19、 seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been demonstrated (证明) that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins, even though there is no difference in taste or smell bet
20、ween the two water bottles. When a fragrant (芳香的) flavor (味道;佐料) was added to the vitamins enriched fluid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it, even after the vitamins were changed to the clear water. In time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the nece
21、ssary vitamins were.In a classic experiments, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria (自助餐厅) feeding arrangement, with a wide choice of baby food before them. They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual e
22、ating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to choose a well balanced diet.So in choosing food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on whats best for them. Obviously, there is a kind of “body wisdom”, which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of ou
23、r food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long established habits. Some people eat foxes, dogs and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how many they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going around them.41In the experiment on rats, a fragrant
24、 flavor was added to the rats drinking water to .Aencourage rats to drink vitamins enriched waterBfind out rats preference in flavourCtest whether rats know which drink is good for themDdemonstrated the vitamins are tasteless42As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar
25、in that .Aboth have the wisdom to choose a balanced dietBboth prefer flavoured food and drinkCboth have the same eating patternsDboth develop a taste for the same kinds of flavours43In the classic experiment mentioned in the second paragraph, babies were .Agiven many choices of drinksBprovided with
26、various kinds of baby foodCplaced and fed in a cafeteriaDtrained to select a balanced diet44According to the passage, adults eating habits differ from those of babies because .Aadults know better than babies what kinds of food are good for their healthBadults usually cannot resist the temptation of
27、various delicious foods.Cadults eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customsDadults have more choices of food than babies in eating patternsBMy son and I were trying to sell the house we had repaired but in the barn (谷仓) there were bats and they would not leave. The barn was
28、their home. They told us so in their own way. They hung there in the barn and seemed determined to stay for the season. “Dont worry about it, Dad,” Patrick said, “they keep down the mosquitoes.”Unfortunately they also kept the buyers away. When we asked a person to sell the house for us, he refused
29、to see it because of the bats. “Bats are popular,” Patrick comforted me, “theyre ecological (生态学的).” “Isnt there a machine you can buy that produces high frequency sounds to keep bats away?” I asked. “I dont know,” said Patrick, “But I like bats, and whoever buys this house will probably like them t
30、oo.” “Probably?” I hated that word. “How many bats are there, anyway?” “I counted about 90 last night,” said Patrick, “They were dropping out from under the edge of the roof.” “You mean there are more outside?” “Theyre everywhere, Dad. But look at it this way. When the cold weather comes, theyll be
31、off to Mexico. Maybe in the spring we can keep them out. Dont worry about it,” he said for the hundredth time. “Its not a problem.”The bat expert I called was even more active than Patrick. “I think youve got a large number there,” he said in wonder, “Ive been trying to attract bats to our house for
32、 25 years. A single bat eats up his weight in mosquitoes and black flies three times every night. Youre a very lucky man.” I offered to share my luck with him. He could take them away. “Bats have a remarkable homing instinct (本能),” he said, “Theyd fly straight back even if I transported them 100 mil
33、es. Once they have settled, you cant stop them from coming back.” I was silent. Finally we managed to rent the house to a young family, who were also interested in buying it. “What about the bats?” I said to Patrick.“Oh, they love the bats,” he said. “No mosquitoes. No black flies. Its one of the th
34、ings that attracted them.” “Do you think they will really but the house?” I asked. “Probably.” “Probably? Well, if they do, I suppose Ill have to admit that I was wrong.” “You mean youre going to eat your words?” Patrick laughed and asked. “Yes, I am.”45What was the problem the author had with his h
35、ouse?ABats were living in the barn and wouldnt go away.BThe author and his son couldnt sleep well because of the bats.CThe author and his son might be able to stay for the season.DThe house was still badly in need of repair.46What solution did the father and son discuss to stop the bats living in th
36、e barn?ABuying a high frequency machine.BMoving them one hundred miles away.CReducing the number of mosquitoes.DClosing the barn in the spring.47Why did the author fall silent when he talked with the bat specialist?AHe felt sure about the situation.BHe found out that it would be impossible to remove
37、 the bats.CHe learned that he would be able to share his luck with the expert.DHe liked the advice given by the expert.48What happened to the house in the end?ASome people agreed to rent and probably buy the house.BThe author failed to find anybody who wanted to live in the house.CThe bat expert mad
38、e the decision to buy the house.DThe bats left house for Mexico in the spring .CLast night was the last game for my eight year old sont soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my sons team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.With less than
39、ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my sons teammate, Mickey ODonnel. With shouts of “Kick it!” echoing (回响) across the playground, Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted (沸腾). ODonnel had scored!Then there was silence. Mickey had
40、scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Downs syndrome (唐氏综合症) and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing pla
