about it and i will ask you again soon.”several years passed before she asked me again.since making my first _3_，i had contemplated the correct answer.so this time i told her，“mommy，sight is very important to everybody，so it must be our eyes.”she looked at me and said，“you are _4_ fast，but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”over the years，mother asked me a couple more _5_ and always her answer was，“no，but you are getting _6_ every year，my child.”then last year，my grandpa _7_.everybody was heart broken，crying.my mom looked at me when it was our _8_ to say our final goodbye to grandpa.she asked me，“do you know the most important body part yet，my dear？”i was _9_ when she asked me this now.i always thought this was a _10_ between her and me.she saw the _11_ on my face and told me，“this question is very important.it shows that you have really lived your life.”i saw her eyes well _12_ with tears.she said，“my dear，the most important body part is your _13_”i asked，“is it because they hold up your head？”she replied，“no，it is because they can hold the head of a friend or loved one on them when they cry.i only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will have a shoulder to _14_ on when you need it.”then and there i knew the most important body part is not a _15_ one.it is sympathetic(同情的)to the pain of others.【语篇导读】

ahistorically, the condition of migrant farm workers, who labor in the vast agricultural fields of americas southern states, has been a difficult one. with no permanent home or income, these laborers often endure hard working conditions for extremely low wages, sometimes just a few dollars per day. in 1962, one of these migrant workers, a young man named cesura astride chive, decided to do something to improve the treatment that he and others like him received.born in 1927, cesura chive spent his early childhood on his familys small arizona farm, until the economic climate of the great depression forced them off their land. by age 10, chive was working alongside his parents as an agricultural laborer, living in a series of migrant worker camps. the young chive would attend 65 different schools before finishing high school, so frequently did his family move.after a short period serving his country in the navy in world war ， chive returned briefly to agricultural work. in 1962, he stopped field labor to form the national farm workers association, which later became the united farm workers of america. his goal was to create a migrant workers union large enough to give its members the power to demand fair wages and better working conditions from their employers.chive caught the attention of the entire nation in 1965, when he led his union and its 1,700 member families on a boycott against californias grape growers. his efforts _ five years later. with 17 million american consumers refusing to buy california grapes, the growers signed a collective agreement

i really started learning about time. i spent a week during my summer vacation building a bench with an older boy named tony. the bench now sits near the train station in my hometown. whenever i return, i drive to the station to watch people sit on the bench and observe life passing by.tony was my grandparents neighbor. im ashamed to admit it, but i was more interested in spending time with tony than in spending time with my grandparents. tony had a real talent for woodworking. the bench we built was made entirely from an old mosscovered walnut log we found behind tonys woodshed. we spent the last three days of my vacation completing the bench. countless times i told tony and my grandfather, who would turn up to check our progress, that we didnt have to finish right away. but my grandfather would have none of that. he grew up in an era in which time and resources were precious and counted in lives and lost opportunities, not in days, hours, or minutes. in this respect, tony and my grandfather were alike. tony seemed wise beyond his years. i like to think now that tony and i were joined that week, not only by the common goal of finishing the bench, but also by something much stronger. we finished the bench and it sat in my grandparents garage for some time. they eventually donated it to the town. tony, i learned, had joined the army. only recently did i learn why he

