As dangerous as sharks may have seed to people after watching Jaws, which was released on June 20,1975, the recent disastrous decrease in their numbers show that people have proven far more dangerous to sharks.

    This disastrous decline is due in large part to commercial fishing of sharks. “The market for

shark fins(鱼翅)in East Asia opened up thanks to changes in their economy, increasing their

ability to spend money on things such as shark fin soup,” Burgess said.

However, the biggest worry for sharks and their relatives, the skates and rays, which are suffering a similar fate, “is how they are killed incidentally when fishermen try and take other fish—the problem of bycatch(渔业混获),” Burgess explained. “They may be thrown back afterward, but they’re still dead.”

The key of the problems behind bringing sharks back is that “they’re not the same as other fish,” Burgess said, “Sharks are slow growing and slow to reach maturity. Sharks are live bearers, which means females keep their young in their body just like us, but instead of nine months, it takes 12 to 18 months or more in sharks. Also, sharks generally can’t give birth again until a year after they’ve given birth—sometimes they’re on a three-year cycle. So once you get a shark population knocked down, this ‘life in the slow lane’ means that recovery is measured in decades rather than years.”\

Burgess said, “I’m on the recovery team for it, but the recovery plan for that is over the course of 100 years. So I won’t see them recover, nor will you, nor will your children. That’s what it means when these animals go down—they’re down a long time.”

Any measures aimed at saving sharks must not only consider byeatch, “which is the real killer right now,” but also encourage interactional cooperation, Burgess said.

“Sharks are very migratory, and many species cross borders,” he said. “We can protect them only by getting many govemment to come aboard. That’s the hardest part about this.”

The text mainly tells us       .

       A.shark fins are valuable    B.sharks are dangerous

       C.bycatch brings bad effects       D.sharks are in danger

The number of sharks is decreasing mostly because of      .

       A.the film Jaws          B.commercial interests

       C.changes in economy D.shark fin soup

Bringing sharks back is difficult because      .

       A.they’re like the other fish      

       B.their reproductive rate is slow

       C.they can’t give birth again     

       D.their life cycle is only 3 years

What can be concluded from the last paragraph?

       A.Sharks live the way human beings do.

       B.It’s time many govemments cooperate.

       C.Sharks’ migration takes a very long time.

       D.Bycatch shouldn’t be forbidden by intemational laws.

The test is most probably a        .

       A.newspaper ad          B.book review

When former American President Bill Clinton traveled to South Korea to visit President Kim Young Sam, he repeatedly referred to the Korean president’s wife as Mrs.Kim.By mistake, President Clinton’s advisers thought that Koreans have the same naming customs as the Japanese.Clinton had not been told that, in Korea, wives keep their family names.President Kim Young Sam’s wife was named Sohm Myong Suk.Therefore, she should be addressed(称谓)as Mrs.Sohn.

       President Clinton arrived in Korea directly after leaving Japan and had not changed his culture gears.His failure to follow Korean customs gave the impression that Korea was not as important to him as Japan.

       In addition to Koreans, some Asian husbands and wives do not share the same family names.This practice often puzzles English-speaking teachers when talking with a pupil’s parents.They become puzzled about the student’s correct last name.Placing the family name first is common among a number of Asian cultures.

       Mexican naming customs are different as well.When a woman marries, she keeps her family name and adds her husband’s name after the word de (of).This affects how they fill in forms in the United States.When requested to fill in a middle name, they generally write the father’s family name.But Mexicans are addressed by the family name of the mother.This often causes puzzlement.

       Here are a few ways to deal with such difficult situations: don’t always think that a married woman uses her husband’s last name.Remember that in many Asian cultures, the order of first and last names is reversed. Ask which name a person would prefer to use.If the name is difficult to pronounce, admit it, and ask the person to help you say it correctly.

63.The story of Bill Clinton is used to            .                                            

       A.improve US Kotean relations                       B.introduce the topic of the text

       C.describe his visit to Korea                            D.tell us how to address a person

64.The word “gears” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to           .               

