The islanders 47 the crab meat and then pack it and send it to the 48 . They do not cook the lobsters. They send them 49 to restaurants in many of the large 50 of Europe.

Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends,    31   must be willing to take actions. You must first go to the place_ 32   are people. You won’t make friends    33  home alone.   34   a club or group, for talking with those who like the same things as you do is    35    . Or join someone in some activity. Many people are nervous when talking to people. After all, meeting strangers means facing    36   . And it’s human    37   to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown.
Most of our fears about dealing with new people    38    doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us,    39    us too tall or too short, too this or too that.   40   don’t forget that they must be feeling    41     way as you. Try to accept yourself    42    you are, and try to put the other person at ease. You will ____43___ feel more comfortable.
Try to act self-confident even if you don’t feel that way.   44   you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look ___45___ at other people and smile. If you see someone you’d like to   46   to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to  47   a conversation.
Just meeting someone    48   doesn’t mean that you will make friends with that person. Friendship is  49   on mutual (相互的) liking and “give and take”. They take time and   50    to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.

Man-made Causes
Man-made causes probably do the most damage. There are many man-made causes. 21 is one of the biggest man-made problems. Pollution 22 in many shapes and sizes. Burning fossil fuels is one thing that causes pollution. Fossil(化石) fuels(燃料)are fuels made of organic matter such as coal, or oil. when fossil fuels are burned they 23 a green house gas called CO2. Also mining coal and oil allows methane to escape. How does it escape? Methane(甲烷)is 24 in the ground. 25 coal or oil is mined you have to dig up the earth a little. When you dig up the fossil fuels you dig up the methane as well.
Another major man-made 26 of Global Warming is population. More people 27 more food, and more methods of transportation, right? That means more methane because 28 will be more burning of fossil fuels, 29 more agriculture. Now you’re probably thinking, “Wait a minute, you said agriculture is going to be damaged by Global Warming, but 30 you’re saying agriculture is going to help cause Global Warming?” Well, have you 31 been in a barn filled with animals and you smell something 32 ? You re 33 methane. Another source of methane is manure. Because more food is needed we have to raise food. Animals like cows are a source of food which means more manure and methane. Another problem 34 the increasing population is 35 . More people means more cars, and more cares means more pollution. Also, many people have more than one car.
Since CO2 contributes to global warming, the increase in population makes the problem worse because we breathe out CO2. 36 , the trees that change our CO2 to oxygen are being demolished because we’re using the land that we cut the trees down from as property 37 our homes and buildings. We are not replacing the trees(an important part of our ecosystem), so we are 38 taking 39 of our natural resources and giving nothing back in 40 .

Ⅱ．语言知识及应用(共两节，满分45分)
第一节完形填空(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从16—30各题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Everyone has experienced trying but failing to master a difficult book, which was begun with the hope of increasing one's understanding. When that happens, it is    16  to think that it was a mistake to try to read it, but that was not the mistake. The mistake was in    17   too much from the first reading of a(n)   18   book. If you read it in the right way, no book written for the    19    reader, no matter how difficult, need be a cause for despair (绝望).
What is the right method? The    20   is an important and helpful rule of reading that is either not known or often forgotten. That rule is simply this: when reading a difficult book for the first time, read it through without ever    21   to think about the things that you do not understand immediately.
Do not be stopped by what you can't understand. Read through the difficult    22   , and you’ll soon come to things that you do understand. Read these    23   . You will have a much better chance of understanding all of the book when you read it again, but that    24   you to have read the book through once    25   .
What you understand by reading the book through to the   26   will help you when you try later to read the places that you did not    27    in your first reading. Or if you never re-read the book, understanding half of it is much better than understanding nothing of it, which will happen if you allow yourself to be stopped by the first difficult part of the book.
Most of us were taught to    28   the things that we do not understand. We were told to find the  29  of unfamiliar words, and to try to find an explanation in another    30   for anything that we did not understand in the book that we were reading. But when these things are done before the proper time, they only harm our reading, instead of helping it.
16. A. necessary              B. useful                    C. natural                  D. effective

Mum keeps telling me “Turn the radio down!” or “Can’t you listen to anything else” or “I don’t know how you can 36 with all noises.” Even my friends at school don’t appreciate the 37 I love, and my best friend told me I am a ‘radio junkie.’
I thought about the music that 38 me each day. It represented a wide range of music 39 ——I certainly wasn’t narrow—minded. I don’t only listen to hard roc, but also to music from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, and it isn’t really that 40 . Perhaps my mum and dad aren’t as square as I thought they were, if that’s the sort of music they 41 .
While music is the most important 42 I listen to my radio, it’s not the only one. my favorite station has many 43 presenters, from the wake—up show to the latest night ‘stop—outs’, and with all sorts of up —beat variations in between. My ‘must—listen—to’ 44 is the top 40 countdown where I get to   45 all the latest and very best music selections.
Do I learn anything form the 46 I listen to? Of course I do! If you listen   47 to the lyrics of most songs, they have something to 48 about every aspect of life. People who are sad, mad, glad or bad, all 49 their feelings in the songs they sing or in the music they play. You see, I’m learning 50 other people cope with these feelings, and in some small way, it’s helping me too.
Competitions, talk—back programs and the dreaded ‘ads’, are all 51 of radio, but it’s the music that attracts me most. I’ve   52 learned to do all sorts of things while listening to the music on the radio. I can do my homework, play sport, have a shower, get dressed,   53 while listening to the radio!
I’d rather not be 54 radio junkie, but if that’s the word that describes my radio listening 55 most exactly, then I guess I’ll have to live with it. my music suits me and I suit my music.
