It's made up of more than 1,800 coral islands, spreading over a sea area of about 90 thousand square kilometers on the Indian Ocean. People in Maldives believe in Islam. They must observe the religious rules strictly. However, tourists don’t need to follow these customs inside hotels, but they must do as the locals when they enter the community of the local people.‎ Jeju‎ ‎Island Jeju Island, also known as the ＂Islands of the Gods＂, is the biggest island of South Korea. It is a volcanic island with a pleasant climate. Its yearly average temperature is 16℃, which makes it the most attractive vacation stop in Northeast Asia. It has gained fame as a shopping paradise.

It is world-famous for its beautiful beaches. Some are quiet and tourist-friendly, and some are as luxurious as personal vacation beaches.

Every year thousands of tourists come here to admire the beauty of the tropic sea and the charming scene of the Great Barrier Reef. However, they seldom see any waiters and waitresses around as they work in and travel through a special tunnel(通道). This is why it's called the most secret resort.‎ ‎1.

He had rented a cottage in the country, although he rarely spent much time there. We understood the reason for this after our arrival: the cottage had no comfortable furniture in it, many of the windows were broken and the roof leaked, making the whole house damp.‎ On our first evening, we sat around the fire after supper listening to the stories which our uncle had to tell of his many adventures in distant countries. I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed; but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle’s exciting tales.‎ He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had once had when there was a loud crash from the bedroom above, the one where my brother and I were going to sleep.‎ ‎"It sounds as if the roof has fallen in!" cried out my uncle, with a loud laugh.‎ When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door, we could see nothing at first because of the thick clouds of dust which filled the room. When the dust began to clear, a strange sight met our eyes. A large part of the ceiling had fallen down, falling right on to the pillow of my bed. I was glad that I had stayed up late to listen to my uncle’s stories, otherwise I should certainly have been seriously injured, perhaps killed.‎ That night we all slept on the floor in the sitting room downstairs, not wishing to risk our lives by sleeping under a roof which might at any moment fall down on our heads. We left for London the very next morning and my uncle gave up his cottage in the country. This was not the kind of adventure he cared for either!‎ ‎4. Why did the uncle seldom spend much time in the country cottage?‎ A. Because the roof of the cottage was falling. ‎ B. Because the cottage was in bad condition.‎ C. Because he was used to living abroad. ‎ D. Because there was no furniture in it.‎ ‎5.

Which of the following can best describe the writer's uncle?‎ A. Adventurous and good at storytelling. ‎ B. Humorous and good at making jokes.‎ C. Dependable and generous with money. ‎ D. Considerate and sensitive to danger.‎ C As the world's resources become rarer because of continuing land development and the growing human population, the natural habitats of wild animals have continued to decrease. As a result, the survival of some species of wildlife is threatened. To help protect wildlife, a lot of practices should be carried out by environmentalist as well as the general public.‎ ‎    Create homes for species that are endangered because of losing their own natural habitats. Wildlife shelters should be developed, and habitats should be created in existing(现存的) national parks. Efforts(努力) should also be made to protect existing habits, such as providing food and water sources and limiting hunting. Breed(培育) endangered species in places such as zoos. Once the young animals grow up, they can be set free into the wild where they can continue to increase the population.‎ ‎    The general public may not realize that a species is endangered until it's too late. Educational programs making use of TV advertising and instructional meetings at national parks can be used to make the public know the situation.‎ ‎    The general public can help protect the wildlife by not hunting wild animals for sport or for a source of food. They should also stop supporting those who earn money from the illegal hunting of wild animals, such as hunters who kill animals for the only purpose of harvesting their body parts and selling them for money.‎ ‎    The public should avoid(避免) keeping wild animals as pets. This will limit the number of animals being tracked, trapped, sold and removed from their natural habitat.‎ ‎8. Which of the following is not the measure of protecting animal habitats?‎ A. Developing wildlife shelters.‎ B. Creating new habitats.‎ C. Setting young animals free in the wild.‎ D. Protecting the existing habitats.‎ ‎9. The underlined words "the situation" in Paragraph3 probably refer to the fact that ______.‎ A. the general public may not know species are endangered.‎ B. many endangered species are facing the danger of extinction.‎ C. people can do much to protect the endangered species.‎ D. human activities can affect the existence of species.‎ ‎10. We can learn from the passage that _______.‎ A. some people hunt animals and sell them as pets B. hunters get little money from hunting animals C. general public do nothing about protecting the wildlife now D. animal population becomes larger in the zoo ‎11. In which column(栏) of a newspaper can we read the passage?‎ A. Environment. B. Sports. C. Technology. D. Education.‎ D LEGO began as one man’s small business. But today, it is the second largest toy company in the world. The LEGO company sells small, brightly colored plastic bricks (积木). People can buy LEGO bricks in over 90 countries.‎ ‎ Ole Kirk Kristiansen from Denmark began his own business in 1932. He made products (产品) from wood including colorful wooden toys. Kristiansen’s young son, Godtfred, worked with him. Their business helped them make a lot of money.‎ By 1934, the Kristiansens named their company LEGO, which came from two Danish words, “leg” and “godt”， meaning “play well”. The LEGO company grew slowly. But it continued to create excellent wooden toys.‎ By 1947, the LEGO company began using a new material (材料) to make their toys — plastic. One of the toys they sold was called the Automatic Binding Brick. A person could put the bricks together to build something. But the bricks did not hold together easily. Still, they were a popular toy.‎ A few years later, in 1954, Godtfred Kirk Kristiansen had a big idea. He wanted all of the LEGO bricks to fit together. Finally, four years later, in 1958, the LEGO company found their answer. They invented the first modern style LEGO brick, which was similar to the Automatic Binding Brick but each piece would fit with any other piece.‎ Since that time, any toy that the LEGO company created would fit with any other toy they created. Today, LEGO is not only the second largest toy maker in the world, but also making its products a great way for children to learn creative building skills.‎ ‎12．When the LEGO company was set up, it ________.‎ A．had a rapid growth B．failed to attract children C．invited children to work with it D．was small but successful ‎13．What do we know about the Automatic Binding Brick?‎ A．It was liked by few people.

D．It was made of wood.‎ ‎14．The first modern style LEGO brick________.‎ A．fit together perfectly ‎ B． was created by Godtfred and his father C．was invented in the early 1950s ‎ D．differed greatly from the Automatic Binding Brick ‎15．What’s the best title for the text?‎ A．LEGO: Educational Toys ‎ B．LEGO: Play Well C．Toy Companies: From Small to Big ‎ D．Toy Companies: Never Too Late to Create 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎__16__ Moving from high school into college can be especially difficult because of the freedom students experience in college along with a new set of expectations.‎ In high school, students usually live at home, and their parents take care of all their physical needs such as food and housing. __17__ Parents are also there to offer help and make sure that the students' homework is done.
