         We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place
    to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons most of them move to find food more easily,
    but others move to get away from places that are too crowded. When cold weather comes, many birds move
    to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The
    most famous migration (迁移) is probably the migration of the fish, which is called "salmon". This fish is born
    in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its
    birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mice. They
    leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes
    they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
         Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobsters (龙虾). Every year, when the season
    of bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody
    knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go. So, sometimes we know why humans and animals
    move from one place to another, but at other times we don't. Maybe living things just like to travel.
    1. Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to _____.
    [     ]
    A. give birth
    B. enjoy warmer weather
    C. find food more easily
    D. find beautiful places
    2. The fish called "salmon" spends a long life in _____.
    [     ]
    A. salt water
    B. rivers
    C. fresh water
    D. its birthplace
    3. The mice in northern Europe move when _____.
    [     ]
    A. they give birth
    B. the weather is bad
    C. the place gets too crowded
    D. they haven't enough food
    4. The lobsters move _____.
    [     ]
    A. to the fresh water
    B. to the sea floor
    C. at a certain time
    D. to find more food
    5. What is the main idea of the passage?
    [     ]
    A. Animals move in order to find food more easily.
    B. The migration of the fish called "salmon" is the most famous migration.
    C. Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel.
    D. Sometimes we know why and how living things move from one place to
        another, but sometimes we don't.

         Parents should stop blaming themselves because there's not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager
    (十几岁的孩子) problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain a wonderful,
    reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
         I've seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right
    from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman.
    I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling (懒散地躺) himself on the sofa in full length, he made
    no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick
    glance at me. His mother was ashamed, "I don't know what to do with him these days," she said. "He's
    forgotten all the manners we taught him."
         He hasn't forgotten them. He's just decided that he's not going to use them. She confessed (坦白) that she
    would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
         Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture,reach across the table, stare
    at me and say, "I don't like your dress; it's ugly." One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school.
    The other has left home.
         "Where did we go wrong?" her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than
    the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.
    1. This text is most probably written by _____.
    A. a specialist in teenager studies
    B. a headmaster of a middle school
    C. a parent with teenage children
    D. a doctor for mental health problems
    2. The underlined word "it" in the second paragraph refers to _____.
    A. the change from good to bad that's seen in a child
    B. the way that parents often blame themselves
    C. the opinion that a child has of his parents
    D. the advice that parents want their children to follow
    3. The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as _____.
    A. lazy
    B. quiet

         Honeybees are disappearing for unknown reasons around the United States. Last winter, bees disappeared
    from 23 percent of American beekeeping businesses. Causes of the occurrence, however, have remained a
    puzzle. 　　
         Now, scientists from several universities and the United States Department of Agriculture say they have a
    possible explanation for the bee decline (数量下降). It is a little known virus called Israeli acute-paralysis virus
    (IAPV).The virus kills bees. Researchers in Israel first described it in 2004, but until now, bee experts haven't
    paid much attention to it. 　　
         When trying to find out why the bees were disappearing, a research team at Columbia University studied
    bee communities, some with and others without decline. The research turned up large numbers of two types
    of fungi (真菌) once believed of causing the bee decline. The research results, however, showed that the
    fungi were almost as common in communities without a decline as they were in communities with a decline.
    The research concluded that the two fungi probably weren't the cause. 　　
         Studies of the presence of IAPV, however, showed more interesting information. In those studies, done
    by a team at Pennsylvania State University in University Park, the virus showed up in 83 percent of samples
    from communities with symptoms. Only five percent of samples from symptomless communities had it. 　　
         Scientists still don't know whether IAPV can single-handedly cause the bee decline. They believe that even
    if the virus is making communities sick, it could have a partner in crime. It's possible, for instance, that insects
    or chemicals in the environment weaken bees, making them more likely to catch IAPV. 　　
         Scientists are still trying to figure out how IAPV came to the United States. The United States now allows
    bee products to be imported from Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. If it turns out that this trade is
    spreading disease, the rules might eventually change.
    1. According to the passage, IAPV is a virus that _____. 　　
    [     ]
    A. is difficult to be killed 　　
    B. is spread by a kind of fungi 　　
    C. is still not fully understood 　　
    D. is caused by the imported bee products
    2. From the third and fourth paragraphs, we know researchers draw their conclusion through _____. 　　
    [     ]
    A. calculating 　　　　
    B. comparing 　　
    C. examining　　　　　
    D. investigating
    3. The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph probably means _____. 　　
    [     ]
    A. the virus is not only among insects 　　
    B. the virus could also cause other damages 　　
    C. the virus is not the only cause for the bee decline 　　
    D. the virus may be caused by the polluted environment
    4. What is the best title for the passage? 　　
    [     ]
    A. Symptoms of LAPV 　　
    B. A Virus-IAPV 　
    C. Fungi and Virus 　　
    D. Disappearing Bees

