Divers can try hiding near a rock or reef or going back to back with a partner so that you can have eyes on all sides.Poke (刺) it hard and fastYou want to stop the shark from actually biting you, and this can be achieved with the poke-to- the-nose method. Poking the shark on the nose is your best bet, as the nose is especially sensitive (敏感的). Cant reach its nose? You can also aim for the gills (腮). The shark is likely to recover quickly, so youd better get away as fast as you can once youve made your move. The poking on the nose will only work once or twice.Fight backIf you find yourself in the sharks mouth, fight back as hard as you can.

Many people were around her but they most probably didnt want to buy roses tonight. My husband and I walked past her, and then walked back. I love flowers, but roses are far from being my favorite.But this was not about the rose.We bought ten roses. “Give her one,” said my husband. I gave one to her for the pricelessness of a sudden smile.We walked on with nine roses. We were wondering if we would hand them out to random (随意的) strangers or wait to give someone sad-faced.Soon we walked into a street with shop windows full of very nice but expensive things. Then we turned onto a side street. No more shop windows, only mostly darkened office buildings, except for one lighted door through which we saw an older woman with a duster (抹布) in her hand. She was cleaning up after a long day.Both of us smiled. We knew whom the roses to give. We crossed the street and knocked on the door. She felt surprised when I told her that I wanted to give her the flowers. “Theyre for you, because we were walking by and saw you working so hard and thought you might like to, take these home with you.” I said.A smile appeared on her face, she was looking at the roses in a way that made them seem more beautiful than Id thought them a minute ago.“Thank you, this is my first and best present.” She said.()30. What can we know from the first paragraph?A. The flowers were easy to sell.B. The woman was living an easy life.C. Few people bought the womans flowers.D. The woman sold many roses today.()31. What can we know from the underlined sentence?A. The writers favorite is the rose.B. The writer wanted to help the woman.C. The writer didnt want to talk about roses.D.

From the passage, we cant know that _.A. the writer and her husband were both kindB. the writer and her husband didnt keep the flowers for themselvesC. the writer and her husband would like to give the flowers to someone richD. the writer and her husband handed out the flowers to two people()33. What can we learn from what the woman said in the last paragraph?A. She often got flowers from others.B. She would sell the flowers to others.C. She would hand the flowers out to others.D. She was thankful for what the writer and her husband did.C“Gift” comes from the old Germanic root for “to give”. It meant an act of giving, and then turned into the thing being given. In Old English it meant the dowry given to a brides parents.“Present” comes from French. A present is the thing presented or given. But from the 13th century, the two words were in use for the idea of something given to others without paying.However, they still have some differences in meaning and usage.“Gift” has more meanings. Gifts can be talents. For example, you can have the art gift or a musical gift Gifts can be intangibles (无形的东西). There is the gift of understanding or the gift of a quiet day.But we dont use presents for things like this. Presents are real objects. If your whole family gave donations (捐款) to pay for your college on your birthday, would you say “I got a lot of presents?” It doesnt exactly sound wrong, but since you never hold these donations in your hand, “gifts” seem to fit better.“Gift” can also act like an adjective to be put in front of another noun. What do you call this kind of shop where you can buy presents? A gift shop. What do you call the basket of presents that you can send to others? A gift basket. “Present” cant be used like this. We may have gift boxes and gift cards, not present boxes or present cards!“Gift” is used more often than “present” in modem English. “Present” also means “the time now”.()34. We can use the following expressions EXCEPT _.A. Bill has a gift for sportsB. Mary got into a present storeC. Jack has received lots of birthday giftsD. Rosa enjoys shopping at present()35. What can we know about the words “gift” and “present” from the passage?A. They both have the same meaning from the beginning.B. “Present” is used more often than “gift” in modem English.C. We can call the basket of gifts sent to others “a present basket”.D. Theyre both used for describing something given to others for free.()36. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?A. “Gift” has more meanings than “present” in English.B. “Gift” and “present” come from different language families.C. “Gift” and “present” have some differences in meaning and usage.D. “Gift” and “present” have similar meanings, but people prefer to use “gift”.