9．My"perfect holiday"
Henry was a bus driver in a big city and he worked very hard．（56）E．He usually went to the seaside，but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper．"Enjoy country life．Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm．Good food．Fresh air．Horse riding．Walking． Camping．Cheap and interesting．"
"（57）A，"he thought．"I'll spend a month at West Hill Farm．I think I can enjoy horse riding，walking and camping．They'll make a change from sitting by the seaside and water sports．"
（56）B．In the letter he said that he would like to spend all of July there．Then on the first of July，he left for West Hill Farm．
But four days later，he returned home．
"What was wrong with West Hill Farm？"his best friend，Ed，asked him．"Didn't you enjoy country life？"
"Country life was very good，"Henry said．"（56）D．"
"Oh．What problem？"
"Well，"he said．"The first day I was there a sheep died，and we had roast（烤） mutton（羊肉） for dinner．"
"What's wrong with that？"Ed asked．"Fresh meat is the best．"
"It's good，but on the second day a cow died，and we had roast beef for dinner．"
"Lucky you!"
"You don't understand，"Henry said．"（60）C，and we had roast pork for dinner．"
"A different kind of meat every day，"Ed said loudly．"And you are complaining!"
"Let me finish，"Henry said．"On the fourth day the farmer died，and I didn't dare（敢） to stay for dinner!"
A．This sounds a good idea
B．But there was a problem
C．On the third day a pig died
D．He wrote a letter to the farmer
E．In his holiday he enjoyed travelling

分析 假日里，Henry喜欢到海边去旅游．有一次，他想去西山农场享受一下田园风光，并计划在那儿度过一个月的时间．可是令人惊奇的是，才去四天之后他就回来了．当朋友问起其中的缘由时，亨利说道："第一天，农场里死了一只羊，晚餐时美美地吃了一顿烤羊肉；第二天农场死了一头牛，又吃了一顿烧牛肉；第三天农场死了一头猪，结果又吃了一顿烤猪肉．可是，到了第四天，农场主死了，我不敢再留下来吃饭了．"

解答 56．E．推理判断题．根据本空格后面的一句He usually went to the seaside，可推断前面所讲的应该是关于他喜欢出游的事实，故选E．
57．A．推理判断题．根据but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper．"Enjoy country life．Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm．Good food．Fresh air．Horse riding．Walking． Camping．Cheap and interesting．可知这句所讲的是报纸中一则广告的内容，主要是讲述一则关于在West Hill Farm这个地方度假的广告．因此，他看了之后应该是觉得这是一个好主意，故选A．
58．D．推理判断题．根据In the letter he said that he would like to spend all of July there中的in the letter，可马上锁定句中有letter一词的D选项为答案．故选D．
59．B．推理判断题．根据本空格后面的一句Oh．What problem，可马上锁定句中有problem一词的B选项为答案．故选B．
60．C．推理判断题．根据The first day I was there a sheep died，and we had roast（烤） mutton（羊肉） for dinner和but on the second day a cow died，and we had roast beef for dinner，可知前面已经讲述完了第一天河第二天的事情了，可知此此处应该要讲第三天的事情了，故选C．

2．Fish have ears．Really．They're quite small and have no opening to the outside world carrying sound through the body．For the past seven years，Simon Thorrold，a university professor，has been examining fish ears，small round ear bones called otoliths．
   As fish grow，so do their otoliths．Each day，their otoliths gain a ring of calcium carbonate （碳酸钙）．
By looking through a microscope （显微镜） and counting （数） these rings，Thorrold can determine the 
exact age of a young fish．As a fish gets older，its otoliths no longer get daily rings．Instead，they get yearly rings，which can also be counted，giving information about the fish's age，just like the growth rings of a tree．
    Ring counting is nothing new to fish scientists．But Thorrold has turned to a new direction．They'reexamining the chemical elements （元素） of each otolith ring．
    The daily ring gives us the time，but chemistry tells us about the environment in which the fish swam on 
any given day．These elements tell us about the chemistry of the water that the fish was in．It also says something about water temperature，which determines how much of these elements will gather within each otolith ring．
   Thorrold can tell，for example，if a fish spent time in the open ocean before entering the less salty water 
of coastal areas．He can basically tell where fish are spending their time at any given stage of history．
   In the case of the Atlantic croaker，a popular saltwater food fish，Thorrold and his assistant have successfully followed the travelling of young fish from mid-ocean to the coast，a journey of many hundreds of miles．
   This is important to managers in the fish industry，who know nearly nothing about the whereabouts （行踪） of the young fish for most food fish in the ocean．Eager to learn about his technology，fish scientists 
are now lending Thorrold their ears．

57．What can we learn about fish ears from the text？B
A．They are small soft rings．
B．They are not seen from the outside．
C．They are openings only on food fish．
D．They are not used to receive sound．
58．Why does the writer compare the fish to trees？D
A．Trees gain a growth ring each day．
B．Trees also have otoliths．
C．Their growth rings are very small．
D．They both have growth rings．
59．Why is it important to study the chemistry of otolith rings？C
A．The elements of the otoliths can tell the history of the sea．
B．Chemical contents （含量） of otoliths can tell how fast fish can swim．
C．We can know more about fish and their living environment．
D．Scientists can know exactly how old a fish is．
60．How would you understand"fish scientists are now lending their ears"？A
A．They are very interested in Thorrold's research findings．
B．They want to know where they can find fish．
C．They lend their fish for chemical studies．
D．They wonder if Thorrold can find growth rings from their ears．
