A young emperor penguin won’t be getting a free ride all the way back to its Antarctic home, but its human friends in New Zealand will help it to get a little closer.

The penguin is recovering well at Wellington Zoo, where it had a medical procedure on Monday to wash out much of the beach sand it had swallowed, apparently mistaking it for snow.

It may need a few months to recover, but wildlife officials have been trying to figure out how the 3-foot-tall bird will get home. Transporting it to Antarctica is near-impossible in the southern winter, and there are fears that the penguin may have acquired infections in the warmer New Zealand environment that could spread to other penguins.

On Wednesday, a group headed by the Department of Conservation decided officials would help the penguin get part of the way home by releasing it into the Southern Ocean, southeast of New Zealand—and letting it swim the rest of the way. “The reason for not returning the penguin directly to Antarctica is that emperor penguins of this age are usually found north of Antarctica on pack ice and in the open ocean,” the department’s spokesman Peter Simpson said.

The bird is estimated to be about two and a half years old, a juvenile(幼雏) in a species that reaches breading age at around four or five. It will be released on the northern edge of the region where young emperor penguins are known to live. Simpson said he was unsure how far the penguin would have to swim before reaching its final destination.

The logistics for the trip haven’t been set and the penguin wont’ be released until it has recovered, which could be months. Until then, it will remain at the zoo.

The penguin drew intense interest after being spotted on North Island’s PekaPeka Beach, about 2,000 miles(3,200 kilometres) from the Antarctic cost. It was the first emperor penguin spotted in the wild in New Zealand in 44 years.

“The bird is isolated in an air-conditioned room filled with large blocks of

ice,” said zoo spokeswoman Kate Baker.

24. We can learn from the second and third paragraphs that_______. A. the penguin will have a medical examination B. the penguin might be transported directly home. C. the penguin is now in good health.

D. the penguin ate sand instead of snow by mistake. 25. According to the passage, Peter Simpson_________. A. is an official working at Wellington Zoo B. is the head of the Department of conservation C. is he spokesman of the Department of Conservation D. knows exactly how far the penguin has to swim home

26. The underlined word “logistics” in the passage means_______. A. practical arrangements B. designed symbols C. skilled experts D. strong disagreements 27. What can we infer from the passage?

A. The penguin is staying at the zoo with other birds. B. The penguin will not be released because it is very young. C. The people of New Zealand are concerned about animals and birds. D. The people of New Zealand haven’t seen this kind of penguin before.

When John Kinnear’s wife became pregnant, her boss warned the soon-to-be father that he gained 10 pounds for every child he’s had.

A new study released in the American Journal of Men’s Health analyzed the BMI of more than 10,000 men from adolescence into their mid-30s through data collected from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. By comparing three groups—nonfathers, resident fathers(who live wit their children) and nonresident fathers—researchers from Northwestern Medicine discovered the dad groups showed an increase in BMI between adolescence and fatherhood.

In fact, a regular 6-foot-tall man living with his child gained an average of 4.4 pounds after becoming a dad for the first time, according to the study. There was

only a slight difference for the nonresident dads. Those fathers gained, on average, 3.3 pounds. Meanwhile, nonfathers lost 1.4 pounds over the same period.

The results were surprising to the study’s lead author, Dr. Craig F. Garfield, especially given his earlier research that fatherhood motivated men to improve their health habits.

“Regardless of what kind of father you were,” Garfield said, “your weight actually increased. So all fathers ended up increasing their weight as they went through fatherhood.” Garfield serves as associate professor of pediatrics(儿科) and of medical social sciences at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and attending pediatrician(儿科医生) at Ann &Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.

The study accounted for factors such as race, education, income and screen time as well as marriage status, which have been shown to affect weight. Though all the young men’s BMI showed an increase over time due to age, additional weight gain was shown to be contingent(因情况而异的)on fatherhood status, according to the study.

The study only speculates(推测)why fatherhood leads to extra pounds. But Garfield’s noted his weakness for finishing his kids’ leftover frozen pizza.

Kinnear was not surprised by the study. “ I love to cook and eat healthily, but when than I did before I had kids,” said Kinnear. “I love to cook and eat healthily, but when it comes to compromises on time, I will trade a healthy meal for more time with my kids every time.”

28. According to the study, how many pounds does a regular 6-foot-tall man living with his child generally gain after becoming a dad for the first time?

