forest rangers (护林员) came across a terrible sight one day in 2010. two tiger cubs (幼兽) lay dead in a wildlife preserve (保护区).the rangers were too late to find the cubs mother. all that remained of her was blood on the ground. poachers(偷猎者) had poisoned the tigers. then they ran off with the mothers body. if the rangers had not arrived, the poachers would have taken the cubs too. tigers in trouble one hundred years ago, there were about 100,000 tigers. today, only about 3,200 remain in the wild. poachers are a major problem. these killers sell tiger fur, teeth, claws, and other body parts in illegal markets. one tigers parts can see for $50,000. because they hunt in huge jungles thick with trees, poachers are hard to find. but they must be caught, says elizabeth bennett of the wildlife conservation society. this group works to help endangered animals. tiger “fingerprints” finally, after many months, the rangers spotted（认出） the poachers again. after an exchange of gunfire, they arrested the criminals.soon, the police found evidence that the poachers had killed again. the evidence came from a cell phone. on a poachers phone, police found photos of the men posing (摆姿势) with a dead male tiger. the poachers claimed that the photos were from a nearby country where tigers arent protected. but another photo told a different story.deep in the thai forest, the rangers had set up camera traps, which take photos when they sense movement. a camera trap photo showed the same male tiger walking through a wildlife preserve before he was killed. that meant that the tiger came from a protected area. but how could police prove it was the same tiger?tiger stripes are like fingerprints. no two patterns are the same. when police compared the photos, the stripes on the tigers head matched.the poachers were given up to five years in prison. that might not seem like much for killing tigers. but since the poachers were caught in july 2011, no tigers have been killed in that wildlife preserve.56. why didnt the poachers take the cubs?a. there wasnt enough time. b. the cubs body parts sold badly.c. the cubs were protected by the rangers. d. they didnt bring enough tools to carry them.57. why are poachers hard to catch?a. they can run very fast.b. there are not enough rangers.c. the rangers are not professional.d. they hunt in large and thick jungles.58. the police discovered that the poachers had killed again through _.a. a witness living nearbyb. one of the forest rangersc. photos on a poachers phoned. the poachers footprints left in the forest59. what do we know about the camera traps set up in the thai forest?a. they are useless.b. they play an important role.c. there are tigers fingerprints on them. d. the poachers know how to avoid them.60. the authors purpose of writing this story is probably to _.a. inform readers about poachingb. entertain readers with a funny storyc. persuade readers to become rangersd. instruct readers on using cell phonesb“mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton（骨骼）in the closet（衣橱）?” jessica asked. “a skeleton in the closet?” her mother paused thoughtfully. “well, its something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. for example, if in the past, someone in dads family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be a skeleton in his familys closet. he really wouldnt want any neighbor to know about it.”“why pick on my family?” jessicas father said with anger. “your family history isnt so good, you know. wasnt your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to australia for his crimes?” “yes, but people these days say that you are not a real australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.” “gosh, sorry i asked. i think i understand now,” jessica cut in before things grew worse.after dinner, the house was very quiet. jessicas parents were still quite angry with each other. her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. when she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to jessicas closet. just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. jessicas mother sank in a faint（晕倒）, waking only when jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. she looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.“what happened? where am i?” she asked. “you just destroyed the schools skeleton, mum,” explained jessica. “i brought it home to help me with my health project. i meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as i mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and dad.” jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “theyre both crazy,” she thought.61. according to jessicas mother, “a skeleton in the close” means _.a. a family honorb. a family story c. a family secret d. a family treasure62. what can we learn about some australians ancestors form paragraph 2?a. they were the earliest people living in australia. b. they were brought to australia as prisoners. c. they were involved in some crimes in australia.d. they were not regarded as criminals in their days.63. jessicas mother fell down into a faint because she was _.a. knockedb. frightenedc. injured d. surprised64. why did jessica bring a skeleton home?a. she needed it for her school task.b. she planned to keep it for fun.c. she was curious about it.d. she intended to scare her parents.65. jessicas parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because _.a. they were crazy b. they were over excitedc. they both thought they had won the quarrel d. they realized their misunderstanding cwhen abraham lincoln was invited to give a speech in brooklyn, new york, in february 1860, he was already famous throughout illinois, but almost no one in the east knew what he looked like.the presidential election of 1860 was coming, and lincoln, as a possible republican candidate(候选人), wanted to increase his popularity. hoping to introduce himself to hundreds of new voters(选民), lincoln eagerly accepted the invitation to the east. he wrote a powerful speech opposing slavery (奴隶制度). then he went to springfield, illinois by train.when lincoln arrived in new york, he was surprised to learn that so many people had bought tickets for his speech that it had been moved from a small brooklyn church to a new york city college.lincoln got to town exhausted. his suit was badly wrinkled(褶皱), and his one piece of luggage was old and covered with dust. worst of all, his plain (长相一般的) face, uncombed hair shocked those who greeted him. however, his admirers decided to have lincoln photographed(拍照). if the cameraman could make lincoln a little handsome, perhaps he could win more votes. they found the citys most famous photographer brady. brady and his assistants looked through the camera and surprised by what they saw. so they decided to make an adjustment before they took the picture.brady walked over to lincoln and pulled up lincolns shirt collar as high as it would go. as a result, the picture successfully covered up his long, ugly neck, which made lincoln appear quite handsome.lincolns speech that day proved to be a triumph. so did the photograph. the photo inspired thousands of copies; so many that brady insisted that this picture became the means to lincolns election to the presidency nine months later. if thats true it might be said that lincoln won the election by a necka neck that had been shortened in new york.66. lincoln went to the east in order to _.a. take a trip b. have himself photographedc. make a speech about illinois d. convince
