Loch Ness, the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles, is twenty four miles long and, at one point, one mile wide. It has an average depth of four hundred and fifty feet and at times drops close to a thousand. It is cold and murky(浑浊的), with dangerous currents. In short, it is the perfect place to hide a monster from even the sharpest eyes of science.
The Loch Ness Monster, also called Nessie, is supposedly living in this area. The earliest recorded sighting of the Loch Ness Monster was in the biography of Life of St. Columba by Adamnan in the year AD 565. The monster apparently attacked a man who was swimming in the River Ness.
The monster didn’t make headlines again until August 27, 1930, when 3 fishermen reported seeing a creature with 20 feet long approaching their boat, throwing water in the air. In 1933, after a new road was built along the edge of the Loch, the number of reports rose suddenly. Early in 1934, Author Grant, a young student, was out on his motorcycle one evening when he almost ran into the monster as it crossed the road. Grant’s description of the thing — small head, long thin neck and tail with a big body, seemed to match the appearance of the plesiosaur(蛇颈龙), an aquatic(水生的) type of dinosaur that has been extinct(已灭绝的)for 65 million years.
The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau was formed in 1962 to act as a research organization for information about the creature. Even now, efforts have continued to find the monster. A great deal of information was discovered about the Loch, but they haven’t yet to produce any specific evidence of a monster.
Skeptics(怀疑论者) argue that the water in the Loch is too cold for a plesiosaur to live in. They also argue that an air-breathing animal, like a whale or seal, would spend much more time on the surface than the creature seems to, and would be spotted more often.
Some scientists have wondered if the sightings might be caused by an underwater wave which is known to sometimes occur in deep, long, and cold lakes, like Loch Ness. Such a wave might push debris(废弃物)to the surface that might look like a strange animal.
However, none of these is identified.
1.According to the skeptics, which of the following is TRUE?
A. It is impossible for a monster to live in cold water.
B. The Loch Ness Monster often stays under the water.
C. The Loch Ness Monster is an air-breathing animal.
D. There is no so-called monster in Loch Ness.
2.The purpose of setting up the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau is to .
A. research the plesiosaur in the Loch Ness
B. protect the Nessie in the lake
C. collect some information about the Nessie
D. catch the Loch Ness Monster
3.Which of the following is the correct order for the things that happened in the passage?
A. A young student met with a monster crossing the road.
B. A swimmer was attacked by a monster in Loch Ness.
C. A new road was built along the edge of the Loch.
D. The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau was set up.
e. Three fishermen saw a creature swimming towards their boat.
A. b, e, c, a, d B. a, b, e, d, c
C. b, d, a, c, e D. d, c, e, b, a
4.We can infer from the passage that .
A. Nessie is an aquatic type of dinosaur
B. Nessie has a 20-foot-long body
C. Nessie is an underwater wave
D. Nessie is still a mystery
5.What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. The natural scenery of Loch Ness.
B. The Nessie.
C. Skeptics’ opinions on Loch Ness Monster.
D. The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau’s research results.

In May, 2014, some Chinese tourists found a Chinese-character message “Ding Jinhao once visited here” on a statue of god in a 3500-year-old Egyptian temple. An angry tourist took the photograph of the scrawl and posted it on social media Sina Weibo. It was quickly spread and there were more than 100,000 comments during two weeks.

A. A general sleep rule. B. The importance of sleep. C. A funny sleeping example. D. Different levels of sleep. E. The time we need for sleep. F. Different states of sleep. |
1.
Sleep, as we know, is important to us because it helps restore tired organs and tissues in our body. But how much sleep do we actually need?
2.
For most of us, eight hours seems to be about the right amount. Yet we know that there are a great many people who get along perfectly with less sleep and some who may even need more. A great deal depends on the way we live. But a good general rule to follow is to sleep as long as we have to in order to feel happy and be able to work at our best when we are awake.
3.
There are actually different levels of sleep. There is a deep sleep and a shallow sleep. In a shallow sleep our body does not get the same kind of rest as it gets in a deep sleep, so that after eight hours of a shallow sleep we may still feel tired. But a short deep sleep can be very restful.
4.
Alexander the Great was able to get a deep sleep whenever he needed it. Once, during the night before an important battle, he remained awake longer than anyone else. Then he wrapped himself in a cloak and lay down on the earth. He slept so deeply that his generals had to wake him three times to give command to attack!
5.
Normally when we go to sleep, our “ sleep center” blocks off nerves so that both our brain and our body go to sleep. One prevents us form wanting to do anything and the other makes our internal organs and limbs go to sleep. But someone will fall asleep (brain sleep) and keep on marching, because his body is not asleep!

Mr. Black was the manager of a hotel in Atlanta. One weekend all of the hotels were full because of a large business meeting being held in the city. On Sunday night, three men came into Mr. Black’s hotel and asked for rooms. Mr. Black told them that there were no more rooms available. The men didn’t know what to do because they had no place to stay in.
Mr. Black wanted to help them. He remembered that there was an empty room at the far end of the first floor — Room 112. It was a very small room, and had rarely been used as a guest room before. So, he asked the three men if they would mind sharing that small room. They replied that they would be very satisfied so long as there was a room for them to stay in for the night.
Mr. Black then told them that the room would cost them $ 30 in total. On hearing this, each of the three men gave Mr. Black $ 10 before they left for their room.
However, Mr. Black soon began to think that $ 30 was really too much for that small room. He called his assistant over and said, “Here is $ 5. Give it back to the three men in Room 112. Each of them paid me $10. That’s too much.”
The assistant took the money. While he was on the way to that small room, he thought, “How can three men divide $ 5? I’ll give each of them only $ 1 and keep the $ 2 left to myself. The men will be happy to get anything back, and I can also make some money that way. After all, Mr. Black will never know anything about it.” So, the assistant returned only $1 to each of the three men.
Each man had first paid $ 10. After the assistant returned $1 to him, each man had actually paid only $ 9. There were three men. $ 9×3=$27. The assistant kept $ 2. $ 27 + $ 2= $ 29. Where is the missing dollar?
1.Why didn’t Mr. Black offer Room 112 to the three men at first?
A. The key had been lost.
B. It was too small for three men.
C. No one had stayed there before.
D. It was not bright enough.
2.How much did Mr. Black first ask each man for the room?

3.How were the manager and his assistant in behavior?
A. The manager was honest but the assistant was not.
B. The manager worked hard, but the assistant was lazy.
C. The assistant was clever but the manager was not.
D. The manager did not know how to make money, but the assistant did.
