25、or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活) if the rain is spread throughout the year. If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as t

26、iny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘 ) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with he winds and changing he shape. Most of hem are only a few feet tall, but they can g

27、row to be several hundred feet high.There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs ( 悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sa

28、nd, rain, hear and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing - very, very slowly - as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to

29、life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.56. Many plants may survive in deserts

30、 when _. A. the rain is spread out in a year B. the rain falls only in a few weeks C. there is little rain in a year D. it is dry all the year round57. Sand dunes are formed when _. A. sand piles up gradually B. there is plenty of rain in a year C. the sea has dried up over the years D. pieces of ro

31、ck get smaller58. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there is _. A. too much sand B. more sand than before C. nothing except sand D. something else besides sand 59. It can be learned from the text that in a desert _. A. There is no rainfall throughout the

32、year B. life exists in rough conditions C. all sand dunes are a few feet high D. rocks are worn away only by wind and heatBWhen I was in the third grade ,I was picked to be the princess(公主)in the school play. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappea

33、red form my head. Then my teacher told me she had written a narrators(解说员)part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didnt tell me mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.It was a lovely spring day. We could see dan

34、delions(蒲公英)popping through the grass in bunches ,as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. “I think I am going to dig up all these weeds.” she said.“Form now on, well have only roses in this garden.” “But I like dand

35、elions,” I protested.“All flowers are beautiful-even dandelions!”My mother looked at me seriously.“Yes , every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesnt it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. “and that is true of people ,too.” She added. When I realized that she had guessed my pain , I started to

36、 cry and told her the truth. “But you will be a beautiful narrator ,” she said , reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her .Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my tea

37、cher came over to me . “Your mother asked me to give this to you .” she said , handing me a dandelion . After the play, I took home the flower , laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed .60What was the season when the story happened?A. Summer. B. Autumn. C. Winter. D. S

38、pring.61.

Why did the mother suggest a walk in the garden ?A. To remove the da

39、ndelions. B. To enjoy the garden sceneC. To have a talk with her daughter D. To help her daughter with the play. 63. What is the main idea of the story?A. Everybody can find his or her own way to successB. Everybody has his or her own value in the worldC. Everybody should learn to play different rol

40、es. D. Everybody has some unforgettable memory.CGetting paid to talk about the World Cup is a great job. Im not a football commentator(评论员)，though just an English teacher in Japan.I come to Japan tow years ago, and didnt think I would stay, but Japan has that effect on you . People often end up livi

41、ng here longer than they planned. I think its best to teach in a bigger city where there are other foreigners to mix with, rather than a small town where English teachers often complain of feeling like a goldfish in a bowl. Many people choose to live in Tokyo, of course, which is good for the nightl

42、ife factor. But Id say that for general quality of living, cities of neither too large nor too small, like Sapporo where I live, are better choices. I teach English privately , which means Im my own boss . If you want to devote yourself to private teaching, its well worth doing a TEEL course first ,

43、 because your lessons will be much better for it . The problem with private teaching is finding students ; it took me a year to build up a full schedule(日程表)of private lessons, so I started out teaching in schools part-time .Most of my foreign friends here work full-time for big English conversation

44、 schools. The salary is fine to live on, but whether you can save money depends on how much going out and traveling you do here.The schools are reluctant to take time offeven teachers with tickets for the England Argentina game had trouble getting the day off.64. From the passage we know in Japan th

45、e writer likes to live in _.A. Tokyo B. a small C. a city of middle size D. a big city65. According to the writer, one had better _ first to do private teaching better.A. take a TEFL course B. decide his or her own lessonsC. find students D. build up a full schedule 66. The underlined sentence in th

46、e second paragraph implies that _.A. there are many foreigners in Japan B. Japan is good for nightlife C. they can teach English privately in JapanD. Japan has something more attractive than expected67. The underlined word “reluctant” in the passage may probably mean_A. kind B. unwilling C. free D.

47、carelessD As skies are filled with millions of migrating(迁徙)birds, European scientists say the seasonal wonder appears to be strange: The fatter the bird, the better it flies.The results of their study led to a theory opposite to a central one of aerodynamics(空气动力学),which say that the power needed t

48、o fly increased with weight.For birds, obviously, the cost of flying with heavy fat is much smaller than we used to think,. Researchers found that red knot wading birds double their normal body weight of 100 grams before making their twice-a-year nonstop flight between the British Isles and the Russ

49、ian Arctic. Distance: 5,000 kilometers.Another study in the magazine Nature measured the advantage of flying in an aerodynamic group which allows birds to save energy by flying smoothly and quietly in the lead birds air stream.Flying in groups, their heart rates were 14.5 percent lower than flying a

50、lone, according to Henri, a French scientist. The findings help explain how birds complete difficult migrations. Researchers had thought that thinner, stronger birds would have the best chance to survive.The first study suggests that building up fat to be burnt as fuel during the migration is worth

51、more than the energy it bakes to carry the additional weight.In the study, researchers said their team studied the birds flown at different body weights during 28 simulated(模拟的)flights. They forced a small amount of special water into the birds bodies so that they could measure the amount of energy

52、burnt during the flight.1. A red knot wading bird of 100 grams will probably weigh _ before making its nonstop migrating flight.A. 50 grams B. 100 grams C. 150 grams D. 200 grams2. During their migrating flight, red knot wading birds can save energy by flying _.A. separately B. alone C. in groups D.

53、 in pairs3. A _ red knot wading bird has a better chance to survive during its migrating flight.A. stronger B. weaker C. thinner D. fatter4. The best title for this passage may probably be _.A. Birds Thin Down For Journey B. Birds Fatten Up For JourneyC. How Birds Build Up Fat For Journey D. How Bir

54、ds Burn Energy For JourneyEHave you ever received a gift that was so clearly not your taste that you wondered if perhaps it had been handed to you by mistake? Worse, have you ever given a present and watched your friend look as though she had opened the wrong box? Maybe she responded with a polite“W

55、hy, thank you,” but you knew you had missed the mark. Why do presents sometimes go wrong? And what do your choices ( good and bad) reflect about your personal qualities?Choosing the right gift is an art, I believe. It calls for empathythe ability to put yourself into someone elses head and heart. We

56、re all able to do this; in fact, were born with a kind of natural empathy. After the earliest period of childhood, however, it needs to be reinforced(加强)by our parents, teachers, friends. When it isnt, were not able to understand other peoples feelings as sharply. This can show in the gifts we selec

57、t, and so can many other emotional（情感的）qualities.Think back to the presents youve given over the past year, the time and effort you put into your selection, how much you spent, you thoughts while you were shopping, and your feelings when the receiver opened the package. Keep in mind that what you ch

58、oose displays your inner world. Of course, you may express yourself differently with different friends, relatives, and other people you knowWe live in a society where exchanging presents is an important part of communication. Ignoring the tradition wont make it go away. If you really dislike such a

59、tradition, tell your friends ahead of time.1.The underlined expression“you had missed the mark” means“you had failed to _”A. make her feel better B. keep your friendshipC. receive a present in return D. get the expected effect2. Which of the following is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Natu

60、ral empathy needs to be reinforced.B. Emotional changes influence ones choice of gifts.C. Selecting the right gift is an ability people are born with.D. Choosing gifts requires one to understand the receivers.3. In the third paragraph, the author tells us that _.A. attention should be paid to the re

61、ceivers responsesB. one learns from what he did in the pastC. the choice of gifts reflects ones emotional qualitiesD. one should spend more time choosing gifts4.The best possible title for this passage is“ _”A. Ways of Choosing Gifts B. An Important TraditionC. Exchanging Presents D. Message in a Gi
