    Somehow Rey had managed to struggle free from the rope around his neck, after being left to die a slow death as punishment for being a bad Spanish greyhound（猎狗）．

    20090506

     
    It is believed that 50,000 greyhounds are killed by their owners in Spain each year after they grow too old, or turn out to be too slow to hunt with．Dogs have also been found thrown into wells, burnt alive and even injected with poison．

    But Rey's intended fate（命运） was, even within the levels of cruelty usually shown to Spanish hunting dogs, especially cruel．The rope around his neck had been set at a height so that his front paws could not touch the ground, meaning that he was intended to stand on his back legs until he was too tired to support himself．When his legs finally became too tired, the rope should have done its work．
    "They call it the typewriting death, because the dog's back legs struggled against the ground and make the clicking sound of a typewriter," said Albert Sorde, of the SOS Galgos greyhound rescue group．"It is a punishment for greyhounds that are thought to have made their owners lose face．"
    "Rey's throat was severely damaged but we managed to find a vet to operate and, though it was expensive, he survived," he said．
    Greyhounds in Spain are used for hunting hares（野兔）．"The dogs are meant to imitate the swerves（转向）of the hares," said Sorde．"Those who don't, and make their owners look bad, are called 'dirty greyhounds' and are most likely to be killed by the typewriter method．"  
    小题1:Rey was intended to be killed by            ．
    A．kickingB．burying
    C．hangingD．drowning
    小题2:The underlined word "vet" in（Paragraph 5）probably means  “_________”．
    A．animal doctorB．ambulance
    C．animal medicine D．equipment
    小题3:What can you infer from the passage?  
    A．Dogs are not kept as pets in Spain．
    B．Rey was punished because he had not been loyal to his owner．
    C．The typewriting death is named because a typewriter is used in the punishment．
    D．Rey didn’t behave very well in the hunting．
    小题4:The passage mainly tells the readers about _________．
    A．the cruel killing of dogs in Spain
    B．how Rey was saved by rescuers
    C．how Spanish dogs hunt hares
    D．the fate of the dogs in Spain

    The USA, New York —Whales and dolphins are facing increasing threats from climate change, according to a new report published by WWF and the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society（WDCS）.
    The report “Whales in hot water?” draws attention to the growing impacts of climate change on whales. They range from changes in sea temperature and the freshening of the seawater because of the melting of ice and increased rainfalls, to a sea level rise, loss of icy polar habitats and the decline of krill populations in key areas. Krill, a tiny shrimp that is dependent on sea ice, is the main source of food for many of the great whales.
    The speeding up of climate change adds greatly to trouble from other human activities, such as chemical and noise pollution, which kills some 1000 whales every day.
    “Whales and dolphins have an ability to adapt to their changing environment,” said Mark Simmonds, International Director of Science at WDCS. “But the climate is now changing at such a fast pace that it is unclear to what extent whales and dolphins will be able to adjust.”
    Climate change impacts are currently greatest in the Arctic and the Antarctic. According to the report, cetaceans that rely on polar, icy waters for their home and food resources are likely to be greatly affected by the reduction of sea ice cover.
    WDCS and WWF are urging governments to cut global production of CO2 by at least 50 percent by the middle of this century. The latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change showed it was possible to stop global warming if the world’s emissions start to decline before 2015.
    1. From the passage, we can learn that whales mainly feed on ______.
    A. dolphins       B.krill         C. sea horses       D. sharks
    2. Which of the following has the same meaning as the underlined word “decline” (in Para 2)?
    A. produce         B. develop       C. fall         D. increase
    3. In what place is climate change greatest?
    A. Two polar areas.                       B. Asia.
    C. The pacific ocean.                    D. Equator.
    4. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?
    A. Climate change will lead to the changes in sea temperature.
    B. Climate change will result in the freshening of the sea water.
    C. Climate change will have a bad effect on human activities and whales.
    D. Human beings will forever have no ability to stop global warming

