题目内容

Lisa, a middle-aged woman, went to prepare lunch, leaving her 3-year-old son, Barney, playing by himself in the backyard.

All of a sudden, a sharp cry of Barney came into the mother's ears, and Lisa rushed into the backyard and found a big snake entwining（纠缠） the little child with its body and trying to swallow the boy. Lisa was terrified and quite angry. She made up her mind to save her son from the snake's mouth.

It was a fearless mother's love that made Lisa forget what she faced. She took up an old hatchet （斧头）from the ground and struck the snake with all her strength.

One...two... With the hatchet, Lisa hit the snake again and again, but she felt as if she were striking a mass of solid(坚固的) rubber. The little boy's voice and breath were getting weaker and weaker. Lisa's heart was broken and she nearly went mad.

Suddenly Lisa put aside the hatchet and threw herself on to the snake, opened her mouth and bit into its back, as if tearing a tough steak（牛排）. Lisa was really mad.

A small piece of flesh was bitten off. Lisa picked up the hatchet again and hit at the wound in the snake's back madly and savagely.

Stinking blood was spraying out of the snake's body. The snake was so badly wounded that it let go of Barney and moved back into the forest. It had never imagined that human beings had such terrible, sharp teeth. Halfway home, the snake died.

1.Why did Lisa fail in killing the snake at first?

A. Because she was afraid that what she did would hurt her son.

B. Because the hatchet was not sharp enough and the snake's skin was too hard.

C. Because the snake was even stronger than Lisa.

D. Because she was too astonished to do anything.

2.________, so she bit the snake.

A. Lisa was really driven mad

B. Lisa thought her teeth were much sharper than the hatchet

C. Lisa couldn't refuse the temptation of the snake's meat

D. Lisa had not got any other way to deal with the snake

3.From the story, we learned that it was a mother's love that made___________ .

A. Barney brave B. the snake frightened

C. Lisa mad and angry D. the woman fearless

4.What does “made up her mind” in the second paragraph probably mean?

With the development of people’s living condition, more and more people possess their own cars. Some of us think it is good to own a car. For instance, it’s convenient, fast and comfortable means of transportation. Moreover, it shows that people are becoming richer and the country is much more stronger. It also made relative businesses and industries develop faster.

However, others have different opinions, thinking that cars give up waste gasses and pollute the environment around. Too much cars will have some bad effects, such as more accidents and crowdedness. Besides, lack parking lots is another big problem.

As far as I’m concerned, we ought to think careful before buying cars. As if we have cars, we may use it less.

On May 23, 1989, Stefania Follini came out from a cave at Carlsbad, New Mexico. She hadn’t seen the sun for eighteen and a half weeks. Stefania was in a research program, and the scientists in the program were studying body rhythms. In this experiment Stefania had spent 130days in a cave, 30 feet in depth.

During her time in the cave, Stefania had been completely alone except for two white mice. Her living place had been very comfortable, but there had been nothing to tell her the time. She’d had no clocks or watches, no television or radio. There had been no natural light and the temperature had always been kept at 21℃.

The results were very interesting. Stefania had been in the cave for over four months, but she thought she had been there for only two. Her body clock had changed. She hadn’t kept to a 24-hour day, she had stayed awake for 20～25 hours and then had slept for 10 hours. She had eaten fewer meals and had lost 171bs in weight as a result! She had also become rather depressed.

How had she spent her time in the cave? As part of the experiment she’d done some physical and mental tests. She’d recorded her daily activities and the results of the tests on a computer. This computer had been specially programmed for the project. Whenever she was free, she’d played cards, read books and listened to music. She’d also learned French from tapes.

The experiment showed that our body clocks are affected by light and temperature. For example， the pattern of day and night makes us wake up and go to sleep. However, people are affected in different ways. Some people wake up naturally at 5:00 a.m., but others don’t start to wake up till 9:00 or 10:00 a.m. This affects the whole daily rhythm. As a result the early risers are at their best in the late morning. The late risers, on the other hand, are tired during the day and only come to life in the afternoon or evening!

1.Stefania stayed in the cave for a long time because ________.

A. she was asked to do research on mice

B. she wanted to experience loneliness

C. she was the subject of a study

D. she needed to record her life

2.What is a cause for the change of Stefania’s body clock?

A. Eating fewer meals. B. Having more hours of sheep.

C. Lacking physical exercise. D. Getting no natural light.

3.This passage mainly tells about ________.

