Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasnt a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, then he asked, “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didnt you ever wonder what youre really like? Well, you now have that girls opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldnt change (like being very thin), but a good number I couldand suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself. I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“Thats just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, youll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Dont shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.” Daddys advice has returned to me at many important moments.

She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer. C. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on. D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious. 58. Why did her father listen to her quietly? A. Because he believed that what her daughters “enemy” said was mostly true. B. Because he had been so angry with his daughters shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping silent for a while. C. Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment. D.

A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value. The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the British colony of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer-Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps. Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for the stamps. He accidentally inscribed the words“Post Office” instead of“Post Paid” on the several hundred stamps that he printed. Today there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left fourteen One Penny Orange-Reds and twelve Two Penny Blues. Because of the Two Penny Blues rareness and age, collectors have paid as much as 16,800 for it.60.Over a century ago, Mauritius _. A.was an independent country. B.belonged to India.

The climate has changed and I cant teach my son anymore, an old Inuit lady told us. The Inuit people know the Arctic best. This hostile (恶劣的) environment is as home to them as the city is to me. They were raised to live in harmony (和谐) with nature and to meet the challenges of survival in an extreme climate, but this very environment is changing rapidly, culturally as much as naturally. The Inuit youngsters grow up nowadays completely differently to the way the elders did. The Inuit lady we met has lived here for 35 years and a lot has changed since her arrival. The environment is becoming more and more unstable and the weather has become unpredictable, which makes hunting more and more difficult. Eating, living and hunting habits have all been transformed since the introduction of snow mobiles and junk food. These destroyed the balance of their traditional food. In fact, a fist-sized piece of beluga (白鲸) meat contains as much Vitamin C as five oranges. Thats why the Inuits can get all the physical nutrition(营养) their bodies need all year round without vegetables or fruits. It was only a short time ago that she had her first apple! We have a set of supplies specially designed to give our bodies the fuel they need for long days of skiing. Every gram of food that we take has an important function. Each day we consume around 6,000 calories, of which 2,000 calories are burnt during sleeping. The average person in everyday life needs around 1800 calories a day. Its definitely not easy to survive in the Arctic. Tomorrow well hopefully head off to the Arctic Ocean, if the weather up north allows.63. Why didnt the Inuit lady teach her son how to read weather?A. The weather there is too extreme to read.B. Her son is not willing to learn traditional methods.C. The climate patterns are too different from what they used to be.D. They are moving to big cities where its impossible to read weather.64. The underlined word unstable in Paragraph 3 probably means _. A. unpleasant. B. extreme. C. changeable. D. tough.65. All the following habits of the Inuits have been transformed EXCEPT _. A. eating. B. hunting. C. living. D. sleeping.66. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. The environment in the Arctic is changing more naturally than culturally.B. A fist-sized piece of beluga meat contains as much protein as 5 oranges.C. Generally, an average person burns 2,000 calories during sleeping.D. People consume more calories than average in the Arctic.D Along the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly, flies like a fat chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a cow and has claws (爪) on its wings when young. They build their homes about 4.6m above the river, an important feature for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin. In appearance, the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside. The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red eyes, and blue skin. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature, though, is only found in the young. Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak (喙), they can climb about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive（远古的) birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws. During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season begins, they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes. 67What is the text mainly about? AHoatzins in dry and rainy seasons. BThe relatives and enemies of hoatzins. CPrimitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon. DThe appearance and living habits of hoatzins. 68Young hoatzins are different from their parents in that_ . Athey look like young cuckoos. Bthey have claws on the wings. Cthey eat a lot like a cow. Dthey live on river banks. 69What can we infer about primitive birds from the text? AThey had claws to help them climb. BThey could fly long distances. CThey had four wings like hoatzins. DThey h
