    percent, lives
  2. B.
    percent, live
  3. C.
    percents, live
  4. D.
    percents, lives
B
那个国家大约40%的人口都务农。percent没有复数形式,故排除C、D两项;“分数+名词”作主语,谓语动词应与后面的那个名词在数上保持一致,但本题中的population在本句中等于people,故谓语动词要用复数形式,因此B项正确。

I felt encouraged by his words and began to swim more calmly.But my clothes stuck to me like a heavy weight.I could hardly stay above the surface.
Counsel saw this.“Shall I cut them?”he asked.
With a knife he cut my clothes from top to bottom and took them of quickly while I swam for both of us.
Then I did the same for Counsel,and we continued to swim near each other.
But we were in serious trouble.The crew(船员)might not have noticed our disappearance.
And if they had,they could not return because the rudder(舵)had broken.Counsel thought of all this,and calmly made his plans.We decided to wait for the ship as long as possible,because we had no other hope of safety.I suggested that we save our strength so that both of us would not be tired out at the same time.This was how we did it:While one of us lay on his back,quite still,with arms crossed and legs stretched out(伸直),the other would swim and push him along.We changed every ten minutes or so.In this way we could swim for hours,perhaps till daylight.The crash(破裂声)of the ship and the whale(鲸)had appeared at about eleven o’clock.We had about eight hours to swim before daylight.This seemed possible,if the sea remained calm.

A.He and his companion got into the water to test their strength.
B.He jumped into the water to save the broken rudder.
C.He was knocked into the water by his enemy.

【小题2】Why did the two men cut their clothes?
A.Because no people helped them to take off their clothes.
B.Because they couldn’t take off their clothes on the sea.
C.Because they wanted to get rid of their clothes quickly.
D.Because they wanted to lifebuoys(救生圈)with their clothes.
【小题3】What does the word “still” in the last paragraph mean?
A.not movingB.evenC.yetD.however

Yesterday a girl named Marvies told me that   34  was once taken away by aliens(外星人) from outer space. They did some research on her. Marvies said that the whole experience was really terrible,   35  luckily they returned her home. If Justin has been taken away by aliens too, I hope they will   36  him soon.

My parents have been worrying about Justin. Soon after he was found missing, they called 37  . However, the police are not making   38  in the case (案子).
