They face storms and a lack of food, but Laura is happy as their local guide shows them the islands wealth of rare fruits and foods.11:00a.m WednesdayA team have come across an armed man who is holding two baby chimps who were trapped. One of them, David, is sent to a medical emergency in the forest. Later a center director, Nielsen, finds a suitable place to set free more rescued animals.7:50p.m ThursdayLost Building of BritainSimon Thurley visits the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, which ,before its destruction by Henry VIII, was famous for some of the most amazing stained glasses of its age. It also had a great deal of financial power, acting as the center of an influential business empire. 21Why worried Laura ?A. That life on the Cook Islands is too simple.B. That her husband faces difficulties in his business.C. That storms are approaching her hometown.D. That her children may not know how to treasure life.22Jim enjoys TV programs of taking care of animals. He probablywatches TV at _.A. 7:50 p.m ThursdayB. 11:00 p.m on Wednesday C. 11:00 a.m on Wednesday D. 12:25 a.m on Tuesday23We can infer from the text that _.A. David is a farmerB. Henry VIII set up a business empire in the AbbeyC. Nielsen is an animal-lover D. Glastonbury Abbey is famous today for its stained-glass BCan dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new secret of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly likely that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.However, it wasnt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals attacking, while a dog doing the same signals giving in.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “dog”，and dogs can learn how to talk “cat”Whats interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn to read each others body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than we previously thought. Once familiar with each others presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.The meaning of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond petsto people who dont get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.24.The underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to.A. early B. quickly C. sweetly D. violently25Some cats and dogs may fight when.A. they are cold to each otherB. they look away from each otherC. they are introduced at an early ageD. they misunderstand each others signals26It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs .A. have common interestsB. are less different than what we thoughtC. have a common body languageD. are less intelligent than what we expected27What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to live in harmony.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.CLand Art, sometimes referred to as Earth Art or Earthworks, is a form of art which involves using physical landscapes to create art, taking art out of the museum and into the outside world. Modern Land Art movement really got going in the 1960s, when American artists began creating Land Art on a large scale. Today, works of modern Land Art can be seen all over the world, sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.Land Art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms. For example, in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty (螺旋状防波堤), made of a collection of stones and mud, in the Great Salt Lake. The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art, which can be created by moving parts around. People can also add things to the environment to create Land Art, like salt, which is added to the Spiral Jetty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable.Land Art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay (衰落). Thats one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums. Some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days. Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.28What can be learned from the first paragraph?A. Land Art was the most popular art in the 1960s.B. Land Art aims to get people interested in nature.C. American artists were the first to create Land Art.D. People have been creating Land Art for thousands of years.29What do we know about Robert Smithson?A. He is a great creative artist.B. He lives near the Great Salt Lake.C. He made the most famous Land Art.D. He was a pioneer in creating Land Art.30One of the unique characteristics of Land Art lies in .A. it shows the extreme beauty of natureB. it develops and decays gradually over timeC. it combines the landscapes around completelyD. it offers the artists a chance to get close to nature31What is the passage mainly about?A. Works of Land Art.B. History of Land Art.C. Changes of Land Art.D. Introduction of Land Art.DMy daughter went to see The Wild One recently and she commented that Marlon Brando was wearing jeans so long ago. Of course he helped set the trend, so that got me thinking about the link between films and trends in fashion. Fashion and films have gone hand in hand for long. The Wild One is a good example: it appeared in 1954, starring Brando. Dressed in a black leather motorcycle jacket, leather cap and jeans, he created a look which is still considered “cool” today. Everyone from Madonna to middle-aged men is seen wearing the classic leather motorcycle jacket.Another strong influence on fashion trends was Breakfast at Tiffanys, starring Audrey Hepburn. She made famous the simple black dress that looks perfect at either a cocktail party or just standing around an expensive department store like Tiffanys with a pastry and coffee in your hand, as Audrey Hepburn does in the film. She looks so elegant, wearing simple but beautiful dresses, big dark glasses and a string of pearls around her neck. Audrey Hepburn still influences womens fashion with her “Tiffanys look”.In more modern times, the film star Uma Thurman created a major fashion trend when she appeared in the film Pulp Fiction, made in 1994. Her style was very simple. Her black trousers, crisp white shirt and hair style was copied by women in the world.Influencing fashion trends can often be about timing. The movie Memoirs of a Geisha came just in time to start a trend in Japanese fashion. It starred the Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi, who wore beautiful silk kimonos (和服), and it won an Oscar for Costume Design. Many travel companies picked up on the trend and ran “geisha trips” to Japan. The film has also led to a regained interest in kimonos. It is now quite common to see young Japanese women wearing kimonos not just on traditional occasions, but at various social events. The fashion is also beginning to spread to Western countries.32What is the best title of the passage?A. Films and fashion.B. Stars fashion.C. Influential films.D. Film cultures.33Who will people associate Madonna wearing the leather motorcycle jacket with?A. Zhang Ziyi.B. Audrey Hepburn.C. Uma Thurman.D. Marlon Brando.34What is implied in the film Breakfast at Tiffanys according to the passage?A. One can be active by wearing black.B. One can be elegant by dressing simply.C. One can be famous by looking perfect.D. One can be stylish by eating at Tiffanys.35What does the film Memoirs of a Geisha lead to?A. The popularity of the Chinese actress.B. The worldwide reading of Geisha stories.C. The recovery of interest in kimonos.D. The “geisha trips” to social events第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Chopsticks1.
