从每小题所给的a.b.c.d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 aa lot of people are familiar with the story of brave gelert, a dog that faithfully defended the princes son, but it was then killed while it was fast asleep through a terrible misunderstanding. however, only a few people know that the story is really a pack of lies. let me explain.about a hundred or so years ago there was a hotel owner in wales who was fed up with business being so bad. his hotel was stuck in the middle of nowhere and hardly anyone came to stay. then, one day, he had an idea. a famous prince called llewellyn had lived in the area during the middle ages and had been keen on dogs. this is hardly surprising as hunting was extremely popular at that time. so what he did was to make up the story of the brave and faithful gelert and how he had been killed by his ungrateful master.of course, people would be far more likely to believe the story if there was something they could see. so one day, the hotel keeper went to the top of a high hill and built a sort of monument from the stones he found lying around. a friend of his, who was an accountant, helped him to construct it .the tale soon caught on and developed a life of its own. afterwards, people came from far and wide to see the spot where the dog was buried. needless to say, business became very good for the hotel owner.46. according to the tale, the dog was killed by _.a. a hotel ownerb. a famous accountantc. its masterd. the princes son47. the owner of the hotel successfully improved his business by _.a. making up a story b. constructing a hotel on the hillc. showing people around his hoteld. inviting a friend to help him48. the hotel owner built the stone monument in order to _.a. make more money b. remember the loyal dogc. show off d. honor the prince49. what could be the best title for this passage?a. a prince and his dogb. a profit - making lie c. a magnificent hotel d. a faithful but unlucky dog b you may be surprised to learn that one of the best steps you can take to protect your health is to step outside and spend some time in the grass, dirt and water.our ancestors enjoyed the healing power of nature, and now scientists are starting to catch up. according to research in recent years, just having a view of nature has been shown to improve hospital patients recovery and reduce illness rates among office workers. also, exposure to wildlife, horseback riding, hiking, camping and farms can be helpful for a variety of health conditions in adults and children.much of this type of research is focusing on children, and in fact an entire movement has quickly developed to connect kids with the healing power of nature.obesity (肥胖). rates of childhood obesity have grown sharply in recent years, and this is partly because of reduced outdoor activity time. increasing the time students spend learning about nature, both in and outside the classroom, would help solve this problem. such lessons are often more attractive for students and often lead them to become more active outside.attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) (注意力缺失症)exposure to ordinary natural settings in the course of common afterschool and weekend activities may be effective in reducing attention deficit symptoms in children. participation in green activitiessuch as nature walkshelped adhd patients from a wide range of backgrounds to stay focused and complete tasks.stress. access to nature, even houseplants, can help children cope with stress , depression and seasonal emotional disorder. major depression requires medical treatment, but physical activity, especially outdoors, can help ease symptoms. for your average case of winter blues, experts suggest spending time outside every day and, if possible, taking the family to a sunny vacation spot in midwinter.experts emphasize that you neednt go to wilderness preserves to enjoy natures benefitssimply walking in a city park or growing in a rooftop garden can make a difference.50what can we infer from the first two paragraphs? a. ancient people were not familiar with the healing power of nature. b. modern people are not familiar with the healing power of nature. c. the healing power of nature works better on children. d. the healing power of nature works better on office workers.51according to para.4, lessons about nature_. a. should involve parents in them b. should take place outdoors c. are used widely at schools d. are liked by students52exposure to green areas in neighborhoods can_. a. improve childrens skills at learning b. help reduce adhd symptoms c. treat major depression d. cure winter blues53what can be inferred from the last paragraph? a. you can only enjoy natures benefits in the wilderness. b. a common natural setting is beneficial to your health. c. a city park and a rooftop garden have different benefits. d. too many people in the wilderness will reduce the benefits of nature. cattractions in wisconsinwisconsin

is a scientist who studies fish. most people who do this job say they love their work because it is very rewarding and varied. they work not only inside a laboratory, but also out in the field. fieldwork includes traveling to rivers, oceans and lakes in order to collect information and specimens. reading, writing and speaking is also very important to the job. fish scientists need to read the research of other scientists. they must be able to write up their own research clearly so that others can follow it. they also need to be able to give lectures about their findings, so that they can spread knowledge.ichthyologists who wish to specialize can choose any one of three areas of study. the first area is aquaculture (水产养殖). this involves the study and practice of fish farming and management. because it is a rather new study, there are very few job opportunities available. however, as there is so much to discover, many see it as an exciting area for a new ichthyologist to enter. the second area is fisheries science, which means working with a team of scientists to find out more about different fish species.the third area is about the protection of natural fish populations. this is very important today, given that many fish species are in danger of dying out because of the actions of humans.to become a successful fish scientist, you need to have a curious mind and be able to work on your own. you also need to be able to handle equipment and perform experiments; but most importantly, you must love fish. to become an ichthyologist, you will need to train at a university to pass a bachelor of science degree. for this, you will need to be good at mathematics, physical science and biology. then, you will need to study for another year to complete an honours degree in ichthyology. this honours degree contains of course work about all aspects of fish. you also need to complete a research paper.58. which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?a. an ichthyologist has an interesting and varied profession.b. aquaculture is the study of fish protection.c. the life of an ichthyologist can involve lots of travel.d. a fish scientist needs to be independent and curious about things.59. who is most likely to become an ichthyologist?a. tom, because he likes fishing and outdoor sports.b. jack, because he likes to travel and read adventure books.c. jenny, because she likes science, mathematics and reading about dinosaurs.d.jane, because she likes mathematics, science, biology and searching rock-pools.60. the passage is probably written for _.a. university students b. science researchersc. fisheries experts d. fish farmers第二节 （共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容， 从下框的a-f选项中选出能概括出每段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。（说明：e涂ab；f涂ac）61.
