No. It looks like a fish, but it is really a mammal (哺乳动物). Then what’s the world’s largest fish? It’s the whale shark.‎ Although the whale shark is our biggest fish and lives in many oceans around the world, few people have ever heard of it. Scientists have not been studying whale sharks for very long. Much more needs to be learned about them.‎ A whale shark is sometimes called a “gentle giant (温柔的巨人)”. It likes to be alone and doesn’t care a bit about divers or humans. The biggest whale shark weighed 24,250 pounds and was nearly 40 feet long. This makes it heavier and longer than a school bus. ‎ Inside its huge mouth are great numbers of very small teeth. To count all of them, you’ll need to do some maths. The whale shark’s teeth are arranged in rows. There are between eleven and thirteen rows on each jaw (颚) and around three hundred teeth in each row. ‎ However, the whale shark rarely uses its teeth. It does not chew or bite its food. Large amounts of water are pulled into its mouth and then pushed out through its gills (鳃). ‎ For a few months every year, a group of whale sharks comes to Ningaloo Reef, off Western Australia. This gives scientists a wonderful chance to study the large fish. Whale sharks do live in other oceans of the world, but no one knows their population. It is possible that our biggest fish may need protecting. It is one of the reasons why scientists continue to learn all they can about these gentle giants.‎ ‎( ) 41. Little is known about whale sharks because scientists _____.‎ ‎ A. are not interested in learning about them ‎ B. find them too difficult to catch ‎ C. do not know the best places to find them ‎ D. have studied them for a short time ‎( ) 42. Which sentence can tell us that whale sharks are gentle?‎ ‎ A. They have large mouths.‎ ‎ B. They leave divers alone.‎ ‎ C. They have small eyes. ‎ ‎ D. They live in many oceans.‎ ‎( ) 43. How does the writer help us know what the whale shark’s mouth looks like?‎ ‎ A. By giving reasons.‎ ‎ B. By describing colours.‎ ‎ C. By comparing sizes. ‎ ‎ D. By using numbers.‎ ‎( ) 44. The fifth paragraph is mainly about _____.‎ ‎ A. how a whale shark eats B. what a whale shark eats ‎ C. how different fish use their gills ‎ D. what’s inside a whale shark’s mouth ‎( ) 45. Which of the following is the best title for the article? ‎ A. Gentle Giants B. The Diary of a Sailor ‎ C. The Largest Animal D. My Life on the Sea ‎ 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题，共65分)‎ 四、词汇运用(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)‎ A)根据句子意思，从方框中选用恰当的单词或短语填空。（8题）‎ to achieve a balance , peacefully , were operated on , is sold out ‎ ‎ had enough money , didn’t fall asleep, flying, getting angry ‎1.

You are planting a very young tree now and it’ll take years to give fruit. You certainly don’t hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree. ” The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile, “Tell me, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy? ”“Sure,” the man did not know why he asked this question. “Then tell me this,” he said, “Who planted the fig trees?” “Why-why? I don’t know.” “You see, sir.” went on the old man,“Our forefathers(祖先) planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.” ‎ The rich man was quiet and said, “You are right，my good man.

The factory owner could beat a child who fell asleep or was not fast enough. Both parents and teachers could do the same. ‎ Today, there are many laws about children all over the world. Some people think children must obey rules or they should be punished，others do not agree. The Inuits or Eskimos in Alaska almost never punish their children. The parents don’t hit them. If the children go too far，the parents punish them by making fun of them. ‎ Children in other parts of the world are not as lucky as Eskimo children. American parents can spank(打……臀部) their children at home，but a teacher cannot hit a child in a public school. This is also true in Germany. In contrast(对比), it is against the law for anyone to hit a child in Sweden. Swedish parents cannot spank their children. The children also have a special government official who works for their rights. There is even a plan for children to divorce from their parents though this is not a law yet！ ‎ 根据短文内容回答下列各问题。‎ ‎24. How were children treated in industrial countries 100years ago? ‎ ‎________________________________________.‎ ‎25. What does the author mean by “go too far?”‎ ‎________________________________________.‎ ‎26.