()37. Where can we probably read the passage?A. In a fashion magazine.B. In a travel guide.C. In a newspaper.D. In a sports magazine.DDo you know anything about email?Email is a kind of communication that is changing, for the worse, the way we write and use language, say some communication experts.“Email has helped the spread of careless writing habits,” says Baron, a professor at an American university. She says the poor spelling, grammar, punctuation (标点符号) and sentence structure in emails show the growing unconcern about the way we write.Baron argues that we shouldnt forgive (原谅) and forget the poor writing in emails. “The more we use the email, the more it becomes the normal way of writing,” the professor says.Others say that though it has poor writing, email has done what several generations (代) of English teachers couldnt do. It has made writing fashionable again.“Email is a new communication technology,” says Ian Lancashire, a professor of English at Toronto University. “It fills the gap (缺口) between spoken language and the formal (正式的) methods of writing. It is the purest form of written speech.”Lancashire says email can help people who are usually afraid of writing to get their thoughts flowing easily onto a blank screen. He says this is because email is close to speech. “Its like a circle of four or five people around a campfire,” he says.Still, he accepts that this freedom to express themselves often gets people into trouble. The number of emails sent in a day almost is the number of letters mailed in a year. But more people are recognizing the content (内容) of a typical email message is not often exact.()38. What can we know according to Baron?A. Email changes the way people communicate in everyday life.B. People should check the email many times before sending it.C. More people dont take the mistakes seriously when writing an email.D. Email has become a normal way of writing.()39. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?A. Email.B. The poor writing.C. The good writing.D. The communication technology.()40. Ian Lancashire thinks _.A. people dont like to use emailsB. it is helpful to people to use email to express themselvesC. emails are harder to write than lettersD. people should remember the mistakes in emails()41. Whats the main idea of this passage?A. People should stop using email to communicate.B. People have different opinions about email.C. People should learn to write email correctly.D. People have realized the, importance of good writing.EA ban (禁令) on pit bulls (a type of dog) in Montreal that animal protection groups have been against will be rolled back later this month. Valerie Plante said that she would put an end to the ban. The ban was first put into place by former mayor Denis Coderre.In 2016, Coderres government passed a law. It banned people in Montreal from getting pit bulls. The law allowed people who already owned pit bulls to keep them, but owners must pay a $150 permit fee and cover the dogs mouths and noses in public.The Montreal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) strongly went against the new rules. They said that such rules would cause animal shelters (庇护所) to kill some of their animals.The Montreal SPCA started a battle (斗争). And it caused some rules to be changed. A change was that the city couldnt give a killing order because of a dogs appearance.The ban appeared to be in response to (对做出反应) the death of Christiane Vadnais, who was killed in an attack by her neighbors dog. After the dog was called into question, a DNA test found that the dog was a pit bull, the CBC reported.Vadnaiss brother, Gaston, and sister, Lise, have spoken out and said they are disappointed that the rules were being lifted. Lise Vadnais told CTV that she believed the change would lead to more deaths in the future. “To reduce dog bites, we need to look at all dogs, because pit bulls arent dogs that are more dangerous than others; all dogs are possibly dangerous,” Craig Sauve, an official, said.Valeries decision is celebrated by people in Montreal. It shows Montreal is a welcoming city for pet owners.()42. After knowing about the new rules, how did the Montreal SPCA react?A. They were very excited.B. They fought against the rules.C. They expected to know the reason.D. They thought the rules could keep the citizens safe.()43. According to the passage, the cause of the ban was probably that _.A. people thought pit bulls were dirtyB. people thought pit bulls were dangerousC. pit bulls were unpopular among the localsD. pit bulls were connected with some serious diseases()44. Which of the following shows Craig Sauves opinion?A. Pit bulls shouldnt be treated differently.B. All dogs shouldnt be allowed to go outside.C. Dog owners should be responsible for their dogs bites.D. Measures should be taken to stop dogs from biting people.()45. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Montreal Is Ending Its Ban on Pit Bulls.B. Montreal Considers Dogs Dangerous to People.C. Montreal Is to Set Strict Rules on Keeping Pit Bulls.D. Montreal Becomes a Welcoming City for Pet Owners.第二卷 非选择题(25分)IV.语法填空：用所给单词的适当形式填空，未提供单词的根据上下文填入适当的词。(共10小题，每小题1分)Last winter holiday, I worked as a cashier (收银员) at a restaurant.
