    　　阅读理解：

    　　In 1901, H．G．Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon．When the explorers (探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities．They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met．In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise．“Why,” they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?”

    　　H．G．Wells could only imagine travel to the moon．In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon．People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon．However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one．A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it．

    　　Underground systems are already in place．Many cities have underground car parks．In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas．The “Chunnel”, a tunnel (隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete．

    　　But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities．” The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on．A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city．

    　　Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space．The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness．H．G．Wells' “moon people” would agree．Would you?

    1．The explorers in H．G．Wells' story were surprised to find that the “moon people”________．

    [　　]

    A．knew so much about the earth

    B．understood their language

    C．lived in so many underground cities

    D．were ahead of them in space technology

    2．What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 2 refer to?

    [　　]

    A．Discovering the moon's inner space．

    B．Using the earth's inner space．

    C．Meeting the “moon people” again．

    D．Traveling to outer space．

    3．What sort of underground systems are already here with us?

    [　　]

    A．Offices, shopping areas, power stations．

    B．Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas．

    C．Gardens, car parks, power stations．

    D．Tunnels, gardens, offices．

    4．What would be the best title for the text?

    [　　]

    A．Alice Cities Cities of the Future

    B．Space Travel with H．G．Wells

    C．Enjoy Living Underground

    D．Building Down, Not Up

    　　Kangaroos live only in Australia and on the island near it. Not many people knew they were there until about 200 yeas ago. At that time, Captain Cook sailed to Australia from England.

    　　He and his men had travelled halfway around the world. They needed food for the long trip home. Captain Cook sent a few sailors ashore to get food .

    　　When the sailor returned, they brought with them a big gray animal. The men's eyes were being opened wide.

    　　“Look at his tail,”said one, “It must be four feet long！”

    　　“What's the animal called?” asked the captain.

    　　“We tried to get the people to tell us,” answered a sailor, “They kept saying ‘Kangaroo’. They wouldn't say anything else.”

    　　“Kangaroo,” said Captain Cook, “That's a good name. It sounds as queer as he Cooks . ” Captain cook carefully noted this word in his word book.

    　　The missionaries (传教士) who later came to Australia were anxious to see a kangaroo but their questions were met with puzzled looks. They soon discovered that the native who answered Cook's question was really saying, “I don't know what you're pointing at.”This is how the word “Kangaroo ”has come into use.

    [　　]

    A．Captain Cook's sailor had a sense of humor.

    D．Captain Cook was fond of animals.

    (2)What does the passage want to tell us?

    　　James, a wildlife writer, told a story that an African woman had placed her baby in the shade of a tree while she was working．An elephant group walked by and saw the baby．Several elephants pulled leafy branches from the tree covered the sleeping baby．Flies can be a problem in Africa and the branches protected the baby from the flies．The elephants were so gentle and quiet that they did not even wake up the baby．Then the elephants walked away．

    　　An English magazine offers another story．Bill, a cat, stayed at home while its master was away on a trip, but the man was injured in a railway accident and died a few days later in a hospital．At the funeral, the Man’s brother was surprised to see that Bill was there．The faithful cat had traveled a long way to the hospital, looked at the coffin(棺材), and then sadly returned home．

    　　Humans are only one part of the earth．The beautiful flowers are our sisters; the deer, the horses and the great eagles, these are our brothers．The sky and mountains, the cows and men, all belong to the same family．These stories, I hope, will inspire more people to treat animals as our friends rather than pets or our next meal．
