In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had.Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became hard and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the country found itself faced by floods and starvation.Even though a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade the villager to see this. The villager wants wood to cook his food with, and he can earn money by making charcoal(木炭) or selling wood to the townsman（城市居民）. He is usually too lazy or too careless to plant and look after trees. So unless the government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests will slowly disappear.This does not only mean that the villagers sons and grandsons have fewer trees. The results are even more serious. For where there are trees their roots break the soil upallowing the rain to sink in and also hold the soil, thus preventing it being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the soil becomes hard and poor. The rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface, causing floods and carrying away with it the rich topsoil, in which crops grow so well. When all the topsoil is gone, nothing remains but a worthless desert.36. The purpose that the writer wrote this article is to _. A. tell people the use of wood B. tell people the function of tree roots C. warn that man mustnt destroy forests any more D. explain how trees help to prevent drought and floods37. In the writers opinion,_, or the forests will slowly disappear. A. measures must be taken B. people shouldnt draw benefit from the tree C. government must realize the serious results D. unless trees never be cut down38. According to the article we know it is _ to prevent the forests from slowly disappearing. A. necessary but impossible B. necessary but difficult C. impossible and unimportant D. difficult and impossible39. In the last two paragraphs the writer wanted to make it clear that _ . A. where there are no trees, the soil becomes poor but soft B. where there are many trees, there are more floods C. where there are no trees, the land might become desert slowly D. floods will make the land become desertB When the famous dancer Fred Astaire was interviewed for a job by a Hollywood producer, the movie “expert” turned him down, saying, “Cant sing. Cant act. Dances a little.” Heres another stupid mistake. When the great scientist Albert Einstein was at school, his teachers considered him rather dull. And a final story, the famous Polish pianist Paderewski was told by a teacher that hed never be a success as a performer because the middle finger on each hand was too short.What lessons can be drawn from these three experiences? First, true genius (天才) cannot be suppressed(压抑). For some reason or other it works its way out. Second, early judgements of a persons abilities may be unfair or just wrong. Third, when there is a real determination to succeed, obstacles(障碍) fall by the wayside. The famous motto “ad astra per aspera” can be translated as “To the stars through hardships.” Astaire, Einstein and Paderewski proved their critics wrong.40. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage? A. Fred Astaire was a famous dancer. B. True ability will always make itself known. C. Some people never get discouraged. D. Albert Einstein proved his teachers wrong.41. When Paderewskis teachers told him hed never be a success, they were _. A. being humorous B. cheerful, though concerned C. somewhat hesitant D. seriously mistaken42. “Ad astra per aspera” is used in the passage _. A. as a motto for the three mens lives B. to show the value of Latin C. to send the reader to the dictionary D. to point out that genius is always recognized early43. The writer of the passage thinks that the reader _. A. knows that the three men were successes B. someday dreams to become like one of the men C. sympathizes(同情) with the poor teachers of the three men D. knows that Fred Astaire was an actor famous for performing Shakespeares pla
