The few people walking along that street were hurrying, trying to keep warm. At the door of the shop stood the man who had come a thousand miles to meet a friend, Jimmy Wells. Twenty years ago, they agreed to meet here tonight. Such a meeting could not be certain. But he waited.About twenty minutes he waited, and then a tall man in a long coat came hurrying across the street. He went directly to the waiting man.“Is that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully.“Is that you, Jimmy Wells?” cried Bob.The new man took Bobs hands in his. “Its Bob! It surely is. I was certain I would find you here if you were still alive. Twenty years is a long time. The old restaurant is gone, Bob. I wish it were here, so that we could have another dinner in it. Has the West been good to you?”“It gave me everything I asked for. Youve changed, Jimmy. I never thought you were so tall.”“Oh, I grew a little after I was twenty.”“Are you doing well in New York, Jimmy?”“Well enough. I work for the city. Come on, Bob. Well go to a place I know, and have a good long talk about old times.”The two men started along the street, arm in arm. Bob, the man from the West, was beginning to tell the story of his life. The other, with his coat up to his ears, listened with interest.At the corner stood a shop bright with electric lights. When they came near, each turned to look at the others face.The man from the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away. “Youre not Jimmy Wells,” he said. “Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change the shape of a mans nose.”“It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one,” said the tall man. “Youve been under arrest for ten minutes, Bob. Chicago policemen thought you might be coming to New York. They told us to watch for you. Are you coming with me quietly? Thats wise. But first here is something I was asked to give you.

Our guide informed us that this was a Baobab tree and that they could live for hundreds of yearsCompared with this tree, the elephant just looked like dwarfs (much smaller plants or animals)! We were informed that Tarangire was one of the best National Parks in Africa to see so many Baobab treesAs we continued our drive through the park, we finally reached a watering holeOur guide warned us that there were lions all around usIt took us all a while to find them, but there they were! Most of them are resting in the shade under bushes, but there was one that was drinking from the watering hole directly in front of usWe then noticed just to our right, there were a couple of fresh zebra bodies it seemed as if the lions which were resting had killed them! We were unlucky not to have seen the kill, as our guide had mentioned that the zebra bodies were fresh and the kill had happened within the last hourOur final big sighting was one that none of us were expecting to see, even our guide! We stopped at a place where there were quite a many cars, with a sleeping leopard（美洲豹）there!

What does the passage possibly tell us?AA Page from Tanzania Tourist Diary.BAnimals and Plants in Tarangire Park.CA Visit to Tarangire National Park.DProtecting Animals and Environment.In the science film Sunshine, an astronaut named Mace must leave his spacecraft without a protective suit for 15 seconds. He makes it through with the damage(损害) as a result of being very cold. Have you ever wondered what might happen to your body in space without a spacesuit?On Earth, our atmosphere (air) protects us from the suns harmful UV rays, controls temperatures and also keeps a nice atmosphere pressure. The vacuum (真空) of space, however, is full of dangers.One of the serious dangers Mace might face in outer space is ebullism (体液沸腾). The pressure in the vacuum of space is so low that the boiling point of the fluids (液体) in your body drops below the bodys normal temperature (37), which results in the formation of gas bubbles in your fluids that can really make you feel aching.Another serious danger is the lack of oxygen. After around 15 seconds, your body would have used up all pf the oxygen in your body and youd lose consciousness (意识). Some of you may be thinking “But I can hold my breath for minutes!?” The situation in space is a little different than here on Earth because of the lack of outside pressure, and if you held your breath in space without a suit youd be in a big trouble. This is because any remaining air would rapidly enlarge, breaking the lungs.After losing consciousness, youll probably last a couple of minutes at most before you die. Of course, theres all that awful UV from the Sun which is going to give you serious sun burn, likely leading to cancer.Is little damage for coldness a reasonable result of Sunshines suit less spacewalk? Actually its extremely cold in space, but astronauts wouldnt immediately freeze because heat leaves the body very slowly in a vacuum. Therefore, the cold wouldnt cause Mace too much harm in just 15 seconds, even if he faced the very lowest temperatures in space. The more likely damage would be caused from the enlargement and breaking of the skins small blood vessels (血管).Anyway, obviously its never a good idea to go into space without some kind of protection. But dont lose hope because you are probably saved with timely help before you die, so keep up!14 . Where can we read the passage?AIn a magazine.BIn a diary.CIn a movie poster.DIn a how-to book.15 . What does the writer think of the air or the vacuum?AThe vacuum helps astronauts walking and Waving in space.BThe air supplies living protection and temperature control.CThe air brings people serious problems sometimes on Earth.DThe pressure of vacuum in space increases the boiling point.16 . What is the purpose of writing this passage?ATo encourage readers to watch the film Sunshine.BTo show the readers many serious air problems.CTo discuss the causes of cancer from the sunburn.DTo explain the unreasonable damage in the film.17 . What is the best title of the passage?AKeep Alive in SpaceBWalking Freely in SpaceCWithout a SpacesuitDColdness Damage in Space三、根据音标写单词根据音标写出下列单词。18 . Lets keep the_ si:krt between us.19 .
