Without zoos many of the creatures we love and admire would no longer exist. Every single day, over one hundred animal species vanish. Scientists predict that as early as 2050 one quarter of the Earths species will become extinct(绝种的).Some animals are in danger because they are hunted. Worriedly, the population of tigers has already fallen by ninety-five percent. Other species are in danger because of a lack of food. For example, there are fewer than 1300 giant pandas left in the wild.Zoos have special breeding programs to help those animals in danger. These breeding programs are proving very successful. As Irene Shapiro from Zoo and Wildlife Support says, “the Puerto Rican Parrot has grown in numbers from just thirteen to about eighty-five and the Golden Lion Tamarin Monkey, which has almost died out twenty years ago, has been reintroduced back into the wild. ”Unfortunately, not everyone understands this important role zoos play. For example, Brian Featherstone from the Anti-Zoo Forum says, “I cant believe we take animals from the wild and put them in cages for the entertainment of the public! We should view them on film or TV in their natural environment.”However, this misses the point. A zoo does more than display animals to the public. It ensures their survival. Without zoos you would not be able to see many of these animals on TV or anywhere else!55. According to the passage some people do not agree with zoos because they _.A. are too expensive to run B. put animals in dangerC. do not provide enough food D. keep animals locked up56. According to the writer, the most important function of the zoo is to _.A. make a lot of money B. entertain visitorsC. ensure animals survival D. educate the publicDEven today, a man with good manners will politely open the door for a lady, help her put on her coat when necessary and see her safely to the door of her home after a date.When a man takes a woman out for dinner, it is considered polite to help her with her chair when she gets up or sits down. On a crowded train or bus, it is altogether proper for a man to offer a woman his seat, especially if she is old or carries a baby.Even when it comes to shaking hands, ladies come first. It is considered impolite for a man to extend (伸手) his hand to a woman for a handshake upon first greeting. This remains the womans choice. If a woman does not extend her hand to the man first, then the man shouldnt offer his.Not only do ladies come first, but if a lady is the wife of the president, she is called the First Lady. Women continue to break new first categories(目录) by entering into fields of social service which were once considered only for men. America has had a first woman. Secretary of State in the person of Madeline Albright and a first woman president may not be far off in the future.It is true that the Womens Liberation Movement has put women on an equal footing with men in jobs and career opportunities. It is also true that many women today prefer to be treated the same as men in every way. Yet, with their new freedom and social equality, no woman seems to be against the rule of ladies first.57. What might be discussed before the first paragraph?A. How an impolite man behaves before a lady.B. How a lady was treated in the past.C. How a man invited a lady for dinner before.D. How women became leaders in the past.58. Which of the following is considered rude for a man according to this passage?A. To take a woman out for dinner.B. To help a lady with her chair in a restaurant.C. To offer his seat to a lady on a crowded train or bus.D. To offer his hand first when shaking hands with a lady.59. The underlined word footing in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _.A. right B. chance C. position D. feet60. What can you infer form Paragraph 4?A. Theres no woman president in the USA now.B. The presidents wife always comes first in the USA.C. Madeline Albright is a secretary of an American company.D. Women will work in the fields of social service instead of men.第二节（共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Smiling is a great way to make yourself stand out while helping your body to function better.