         When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance, the arts are unavoidably
    at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. Too often it is viewed as mere
    entertainment, but certainly not an education priority (优先). This view is shortsighted. In fact, music education
    is beneficial and important for all students.
         Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their
    thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just as
    surely as does a Schubert song. The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into
    their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music expresses our
    character and values. It gives us identity as a society.
         Music provides a kind of perception (感知) that cannot be acquired any other way. Science can explain how
    the sun rises and sets. The arts explore emotive (情感的) meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every
    possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it
    all. The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific
    symbols. They are ways we human beings "talk" to each other. They are the language of civilization through
    which we express our fears, our curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes.
         The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When
    we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take away
    from them the meanings that music expresses. 
         Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do. Music is an important way
    we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love. So music education is far
    more necessary than people to realize.
    1. According to Paragraph 1, students _____.
    A. regard music as a way of entertainment
    B. disagree with their parents on education
    C. view music as an overlooked subject
    D. prefer the arts to science
    2. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to _____.
    A. compare it with rock music
    B. show music identifies a society
    C. introduce American musical traditions
    D. prove music influences people's lifestyles
    3. According to the passage. the arts and science _____.
    A. approach the world from different angles
    B. explore different phenomena of the world
    C. express people's feelings in different ways
    D. explain what it means to be human differently
    4. What is the main idea of the passage?
    A. Music education deserves more attention.
    B. Music should be of top education priority.
    C. Music is an effective communication tool.
    D. Music education makes students more imaginative.

         It is hard to track the blue whale, which has almost been killed off by commercial whaling. Attaching radio
    devices to it is difficult and visual sightings are too unreliable to give real insight into its behavior.
         So biologists were delighted early this year when, with the help of the US Navy, they were able to track a
    particular blue whale for 43 days recording its sounds. This was possible because of the Navy's formerly top
    secret system of underwater listening devices across the oceans.
         Tracking whales is but one example of an exciting new world just opening to civilian scientists after the
    cold war as the Navy starts to share and partly uncover its global network of underwater listening system built
    over the decades to.track the ships of potential enemies.
         Earth scientists announced at a news conference recently that they had used the system for closely
    observing a deep-sea volcanic eruption for the first time and that they planned similar studies. Other scientists
    have proposed to use the network for tracking ocean currents and measuring changes in the ocean and global
    temperatures. Different layers of ocean water can act as channels for sounds focusing them in the same way
    a stethoscope (听诊器) does when it carries faint noises from a patient's chest to a doctor's ear. This focusing
    is the main reason that even relatively weak sounds in the ocean, especially low-frequency ones, can often
    travel thousands of miles.
    1. The underwater listening system was originally designed ____.
    [     ]
    A. to trace and locate enemy ships
    B. to observe deep-sea volcanic eruptions
    C. to study the movement of ocean currents
    D. to replace the global radio communications network
    2. The deep-sea listening system makes use of ____.
    [     ]
    A. the ability of sounds to travel at high speed
    B. the top-level technology of focusing sounds under water
    C. the unique characteristic of layers of ocean water in carrying sounds
    D. low-frequency sounds traveling across different layers of water
    3. What can we infer from the passage?
    [     ]
    A. New radio devices are developed for tracking blue whales.
    B. Blue whales are no longer endangered with the help of the new system.
    C. Opinions differ on the use of military technology.
    D. Military technology has great potential in civilian use.
    4. Which of the following is TRUE about the US Navy underwater listening network?
    [     ]
    A. It is now partly available to civilian scientists.
    B. It is a must in protecting endangered species.
    C. It has been replaced by a more advanced system.
    D. It became useless to the military after the cold war.
    5. What's the passage chiefly about?
    [     ]
    A. An effort to protect an endangered marine species.
    B. The civilian use of a military detecting system.
    C. The exposure of a US Navy top-secret weapon.
    D. A new way to look into the behavior of blue whales.

         Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help
    lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread
    all-round good cheer.
         Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a
    husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张)
    levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners-while they performed 5 minutes of mental
    arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a
    close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller
    change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to-baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people
    also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more
    relaxed (放松) around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don't judge.
          A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have
    an effect on your eating habits. Researchers a Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36
    fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs a separate group of 56 people without
    pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight.
    Their dogs did even better, losing an average or 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog
    owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise
    overall - mostly with their dogs-and found it worth doing.

    1. What does the text mainly discuss?
    A. What pets bring to their owners.
    B. How pets help people calm down.
    C. People's opinions of keeping pets.
    D. Pet's value in medical research.
    2. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if _____.
    A. he has a pet companion
    B. he has less stress of work
    C. he often does mental arithmetic
    D. he is taken care of by his family
    3. According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?
    A. They have lower blood pressure.
    B. They become more patient.
    C. They are less nervous.
    D. They are in higher spirits.
    4. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that _____.

    A. people with dogs did more exercise
    B. dog lost the same weight as people did
    C. dogs liked exercise much more than people did

         On October 19, 1959, the first Special English program was broadcast on the Voice of America. It was
    an experiment. The goal was to communicate by radio in clear and simple English with people whose native
    language was not English. Experts said the goal was admirable (令人敬畏的), but the method would not
    work. They were proved wrong. The Special English programs quickly became some of the most popular
    on VOA. And they still are.
         Forty years later, Special English continues to communicate with people who are not fluent in English.
    But during the years its role has expanded. It also helps people learn American English. And it provides
    listeners, even those who are native English speakers, with information they cannot find elsewhere.
         Today, Special English broadcasts around the world seven days a week, five times a day. Each half-hour
    broadcast begins with 10 minutes of the latest news followed by 20 minutes of feature programming. There
    is a different short feature every weekday about science, development, agriculture and environment, and on
    the weekend, about news events and American idioms.
         Three elements make Special English unique. It has a limited vocabulary of 1,500 words. Most are simple
    words that describe objects, actions or emotions. Special English is written in short, simple sentences that
    contain only one idea. And Special English is spoken at a slower pace, about two-thirds the speed of Standard
    English. This helps people learning English hear each word clearly. It also helps people who are English
    speakers understand complex subjects.
         Through the years, Special English has become a very popular tool for teaching English, even though it
    was not designed as a teaching program. It succeeds in helping people learn English in a non-traditional way.
    In countries around the world, English teachers assign Special English to their students. They praise it for
    improving their students' ability to understand American English and for the content of the programs.
    Universities and private companies in many countries produce packages of Special English materials for
    students' use.
    1. At the beginning, Special English program was _____.
    A. well received
    B. rejected by native people
    C. doubted by some professionals
    D. intended for teaching English
    2. Which of the following are the elements that make Special English unique?
        a. limited vocabulary
        b. short simple sentences
        c. good communication method
        d. slow speed
        e. interesting feature programming
    A. a, b, e
    B. a, c, d
    C. a, b, d
    D. b, d, e
    3. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A. Special English has been founded for less than 50 years.
    B. Native English speakers don't go in for Special English much.
    C. Special English usually starts with 20 minutes of the latest news.
    D. People can learn some idioms from Special English.
    4. From the last paragraph we can infer that _____.
    A. Listening to Special English can be a student's homework
    B. Listening to Special English can improve the content of the program
    C. Some students record the Special English material for sale

