The delta also contains the Moremi Game Reserve (禁猎区)and it is one of the best places to see wildlife.Animals such as hippopotamuses，crocodiles，buffalo，rhinoceroses，elephants and antelopes can be very easily found in the region.There are over 500 species of birds in this area.The Chobe National Park The Chobe National Park is situated in Northwest Botswana.It is the third largest park in Botswana and is famous for its large wildlife population.The Chobe National Park has diverse animal habitats and it is wonderful to watch these beautiful animals right in front of you.The park is also very famous for its elephants and is considered to be the largest area for elephants in Africa.Apart from the huge elephant population，other wild animals such as lions，leopards，wild dogs，antelopes，hippopotamuses，buffalo and crocodiles can also be seen.The Kalahari Game Reserve The Central Kalahari Game Reserve is situated in the Kalahari Desert，covering an area of 52，800 km2.It is the second largest game reserve in the world.Large areas of trees，bushes and grass are widely spread in this reserve，thus adding to the beauty of the place.The reserve contains a huge concentration of wildlife.Many wild animals including giraffes can be spotted easily there.【语篇解读】本文介绍了Botswana三个值得一去的地方。1This passage is mainly about Athe writers traveling experience in BotswanaBsome places of top quality to enjoy in BotswanaCbeautiful countries to visit in Southern AfricaDactivities people can do in Southern AfricaB主旨大意题。根据第一段第二句话“There are many topquality places to enjoy your African trip.”可知。2What do we know about the Kalahari Game Reserve?AIt is larger than any other game reserve in the world.BIt is a beautiful place located in a desert.CIt is most famous for its giraffes.DIt lacks water all the year round.B推理判断题。根据文中The Kalahari Game Reserve部分第一句话中的“situated in the Kalahari Desert”及第三句中的“adding to the beauty of the place”可推知。3What do the three places mentioned in the passage have in common?AThey are all national parks of Botswana.BThey are all open to the public for free.CThey are all near the Okavango Delta.DThey are all full of wild animals.D推理判断题。根据文章对三个地方的描述可推知。B Not long ago，an airplane was flying over New Zealand.There was a television camera crew on board.Suddenly，out in the night sky，a bright sphere(球体)came into view.Everyone on board saw it and everyone thought，“UFO”Unidentified Flying Object.The camera crew went into action and started filming.That week people all over the world saw the film of the mysterious light on their television screens.What was it？Was it a spaceship full of visitors from another planet？The captain of the airplane and the film crew believed it was.Other observers had many different explanations.Some said it was Venus(金星)Others said it was just a trick(幻影)of light. An air traffic controller also saw it on his radar screen.He thought that a flock(一群)of birds were causing dots on his radar screen when the“UFO”appeared. Most astronomers now believe that what these people saw was almost certainly the planet Venus.At that time of year it was very bright and easy to be seen.And from a moving airplane it can appear to be moving fast.So far there is no proof that UFOs or spaceships from other planets do exist.These years investigators of UFOs have investigated thousands of sightings or occasions when people said they saw a UFO.Ninety percent of these turned out to have a simple explanation. However，it is a good idea to keep an open mind.Scientists in some countries are trying to persuade their governments to help them study UFOs.And they are planning to cooperate internationally on reporting and investigating sightings of UFOs.After all，it is quite possible that there is life out there in the universe.And if something is alive，it is quite possible that it will come to visit us.【语篇解读】一组电视摄影人员在空中看到了一个“UFO”，并对此物进行了拍摄，由此引发了大家对此物到底是什么的讨论。4From the first paragraph，we can know that Aa television camera crew and some astronomers were on board the airplane when the“UFO”appearedBthey saw the“UFO”in the daytimeCthe“UFO”is bright at nightDthere are different opinions about VenusC细节理解题。由第一段第三、四句“Suddenly，out in the night sky，a bright sphere(球体)came into view.Everyone on board saw it and everyone thought，UFOUnidentified Flying Object.”