poible because of the rumor that iodized salt could help prevent radiation poisoning spreading from Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi power plant.Consumers also worried that the nuclear plumes might spread to China by air and sea, polluting food sources, including salt taken from the sea.The wave of panic buying spread quickly acro the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten fold in some cities.Even regions rich in salt production, like Jiangxi Province，faced sudden shortages.The government took measures to guarantee enough supply and to stabilize（稳定）the market.It also dismied the nuclear rumors, saying the nuclear fallout was unlikely to reach the country, and that salt did not help to prevent radiation poisoning.Local authorities have stepped in to stabilize the market, too.As well, state-owned salt companies have been urged to increase their supply.Facing expanding market demand, distribution centers have taken extra measures to ensure they are well-prepared.Wang Yun, the General Manager of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation, said, ”Our storage reserves can guarantee a two-month supply for the Beijing market.“ 36．People made panic purchases of salt for the reasons EXCEPT______________.A.salt might protect them from potential nuclear radiation.nuclear radiation might pollute food sources C.nuclear radiation might pollute salt taken from the sea D.there would be a shortage of salt on the market 【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据文章的2012年高考英语模拟试卷1
Once many years ago, I pulled a family out of a burning car somewhere in Wyoming.Last week I received a telephone call from a woman who could not stop crying as she told me that one of my stories had saved her son from committing suicide.In closing she called me a hero.That got me thinking about what a hero is.Was I a hero because I pulled a family from a burning car? If so, how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved someone’s life?
Today I looked up the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant.It read “a person who does something brave” and also “a person who is good and noble”.That statement impreed me more than the part about being brave.So I thought about something very important.And I remembered what happened to me years ago.After my marriage of twenty years ended, I was in such a condition.I was within hours trying to get up enough courage to end the pain and misery.When I returned home, someone had sent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend.That wonderful card probably saved my life.That person, without even knowing it, saved a life and became a hero.The many stories I kept writing in the following years saved the life of a teenage boy.In turn that makes the person who sent me the card a double hero.I suppose that is why I fight so hard to help the children now living in orphanages(孤儿院).Most children come out of these institutions with a very hard and bitter attitude against the world.The gifts we send them let them know that they have not been forgotten.Hopefully, most of them will never hurt anyone because of the kindne shown to them by those of us who cared.If it works, we will also become ”heroes“.40.The main idea of the paage is _______________.A.why the writer should be a hero C.whether the writer is a hero
.what a hero exactly is D.that everyone is a hero

The Lusitania was a luxury ocean ship that sailed the Cunard Line’s Liverpool.She was the largest ship at that time.With a total of seven decks，it was estimated that over 200,000 people gathered to witne her departure on her first voyage.The Lusitania set off on her last voyage in May 1915, from Pier 54 in New York with about 1,959 people on board.It was reported that foodstuffs, metal rods, and ingots were loaded on its cargo.She sailed approximately thirty miles from Cape Clear Island to the coast of Co.Cork, Ireland where she got stuck in fog, had to reduce speed, and croed the path of a German U-boat.Not realizing the ship was just a civil one, the U-boat fired on the Lusitania, striking her under the bridge, and as a result, there was a second much larger explosion which caused the ship to bend heavily to her starboard.The ship’s captain ordered all the people to abandon the ship.However, there were serious problems of launching the lifeboats: out of the total of 48, only six were succefully launched.The Lusitania sank in le than twenty minutes, eight miles off the Old Head of Kinsale.Similar to the Titanic, she sank with her back part almost fully perpendicular(垂直的)to the water.Of those on board, 761 were rescued, but 1,198 people died with her, including 100 children.The rescue operation was led by Vice Admiral Sir Charles Henry Cooke, the naval commander at Queenstown.It was a serious sea disaster that shouldn’t have taken place.After that, countries all over the world began to consider the safety of commercial ships.44.According to the paage, the Lusitania ________.A.was the largest ship in history.sank on her first voyage C.boarded more than two hundred thousand people D.was loaded with paengers as well as various goods 【解析】选D。细节理解题。由

2．参考词汇：天文爱好者 astrophile 谣言 rumor
超级月亮the super moon 【参考范文】 Dear Zhang bin, I’m glad to receive your letter.As for the super moon, I have got some information to share with you.In March，2011，some astrophiles observed the moon that was bigger than usual.And it was called the super moon.It was said that the super moon can bring disasters to man—Japan’s maive earthquake was an example.However, in reference to the rumor, experts said it had no factual basis.The moon is 380 thousand kilometers away from earth, and the super moon is just a little nearer than usual, compared with the average distance.As far as history is concerned, the super moon has nothing to do with disasters.In my opinion, it is the equipment that brings the moon closer to the earth than before.Rumors can never cover the truth.est wishes and good luck!
Yours,Li Han
