    　　The famous American gorilla（大猩猩）expert Diane Fossey had a completely new way to study gorillas— she pretended to be one of them．She copied their actions and way of life— eating plants and getting down on her hands and knees to walk the way a gorilla does．It was a new relationship．

    　　Diane Fossey was murdered in Rwanda in 1985 and her story was made into the popular film Gorillas in the Mist．It was a long way from King Kong,which is about a gorilla as a monster(a frightening animal),and helped to show a new idea:the real monster is man,while the gorilla is to be admired．

    　　Today there are thought to be around 48,000 lowland gorillas and maybe 400～450 mounain gorillas in the wild．From the Congo in West Africa,to Rwanda and Uganda further east,they are endangered by hunting and by the cutting down of their forest homes．

    　　Some time ago,I found in my letterbox a little magazine from the World Wide Fund for Nature．It had two photos side by side．One was of a young gorilla．“This is a species of mammal（哺乳类动物）,”said the words below it．“It is being destroyed by man．We must save it for our own good．”Theother photo showed a human baby．The words also read,“This is a species of mammal,”but then went on:“It is the most destructive（破坏性的）on earth．We must retrain it for its own good．”

    (1)

    The text mainly talks about ________

    [　　]

    A．

    Diane Fossey

    B．

    the gorillas in Rwanda

    C．

    the protection of the gorillas

    D．

    the film Gorillas in the Mist

    (2)

    We can learn from the text that ________

    [　　]

    A．

    Gorillas in the Mist was based on Fossey's experiences

    B．

    lowland gorillas live longer than mountain gorillas

    C．

    King Kong showed us that a gorilla is admirable

    D．

    Diane Fossey was murdered by a gorilla

    (3)

    What message can we get from the two photos in the magazine?

    [　　]

    A．

    Gorillas are man's close friends．

    B．

    Both man and the gorilla need to be saved．

    C．

    Young gorillas are as lovely as human babies．

    D．

    Man should live peacefully with the gorill

    答案：1．C;2．A;3．D;
    解析：

    (1)

    解析：本篇共四段，第一段通过介绍科学家研究大猩猩的方法— 像猩猩一样吃和走，来说明一种人与猩猩的关系，第二段通过两部影片，展示人们对自己和猩猩的认识；人是危险的动物？还是大猩猩？作者当然倾向于前者。第三段介绍了现存野外大猩猩的数量及数量减少的原因— 人的活动，第四段介绍了两幅照片及科学而幽默（虽然我们未必笑得出来）的语言介绍了大猩猩与人是平等的，而人是最具破坏性的，为了人的利益人要限制自己的行为，保护大猩猩（以及其他动物）。故本段论点是保护大猩猩。其余各项均是细节和论据，并非主题。

    (2)

    解析：第二段第一句可知。这部电影是根据Fossey's experience改编而成的。

    (3)

    解析：第四段的直接引语可知：人和大猩猩是平等的（同属哺乳类动物），为了人类的利益，要保护大猩猩。

    　　Once upon a time, there was a man who was so famous that everyone in his country knew him．

    　　One day, the famous man was sitting in a restaurant with his sister．“It must be great to be famous．Everyone tries to please you, and you can do whatever you want to,” said his sister．“It’s quite the opposite sometimes, in fact．Because I’m famous, I can’t do what I want to,” he denied．“But look, we’re sitting at the best table and eating the best food．We couldn’t sit here and eat this if you weren’t famous,” said his sister．“I’ll show you what I mean,” said he．

    　　The next day, the famous man picked up his sister and took her to another country．“I’m not at all famous here,” he said．“Let’s see how we get on．” Soon they found a restaurant, but it was very busy, so they had to queue．“This wouldn’t have happened if you were famous,” said his sister, but the famous man just smiled．

    　　When they finally got a table, it took the waiter years to bring what they ordered．And the food supposed to be hot was cold, and the food supposed to be cold was hot! Eventually, the famous man couldn’t stand any more and asked to see the manager．“This food is awful．We had to wait an hour for a seat, and the service is also very poor．Look, even my spoon is dirty!”

    　　Showing his horribly yellow teeth, the manager, smiling, said, “Well, that’s just bad luck for you．”

    　　“Don’t you know who I am?” asked the famous man．
