to get to the other side. most people know this joke. but recently, some people have been much more concerned with how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road. millions of animals die each year on us roads, the federal highway administration reports. in fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat exist in the us today. the main reason? road kill.“ecopassages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. they are paths both over and under roads. these ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid human conflicts, said jodi hilty of the wildlife conservation society.but do animals actually use the ecopassages? the answer is yes. paul beier of northern arizona university found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. this showed that the lion used the passage. builders of some ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. animals seem to be catching on. animals as different as salamanders and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.the next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around.you might see an animal overpass!51. the writer uses the example of ocelots to show that _.a. wild animals have become more dangerous b. the driving conditions have improved greatlyc. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to workd. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents52. from the news story, we know an ecopassage is _ .a. an underground path for cars b. a fence built for the safety of the areac. a bridge for animals to get over a river d. a pass for animals to cross the road53. when the writer says that animals seem to be catching on, he means _.a. animals begin to realize the dangers on the road b. animals begin to learn to use ecopassagesc. animals are crossing the road in groups d. animals are increasing in number54. the writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because .a. wild animals may attack cars b. wild animals may jam the roadc. they may see wild animals in the park d. they may see wild animals on ecopassages b each year on february 2nd, there is special festival called groundhog day (土拨鼠日 ) forecasting event in punxsutawney, pennsylvania. when it comes, people from around the world, including 5,000 in the small town today, watch this tongue-twisting(发饶舌的) small town for a sign from one groundhog that supposedly predicts when that years spring will arrive. if its a cloudy day outside when the groundhog pops from its cave, then spring will arrive early that year. however, if it is sunny outside, the groundhog will supposedly be scared by its own shadow, retreating underground for six more weeks of cold weather. of course, punxsutawney phils prediction is no more able to guarantee the extended forecast than your local weatherman. abc news reports that an analysis by the national climate data center found that phils predictions are more often wrong than right. , philis is also found to have made some unpleasant predictions. ever since 1887, he has predicted 99 extended winters and just 16 early springs .nine of the years predictions were unavailable, according to abc.the holiday began as a german tradition in 18th century and became even more of a cultural phenomenon after the 1993 film groundhog day starring bill murray. punxsutawney phil has become a celebrity in his own right. each year, the fatter animal with long teeth is watched by millions as he emerges from a cave in the town he is named after. phil has become so beloved by the town that he actually lives in the local library with his “wife phyllis. taking inspiration from the hard state of bill murrays character in the classic film, yahoo contributor owen rust says groundhog day is a good time to reflect on ones routines. 55. the underlined word “pops” means “ ”.a. escapesb. appearsc. increasesd. hides56. the reason why phils predictions arent pleasing is that_. a. phil likes to make unpleasant predictions b. phil wants to do that for fun c. some of the predictions were unavailable d. he has predicted more late springs57. how does punxsutawney phil become a celebration?a. by an accident. b. from peoples life improving.c. by his own attractive force d. from much money raised by the town.58. which is the best title for this passage?a. groundhog day weather forecasting b. a german traditionc. a tongue-twisting small town d. the national climate data center cdo you have any skiing equipment you no longer need? a ski school in the far north of india could put it to good use.in march we published a photo story about the extraordinary zsnskar region in northern india，which is cut off from the outside world for more than seven months of the year，and only accessible (可通行的)via a frozen riverwe also included information about the limited use of skiing in the region and the recent creation of the zanskar ski school:“despite the difficulties of travelling through the region when the snow comes，skiing hasnt traditionally been used as a means of transport by the locals，largely because trees dont grow here, so there is little in the way of raw materials from which to make skisin 1995, a group of british scientists in the region noticed the lack of skis and one of them returned to set up the zanskar ski school in padamthe school provides lessons for a small fee and rents skis to the local people. among the benefits that the school hopes to bring are improved educationchildren often find it difficult to get to school through the deep snowand the possibility of offering ski tours to tourists in the futureso far，more than 300 local people have received training，and local doctors and policemen regularly borrow skis.”but what we werent able to include in the article is that the ski school is always on the look out for old skiing equipmentparticularly of a size suitable for childrenand, i thought. now the european ski season is drawing to a close，there might be a few of you out there who have some old equipment youd like to see go to a good homeif thats the ease you can get in touch with the school via their website www.zanskarski .59. whats the purpose in writing the text?a. to ask people to give away their skis to the school b. to attract more tourists to the areac. to appeal to more locals to attend the school d. to raise money to develop this area60. the local people dont use skiing to go about because .a. it is against the local custom b. trees are in the way of the skiing routec. they dont have the wood to make skis d. it is dangerous to go skiing in this region61 the zanskar ski school .a. has donated money to the local community b. makes it easier for the students to attend schoolc. provides special training to the tourists d. has borrowed many skis from europe62. who would be the most helpful to the school now?a. locals in zanskar region b. students in the zanskar ski schoolc. people having old skiing equipment d. tavellers enjoying skiing63 what can be the best title for the text?a. an extraordinary region in india b. a popular sportskiingc. a good means of transport d. a home for old skis d while some scientists overlook the existence of a sixth sense for danger, a new research from washington university in st. louis has identified a brain area that clearly acts as an early warning system and helps us adjust our behavior to avoid dangerous situations. our brains are better at picking up not obvious warning signs than we previously thought, said joshua brown, phd, a research associate in psychology in the feb. 18 issue of the journal science. the findings offer exact scientific evidence for a new way to form a concept of the complex control processes taking place in and around the acc, a brain area located near the top of the frontal lobes(耳垂) and along the walls that divide the left and right hemispheres(大脑半球). in the past, we found activity in the acc when people had to make a difficult decision, or after they make a mistake, brown said. but now we find that this brain area can actually learn to recognize when you might make a mistake, even before a difficult decision has to be made. so the acc appears to act as an early warning system it learns to warn us in advance when our behavior might lead to a negative outcome, so that we can be more careful and avoid making a mistake. by providing a clearer picture of the cognitive mechanisms(认知结构) by which we self monitor and control our behavior
