阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）awhether we should allow marine (海洋的) parks to stay open has been widely debated in our community recently. a variety of different arguments have been put forward about it.smith, a sociologist, argued that dolphin parks provide the only opportunity for much of the public to see marine mammals. as this argument goes, most australians live in cities and never get to see these animals. marine parks allow the average australian to appreciate our marine wildlife. however, in fact, there are many places where they can be seen in the wild. moreover, these places do not charge an overpriced entry fee they are free.dr. alison lane, the director of the cairns marine science institute, insists that we need marine parks for scientific research. she argues that much of our knowledge of marine mammals comes from studies which were undertaken at marine parks. the knowledge which is obtained at marine parks can be useful for planning for the preservation of marine mammal species. however, jones, a zoologist, explains that park research is only useful for understanding captive animals and is not useful for learning about animals in the wild. their diets are different, they have significantly lower life lengths and they are more likely to have a disease. in addition, marine mammals in dolphin parks are trained and this means that their patterns of social behavior are changed.the marine park owners association holds that marine parks attract a lot of foreign tourists. this position goes on to state that these tourists spend a lot of money, increasing our foreign exchange earnings and assisting our national balance of payments. however, foreign tourists would still come to australia if the parks were closed down. indeed, surveys of overseas tourists show that they come here for a variety of other reasons and not to visit places like seaworld. tourists come here to see our native wildlife in its natural environment and not to see it in cages and concrete pools. they can see animals in those conditions in their own countries.in a word, perhaps an agreement cannot be reached now. however, a question does deserve our consideration: if we continue with our past crimes against these creatures, how will our future generations view us?56who support(s) the idea of closing marine parks?a. most australians. b. jones. c. smith. d. alison lane. 57which is not the reason to keep marine parks?a. for entertainment purpose. b. for scientific research purpose.c. for economic purpose. d. for political purpose.58the author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by_.a. pointing out the problems with keeping the marine parksb. using evidence he has collected at the marine parksc. discussing the advantages of animals natural homesd. questioning the way the animals are studiedb perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money. strange as it may seem, if youre unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desiresnot that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you dont have enough tastes.real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities(能力)to enjoy life. most people are already swamped(淹没)with things. they eat, wear, go and talk too much. they live in too big a house with too many rooms, yet their house of life is a hut.your house of life ought to be a mansion(豪宅),a royal palace. every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. here are several rooms your house of life should have.art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. if you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when youre hungry.literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. to gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.music like mozarts and bachs shouldnt be absent. real riches are of the spirit. and when youve brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. and life is a matter of thrills.sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. no matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the bad days, if you could, and did, play a bit. whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, he secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.59.the author intends to tell us that.a. true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair meansb. big houses are peoples most valued possessionsc. big houses can in a sense bring richness of lifed. true happiness comes from spiritual riches60.the underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that.a. however materially rich, they never seem to be satisfiedb. however materially rich, they remain spiritually poorc. though their house is big, they prefer a simple lifed. though their house is big, it seems to be a cage61.it can be learned from the passage that.a. more money brings more happiness b. art is needed to make your house beautifulc. literature can enrich your spiritual life d. sports contribute mainly to your physical fitness62.what would be the best title for the passage?a. house of life b. secret of wealth c. rest and refreshment d. interest and enthusiasmcsydneya shark savaged a schoolboys leg while he was surfing with his father at a beach in sydney on february 23. it was the third shark attack along the coast of australias largest city in a month.the 15-year-old boy and his father were in the water off avalon, on sydneys northern beaches, around dawn when he was attacked. the citys beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.“the father heard a scream and turned to see his son trashing (扭动) about in the water,” police said. “fortunately, the shark swam away and the boy was helped to shore by his father.”lifesaving club spokesman nick miller said, “it got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged his out of water.” he said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to the shore. “there was a lot of pain, as you can imagine.” the teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.police said the bites “cut through to the bone”, but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures (骨折). he was in a stable condition now.several beaches were closed after the attack. water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark, while police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks. but they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy. “i dont even know if he saw it,” miller said.many shark species live in the waters off sydneys beaches, but attacks on humans are still relatively rare. however, there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month, one on a navy diver in sydney harbor, not far from the famous opera house, and the other on a surfer at the citys world-famous bondi beach.fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise. there is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor, which has increased fish stocks. marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment, attracting sharks closer to the shore as they chase fish. many shark species, including the great whitethe man-eaters made famous in steven spielbergs jawsare protected in australian waters.63. what do we know about the city of sydney from the passage?a. it is one of the largest cities in australia. b. sydney harbor is not far from the famous opera house. c. there are many locals and tourists on its coast all the year round.d. there are few shark species in the waters off sydneys beaches. 64. the underlined word “savaged” in the first paragraph probably means “_”.a. attracted b. dragged c. bit d. packed65. about the injury of the boy we know that _. a. he was losing much blood when he was dragged out b. he was very nervous when he was sent to hospital c. he may be in danger of losing his leg d. he was injured in the right leg66. all the following are the causes of australias sharks increasing except that _.a. environmental protection has created a cleaner environment b. a ban on commercial fishing has increased fish numbers c. many shark species are protected in australian waters d. the film jaws has made the great white famousdworld travel has moved on to a new level as new websites spring up to enable travelers to plan their trips online. virtual tourism is the latest name of the game and although relatively new, has seen some tourism websites grow to host over one-million users. typically, this development features a website that contains the answers to almost any tourism question.