       A.action plans                                               B.naming customs

    C.travel maps                                                D.thinking patterns

65.When a woman marries in Koreas, she            .                                       

       A.continues to use her family name                 B.uses her husband’s given name

   C.shares her husband’s family name                   D.adds her husband’s given name to hers

To address a married woman properly, you’d better           .                              

    A.use her middle name                                       B.use her husband’s first name

       C.ask her which name she likes                       D.change the order of her names

第三部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)

第一节:(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30 分)

阅读下面的短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

She was known to millions as the "Queen of Crime" or the "Duchess (女公爵) of death". But surprisingly, she hated violence and blood, and knew nothing of the weapons most often used in murder. "I don't think I dare look at a really horrible and damaged body." Agatha Christie once said.

But her pen dared travel where her eyes would not. In a 50-year writing career, Christie's murder stories made her the world's best-known mystery writer. She is outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare.

Her works have been turned into films and TV series, and a line of computer games is to be released over the next six years.

"My grandmother liked to use new ways to reach people who wanted to enjoy her work," said Christie's grandson, Mathew Pritchard. "Turning her stories into PC games allows us to introduce classic mysteries to new audiences."

Born in 1890 in England, Christie was educated at home and began her writing career while working as a nurse during World War I. She went on to produce 79 novels and numerous short stories, dying at the age of 86.

"With her knowledge of murder, Christie could have been a teacher at police academies," said one fan.

A. she would like to make a trip with her pen rather than other things

B. she couldn't live without her pen

C. she could describe anything with her pen that she would not like to face

D. she made up stories with her pen

57. By which means can't we learn the works of Christie?

A. Watching TV.   B. Going to the cinema. C. Reading novels.       D. Playing computer games.

58. Mathew Prichard's words suggest that    _

A. Christie had been trying to write different stories in different styles

B. Christie was fond of changing styles while writing

C. Christie's works are short of audiences

D. People began to lose interest in Christie's works

59. The fifth paragraph mainly

II.阅读(共两节,满分50分)

第一节  阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

    阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B,C和D项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

       Like all other mothers who have small children, I, too, have to steal time-from my own children at home and from the children who know me as their teacher-just to put a few words down on paper. Many times I've wanted to write for myself, for other women, for my parents, for my husband, and especially for my children. I would have liked to leave a legacy (遗产) of words explaining what it has meant to have twins. One reason that there is not a great deal written about being a mother of a new baby is that there is seldom a moment to think of anything else but the baby's needs.

       With twins, I did not have a spare hand to write with.

       Before my twins were born, my days were long and I had nothing to write about. After the twins' birth I did have something to write about, but I found myself facing not a pen and paper but milk bottles.

       Some nights, friends would visit. They would leave at 11 p.m., heading for bed, and for us the night was only just beginning. With twins, there is really no night. Each feeding lasts a long time. At 1:00 a.m., each of them would begin crying from hunger. At 4:00am, when I finally put them down, I felt exhausted.

       Two years have passed since then and we've managed to live through it all. My days are still very full and even now there isn't one evening when I put the twins down for the night that I don't have a break. At last a little time for myself.

26. When did the writer have time but she didn't feel like writing anything?

A. Before the birth of her twins.

B. When she faced bottles of milk.

C. After her friends visited her home.

D. When she had to think about the babies' needs.

27. What does the writer mainly write about?

A. Her role as a wife.                         B. Her work as a writer.

C. Her experience as a mother.            D. Her feeling as a woman.

28. Why did the writer say the night was just beginning (in the 4th paragraph)?

A. Because her friends left her house too late.

B. Because she started to take care of the twins even at night.

C. Because her babies often cried and she woke up.

D. Because she could not sleep till four in the morning.

29. This passage is probably from a(n) ______.

A. blog          B. newspaper               C. guidebook               D. advertisement

30. What can we learn from the passage?

A. The writer was unhappy because of no time for writing.

B. The writer cared her babies more than her own interests.

C. The writer hated to be a mother of twins.

D. The writer could steal a little time at night.
