Directions: Complet the following passage by filling in each blank with one word that best fits the context.

When very small dinosaur bones were found in a Germany mine people thought they were from baby dinosaurs.   48  , scientist Martin Sander's work shows that they were probably fully grown and belong to the smallest giant dinosaur species ever found.

       Growth marks on dinosaur bones are similar   49   growth rings on trees. The rings are far apart while the animal is young and growing quickly.  50  get closer as growth slows. "It is exactly these tight ring marks that we found in the fossil (化石) bones," says Sander. So the fossils must have been from adult animals. 

         51  was this German dinosaur so much smaller than other giant dinosaurs, which grew up to 45 metres long and weighed as much as a thousand humans?

       150 million years ago, most of Germany was underwater. Scientists think that  52  water levels rose, there was less and less land and food available. The dinosaur was forced to adapt and evolved into  53  smaller animal needing  54   space and food.

       Since 1998, scientists have dug up more than 1,000 dinosaur fossils in the mine. It is one of the few places in the world   55  the bones and footprints of dinosaurs have been found together.

Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea．People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.

    Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East Indian Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.

   At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea．Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added．She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few British drink tea without milk.

   At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening. No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess (公爵夫人) found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o’clock stopped her getting “a sinking feeling” as she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.

67．Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into Britain?

A. The British got expensive tea from India. 

B. Tea reached Britain from Holland.

C．The British were the first people in Europe who drank tea.

D．It was not until the 17th century that the British had tea.

D．Madame de Sevigne was such a lady with great social influence that people tried to copy the way she drank tea

70．We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinking tea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of　________.

第二部分  阅读理解（共25小题；第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分，满分45分）

第一节  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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AThe teenage girl who sat in Madeline Levine's office was bright and pretty. She came from a well-off family that loved her deeply. And she had used a razor(剃刀) to carve the word “Empty” into the skin of her left forearm. Outwardly, this girl seemed to have a happy life; underneath the surface, she was on the edge of disaster.

As a psychologist, Levine has noticed important changes in the type of problems that today’s teens have．She believes today’s parents are so busy working to make sure their children have the best of everything that,increasingly, we miss out on giving our children what they need the most: time, attention and unconditional love.

“All of us believe that we are somehow doing the best for our kids, and that this will help our kids lead the best life. But the things that help our children grow up to be normal and happy have very little to do with material goods,” Levine says.

A parent’s job is to ensure a kid works hard, believes Levine, but they need to be realistic about their child’s abilities, Most of us are actually rather ordinary. We should let children know everyone has strengths and weaknesses．

One teen told Levine his whole had been about preparing for college. Another was afraid to go home after getting cut from the school baskedball team-he felt terrible about letting his father down.

Kids who constantly feel they’ve disappointed their parents, and that they aren’t good enough, often end up depressed and suicidal(自杀). Children need to know they are loved unconditionally, even if they don’t make the football team or get A on every project. “At the end of the day, we all just want to go home, to a palce where we’re loved simply for who we are,” Levine says.

41．What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

  A．To tell readers a story about an unlucky girl.

  B．To ask readers not to judge a person by his appearance.

  C．To draw readers’attentionto teenagers’problems.

  D．To let readers know something about Levine’s job.

42．Levine believes that teen’s problems are caused by________．

  A．too much pressure from themselves

  B．unrealistic parental expectaions

  C．increasingly competitive environment

 D．too much care and love from parents

43. It can be learned that parents should keep in mind that________.

  A．children don’t need material things

B．they should put children’s interests above all

  C．children have the right to choose their life

D．children should be loved for who they are

44．Children should be taught to know that________.

  A．no one is perfect         B．they can succeed by working hard
