Ⅱ. 阅读理解
A study published in today’s edition of the Science finds that，overall，species are moving to higher latitudes(纬度)at 10. 5 miles per decade. The rate is two or three times faster than when it was last measured in 2003. “The climate is shifting everything towards the north and higher latitudes，”says Chris Thomas，the author on the paper and a professor at the University of York in the United Kingdom. “Animals，plants and insects closer to the equator are starting to find it too hot and are retreating upwards. ”
The study was an analysis covering 764 species moving north or south depending on which hemisphere(半球)they were in. Although each species moved at different rates and some even moved towards the equator，overall the strong trend was towards the poles. For the most part，it’s not that animals are walking，hopping or winging their way north，Thomas says. Rather，individuals at a species’ southernmost range are breeding(繁殖)less successfully while individuals in that same species’ northernmost range are breeding more successfully. The result is that the entire species moves up.
“There is practically no basis to doubt the fact that species are shifting as a function of rapidly changing climate. ” says Jeremy Kerr, a professor of biology at the University of Ottawa in Canada, who did not participate in the study. One species Kerr studies is the bog copper, a beautiful little butterfly that appears to practically be on an expressway to the North Pole. It has moved more than 90 miles north in the past decade.
For farmers，what crops they grow and livestock they keep is also beginning to shift, says Philip Thornton，an agricultural economist in Nairobi，Kenya. In Africa，small farms are changing the kinds of animals they keep. In Northern Kenya，there is a move in some places away from the traditional cattle to camels，which are more drought resistant；the price of adult camels there is increasing quite rapidly. (367W)
1. Which picture can describe the result of the study? 2. According to the third paragraph，we can learn a fact that.
A. the animals are moving northwards so fast
B. there are too many species at poles
C. fewer babies are born in the south
D. not all animals move to higher latitudes
3. The example of the bog copper is mentioned to tell us that it _______.
A. can fly as fast as an express
B. is moving northwards at a high speed
C. blocks the way towards the North Pole
D. prefers to travel on an expressway
4. In the last paragraph，farmers prefer camels _______.
A. because of the size’s changes of their farms
B. as a result of changing climate
C. with the purpose of earning more money
D. due to the changes in crop growing
5. We can infer from the passage that _______.
A. immediate action has been taken to prevent the immigration
B. rare animals can only be found at poles in not so far future
C. it is natural for species to adapt themselves to the environment
D. changes in climate make no difference to people’s life
Ⅲ. 任务型阅读
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格处填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted (走神) by e-mail, the Internet or other things throughout the day? “People often lose their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks, ” says Peter Bregman. “They sometimes have a feeling to escape from what’s difficult or boring, so they jump out, ” he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain’s emotional center. Any strong emotion—quarrels with colleagues, problems at home—can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.
Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, “Stop and listen to music for a few minutes. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly. ” This can “blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus. ”
Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors. “Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness, ”Mr. Bregman says, “You have to inform yourself that you’ve lost focus in order to do something about it. ” Starting the day with a to-do list is important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it’s overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. “Choosing three or four things as your priority (优先) for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus, ” he says.
Topic How to become more (1) ______ on the work?
(2) ______ of getting distracted ·People tend to get away from things that they’re (3) ______ up with.
·Strong (4) ______ affect the brain’ s part for attention.
·People get distracted easily if (5) ______ multitasks at a time.

·(9) ______ your time effectively and create awareness of your behaviors.
·Make a to-do list at the beginning of a working day.
·Focus on three or four things and get them done (10) ______ for the day.
