根据以下材料, 回答下面试题
Several fishermen in Maine recently completed a study program at the country 's first ever"Cod( 金枪鱼)School."It trains fishermen who usually earn a living fishing in the ocean to be fish farmers.The program is aimed at helping commercial fishers to find a new way to carry out their trade.
On a recent morning, a fishing boat left, but the men on the boat were not going fishing, they were going farming.They are going to move the cages and sorting codfish.About one and a half kilometers out to sea, the boat finds eight circular pens.A rubber tube encloses each one.The pens are covered with netting material to keep out seabirds.Inside each of the fifty-meter wide areas are up to fifty thousand cod. Most of these fish will be served on dinner tables around the world.
The program will teach the students how to feed the fish and not to over-feed the fish.It means that they should give them enough feed, and not waste any feed and make it as efficient as possible.
The fish-farmers in training take turns throwing special fish food into the pen.Air bubbles appear as thousands of cod come up to feed. They can be seen from the boat with an underwater camera.
Bill Thompson is one of the Cod School 's four students.He says the program has showed him that fish-farming is a wise choice. He said：" Even if the wild stocks came back to their fullest capacity they still wouldn’t feed the world. So this is the way of the future. And it 's possible for a family to run a business also.”

The United Nations declared 2011 to 2012 the Year of the Bat. The campaign was launched as a way to strengthen efforts for protecting the world 's only flying mammal. These creatures can be found in many parts of the world. Bats live in cities, deserts, grasslands and forests.There are over 1, 200 bat species.
The smallest bat in the world is from Southeast Asia.This kind of bat measures about 30 millimeters in length. The world 's largest bat, the Giant Golden-Crowned Flying Fox, has a wingspan of 1.5 meters.Most bats eat insects, but many feed on fruit or nectar from flowers.
Many people think bats are blind, but this is not true.Many species have very good sight.Most bats communicate and find their way by making"echolocation"( 回声定位法 ) noises.They produce high-frequency noises and can estimate the distance of an object by using the sound echoes that bounce back to them. So, while bats may travel in total darkness, they"see”using sound.
Sadly, bats are widely feared and misunderstood. Most bats come out of their shelters only at nightfall. Three bat species feed on blood. Because of these qualities, bats have long been linked in many cultures to death, darkness and blood-drinking.
Yet bats are important for agriculture and our environment. They help pollinate (授粉)plants and spread seeds. They also help control insects. Bats eat huge numbers of insects, including kinds that damage crops.
For example, a brown bat can eat more than 1, 000 insects in one hour.Onereport says bats save American farmers billions of dollars every year by reducing crop damage and limiting the need for chemicals that kill insects.
Over one-fifth of all bat species are under threat. They face disease and the human destruction of their natural environments.In some areas, diseases have killed nearly 100% of bat populations.

根据以下材料, 回答下面试题
Americans are more socially isolated than they were 20 years ago, separated by work, commuting and the single life, researchers reported.
Nearly a quarter of people surveyed said they had" zero"close friends with whom to discuss personal matters. More than 50 percent named two or fewer close friends, the researchers said.
"This is a big social change, and it indicates something that 's not good for our society, ”said Duke University Professor Lynn Smith-Lovin. Smith-Lovin’s group used data from a national survey of 1, 500 American adults that has been ongoing since 1972.
She said it indicated people had a surprising drop in the number of close friends since 1985.At that time, Americans most commonly said they had three close friends whom they had known for a long time, saw often, and with whom they shared a number of interests.They were almost as likely to name four or five friends, and the relationships often sprang from their neighborhoods or communities.
Ties to a close network of friends create a social safety net that is good for society.Research has also linked social support and civic participation to a longer life, Smith-Lovin said.
The data also show the social isolation trend mirrors other class divides: Non-whites and people with less education tend to have smaller social networks than white Americans and the highly educated.That means that in daily life, personal emergencies and national disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, those with the fewest resources also have the fewest personal friends to call for advice and assistance.
"It 's one thing to know someone and exchange e-mails with them. It’s another thing to say, 'Will you give me a ride out of town with all of my possessions and pets? And can I stay with you for a couple or three months?’"Smith-Lovin said.
"Worrying about social isolation is not a matter of remembering a warm past. Real things are strongly connected with that, "added Harvard University Public Policy Professor Robert Putnam.He suggested flexible work schedules would allow Americans to tend both personal and professional lives.
第26题 One reason for the social isolation of Americans is_____.
A.frequent relocation B.frequent traveling
C.living alone D.working flexible hours
第27题 The percentage of people with more than two close friendsis about_____.
A.25% B.50% C.60% D.75%
第28题 According to the passage, close social ties among peopleare_____.
A.a must for social progress B.beneficial for the family
C.a source of happiness D.good for people 's health
第29题 It is implied that__________ tend to live a more socially isolated life.
A.people in the higher social ladder
B.people in the lower social ladder
C.people with a longer life span
D.people with a shorter life span
第30题 According to Robert Putnam, __________
A.it is useless to worry about social isolation
B.social isolation is not necessarily bad for us
C.it is time to do something about social isolation
D.social isolation does not mean the end of society

四、Translation( 25 minutes, 15 points)
Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
第51题 Of course a certain amount of dependence on others is not only good, but necessary.Children must be dependent on their parents; and the weak must depend on the strong, and the sick on the well.And in a sense, all of us, even the most independent and self-reliant, are dependent on one another.At any rate, in civilized society, it is impossible for anyone to make all the thing she needs. No man can produce all the food and clothes he wants. He can only produce one or two things, and must get all the others by exchange or purchase from others, who are doing the same thing. So in a community everyone is dependent on the service of others, while he himself contributes to the needs of others.
五、 Writing(30 minutes, 15 points)
第52题 You are to write in no less than 120 words about the title"Do You Think Awards and Prizes can Serve a Useful Purpose? ” You should base your composition on
