3.Mapping Antarctica
Antarctica was on the map long before anyone ever laid eyes on it.Nearly 2,400years ago,ancient Greek philosophers such as Aristotle believed that a great continent must exist at the bottom of the world.They thought it was needed to balance out the continents at the top of the world.In the 1500s,mapmakers often included a fanciful continent they referred to as Terra Incognita (Latin for"unknown land") at the bottom of their maps.But it was not until the 1800s----after explorers had sighted and set foot on Antarctica----that mapmakers got down to the business of really mapping the continent,which is one-and-a-half times the size of the U.S..
While the coastline could be mapped by ships sailing around the continent,it took airplanes----and later,satellites----to chart Antarctica's vast interior (内陆).That job continues today.And it is a job that can still require a mapmaker,or cartographer,to put on boots and head out into the wild.
Cole Kelleher is familiar with that.He is a cartographer with the Polar Geospatial Center (PGC),which is based at the University of Minnesota and has a staff at McMurdo Station.PGC teamed up with Google to use the company's Trekker technology to capture images of Antarctica for the Internet giant's popular feature,Street View.A Trekker camera,which is the size of a basketball,is set about two feet above a backpack.The camera records images in all directions."It weighs about 50pounds.I was out for two and a half days,hiking 10to 12hours each day,"says Kelleher.It was hard work,but really an incredible experience."According to Kelleher there are plans to use the technology to create educational apps for museums.

The PGC staff at McMurdo Station provides highly specialized mapmaking services for the U.S.Antarctic Program.For one project,Kelleher used satellite images to map huge cracks in the ice.That helped a team of researchers know whether they could safely approach their field camp on snowmobiles.Another recent project was to help recover a giant,high-tech helium (氦气) balloon used to carry scientific instruments high into the atmosphere.These balloons are launched in Antarctica because there is no danger that they will hurt anyone when they fall back down to Earth.Using satellite images,Kelleher and colleagues created maps of where the balloon could be found.
Antarctica may no longer be Terra Incognita,but it still holds countless mysteries.Cartographers and the maps they make will continue to be essential in helping scientists unlock those secrets.

74.From the passage,we can infer that Antarctic was on the map in the 1500s whenC.
A.mapmakers knew it was much larger than the U.S.
B.Aristotle named the continent Terra Incognita
C.no one had ever seen or been to the continent
D.it was such an interesting continent as was often referred to
75.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?B
A.It needs much work for the mapmakers to head out into the wild.
B.The interior can only be mapped by planes and satellites.
C.It is relatively easy to map Antarctica's coastline by ships.
D.Antarctic is a vast but still mysterious continent.
76.The Polar Geospatial Center (PGC) works with Google initiallyA.
A.to capture images of Antarctica for Street View
B.to test the company's Trekker technology
C.to create educational apps for museums
D.to hike for an incredible experience
77.The fourth paragraph mainly talks aboutD.
A.satellite images which are used to map huge cracks in the ice
B.a high-tech helium balloon for carrying scientific instruments
C.how to safely approach the researchers'field camp and the balloon
D.the specialized mapmaking services provided by the PGC staff.

4.The world shares him and London claims him,but Stratford-on-Avon intends to spend 2016 celebrating Shakespeare as their man:the bard(诗人)of Avon,who was born there in 1564,and died there 400years ago.
Stratford remained hugely important throughout Shakespeare's life,argues Paul Edmondson,the head of learning and research at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.
"People have seen Shakespeare as a Dick Whittington figure,who turns his back on Stratford and his family,goes to London to earn his fortune and only comes back to die,"
he said."But Stratford is where he bought land and property,where he kept his library,
where he lived and read and thought.We are going to spend the year re-emphasizing the importance of Shakespeare,the man of Stratford."
The anniversary of the death of the most famous and the most performed playwright in the world will be marked across Britain and the globe.Macbeth is about to open in Singapore,Romeo and Juliet in Brussels.Shakespeare's Globe is completing the first world tour,in which it has taken Hamlet to almost every country.North Korea is still holding out,though.
The Globe director recently jokily claimed Shakespeare as a true Londoner.Stratford,
however,will be insisting that the town made and educated Shakespeare."His old school
room in Stratford-on-Avon where Shakespeare learned‘small Latin and less Greek'-as kindly laughed at by his friend Ben Jonson-will open its doors,scarred by centuries of naughty schoolboys,to mark 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death,"said Paul Edmondson.
Shakespeare bought the splendid New Place,the second best house in the town,when he had made his fortune on the London stage."You don't buy a house like New Place and not live there,"Paul said.He believes that after Shakespeare bought it,all his thinking time was spent there,and that the late plays,including The Tempest,were at least planned in his library and probably written there.

