delay and to happen again and again after another five to seven nights. This is called the dream-lag effect. 28. What is the study mentioned in the text mainly about? A. The way to learn a language.B. The effect sleep has on memory. C. The experiment in a specially designed lab.D. The phenomenon of dream-lag effect. 29. What does the underlined word them in the 3rd paragraph refer to? A. The sleepers.B. The Welsh words. C. The researchers.D. The native English speakers. 30. What do we know about REM sleep? A. It always comes with a dream.B. It is harmful to humans. C. It is important to memory consolidation.D. It lasts throughout the night. 31. From which section of a magazine is the text most probably taken? A. Economy.B. Entertainment. C. Society.D. Science. D She was the 19th-century founder of modem nursing, known for her continuous care of wounded soldiers in the Crimean War. In an earlier age of contagion （接触性传染）,she was far ahead of her time in realizing that cleanliness, fresh air and open-air exercise helped patients recover from injury and disease. Now an unpublished letter that Florence Nightingale received as a teenager from her father shows that he was a major inspiration in shaping her approach to a healthy mind and body. In 1835, William Nightingale wrote to his daughter setting out a routine for keeping fit. Exercise for 10 minutes every day before breakfast. Before you dress do the exercise of the arms 20 times. In the course of the day, 20 minutes exercise must be done and if not done well, another 10 minutes should be added . Some new poetry to be learned and two things prepared for this evening. If any of these things arent finished, you will work them up the next day. The letter will feature in a book, Florence Nightingale at Home, to be published in November. The letter is among the unpublished materials on which the books four authors have drawn and it offers new insights into her pioneering work. Nightingale had a happy childhood at a time of widespread child labor and high baby death rates when most people lived in small, unclean houses and hospitals were dirty and badly run with many patients having little hope of coming out alive. When Nightingale first became famous, people were amazed at the idea that someone used to living in a country house would give that up in order to nurse the poor. Her own parents were also shocked to learn that she wanted to become a nurse in an age when nurses were thought of as morally wrong. William Nightingales 1835 letter was among the unpublished materials unearthed from piles of boxes at Claydon House where Nightingales sister lived, now a National Trust property. 32. Why did Florence Nightingales father write the letter to her? A. To ensure her a happy childhood. B. To plan a road to success for her. C. To inspire her to build a healthy mind and body. D. To make her the founder of the modem nursing. 33. What can be inferred from the text? A. Florence Nightingale was a soldier in the Crimean War. B. Florence Nightingale disliked his fathers way of education. C. Most people in Florence Nightingales time suffered a lot. D. Florence Nightingales parents were amazed at her decision. 34. Which of the following best describes Florence Nightingale? A. Curious and patient.B. Determined and caring. C. Attractive and honest.D. Humorous and hardworking. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The strictness of a great father.B. The founder of modem nursing. C. A review of Florence Nightingale at Home.D. A significant letter to Nightingale. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2. 5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Heres why Disney World doesnt have mosquitoes （蚊子） There is a lot that goes into making Disney World the Most Magical Place on Earth”.

Once caught, the mosquitoes are then frozen and studied in labs where experts discover the best ways to keep mosquitoes off of our skin when we arrive on-site. 39 Due to the birds immunity to mosquito-borne viruses such as West Nile they can be used to observe the presence of the virus without experiencing any harmful symptoms （症状）after that. The chickens are kept in cages, unlike flying birds that would travel long distances. So, if a virus is detected, it is easy for Disney to find out exactly which part of their parks has been affected by viral mosquitoes. Occasionally, Disney has had to close certain sections of their park during the busiest times. 40 Its time of year when we can finally get back outdoors in Disney with family and friends without worry.
