roosters crowing to attract leopards that have wandered into human settlements officials said on Monday The wild cats in the state of Gujarat often get into villages near forests in search of food say officials adding that this results in attacks on people But rather than use methods such as live bait like goats tied to trees to lure 引诱 the leopards which then fall into large pits dug by guards officials say they have found a safer method to trap the cats The moos of a cow and bleating of a goat from the phone have proved effective to trap leopards said D Vasani a senior forest official in Gujarat This trick works Vasani said forest guards have downloaded the sounds of over a dozen animals as ringtones on their mobiles which they attach to speakers and fix behind a cage They then play the ringtone continuously for up to two hours until the curious leopard appears and moves into the cage looking for its easy meal At least five leopards have so far been lured from villages since the new ringtone method was introduced three months ago The cats have all been released back into forest areas Wildlife activists welcomed the new initiative 新方案 saying that previous methods of trapping the cats using pits often resulted in the animals getting injured 用心 爱心 专心5 31 What can be the best title of the passage A Cell Phones to Hunt AnimalsB Practical Uses of Cell Phones C Wildlife And New

speak in chat rooms They spend many hours on the computer and it becomes a compulsive habit They cannot stop and it affects their lives Ten years ago no one thought that using computers could become

long hours at different websites They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation They spend all free time surfing and don t concentrate on homework so this addiction influences their grades and success at schools Because they can find everything on the websites they hang out there Moreover this addiction to websites influences their social life They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends The relation with their friends changes The virtual life becomes more important than their real life They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society Because of the change in their behavior they begin to isolate themselves from the society and live with their virtual friends They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life Although they feel confident on the computer they are not confident with real live friends

each child On that beautiful spring day the children were to go out and discover for themselves some symbol of new life and place it inside the plastic eggs After the children returned to the classroom the teacher opened their eggs one by one asking each child to explain that symbol of new life The first opened egg contained a flower Everyone cheered In another was a butterfly When the teacher opened the last egg it was empty That s stupid said someone The teacher felt a pull at his shirt It was Philip Looking up Philip said It s mine I did it It s empty I have new life because the

the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge 保护区 ANWR to help secure America s energy future President Bush certainly thinks so He has argued that tapping ANWR s oil would help ease California s electricity crisis and provide a major boost to the country s energy independence But no one knows for sure how much crude oil lies buried beneath the frozen earth with the last government survey conducted in1998 projecting output anywhere from 3 billion to 16 billion barrels The oil industry goes with the high end of the range which could equal as much as 10 of U S consumption for as long as six years By pumping more than 1 million barrels a day from the reserve for the next two to three decades lobbyists claim the nation could cut back on imports equivalent to all shipments to the U S from Saudi Arabia Sounds good An oil boom would also mean a multibillion dollar windfall in tax revenues royalties 开采权使用费 and leasing fees for Alaska and the Federal Government Best of all advocates of drilling say damage to the environment would be insignificant We ve never had a documented case of an oil rig chasing deer out onto the pack ice says Alaska State Representative Scott Ogan Not so fast say environmentalists Sticking to the low end of government estimates the National Resources Defends Council says there may be no more than 3 2 billion barrels of economically recoverable oil in the coastal plain of ANWR a drop in the bucket that would do virtually nothing to ease America s energy problems And consumers would wait up to a decade to gain any 用心 爱心 专心8 benefits because drilling could begin only after much bargaining over leases environmental permits and regulatory review As for ANWR s impact on the California power crisis environmentalists point out that oil is responsible for only 1 of the Golden State s electricity output and just 3 of the nation s 46 What does President Bush think of tapping oil in ANWR A It will increase America s energy consumption B It will exhaust the nation s oil reserves C It will help reduce the nation s oil imports D It will help secure the future of ANWR 47 We learn from the second paragraph that the American oil industry A shows little interest in tapping oil in ANWR B expects to stop oil imports from Saudi Arabia C tends to exaggerate America s reliance on foreign oil D believes that drilling for ANWR will produce high yields 48 Those against oil drilling ANWR argue that A it will drain the oil reserves in the Alaskan region B it can do little to solve U S energy problem C it can cause serious damage to the environment D it will not have much commercial value 49 What do the environmentalists mean by saying Not so fast Line1 Para 3 A Don t be too optimistic B Don t expect fast returns C The oil drilling should be delayed D Oil exploitation takes a long time 50 It can be learned from the passage that oil exploitation beneath ANWR s frozen earth A involves a lot of technological problems B remains a controversial issue C is expected to get under way soon D will enable the U S to be oil independent 第二节第二节 信息匹配 每小题信息匹配 每小题 1 1 分 共分 共 5 5 小题 满分小题 满分 5 5 分 分 阅读下列应用文及相关信息 并按照要求匹配信息 请在答题卡上将相应题号的相应
