7.People have smoked cigarettes for a long time now.The tobacco which is used to make cigarettes was first grown in what is now part of the United States.Christopher Columbus,who discovered America,saw the Indians smoking.Soon the dried leaves were transported to Europe where smoking began to catchon.In the late 1800s,the Turks made cigarettes popular.
Cigarette smoke contains at least two harmful substances,tar and nicotine.Tar,which forms as the tobacco burns,damages the lungs and therefore affects breathing.Nicotine,which is found in the leaves,causes the heart to beat faster and increases the breathing rate.Nicotine in large can kill a person by stopping a person's breathing muscles.Smokers usually take in small amounts that the body can quickly break down.
Nicotine can make new smokers feel dizzy(头晕) or sick to their stomachs.The heart rate for young smokers increases 2to 3beats per minute.Nicotine also lowers skin temperature and reduces blood flow in the legs and feet.It plays an important role in increasing smokers'risk of heart disease and stroke.
Smoking cigarettes is dangerous.Cigarette smoking was the cause of lung cancer and several other deadly diseases.
21..Tobacco first appeared inD.
A.Asia     B.Africa    C.Europe     D.America
22.The following effects are caused by Nicotine EXCEPT thatC.
A.It can make new smokers feel dizzy or sick to their stomachs
B.It lowers skin temperature
C.It causes the heart to beat less fast
D.Nicotine will probably kill a person if a smoker takes in too much of it.
23.What's the main idea of this passage?B
A.Where did cigarettes come from?
B.The effect of smoking on your body.
C.How to smoke is healthy?
D.Who is the first smoker?

4.The children were always good during August,especially when it got near the twenty-third.It was on this day that the great silver spaceship carrying Professor Hugo's Interplanetary Zoo settled down for its annual six-hour visit to the Chicago area.
Before daybreak the crowds would form,long lines of children and adults,each one grasping their dollar,and waiting with excitement to see what strange creatures the Professor would bring this year.In the past they had sometimes been treated to three-legged creatures from Venus,or tall,thin men from Mars,or even snakelike horrors from somewhere more distant.This year,as the great ship settled slowly in the huge parking area,they watched with awe as the sides slowly slid up to reveal the familiar barred cages.
In them were some wild race of nightmare-small,horse-like animals that moved with quick motions and constantly made high-pitched sounds.The citizens of Earth pushed around as Professor Hugo's crew quickly collected the waiting dollars.The good Professor called into his microphone,"People of Earth,this year you see a real treat for your single dollar-the little-known horse-spider people of Kaan-across a million miles of space brought at great expense."
The crowds slowly filed by,at once horrified and fascinated by these strange creatures that looked like horse but ran up the walls of their cages like spiders."This is certainly worth a dollar!"one man remarked,hurrying away.
As the ship rose from the ground the Earth people agreed that this had been the very best zoo yet…
Some two months and three planets later,the silver ship of Professor Hugo settled at last onto the familiar planet of Kaan,and the horse-spider creatures filed quickly out of their cages.In one home,the she-creature was happy to see the return of her mate and offspring."It was a long time you were gone.Was it good?"
The he-creature nodded."The little one enjoyed it especially.We visited eight worlds and saw many things."
"On the place called Earth it was the best.The creatures there wear garments over their skins,and they walk on two legs."the little one smiled.
"But isn't it dangerous?"asked the she-creature.
"No,"her mate answered."There are bars to protect us from them.We remain right in the ship.Next time you must come with us.It is well worth the nineteen commocs it costs."
And the little one nodded."It was the very best Zoo ever…"
21.Which of the following about Professor Hugo's zoo is true?B
A.The animals in the zoo were dangerous.
B.The horse-spider people thought the Earth people were the animals in the zoo.
C.Professor Hugo forced the horse-spider people to travel to Earth.
D.The zoo is open to protect animals with special features.
22.What can be inferred about the people on Earth from the passage?C
A.They were able to talk to the horse-spider people.
B.They knew the horse-spider people were dangerous and cruel.
C.They were afraid of the horse-spider people.
D.They were cheated by those horse-spider people.
23.What does"file by"in Paragraph 4 mean?A
A.Walk by.B.Run away.C.Hurry in.D.Stand by.
24.Where does this text probably come from?A
A.Science fiction.
B.Children's literature.