可知C项正确。5The captain and the camera crew believed that“UFO”was .Athe planet VenusBa visiting spaceship from another planetCjust a trick of lightDdots caused by a flock of birdsB细节理解题。由第一段中的“Was it a spaceship full of visitors from another planet？The captain of the airplane and the film crew believed it was.”可知B项正确。6Why do most astronomers now believe that what these people saw was almost certainly the planet Venus? ABecause they think at the time when it was seen，Venus should be very bright and easy to be seen.BBecause they saw it with their own eyes.CBecause they have proved UFOs or spaceships from Venus do exist.DBecause it was moving very fast when they saw it.A细节理解题。由第三段前两句“Most astronomers now believe that what these people saw was almost certainly the planet Venus.At that time of year it was very bright and easy to be seen.”可知A项正确。7What is the main idea of the passage?AThe UFOan Unidentified Flying Object was filmed by a television crew.BThe discussion about what on earth the UFO is.CScientists studying the UFO are trying to ask the governments to offer them help.DLife in the universe will come to visit our earth.B主旨大意题。全篇文章围绕UFO到底是什么进行讨论，专家们各抒己见。C These are some ideas that some people came up with about what the life will be like in the year 2500. We will have established a base on the moon. School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly.We will have found cures(疗法)for AIDS and cancer.The war will have ended and peace flows freely through the land.Kids will learn more and be smarter than ever before！History will be the main subject at school.Cafeteria(自助餐厅)food will be delicious！You just walk up to a machine，stick out your tongue，and it will scan your taste buds(味蕾)to see what you want to eat.KristenHere I am in the wonderful year of 2500 and life is so easy.I work in a pet store and it is so hard！I have to wake up at midnight every day and fly my car to the store.It takes so long to get there.It takes me 20 seconds to get to the store in Mississippi from my home in Florida！At work，I have to push 5 buttons and then I go home.It takes 2 seconds and that is like forever.Morgan In the year 2500，I think we will have invented cars that run on things we dont need like garbage.Tail gas will smell like whatever you like such as chocolate.I also predict that buildings will be able to go into a different dimension(维)so your car wont hit them.The cars in 2500 dont fly，for we havent got that technology yet，but they can hover(盘旋)up to seven feet.These cars are made for speed!Carly Instead of cars，we may have hovering devices that float around.We could also have electric cars instead of gaspowered cars.Food might be more healthy.What I believe is that the environment will change the most.The environmental changes will also determine many other changes.If more people try to help the environment，then perhaps in 2500 we will have more forests and wildlife.If people wont help the environment，then we will have no forests and little wildlife left.Roberta【语篇解读】2500年的生活会是什么样子呢？人们对此展开了丰富的想象。8According to Kristen，what will happen in 2500?AEnglish will be the main subject at school.BStudents can go to the moon every week.CCafeteria will replace other restaurants.DAIDS and cancer will disappear.B细节理解题。根据文章中克里斯滕所说的话“School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly.”可知B项为正确答案。9Morgan thinks his work in the pet store is .AdifficultBmeaninglessCimportant DeasyD推理判断题。文章中摩根对他工作的具体描述使用的是反语，他真实的意思是“这份工作太轻松了”。他的第一句话也是对该意思的提示，故选D项。10Who mainly tells the reader of the cars in 2500?AKristen.

At the moment，a lot of the antibiotics out there are working in the same way.”The early results are promising.Several compounds being tested in Norway and at Jaspars lab in Scotland are showing initial signs of antibacterial properties.A good start，with a long way to go，but Jaspars knows the hopeful legacy of the PharmaSea project and others like is around the world is to eradicate the issue of antibiotic resistance.Who knows where the next penicillin will be found？Perhaps，it will be in the icy Norwegian Arctic.【语篇解读】本文介绍了两位科学家为了寻找新的抗生素，不畏艰辛，去北极寻找的故事。12The first paragraph mainly serves as
