chimes 乐钟 stopped ticking for 90 minutes an engineer said Saturday Officials do not know why the 147 year old clock on the banks of the River Thames stopped at 10 07 p m Friday It continued keeping time but stopped again at 10 20 p m and remained still for about 90 minutes before starting up again a spokeswoman for the House of Commons said A recent period of hot weather may have been to blame Temperatures in London reached 90 Saturday and forecasters called it England s hottest day in May in the past fifty three years since 1953 Big Ben which is operated by the Palace of Westminster survived attack by German Luftwaffe bombers during World War continued to mark the time within11 2 seconds of Greenwich Mean Time However the clock has experienced occasional problems In 1962 snow caused the clock to ring in the New Year 10 minutes late In 1976 the clock stopped when a piece of its machinery broke Big Ben also stopped on April 30 1997 and once more three weeks later Big Ben is actually the clock s 13 ton bell which was named after Sir 7 Benjamin Hall the British commissioner of works at the time the clock was built The official name for the Gothic tower holding Big Ben is St Stephen s Tower Standing 315 feet tall it was completed in 1859 after an 1834 fire destroyed most of the Palace of Westminster 56 How many times has Big Ben gone wrong up to now A Three B Five C Six D Eight 57 Which of the following is NOT true about Big Ben according to the text A Big Ben was by the name of Sir Benjamin Hall B Big Ben was famous for its accuracy and chimes C Big Ben once made mistakes in telling time D Big Ben was damaged in 1834 in a big fire 58 The probable reason for Big Ben stopping ticking for 90 minutes is A high temperature B low temperature C broken machine D heavy snow 59 Which of the following may be the beat title of the passage A Big Ben s History B Solution to Big Ben C Symbol of London D Big Ben s Silence B B It s 5 00 in the morning when the alarm 闹钟 rings in my ears I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom I turn on the light and put on my glasses The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully Usually I go for a long run but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD insanity Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement As I near the end of the exercise I feel extremely tired but a smile is on my face It s not a smile because the DVD is over but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit Some people enjoy shopping smoking food work or even chocolate But I need exercise to get through each day Some shake heads when they see me run through the town Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother s chocolate cake They raise their eyebrows surprised by my no thank you or by my choice to have a salad Over the years I have learned it s okay to just say no I shouldn t feel sorry for refusing food that I don t want to eat So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5 00 a m What gives me the reason to just say no to ice cream Commitment A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety increases self confidence and energy 8 extends life and above all improves my body shape This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right It s through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out 60 Why is there a smile on the author s face in the morning A Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully B Because she finishes her favorite exercise C Because she enjoys the interesting DVD D Because she feels a sense of achievement 61 Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2 A She doesn t treat others politely B She likes to make others surprised C Others don t understand what she does D Others try to help her by offering her food 62 What does the underlined word commitment in the last paragraph mean A Good health B Firm belief C A strong power D A regular habit 63 What can we learn about the author from the text A She acts in a strange way B She wants to look different from others C She aims to develop a good body shape D She has difficulty getting along with others C C Think about what you usually have for a meal Is it a hamburger What about vegetables Would it surprise you to learn that what you eat can affect the whole planet It can in a big way Scientists attending the American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting in Chicago presented new studies showing how food and its production affect the globe and its warming climate It is generally believed that global warming is caused by the large amounts of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere One of these greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide 二氧化碳 What does this have to do with food A big part of the carbon dioxide comes from the process of making and eating food the scientists reported in Chicago The production of meat contributes a lot of that carbon dioxide The process of making a hamburger for example requires a lot of energy A cow has to be fed and raised on farmland and cow manure 粪肥 is a major 9 source of methane 甲烷 an especially powerful greenhouse gas By the time a hamburger is finally served on a dinner plate it has done great harm to the environment The message from the research is clear We can greatly reduce the production of greenhouse gases by eating less meat All kinds of meat the scientists reported are harder on the planet than vegetables To grow and eat a pound of potatoes for example sends less than one quarter pound of carbon dioxide or other warming gases into the air So shifting our diet to less meat and more vegetables as it turns out may do the world some good 64 Generally speaking people believe that global warming is caused by A cutting down too many trees B raising too many cows C growing too many vegetables D releasing too much greenhouse gases 65 The production of meat produces a lot of A green houses B carbon dioxide C cow manure D methane source 66 Which of the following is NOT true A To make and eat meat requires a great deal of energy B To feed and raise cows on farmland contributes greenhouse gases C To grow and eat vegetables does no harm to the environment D To make and eat hamburgers sends harmful gases into the air 67 Writing the passage the writer seemingly intends to A encourage us to grow more vegetables to reduce greenhouse gases B persuade us to develop a good eating habit to keep healthy C advise us to make less hamburgers in order to save energy D appeal to us to protect the environment by eating less meat food D D Just

Animals are more like us than we ever imagined They feel pain they experience stress they show affection excitement and love All these findings have been made by scientists in recent years and such results are beginning to change how we view animals Strangely enough some of this research was sponsored by fast food companies like McDonald s and KFC Pressured by animal rights groups these companies felt they had to fund scientists researching the emotional and mental states of animals McDonald s for instance funded studies on pig behavior at Purdue University Indiana This research found that pigs seek affection and easily become depressed if left alone or prevented from playing with each other If they become depressed they soon become physically ill Because of this and other similar studies the European Union has banned the use of isolating pig stalls from 2010 In Germany the government is encouraging pig farmers to give each pig 20 seconds of human contact a day and to provide them with toys to prevent them from fighting Other scientists have shown that animals think and behave like humans Koko the 300 pound gorilla at the Gorilla Foundation in Northern California for instance has been taught sign language Koko can now understand several thousand English words more than many humans who speak English as a second language On human IQ tes
