man named johnson lived alone in a village in the south of england. he had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. when he was seventy five, he gave $ 60,000 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a childrens ground.as a result of his kindness, he became famous. many people came to visit him. among them was a newspaperman. during their talk, johnson remarked that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be hundred. the newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five. johnson had a sense of humor. he liked whisky and drank some each day. “i have an injection (注射) in my neck each evening,” he told the newspaperman, thinking of his evening glass of whisky.the newspaperman did not understand what johnson meant. in his newspaper he reported that johnson was seventy-five and had daily injection in his neck. within a week johnson received thousands of letters from all over britain, asking him for the secret of his daily injection.21. johnson became a rich man through _.a. doing business b. making whisky c. cheating d. buying and selling land22. the gift of money to the school suggests that johnson _.a. had many children in the school b. was a strange old manc. was very fond of children d. was very kind23. many people wrote to johnson to find out _.a. what kind of whisky he had b. how to live longerc. how to become wealthy d. in which part of the neck to have an injection24. when johnson said he had an injection in his neck each evening, he really meant that _.a. he liked drinking a glass of whisky in the eveningb. he neednt an injection in the neckc. a daily injection in the evening would make him sleep welld. there was something wrong with his neckbin this world there is a creature，other than man，that can kill a whale. this creature is a killer whale，and it also eats seals and penguins.there is not just one killer whale but a whole pod of killer whales. a pod is a group of closely related whales. a pod is formed when a female killer whale gives birth to a baby，which means that the oldest female is the leader because all the other members are her children and her childrens children. a pod is made up of 4 to 40 killer whales. killer whales stay in a pod to protect the young and to help with hunting. these pods usually develop their own languages.what a killer whale looks like killer whales are always black and white. you can tell the female and male whales apart very easily. a male has a bigger dorsal fin(背鳍)than a female killer whale. a dorsal fin is the fin that is at the top of the killer whale. an adult male whale can grow up to 23 feet and weigh up to 4,0005,000 kilograms. a female can grow to 21 feet and weigh up to 2,5003,000 kilograms. a killer whale has 20 or more coneshaped(锥形的)teeth. these teeth help hold and kill their food.languages clicks and whistles are the language of all killer whales. one pods dialect can be different from the other pods dialect. this form of speech is very important because it is the way killer whales communicate. say that you and a friend sat across the room from each other. you would not be able to get his attention without using your voice. you see，the clicks and whistles are almost the same as the words in human speech. both are used for communicating.hunting without good hunting skills，the pod would not survive. killer whales sometimes hunt by themselves to get their own food. the newborn babies are taught everything they need to know about hunting as a member of the pod. killer whales eat salmon，squid，birds，penguins，sea turtles，seals，and porpoises. what they eat depends on what is in their area and what is available. killer whales can break thin antarctic ice. in this way，killer whales get their food，which can be penguins or seals.25which of the following is true about killer whales?akiller whales like to live in a pod. bkiller whales kill each other as food.chumans cant kill a whale. dkiller whales protect whales.26how can you distinguish male killer whales from female killer whales? amale killer whales are usually smaller than female ones.bmale killer whales have larger dorsal fins than female ones.ca male killer whale has over 20 coneshaped teeth.dmale killer whales are stronger than female ones.27we can conclude that _ from the fourth paragraph.akiller whales communicate with each other just like humansbkiller whales communicate with each other by clicks and whistlesceach pod of killer whales understands the dialects of other podsdclicks and whistles are common ways to find food among killer whales28the writer writes this passage by means of _.acomparison bpersuasion creasons dfactscbayfield shopping coupons(赠券)1. six hours free parkingif you spend

shopping is still a matter of wandering down the street or loading a cart in a shopping mall. soon, that will change. electronic commerce (trade) is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices. there will, however, be a cost: protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder. many governments therefore want to apply street regulations to the electronic world. but politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation.consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their rights to refund when goods are faulty. but governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen. even in a country where a clear right to compensation exists, the on-line customer in tokyo, say, can hardly go to new york to get a refund for a clothes purchase.one answer is for government to cooperate more: to recognize each others rules. but that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules. and plenty of countries have rules too fanciful for sober countries to accept. there is, however, another choice. let the electronic businesses do the regulation themselves. they do, after all, have a self-interest in doing so.in electronic commerce, a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset. governments, too, may compete to be trusted. for instance, customers ordering medicines on- line may prefer to buy from the united states because they trust the rigorous screening of the food and drug administration; or they may decide that the fdas rules are too strict, and buy from switzerland instead.customers will still need to use their judgment, but precisely because the technology is new, electronic shoppers are likely for a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the normal sort. and the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain when a company lets them down. in this way, at least, the advent(出现) of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws, not more.32. in case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a foreign country, what could he do?a. refuse to pay for the purchase. b. go to the seller and ask for a refund. c. appeal to consumer protection law.d. complain about it on the internet.33. in the authors view, businesses would place a high emphasis on honest dealing because in the electronic world _.a. international cooperation would be much more frequentb. consumers could easily seek government protectionc. a good reputation is a great advantage in competitiond. it would be easy for consumers to complain34. we can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the fda in the united states is_.a. very quick b. very cautious c. very slow d. rather careless35. according to the author, what will be the best policy for electronic commerce?a. self-regulation by the business. b. strict consumer protection laws.c. close international cooperation. d. government protection.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。five things to do in a traffic
