binoculars (望远镜) and ready to spend long hours waiting in all weathers for a precious glance of a rare bullfinch (红腹灰雀), britains birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport. but new figures show birdwatching is fast becoming a popular pastime, with almost three million of us absorbed in our fluttering feathered friends.devoted birdwatchers, those prepared to travel thousands of miles for a sighting of a rare siberian bird, are fast being joined by a new breed of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches (雀科小鸟) on a sunday walk or putting up a bird-box in the back garden.“almost three million uk birdwatchers are certainly possible if you include everyone with only a casual interest,” stephen moss said in his newly published book -a bird in the bush: a social history of birdwatching -which records the pursuit from the rich victorian englishmens love of shooting rare birds to the less offensive observational tendencies of birdwatchers today.television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend. last summer, bbc 2s britain goes wild was a surprise success. it pulled in three million viewers and led to bird-houses selling out across the uk as 45,000 people promised to put up a box.birdwatchers networking system first came to the attention of the nation in 1989, when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first vermivora chrysopteraa golden-winged songbird from north americato be seen in britain. he put a message out on the network service birdline, and the next day 3,000 birdwatchers proved the full pull of truly rare bird as they visited the tesco car park in kent, where it had settled. today, birdwatchers can log on to www.birdline.co.uk or have news of the latest sightings texted to their phones.“multimillion-pound spending on binoculars, bird food and boxes point to the increasing number of birdwatchers,” said david cromack, the editor of bird watching magazine. “the number of people involved is so big that they have great potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment.”67. which of the following cannot be true according to the passage? a. the network service has contributed to the rapid development of birdwatching. b. the current situation of birdwatching may promote the protection of the environment. c. birdwatching in britain was long considered a sport with a small group of followers. d. television wildlife programmes started birdwatching.68. what happened after the message of seeing a vermivora chrysoptera was put on the network? a. birdwatchers helped the rare bird settle in kent. b. large numbers of birdwatchers went to view the bird. c. many birdwatchers logged on to the website for details. d. birdwatchers showed their determination to protect the rare bird.69. the passage mainly tells us about _ in the uk. a. the history of birdwatching b. birdwatching as a popular expensive sport c. the impact of media on birdwatching d. a growing passion for birdwatching70. the word “satiated” in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “_”. a. satisfied b. affected c. reduced d. narrowed（三）athe bbc was founded in 1922, including radio and television services. it is based at broadcasting house in london.the bbc is controlled by some governors chosen by the government, but these people have freedom and the government cant interfere（干扰）. that is, the bbc is supposed not to be the mouthpiece（代言人）of the government. it has to be as fair as possible in giving radio and television time to, for example, political parties and religious（宗教）groups.there is a kind of interesting service in british-rental services. many people prefer to rent（租用）their television sets instead of buying them.the rent for a black and white set is about 80 pence a week （1980）. the rent of a color set is more than twice that of a black and white set. if the sets go wrong, people can have them repaired free of charge or replaced immediately.everyone has to buy a yearly licence, since there is no advertising on bbc radio or television. it is from the sale of licences that the bbc gets most of its money. a licence for a black and white set costs 8 pounds, and for a colour set 18 pounds a year.there are four specialized radio channels, which broadcast different kinds of programmes. radio i is mainly pop music. radio 2 deals

ireland, scotland, wales, and certain parts of england. it also broadcasts programmes about britainin many different languages as well as in english to all parts of the world.59the officials in charge

not the same. dthe bbc special programmes are not only for foreign countries but also for different areas in its own country.bthe united states covers a large part of the north american continent. its neighbors are canada to the north and mexico to the south. although the united states is a big country, it is not the largest in the world. in 1964, its population was over 185 000 000.when this land first became a nation, after winning its independence（独立）from england, it had thirteen states. each of the states was represented（代表）on the american flag by a star. all these states were in the eastern part of the continent. as the nation grew toward the west, new states were added and new stars appeared on the flag. for a long time, there were 48 stars. in 1959, however, two more stars were added to the flag, representing the new states of alaska and hawaii.indians were the first people of the land which is now the united states. there are still many thousands of indians now living in all parts of the country. sometimes it is said that the indians are “the only real americans”. most americans come from all over the world. those who came first in greatest numbers to make their homes on the eastern coast of north america were mostly from england. it is for that reason that the language of the united states is english and that its culture and customs are more like those of england than those of any other country in the world.64which of the following is true? aamerica is the largest country in the world. bthe population of america is larger than that of any other country in the

dcanada is americas nearest neighbour.67which of the following is the best title for the passage? athe states of america. bthe language of america. cthe united states of america. dthe culture and customs of america.(四)a what makes one person more intelligent than another? what makes one person a genius(天才), like the brilliant albert einstein, and another person a fool? are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? these are very old question and the answers to them are still not clear.we know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. in some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. it needs exercise. mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. the children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. if, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.parents should also be careful about what they say to young children. according to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. so it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “that was a very clever thing you did.” or “you are such a smart child.”56. a person _ is more likely to become a genius. a. whose parents are clever b. often thinking about difficult problemsc. often helped by his parents and teachers d. born with a good brain and putting it to active use57. it is better for parents _. a. to praise and encourage their children more often b. to be hard on their childrenc. to leave their children alone with nothing to dod. to give their children as much help as possible58. which of the following is not true according to the article? a. parents play an important part in their childrens growth.b. the less you use your mind the duller you may become.c. intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.d. just being born with a good mind is not enough.bmany of us have heard of the saying: everything is possible if you can just believe. but few of us really know the power of faith and perseverance (坚定). south african swimmer natalie du toit embodies (体现) those virtues. du toit, 24, became the first swimmer to compete in both the olympic games and the paralympics (残奥会) in beijing. although she finished 16th in the tough 10km marathon in the able-bodied games, she has collected three golds in the paralympics so far. one of the most successful disabled athletes of all time, natalie du toit was already a promising swimmer when she lost her leg in a motorcycle accident in 2001, at just 17. there are a lot of dark moments, du toit said. there are some days when i cry. but i try to remember that better days are ahead. you just go on. within a few months, she was back in the swimming pool. she still competes and still succeeds. the only difference is she has switched to longer events 一from 200m and 400m individual medley to 800m and 1,500m freestyle - to make up for her loss of speed with only one leg. but she made no adjustment to her mental outlook (精神面貌). going out in the water, it feels as if theres nothing wrong with me. it doesnt matter if you look different. youre still the same as everybody else because you have the same dream. she is the owner o
