5.I had been called to examine a ten-year-old dog (61)named (name) Belker.I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer.I told the family I couldn't do anything.
Shane,a six-year-old in the family,seemed so calm,petting the old dog (62)for the last time.I wondered if he understood what was(63)going (go) on.Within a few minutes,Belker slipped peacefully away.
The little boy seemed to accept the fact without any difficulty(64)or confusion.We sat together for a while after(65)Belker's (Belker) death,wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal (66)lives (life) are shorter than human lives.
Shane,who had been listening quietly,said,"I know why."
We all turned to him.What came out of his mouth next surprised me (67)greatly (great).I'd never heard a(68)more (much) comforting explanation.It has changed the way I try and live.
"People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life-like loving everybody all the time and (69)being (be) nice,right?"The six-year-old continued,"Well,dogs already know(70)how to do that,so they don't have to stay as long."

分析 本文是一篇记叙文.一天我被叫去给一条十岁的狗作检查,我发现狗得了癌症,快要死了.一个六岁的小男孩显得很平静.就在我们感叹狗的生命如此短暂时,小男孩的说话了.他说人类从出身开始就要学习如何去爱别人,如何去做一个好人,但狗已经知道了怎么做到这一切,所以它不需要活那么久.

解答 61.named    62.for   63.going        64.or   65.Belker's    
66.lives   67.greatly    68.more   69.being   70.how
61.named 考查过去分词用法.name与dog之间构成动宾关系,要用表示被动的过去分词作后置定语,即叫Belker的狗.
62.for 考查介词用法.for the last time是固定搭配,意为"最后一次".
63.going 考查时态用法.谓语动词go在助动词后,且句意表达是主动的,要用现在分词和助动词一起构成过去进行时态.
64.or 考查连词用法.without表示否定,要用or来连接并列结构.
65.Belker's 考查名词所有格用法.Belker与名词death之间,表示所属关系,要用名词所有格形式.
66.lives 考查主谓一致用法.life作宾语从句的主语,谓语动词用了复数are,说明主语也应是复数.
67.greatly 考查副词用法.修饰谓语动词surprised要用副词,great的副词形式是greatly.
68.more 考查固定句型用法.never表示否定,否定词+比较级表示最高级的含义.
69.being 考查动名词用法.be和loving一起构成介词like的并列宾语,要用动名词形式.
70.how 考查"疑问词+不定式短语"作宾语用法.句中动词不定式作know的宾语,句意表达的是方式,要用how和不定式一起构成不定式短语作宾语.

16.The younger generation(一代人),according to a new survey,can hardly remember the last time of climbing trees or flying kites,as they are kept indoors and short of outdoor experiences.
The survey of 1,000people found that the current(现在的)generation of 15-to 34-year-olds have fewer memories(记忆)of 12key countryside activities such as swimming in rivers or going fishing.
The research found that three quarters of the older generation remembered playing games or climbing trees,compared with two thirds of younger adults.
The 55+ generation also had more memories of collecting stones,visiting a farm or pond dipping.Altogether,two thirds of older people had more memories of playing outdoors compared to just over half of the younger generation.
The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) carried out the study at the start of the school term to stress the growing worry that children are not getting out-doors enough.
The study has found that 82per cent of people think that schools should provide more outdoor education and most believe nature is still important to children today.
Dr.Mike Clarke,head of the RSPB,said children who are usually kept indoors are easier to get"nature deficit disorder".He said public money should be used to take children on day trips to nature and to build wildlife gardens,especially in poor areas.
"To many people,it would seem clear and unquestionable that an important part of childhood is exploring the world around you.Unfortunately,this is far from the fact and the children are having less time and fewer chances to get close to nature,"he said.
"The RSPB has more than a 40-year history in getting children outdoors and is still continuing to play our role.We now need the government and the schools to realize that they should play the most important role in making it possible for all the children to experience,enjoy and benefit(受益)from the outdoor environment."

20.It's a simple and powerful idea.When (41)asked (ask) the key to recognizing opportunity to win success,Cuban,a billionaire,considers doing one's homework as the (42)most important (important) factor."The hard part is doing the homework to know (43)whether the idea could work in an industry or not,"he says.He admits that he does not have original ideas.He combines existing ideas in unique ways that no one else is doing,(44)which he manages to know because he has thoroughly studied his industry.
He says that the characteristics of an entrepreneur (企业家) are (45)willingness  (willing) to learn,focus,and ability to absorb information.
When Cuban set the goal to retire at 35,he studied(46)what he could find about business and the industries that (47)interested (interest) him.He actually considered any job as(48)a paid opportunity to learn more about a business.
He advises young entrepreneurs (49)to learn (learn) as much about their businesses as possible and never to take shortcuts.Over and over again,he emphasizes homework,superior knowledge,the drive to learn,and the need to get to work.
Anyone could adopt his ideas and do well in anything.Regardless(50)of your dream,do your homework.It's simple and insures success.
10.A few months ago the potato was considered an enemy in the obesity battle but a new study shows the food isn't that bad after all.
In June,researchers from Harvard University found that eating some of the potato[]every day,whether mashed(被磨碎),deep fried or baked,caused more weight gain than an extra can of drink or red or some kind of meat.The conclusion was that it happened because potatoes were always cooked-----making it easier for the body to change the starch(淀粉) which would increase the blood sugar levels.The body then had to work extra hard to get levels down but falling blood sugar made people hungry,which led to eating more food.
But a University of Otago study showed today brought some good news for spud lovers.It found it was hard to tell the glycemic index(GI)(血糖指数) level of mixed meals for persons."In general,different foods are tested for GI and it is less usual to test the GI for a whole meal,"one of the study's authors,Hayley Dodd,said."However,in this study,the GIs of three meals were tested.The meals all contained chicken,peas,carrots and mutton together with a lot of food including potato,white rice or spaghetti."
It found the GI for each meal lower than thought; researchers had expected the potato meal would have a GI of 65,but it came in at 53,which was low."Although potato is high-GI food into their meals-----our work suggests that having a small amount of potato with a meal isn't going to drive your blood sugar high.
The study involved 30healthy people aged 18-50.The research has been published in the October issue of the American.
8.The underlined word"spud"in the third paragraph may meanD.

