Unlike the cow and the sheep, it is not a grass-eater. Its ancient home was the forest, where it searched for different kinds of food, such as nuts, roots, and dead animals. For many centuries the farmer allowed it to continue there, leaving his pigs to look after themselves most of the time. As the woodlands began to become smaller, the pig slowly began to be kept on the farm itself. But it did not finally come into a shed, where it was fed on waste food from the farm and the house, until the eighteenth century. The pig, then, became a farm animal in the age of agricultural improvement in Britain in the eighteenth century, but it was given little attention by most animal keepers. There were, however, various less well-known farmers interested in pigs and they based their improvements on new types of pig from foreign countries. These were the Chinese pigs. These were very different from the thin and leggy British woodland pigs. They had shorter legs and flatter faces, and they were ready to be eaten earlier and produced finer meat. By the end of the eighteenth century these overseas pigs had affected the color, shape and characteristics of the native British pig a great deal. In the early nineteenth century, pig-farmers worked at improving all sorts of pigs. Many of the special pigs they developed are now forgotten, but by the end of the century they had set up most of the kinds we know in Britain today. 1.In what way the pig is different from the cow and the sheep?D A)It looks after itself most of the time. B)It lives mainly on grass. C)It was kept on the farm from the very beginning. D)It lives on different kinds of food.2.It was not until_C_ that pigs came into a shed.

A)animal keepers paid much attention to pigs B)pigs became thin and leggy C)pigs received little attention D)British types of pig were replaced by Chinese ones5.The passage mainly talks about _D_. A)new kinds of pigs in Britain B)the food for pigs in Britain C)the ways pigs were fed in Britain D)how pigs became tamed in BritainPassage 2 Looking through her dorm window, Cai Jingjing sees a bright red structure where a fruit market used to stand. The new building is an Olympic gymnasium on the campus of Beijing University of Science and Technology (BUST). This gym will house the judo events at the 2008 Games. “Ive seen the market turn into a grand gymnasium: the groundwork, the wall, then the roof- each change seems to have brought us closer to the Olympic Games.” Cai said. Most Olympic host cities struggle to make use of their newly-built stadiums after the Games. So it makes sense that cities often decide to build Olympic stadiums on University Campuses. After all, universities will always have an endless supply of students eager to use the facilities.In China, BUST is one of the six universities hosting Olympic events in campus gymnasiums. Four of these gyms are brand new. Existing gyms at Beijing Institute of Technology(BIT) and Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (BUAA) will also be used for the events.But until after the Olympics, the campus gyms all belong to Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (BOCOG). The students are more excited than bothered about the waiting. They say that they will have better chance of becoming volunteers for 2008 Olympic Games. They believe that international games will make them international and they are expecting to experience such feelings during the Olympic Games. 6.The site of the new Olympic Gymnasium now being built in BUST used to be _A_. A)a fruit market B)a student dorm C)a grand gymnasium D)a judo event house7.The process of building the new Gym seems to follow the order of _D_.

Then Charlie Kemp came out of his house and walked up the road. “Morning, Charlie,” I said. “Lovely day, isnt it?” He smiled at me. I went on with my work. Twenty minutes later, a policeman arrived and said to me: “You will have to put out that fire. Your neighbor has said something unpleasant to us.
