When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth rises. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel the cool air when it moves in. You feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool. Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask, “Why is the ocean full of salt?” scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into the cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get more salty every year.” Scientists are notsure about the answer to this question. We know a lot about our world, but there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious about them.窗体顶端1、（3.0分）The main idea of the passage is that _ .A)people feel cool when they are near a lake or an oceanB)scientists can explain everything we want to knowC)scientists can explain many things but not everythingD)the salt in the ocean comes from rocks参考答案：C窗体底端窗体顶端2、（3.0分）You feel cool when you are near a lake or an ocean because _ .A)the water is coldB)the earth is hotC)the water is colder than the earthD)the cool air from the water moves towards the land参考答案：D窗体底端窗体顶端3、（3.0分）Now scientists know _ .A)what makes people feel cool near a lake or an ocean in summerB)everything about the oceanC)why the ocean does not get more saltyD)what happens to the salt in the ocean参考答案：A窗体底端窗体顶端4、（3.0分）A rock cracks when _ .A)rain fallsB)it gets very hotC)it gets very coldD)either B or C参考答案：D窗体底端窗体顶端5、（3.0分）People are always curious because _ .A)they know nothing about the worldB)they know little about the worldC)there are answers they do not haveD)either A or B参考答案：C12(15.0) In theUnited Statesthere was an unusual tale telling of the daughter of a mechanic. One day while walking along the bank of a lake, the girl happened to see 20 eggs laid by a wild goose. After some time the girl realized the mother would not return to her eggs and she decided to take them home. There she carefully placed the eggs in the heat of a lamp. Several days later the eggs broke and the baby geese came into the world. Geese are known to take the first living thing they see as their mother. Thus, to these young geese, the girl was their mother. As they grew, the girl was able to lead her birds to run across the grass, but she could not teach them to fly. The girl became increasingly worried about this, both when awake and in her dreams. Later, she had an idea. She would pilot a plane to guide them in flight. She asked her father for a plane and he assembled small aircraft for her. Caring about her safety, the father decided to pilot the plane himself. However, the birds did not recognize or follow him, and instead slept in the grass. One day, the girl climbed into the plane, started it and soon left the ground. Seeing their mother take to the air, the birds eagerly flapped their wings and set out. She flew the plane freely in the sky, her young birds following.窗体顶端1、（3.0分）Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A)The Daughter of a Mechanic.B)A Girl and Her Father.C)A Girl and Her Geese.D)How to Teach Birds to Fly.参考答案：C窗体底端窗体顶端2、（3.0分）Why did the girl decide to take the eggs home?A)Because she liked the eggs.B)Because she wanted to eat the eggs.C)Because her father asked her to do so.D)Because she knew that the mother goose will not come back.参考答案：D窗体底端窗体顶端3、（3.0分）The baby geese naturally took _ as their mother.A)the mother geeseB)the girlC)the first thing they touchD)the girls father参考答案：B窗体底端窗体顶端4、（3.0分）What did the girls father do to help her?A)He assembled a small plane.B)He piloted the plane himself.C)He taught the geese how to fly.D)Both A & B.参考答案：D窗体底端窗体顶端5、（3.0分）How did the young geese learn to fly?A)By following the girl in the plane.B)By themselves.C)By following the girls father.D)By staying in the plane.参考答案：A三、Vocabulary and Structure答题要求 :For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.
