At a zoo in Germany, an unusual friendship developed 1a cat and a bear.No one is quite sure how the friendship first began. One

10、 day, some 2(worker) in the zoo noticed a black cat was in the bears cage(笼子), and the two animals were playing together peacefully. They were surprised 3well the small cat seemed to get along with the large bear. The bear keeper allowed the cat to stay with the bear. And later the pair and their un

13、metimes, you might not finish drinking your glass of water before you go to bed. You might want to drink it the next morning. But have you ever wondered if it is still safe to drink?“If you have clean water in a clean glass, youre fine to drink it for a day or two,” Kellogg Schwab from the Johns Hop

14、kins University Water Institute in the US told Time.But you may find that it tastes strange. Thats because after about 12 hours, the carbon dioxide in the air reacts with the water in your glass, slightly lowering its pH level.Also, there might be more microorganisms in your water if you leave it ou

15、t overnight. Microorganisms grow more quickly at room temperature. These microorganisms can stick to your glass. They can make you get sick more easily. But as long as you clean your glasses very often, this will not be a problem.In countries like the US and UK, people often drink water directly fro

16、m the tap . This is OK however, tap water cannot be stored for a long time. Most experts say that tap water has a shelf life of six months, according to Zane Satterfield from West Virginia University, US. After six months, there is less chlorine in the water and bacteria start to grow. Youd better n

17、ot drink the water otherwise you may get sick.What about plastic water bottles? Schwab said people should be careful with them. If you leave a bottle of water under the sun or in a car for a long period of time, the plastic produces a chemical called BPAThis chemical can cause heart disease and canc

20、 not a right way to leave a bottle of water under the sun for a long time.CMany people drink water directly from the tap because of no bacteria in the running water.DKellogg Schwab advised us to drink clean water in a clean glass for a day or two.B14、The Amazing BrainSleep. Its something we spend ab

21、out a third of our lives doing, but do any of us really understand what its all about?We all know based on our own experience that when we sleep, it clears our minds, and when we dont sleep, it leaves our minds murky (昏沉沉的). But when we still havent understood why sleep has this amazing function for

22、 the mind.Recently biologists have found that sleep may actually be a kind of design solution to some of the brains most basic needs, the way that brain meets the high demands and the narrow margins (范围) that set it apart from all the other organs (器官) of the body. The brain has a large pool of clea

23、n, clear fluid (流体) called cerebrospinal fluid. Biologists call it the CSF. The CSF fills the space that surrounds the brain, and wastes from inside the brain make their way out to the CSF, which gets the waste into the blood. What was surprising to them was that the fluid on the outside of the brai

24、n didnt stay on the outside. Instead, the CSF goes into and through the brain along the outsides of the blood vessels (血管), it was actually helping to clear away and clean the waste from the spaces between the brains cells (细胞). This only happens in the sleeping brain.Recent research suggests that w

25、hats happening is that when the brain is awake and is at its most busy, it puts off clearing away the waste from the spaces between its cells until later. When we go to sleep, it gets into a kind of cleaning mode to clear away the waste from the spaces between its cells.We go to sleep every single n

26、ight, but our brains never rest. While our body is still and our mind is off walking in dreams somewhere. Like our housework, its dirty and a thankless job, but its also important. In your house, if you stop cleaning your kitchen for a month, your home will become completely unlivable very quickly.

27、But in he brain, the situation is much more serious because when it comes to cleaning the brain, it is the very health and function of the mind and the body thats at stake. That is why understanding these very basic housekeeping functions of the brain today may prevent and treat diseases of the mind

28、 tomorrow.1What does the underlined phrase “at stake” in the last paragraph mean?Ain a healthy situationBin a dangerous situationCin an amazing situationDin an unlivable situation2What can we learn from the passage?ASleeping makes our brain feel murky.BThe CSF can clean the waste in our brain.COur b

29、rain can clean the waste at any time.DSleeping makes our brain have a good rest.3What is the main purpose of writing this passage?ATo teach us how to have a good sleep.BTo show the new research of our brain.CTo introduce how CSF works in our brain.DTo tell us the importance of sleeping.C15、Milk is t

30、he most complete food in the world. It has many things that we need to help us grow. It can give us energy and good health. Milk is a food enjoyed by people of all ages as we can easilydigestit.Milk is produced by all mother animals to feed their babies after they are born. Some such as cows produce

31、 more milk than their young ones need, so the extra milk is used by people. Nowadays, baby cows are often taught to eat solid food earlier, so that we can use most of the cows milk. A cow can produce as much as 45 liters of milk a day. She will give good milk if she is fed on rich grass. Many produc

32、ts can be made from cows milk. The simplest is cream, which is made from the fat of the milk. Butter is made from cream. Cream is also used for making cakes and other foods. Another common milk product is cheese. Cows milk can be also turned into powdered milk.In countries where cows are not raised,

33、 people get milk from other animals. The buffalo gives milk to the people of India. In China, Iran and Turkey, a large number of sheep and goats are kept for their milk. And many Arabs drink camels milk. For babies, however, the best of all is their mothers milk which is given to them during their f

