Nothing could be done but 38 in cold wilderness(荒野). It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 39 of the rescue.It is almost 40 that he could stand the horror（恐惧） in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41 : “First of all I checked up my 42 conditions and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no 43 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 44 . In this way I dozed off.”His story put an end to my regret for the 45 of an exploration adventure that happened last year.

They want to bring water to the deserts, so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the desert in time. Why is more and more land becoming desert? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.

Without plants, the land can become desert more easily.56. Deserts _.

And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. Its important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing yourself to someone ,or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware of this, we have gathered tips on how to make a proper introduction.Always stand when making an introduction.When you are seated and someone comes up to greet you ,make the effort to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for yourself and for the other person.Always maintain eye contact while making an introduction.Many people are not aware of the value of this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image.Always introduce a person of lesser authority to one of greater authority. The most important thing to remember is to say the most important persons name first. For example ,when introducing your supervisor(监督人) to a job candidate, you would give your supervisors name first. Bob Jones, may I introduce Susan Lee, who has just graduated from ABC University?In a situation where rank is unimportant ,an introduction is based on sex and age .A man is presented to a woman and younger woman to an older woman.What if you find yourself in a situation where you have forgotten the other persons name? Start with a handshake and reintroduce yourself .By doing this ,you will usually cause the other person to do the same.However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK simply to apologize and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his name. This is not the ideal situation, of course ,but it does happen to all of us. The other person should be forgiving.60.The article gives you advice on_.A. how to make a self-introduction B. how to make a proper introductionC. how to leave a good impression on peopleD. how to greet people in social situations61.According to the passage ,people will think you are _if you dont make eye contact with them.A. not honest B. not confident C. shy D. unfriendly62.What should you do when you introduce a new worker to your boss?A.

What makes one person a genius(天才), like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful about what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”68. A person _ is more likely to become a genius. A. whose parents are clever B. often thinking about difficult problems C. often helped by his parents and teachers D. born with a good brain and putting it to active use69. It is better for parents _. A. to praise and encourage their children more often B. to be hard on their children C. to leave their children alone with nothing to do D. to give their children as much help as possible70. Which of the following is not true according to the article? A. Parents play an important part in their childrens growth. B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become. C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live. D. Just being born with a good mind is not enough.第卷第四部分任务型阅读：请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的词,每空一分,共10分。We are going to describe one way to build a rooftop( 屋顶外部) garden that does not even require soil.
