Snakes are quite useful,but that doesn't seem to matter.Snakes help control the population of mice.Without snakes,perhaps we would find mice everywhere.Most of us,however,would rather see a mouse than a snake. The poison argument(毒性的争论)is a strong one.Some snakes are poisonous,and this causes people's death.However,the poisonous snakes are only a small number.We can't say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones. And what do we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them.These people learn about them,find them out,and watch them carefully.Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded.They are able to put aside differences and welcome the snake as a friend. Whatever the reason for our like or dislike,snakes do something good in the circle of life.They would prefer to be left alone,and that is what we should do.If you're lucky,you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime.That would be fine with most of us. 31.How does the writer describe the appearance of snakes? A.Something even without legs. B.Something not popular among people. C.A person who is neutral. D.A person who cares about nothing. 32.Which of the following shows that most people dislike snakes? A.They welcome snakes as their best friends. B.They would rather see a mouse than a snake. C.They wonder why snakes can cause great fear. D.They learn about snakes and watch them carefully. 33.Although some snakes are poisonous, . A.they cause many people's death B.they control the population of mice C.they are not dangerous to people D.they are only a small number 34.People who really like snakes are open-minded because they . A.are able to put aside differences B.think all the snakes are poisonous C.are able to deal with poisonous snakes D.take part in the poison argument 35.The last paragraph seems to tell us that the writer . A.dislikes snakes B.has the best luck C.loves snakes D.prefers to be left alone 答案 [语篇解读] 本文是关于蛇的文章。 31.A 由第一段中的“What I wonder is why something even without legs causes such great fear.”可推断,作者用“something even without legs”来描述蛇的外形,故答 案为 A。 32.B 由第二段中的“Most of us, however, would rather see a mouse than a snake.” 可知答案为 B。 33.D 通读第三段可知,尽管有一些蛇有毒,但它们的数量很少。故答案为 D。 34.A 由第四段中的“The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded.

You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn't enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family's shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life? Probably not. But that's what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025. Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply (供应). Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told Times:“In a good week we'll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.” Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water—at very high prices. “A lot of people can't afford it,” she said. The average (平均)person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic(立方)meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty(贫困)line of 1,000 cubic meters. The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen. 36. is the name of the capital city of Yemen. A.Sana B.Lahej C.Hannan D.Times 37.A report shows that Sana will have as early as 2025. A.enough drinking water to use B.no drinking water to use C.no private companies D.more water pollution 38.What does the underlined word “shortage” in the third paragraph mean in Chinese? A.充足 B.短缺 C.干旱 D.需求 39.We can infer(推断)from the passage that . A.the poor don't have to worry about the water supply B.the 18-year-old boy is from a poor family C.private companies make a lot of money D.Lahej is a beautiful place 40.Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage? A.How to Save Water B.How to Make Use of Seawater C.How People Use Water Fully D.Yemen is Facing Serious Water Shortage 答案 [语篇解读] 本文讲述了也门的缺水问题。由于缺水问题严重,政府经常切断水的供应。有钱 的人可以买水来保证自己能够有足够的水可以使用,但水的价格太高,许多人都买不起。 36.A 在第二段中提到了“...Yemen is going to be the first country in the world...”以 及其后的“...the capital, Sana...”,由此可知,Sana 是 Yemen 的首都,故答案为 A。 37.B 由第二段中的“According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.”可知答案为 B。 38.B 画线的词是 shortage,结合上下文可推断,由于水的“短缺”问题,政府经常切断水的 供应,故答案为 B。 39.C 通读第四段可推断答案为 C。 40.D 通读全文可知,适合本文的最佳答案是 D“也门面临严重的缺水问题”。 C Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute,Indiana.Last year,he taught his students about the world's rainforests.They learned that rainforests are important because the plants and animals of the rainforest give us food,wood,and medicine. Destruction of the world's rainforests is a serious problem.Unluckily,rainforests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres per minute! As part of a class project,Myers' students bought three acres of rainforest in Central America.They paid $25 per acre.The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not destroyed.The students became so interested in rainforests that they decided to get a closer look at a real rainforest. So last June,Myers and four of his students went on a seven-day trip to visit the rainforests of Costa Rica.“The trip was wonderful.It was a very exciting experience,” said Myers. At the beginning of the week,the group took a boat ride down a river.They saw alligators and crocodiles.In the middle of the week,a guide took Myers and his students into the rainforest.“The monkeys were not happy that we were in their forest.They broke small branches off the trees and threw them at us,” one of the students said.“It was a great learning experience for all of us,”said Myers. Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving the plants,animals,food,and culture.During the last few days the group had time to do fun activities.They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding,and visited Costa Rica's active volcano. Myers hopes to make the trip every year with a different group of kids. 41.How much did Myers' students pay for the rainforest they bought? A.$25. B.$75. C.$80.

Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”.That means we are always throwing away old things and buying new ones.Many times,if you no longer need something,someone else just might need it.For example,if your brother is old enough not to play with his plastic bike,why not give it to another family who has a little kid so that they don't need to buy one?And one less large plastic toy doesn't need to be produced. Recycling(回收利用)has never been easier.Many organizations will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require(要求)it.Tell your mom or dad you want to become“Chief of Recycling”for your family.Now that you know what things you can recycle,find a place to keep them.Make sure you encourage everyone in your house to think whether things can be reused or recycled before they're thrown away. Almost everyone likes traveling.But next time before you travel around the world,take a look at your own backyard.Is there a place where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden?If so,get there and get your hands dirty.Then you can watch with pride as your tree takes root,and your garden plants grow into big plants full of ripe,red tomatoes or tiny,juicy blueberries.Who knew being green would taste so good? 46.In the first paragraph,the writer introduces the topic of the passage by .
