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 ahundreds of years ago，a roman army came north from england to make war on scotland. the scots，a brave people，loved their country very much. they fought hard to drive the enemy out of scotland，but there were too many romans. it looked as if the romans would win.one night，the leader of scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “we will rest here tonight，my men,” he said. “tomorrow we will fight one more battle. we must win or we will die.”they were all very tired，so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. there were four guards on duty，but they，too，were very tired，and one by one，also fell asleep.the romans were not asleep. quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. slowly they climbed up the hillside，taking care not to make a sound. closer and closer they came to the sleeping scots. they were almost at the top. a few minutes more，the war would be over. suddenly，one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). he cried out and his sudden cry woke the scots. in a moment，they were on their feet and ready for battle. the fighting was hard but it did not last long. the scots wiped out the romans and saved their country.the thistle is not a beautiful plant. it has sharp needles all over it. few people like it. but the people of scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.21. hundreds of years ago there was a war between _.a. roman army and north englandb. roman army and the scotsc. england and scotsd. a brave people and the scots22. “we must win or we will die.” what the leader of the scots said means _.a. they were sure to winb. they couldnt escape from deathc. they would win and then they would died. they must try hard to win, otherwise they would be killed23. the romans climbed up the hill quietly because _.a. they didnt want to wake the scotsb. they wanted to reach the topc. they wanted to catch the four guards firstd. they were afraid of the sharp needles of the thistle24. whats the main idea of the passage?a. the thistle is a beautiful plant b. the people of scotland like the thistlec. the romans are a brave peopled. the thistle helped the scots win the battle b “the first and best of victories is for a man to conquer(战胜)himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful, says plato. selfcontrol is at the root of all the advantages. let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral (道德上的) freedom.a single angry word has lost many a friend. when socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. if you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. many a person has dropped dead in great anger. fits of anger bring fits of disease. “whom the gods would destroy they first make mad. “keep cool, says george herbert,“for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.to be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “anger, says pythagoras,“brings with folly (愚蠢) and ends with regret. you must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.selfcontrol is mans last greatest victory.if a man lacks selfcontrol he seems to lack everything. without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no selfconfidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. if he lacks selfcontrol, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also.25. what does the reader learn from the first paragraph? a. the greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself. b. ones moral freedom is based on the control of himself. c. to control oneself is the most difficult in ones life. d. if a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful.26.what is the correct interpretation of “whom the gods would destroy they first make mad?a. if the gods want to kill you, they make you crazy first.b. if you always lose your temper, you will soon be finished.c. if you cannot control yourself, you will become crazy.d. if you are mad, you will be punished by the gods.27.if a man lacks selfcontrol, he lacks all of the following except .a. the very backbone and nerve of character b. the patience and power to control himselfc. strong feelingsd. selfconfidence28. the authors main purpose in writing this article is to .a. explain that selfcontrol is the key to successb. teach people how to control everything in order to make a great successc. distinguish all kinds of selfcontrol and suggest ways for keeping d. advise people not to lose temper so as to make and keep more friends cfor more than twenty years scientists have been searching for signs of life on other planets. most of these searches have been done over the radio. the hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to get in touch with us. scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships traveling through space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1, 000 stars, all within 100 light years of earth. in addition, they will scan the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time. scientists are looking for any signal they stands out from the background noise.of the 200 billion stars in the milky way galaxy, scientists find that five percent are like our sun. perhaps half of them have a planet like earth. such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution of life. based on the inhabitable（that can be lived in）planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.however, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. they say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.other scientists believe that our search hasnt been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our galaxy. although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our galaxy is about 20 billion years old. in that time, some scientists think it is likely that civilization much more advanced than ours have developed. perhaps these civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. if we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.29according to the passage, how many planets in our galaxy might be inhabitable?a. 5 billion b. 10 billion.c. 15 billion.d. 200 billion30the first paragraph in this passage is mainly about _ .a. how scientists are looking for signs of life on other planetsb. why scientists are looking for signs of life on other planetsc. where scientists are looking for signs of life on other planetsd. when scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets31the underlined word “monitor” in the passage means“ _ ”.a. findb. imitatec. check d. form32which of these statements is true based on the information in the passage?a. the earth is one of the oldest planets in our galaxy.b. most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets.c. scientists are trying different ways to find signs of life on other planets.d. scientists dont believe that there might be life on other planets.dtips for cycle tripscycling has many advantages as a form of travel, as it is the fastest way to travel by human power, and slow enough to allow the type of local involvement that is impossible with powered travelcycle travel is a cheap form of transportationdistanceon level terrain（地形）,without a headwind, a cyclist of average fitness on a touring bike can comfortably cover 60-120km a daydistances of up to 250km a day are possible, but anything much beyond 120km will require considerable physical tension and not allow many stops to enjoy the places you visitfor many,80-100km a day will be the most suitable distance to aim for, as it will give a sense of achievement and also leave plenty of time for meals and activitiesgeographythe gradient（坡度）of the trip will reduce your rangea basic rule is that for every 100 metres of altitude you climb, you should add an extra 15 minutes to your journey timein hilly or mountainous areas, the easiest routes for cycling are downstream along major rivers, as overall they will be downhilla long, roundabout route along a river will usually be easier than a short, direct route over a hill or mountain passhowever, it is worth bearing in mind that the most scenic routes often come from hilly terraineatfood choice depends largely on where you are, so see the respective sections for more information about foods. as you will be working hard, its important to get enough energy in your food. on long trips away from major towns-there may be little quality food available, so be prepared to live on candy bars, prepared meat products and the like if the need arises.sleepwhile you can take a tent with you, many hotels and especially campsites can accommodate cyclists. however, there are also some hotels that may be less used to accommodating cyclists.if you are exploring an unfamiliar world, asking about the accommodation spares you the search for a new place to stay after a long exhausting day of travel.33which distance does the author suggest to ordinary cyclists a day?a50km. b90km. c130km. d250km.34form the passage, we can learn that_.ahigh quality food is easy to get on long tripsbhotels seldom provide accommodation for cyclistsccycling over a mountain is challenging but worthydit takes cyclists 15 minutes to climb 100m of altitude35we can probably read this passage in_.aa geography book ba research reportca science fiction da travel magazine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。 do you know how to pick a good book youll