C.he glycemic index in the potatoes is very low
D.potatoes are the main enemy in the obesity battle.

The internal greenhouse effect of a daffodil(水仙花)shui10
Early pollinators (授粉昆虫) struggle with cold weather,so it's no wonder that late-winter flowers such as daffodil tend to have extended blooming times and long-lasting flowers,some of which remain open for more than two weeks.When the sun is out,they can offer a warm microenvironment for bees.
Although they usually start showing off in the Washington area by late February,blooming times for daffodil are highly variable,depending on variety,weather and planting location.Moisture,tree cover and mineral availability all affect flowering time,but soil temperature tends to have the greatest influence on early-blooming flowers.The microclimate of a south-facing slope will display blooms well before flowers appear in the shadow of a building that gets only a half-day of sun.
Once open,the flower can create a microclimate within itself.When sunlight hits a daffodilflower,its tube-shaped corolla acts as a tiny greenhouse,raising temperatures inside a flower as much as 15degrees higher than the surrounding air.
That's good news for small bees,which in late winter have trouble getting warm enough to fly.
Bumblebees and honeybees prepare to fly on cold days by exercising their flight muscles to generate heat.But mining bees,which nest in the ground,are less able to do that and are more dependent on surrounding temperatures to warm them up for takeoff.
Spanish ecologist Carlos M.Herrera studied the relationship between mining bees and native daffodil flowers.The bees he studied could fly only if their internal body temperatures approached 72degrees,yet they were able to forage(觅食) in 54-degree weather.Basking(取暖) in sunlight on the outside of a warm daffodil bloom was enough to get a bee airborne.Heat from flight muscles could then help keep bees in the air,but they still relied on blossom-basking to supplement their heat needs.Although a bee inside a flower has access to warmth and food,a bee basking atop a flower can more effectively raise its temperature by absorbing heat both from direct sunlight and from the flower below.
On those cooler days,bees spent most of their foraging time basking,but"flights between flowers were sometimes interrupted by sudden falls to the ground,"Herrera wrote in his 1995paper."Fallen bees crawled into some nearby flower and basked before resuming normal foraging."

81.According to the passage,what can help early pollinators to survive cold weather?Late-winter flowers'extended blooming times./Late-winter flowers'remaining open for long.
82.Flowers on a south-facing slope usually open earlier because ofhigh/soil/temperature.
83.What does the"good news for small bees"in paragraph 4refer to?The flower can create amicro climate within itselfonce open./The temperatures inside flowers can be much higher than the surrounding air.
84.A bee can raise its temperature better at the top of a flower because both(direct)sun light and the flower below are its sources of warmth.
2.Would you ever hug a stranger?There's actually a social activity of offering hugs to strangers in public places.It's known as the Free Hugs Campaign.The hugs are meant to be random(随机的) acts of kindness-selfless acts performed just to make others feel better.The person offering the hugs often makes a sign that reads"FREE HUGS",then holds it up in the street and waits for someone to ask for a hug.

The activity was started by Australian Juan Mann in 2004.Juan had been living in London for almost 10 years when he decided to return to Sydney after his girlfriend decided to leave him.On landing,he had nothing but his suitc ase.After about three months,an old friend invited him to a party.In an interview with WHO magazine,Juan said that while he was at the party,"…a completely random person I didn't know came up to me and gave me a hug.I felt like a king!It was the greatest thing that ever happened."Then,he had an idea.
On 30th June 2004,Juan made a sign with the words FREE HUGS and offered his first hugs in the center of the main shopping district in Sydney."For the first 15 minutes,people just stared right through me.But then a woman tapped me on the shoulder and told me she needed a hug as one of her relatives had passed away,"said Juan.
Things really took off after a FREE HUGS video was uploaded to YouTube.While in Sydney,Juan met an American musician,Shimon Moore,who filmed Juan giving away free hugs and later used what he had shot to make a music video for the song All the Same by his band The Sick Puppies.The video was later uploaded to YouTube,where it has been viewed over 70 million times.
As a result of the video,the Free Hugs activity became international and then developed to China,Italy,America,Switzerland,Norway,India,Portugal and the UK.An International Free Hugs Day was set on the first Saturday following 30th June as this was the date of the first time that Juan ever offered free hugs in Sydney.
52.What is the purpose of the Free Hugs Campaign?To show kindness to others and make them feel better
53.What gave Juan Mann the idea of offering free hugs?A stranger's hug which cheered him up
54.How did Shimon Moore help Juan's activity become well-known?By filming Juan's activity to make a music video and uploading it to YouTube.
