20、ources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared(消失) from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170

21、kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger. Why should people care? Because we need animals, and because once they are gone, there will never be any more. Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the b

22、alance(平衡)of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the farmers stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice, with no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mic

23、e multiplied quickly. Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem.

27、fulAnimals C. LawsforAnimals D. SavetheAnimalsCSeveral days ago, I was walking home from school and saw some writing on the fence of a house I was passing by. It said, “Happiness is a direction, not a destination(终点).” I had been having a bad day and just reading this brightened my day a little. I a

28、lso took out a pen and wrote one of my favorite quotes(格言) down.When I came back to the fence, I saw another quote under mine in the handwriting as the first one. I added another, and we kept at this pattern for quite a while. One day, I was writing another quote on the fence and the old man, one of

29、 my neighbors, who owned the fence, saw me. He came out and I was afraid he would be mad at me for writing on his fence; he was not known to be very friendly. He gave me a sharp glance and then read the quotes on the fence. Without saying a word, he said something to himself and then went back insid

30、e. I was a bit afraid for a while, afraid to go back to the fence, but when I did, I noticed not more quotes but two words in entirely different handwriting had been added, “Thank you.”Later, I saw the old man in his front yard. He beckoned(召唤) me over and told me how my quotes had been inspiring(激励

31、) him, how he thanked me and how he was glad to see young people still have “values”. We are now good friends and I talk to him a lot. This experience has changed my life. I still dont know who wrote that very first quote, but if he is out there, Id like to say “thanks” to that unknown friend.( )11.

32、 How did the writer feel before he saw the words on the fence?A. Excited.B. Nervous.C. Unhappy.D. Relaxed.( )12. Why did the writer begin to write a quote on the fence?A. He got some help from the quote.B. He wanted to practice his handwriting.C. He thought doing this was interesting.D. He wanted to

33、 catch his neighbors attention.( )13. Why was the writer afraid when he found that his neighbor had seen him?A. He thought that the old man was a mad person.B. He was once told the old man was cold-hearted.C. He thought the old man would tell his parents about his action.D. He thought the old man wo

34、uld be unhappy with him for what he had done.( )14. Who do you think most probably added “Thank you” to the fence?A. The old man. B. Someone else. C. The writer himself. D. That unknown friend.( )15. What can we learn about the old man?A. He was the writers new neighbor.B. He was known for his frien

35、dliness.C. He knew who first wrote the words on his fence.D. He has changed his opinion about young people.DNowadays heavy traffic can happen anywhere. People can get very anxious(焦虑)if they are in heavy traffic. For many years people have tried to invent a car that can fly. If a person is driving a

36、 flying car, the heavy traffic would be far below him. People around the world hope that in the future, flying cars will be useful for short trips like taxis in or out of cities. These cars could save time in emergencies that happen suddenly and help reach places that cant be reached by road. They a

37、lso hope to save the space on the ground. Flying cars wont use runways, because they are able to take off and land by going straight up and straight down.Last September, SkyDrive, a Japanese company, showed off its new flying car SD-03. With a pilot on board, the car was flown around for four minute

38、s.Flying cars need strong power to fly in the sky freely like the airplanes. SkyDrive designed the SD-03 powered by batteries (电池). There are eight motors (发动机) lifting it straight off the ground. The design also produces less pollution.Although the SD-03s test flight was successful, we may not see

39、flying cars in our daily life anytime soon. Safety is a big problem. What happens when a motor fails? If a flying car is crossing a city, an accident could hurt not just the people in the car but also people on the ground. Thats why the SD-03 has eight motors some are backups (备用物). Flying cars are

40、also very expensive. The SD-03, for example, is expected to sell for up to $500,000.Yet people who believe in flying cars point out that cars and airplanes faced lots of challenges at first, too. Over time, many of their biggest problems were solved. Tomohiro Fukuzawa, who leads SkyDrive, hopes that

41、 by 2050, people will have been able to fly anywhere inside of Tokyo in ten minutes or less.( )16. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to _.A. the airplaneB. SkyDriveC. a batteryD. the SD-03( )17. Which of the following sentences can be put in the in Paragraph 5?A. The price of the flying

42、 cars is not low at all.B. There are still many challenges(挑战) in the way.C. Because it can make our life much easier.D. Because the motors may fail to work.( )18. We can infer(推断) from the passage that _ in the future because of flying cars.A. no accidents may happen on the streetsB. the sky might

43、become busier and busierC. people could fly anywhere in ten minutes D. there may be no cars driving on the streets( )19. What does the unlined word “emergencies” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. 紧急状况B. 浮现C. 急诊室D. 融合( )20. The structure of the passage may be _.A. B. C. D. 五、 任务型阅读You may have been in the situa

44、tion that you knew someone had trouble but didnt know what to say or do. There is one solution that is always correct. Listen, listen, and listen. Listening is the greatest gift you can give someoneespecially who is having a difficult time. Listening is more important than any words of comfort. Dont

45、 provide with advice or stories of your own. You can choose to listen. It could be 5 or 10minutes, an hour, or even all the night. I have done this for many people in trouble. What I notice is that when they talk with no interruption (打断), they often think more and more clearly. My mother had been ill in hospital for eight years when a volunteer encouraged her to talk. At first, she didnt like it, and the volunteer continued encouraging and supporting her. She talked and talked, not at once, but in many different ways. Later, the doctor noticed she was not sad any longer, she smiled and smi
