It seems as if they were performing a field symphony.The frog is a good and useful creature that benefits human beings. They can catch fast-moving insects. Each frog eats a large number of pests that are harmful _17_ crops. This little creature is regarded _18_ “the natural enemy of pests” _19_ now frogs are getting fewer and fewer. This is because they are killed and put on the table as a delicious dish by their chief enemy, human beings. It is _20_ shameless and cruel act, isnt it？_21_ cause responsible for the rapid reduction of frogs is that farmers use insecticides (杀虫剂) to kill pests and frogs get killed as a result of drinking poisoned water _22_ eating poison-killed insects. Something must be done without delay _23_(save) frogs. If we dont punish those _24_ sell and kill frogs to make money, then one day all of us _25_(punish) by nature for failing to keep the balance of nature. 阅读（共两节，满分50分）第一节 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AA farmer grew some vegetables in his garden.

She was too excited to do any housework that morning.In the evening she would go to a fancy dress party with her husband. She wanted to dress up as a ghost and as she had made her costume the night before, she was impatient to try it on. Though the costume consisted only of a sheet, it was really splendid. After putting it on, She went downstairs to find out whether it would be comfortable to wear. Just as Mrs Richards was entering the dining-room, there was a knock on the front door. She knew it must be the baker. She had told him to come straight in and to leave the bread on the table. Not wanting to frighten the poor man, she quickly hid in the small store-room under the stair. She heard the front door opened and heavy footsteps in the hall, then the kitchen. Suddenly the door of the store-room was opened and in came a man. Mrs Richards realized it must be the man from the Electricity Board who had come to read the meter（测量表）. She tried to explain the situation, saying “Its only me. ”but it was too late, the man let out a cry and jumped back several paces.

Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists(心理学家)tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we dont choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray. Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And dont forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.41. According to this passage, _. A. one can choose his color preference B. one is born with his color preference来源: C. ones color preference is changeable D. one has to choose his favorite color as soon as he can see clearly42.

A. colors do have effect on our moods(情绪) B. colors may have effect on our work and study C. light and bright colors make people happy D. you can know your friends better by the colors they like or dislike43. The main idea of this passage is _. A. ones color preference shows ones character B. you can brighten your life with wonderful colors C. psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preference D. ones color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings44. I am feeling black means _. A. I am feeling well. B. I am very happy. C. I am excited. D. I am depressed.45. If someone choose a red handkerchief, he will probably do the following things EXCEPT _. A. Becoming a leader. B. Joining the Student Union.C. Always complain and blame others. D.