28.What made people regard Shakespeare as a Dick Whittington figure?A
A.His life experiences.
B.His achievements in literature.
C.His popularity in London.
D.His contributions to Stratford.
29.Where is the play Hamlet resisted?C
A.In Brussels.
B.In Singapore.
C.In North Korea.
D.In London.
30.What can we know about New Place?D
A.The Tempest was totally finished there.
B.Shakespeare learned Latin and Greek there.
C.It was completely destroyed by naughty schoolboys.
D.Shakespeare probably spent his last few years there.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?B
A.Bard of London       
B.Man of Stratford
C.Life of Shakespeare  
D.Plays of Shakespeare.

17.The story of Juno and Lucas is one of the mos t touching stories about the amazing relationship between humans and their companion animals.
Juno is a Belgian Malinois(比利时马犬).The dog was beautiful but was given up by its owners,as they did not want to take on the responsibility.
Lucas,a little boy,had a strange illness,a condition that stops the body's ability to process enzymes(酶).As his life continues,he will lose the ability to speak and his physical and mental abilities will degrade till he is left in a vegetative(植物人的)state.The average life expectancy for the patients is 15 years.
Chester,the boy's father,wanted his child to enjoy his life on earth as much as possible and looked into getting a service dog for the child.However,Lucas wasn't a good candidate due to his deteriorating(恶化的)abilities,not to mention the $15,000 cost of the animal.
Not terrified by all of this,Chester looked into adopting a dog for his son.He found Juno on a website and drove two hours to meet her.Chester had worked with the breed(品种) in the police force and was familiar with how to train them.He put in patience and hard work,and trained Juno while allowing her to become accustomed to Lucas.Now,not only will Juno not leave Lucas'side,she is also helping with his illness.Chester said,"She has the ability to notice his neurological changes.Now she reminds us when Lucas is about to have a seizure(疾病发作) or if his oxygen levels drop really low.She has saved him several times."
Companion animals are beautiful things and they establish a bond that can't be described without experiences.I know that I held my adopted dog a little closer after hearing this story.There are a lot of dogs out there that need good homes and that won't be as lucky as Juno.So,if you think you're prepared,you should consider giving one a nice home.

3.Founded by Louis Cartier in Paris France in 1847,Cartier is well known in the fashion world.It is recognized as (32)one of the world's most distinguished luxury brands.Most early years of Cartier (33)were devoted(devote) to serving royal families and celebrities.King Edward VII of England referred to Cartier as"the jeweller of kings and the king of jewellers."The company remained under family control (34)until 1964when an investment group bought the business.
Many of Cartier's famous products were produced (35)by chance.In 1904,the Brazilian pioneer pilot,Alberto Santos-Dumont complained to Louis Cartier about the unreliability and impracticality of using pocket watches (36)while flying.In result,Cartier designed a flat wristwatch named"Santos".(37)As soon as it was available on the market,the watch was loved by not only Alberto Santos-Dumont but also other customers.It wasn't long (38)before the Santos watch became the most popular men's wristwatch then.
In 1907,Cartier began to work with a businessman named Edmond Jaeger,(39)whoagreed to exclusively supply the movements for Cartier watches.By that time,Cartier (40)had established(establish) branches in many cities.It was these earliest shops that witnessed Cartier's amazing development into today's leading jewelry and watch brand.
