24、rder. She lost most of her ability to hear when she was 18. As a child and during her teenage years, Harvey was a singer. But she stopped singing for a time after she went deaf.But she decided to start singing again after she learned how to feel a songs beat through the wooden floor of a stage or th

25、eater. She uses visual aids to make sure her musical instruments are tuned correctly and she is singing in the correct pitch (音高).Harvey is now a professional singer. But until Tuesday night, not many people in the United States had heard of her. Of course that changed when she appeared on the telev

26、ision show “Americas Got Talent.” The show has four judges who watch people perform and decide if they should continue in the competition.Mandy Harvey appeared on stage with a small instrument: a ukulele. A sign language interpreter stood next to the judges. One of the judges, Simon Cowell, asked Ha

27、rvey about the condition that caused her to go deaf. Then she got ready to perform. She sang a piece she wrote, called “Try.” Harvey said: “After I lost my hearing, I gave up. But I want to do more with my life than just give up.” Cowell said: “Good for you,” and clapped his hands loudly.As she was

28、singing，one camera cut away to capture images of people in the theater. Many were seen crying. At one point, everyone stood up and cheered. By Wednesday afternoon, a video of Harveys performance had been played 46 million times.Shortly after she finished singing, Cowell smiled, and said “Mandy, I do

30、?ABy senses of touch. BBy her instrument.CBy experience.

32、ience.24（8分） Have you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard, maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”, often used in a situation-a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement. Accor

33、ding to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm?A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storm-a single-cell thunderstorm. In this type of thunderstorm, there is usually

34、 only one main stream of current, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground. Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directionseven from the direction in which

35、the storm is traveling.As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a low-pressure vacuum(真空) coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapor in it changes into t

36、iny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles(颗粒) like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud,

37、 the air is squeezed out at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.Most thunderstorms, though, dont start with calm. Thats b

38、ecause most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. Theres so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm, it might be really windy!1、Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm?AA thunderstorm w

39、ith a single shape.BA thunderstorm without strong winds.CA storm with air drawn from every direction.DA storm fueled by moving air from the ground.2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?AWarm and wet air.BWarm and dry air.CCold and wet air.DCold and dry air.3、Which does the wri

40、ter most likely agree to?APresence of the calm relies on stable air.BAll thunderstorms dont start with the calm.CThe drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.DStorm happens without air moving up and down.4、What is the passage mainly about?AA brief introduction of a peaceful storm.BA personal e

41、xperience of a heavy storm.CAn explanation of the calm before a storm.DAn analysis of causes and effects of a storm.25（10分）Now people are very concerned about the food problem. Steve Wilson prefers organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. He is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible,

42、the 30-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.“Organic product is always better,” Wilson said. “The food is free of pesticides(农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not that it is locally

43、 grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty.” Wilson is one of the growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they

44、willing to pay a higher price for organic product? Market research shows that Wilson and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferencesbut their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic product

45、s. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported(进口)to meet growing demand. “The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market,” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.1、Why does Steve Wilson pr

46、efer organic fruit?AIt is delivered right lo the doorstep.BMore and more people buy organic fruit.CHe likes home-grown fruit very much.DHe considers the fruit free of pollution.2、What does the underlined words “the organic trend” in Paragraph 2 mean?AGetting the food anywhere.BGrowing food at home.C

47、Better quality of organic food.DGrowing interest in organic food.3、Why does Sue Flock say it is a very fast-growing market?ABecause of a rapid increase in the demand for it.BBecause it is produced on large farms.CBecause it cant be produced on family farms.DBecause of its proper prices.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的