A. an experiment and its result B. a woman living in the cave

C. a depressed woman D. a woman and two mice

17．Starting a fire with ice wasn't a joke．You can make it if you do it right and have the patience．How to start a fire with ice is important if you are caught in the wilderness （野外） during the winter months when there is snow and ice covering the ground and trees．
    The first thing you need do is to find a place on the side of a hill or near a tree that is dry and protected from the wind．Although a tree is easier to find，you run the risk of catching the tree on fire．Next，you will need to collect some small dry pieces of bark（树皮） or bushes for kindling （点火物） and place them together on your dry protected area，and then find a good supply of larger dry tree branches for your fuel（燃料） once you get the fire started．
    Now you have to find an ice sickle （镰刀） only about a foot long，and while the sun is still up，hold the ice sickle in the air where it catches the sun on the larger end and concentrate the sun light coming out of the smaller end toward your kindling．If you have a hard time getting your kindling to ignitebecause it's too large，you can always gather and use any dry grass or paper you can find to help get your fire going easier．While you are trying to light your kindling，remember to keep your fire material dry without any water．
    You don't worry about it．If you melt（融化） your ice sickle trying to start the fire，you can always just get another one．With practice and patience anyone can get the skills of fire from ice．

66．If you want to start a fire with ice，you needC．
A．a very large ice sickle            B．the best paper or kindling
C．a right way and patience           D．a good chance and luck

A．Make an ice sickle．B．Find the bark or bushes．
C．Collect some branches．D．Choose a proper place．
68．Why do you make a fire on the side of a hill or near a tree？B
A．Because you can keep warm there．
B．Because no wind puts out the fire there．
C．Because the sunshine is very strong there．
D．Because the dry tree is easy to be on fire．
69．What does the underlined word"ignite"in Paragraph 3mean？A
A．Cause to burn．B．Become less．
C．Get changed．D．Last very long．
70．What can we learn from this passage？B
A．We should be so careful as not to melt the ice sickle．

C．We don't have to worry to make the fire material wet by water．
D．We should let the bigger end of an ice sickle towards the kindling．

18．Step into an American preschool classroom today and you are likely to fall into a so-called print-rich environment，every surface colorfully decorated with instructional posters，classroom  rules，chedules，and  mottos，few of which a 4-year-old can understand in fact．
Besides the confusing things on classroom walls，teaching methods and curriculums have changed recently，by which more time is spent on what's called"seat work"一workbooks and worksheets-but less time devoted to music and art．School-readiness skills are essential for the youngest learners to move on to a subsequent stage．As a result，expectations that may arguably have been reasonable for 5-and 6-year-olds，such as bemg able to sit at a desk and using pencil and paper，are now directed at even younger children，who lack the motor skills and attention span to be successful．
However，parents of preschoolers tend to be on board with these changes，because they fear that the old-fashioned pleasures of unhurried learning have no place in today's highly competitive world．The stress is obvious：Pick the"wrong"preschool and your child might not go to college．She might not be employable．She might not even be allowed to start first grade!
As preschoolers are learning so much academic knowledge at earlier ages，they seem somehow less curious and less engaged．Some teachers say that more children today seem to lack the language skills．The real focus in the preschool years should not be just on vocabularv and reading，but on talking and listening．By talking with adults，and one another，they pick up information，learn how things work and solve puzzles that trouble them．For our littlest learners，what could be more important than that？

25．Which of the statements does the author probably agree with？B
A．Younger children can fully understand the instructional things in classrooms．
B．3-and 4-year-olds shouldn't be expected too much in school readiness skills．
C．More time should be spent on"seat work''instead of music and art．
D．Even 5-and 6-year-olds have good motor skills and attention span．
26．The underlined phrase"be on board with"in the third paragraph most probably means"A"．
A．accept
B．reject
C．doubt
D．worry
27．Why are parents so picky when choosing a preschool for their kids？B
A．Because some preschools are too old fashioned．
B．Because a wrong preschool might ruin kids'future．
C．Because the competitions between kindergartens are fierce．
D．Because it is easy for them to choose a right preschool．
28．What's the best title of the passage？D
A．New Preschool Breaking down the Kids．
B．The Early Bird Gets the Worm．
C．Preschool，the Gatekeeper to Elementary School？
D．Seat work，a Better Choice for the Youngest Kids？
