4.The African elephant,the largest land animal remaining on earth,is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统).Unlike other animals,the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment.As a big plant-eater,it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives,therefore setting the termsof existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.
It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat.In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day,it kills small trees and underbushes,and pulls branches off big trees.This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas.In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.
Take the rain forests for example.In their natural state,the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor.By pulling down trees and eating plants,elephants make open spaces,allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor.In such situations,the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.
What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species.If the elephant disappears,scientists say,many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna,greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.

2.My shoe lesson number one.
Back in my days as a salesman,I was on my way to deliver a speech in Newfoundland.Sitting comfortably in the airplane seat,I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat as I realized I had left my dress shoes at home.I was wearing running shoes for an important speech.
I knew I could buy a new pair when I land.Too late; the stores were already closed.What about in the morning?No,the next day was Sunday and my speech was scheduled for 9:00a.m.Ninety seconds later,however,my cold sweat has been replaced with a single idea.
The next morning,I began my speech,"You might be wondering why I am wearing running shoes today.Well,it's about this request here.When I'm done speaking,I'll be running door to door and I want every one of you to come running with me,too."My little"goof-up"became a clever demonstration(示范) of action speaking louder than words.
My shoe lesson number two.
My brother was getting married.We had just witnessed the signing of the papers at their house,and they were rushing over to another place for the ceremony.As we locked up their house,my wife's shoes broke.So off to the nearest shoe store we flew.We knew they would wait for us before starting the ceremony.What we did not know was how long they would wait.
That day,my wife performed a miracle(奇迹)that no other woman has done before or since.She went into the store and came out just five minutes later with the perfect pair of shoes.
Perhaps the most important lesson here is that,contrary to popular belief,the shoe does not make the man/woman.But the lack of shoes can surely build character.

12.Upon thinking of his shoes on the plane,the author feltC

13.What does the underlined part"goof-up"probably mean?B
A.Image          B.Mistake         C.Success         D.Present
14.Before entering the shoe store,the author thought itD
A.strange to be in a dilemma for a second time
B.a great pity to have to miss to his brother's wedding
C.important to test the quality of a new pair of shoes
D.unlikely for his wife to finish shopping in a short time
15.What's the message the author conveys in the text?A
A.Emergencies can help shape our character.
B.You can never judge a person by his looks.
C.It's hard to change our character overnight.
D.Never buy shoes without trying them on first.
19.Canyonlands National Park
Canyonlands National Park is a famous tourist attraction in Utah where visitors can see arches (拱门) and other beautiful rock formations.
Canyonlands National Park is a wild,lonely area of rocks,rivers and desert plants.Only Native Americans,cowboys,and explorers entered this area before the park was set up in 1964.Even today,it is difficult to walk or ride through the park.The roads are still made of dirt.Driving requires a special vehicle.The National Park Service says Canyonlands National Park is wild America.
Rivers created the area as they cut rocks into many different formations.At the center of the park are two deep canyons carved by the Green and Colorado Rivers.Three areas that surround these rivers are included in the park.
One of these areas is called the Maze District.This area includes rock art made by people who lived there more than 2,000years ago.Yet many people today cannot see the Maze District because it is so difficult to reach.The area is one of the loneliest and wildest areas in the United States.
Another area of the park is called the Needles.It includes long,thin,red and white rocks that reach high into the air like fingers on a hand.
A good way to see all the areas of Canyonlands National Park is to fly over it.A onehour trip in a small airplane makes it possible to see the park's red rocks,arches and flat areas where ancient Indian people once lived.
From high in the air,visitors can clearly see the third area of the park-a high broad flat rock known as the Island in the sky.The island was formed between the two rivers.
Another interesting formation is called the Upheaval Dome.This is a huge hole about four hundred and fifty meters deep and one point five kilometers wide.It is considered to be the most unusual geological (地质的) structure in the area.

33.Why is Canyonlands National Park referred to as wild America?B
A.No vehicle is available to go through the park.
B.The park today still remains as it was in the past.
C.There is no access for people to get close to it.
D.A variety of wild animals and plants grow in it.
34.What do we know about the Maze District?C
A.No one is allowed to explore the area.
B.It is known to the outside world.
C.Its rock art dates back over 2,000years.
D.It is the loneliest and wildest place in the US.
35.In order to have a good view of the park,you should go sightseeingA.
A.by air     
B.by land     
C.by water    
D.on foot.

"(53)D   are you?"he asked his daughter,"When a situation (54)A   you have a lot of problems that seem to be caused by bad luck knocks on your door,how do you (55)C   that?Are you a carrot,an egg,or a coffee bean?"
