Lightning strikes are the second most common cause
15、of deaths during natural disasters in the US. The first is floods. Around 400 people nationwide are struck by lightning each year, and of those, 70 people die. That is, more people are killed by lightning than by tornadoes and hurricanes. Because lightning kills only one or two people at a time, its
16、 danger does not receive as much attention as other disasters. If you hear the thunder, you are in danger from lightning, said Rocky Lopes, a disaster educator at the American Red Cross. Thunder means that lightning is close enough to hit you at any time, so you should move indoors immediately and s
17、tay there until the storm has ended. The most important thing to remember is to seek shelter, Lopes said. Summer is the peak time for lightning storms, so when lightning strikes across the sky, remember these safety tips: Stop working, fishing, swimming or playing in open fields. Do not stand under
18、a tree. Get off bicycle and motorcycles. Crouch down (蹲下) if there is no shelter. Avoid open spaces, wire fences, metal objects and electrical objects such as hair driers. 26. In the US, _ is the most common cause of deaths during natural disasters. A. lightning B. tornadoes C. hurricanes D. floods2
19、7. Of the people who are struck by lightning every year in the US, about _ people are lucky enough to survive. A. 400 B. 70 C. 330 D. 528. If you hear the thunder, the most important thing you should do is to _. A. stand still in the open spaces B. find shelter to hide in C. stand under the tree D.
20、stop working in the fields29. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Floods are the most common cause of deaths in the US. B. Less than 70 people are killed by tornadoes and hurricanes each year in the US. C. People dont pay as much attention to the danger of hurricanes as that of floods. D. If you
21、hear the thunder, you should move indoors right away.30. Which of the following is the best title? A. The Danger of Lightning B. Some Safety Tips against Floods C. How Lightning Happens D. 5 People Killed by Lightning in NepalB Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals h
22、ave long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them. Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the co
23、untryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it. People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow stric
24、t codes of behaviour. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy. It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is cruel, has
25、risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of conflict between hunters and hunt saboteurs (怠工者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with (妨碍) the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the foxs smell, which the d
26、ogs follow. Noisy conflicts between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labor Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is try
27、ing to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain. 31. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes _. A. for relaxation B. in the interests of the farme
28、rs C. to limit the fox population D. to show off their wealth32. What is special about fox hunting in Britain? A. It involves the use of a deadly poison. B. It is a costly event which rarely occurs. C. The hunters have set rules to follow. D. The hunters have to go through strict training.33. Fox hu
29、nting opponents often interfere in the game _. A. by resorting to violence B. by confusing the fox hunters C. by taking legal action D. by demonstrating on the scene34. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to _. A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxes B. forbid hunting foxes with dogs C.
30、 stop hunting wild animals in the countryside D. prevent large-scale fox hunting35. It can be inferred from the passage that _. A. killing foxes with poison is illegal B. limiting the fox population is unnecessary C. hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violent D. fox-hunting often leads
31、to conflicts between the poor and the richC When 7-year-old Warren Buffett said,“I will be the richest man one day,” his friends made fun of his “daydreaming”. But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money by selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks. The
32、American had already earned $9,000 (equal to $90,000 today) by the time he graduated from high school. And this month the 78-year-old man, who earned his fortune by making a lot of sound investment in the stock market, took the place of Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, as the worlds richest man. Gates
33、 worth declined $1.5 billion to $55.5 billion in 33 days after the recent financial storm, according to Forbes Magazine. Buffett, the only son of a stockbroker, was ready to think outside the box to develop his business from a very early age. At 8, he went to golf courses collecting and selling the
34、used balls. At 11 when he sold soda pop door-to-door with a friend, the pair collected lids on streets to judge which flavor was the most popular. As a paper boy during high school, Buffett delivered two competitor papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still
35、 make a profit from the other. With his paper delivery savings, Buffett bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collected rent. Young Buffett stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only $5. The experience taught him one of the virtues in investing, patience. After graduating from univer
