early on saturday, ran past the couples bedroom and into the bathroom. somehow he managed to turn on the water in the bathtub and knock over a bottle of bubble bath into the bathtub. he then got himself into the bubbly water. “you could hear the water running over the kicking,” beck said. the becks called state game commission officials, who arrived with tranquilizers (镇静剂) and a lot of laughter. “a guy said, theres nothing wrong hes just in there taking a bubble bath,” mrs. beck said. the animal was soon brought under control, removed from the house and released. “he was unharmed except for a little cut above the eye,” said mrs. beck. “we were also fortunate. there wasnt much damage, except for the front door, some marks on the tub, and a few hoof (蹄) prints on the floor.”36.

the eyebabout 21,000 young people in 17 american states do not attend classes in school buildings. instead, they receive their elementary and high school education by working at home on computers. the center for education reform says the united states has 67 public “cyber-schools” and that is about twice as many as two years ago. the money for students to attend a cybersehool comes from the governments of the states where they live.some educators say cyber-schools receive money that should support traditional public schools. they also say it is difficult to know if students are learning well. other educators praise this new form of education for letting students work at their own speed. these people say cyber-schools help students who were unhappy or unsuccessful in traditional schools. they say learning at home by computer ends long bus rides for children who live far from school. whatever the judgment of cyberschools, they are getting more and more popular. for example, a new cyber-school called commonwealth connections academy will take in students this fall. it will serve children in the state of pennsylvania from ages five through thirteen. children get free equipment for their online education. this includes a computer, a printer, books and technical services. parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending emails through their computers when necessary. students at cyberschools usually do not know one another. but 56 such students finished studies at western pennsylvania cyber charter school recently met for the first time. they were guests of honor at their graduation. 40. what do we know from the text about students of a cyber-school?a. they have to take long bus rides to school. b. they study at home rather than in classrooms. c. they receive money from traditional public schools. d. they do well in traditional school programs. 41. what is a problem with cyber-schools?a. their equipment costs a lot of money. b. they get little support from the state government. c. it is hard to know students progress in learning. d. the students find it hard to make friends. 42. we can infer that the author of the text is _. a. unprejudiced in his description of cyber-schoolsb. excited about the future of cyber-schoolsc. doubtful about the quality of cyber-schoolsd. disappointed at the development of cyber-schoolscwe are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us dont do a very good job. this article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech. so, you have to give a speech and youre terrified. you get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble（犯错）over words, you talk too long and you bore your audience. later you think, “thank goodness, its over. im just no good at public speaking. i hope i never have to do that again.”cheer up! it doesnt have to be that bad. here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. ask yourself the purpose of your speech. what is the occasion? why are you speaking? then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. spend plenty of time doing your research. then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. use as many examples as possible and use pictures, charts and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. never forget your audience. dont talk over their heads and dont talk down to them. treat your audience with respect. they will appreciate your thoughtfulness. just remember: be prepared. know your subject, your audience and the occasion. be brief. say what you have to say and then stop. and be yourself. let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience. if you follow these simple steps, youll see that you dont have to be afraid of public speaking. in fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! youre not convinced yet. give it a try and see what happens. 43. we can conclude from paragraph 2 that many people _. a. talk too long in a speech b. are happy to give a speech c. do not prepare for a speech d. are afraid of giving a speech44. all of the following statements are true except that _. a. there are simple steps to improve your speakingb. a lecturer does not need to organize his speech c. few people know how to make good speechesd. research is important in preparing a speech 45. the underlined expression “talk over their heads” means “_”. a. speak too loudly b. look at the ceiling c. use difficult words and ideas d. look down upon them 46. the main idea of the passage is that _. a. you can improve your speaking ability b. a poor speaker can never changec. its easy to make a short speech d. it is hard to make a speechdthere are many colors in nature. but do you know if a color has weight? i think youll say “no”. but i am afraid you are wrong. if you dont believe, you may do a small experiment.first, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. then cover the box. third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. ok. now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. it is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.why do you think so? a scientist found that different colors have different weight in a mans mind. so he did man tests and at last he got the result. that is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. the heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.the scientist told us that colors also have smell. can you smell the color? of course not. then why did the scientist say so? that is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. it reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官).according to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. so your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. or youll be nervous or even get ill. for example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, youll feel you have been there for four hours. but if the room is blue, youll feel you have been there for only an hour. another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. that means our body temperature will change with different colors.47. the purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us _. a. a red box is heavier than a white one b. a color has weight in ones mind c. white paper is lighter than red paper d. you can know the weight of a color by holding it 48. why did the scientist say colors have smell? a. because people can sense the light from colors. b. because we can smell colors with our nose. c. because every color has its own sweet smell. d. because every color can give off light of the same length.49. if a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will _.a. rise b. fall c. stay the same d. change now and then50. this passage is probably a _. a. book review b. fiction（科幻） novel c. fairy tale d. science
