David Miles, an Australian inventor has been arrested because of cheating farmers. He charged the farmers up to $50, 000 Australian dollars for delivering rain on demand.
On the Miles Research website, Miles explains that he can influence weather by creating a bridge between the “present” and a “near-future event”. By applying small amounts of energy, he can change the future weather system.
Miles does not explain in detail how he is able to bring rainfall to the lands of farmers. He makes references to famous concepts like “the butterfly effect”. “We were advised not to show how it works. There are a lot of big companies that are trying to steal our secret. The only way is to fully prove our science and physics. “
Miles’ claims raised public suspicion for obvious reasons. A statement on his company website says that his technology uses “electromagnetic scalar waves”, which, according to scientists, doesn’t even exist. Therefore, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has warned people against doing business with him. But Miles claimed that the ACCC was only trying to harm the fame of his company. If it didn’t rain, he wouldn’t get paid.
“Consumers signed the agreement with my company. If by the end of June they receive 100mm of rain, they will pay $50, 000. If they only receive 50mm, they will only pay $25, 000. Anything under half of that, we don’t want to be paid, “ Miles said a handful of farmers agreed to take his offer to deliver rain.
Believe it or not, one of the farmers who paid David Miles for his so-called rain-making service said that he was quite happy with the results.
31．According to David Miles, what does his business do
A．To reduce the temperature. B．To change the solar energy.
C．To predict the future events. D．To influence the weather system.
32．Why did ACCC warn people against doing business with Miles
A．Because he charged too much for the services.
B．Because his practice will do harm to national safety.
C．Because he didn’t report his technology with ACCC．
D．Because his ‘‘electromagnetic scalar waves” doesn’t exist.
33．Which word is similar to the underlined word in meaning
A．Dishonesty. B．Doubt. C．Crime. D．Superpower.
34．How much will be paid to Miles if the farmers receive 15mm of rain
A．$0. B．$12, 500. C．$25, 000. D．$50, 000.
35．What can be inferred from the passage
A．Miles needed safer facilities for his business.
B．Miles brought about good crops as expected.
C．Miles has successfully attracted some farmers.
D．Miles was supported by official organizations.
C
Is there anything strange high up in the world’s tallest mountains If so, is it a big bear Is it a monkey Or is it a kind of man
No one knows. This mystery has puzzled people around the world for years. In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints in the snow when he was climbing the Himalayas. They looked like the footprints of a huge man. But men don’t walk without shoes in the snow. People wondered at the large footprints and guessed what they were from.
In 1906, another climber saw more footprints. And they were printed on the mountainside where men couldn’t reach. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran away very quickly.
Fifteen years later, newspapers had new stories about the “something” in the Himalayas. A mountain climber said he had seen the “snowman” walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man.
From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of the large footprints. The pictures showed clearly that the Snowman walked on two legs. So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an ape（猿）man
The mystery grew! And the mystery keeps growing. Someday we may find out just what it is that makes the large footprints.
36．Why were people interested in the footprints ________
A．Because they were footprints of a large bear.
B．Because they looked like the footprints of a large man.
C．Because they were left by a strange man with shoes.
D．Because they were found in the world’s tallest mountains.
37．Where were the footprints found in 1906 ________
A．On the top of the mountain. B．At the foot of the mountain.
C．On the mountainside. D．In the valley.
38．Why did the mystery grow when a climber brought the pictures back ________
A．Because the picture showed the footprints were of an ape man.
B．Because the picture showed the footprints were of a Snowman.
C．Because the pictures showed clearly how the Snowman walked.
D．Because the pictures showed clearly how an ape man walked on two legs.
39．How long have the large footprints puzzled people before the climber took the photos ________
A．For nineteen years. B．For thirty-four years.
C．For sixty-four years. D．For a hundred and thirty years.
40．What is the passage about ________
A．Some mountain climbers. B．Some strange animals.
C．The creatures on the Himalayas. D．The mystery of the footprints.
D
The sun sets on a field in southern England. When it rises again the following morning, that field has been changed into a huge work of art. A large part of the crop (庄稼) has been pressed into a pattern of circles, squares and other shapes.
Farmers have reported finding strange circles in their fields for centuries. The earliest mention of a crop circle dates back to the 1500s. Crop circles, however, didn’t get attention until 1980, when a farmer in England discovered three circles in his field. The world first began to learn about crop circles.
By the 1990s, crop circles had become something of a tourist attraction. In 1990 alone, more than 500 circles appeared in Europe. Within the next few years, there were thousands.
Crop circles can come in many different shapes, changing in size. Most early crop circles were simple. But after 1990, the circles changed. Crops can be made to look like just about anything — smiling faces, flowers or even words.
People have long been wondering who or what is creating these crop circles. Possibly the most widely known idea is that crop circles are the work of visitors from other planets.
Probably the most scientific opinion says that crop circles are created by vortices (涡旋). They force the air down to the ground, which presses the crops down. Dr. Terence Meaden, an expert, says when the dust (沙尘) gets caught up in a vortex, it can appear to glow (发光), which may explain the UFO-like glowing lights many people have seen.
41．How does the author introduce the topic
A．By telling a story. B．By asking a question.
C．By giving a comparison. D．By describing a scene.
42．When did the world become interested in crop circles
A．In the 1500s. B．After 1980. C．In 1900. D．After 1990.
43．Which of the following is TRUE about crop circles in Paragraph 4
A．Early crop circles were very small in size.
B．Large crop circles were usually round in shape.
C．Crop circles of all kinds began to appear after 1990.
D．Flower-shaped crop circles were first found in the 1500s.
44．Which point do you think Dr. Terence Meaden would agree with
A．Crop circles may be man-made.
B．Crop circles could be marks left by aliens.
C．The UFO-like light could be caused by dust.
D．Vortices are sure to create perfectly shaped crop circles.
45．Which is the best way to divide the passage
A．①/②③/④/⑤⑥ B．①②③/④/⑤/⑥ C．①/②③④⑤/⑥ D．①②③/④⑤⑥

