【题目】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。

If cars had wings,they could fly and that just might happen,beginning in 2011.The company Terrafugia,based in Woburn,Massachusetts,says it plans to deliver its carplane,the Transition,to customers by the end of 2011.

“It's the next ‘wow’ vehicle,” said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh.“Anybody can buy a Ferrari,but as we say,Ferraris don't fly.”

The carplane has wings that unfold for flying-a process the company says takes one minute-and fold back up for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land.

The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies,although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations,and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.

The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports:You drive the car to the airport and then you're good to go. When you land,you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don't have to store it at an airport-you park it in the garage at home.

The carplane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds,including fuel and passengers. Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowin pilots to drive under the bad weather instead of flying into marginal(临界的) conditions.

The Transition's price tag:$194,000.But there may be additional charges for options like a radio,a transponder or a GPS. Another option is a fullplane parachute.

“If you get into a very awful situation,it is the necessary safety option,” Gersh said.

So far,the company has more than 70 orders with deposits. “We're working very closely with them,but there are still some remaining steps,” Brown said.

【1】We can learn from the first two paragraphs that ________.

A.carplanes will be popular in 2011

B.people might drive a carplane in 2011

C.both the Transition and Ferrari can take off and land

D.Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts

【2】It takes the carplane one minute to ________.

A.fold and unfold its wings

B.unfold wings for flying

C.land in the airport

D.meet flying safety regulations

【3】According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true?

A.The carplane needs a runway to take off and land.

B.To meet aircraft regulations,the company has been working with FAA.

C.The carplane may fly as high as normal planes.

D.People can park the carplane in the garage at their home.

【4】The underlined word “it” in the last but one paragraph refers to ________.

A.the radio

B.the transponder

C.the GPS

D.the fullplane parachute

【5】What's the best title for the passage?

A.Cars with wings may be just around the corner

B.Which to choose:a Ferrari or a carplane?

C.A more convenient and cheaper way to fly

D.Cars with wings can fly as fast as planes

Dear Tom,

I’m an Australian boy of 16 years old, which lives in Sydney. I like Chinese very much, but I want a pen pal in China. At school I like playing football and tennis. Our favorite subject is science because it’s very interesting. I won’t like history, for I think it’s rather boring. I play guitar well, so I join in the school rock band. In the afternoon we usually play football or tennis. We usually got home at about 5:30 pm. For weekends I often go out for a swim, which is really relaxed. Do you like sports and games? What do you like to play?

I’m looking forward to get your early reply.

Yours truly,

Jack

【题目】How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments-mostly for entertainment purposes-is fair and respectful?

Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.

Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.

The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.

Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered.Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild.Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?

Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.

【1】In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.

A.remain in cages B.attack other animals

C.behave strangely D.enjoy moving around

【2】What does the author try to argue in the passage?

A.Zoos fail in their attempt to save animal

B.Zoos are not worth the public support.

C.Zoos should treat animals as human beings.

D.Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.

【3】The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.

A.using evidence he has collected at zoos

B.pointing out the faults in what zoos do

C.questioning the way animals are protected

D.discussing the advantages of natural habitats

【4】Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that __________.

A.zoos have to keep animals in small cages

B.most animals in zoos are endangered species

C.it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats

D.some endangered animals are reproduced in zoos

Last night my brother and I went to visit a friend of me. It was a wonderfully visit. We shared much interesting things in our childhood. It was the very long drive so on the way back we stopped at a restaurant eat. He paid the bill with a tip that was five times the amount of her bill. He was too generous that the waitress could not believe he gives her that much. Back in the car I asked him that why he had left such a big tip and he responded that it would make her happier. I think he must have thought she was tired.
