Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)If you have read the fairytale about the Italian boy Pinocchio, you will remember that everyone knew when he lied because his nose grew. But did you know that your brain can also betray(出卖) you when you tell a lie?A study released last Monday showed that the brains of people who are lying look very different from those who are telling the truth. According to the US researchers, this finding could lead to creating a more accurate lie detector.There may he separate areas in the brain involved in truth-telling and cheating that can be measured,” said Scott Faro, head of the research group.Faro and other scientists tested nine volunteers. Six of them were asked to shoot a toy gun and then lie and say they didnt do it. Three others who watched told the truth about what happened.The volunteers were connected to a special machine, which used a strong magnet to provide a real-time picture of brain activity. Clear differences were seen between the liars and the truth-tellers. A total of seven areas were active in the cheating group, but only four in the truth-telling team.“It seemed to take more brain effort to tell the lie than to tell the truth,” Faro said.The traditional lie-detector machine looks at sweat, skin, breathing and heart rate changes.Using such new technology as a lie detector would be expensive, but it might he worthwhile in some criminal cases.( )36.

Gao Yuan, a student, said when a vast sea appeared on the screen, his seat slowly went down and made him feel like he was in the ocean.There is so much at the planetarium that some of the students felts one trip was not enough. Yan Chenguang, Gaos schoolmate, made a second visit two days later. “I especially went to see the vacuum telescope which I had no tiem for before,” he said.

But last week a report said that there are no more than 30 wild tigers left in south China.This was the conclusion of a team of scientists from Chinas State Forestry Administration and the World Nature Fund.The South China tiger, also known as the Chinese tiger, is native to southern China. In the l950s, there were over 4,000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country. But due to the destruction of their natural habitat and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the worlds top ten most endangered species.Sixty-six of the big cats can be found in the cages of a dozen zoos around China. But they are nothing like their wild cousins. They have lost their natural skills such as hunting and killing. If they were set free they could not look after themselves. Breeding has damaged the quality of the species, said Pei Enle, deputy director of the Shanghai Zoo.To reintroduce the species into the wild, the country started a program to send five to ten young tigers to South Africa. Four of them have already arrived.Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts and can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base. South Africans are very experienced in reintroducing big animals to the wild. The country has very good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in, said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and DevelopmentCenter. We tried in Fujian Provinve, but it was not successful as there was not a complete eco-chain and there was a lack of space.The tigers should retl1rn to China in 2020 when the reservations in Fujian are ready.( )47. What is the main reason for the South China tiger becoming one of the worlds top ten most endangered species ?A. Because it has lost its natural instincts.B. Because there is not a complete eco-chain.C. Because there is no space for it.D. Because uncontrolled hunting has destroyed its natural living conditions.( )48. By saying hut they are nothing like their wild cousins, the writer means that_.A they are no longer feared by other wild animalB. they dont know how to hunt or killC. a complete change has resulted in the species because of breedingD. to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task( )49. What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa?A. To help the tigers recover their ability to 1ive in the wild.B. To provide them with a better environment.C. To ge
