第1题：
Why does it take long for people to change their food?
A． Because labs are not easily accessible to researchers.
B． Because some people are reluctant to accept the new diet.
C． Because food consumption is a culture of conservation.
D． Because some scientists are against the growing lab meat.
细节推理题。由文章最后一段中的最后两句话“But food consumption is a conservative culture phenomenon．It cad take several generations to change．”内容可以得出结论，作者认为食品消费一直以来都是一种保守的文化现象，因此正确答案是C。
参考译文：
新型的健康肉制品将不再是诸如猪肉或是自然饲养的牛肉了。如果那些有远见的科学家成功了的话．将来的肉制品无论从口感还是外观上看都与以前的没有什么,区别，唯一不同的只是它们是在实验室里制成的。
一些专家正在从事这样一项工作：他们把含有动物肌肉细胞的肉养在盘子里。而现在的技术离这些肉上市还有很长一段路要走。但是专家坚信这将是产生一种新型美国饮食的有效方法，这样的肉对人体也会更健康。此外，这种在实验室里研制出来的肉制品意味着专家们可以对肉的脂肪、蛋白质和其他一些指标进行控制，从而生产出污染少的肉制品。那么或许到那时麦当劳的早餐肉就能使人们远离而不是让人患上心脏疾病。
然而，仍有一些科学家对此产生了质疑。他们说：“无论从技术还是经济上来说，这都不实际。”毕竟，肉制品不是简单的肌肉细胞组合，而是一种由脂肪、神经、血管和相关组织结合在一起的复杂结合体。每种细胞在其成品的口感上都起着一定的作用。这种结构的模仿对产品具有良好的口感是必需的。事实上，在实验室里研制肉制品并不是一种新的观点。早在1912年，一位法国科学家就做过这样一个试验：他将鸡心上的组织养在有营养旁的玻璃瓶里。这些肌肉组织存活了30多年——竟然比这位科学家活的时间还长!至于成本，专家们正试图将其降低。因为现在这种实验室肉制品一磅大约要花费1000至5000美元。就目前的消费水平来说，人们根本无法接受。
在这个禽流感、疯牛病不断出现，人口密度不断加大，探测火星的壮志不断升华的时代，实验室肉制品必将会走向市场。但是食品消费一直以来都是一种保守的文化现象，对这一趋势的适应还需要很长的时间。

Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points)
In his autobiography, Darwin himself speaks of his intellectual powers with extraordinary modesty. He points out that he always experienced much difficulty in expressing himself clearly and concisely, but (46) he believes that this very difficulty may have had the compensating advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and thus enabling him to detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations. He disclaimed the possession of any great quickness of apprehension or wit, such as distinguished Huxley. (47) He asserted, also, that his power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited, for which reason he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics. His memory, too, he described as extensive, but hazy. So poor in one sense was it that he never could remember for more than a few days a single date or a line of poetry. (48) On the other hand, he did not accept as well founded the charge made by some of his critics that, while he was a good observer, he had no power of reasoning. This, he thought, could not be true, because the “Origin of Species” is one long argument from the beginning to the end, and has convinced many able men. No one, he submits, could have written it without possessing some power of reasoning. He was willing to assert that “I have a fair share of invention, and of common sense or judgment, such as every fairly successful lawyer or doctor must have, but not, I believe, in any higher degree.” (49) He adds humbly that perhaps he was “superior to the common run of men in noticing things which easily escape attention, and in observing them carefully.”
Writing in the last year of his life, he expressed the opinion that in two or three respects his mind had changed during the preceding twenty or thirty years. Up to the age of thirty or beyond it poetry of many kinds gave him great pleasure. Formerly, too, pictures had given him considerable, and music very great, delight. In 1881, however, he said: “Now for many years I cannot endure to read a line of poetry. I have also almost lost my taste for pictures or music.” (50) Darwin was convinced that the loss of these tastes was not only a loss of happiness, but might possibly be injurious to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character.
(46) he believes that this very difficulty may have had the compensating advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and thus enabling him to detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations
本句的考查点是that引导的宾语从句，主干是he believes that….that从句的结构是this very difficulty may have the….advantage of forcing…, and thus enabling…。Of后面forcing和enabling组成的并列结构做advantage的同位语。
参考译文：达尔文认为正是因为这个困难，促使他对每一个句子进行长时间和针对性的思考，同时也使得他在观察和推理中发现错误。这也就使他具有了别人所不具备的优势。

D
Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.
“Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily,” Tony said, ”You don’t have any luggage, right?”
“Only this backpack,” Brian answered. ”You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”
“That’s right. One carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”
“Thanks.”
Is Brian a criminal(罪犯)? Not at all. He is an air-courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.
Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone. But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!
52. Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel?
A. Because they were the uniforms for air couriers.
B. Because that made him easier to be recognized.
C. Because his backpack had no room his clothes.
D. Because he did not have any luggage with him