it was removed from the lista decision that is being challenged in court by a dozen conservation groupsthe gray wolf fell under the protection of individual states. that is turning out to mean almost no protection at all.idahos, fish and game department announced last week that it would allow 428 of the states estimated 1,000 wolves to die this year. some will die of natural causes. most will be killed by hunters.idaho officials argue that the remaining population will still be larger than the very small number to be protected in the original federal wolf recovery plans. but idahos fish and game department has overruled its own staff biologists, who for the good of the wolf population and the ecosystem (生态系统) as a whole argued that more animals should be allowed to survive.sadly, in idaho, wolves are nothing more than another game animal to be managed for the benefit of human hunters.beginning on sept.15, any idaho hunter with a hunting license and $10.50 for a wolf tag will be entitled to shoot one wolf, at least until the quota (限额) of dead wolves in his region has been reached. and how will a hunter know if the local quota has been reached? there will be a hot line, of course.hunters will be encouraged not to shoot wolves wearing radio collar, because those wolves are still being studied. perhaps the solution is to fit all wolves with radio collars.it is still possible that idahos wolvesand the wolves in other states will get a reprieve. a federal judge will soon decide whether to support or object to the governments decision to delist the gray wolf. we hope he will restore the wolf to the endangered species list. there is no better proof of how dangerous life is for wolves than idahos plan to protect them.【语篇导读】 本文作者就生活在rocky mountains地区的灰狼是否从联邦政府所列濒危物种的保护名单中去掉，阐述自己的观点。灰狼在联邦政府的保护下要比在各个州政府的保护下安全得多。36from the first paragraph, we can know that _.athe gray wolf was listed as an endangered species until march 28bin the authors opinion, individual states will not protect the gray wolf wellcthe gray wolf fell under the protection of individual states when it was listed as an endangered speciesdits up to the federal government to protect the gray wolf after it was removed from the list解析判断推理题。根据第二、第三句，在作者看来灰狼在各个州保护下形同虚设，根本得不到保护。故b项正确。答案b37why do idaho officials permit a certain number of gray wolves to be hunted?asome will die of natural causes if they are not killed by hunters.bhunters killed gray wolves for the good of the wolf population.cthey argue that more animals should be allowed to survive.dthe wolves left will still be more than those to be protected in the original federal wolf recovery plans.解析细节理解题。根据第五段第一句话可知，从9月15日起，任何持有狩猎证并交纳10.5美元一只灰狼标签，就允许射杀一只，直到达到该地区的限制额为止。由此可知d项正确。答案d38what does the underlined word “reprieve” in the last paragraph mean?aan official order to put gray wolves back on endangered list.ban official order to remove the gray wolf from the list of endangered species.can official order to permit 428 of the states estimated 1,000 wolves to be hunted.dan official order to fit all wolves with radio collars.解析词义猜测题。根据最后一段第二句可知，一个联邦法官很快决定是支持还是反对政府决定把灰狼从保护名单上去掉，所以a项正确。答案a39what does the author think of idahos plan to protect gray wolves?awolves are only a game animal to be managed for the benefit of human hunters.bthere is no better plan to protect gray wolves than idahos plan.cit will restore the wolf to the endangered species list.dits a danger to the life of the gray wolf.解析推理判断题。根据文章最后一句话可推断出，作者认为按照idaho州保护计划灰狼的生命安全得不到保障。故d项正确。答案d40whose point of view may the author agree to?aidahos fish and game department.bidahos officials.cstaff biologists in idahos fish and game department.dthe federal judge.解析推理判断题。最后一段倒数第二句表示作者的立场，希望灰狼重新列在保护名单上，这观点与第三段“idahos fish and game department”的观点一致。故c项正确。答案cdask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. recycling in the home is very important of course.however，being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need.we are dealing with the results of that_overconsumption in the greenest way possible，but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.the total amount of packaging increased by 12%between 1999 and 2005.it now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the uk.in many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment.the uk，for example，is running out of areas for burying this unnecessary waste.if such packaging is burnt，it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.recycling helps，but the process itself uses energy.the solution is not to produce such items in the first place.food waste is a serious problem.too.too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need.however，a few of them are coming round to the idea that this continue，encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags，for example.but this is not just about supermarkets.it is about all of us.we have learned to associate packaging with quality.we have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality.this is especially true of food.but it also applies to a wide range of consumer products，which often have far more packaging than necessary.there are signs of hope.as more of us recycle，we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material we are collecting.we need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture，but we have a mountain to climb.41what does the underlined phrase“that overconsumption”refer to?ausing too much packagingbrecycling too many wastescmaking more products than necessarydhaving more material than is needed解析词义猜测题。根据第一段第三句“.we already have more material than we need.”推知d项为答案，该答案可由最后一句“.but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.”得到印证。另外，根据构词法也可推知答案，over为前缀，意为“超过，越过，额外的”。答案d42the author uses figures in paragraph 2 to show_.athe tendency of cutting household wastebthe increase of packaging recyclingcthe rapid growth of supermarketsdthe fact of packaging overuse解析推理判断题。第二段谈的是
