so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them，and fifteen others had broken windows or broken roofs. one person was killed，several were badly hurt and taken to hospital，and a number of other people received smaller hurt. altogether over two hundred people were homeless after the storm.a farmer，mr. tan，said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for over an hour.“i was eating with my wife and children，”he said，“when we heard a loud noise. a few minutes later our house fell down on top of us. we tried our best to climb out but then i saw that one of my children was missing. i went back inside and found him，safe but very frightened.”mrs. woo mei fong said that her husband had just left for work when she felt that her house was moving. she ran outside at once with her children.“there was no time to take anything，”she said，“a few minutes later，the roof came down.”soldiers helped to take people out of the flooded area and the welfare department （福利机构） brought them food，clothes and shelter.21. how many homes altogether were damaged in the storm？a. twenty-nine b. twenty-one c. thirty-six d. fourteen 22. where was mr. tan when the storm first began？a. he was inside the house. b. he was in bed.c. he was outside the house. d. he was on the roof.23. the underlined word “shelter” in this passage means _.a. something to eat b. somewhere to stay c. somewhere to study d. something to wear24. which of he following may be the best title for this passage？a. clever people b. a lucky woman c. good soldiers d. a terrible stormbform july to october every year, about a quarter of the worlds blue whales feed in the pacific ocean off the coast of california. but the whales now face a major threat in their favorite feeding area. lots of ships carrying cargo sail in the same area at the same time. all too often, a ship will hit a whale.according to a new study, this problem has become a serious threat to the whole population of the worlds blue whales. there are only about 10,000 of the creatures in the world.blue whales are the largest known animals ever to live on earth. but if hit by a container(集装箱) ship, a blue whale will likely die from its injuries.in 2007 alone, large ships killed five blue whales in the waters off san francisco and los angeles, california. the national oceanic and atmospheric administration (noaa) says that because there are so few whales already, losing three to five from the california whale population every year is a great loss.“the population of blue whales in this part of the pacific is about 2,500,” says sean hastings, a member of noaa. “so every whale counts toward this population moving off the endangered-species list.”now, one very simple program is already under way in the santa barbara channel, a waterway that separates mainland california from the nearby channel islands. the channel islands national marine sanctuary has asked large container ships passing through the area to slow down. sailing slower will allow the ships members more time to look at detection(探测) equipment and more important to change course before hitting a whale.several of the worlds largest shipping lines are set to take part in the new program. for every ship that passes through the santa barbara channel at or below the reduced speed of 12 knots(a measure of speed in water), the company that owns the ship will be paid $2,500.25the underlined part “this problem” in paragraph 2 refers to the fact that .awhales are hit by shipsbwhales lose their waycwhales travel too fardwhales cant find enough food26what can we learn about blue whales?athey like following container ships.bthey mainly live in the pacific ocean.cthey are in danger of disappearing.dthey were once large in number.27the purpose of the simple program

papercabbie conant, a musician living in italy, was looking to move on from playing the trombone(长号) for the royal opera of turin. she wrote a lot of letters, but only got one reply. it was from the munich philharmonic orchestra(慕尼黑爱乐乐团).the audition(试音) in june 1980 took place in a museum, since the orchestras cultural center was unavailable. there were over 30 players and each one played their piece behind a screen, meaning the selection committee(评选委员会) could only hear them play. conant played ferdinand davids konzertino for trombone, a standard piece for auditions. being a perfectionist, conant was angry with herself for missing a note in the piece, and was seen packing the trombone away soon after the audition in preparation to leave.but the selection committee knew immediately that conant was the best of all the people theyd heard that day. they asked the other players to leave, and someone went to find conant and told her the good news.however, events took an unexpected turn: the selection committee were waiting, sure they were going to be introduced to mr. conant, when in walked a woman! the whole idea of a woman-lead trombonist went against tradition.but conant passed the other two auditions. she joined the orchestra and played her first year successfully. but then she found out that she would be playing second trombone, basically because she was a woman.conant took the orchestra to court(法庭). though the orchestra said that abbie conant was not strong enough to play first trombone, she won. it took her years to prove herself in the eyes of the law, but she did it.the orchestra then refused to pay conant the same as men players, so she took them to court again. she knew she would win, and the result? she did.29abbie conant wrote those letters to .aleave

musicians.cthe players could choose their pieces freely.dthe selection team couldnt see the players.31conant chose to leave after the first round of auditions because .ashe was dissatisfied with her performancebshe played worse than the other playerscshe had no interest in the orchestradshe wanted to prepare for the rest of the auditions32why did conant take the orchestra to court twice?ashe didnt get paid.bthe orchestra refused to accept her.cshe was treated unfairly.dthe orchestra didnt believe in her ability.dbesides entertainment and beautiful lanterns, another important part of the lantern festival, or yuanxiao festival is eating small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour. we call these balls yuanxiao or tangyuan. obviously, they get the name from the festival itself. it is said that the custom of eating yuanxiao originated during the eastern jin dynasty in the fourth century, then became popular during the tang and song periods. the fillings inside the dumplings or yuanxiao are either sweet or salty. sweet fillings are made of sugar, walnuts, sesame(芝麻), osmanthus flowers(桂花), rose petals, sweetened tangerine(橘子) peel, bean paste, or jujube paste(枣泥). a single ingredient or any combination can be used as the filling. the salty is filled with minced meat(肉末儿), vegetables or a mixture.the way to make yuanxiao also varies between northern and southern china. the usual method followed in southern provinces is to shape the dough of rice flour into balls, make a hole, insert the filling, then close the hole and smooth out the dumpling by rolling it between your hands. in north china, sweet or nutmeat stuffing is the usual ingredient. the fillings are pressed into hardened cores, dipped lightly in water and rolled in a flat basket containing dry glutinous rice flour. a layer of the flour sticks to the filling, which is then again dipped in water and rolled a second time in the rice flour. and so it goes, like rolling a snowball, until the dumpling is the desired size. the custom of eating yuanxiao dumplings remains. this tradition encourages both old and new stores to promote their yuanxiao products. they all try their best to improve the taste and quality of the dumplings to attract more customers.33. which of the following is not true? a. the custom of eating yuanxiao dates back to the fourth century. b. sweet yuanxiao are usually made in southern china. c. sugar, rose petals and minced meat are all fillings of yuanxiao. d. people in northern china usually make yuanxiao by rolling like a snowball.34. which country does the lantern festival come from? a. jin dynastyb. south koreac. chinad. tang and song period35. choose the right order of making tanguan in southern provinces.
