  Lakeland, Flo. April 29--Two cars fell to the bottom of a 30-foot sinkhole(灰岩坑)that appeared so suddenly that the drivers could not avoid it.

  No one was hurt, but the incident was the fifteenth of its kind reported in this area so far this year.

  At a town 13 miles from Lakeland, two bedrooms of one house dropped into a hole 60 feet across and 35 feet deep. Part of the next house was dangerous over the hole. The people in both houses had to be taken to safety.

  Sinkholes have been happening without warning in this part of Florida for years. So far there is no way to predict(预言)when or where one will appear. But when one does, others usually follow in the same area, usually along a straight line.

  The worst sinkhole appeared in 1965. It was 70 feet across and 150 feet deep. It destroyed one house and damaged several others.

  One hole, 15 feet deep, opened up this year in the middle of a highway 19 seconds after a car had driven by. Others in the same area happened at night, damaging houses, swallowing up trees and parts of streets and causing 23 frightened people to run away from their homes in nightclothes.

  Sinkholes happen when the weather is very dry. The earth at the surface begins to drop into holes underneath. This is how a sinkhole is formed.

(1)Sinkholes do not happen

[  ]

A. after a rainstorm

B. in a straight line

C. when it is very dry

D. at night

(2)When one sinkhole appears, others usually follow _______.

[  ]

A. everywhere

B. on straight highways only

C. in the neighborhood

D. immediately

(3)Sinkholes take place because _______.

[  ]

A. there are large holes under houses

B. Lakeland has an underground lake

C. wet earth sucks in heavy things such as cars and houses

D. dry earth changes position and fills underground holes

(4)The main idea of this passage is that _______.

[  ]

A. sinkholes have caused damage in the Lakeland area

B. sinkholes always happen

C. drivers can not avoid sinkholes

D. sinkholes are of very large size

  Lakeland, Fla. April 29 Two cars got out of sight, dropping to the bottom of a 30-foot sinkhole (灰岩坑) that appeared so suddenly that the drivers could not avoid it.

  No one was hurt, but the incident was the fifteenth of its kind reported in this area so far this year.

  At a town 13 miles from Lakeland, two bedrooms of one house dropped into a hole 60 feet across and 35 feet deep. Part of the next house was dangerously over the hole. The people in both houses had to be taken to safety.

阅读下面短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

  Name a female celebrity who is 5'2" and weighs 280 pounds.

  Give up? It's Koko, the world's best known living gorilla(大猩猩).

  Koko is impressive. But it's her brains, not physical strength, that have earned her fame. This ape is smart!

  Koko was born on July 4, 1971. As a baby at the San Francisco Zoo, she was introduced to Francine “Penny” Patterson, a graduate psychology student specializing in communication. Penny wanted to try to teach Koko sign language. The zoo gave her the green light.

  Under Penny's guidance, Koko eventually mastered over a thousand words in a certain form of American Sign Language. Surprisingly, Koko also demonstrated she could combine these signs to express thoughts and feelings. Both she and Penny soon became media favorites. But the experiment led to another unexpected result: Penny and Koko developed a deep emotional bond.

  No one was more amazed by this than Penny.“I was expecting an animal project and thought I could easily leave it after four years,” she admits. “But what I ended up with was a daughter. And you can't leave your daughter after four years.”

  In 1976 Penny and others founded The Gorilla Foundation. TGF's mission is to “bring interspecies(物种间) communication to the public, in order to save gorillas from dying out, and call on our children to create a better future for all the great apes”. Since then, TGF has fought hard to prevent the hunting of gorillas for meat.

  As the numbers of wild gorillas are few, Koko remains childless. She has rejected all suitors(求婚者) so far, focusing her love as a mother instead on her cat, Smoky.

  Will Koko finally find “Mr. Right”? Only time will tell. Until then, Smoky is likely to remain the world's only cat who thinks of a gorilla as “Mom”!

1.The fact about the gorilla is that ________.

[  ]

A.it is not big enough since it has a height of 5'2" and a weight of 280 pounds

B.it is the only living gorilla in the San Francisco Zoo

C.it is so clever that it can communicate with people through Sign Language

D.it has lost its nature so that it has refused all the suitors

2.The reason why Penny was able to succeed in teaching Koko was that ________.

[  ]

A.she loved animals and took Koko for her own daughter

B.the zoo gave her the permission to train Koko

C.she worked for many years in the zoo and knew Koko well enough

D.she was specialized in communication

3.The underlined words “emotional bond” may have the meaning of ________.

[  ]

A.mother-daughter love

B.trainer-learner care

C.human-animal friendship

D.gorilla-cat relationship

4.Which statement of the following is not mentioned in the passage?

[  ]

A.Penny did not expect it would be hard for her to part Koko after four years' experiment.

B.Penny set up TGF in order to protect gorillas from being killed.

C.Smoky has all the time looked on Koko as her mother.

D.Koko will find “Mr. Right” when she is set free into the wild.
