A long red bridge stretches out across water.It runs across the Golden Gate.This is not the (41)G to some sacred land,but it is just as (42)A.The Golden Gate is where San Francisco Bay (43)C the Pacific Ocean,and at night the scene of the bridge (44)K up over the water takes your breath away.
Welcome to San Francisco,a place famous for its beautiful parks,hilly streets and lovely beaches.But the bridge is undoubtedly the most well-known symbol of the city.Before its completion in 1937,the bridge was considered impossible to build because of the foggy weather,powerful winds,and (45)E ocean currents in the city.However,despite the difficult conditions,the bridge was built in no more than four years.Its total length is nearly 2 kilometers.
San Francisco (46)J first on Lonely Planet's list of the best cities to visit in 2013.According to the world's largest travel publisher,it came top as a result of its (47)B mix.
According to the US 2010 census(人口普查),21percent of the city's population was made up of Chinese people.San Francisco's Chinatown is the largest outside of Asia and the oldest in North America.Two traditional festivals,the Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival,are the biggest events of the year on the city's (48)I.
If yellow cabs are a key part of New York city life,then the cable car is San Francisco's equivalent.The first cable car came into public service in 1873,and the slow and noisy vehicle has been a symbol of the city ever since.The cable car network was once(49)F by a serious earthquake but,luckily,it has now recovered and provides better(50)H than the subway.
10.Mass Migration
Mass Migration  Look up at the sky one autumn day and you might see a flock of birds in V-formation.(71)DAll summer,they have lived in the north where they made their nests,laid their eggs,hatched,and raised their young.Soon,snow and ice will cover all their northern breeding grounds,so they must migrate south where food is easier to find.It is necessary to create worldwide bird sanctuaries(保护区) before many of these species become extinct(灭绝).
(72)C  The Arctic tern travels 10,625miles from one polar region to the other.This may be the longest migration of any animal on Earth.Not all birds migrate.Some are able to adapt to winter by changing their diets.(73)A  For most species,however,it is easier to migrate to climates that are not as severe.
Somehow,migrating birds know exactly where they are going and how to get there.It is amazing to think about how birds are able to return to the same place year after year.(74)F Other scientists believe that migratory birds navigate by following certain coastlines,mountains,and rivers.However they do it,these amazing creatures always arrive in the right place at the right time.In the spring,they return to their nesting grounds up north to lay their eggs and care for their young.
It is important for the people of the world to protect the estuaries (河口)and wetlands.(75)B  With so many species of birds'habitats threatened worldwide,our children may never be able to enjoy the beauty of these migrating wonders.

A.These birds stay in the same place all year.
B.They are important to endangered species.
C.Some birds travel great distances,crossing entire continents and oceans.
D.They are flying south where there is warmth and food during the winter.
E.Birds fly around the world according to the weather year around year.
F.Some scientists think it is possible for birds to use the stars to find their way.
G.The birds that migrate south in winter return to different places when weather is warm.
20.The most widespread fallacy(谬论)of all is that colds are caused by cold.They are not.They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person.You catch a cold by coming into contact,directly or indirectly,with someone who already has one.If cold causes colds,it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever.But they do not.And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported people are free from colds until they come into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mails dropped from airplanes.
During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches(战壕),cold and wet,showed no increased tendency to catch colds.
In the Second World War prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp,naked and starving,were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.At the Common Cold Research Unit in England,volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time.After taking hot baths,they put on bathing suits,allowed themselves to be with cold water,and then stood about dripping wet in a drafty(通风良好的)room.Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion.Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.
If,then,cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds,why are they more frequent in the winter?Despite the most pains-taking research,no one has yet found the answer.One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times,and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.
41.The writer offered _______ examples to support his argument.B
A.4          B.5            C.6            D.7

43.Arctic explorers may catch colds when they areD
A.working in the isolated arctic regions
B.writing reports in terribly cold weather
C.free from work in the isolated arctic regions
D.coming into touch again with the outside world
44.Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research UnitA
A.suffered a lot                      
B.never caught colds
C.often caught colds                      
D.became very strong

4.The world,in painter Chen Xiao's eyes,is as colorful and sweet as ice cream.
At the opening of his latest exhibition,Colorful World in the Eyes of Sean Chen,at the National Museum of China recently,the artist told his story.
Chen left China for Australia in 1986 to seek artistic freedom,and like many new immigra nts(移民)then,he had little money in his pocket.To make ends meet,he drew portraits of people in the street.
Every day,he saw people buy ice cream from a shop.Chen couldn't help wondering:"It must taste great,that's why so many people buy it."But he didn't buy one for himself because he had to save money to support his studies.After four months of painting there and watching people eat ice cream,Chen didn't resist the temptation(诱惑)---he bought an ice cream."The first bite took me to heaven,"Chen recalls while laughing."You know,as a poor young man in a new country,an ice cream was too expensive then."Since then,he kept the taste of the ice cream in his heart and included the happy feelings in his paintings,which turn out to be colorful and sweet.
His current exhibition is part of his nationwide tour that began at the National Art Museum of China in Beijing in 2011.He plans to take his artworks to 24 cities around China by 2016.The exhibition at the National Art Museum of China will last until April 22.After the exhibition tour,he will sell his works through an auction(拍卖会),and all the money will be donated to protection of the environment in China."The natural environment of New Zealand has inspired my artwork and brought me enjoyment.I hope people in my home country can enjoy the same beautiful environment as I do,"says Chen,who has made New Zealand his home for the last 26 years.

5."If you want to see a thing well,reach out and touch it!"
That may seem a strange thing to say.But touching things can help you to see them better.
Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round.But by holding it in your hands,you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is.You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball,you really see it.With your skin,you can feel better.For example,your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket.You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand,too.You can even feel sounds against your skin.Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music?They must like to feel the sounds of music.
All children soon learn what"Don't touch!"means.They hear it often.Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up.In shops,we touch things we might buy:food,clothes.To see something well,we have to touch it.The bottoms of our feet can feel things,too.You know this when you walk on warm sand,cool grass or a hard floor.All feel different under your feet.
There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin.Feel the shoes on your feet,the clothes on your body,the air on your skin.At first,it is not easy to feel these things.You are too used to them!
Most museums are just for looking.But today some museums have some things to touch.Their signs say,"Do touch!"There you can feel everything on show.
If you want to see better,reach out and touch.Then you will really see!
