The farmers, living in a village very close to forests, used to trap wild animals like roe deer and hares when the dying tiger unfortunately caught in their trap in February 2003.Knowing that tiger trade was illegal, Zhang and Gong, however, thought eating a dead tigers meat was not breaking the law. They decided to cover it up and therefore did not report to the relevant authorities, the court said.Six days later they secrectly carried home the tiger that had died of hunger as they had expected.The two farmers burnt the tigers skin, ate its meat and hid away the bones, according to the court. The crime was uncovered and reported to the police about a year later and the transgressors（违反者）were arrested on Jan.16, 2004.64. When the two farmers found the tiger trapped, they _.A. wanted to kill it for its skinB. were pleased to have the chance to eat its meatC. hoped to sell it at good priceD. reported the case to some departments of the government65. After reading the passage, we know that _.A. roe deer are being well protectedB. the Siberian tigers do no harm to peopleC. China values the protection of endangered animalsD. farmers in Dongning County wont like endangered wild animal species any longer66. What is the best title for the passage?A. Tigers Are EndangeringB. Two Unlucky FarmersC. Tigers Are Well Protected in ChinaD. Two Farmers Jailed for Eating Tiger67. The right statement of the following about the tiger is _.A. It died of hunger.B. It was eaten by the farmers unintentionally.C. Before dying, it had eaten roe deer and hares.D. It was skinned and its bones and meat were sold.DChildren start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; theres no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your childrens curiosity. Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, “Now that weve finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen what a grassshopper（蚱蜢）eats? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, dont jump in with “Thats right” or “Very good.” These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick going by saying “Thats interesting” or “Id never thought of it that way before,” or coming up with more questions or ideas.Never push a child to “think”. It doesnt make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling him what to do. Whats more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target for your disagreement.Lastly, show, dont tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lessons children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass（放大镜）, and theyll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates（蒸发）, set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.68. According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is _.A. to let them see the world aroundB. to share the childrens curiosityC. to explain difficult phrases about scienceD. to supply the children with lab equipment69. Children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults _.A. ask them to answer quicklyB. wait for one or two seconds after a questionC. tell them to answer the next dayD. wait at least three seconds after a question70. The author mentioned all of the following techniques for adults to share with their childrens curiosity EXCEPT that adults should _.A. tell their children stories instead of reciting factsB. offer their children chances to see things for themselvesC. be patient enough when their children answer questionsD. encourage their children to ask questions of their own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。What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, and red?_71_ Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist（悲观者）. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colors preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. _72_If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly._73_A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day._74_ A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area -until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue._75_It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
