15、heir fossils arePeter Dodson of the University of Pennsylvania and Steve Wang of Swarthmore College estimate that 71 percent of all dinosaur genera（种类）groups of dinosaur specieshave yet to be discovered“Its a safe bet that a child born today could expect a very fruitful career in dinosaur paleontolo

18、Fossilization itself is a rare event，they note，and as many as half of the dinosaur genera that ever existed may have left no remains“I would never suggest that this predictionhowever statistically（统计上地）soundis the final word on dinosaur diversity，“Dodson added”My intention is to fuel the discussion
19、using thefacts at hand，and this is the best estimate we can make with the data available”56The best title for the passage would be_AMuch more dinosaur once lived on the earth BGood news for dinosaur fansCA very fruitful career in dinosaur paleontology DDinosaurs remain to be discovered57Who made the

23、 conclusion drawn by Dodson is not exactly rightDDodson will continue his research work on dinosaur diversityBThere are two types of people in the worldAlthough they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life，one becomes happy；the other becomes unhappyThis arisesfrom the diffe
24、rent ways in which they consider things，persons，events and the resulting effects upon their mindsPeople who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things：the pleasant parts of conversation，the well prepared dishes，the goodness of the wine，and the fine weatherThey enjoy all the che
25、erful thingsThose, who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the oppositethingsTherefore，they are continually dissatisfiedBy their remarks，they sour the pleasure ofsociety, offend（hurt）many people，and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is per
26、haps taken up by imitation（仿效）It grows into a habit， unknown to its possessorsThe habit may be strong，but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastesI hope this little warning may be of service to them，and help them change this habitAlthough in fact i
27、t is chiefly an act of the imagination，it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luckThose people offend many others；nobody loves them，and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respectIf they bring on themselves public objections，no one will def
28、end or excuse them，and many will join to criticize their wrong doingsThese should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing，without worrying needlessly about themselves and othersIf they do not，it will be good for othersto avoid any contact（联系）with themOtherwise，it car be disagreeab

30、of certain things62The underlined phrase “sour the pleasure of society in the second paragraph means“_”Ahave a good taste with social lifeBmake others unhappyCtend to scold others openlyDenjoy the pleasure of life63We can conclude from the passage that_Awe should pity all such unhappy peopleBsuch un
31、happy people are dangerous to social lifeCpeople call get rid of the habit of unhappinessDunhappy people can not understand happy persons64If such unhappy person insists on keeping the habit，the author suggests people should_Aprevent any communication with themBshow no respect and politeness to them
32、Cpersuade them to recognize the bad effectsDquarrel with them until they realize the mistakes 65According to the passage，the writer prefers to communicate with_Apeople who ale happyBpeople who are unhappyCA and BDNone of themCEver since Stephanies 13th birthday we have been receiving comments from o
33、ther adults expressing their sympathies because our daughter is now a teenagerWeve heard everything from，“Sure shes a good kid，but just wait，now that shes teenager”to the ever inspiring，“Well，all kids are rotten when they are teenagers，just try to go through it the best way you can”Whats more upsett
34、ing is that many of these insensitive adults feel the need to share their negative predictions well within the hearing of both our daughtersI know that teenagers can be moody（闷闷不乐）and difficult at times，but Im 38 and I can also be difficult and moodyWe worry about the future and want todays kids to
35、know that we carefor them and that there are opportunities that wait for themHowever, at the very point they set out on that journey toward adulthood we stand there watching them disapprovingly（不赞成），just waiting for them to make mistake“just like we knew they would”We tell them to respect themselves
36、 and to say no to drugs，yet we fail to set a positive example by treating them with kindness and consideration，demonstrating（示范）our respect for themI have，at times been guilty of this behavior but am now realizing that the more I see each person as a person，the more I am pleasantly surprised in some
37、 way or another. For example，a few weeks ago my husband and I were having dinner at our favorite restaurant and two teenage boys came in and sat down right beside USI must admit that my first thought was，“perfect，there goes our quiet, peaceful dinner”I was so wrong! These young men were well behaved
38、quiet and left a nice tip for the waitressOnce I looked beyond the jeans so loose they were practically falling off and the multi-colored hair, I saw what fine people these kids wereMany of the people who，perhaps unknowingly, treat teens with disrespect are unhappy aboutthe fact that pop singers and
39、 sports stars are our childrens heroes. I feel that unless We give them something better to go after, we really shouldnt complain66When their children reach their teens，parents usually expect_Atrouble Bsympathy Ccongratulations Dinspiring comments67In the authors opinion，the trouble with parents is
40、that_Athey are too watchful of their teenage childrenBthey are too concerned about their childrens futureCthey fail to treat teenagers with enough kindness and respectDthey speak ill of their children within their hearing68When two teenagers came into the restaurant and sat beside the author, her fi
41、rst thought was that_Athey were wrong to have chosen this restaurant for dinnerBsomething interesting was going to happen over dinnerCher quiet dinner with her husband would be ruinedDshe and her husband were going to have a pleasant surprise69What does the author think of the two teenage boys?AThey
42、 may become nice people if they are willing to change their lifestyleBThey are typical of teenagers who wear ill-fitting clothes and dye their hairCTheyre fine young men despite their loose jeans and multi-colored hairDThey will respect you if you respect them70What is the main idea of the last para
43、graph?AThere is nothing wrong with teenagers admiring pop singers and sports startsBIf our children admire pop singers and sports starts，it is the parents who are to blameCPop singers and sports stars should not be heroes of our childrenDParents should set a good example for their children to follow
44、DPeople often talk as if shyness is a disease or mental condition that call be curedI prefer to think of it as an emotional disabilityIts something we are born with and something we carry with us in our entire livesThere are too many people，however, who seem to be determined to findsome way of doing
45、 away with their shynessIn my opinionits a waste of timeI dont mean hat we should do nothing about it；quite the contrary, I think we need to separate the basic fact of shyness from our ability to take part in a social environmentLook at one of the most famous shy people of them all, Johnny CarsonThi
46、s man is painfullyshy, yet for decades he made a living talking and associating（交往）with different people every night，in front of a national audienceCarson has never done away with his shyness，but he hassuccessfully found a way to deal with it to the extent that he could be，not just a talk show host，
47、but a legend（传奇）among talk show hostsLook also at Sally Fields，who has recently admittedher problem with shynessThis is a woman who has appeared in many filmsTV shows and interviews，yet in her early years she was so shy that she turned down a lunch invitation from JANE Fonda because she was terribly
48、 afraid of meeting herI guess that our shyness is there because each of us is born with some insecurity（不安全感） and this insecurity prevents us from reaching out to others the way people with a more open personality doAs we grow up and become adults，we allow our social skills to grow and developBut we
49、 are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul71In the authors view, shyness can be explained as_Aa disease that can be easily curedBa not very normal mental conditionCan emotional disabilityDsomething we pick up after birth72The autho
50、r believes its a waste of time to_Adevelop a healthy personality Btalk with as many people as possibleCstudy where shyness comes from Dlook for ways to do away with ones shyness73Which of the following is TRUE of Johnny Carson?AHe dared to speak in front of a national audienceBHe did away with his s
51、hyness carefullyCHe was described as a hero in some legend booksDHe failed to become a good talk show host74The passage tells us that Sally Fields was_Aproud all the timeBimpolite when youngCshy in her early yearsDclose to Jane Fonda75The author thinks that our shyness is there because_Awe are not o
