Upon inspection, to my disappointment, I realized it was the next door neighbors 10-year-old daughters rabbit. For years I had watched her come home from school and head straight out to its cage, free it and play with it in the yard. I knew that day would be no different and fearing for our dog, I had to think fast. The rabbit was quite dirty, as if it had put up quite a struggle, so I washed it, combed it with the dog brush and blew it dry with the leaf blower. Upon finishing its grooming I jumped the fence and replaced it back in its cage hoping its death would be written off as “natural caused”. Back to the hammock and JD. Within the hour the neighbors Volvo pulled in as usual and out popped the little girl, and as usual she headed straight for the cage. Only this time she stopped about six feet away and screamed: “DADDY!”. Her father, panic stricken, stood looking at the cage. Being the good neighbor that I am, I rushed to fence and asked if there was anything I could do. Her father less than calmly shouted, “What kind of sick individual would dig up a little girls rabbit and put it back in its cage?”61. The girl was shocked because . A. the rabbit was killed by someoneB. the rabbit was too cleanC. the dead rabbit was cleaned and put back into the cageD. the rabbit was asleep in the cage62. That day the girl ran to the cage . A. because her rabbit was thereB. because she had a habit of going there to see her rabbitC. because she wanted to see her rabbit againD. because the rabbit was dead63. We can infer that the rabbit . A. was alive before the writer saw his dog dragging itB. was already dead before the writer saw his dog dragging itC. was in the cage playing with the dogD. was at the fence seeking out for food before it was killed by the dog64. According to the story, the writer . A. was helpful to his neighborB. did a smart thingC. was honestD. made a mistakeBIts great fun to explore（探索）new placesit feels like an adventure, even when you know youre not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles. Do the map reading if youre being driven somewhere. Itll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction youre traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or youll have to move to the back seat. Get a group of friends together and go exploring. Youll need a good map, a compass（指南针）, a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies（应急现金）. Tell someone where youre going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up. See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B（and B to C, etc. ）in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either way, its not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit. 65. Sitting beside the driver, you should _. A. direct the driver when necessaryB. look ahead to see where theres a turnC. move to the back seat if feeling uncomfortableD. keep looking at the map to find a place to go to66. Why do you need to tell someone your exploration plan before setting out?A. To get information when in danger. B. To be saved in case of an accident. C. To share the fun with him/her in exploration. D. To tell him/her whats going on with the group members. 67. Orienteering activities can _. A. make people work fastB. help people stay healthyC. help people organize other activities D. make people get prepared for sportsCThe word “death” is a word many Chinese friends tell me I should not say aloud. They advise me to avoid the word because only speaking of it may bring ill fortune. I deeply believe, however, that to know how to live, we must also know how to die. The problem is how do we talk about death?Like everyone in Taiwan this week, I have had “Tomb Sweeping Day”. I am proud to be part of a people whose culture sends millions of families to cemeteries on this special day to share memories and endless love. Today, eight days after the death of Pope John Paul II, millions of people of all backgrounds still grieve（悲痛）his passing away. He was a deeply human person who knew how to laugh and show emotions, a writer with a gift for words a leader who appealed to us by the sheer light of his love for life. On the same day and only hours before the Holy Father left us, a friend of mine named Veronica McBride died of cancer in a small Wisconsin city. My friend Veronica was 52 years old. She was an attractive, humorous young woman who, as the saying goes, “never married”. She published several humor books with her mother, Mary McBride. She enjoyed traveling, and for years sent Christmas card photos of herself standing beside monuments or odd animals. She fought cancer for five years. She joked about her treatment keeping her pretty because it kept her thin, and told me she didnt mind losing her hair because of chemo therapy. “I get to wear nice wigs!”The last time I saw Veronica was when I visited her family on a sunny day in August in 2003. When she burst into the front door later and saw me in the living room, she ignored me completely in her hurry to hug her newest baby nephew, leaving me shaking my head in laughter at her. As we look to the significance of the Holy Father and his life, surely we must also keep our eyes open to see the wonder and goodness in ordinary people who show us how to live and how to die. 68. The purpose of the article is _. A. to memorize his friend VeronicaB. to talk about the significance of life and deathC. to teach us how to face life and deathD. to compare his friend and the Holy Father Pope John Paul II69. The underlined phrase “chemo therapy” in Paragraph 4 probably means _. A. a medical treatment B. a kind of cancerC. a kind of medicine D. the newest machine70. Why does the writer compare the Holly Father with his friend?A. Because they are both the persons he admires. B. Because they have a lot in common. C. Because he wants to show that ordinary people can be great as well. D. Because he wants to memorize them both. 71. From the phrase “burst into”, we can see that Veronica is _. A. brave B. sportive C. humorous D. energeticDMelissa Poe was 9 years old when she began a campaign for a cleaner environment by writing a letter to the then President Bush. Through her on efforts, her letter was reproduced on over 250 donated billboards（广告牌）across the country. The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment（Kids F. A. C. E. ）in 1989. There are now 300,000 members of Kids F. A. C. E. worldwide and it is the worlds largest youth environmental organization. Poe has also asked the National Park Service to carry out a “Childrens Forest” project in every national park. In 1992, she was invited one of only six children in the world to speak at the Earth Summit in Brazil as part of the Voices of the future Program. In 1993, she was given a Caring Award for her efforts by the Caring Institute. Since the organization started, Kids F. A. C. E. members have distributed and planted over 1 million trees! Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kids Yards the creation of backyard wildlife habitats（栖息地）and now Kids F. A. C. E. is involved in the exciting Odyssey, which is a great way to start helping. “We try to tell kids that its not OK to be lazy,” she explains, “You need to start being a response, environmentally friendly person now, right now, before you become a resource-sucking adult. ”72. Kids F. A. C. E. is _. A. a program to help students with writingB. a project of litter recyclingC. a campaign launched by President BushD. a club of environmental protection73. What can we learn about Poe?A. She was awarded a prize in Brazil. B. She donated billboards across the country. C. She got positive responses for her efforts. D. She joined the National Park Service. 74. Kids Yards is _. A. established in national parkB. started to protect wildlifeC. a wildlife-raising projectD. an environment park for kids75.