36、sity, Buffett started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnings and money from friends. He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time. By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-Cola, Buffett has become r
37、ich. “Learning is important to Buffetts success. He is a learning machine who can spend his entire day reading. He keeps learning from books, street smarts and investigation, from both success and failure. In this way, he over-achieved his aptitude (能力).” said Charlie Munger, his longtime business p
38、artner. 36. The passage is mainly about _.A. why Buffett took the place of Bill Gates as the worlds richest manB. what effect Buffetts childhood experiences had on his successC. how Buffett earned his fortune and achieved his aptitudeD. what Buffett dreamt about when he was a child37. Which of the f
39、ollowing is true about Buffett?A. His worth is more than $ 55.5 billion now.B. He is next to Bill Gates in wealth at the present time.C He achieved great success on stepping into the stock market.D He bought 162,000 square meters of farmland by selling soda pop.38. How did Buffett behave at the stoc
40、k market?A. He often prefers some inexpensive stocks.B. He will buy the stock whose price is lower than its value.C. He always borrows money from his friends to buy stocks.D. He will sell the stock if its price doesnt go up.39. Which is the main factor that determines Buffetts success?A. His educati
41、on. B. His family background.C. His desire to learn. D. His cooperation with his partner.40. What can we infer from the passage?A. Buffett is an immediate success in the stock market.B. Buffett and Gates are business partners.C. His father helped him a lot in his business.D. Buffett has a good sense
42、 of business.DQuit while youre ahead I am one of those people who are terrible at saying no. I take on too many projects at once, and spend too much of my time doing things Id rather not be doing. I get stuff done, but its not always the best I can do, or the best way I could spend my time. Thats wh
43、y my newest goal, both as a professional and a person, is to be a quitter. Being a quitter isnt being someone who gives up, who doesnt see important things through to the end. I aspire (渴望) to be the opposite of that. The quitter I want to be is someone who gets out when theres no value in what hes
44、doing, or when that value comes at the expense of something more important. A friend of mine once told me: I knew I was an adult when I could stop reading a book, even after getting 500 pages into it. Odd though it sounds, we all tend to do this. We get involved in something, realize we dont want to
45、 be a part of it, but keep on going. We say Well, Ive already invested so much time in this, I might as well stick it out. I propose the opposite: quit as often as possible, regardless of project status or time invested. If youre reading a book, and dont like it, stop reading. Cut your losses, reali
46、ze that the smartest thing to do is to stop before your losses grow even more, and quit. Instead of reading an entire book you hate, read half of a bad one and half of a good one. Isnt that a better use of your time? Step back for a second. Lets learn how to say no at the beginning, or in the middle
47、, and free up more of our time to do the things wed like to be doing, and the things actually worth doing. Saying no is hard, and admitting a mistaken yes is even harder. Both if we do both, well start to make sure that were spending our time creating value, rather than increasing our losses. Lets b
48、e quitters together.41. The author wants to be a quitter, because he _. A. wishes to have more time for relaxation B. hopes to improve his personality C. expects to make more efficient use of his time D. has found it hard to do several things at one time42. The underlined phrase at the expense of in
49、 paragraph 3 probably means _. A. at the end of B. at the cost of C. at the age of D. at the back of 43. In what circumstances does the author suggest quitting is a good idea? A. When you know a task cannot be finished. B. When you feel tired and need a rest. C. When you meet with difficulties along
50、 the way. D. When you realize what you are doing is not worth the time.44. If you stop reading a book after many pages, the author might think that _. A. you are wise to cut your losses B. its a pity that you have wasted so much time C. you should finish a book that you have started D. you should re

A. learn to say no B. live your life to the fullest C. create more value D. stop doing many things at once第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。 首先阅读以下寻物启事A.

I didnt know why, so I would stare at her hands whenever I had nothing to do. Then I found that they were busy doing cleaning,
80、washing, cooking, and helping others. I never knew such short small and fat hands could do so many things. Holding her hands, I asked mum why we couldnt put the palms upwards. She told me it meant we should never depend on others for help. Instead, we should try to solve problems ourselves or make our own bread. But if others needed help, we should give our hands at the fist second. I forever bear in mind the lesson she taught me. To show my gratitude to her, I will spare no effort to work harder so that she can have a better life in the future.