41、yers when they scored.The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted, “I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!” For a moment I held my breath, not sure how my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my
42、son threw up his hand in the classic high five salute and started chanting, “Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!” Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal.Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied, “It was
43、a tie. Everybody won.”49What was the score of the soccer match?ATwo to two, equal to both the teams.BThree to one in Mickeys teams favor.CTwo to one in the opposite teams favor.DEverybody won because of Mickeys goal.50The underlined word “hush” in paragraph 3 means .AcheerBcryClaughterDsilence51What
44、 did the author worry about when Mickey scored and hugged his son?AThe result of the match would fail his son.BHis son would shout at Mickey for his goal.CMickey would again hug the opposing players.DHis son would understand Mickeys wrong goal.52It can be inferred from the passage that .Aboth teams
45、liked and respected MickeyBboth teams were thankful to Mickey for his goalCMickey didnt mind though his goal was wrongDMickey was a kind hearted boy and hoped everybody won53The purpose of the author in writing the passage is .Ato tell a joke to make readers laughBto suggest we should not mind losin
46、gCto show enjoying a game is more than winning a gameDto present his sons fine qualities of understanding othersDAlthough international students want to dive into American culture, it is easier to stay close to the familiar.“Most international students told me that they want to meet and make friends
47、 with as many Americans as they can,” said Mark Galloway, Institute for International Studies (IIS) student adviser at Murray State University. “But in reality, they are comfortable with being around people from their own country, if possible.”Testing of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is an a
48、dmissions (入学) test for international students enrolling in American universities. Galloway said students scores decreased when they spent less time with American students. More than 450 international students are on campus at Murray State University. Thailand, Japan, South Korea, China and Germany
49、are the countries with the most students this semester, according to an IIS report.Wichien Eampromate, Thai Studernt Association president, said poor English ability and cultural differences make it difficult for Thai students to spend time with Americans. “We eat different things; we do different k
50、inds of things,” said Eampromate.On the other hand, Joon Seong Bae, an exchange student from Korea University, said he tries to avoid hanging around other Koreans. But it is not easy for him. He said he is less comfortable with Americans because he cannot say everything he wants to say, and not all
51、Americans are patient with his limited English. “There were two or three Americans and me,” Bae said. “We talked about something. As time went by, I was kind of excluded (排斥在外) because they talked to each other.”While international students venture outside their comfort zones, American students also
52、 have the opportunity to be exposed to other cultures. “I know there are a lot (of American students) who want to get to know international students,” said Philip Lee, senior from Boonville, Indiana. “They are just uncomfortable. ” Lee said he has learned about life from his international friends, a
53、lthough it is sometimes a challenge. “I cant live a comfortable life all the time, ” Lee said. “I realized there is great benefit of stepping out of my comfort zone to meet people.”54From the first paragraph we learn that .Ainternational students enjoy American culture with difficultyBinternational
54、students all go to America without preparationCAmerican culture, in fact, is the same as othersDAmerican culture is easy to deal with55What Galloway said in this passage means .ATOEFL is becoming more and more difficultBTOEFL is a test held in American universitiesCmixing with native Americans helps
55、 learning EnglishDAmerica is the only place for us to learn English56When American students talk with international students, they .Aalways feel comfortableBusually become angryCoften charge for moneyDusually get familiar with other cultures57It can be inferred from this passage that .Ainternational

57、s, lined with white sandy beaches and bright blue seas, it is often the Caribbean or South Pacific that comes to mind. But for Chinese tourists who want a taste of paradise on Earth there is new place to consider.Mauritius, an island lying off the southeast of Africa in the Indian Ocean, has just be
58、en added to Chinas list of tourist destinations. Rich in history, natural beauty and culture, the island has been a popular destination for the worlds tourists for many years.On December 15 a total of eight African countries were added to the list. The others are Tunisia, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Kenya,
59、Zimbabwe, Zambia and the Seychelles.The island has passed through the controlling hands of a number of European powers, including Dutch, French and British. In 1968, Mauritius won its independence.At present, over half the population of Mauritius in Hindu and another fifth is Muslim (穆斯林). Both grou
60、ps are descendants (后裔) from workers brought to the island from India by the British. Some Chinese were also brought over to work. There are also descendants of African slaves and Franco Mauritians, the original settlers of the island.One of the best things about the island is the food. There is a m
61、outh watering mix of European, Chinese and Indian flavours and seafood is very popular. A typical Mauritian dinner might have Indian chicken curry, Chinese pork, British roast beef and French style vegetables. Boiled rice is served with just about everything. All that is washed down with a plentiful
62、 supply of local beer and rum (朗姆酒).The pleasant tropical climate and scenery provide the perfect setting to enjoy everything. The sea is full of colorful life that lives around the coral reef (珊瑚礁). This makes Mauritius a wonderful place for swimming and diving. The large number of interesting fish
