A religious worker wrote that 【7】 a crocodile found a man by the water, it would kill him if it could. Then the crocodile would cry tears on the man, but then finally swallow 【8】(he). Another myth suggests【9】crocodile is very clever indeed. Crocodiles, the story goes, would cry tears as a false show of guilt or sadness to trick their prey.

【题目】 On 23 June 2016, UK (United Kingdom) adults made a historic decision. More than 33 million people voted for the UK to leave the European Union (EU). In the referendum, the result was that around 52% of them—just over half—voted to leave the group of 28 countries. This is called Brexit made up to describe the “British Exit”. No country had ever left the EU before, so Brexit was a significant moment in European history.
After UK and EU leaders had lots of hard negotiations about how Brexit would work, on 22nd, January, 2020, Wednesday, the British Parliament finally approved an agreement about the UK’s divorcing the EU, which Queen Elizabeth II agreed to on Thursday. The deal was expected to pass in the European Parliament the next week. If everything went well, the UK would leave the EU on January 31, 2020. It did! The UK finally and officially left the EU at 11 pm on this day, ending a process that began three and a half years before. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Brexit fans celebrated with fireworks and big parties. For many they called it the UK’s Independence Day. For many others in the UK, it represented the final stage of something they fought hard to prevent. Now the deal has been signed and Britain has left, but it doesn’t mean the life in Britain will change suddenly. Until 31st December 2020, freedom of movement will continue and this means UK citizens will have the right to live and work in the EU.
Making things even more difficult is the fact that the next challenge of Brexit has arrived. The UK and EU now have almost one year to work out the details of the relationship they will have in the future. Many experts express their common concern that making these new agreements will go through the same experience as the original Brexit deal.
【1】What does the underlined word “referendum” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Explanation.B.Vote.
C.Deal.D.Statement.
【2】What day was it when the UK left the EU officially?
A.Tuesday.B.Wednesday.
C.Thursday.D.Friday.
【3】What can we say about Brexit?
A.It was an extremely difficult process.B.It is a great victory for all UK people.
C.It means a temporary loss for the EU.D.It brings UK people a new life overnight.
【4】What is the experts’ attitude towards Brexit’s next work?
A.Ambiguous.B.Confident.
C.Worried.D.Cautious.
