But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: well buy another. But the insurance payout didnt even begin to cover the costs of buying a new carI worked out that, with the loan (贷款) wed need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as 600 a month. And thats when I had my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all? I live in London. We have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes walk away, and a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area, and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family. But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasnt shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their friends think about our family being “too poor to afford a car”? (I wasnt that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.) My friends, too, were astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital? (an ambulance) How would the children get to and from their many events? (buses and trains) People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure Id soon realize that a car was a necessity. Eight months on, I wonder whether well ever own a car again. The idea that you “have to” own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I liveand many other citizens do tooin a place that has never been better served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We worry about rising car costs, but wed be better off asking something much more basic: do I really need a car? Certainly the answer is no, and Im a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.25. The author decided to live a car-free life partly because _.A. most families chose to go car-free B. he was hurt in a terrible car accidentC. the cost of a new car was too much D. the traffic jam was unbearable for him27. What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends opinion?A. Argue against it. B. Take their advice. C. Think it over. D. Leave it alone.27. What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life?A. Life cannot go without a car. B. Life without a car is a little bit hard. C. His life gets improved without a car. D. A car-free life does not suit everyone. C The poaching（偷猎），or illegal killing，of rhinos(犀牛) in South Africa is growing worse each yearThe government recently reported that a record number of rhinos were poached in 2015，a year which had more rhino killings in South Africa than ever before The World Wildlife Fund，or WWF，says about 20, 000 rhinos live in South Africa That is more than 80 percent of the rhinos in the world Edna Molewa， South Africas Environment Minister，says, “During 2015，we are sad to say this，1, 215 rhinos were killedThis is a rise in the number of poached rhinos from 1,004 in 2014 and indeed very worrying.” The animals are hunted for their horns(角)Many people in Asia believe the horn has curing power， which drives poachers， at all costs， mad for more horns But there is no scientific evidence for this beliefThe horn is made of keratin(角蛋白)That is the same thing as human hair，fingernails and toenails MsMolewa said 386 suspected poachers were arrested last year，an increase from the year beforeBut rhino protection workers say poachers often go unpunished after arrest South Africas legal system is ineffective Ms Mo1ewa said more needs to be done and South Africa is taking strong measures to protect rhinosThe efforts include moving some of the animals to secret places in neighboring countries. “Now approximately 100 rhinos have been moved to neighboring states in the SADC region during 2015 and 200 more rhinos will be moved this year,” Molewa said Jo Shaw，the rhino program manager at the WWF，said， “Were talking about a loss of a hundred rhinos a month，or more than three a dayWe really need to see effective action not just at a national level but internationally” She says officials should find the criminal groups responsible for the poaching and punish them. Government officials are to meet in Botswana in March at the Inter-governmental Conference on Illegal Wildlife Trade 28According to paragraph 2, we know_. AHalf of rhinos live in South AfricaBLess than 1,000 rhinos were killed in 2014 CThe killing in 2014 was more than that in 2014 DThere are only 20,000 rhinos left in the world 29What is the main reason for people to hunt rhinos? ATo get more keratin BTo protect the farmland CTo use them for decoration DTo make money from horns30Jo Shaw thinks that_ Amany criminal groups are well organized Bnew laws are needed to punish the killers Crhino protection needs international cooperation Dconferences about protecting rhinos are to be held every year 31What can we infer from the text? ARhino protection has a long way to go BNo one would like to buy horns in the future CThe illegal killing of rhinos will soon disappear DRhinos living in South Africa will move to other countriesD It is reported that bags are getting bigger all the time, and that there are more bags per person on the street today than at any other time in history .If this is true, possible explanations could include the wide use of small electric and electronic gadgets(装置), a reading-material explosion, a popular interest toward tight or pocketless clothing, or cheap bag making labor overseas.But, much as nature finds ways-such as disease-to control overpopulation, city life has thrown up impediments(障碍) to bags to enter many public buildings, theatres, ballparks, and perhaps even underground railway stations, you must go through a search or go bagless. The city has countless bag rules. It is hard to keep them all straight, and youre never sure, when leaving home for the day, whether it might be a bad idea to bring one along.Last week, the New York Public Library got in the game. Students, researchers, writers, historians, and anyone else who has got used over the years to treating the vast Rose Main Reading Room as an office or a reading room came up against a new rule. You are no longer allowed to bring a bag larger than eleven inches by fourteen inches into the library. If you walk in with one, you must leave it at the coat check. You may keep its contents with you, however, and the library provides big clear plastic bags for them. You return them when you come back for your own bag.What the library is trying to prevent, in this case, is people taking things out, rather than bringing things in. A librarian said on the second day, It s a big change for people who used come and bring in half their flats. The people who use the library responsibly will continue to do so. The people who steal will continue to get away with it, if they really want to.32.What does the writer mainly talk about?A. The history of the bag rules. B. The importance of using libraries.C. Different bags used in our daily life. D. The use of bags and the rules against it.33.The bag rules in many public buildings require people to_A. leave the places bagless B. pay for bringing in bagsC. have their bags examined D. use big clear plastic bags34.What is the purpose of the new rule at the New York Public Library?A. to change people s way of reading. B .to help people better use the library.C. to prevent people stealing from the library.D. to stop people from bringing in dangerous things.35.How is the effect of the new rule according to the librarian?A. Excellent. B. Limited. C. Harmful. D. Unclear.第二部分 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。 Some kids love going off to camp in the summer, playing volleyball, swimming, and so on. But I know that some kids absolutely hate it because I was one myself. They hate the cold sea and getting sand in their clothes and they hate being picked last for the volleyball team.36Its especially for those kids who would rather spend time playing computer games than running around getting dirty. But you wont be playing computer games, this course allows you to design them. 37Two top game designers Mike Jones and Mel Wilson from the company Star Games are responsible for making favorites such as Mickey the Monkey and Rainforest Expedition. They will teach you the steps that go into creating a new game, and teach you how to use various computer programs and build some simple games yourself. 38You wont have to sleep in a tent either. Kids on the course will stay at a local hotel, where there is a gym, computers and a great canteen. No cooking on a campfire in the cold! 39Last year, the course was extremely popular but it was only five days. This year were having an additional three days. So thats over a week of gaming! To go on the course, you need to be between thirteen and seventeen years old.40We only have space for twenty-two people. Thats slightly fewer than last years twenty five, because we dont have as many teachers on the course this year. So hurry up and book your place!If youre still not sure whether to join or not, have a look at the website , thats and you can see what the students did on the course last year. You can book your place on the same site. A. One is never too old to learn. B. Dont worry about the living place. C. You will receive comfortable service. D. Thats why our course is so appealing. E.