A. 10 pounds. B. 4.4 pounds. C. 3.3 pounds. D. 1.4 pounds.

29. The best title of the passage is_________. A. Fatherhood Increases Your Appetite B. Fatherhood Motivates You To Lose Weight C. Fatherhood Makes You Fat

D. Fatherhood Makes You Fat.

30. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? A. The study mainly compared nonfathers and resident fathers. B. John Kinnear’s wife gained 10 pounds after she was pregnant.

C. Dr. Craig F. Garfield’ s earlier research showed that fatherhood motivated men to lose weight.

D. Kinnear was not surprised by the study.

31. The underlined word “BMI” in the second paragraph probably stands for_______. A. Body Mass Index. B. Brain Memory Index. C. Baby Mass Index. D. Boy Mass Index.

D

In Japan many workers who work in large corporations have a guarantee of lifetime employment. During their employment, they will not be laid off during recessions(经济萧条) or when the tasks they perform are taken over by robots. To some observers, this is what they call capitalism at its best, because workers are treated as people not things. Others see it as necessarily inefficient and they also believe it cannot continue if Japan is to remain competitive with foreign corporations by being more concerned about profits and less concerned about people.

Defenders of the system argue that those who call it inefficient do not understand how it really works. in the first place not every Japanese worker has the guarantee of a lifetime job. The lifetime employment system includes only “regular employees”. Many employees are not included in this category, including all women. All businesses have many part-time and temporary employees. These workers are hired and laid off during the course of the business cycle just as employees in the United States are. These “irregular workers” make up about 10 percent of the non-agricultural work force. Additionally, Japanese firms keep some flexibility through the large-scale use of subcontractors（转承包者）. This practice is much more common in Japan than in the United States.

The use of both subcontractors and temporary workers has increased remarkably in Japan since the 1974-1975 recessions. All this leads some people to argue that the

Japanese system is not all that different from the American system. During recessions Japanese corporations lay off temporary workers and give less business to subcontractors. In the United States, corporations lay off those workers with the least seniority(资历). The difference then is probably less than the term “lifetime employment” suggests, but there still is a difference. And this difference cannot be understood without looking at the values of Japanese society. The relationship between employer and employee cannot be explained in purely contractual(合同的) terms. Firms hold on to the employees and employees stay with one firm. There are also practical reasons for not jumping from job to job. Most retirement benefits come from the employer. Changing jobs means losing these benefits. Also, teamwork is an essential part of Japanese production. Moving to a new firm means adapting to a different team and at least temporarily, possessing lower productivity and lower pay.

32. It is stated in the second paragraph that ____. A. defenders themselves do not appreciate the system

B. about 90% of “irregular workers” are employed in agriculture C. the business cycle occurs more often in Japan and in the U.S. D. not all employees can benefit from the policy

33. During recessions those who are to be fired first in the U.S. corporations are ____.

A. regular employees B. part-time workers

C. junior employees D. temporary workers

34. According to the passage, Japanese firms are remarkably different from American firms in that the former ____.

A. use subcontractors in larger amount

B. are less flexible in terms of lifetime employment C. hold on to the values of society

D. are more efficient in competition than the latter

35. Which of the following does NOT account for the fact that a Japanese worker is unwilling to change his job? A. He will probably be low-paid.

B. He will not be able to possess some job benefits. C. He has got used to the teamwork.

D. He will be looked down upon by his prospective employer. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Getting Along With Your Parents

When you were very little, you and your parents would hug or touch each other, play together, talk to each other and be together almost all the time. As you get older, you become less dependent on your parents and more dependent on yourself. 36 But communication between you and your parents is not any less important. Everywhere has rules. You have grown up with lots of rules around the house. 37 As you get older you may want to make some changes. Make a time to talk to your parents if you don’t already have a regular time.

When rules are broken there are always consequences. Part of growing up is learning that whatever you do has an effect on others as well as yourself. 38 Your mum may see that differently. Instead of complaining “How unfair it is”, do a bit of thinking what was the reason you were grounded? Did you learn anything from this? _39_They have other roles too. Parents deserve some “time-out” too! So, be respectful to whoever is looking after you when your parents are out. Otherwise, it could be hard for them to find a babysitter next time.

Everyone has many roles to play in their lives. Whatever role you play in the outside world, you can be yourself at home. Learn to get along with each other, respect each other and care for each other. 40

A. These are the people who will be part of your life forever. B. Giving parent some time to have a rest.

C. You may think that being late home is okay because you were safely with a friend. D. You should learn to get along with our parents.

E. These rules are for the benefit of everyone living in the house, their safety and comfort.

F. That’s part of growing up.

G. Remember that your parents are not just your parents. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）
