【题目】Box jellyfish (箱型水母)are the most poisonous marine animals known to man. They measure 3 meters long and weigh up to 2 kilograms. They are pale blue and transparent in color, and get their name from the cube--like shape of their body, Box jellyfish have 6 eyes on all 4 sides of their body, although it is uncertain how they process what they see as they do not have a central nervous system. They also have up to 15 tentacles (触须)growing from each corner of their body that have about 5,000 stinging(带刺的)cells each.

Box jellyfish can be found primarily in the coastal waters off Northern Australia as well as throughout the Indo--Pacific. They prefer to live at river mouths. They do not have any organs to breathe, and will sleep on the ocean floor from 3 pm to dawn. Unlike other jellyfish that merely move along with the current, box jellyfish have developed a way to travel wherever they want to go. They will shoot themselves in a jet-like fashion, reaching speeds of up to 7.4 kilometers per hour.

The diet of box jellyfish consists of thing like fish, small animals, and even other jellyfish. They use their venom, a chemical which causes heart, skin, and breath failure, to kill their prey(猎物). Since box jellyfish have eyes, some scientists believe that they actively hunt their prey while others insist that they are just passive opportunists that will wait and catch anything that wanders into their tentacles.

Box jellyfish are responsible for more human deaths in Australia than snakes, sharks, and salt-water crocodiles combined. It is best to avoid them as most stings(刺) will result in death. Hopefully, humans and box jellyfish can find a way to live with one another while keeping conflicts to a bare minimum. After all, such a unique species of jellyfish deserves to live and grow just as humans do.

1What do we NOT know about box jellyfish from the first paragraph?

A. Its size. B. Its hardness.

C. Its color. D. Its poisonousness

2What can be learned about box jellyfish from Paragraph 2?

A. They live in the deep sea in groups

B. They can breathe on the ocean floor.

C. They usually move along with the current.

D. They can decide the direction in which they move.

3 The underlined word “they” in Paragraph3 refers to ________.

A. box jellyfish

B. scientists

C. box jellyfish’s prey

D. box jellyfish’s tentacles

4 The text is mainly about _________.

A. a kind of sea animal

B. some poisonous animals

C. scientists’ research into box jellyfish

D. the relationship between humans and jellyfish

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Big trees are incredibly important ecologically. For a start, they provide food for countless other species and shelter for many animals. With their tall branches in the sun, they capture vast amounts of energy. This allows them to produce massive crops of fruit and flowers that sustain much of the animal life in the forest.

Only a small number of tree species have the genetic ability to grow really big. The biggest are native to North America, but big trees grow all over the globe, from the tropics to the forests of the high latitudes(纬度). To achieve giant size, a tree needs three things: the right place to establish its seeding, good growing conditions and lots of time with low adult death rate. Lose any of these, and you will lose your biggest trees.

In some parts of the world, populations of big trees are dwindling because their seedings cannot survive. In southern India, for instance, an aggressive non-native bush, Lantana camara, is invading the floor of many forests. Lantana grows so thickly that young trees often fail to take root. With no young trees to replace them, it is only a matter of time before most of the big trees disappear.

Without the right growing conditions, trees cannot get really big and there is some evidence to suggest tree growth could slow in a warmer world, particularly in environments that are already warm. Having worked for decades at La Selva Biological Station in Puerto Viejo de Sarapiqui, Costa Rica, David and Deborah Clark and colleagues have shown that tree growth there declines markedly in warmer years. “During the day, their growth shuts down when it gets too warm, and at night they consume more energy because their metabolic(新陈代谢的)rate increases,” explains David Clark. With less energy produced in warmer years and more being consumed just to survive, there is even less energy available for growth.

The Clarks’ theory, if correct, means tropical forests would shrink over time. The largest, oldest trees would progressively die off and tend not to be replaced. According to the Clarks, this might cause a destabilization of the climate; as older trees die, forests would release some of their stored carbon into the atmosphere, causing a cycle of further warming, forest shrinkage and carbon emissions.

Besides, big trees face threats from elsewhere.

【1】 All the following factors are a must for making big trees EXCEPT_________.

A. genetic contribution

B. no deadly damage

C. ideal environment for growth

D. right place to establish its seeding

【2】The word “dwindling”(paragraph3) is closest in meaning to “_______”.

A. exploding B. decreasing

C. changing D. growing

【3】 What is the best title of the passage?

A. Results of big trees’ disappearing.

B. Advantage of big trees.

C. Big trees in trouble

D. Importance of big trees to humans.

【4】What will the author most probably discuss after the last paragraph?

A. Comparison between common trees and big ones.

B. The effect of human activities on big trees.

C. Benefits of big trees to the whole atmosphere.

D. More threats to the existence of big trees.

【题目】Specialists say that it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to (适应) their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.

There are some obvious factors in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systemsthe telephone, post office, or transportationmay be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.

Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new self-image.

Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation. This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick(想家), people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experiencethese are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.

【1】According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the following except _____.

A. language communication

B. weather conditions and customs

C. public service systems

D. homesickness

【2】According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, __________.

A, the fewer difficulties you may have abroad

B. the more difficulties you may have abroad

C. the more money you will earn abroad

D. the less homesick you will feel abroad

【3】The underlined word in the last paragraph mostly probably means ________.

A. being homesick B. being lost

C. protecting oneself D. gaining experience

【4】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. Escape unfamiliar environment

B. The feeling of homesickness.

C. Homesickness can solve the problem of culture shock.

D. The best way to overcome culture shock: get familiar with the new culture.
