16、ounded veterans（老兵）learn they have two basic choices: They can receive almost $ 3 ,000 a month in disability benefits along with medical care and access to other various welfare programs, or they can try to find a job. Especially in this economy, its no wonder that many find that first option hard t

17、o turn down.Mark Duggan, an economics professor at Stanford University, reports that enrollment in the U. S. veterans disability programs rose from 2.3 million in 2001 to 3.9 million in 2014. The percentage of veterans receiving benefits doubled, from 8.9% in 2001 to 18% in 2014. Disability services

18、 for veterans now consume $59 billion.In the 1980s and 1990s, male veterans were more likely to be in the labor force than nonveterans. But since 2000, that has changed dramatically. Now there is a 4% gap between veteran and non-veteran labor participation, with veteran participation lower.Navy SEAL

19、 Eric Greitens, the founder of The Mission Continues, explains how soldiers who served their country are transformed into welfare receivers who live off their country.“When veterans come home from war they are going through a tremendous change in identity, ” he says. “Then the United States Departme

20、nt of Veterans Affairs, and others, encourage them to view themselves as disabled.” By the time they come to Greitens non-profit organization, “We meet a number of veterans who see themselves as charity cases and are not sure anymore what they have to contribute.”There are also more practical factor

21、s driving the disability boom. One is the expansion of qualification criteria. In 2000, for instance, type 2 diabetes was added as a disability because of evidence linking exposure to Agent Orange with the onset of the disease. Heart disease has also been added to the list.Another possible factor is

22、 that younger veterans seem less against welfare than their parents generation. Veterans who have served since the 1990s are much more likely to sign up for disability than their older counterparts; 1 in 4 younger veterans is on disability, versus just 1 in 7 of those over age 54.We shouldnt go back

23、 to the bad old days when veterans were afraid to admit weakness. But Lt. Col. Daniel Gade is one of many veterans who think our disability system is harmful, psychologically, to former soldiers. Gade lost his leg in combat in 2005 and now teaches at West Point. He recently gave a talk to disabled v

24、eterans at Ft. Carson, in which he urged them to rejoin the workforce.“People who stay home because they are getting paid enough to get by on disability are worse off,” he warned. “They are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol. They are more likely to live alone.”What a waste of human potential, e

25、specially since most veterans on disability still have their prime working years ahead of them when theyre discharged（遣退）.We could solve this problem by changing the way we view-and label-veterans with disabilities. As Gade noted in a recent article, “Veterans should be viewed as resources, not as d

26、amaged goods.” He recommended that “efforts to help veterans should begin by recognizing their abilities rather than focusing only on then disabilities, and should serve the ultimate aim of moving wounded soldiers to real self-sufficiency.”On a more practical note, the United States Department of Ve

27、terans Affairs could reallocate（再分配）resources to spend more on job training and less on disability. Current placement programs are sadly inadequate.We are good at sending soldiers off to war. Yet when these young men and women return home, they are essentially told, “Well give you enough for a reaso

28、nably comfortable life, but we wont help you find a job.”It is unreasonable that we are condemning thousands of young veterans who served their country to life on the dole（失業救濟金）rather than enabling them to re-enter the workforce with the necessary accommodations.1、What do more and more wounded vete

BBy giving examples.CBy performing experiments. DBy an

DReceive many disability benefits.4、One of the reasons why there are more disabled veterans is that .Adamage from the war is greater than eve

31、rBveterans have suffered much more than everCthe scale of disabilities has been broadenedDolder veterans arent afraid to admit their disability5、In Cades opinion, the veterans who receive welfare from the government tend to _.Asave more trouble for the governmentBlead a miserable and unhappy lifeCin

32、creasingly depend on the governmentDsuffer the humiliation of their combat injuries23（8分）Over the past century, an alarming number of animals have become endangered or even extinct. Below are some animals whose numbers have been rapidly dropping in recent years.Panda BearOne of the biggest reasons c

33、ontributing to the decline in the panda species is the destruction of its natural habitat. Farmers in China have gradually been claiming more and more of the land. As a result, pandas are forced to move away to places where it is hard to find bamboo for food.Green TurtleThe green sea turtle species

34、has survived for several millions of years, so you might wonder why its only becoming endangered now. A major cause is the change in climate and temperature, which both affect the hatching rates of turtle eggs. Climate changes also cause violent weather and rising water levels to flood areas where t

35、urtles usually go to lay their eggs. Apart from this, oil spills and other poisonous pollution, as well as increased fishing activities can cause sickness, or even death to the green turtles.CheetahCheetahs are famous for being the fastest animal on land but even they cant run from some of the large

36、r threats that have harmed them. Like the panda bears, cheetahs have gradually been losing their natural homes due to humans claiming land and developing in those areas. To make matters even worse, smaller animals move away when these areas are occupied, which means that the cheetah has less food! D

37、ont forget that other large animals, such as lions, are also fighting for any food that they can find, so occasionally young cheetahs end up as prey too.Indian ElephantElephants are extremely intelligent animals and also the largest mammals that live on land. Sadly, in Asia many elephants were kille

38、d so that people could remove their tusks to use as decorative objects. While this practice has been banned now, some people still illegally continue. Forests in India have also been steadily destroyed and elephants are sometimes killed when they end up on human territory.1、Humans increasing demand

