When I called up my mother in the countryside on the phone, she told me snakes came to her home now and then, and 1. they seemed to have made their home there. I got the chance to distinguish 2. by inventing something 3. (mercy) to catch the snakes.

No products can help me catch snakes, so I set out 4. (research) the habits of snakes to trap them. I decided on three approaches: firstly, removing their habitat; secondly, 5. (attract) them into 6. trap, and thirdly cooling them. I used the 7. (freeze) bowl to make the snakes less active, 8. then collected them. The next day I released them into the wild.

I have filled 9. the form and filed my patent 10. (apply) with the Patent Office.

The TV science-fiction series Star Trek no longer looked far-fetched (牵强的) as four men and four women in black space-suits locked themselves into a giant hi-tech greenhouse, known as a ‘biosphere’, in the Arizona desert yesterday for a two-year study of the environment.

As dawn broke over the Santa Catalina mountains, the eight waved goodbye to television cameras. Edward Ross, their multibillionaire sponsor from a Texas oil family, closed the door of the $150 million structure, with its mini-ocean, marsh, desert, savanna, rain-forest and 3,800 plant and animal species designed to allow the team to recreate Earth and its ecosystems.

The so-called Biosphere 2 is the latest of a dozen environmental projects started by the self-titled ‘ecopreneur’. The project’s main aim is to set up a self-sustaining community for possible use in a spaceship or on another planet. The crew members must plant, harvest and process their food on a half-acre farm in the seven-storey glass and metal structure, while conducting a series of experiments.

‘We will be custodians (监护人) of our new little world,’ said Abigail Mayer, aged 31, a US marine biologist on the team, her voice choking with emotion. ‘It is a brave new step.’ Many scientists, however, are more than skeptical. They point out that the largest closed ecosystem which survived more than a few days was smaller than a football. It was developed at the University of Miami and contained only shrimp, algae and other micro-organisms.

Critics have also accused Mr. Ross of being more interested in producing a profitable theme park than in carrying out serious scientific research. Hundreds of tourists visited the site daily in the summer before it was occupied by the team. They paid $9.95 to enter and all stopped at the souvenir shop.

1.What’s the location of the project?

A. Texas.

B. University of Miami.

C. Arizona desert.

D. The space.

2.What can we infer from the passage?

A. There is a scene in Star Trek where four men and four women locked themselves into giant greenhouse.

B. All the species of plants and animals on the Earth were brought into the greenhouse.

C. Mr. Ross made tourists stop at the souvenir shop to gain profits.

D. Many scientists are doubtful whether this system can last long enough.

3.What’s the author’s attitude towards the project?

A. Critical.B. Neutral.C. Skeptical.D. Supportive.

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible — and it can be surprisingly 1. (benefit) to your physical and mental health.

When people think about valuable things, they usually think about money or jewelry. I am not very rich, and I have something very preciously in my room. It's not a computer or a smart phone. It's the view from my window. I'm lucky live near a park. My window faces with the tops of the trees in the park. Below the tree I can see children on the playground, young couples walked quietly, and mothers with children. There are also some old people sitting in the beach. The whole world was before their eyes. My classmates like to go online or listen to music, but when I have free time, I just sit on the chair and enjoying the most precious thing in my room: the view.

I was going to Paris, which I’d always wanted to see. But now I was frightened to travel alone. I arrived at the train station in Paris. I hadn’t spoken my college French for twenty years. On my first metro ride, I came across an incompetent（不胜任的） thief. I just stared at him, and he stopped his hand from my purse and disappeared into the crowd. Somewhere in this confusing city was my hotel hidden, but the directions suddenly weren’t easy to find. When I finally found the hotel, my heart was beating heavily, and I was sweating like a basketball player. I couldn’t stay. Could I? The wallpaper looked like it had been through a fire. The bathroom was downstairs, and the window looked out onto the brick wall of another building. Welcome to Paris. I sincerely wanted to die. I missed my friends. I was entering my third week away from home and my kids, and I had arrived in the most romantic city in the world, alone, lonely and frightened.

The most important thing I did in Paris happened at that moment. I knew that if I didn’t go out, right then, and find a place to have dinner, I would hide in this small room my entire time in Paris. I might never learn to enjoy the world as a single individual. So I went out. Evening in Paris was light and pleasant. I walked along a path, listening to birds sing, watching children float toy boats in a huge fountain. No one seemed to be in a hurry. Paris was beautiful. And I was here alone and suddenly not lonely. My sense of accomplishment overcoming my fear and weakness had left me feeling free. I wore out two pairs of shoes during my week’s stay in Paris. I did everything there was to do, and it was the greatest week of my European vacation. I returned home, becoming a believer in the power of traveling alone. Now when I meet difficulties I just say to myself, “If I can go to Paris, I can go anywhere.”

1.What happened on my first metro ride?

A. I came across a skillful thief.

B. I bravely caught a thief trying to steal.

C. The thief successfully stole my purse.

D. I scared away a thief trying to steal.

2.The room in the hotel where I lived ________.

A. had just gone through a big fire

B. was in very poor conditions

C. had a good sight through the window

D. was very small and untidy

3.The lifestyle of French people can be considered as ________.
