your chair. ” “youre right,” i said. “and what would you have done if i had walked in and said would you mend this chair for me?” “i wouldnt have agreed to do it,” he said. “we dont do repairs, not

essential window on the world: their means of communicating, capturing prey (猎物), meeting mates and protecting themselves. a web-building spider without its web is like a man cast away on an island of solid rock, totally out of touch and destined to starve to death. so important is the web to an orb-web spiders survival that the animal will continue to construct new webs daily even if it is being starved. for 16 days the starving spider builds completely normal webs. then, as the animal gets scrawnier (憔悴的), it constructs a wider-meshed web using fewer strands (线). such webs would only trap larger prey, which is more economical from the perspective of a starving spider. the spider stores energy by recycling web protein. it simply eats its own web each evening and re-uses it to produce new silk. in studies with radioactively labeled materials, it was found that 95 percent of web protein reappears in the next days web. most of the energy needed for web-building is used in walking over the strands as they are laid down. scientists are impressed by the adaptability of the spiders highly preprogrammed brain, which is larger for its size than the brain of any other invertebrate (无脊椎动物). if web-building is interrupted, or if some of the existing strands are destroyed, the spider simply goes back to see where the web is left off and then finished building a normal web. one spider will even finish building the incomplete web of another. 32. what is probably the best title for the passage?a. secrets of spiders adaptabilityb. importance of webs to spidersc. secrets of the spiders life d. spiders highly preprogrammed brain 33. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true? a. web-building spiders have good eyesight.b. one web-building spider usually conducts one web.c. most spiders will stop conducting webs when hungry.d. web-building spiders will probably die without their webs.34. a spider conducts a wider-meshed web when _. a. it is 16 days old b. it is getting weakerc. it has fewer strandsd. it hunts for food35. a spiders ability to finish an incomplete web proves that _. a. it has a highly preprogrammed brain b. it reuses its web protein to reproduce new silk c. the web is everything for a spider d. it is able to rebuild a destroyed web 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。 36 this date was the old

writing, it is shorter and takes _63_ time. it can help us to develop the habit of thinking in english. _64_ we persist in this practice, gradually well learn how to express ourselves in english.we certainly have many _65_（difficult）in keeping a diary in english. firstly, _66_ often happens that we have trouble finding appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind. secondly, there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in chinese. _67_ it is extremely hard for us to put them into english properly. as far as i _68_ (concern), my suggestion is that we should always have a notebook and a chinese-english dictionary within easy reach. whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary. we can also turn to our english teacher for help, if necessary. in short, i believe that it is _69_ great use to keep a diary in english for _70_ development of our writing skills.第四部分：
