a little girl called jane eyre here？” she asked. i answered “yes，” and was then lifted out. i could see a house with many windows. there were lights burning in some of them. we went up a wide path, and were admitted at a door. then the servant led me through a passage into a room where she left me. i stood and warmed my frozen fingers at the fire and looked around. there was no candle, but the light from the fire showed walls, a carpet, curtains and furniture. then the door opened, and a tall lady entered followed by another who looked younger.“the child is very young to be sent alone，” she said, putting her candle down on the table.led by the younger lady, miss miller, through passage after passage, we came, at last to a long, wide room filled with many voices. there were many tables, and seated all round on benches were a large number of girls aged from nine to twenty. seen in the dim(昏暗的) light of the candles, their number appeared above eighty. each was dressed in a brown old fashioned dress of cheap material. it was their hour of study.miss miller signed to me to sit on a bench near the door, and then walking up to the top of the long room she cried out “monitors, collect the lessonbooks and put them away！”four tall girls arose and went round, gathered the books and removed them. miss miller again ordered, “monitors, fetch the suppertrays(托盘)！”then tall girls went out and returned soon, each carrying a big tray. food and water were in the middle of each tray. the food was handed round and everyone drank from the same mug. when it came to my turn, i drank too, for i was thirsty, but i did not touch the food. from there i was taken to my hard bed where i thankfully fell asleep immediately.语篇解读：历经艰难的长途行程后，jane eyre终于来到了这所学校。一天的生活很快结束，她进入了甜美的梦乡。1what is the best

cattle and sheep in a bid to cut the emission of greenhouse gases blamed for global warming.thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo farts contain no methane（甲烷）and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who emit large quantities of the harmful gas.while the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack pushing out carbon dioxide, livestock passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries.fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in australia is from enteric methane from cattle and sheep, said athol klieve, a senior research scientist with the queensland state government.and if you look at another country such as new zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, theyre actually up around 50 percent, he said.researchers say the bacteria also makes the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.but it will take researchers at least three years to isolate the bacteria, before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.the idea is controversial（争议）, but about 20 percent of health conscious australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.its low in fat, its got high protein levels and its very clean in the sense that basically its the ultimate free range animal（散养动物）, said peter ampt of the university of new south waless institute of environmental studies.53. according to the passage, global warming is now mainly caused by _ .a. methane b. carbon dioxide c. livestock passing wind d. not mention in this passage54. what does the underlined phrase “the idea”（paragraph 9）refer to?a. australians should give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep.b. the bacteria could make the digestive process much more efficient.c. australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.d. the bacteria could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.55. some australians begin to eat kangaroos because _.a. the kangaroos farts（放屁）contain no methane b. the kangaroos have a special bacteriac. the kangaroos are the national symbol in australiad. the kangaroos are low in fat and high in protein56. how will australian scientists solve the problem of global warming?a. eating more kangaroos. b. killing more cattle and sheep.c. letting cattle and sheep pass less wind.d. transferring the special bacteria in kangaroos stomachs to cattle and sheep.参考答案 53、dcd 56-d *结束from the first use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space stations, human beings have been putting great effort into space research. and so far, we have achieved many successes. but there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not stop trying to progress.the international space station (iss) is an important step we should take in space exploration. it is not only helpful but also essential. it provides a proper space environment for many experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time. it is also a base for the observations of the earth and the universe. it could also be an important base for later travel to the moon and mars. in a word, if we want to explore space more, the first thing we should do is to set up a space station.as the space station costs a lot of money, it is hard for one country alone to establish one. the usa seems to be the only country that has the ability to build a space station alone，and it has tried to do so, but not very successful. so it aggregated many other countries to work on it together. though it is still extremely expensive, it is much cheaper than doing it alone. it is really a job that needs everyones effort and will benefit everyone.led by the u.s. and russia, the iss is a joint project between six space agencies involving 16 countries. called the greatest achievement in human cooperation, the iss has come to the end of a ten-years hard work in construction. china has applied for participation in (taking part in) the project many times. unfortunately all the applications were rejected, which drove china onto the path of independent development. as the long march -f/t1