         In most American high schools holiday panics, part-time jobs, social activities and weekend dances are as
    much a part of a student's life as studying for a final exam.
         The graduating students of a high school are referred to as seniors and their final year is filled with events
    which become the valuable memories of their high school days. This is the time to learn the social skills which
    will guide them through life and the polite social manners needed for participation in their adult life to follow.
         In this final year, therefore, gaining the school ring is looked on as one of the most important occasions of
    the year. The school ring somehow is a symbol which reminds the students of the memories of the four years
    spent there.
         The school ring for many students is very important because it creates a sense of social relation among the
    class and is an object that causes the students to remember the importance of one's high school education. This
    ring is usually impressed with the name of the student, the name of the school and the year of graduation. A
    semi-precious birthstone is placed in the center of the ring and it shows an identity that with the ring, there is
    a sense of belongings, a connection with the school and all the memories joined to that association.
         Besides receiving their rings, all of the seniors also look forward to their special privileges (特权). The
    purpose of these privileges is to prepare the students for the adult world where they will have to make
    responsible decisions on their own.
    1. According to the passage, a symbol of the connection between a student and his school is
    A. the graduation celebration
    B. the school ring
    C. the social activities
    D. the four years spent in school
    2. What do the students think of the social skills during their development?
    A. The students think them of great importance.
    B. The students think they are not as important as their final exams.
    C. The students think of little about their influence on them.

         Sometimes we cry because we are sad and sometimes because we are extremely happy. An irritant (刺激
    物),such as onion (洋葱) smell or grains of sand in the eye,can also make cry. In this case tears perform an
    obvious role in getting rid of substances that might harm the surface of the eye.
         Dr. William Frey of the Dry Eye and Tear Research Center at St. Paul in Minnesota,USA,believes that tears
    from emotional causes may perform a similar role. He thinks that crying could get rid of emotional stress by
    washing away a chemical in the blood caused by strong emotions. To prove his theory, he hopes first to
    identify this chemical and then see if it is found in tears of sadness or happiness.
         So far, Dr. Frey has failed to find out the difference between emotional tears and tears caused by an irritant
    in the eye. This may be because these substances themselves cause a degree of stress and emotion. What he
    has identified in all tears is a variety of biochemicals (生化物) which are one of the causes of stress. A more
    detailed study may help us understand why sufferers from stress-related disorders cry less often than healthy
    people. Dr. Frey is also very interested to see if there are any physiological (生理学的) explanations for why
    women, in general, cry five times more often than men,on average.
    1. The main purpose of Dr. Frey's study of tears is to _____.
    A. show that there are two types of tears,caused by irritants and by emotions
    B. find out the cause of stress-related problems and emotional disorders
    C. explain why women cry more often than men
    D. prove that tears can remove a chemical in the blood caused by strong emotions
    2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A. Tears fail to help get rid of emotional stress.
    B. Irritants in the eye result in tears without causing stress and emotion.
    C. Healthy people cry more often than those with stress-related problems.
    D. The biochemical identified by Dr. Frey has nothing to do with stress.
    3. We can learn from the passage that _____.
    A. crying does us more harm than good
    B. inner feelings don't affect our bodies
    C. sorrow may cause some chemicals in our blood
    D. emotional tears are different from tears caused by irritants in the eye
    4. Dr. Frey believes that tears from emotional causes may play a role in getting rid of _____.
    A. emotional stress by washing away a chemical in the blood
    B. onion smell or grains of sand
    C. sufferings from irritants
    D. substances that might not harm the surface of the eye