    Every year there are hundreds of earthquakes in different parts of the world. In September, 1923, Tokyo and Yokohama were both destroyed by an earthquake and the fires that followed it. They had to be completely rebuilt. One of the most serious earthquakes was in China’s Shanxi province in 1556. It killed almost one million people.
    We measure an earthquake’s strength on the Richter Scale. The Richter Scale was introduced in 1935 in Southern California in the USA. It measures earthquakes on a scale of one to ten. Any earthquake measuring five or more is usually serious.
    The Earth’s crust(地壳) is made up of rock called plates. As these plates move, they sometimes crash against each other, causing the crust to quake. In cities such as Tokyo, where small quakes happen quite often, many modern buildings are designed to be flexible so when the Earth moves, they move with it.
    Earthquakes can also break up gas and oil pipes. This can cause fires to break out, which can do as much damage as the earthquake itself.
    Another effect of earthquakes is tsunamis. These are huge waves created by earthquakes beneath the sea. They can be many meters high and cause great damage to coastal towns and cities, China, Japan, Russia and the USA have the highest occurrence(发生) of earthquakes in the world.
    小题1:The passage is mainly about       .
    A．scientists who study earthquakesB．the way of measuring earthquakes
    C．a usual natural disasterD．what people should do in the earthquake
    小题2:The earthquake in Shanxi Province       , which in NOT true?
    A．happened in 1556B．killed one million people
    C．was the only earthquake in ChinaD．caused a lot of damage
    小题3: Earthquakes        
    A．don’t cause much damageB．are not serious
    C．most possibly happen in JapanD．happen all over the world
    小题4:According to the passage we know that tsunamis        .
    A．can cause earthquakes
    B．are caused by earthquakes
    C．only happen on land
    D．are a way of measuring earthquakes

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
    Imagine life as a game in which you are playing some five balls in the air. You name them-work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you’re keeping all these balls in the air.
    You understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably (不可逆转地) scuffed (磨损), marked, damaged or even broken into pieces. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try for balance in your life. How?
    Don’t undermine (逐渐损害) your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special. Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know what is the best for you. Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Hold on to them as you would to life, for without them, it’s meaningless. Don’t let life slip through your fingers by living in the past or in the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life. Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going. Don’t use time or words carelessly. Life is not a race, but a journey to be enjoyed slowly each step of the way. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That’s why we call it – the present.
    56. What’s the best title of this passage?
    A. Today Is A Present    B. How to Live Your Life
    C. Life Is A Game         D. Imagine Life as a game
    57. What does the underlined sentence mean?
    A. not only where you live , but also where you’re going to live
    B. all over the world
    C. not only what you have done, but what you are going to do as well
    D. the places you have been to as well as the places you are going to
    58. Which of the following is NOT true?
    A. You should try your best to keep balance in your life.
    B. It’s unnecessary to compare yourself with others.
    C. Life is just like a race.
    D. Everyone has his own best points.

       Two third of the singles looking for love in Britain turned to the Internet last year, according to figures made in public yesterday. Special sites offer introductions to smokers, Roman Catholics, tall people, beautiful people, frequent flyers and vegetarians. Technology has brought about a great change in the dating games.
    A survey by Parsnip, a Briatain branch of Europe’s largest dating service with more than 1.5 million members, says that 65 percent of the 5.4 million Britons looking for a relationship used online dating services last year.
    A spokeswoman for Relate, the relationship advisor, confirmed the a figure of two thirds feel it all right. “Doing it online allows people quite a lot of privacy, because they can do a bit of quite research and look around from the comfort of their own home. You don’t have to meet a middleman or go to an actual dating agency office, which takes a lot of courage.” She said.
    There are more than 100 independent online dating agencies in Britain. Parsnip says that 50 percent of single people believe they will meet a suitable partner through the Internet, from 35 percent six months ago.
    Mary Balfour, the founder, say that Internet has changed the dating industry complexly. “It’ s like a return to old-fashioned love letters.” She said “You don't’t base your initial judgement on how someone looks or what his or her figure is like. You e-mail or talk before uou actually see each other. Everybody you know who is single these days has at least had a good look at a dating site, introduction agency or personal ad. They have to, because al the old matchmaking institutions have gone. People work harder, settle down later and live more isolated lives. They are much more likely t end the day with a DVD and a can of beer than by going to a villlage dance. ”
