    We’d been flying for hours, deeper and deeper into the desert of southeastern Niger. The mission: to find what is probably the last wild population of the great Saharan antelope called the addax (旋角羚)—the most endangered animal of its size in Africa.
    Pilot Peter Ragg flew our bright red helicopter low over two parallel dunes (沙丘). The pale sand below us was dotted by the black bushes, the plants that are favorite food for the addax. Then, almost as if the dune extruded (使突出) them, two perfect addaxes appeared. Their long tails swung from side to side as they ran, heads held high on thick necks, horns reaching for the sky. We made a few turns in the plane, then let them be. In just a few seconds they were swallowed again by the Sahara. Soon they could just as easily disappear from the planet.
    In September 2004 the government of Niger and a small NGO called SOS Faune du Niger surveyed this last known pocket of wild addaxes. They counted 128 individuals. Since then, the number has dropped as hunters have taken more for meat. How many addaxes remain in the Sahara is anybody’s guess, but those that do survive could be considered the living dead: There may not be a viable (能生存的) population left to reproduce.
    I’m now helping to make an emergency plan for the last wild addaxes. With a few hundred thousand dollars, some trucks, and a strong group with the local Toubou guides, we may just be able to save these guys from extinction.
    36. What do the addaxes in the passage usually eat?
    A. Vegetables. B. Black bushes.       C. Grass.                    D. Fruits.
    37. All of the following descriptions of the addax are true EXCEPT that ____.
    A. its tail is long                                    B. its neck is thick   
    C. its legs are short                             D. its horns are long
    38. What does the writer probably mean by saying that “There may not be a viable population left to reproduce”?
    A. Wild addaxes will die out soon unless effective measures are taken.
    B. The number of wild addaxes will increase if they are not hunted.
    C. Wild addaxes cannot support themselves any longer.
    D. Humans cannot survive without enough addaxes.
    39. It can be inferred that the writer of the passage might be ____.
    A. a journalist  B. an official    C. an engineer                D. a zoologist
    36-39 BCAD

    Childish Voice
    When I was a young child, my parents often told me that it was time to teach a man everything. I didn’t understand and wondered why   36   had such a big influence   37   a person. I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as an adult．But now,   38   I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel   39   to express my own   40   on this saying. I know that I’m just a high school student with very   41   experiences. There are still many things   42   me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice. 
    I once read this sentence: “To make this world a happy place to live, you’d better   43   youreself and your heart , instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about life   44   . There are so many things around us that    45   our will. We can’t force life    46    our wishes.The earth won’t stop turning no matter whether we   47   it or not. What we can do is just to make ourselves  48  the world. I think we should learn to accept   49   life gives us, no matter whether it’s the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy.
    Deeply moved by the pop song Grandmother (by Jay Chou), I always try to   50   every pleasant thing in my life, but now I see I don’t catch most of the pleasant moments. It is more   51  that they slip by and leave you feeling   52   . I realize that I’m not just living   53   myself and that there are the others around me I should think of .They all pay attention to my growing up, even if it’s just a little progress. 
    Everyone has his or her own attitude towards life, be it positive or   54    . It doesn’t matter, I think. There is one   55   that should be obeyed—and that’s to make this world better.

    How old was I? I can’t recall. Maybe I was only 10, about to turn 11, making it the first Christmas after my father left, and left me to fill that sad, shattered place in my mother’s heart. Whenever it was, it was the Christmas the magic changed: the year I stopped being a wide-eyed child and tried eagerly to play Father Christmas myself. It was the Christmas of the coat.
    Mom first saw the coat at Tobias, one of the nicer women’s stores in our town’s little mall. It was a deep forest green. A long, heavy, wool dress coat with side pockets. Mom pulled it out from the rack（架） and held it up. “Long enough,”she murmured and slipped it on.
    “I need a new coat,” Mom smiled before the three-way mirror. She made any clothing look good, and this coat hugged her just right. She glanced at the price tag, then hung the coat back on the rack, pausing once more to feel the smooth brush of wool.
    Eighty-seven dollars. But I didn’t think twice. As we moved on through the mall, I found some excuse to come back and ask one of the Tobias ladies to hold the coat.
    At last I had the coat. The store ladies wrapped it in their biggest box with bright blue paper and a thick silver ribbon. I don’t remember how I got it home, but I can still feel the bursting excitement and pride that filled me each time I glimpsed at the beautifully wrapped gift hiding under my sweater. I would occasionally dig it out just to hold the box, to imagine the big space it would take up under our tree. Here it was ─ joy, peace, and love ─ all wrapped up, waiting for Mom’s loving gratitude.
    36. That the writer’s mother felt the coat before they left the store showed that ____.
    A. the coat was of good quality                 B. the coat was too expensive
    C. she liked the coat very much                D. she’d get it in the end
    37. The writer tried to act as Father Christmas in order to ____.
    A. show he grew up                                               B. show he missed his father
    C. bring his mother a surprise                            D. enjoy himself
    38. The writer hid the coat under his sweater in order to ____.
    A. imagine the space taken up under the Christmas tree
    B. feel the strong feeling to his mother on Christmas
    C. give his mother a big surprise on Christmas Day
    D. keep the new coat tidy and orderly in the box
    39. What can be the best title of this passage?
    A. A Merry Christmas                                  B. Christmas of the Coat
    C. A Deep Green Coat                                 D. Mother’s Merry Christmas

    C
    Attitude isn’t quite everything when it comes to being successful, but attitude plays a part in every stage of your life. A poor attitude gets more people fired than any other single factor, and a good attitude gets people jobs and helps them keep those jobs more than any other factor.
    Your attitude affects many people, from your family to the stranger on the street corner. Your attitude is particularly important when you face seemingly hopeless situations. Losing a job or friend because of a poor attitude is unfortunate －especially because a bad attitude can be fixed.
    You can find at least two ways to look at everything. A pessimist ( 悲观主义者) looks for difficulty in the opportunity, while an optimist looks for opportunity in difficulty . A poet of long ago put the difference between optimism and pessimism this way: Two men looked out from prison bars －one saw mud; the other saw stars.
    Unfortunately, many people look only at the problem and not at the opportunity that lies within the problem. Many employees complain about the difficulty of their jobs, for example, not realizing that if the job were simple, the employer would hire someone with less ability at a lower wage. A small coin can hide even the sun if you hold the coin close enough to your eye. So when you get too close to your problems, to think objectively(客观地 ) about them, try to keep in mind how your vision can be obstructed. Take a step back, and look at the situation from a new angle.
    You can’t do anything to change the fact that a problem exists, but you can do a great deal to find the opportunity within that problem. You’re guaranteed a better tomorrow by doing your best today and developing a plan of action for the tomorrows that lie ahead. Just remember to maintain a positive mental attitude.
    64. What does the author mean by saying the first sentence in Paragraph 1?
    A. If you have a good attitude, you will be successful.
    B. Your attitude makes a great influence on your life.
    C. Your attitude has nothing to do with your success.
    D. Your success is very important to your life.
    65. In Paragraph 3, the author shows us_________.
    A. two ways to look at everything      B. the definition of pessimist and optimist
    C. the ways to look for opportunity     D. the ways to look out from prison bars
    66. The author mentions the example of many employees in Paragraph 4 to tell people to_____.
    A. ignore the problem               B. look for opportunity in the problem
    C. wait for the problem to be solved    D. make their jobs easy to do
    67. The underline word “obstructed” in Paragraph 4 probably means________.
    A. blocked         B. dropped          C. improved         D. Shared
