the earth is Death Valley It s a desert valley in North America The animals in Death Valley don t use technology to keep cool They have special abilities that help them live there The kangaroo rat is one animal that lives in Death Valley During the day in Death Valley it gets hotter than 100 F The kangaroo rat rests all day in a hole in the ground It covers the hole with grass to keep out the heat The kangaroo rat comes out at night when it is cooler This little 第 8 页 共 17 页 rat is also very good at conserving 节约 water It gets all the water it needs from the food it eats Some kangaroo rats never take a drink of water in their whole lives The sun makes the desert sand very hot Animals like snakes get too hot if they lie on the hot sand too long One snake called the sidewinder can solve this problem When it travels the sidewinder bends 使弯曲 its body into a W shape Then it uses the bottom 底部的 parts of the W like legs and walks sideways 向一侧 That way it touches only a little of the sand at a time so the hot sand doesn t burn the snake This strange way of moving is how the sidewinder got its name A lot of water in the desert is too salty for most animals to drink All water has some salt in it As the desert heat dries up pools of water the salt is left behind The remaining water in these pools can be much saltier than the ocean One kind of fish the desert pupfish can live in these salty pools because it can drink the salt water 1 Why does the kangaroo rat cover its hole with grass A To make it safe to live in B To make it look beautiful C To keep it cool 2 The kangaroo rat gets all the water it needs from A rain B rivers C its food 3 The sidewinder is named after A a place B a person C its way of moving 4 The desert pupfish can 第 9 页 共 17 页 A live in salt water B use water wisely C live without drinking water 5 What does the passage mainly tell us A How animals live in Death Valley B How Death Valley got its name C The weather in Death Valley 14 8 分 阅读理解 Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character And if there is can it affect how a nation succeed or fail At least one group of people is certain that it can A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs in the UK found that 70 felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public Britain is hostile to success they said It has a culture of jealousy As a result the survey said entrepreneurs were unloved unwanted and misunderstood Jealousy is sometimes known as the green eyed monster and the UK is its home Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money Some were given a little others a great deal Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others but at the cost of losing their own Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain But there is also conflicting evidence The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world s fourth largest economy That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe So the British people are not lazy either It is not really success that the British dislike says Carey Cooper a professor of 第 10 页 共 17 页 management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology It s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem They set out to do things in their way They work long hours By their own efforts they become millionaires But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them It hardly seems worth following their example If they were more friendly people would like them more And more people want to be like them 1 Most entrepreneurs surveyed believe that A the British people hate success B the British people are hardworking C love of success is Britain s national character D they are considered as green eyed monsters 2 What does the result of the Warwich University s test show A Two thirds of the people tested didn t love money B Most people would rather fail than see others succeed C An imaginary amount of money does not attract people D Most people are willing to enjoy success with others 3 The writer of the passage seems to suggest that A jealousy is Britain s national character B British entrepreneurs are not fairly treated C the scientists at Warwich University did a successful test D the entrepreneurs in the UK do not behave properly 4 The best title for this article can be A Be More Modest and We Will Love You More 第 11 页 共 17 页 B Proud Entrepreneurs C The Frenchmen are Romantic While The British are Hostile D Only Pains but No Gains 四 四 任务型阅读任务型阅读 共共 1 1 题 共题 共 2525 分分 15 25 分 阅读下面短文 根据所读内容回答问题 When I first arrived on this island I had nothing But I ve
