Before long, she was disappointed and unable to find a job, so she took to the streets to do everything she could to 37 money. Many years passed by, her f

26、40分）阅读下列五篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。ARunning like the wind, roaring (咆哮) like thunder, tigers have long been feared and respected as a king of the animal world. 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 t
27、eam 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 1950s, there were over 4000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country. But due to the destruction of their natural h
28、abitat and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the worlds top ten most endangered species.Sixtysix 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 kill
29、ing. 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 programme to send five to ten young tigers to South Africa. Four of t
30、hem have already arrived. Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts(本能) 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
31、the tigers to learn in”, said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and Development Center. “We tried in Fujian Province, but it was not successful as there was not a complete ecochain(生物链) and there was a lack of space.”The tigers should return to China in 2007 when the reservat
32、ions in Fujian are ready.56.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 ecochain.C. Because there is no space for it.D .Because uncontrolled hunting has de
33、stroyed its natural living conditions.57.How is the programme of sending several tigers to South Africa getting on?A. Its effect still remains to be seen.B. Two tigers can already compete with their wild cousins.C. Some of the tigers are already on the road to recovering their natural skills.D. The
34、tigers should be able to recover their instincts completely by 2007.58.By saying “but they are nothing like their wild cousins”, the writer means that_.A. they are no longer feared by other wild animalsB. they dont know how to hunt or killC. a complete change has resulted in the species because of b
35、reedingD. to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task59.What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa?A. To help the tigers recover their ability to live in the wild.B. To provide them with a better environment.C. To get the tigers to go on a tour.D. To find a complete
36、ecochain for them.BIf you were walking around a supermarket and saw a woman with a shaved head, a ring through her nose, a tattoo（纹身）design on her arm and she has a small child in her shoppingtrolley, what would your opinion be? Do you think this kind of body decoration is attractive or ugly? Differ
37、ent people have different ideas. The following are some examples of body decoration from around the world.In many parts ofAfrica, it is thought that an attractive girl should have really shinny skin.On Bali, a little island inIndonesia, they believe that a beautiful woman or handsome man must have p
38、erfectly straight, flat teeth. The Balinese believe that teeth with pointed edges make you look like an ugly wild animal. So when a girl or boy becomes a teenager, he or she is taken to a special person in their village who will file off teeth points to make them smooth and flat. There is no anesthe
39、tic（麻药）and this tooth filing is really painful. It is a kind of test. If you can stand it without screaming or crying too much, then you are thought ready to become an adult.InMyanmar, there is a small group of people who are called the “Papaung”. They believe that a woman can only be really beautif
40、ul if she has a long neck. I mean a VERY long neck. Now you might think that you are either born with a long or short neck and that theres nothing whatever you can do about it. But you would be wrong! At around the age of 5, a Papaung girl has heavy metal rings fitted around her neck, tightly betwee
41、n the chin and shoulders. Each year more rings are added and very, very slowly their weight pushes the shoulders down, in this way making the neck look longer. A Papaung woman will wear her neck rings all her life, never once taking them off.So now Im sure you will all agree that different people ha
42、ve different ideas about what is beautiful.60. What is mainly talked about in paragraph one?A. Womens design. B. Beautiful body decoration.C. Body decoration. D. Attractive decoration.61. What does the underlined word “trolley” mean?A. schoolbagB. luggageC. basket D. shopping cart 62. OnBali, it is
43、believed that _.A. a person with straight, flat teeth looks uglyB. a person with sharp teeth looks uglyC. a teenagers teeth points must be filed off with anestheticD. no one will scream or cry when having his teeth points filed off63. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Many people think that a wo
44、man with a ring through nose is neither attractive nor ugly. B. Most African people think that a girl with shinny skin is beautiful.C. It is thought that a beautiful woman should have straight, flat teeth onBali.D. Some people think it beautiful that a woman has a long neck inMyanmar. C Owning a sma
45、rtphone may not be as smart as you think. It may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and snap photos wherever you arebut it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems. A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the all-singing, all-dancing mobilephone adds as much as
46、two hours to your working day. Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles. The study by technology retailer Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but a further two hours is spen
47、t responding to or sending work emails, or making work calls. More than 90 percent of office workers have email-enabled phones, with a third accessing them more than 20 times a day. Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some worker
48、s confess they are on call almost 24 hours a day, with nine out of ten saying they make work emails and calls outside their normal working hours. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 am and 7 am, with more than a third checking their first emails in this period, and a quarter chec
49、king them between 11 pm and midnight. Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability to access literally millions of apps, keep in contact via social networks and take photos and video as well as text and call has made smartphones invaluable for many people. However, there are dra
50、wbacks. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smartphones mean that people literally cannot get away from work. The more constantly in contact we become , the more is expected of us in a work capacity(容量).”64. What can we conclude from the text? A
51、. All that glitters is not gold B. It never rains but pours C. Every coins has two sides D. Its no good crying over spilt milk 65. The underlined word “accessing” in the third paragraph can be replaced by “_”. A calling B. reaching C. getting D. using66. Which of the following is true according to t
52、he text? A. The average UK working time is between nine and twelve hours B. Nine- tenths spent over three hours checking work emails C. One-fourth check their first mail between 11 pm and midnight. D. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 am and 8 am.67. Whats the main idea of the

At the age of six months she was acquired, along wi
61、th her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.”For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashleys wife tried to strike Mumbets sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she
62、left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued(起诉) for her freedom. While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitu
63、tion said that all people were free and equal, then she thought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom- the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution.Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employ
64、ee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829, but her legacy lived on in her many descendants(后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights. Mumbets t

69、t ice was still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The ice trade grew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in places like hotels and hospitals, and by some forwardlooking city businessmen in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butter. After the Civil War (1861186
70、5 ), it also came into household use. Even before 1880, half of the ice sold in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and onethird of that sold in Boston and Chicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible because a new household convenience, the icebox, early form of the mode
71、rn refrigerator，had been invented. Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early nineteenth century, people only had some simple and basic knowledge of the physics of heat. The common idea that the best icebox was one that prevented the ice from melting was of cour
72、se mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that performed the cooling. Early efforts to save ice included wrapping up the ice in blankets, which kept the ice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth century did inventors achieve the delicate balance needed for an efficient ic
73、ebox. But as early as 1803, a Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been in the correct direction. He owned a farm and used an icebox of his own design for the transportation of his butter to a market in the village of Georgetown. And there he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting good
74、s of his competitors to pay a higher price for his butter, still fresh and hard in neat, onepound bricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that farmers would no longer have to travel to market at night in order to keep their produce cool.As a result，Moore managed to earn a large sum
75、 of money.The Origin of RefrigeratorsHistory of the icebox*By the mid19th century the 76._ that ice had on American citizens life was limited mainly to the diet.*When cities grew, the ice 77._ increased.*Forwardlooking businessmen used ice to keep meat, fish and butter78._.*After the Civil War, due