34、irst few months of life.1People need milk because it can .Amake us fat and cleverBmake us very richCgive us healthy thingsDhelp us keep young2The second paragraph tells us that people can get more milk if .Athe cows are fed on rich grassBthe baby cows eat nothing solidCthe mother cows eat solid food

35、Dthe baby cows are fed with less milk3The underlined word “digest” in the passage means “ “.A制作 B消化C遗漏 D满足4From the passage, we can learn that .Acows can also produce cheese for peopleBcakes can be made with the powdered milkCsheep and camels provide people with milk tooDmilk can make people not onl

37、hs.D16、A small, white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree and it has been there for the past ten years or so.It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmasoh, not the true meaning of Christmas. Overspending was one thing, but compared to the difficult experience of choosi

38、ng giftsrunning around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and a pair of gloves for Grandma,spending money is nothing. I felt too tired to think of any special gifts.Knowing Justin felt the same way, I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for

39、something special just for Justin. The inspiration came in an unusual way.Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling （摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team sponsored (赞助) by an inner-city church. These youngsters, dre

40、ssed in such worn-out shoes that shoe strings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, while our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes.As the match began, I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets (头盔) to protect their ears.

41、 Well, our boys ended up defeating them. We took every weight class.Justin, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, “I wish just one of them could have won,” he said. “They have a lot potential (潜力) , but losing like this could take the heart out of them.” Justin loved kidsall kids, and he knew them

42、, having coached little league football and baseball. Thats when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes. I sent them to inner-city church without leaving my name.On Christmas Eve, I placed the en

43、velope on the tree, the note inside telling Justin what I had done and that was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and since then the envelope has become the highlight of our Christmas.1Justin hated Christmas because _.Ahe didnt enjoy receiving giftsBhe had

44、 a hard time choosing giftsChe spent too much money buying giftsDhe disliked putting gifts under the Christmas tree2We know from the passage that the team sponsored by inner-city church_.Awere well dressed Bpaid no attention to safetyCfeared Kevins team Dcouldnt afford a helmet3How did Justin feel a

45、bout the teams failure ?AUpset BAngry CHopeless DShameful4Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?AThe Church Gift BA Special NoteCThe White Envelope DA Christmas CardE17、Elephants losing tusksPeople killing elephants for their tusks has long been a problem worldwide. Although l

46、aws have been introduced to ban the selling of tusks, they have not been enough to save the elephants.But the giant animals have now “developed” their own solution to stay safe from hunters-by not growing tusks at all.Scientists found that among female African elephants, as many as 98 percent of the

47、m now have no tusks, reported The Independent newspaper. The number was 15 percent in 1998 and only 1 percent in 1930, according to the BBCBut this solution has less been developed by elephants themselves, and more by evolution.Evolution is all about natural selection（选择）. When an environment change

48、s, for example, animals and plants that can deal with the change will stay alive while others wont. And for elephants, the change came when hunters started killing them for their tusks. As a result, elephants with big tusks couldnt stay alive because hunters wanted to shoot them. Those born with tus

49、ks managed to stay alive and give their “tuskless” genes（基因）to their babies. As a result, more and more elephants are now being born without tusks.But this solution, as effective（有效地）as it might be, is a high price to pay for elephants. Tusks are important and play a number of roles, especially for

50、male elephants, including fighting with other males, lifting and digging things up.This is why scientists hope there can be other ways to protect elephants against hunters. They believe that when they are less likely to be killed , elephants will be able to grow tusks again.To David Cowdrey, head of

51、 Policy and Campaigns at the International Found for Animal Welfare UK, however, this is not very likely to happen in the near future.“Unfortunately, it comes down to the markets,” he told The Guardian. “As long as people will pay high prices for products that come from endangered animal and plants,

52、 theyre going to have price on them and that causes the hunting.”1Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AElephants learned to lift and dig things up without tusks.BElephants chose not to grow tusks because of their dangerous environment.CElephants with no tusks had a greater chance

53、 of passing down their genes.DA tuskless elephant gives birth to more baby elephants than an elephant with big tusks.2The underlined word “evolution” in paragraph 4 means “_” ?Agradual change Bsudden development Ccomplete loss Drapid growth3What can you learn from the last two paragraphs?AWe should

54、work out a better solution to protect elephants.BPeople should pay lower prices for products made with elephant tusks.CElephants living environments will soon be improved.DThe key to elephant protection is stopping the trade in tusk products.F18、Success does not belong to a select group of individua

55、ls(个人). Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success.Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire you have nothing. Before you can run with desire,

56、 your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting.Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You cant have a best seller, if you have never written a book. You cant get your dream job, if youre afraid to turn in an application. Showing up doesnt guarantee(保证) success, but

57、 if you dont show up, you wont succeed.Fail. Unless youre willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success wont happen. To have success you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple for

58、mula（公式）for success is to double your rate of failure (失败). So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.Work Harder._Success is not about doing what the common person cant do. Its about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deepe

59、r level, its about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. Its the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success.Enjoy the Journey. Success is a journey, not a destination(终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is

60、the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey.Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what youve got.” You have to changeyou will change, you will succeed.1Which of the following is NOT mentioned in achieving success?AGood education. BWorking hard.CStron
