The final yield of the tested variety, G3﹣1S/P19, came to 1046.3 kg per mu （about 667 square meters）, based on two plots of land in Qingzhu Village under the city of Hengyang in central China's Hunan Province."Some previous high﹣yielding hybrid rice varieties in China took 160 to even 180 days from sowing to harvesting, while the figure was shortened to around 125 days for the new variety. This is one of the most important characteristics of the third﹣generation hybrid rice that can reduce the use of pesticides and fertilizers, thus reducing cost and improving production efficiency. " saidQianQian, the deputy director of the China National Rice Research Institute.Unlike the previous two generations that required a large amount of water and fertilizers as well as demanding growing conditions and technological support, the third﹣generation hybrid rice is easier to be planted by ordinary farmers. So the soil, altitude and climate of the test site were not "ideal conditions" carefully selected beforehand but were close to the paddies(稻田) of ordinary farmers.Nowadays, China's average yield of rice is about 500 kg per mu. Ordinary farmers can produce 600kg to 700 kg of rice per mu by growing some excellent second﹣generation hybrid rice varieties. However, under the same planting conditions and environment, the yield of the third﹣generation hybrid rice could reach 800 kg per mu. China now feeds around 20 percent of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's arable（可耕种的）land.At present, Yuan's team has nine third﹣generation hybrid rice combinations under trial, which are expected to achieve commercial seed production in the following three to four years and hope to apply the technology into the research of sea rice. The third﹣generation hybrid rice has the comprehensive strength to promote a greener and more sustainable development of China's rice production with higher quality and yield.28．What feature of the new hybrid rice doesQianQian mainly talk about？A．It saves a lot more water.B．It achieves a higher yield.C．It saves much more farmland.D．It has a shorter growing period.29．Why is the new hybrid rice not tested in ideal areas？A．The ordinary farmers master planting technology.B．The researchers want to reduce the experiment cost.C．The growing conditions the new hybrid rice needs are simple.D．The previous rice farming provides researchers with experience.30．What is the fourth paragraph mainly about？A．The high output of the third﹣generation hybrid rice.B．The promising future of the new hybrid rice variety.C．The advanced technology of the research on hybrid rice.D．The differences between the three hybrid rice varieties.31．Which one could be the best title of the text？A．The Development of China's RiceB．The High Yield of the New Hybrid Rice C．The Contribution of the Great ScientistD．The Way to Feed the World's Population                                 DStudents and Technology in the ClassroomI love my blackberry (黑莓手机)— it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备) and truly communicate with others.On one occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule-no laptops, IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.Most students think that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration (专心) and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion.I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a rally good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.32．Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with ______.A．the course material B．others’ misuse of technologyC．discussion topics D．the author’s class rules33．The underlined word “engage” in para.4 probably means ______.A．explore B．accept C．change D．refuse 34．According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ______.A．keep students from doing independent thinkingB．encourage students to have deep conversationsC．help students to better understand difficult themesD．affect students’ concentration on the teacher’s ideas35．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ______.A．is quite stubborn in teaching B．will give up teaching historyC．will change his teaching plan soon D．values technology-free dialogues in his class第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）Technology is here to stay. ___36___. However, they are often unsure on how to help children use technology responsibly and keep a balance between online and offline time. Here are some tips.Have a device contract（合同）Having a device usage contract allows parents and children to work through what responsible technology usage looks like in your family and ensure that everyone is aware. ___37___. Kids are more likely to make sense of the reasons you have for restriction.___38___Although this tip seems like common sense, it is often difficult due to the demand of work and the expectation of being constantly connected. By ensuring you build offline time into your own day and communicate that with your children, they will see the value and benefits. Whether you are reading a book or just taking a walk, letting your children be aware of your offline actions will encourage them to do the same!Encourage non-tech activitiesOne great way to keep kids off their screens is to ensure that they have other activities to fill their time. ___39___. These activities are also great ways to help children to develop their social skills and confidence.Tech-free family timeOnce a week, pencil-in a “tech-free family time” in your schedule. It can be a meal or trip. To help increase the success of outings, try designing special activities, i. e., going to the beach to build a sand castle that looks the same as a photo you have found online. ___40___A．Model good technology useB．Communicate with childrenC．A little extra planning goes a long wayD．The contract is helpful to the settlement of conflictsE．Parents are seeing more technology in their homes and jobsF．Also, drafting the contract together promotes understandingG．This can come in a variety of forms: soccer, fencing and more第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。For the last few years, Elijah Cossio, a Houston teen, has been assisting his mother Tina Hernandez with her hospital bills by holding a daily bake sale after school.

In the early 19th century, when an outbreak of cholera hit Europe, millions of people died from the disease. As a young doctor, John Snow became 57           (frustrate) because no one knew how to prevent or treat cholera. In time, he rose to become 58           famous doctor. However, he never lost his desire to destroy cholera once and for all.In general, doctors in those days had two contradictory theories to explain how cholera spread. Snow subscribed 59            the second theory. It was correct, but he still needed proof. 60            (consequence), when an outbreak of cholera hit London in 1845, Snow began to investigate. He discovered that in two particular streets the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why.Snow began by marking on a map the exact places 61            all those who died had lived. There were multiple deaths near the water pump in Broad Street. However, some  62            (household) had had no deaths . These people had been given free beer, and so had not drunk the water from the pump. Snow suspected that the water pump was 63       (blame). As a result of his evidence, John Snow was able to announce that the pump water carried cholera germs. The truth was 64           the water from the Broad Street pump had been infected by waste. Accordingly, he had the handle of the pump 65          ( remove) so that it could not be used. Through this intervention, the disease was stopped in its tracks. 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分）第一节（满分15分）你校英语报组织征文比赛，请以“我心中最伟大的科学家”为题，写一篇短文参赛。内容包括：1.人物简介；2.人物事迹；3.人物精神。注意：1.词数80左右；2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。The Greatest Scientist in My Heart______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________  第二节（满分25分）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使其构成一篇完整的短文。In 1989 an 8.2 earthquake almost destroyed America, killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes.

Come on, face reality, there’s nothing you can do!”To each parent he responded with one line: “Are you going to help me now?” And then he continued to dig for his son, stone by stone.The fire chief showed up and tried to pull him off the school’s ruins saying, “Fires are breaking out, explosions are happening everywhere. You’re in danger. We’ll take care of it. Go home.” To which this loving, caring American father asked, “Are you going to help me now?”The police came and said, “You’re angry, anxious and it’s over.

She finished middle school at the age of 16. At 24 she left for Paris and entered Paris University. In Paris she lived a very simple life and studied very hard. Madame Curie devoted her whole life to the study of science. She won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1903 and for chemistry in 1911.It is not easy for a woman to succeed in her work. It is even more difficult for a woman to win the Nobel Prize twice in her life.

After screaming his son’s name, “ARMAND!” he heard back, “Dad?! It’s me, Dad!” The faint but familiar voice brought tears of relief to his eyes. “What’s going on in there? How is it?” the father asked anxiously, digging more forcefully with his bare hands.“There are 14 of us left out of 33, Dad,” Armand replied, “We’re scared, hungry, thirsty and thankful you’re here. When the building collapsed, it made a triangle, and it saved us.” “Come out, boy!” the father yelled eagerly. “No, Dad! Let the other kids out first, because I know you’ll get me! No matter what happens, I know you’ll always be there for me!”