参考答案：
1．C

考点：疑问词辨析
2．C
【详解】句意：——妈妈，我现在可以去游泳吗？——是的，亲爱的，但是记着你必须和你的爸爸一起去。A. may可以； B. can能；C. must必须；D. might可能。根据下文go with your dad.可知这里是必须。根据题意，故选C。

【详解】句意：那个男孩看起来比Gina更大，他可能是Gina的弟弟。A. maybe可能，副词；B. might be可能是；情态动词+be；C. perhaps也许；D. maybe not可能不是。这里是缺少谓语动词，应该用情态动词+be，根据题意，故选C。
4．B
【详解】句意：Jack的书包是红色的，因此这个黄色的不可能是他的。A. mustn't禁止；B. can't不能；C. might可能；D. mightn't可能不是。根据上文Jack's backpack is red可知下文是有把握的否定推测，用can’t。根据题意，故选B。
【分析】表推测时,英语中只使用must,may,might,may not和can't.这五个表达的语气依次递减：
must:一定（语气肯定）
may：也许（不很肯定）
might：或许（比may语气更弱）
may not：也许不（表否定）
can't：一定不（must的反义）
推测现在的事情用must,may,might,may not和can't+do或be
e.g.She must be at home now.
The boy may play now.
推测过去的事情用must,may,might,may not和can't+have done
e.g.She might have been ill yesterday.
He must have hold the party.
注意：表推测的must,may,might,may not和can't是不可以与I think...连用.因为I think...已有推测的含义,故不能连用

7．A

8．A

【详解】句意：——当地震发生的时候，你听见一些奇怪的声音吗？——不，当时我在花园里享受着我鸟儿美妙的声音。noise噪音；sound自然界的一切声音；voice嗓音。第一个空是自然界的一切声音，用sound，第二个空是鸟叫的声音用voice。根据题意，故选D。
【分析】sound，noise和voice这三个名词都可表示“声音”，但是，它们表示的“声音”并不相同。
1. sound作“声音”，“响声”讲时，可以指人或动物发出的声音，或物体碰撞的声言。这个词的使用范围很大。可以说，大自然的任何“声音”都可以用sound。例如：
At midnight he heard a strange sound.
半夜里他听到一种奇怪的声音。
Light travels much faster than sound.
光的传播速度比声音快得多。
2. noise意为“噪音”、“喧闹声”，常指不悦耳、不和谐的嘈杂声。例如：
Don’t make any noise!
别吵闹!
The noise wakes me up.
噪音吵醒了我!
The noise of traffic kept him awake.
车辆的喧闹声使他睡不着。
3. voice一般指人的声音，说话、唱歌。谈笑都可用voice。sound和noise不仅能指人的声音，还可以表示别的动物发出的声音;而voice除了有时可指鸟的声音外，很少表示其它动物的声音。例如：
The girl has a beautiful voice.
那女孩嗓音很美。
They are talking in low voices.
他们正小声交谈。
When the teacher came into the classroom，our monitor spoke in a loud voice，“Stand up!”
老师走进教室时，班长大声喊：“起立!”

12．C
