    On a hot African morning, Leila was lying on her stomach and an elephant was walking towards her. Leila waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open near the path (小道). They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”
    Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers set up their hides (隐匿处) near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, many lakes have hides. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day in the shade (荫处) out of the wind and rain.
    Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazines and newspapers. But a success rate of 1 in 20 is good.
    小题1:Why did Leila lie under her car on the stomach?
    A．Because she wanted to sleep.
    B．Because she wanted to take photos but was afraid of the animals.
    C．Because it’s easy to see the elephants.
    D．Because it’s very comfortable.
    小题2:How can photographers take good photos?
    A．By making good preparation.
    B．By going into the forest at night.
    C．By walking around the holes.
    D．By going to the nearest lake.
    小题3:What can we know from the last sentence of the passage?
    A．The successful rate of taking wildlife photos is 50% at most.
    B．Photographers who take wildlife photos need more practice.
    C．To take good wildlife photos is not difficult.
    D．It’s hard to take good wildlife photos.

    小题1:B
    小题2:A
    小题3:D

    “How are you?”is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other. But “How are you?”is also a very unusually question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you ?”isn’t really a question and “Fine.”isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello.”or “Hi.”Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong.”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.”It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.”Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse,“Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.”The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hand up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language.
    根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（T）误（F）.（5分）
    小题1:“How are you?”is another way of saying “Hello.”or“Hi.”
    小题2: It is polite to say “No. I disagree. I think you are wrong.”if you don’t agree with others.
    小题3:When someone says“I have to go now.”on the phone, it means he wants to go on talking.
    小题4:“Someone is at the door.”may be an excuse for finishing a phone call.
    小题5:Sometimes people don’t say exactly what they are thinking about just because they try to be nice to each other.

    How should one invest a sum of money in these clays of inflation (通货膨胀)? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.
    I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. "The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves（奴隶）."
    Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring（量） the time of clay according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout tire time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.
    However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable（可靠的） ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.
    Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in air antique clock and perhaps make a future profit（收益）?
    小题1:According to the passage, collecting antique clocks____.
    A．can hardly keep the value of your savings
    B．will cost much of your savings
    C．may increase your wealth
    D．needs your bravery
    小题2:By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to____.
    A．suggest human beings are controlled by a clock
    B．describe why clocks can rule the planet Earth
    C．tell readers what clocks look like
    D．compare chocks to human beings
    小题3:Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?
    A．Counting the beating of one's own heart.
    B．Making use of candles, sand and water.
    C．Observing shadows cast by the sun.
    D．Keeping slaves busy day and night.
    小题4:The underlined phrase stately homes in paragraph（段落）4 means_________.
    A．state-owned houses
    B．houses in very good condition
    C．grand houses open to the public
    D．houses where statesmen meet regularly
    小题5:The purpose of the passage is________.
    A．to introduce the culture of antique clocks
    B．to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks
    C．to compare different ways to make a future profit
    D．to explain convenient and reliable ways of telling time

    I was not having a happy holiday. My family had decided to go back to the countryside in New Hampshire, US, again. But I found it boring. What made the holiday even worse was that I had to sleep in the same bed as my brother. But I was wrong. This trip was the best holiday I have ever had. During the holiday, I met a very special friend.
    While I was walking in the countryside, I saw a man carrying a small brown bag. Wearing white clothes, the man looked like a ghost. As he looked at me, I felt frightened. I wanted to run away when the man spoke to me. “Hello. Beautiful day, isn’t it?” he said. The man talked a lot. I wasn’t listening very carefully because I was looking at his little bag. I wanted to see what was inside it!
    He saw me looking at the bag and he asked me if I would like to see. Out came a lively, beautiful puppy. The brown puppy was small and only about two months old. The man then asked me, “Would you like to keep this puppy?” I had always wanted a puppy and now I had the chance. I thanked him, took the puppy and ran home. For the rest of that summer, I played with him all the time. And after the trip, I took him home. The puppy is now loved by all my family. He is a friend to both my brother and me, a warm little ball of happiness in our lives.