39、for land doesnt affect the number of _.AIndian elephants BcheetahsCpanda bears Dgreen turtles2、We can save the largest mammals living on land by _.Aplanting more bamboosBhelping them find matesCstopping hunting themDpreventing poisonous pollution3、The living conditions of the fastest animal on land

40、become worse because _.Aforests have been destroyedBthey are threatened by humans and larger animalsCpeople are fond of hunting wild animalsDno law bans people from removing their tusks24（8分）Science textbooks around the world have become suddenly out of date. Four new chemical elements(元素)have been

41、added to the periodic table. A big decision now lies ahead-elements 113,115,117 and 118 need to be given their official names and symbols.New elements can be named after a mythical(神話的) concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property(性質) or a scientist. The names have to be unique and maintain hi

42、storical and chemical consistency. This means a lot of -iums.Theyre Latinising the name, explains chemist Andrea Sella. The most recent tradition is to name them after places or people. The places chosen tend to be where the element was discovered or first produced.No one has yet named an element af

43、ter themselves but many elements are named in honour of important scientists. Albert Einstein was given einsteinium. This can also be a way of righting the wrongs of the past. Lise Meitner was really the chemist who spotted nuclear fission(核裂變)but she was never really recognised for it because she w

44、as Jewish and a woman, says Sella. Giving an element a name that reminds us of her is greatly important. The naming process isnt quick. The scientists who discovered them will start things off by suggesting a name. But it will be down to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC)

45、to approve it. A special division of the US-based group has to accept the suggestion. Then there is a public review period of five months before the IUPAC gets the final approval. Once its ready, the name is announced in the scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry.Naming an element is not just

46、 about functionality. Names are always important.1、What is the function of Paragraph 1?ATo introduce the topic.BTo present a finding.CTo point out a problem.DTo call for a decision,2、Why was Lise Meitner mentioned in the naming process in Paragraph 4?ATo praise her.BTo build her reputation.CTo corre

47、ct the wrongs of the past.DTo end racial discrimination3、Who has the final say in the naming process of an element?AThe scientist who discovered them.BThe special division of US-based group.CThe scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry,DThe International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.4、Wh

48、at is the passage mainly about?AHow elements get their names.BWhy science textbooks are out of date.CHow new elements are discovered.DHow functional naming an element is.25（10分）And then there were nineThe past two decades have seen astronomers catalogue of planets expand over two hundred times, as n

49、ew techniques and better telescopes have found more than 2,000 of them orbiting stars other than the sun. But in the solar system itself, the list of planets has actually shrunk, Pluto（冥王星）having been downgraded from that status in 2006. The number of the suns planetary companions has thus fallen fr

50、om nine to eight.Now, a pair of astronomers from the California Institute of Technology think they have evidence that will restore the suns record to its previous value. Their analysis of objects orbiting in the Kuiper Belt（柯伊伯帶）, a ring of frozen asteroids（小行星）that circle beyond the orbit of Neptun

51、e (and of which Pluto is now regarded as the largest member), suggests to them that something about ten times as massive as Earth has changed those orbits. If you knew where to look, this planet-sized object would be visible through a suitable telescope. And Konstanin Batygin and Michael Brown belie

52、ve they do know.As they write in the Astronomical journal, they have analyzed the orbits of Kuiper Belt objects and found six that behave in a peculiar way. As the diagram shows, the points of closest approach of these objects to the sun, known as their perihelia（近日點）, almost coincide. Moreover, the

53、se perihelia all lie near the ecliptic（黃道）-the plane of Earths orbit and also, approximately, that of the other planets-while the objects orbits are all angled at 30 below the ecliptic. The chance of all this being a coincidence, the two researchers estimate, is about seven in 100,000. If it is not

54、a coincidence, it suggests the six objects have been guided into their orbits by the gravitational intervention of something much larger.A computer analysis Dr Batygin and Dr Brown performed suggests this something is a planet weighing 5-15 times as much as Earth, whose perihelion is on the opposite

55、 side of the sun from the cluster, and which thus orbits mainly on the other side of the solar system from the objects its orbit has affected. This planets perihelion would be 200 times farther from the sun than Earths, and the far end of its orbit might be as much as six times that distance away. T

56、his gives a search zone, and Dr Batygin and Dr Brown are using Subaru, a Japanese telescope, to perform that search.Given other demands on Subarus time, it might take five years for this search to find (or not find) the hypothetical planet. But looking at some existing data from. The Widefield Infra

57、red Survey Explore, a satellite, might also show it, if it is there to be seen.Ironically, it was Dr Brown as much as anyone who was responsible for Plutos downgrading, for he discovered Eris, an object almost as big as Pluto, in 2005.That discovery did much to damage Plutos planetary proof. By his

58、own admission, he was skeptical that the anomalies he and Dr Batygin have investigated actually would point to the existence of a replacement ninth planet. He is a skeptic no longer. Whether he is actually right may soon become apparent.1、According to Dr Batygin and Dr Browns research, it is quite p

59、ossible that _.APluto will restore its status as a planet of the solar systemBthe six objects in the Kuiper Belt sharing some similarities is a mere coincidenceCthere are nine planets in the solar systemDEris is a replacement ninth planet of the solar system2、Which of the following is NOT true about

60、 the hypothetical planet?AIt may have changed the orbits of six objects in the Kuiper Belt.BYou can see it through a domestic telescope if you know where to look.CCompared to earth, the distance from its perihelion to the sun is about 200 times larger.DA satellite may be able to provide some evidenc
