C Two farmers in northeast China Heilongjiang Province have been sentenced to nine and five years in jail because of eating a tiger, the local court said on Tuesday. Zhang Licheng and Gong Weisheng, both farmers in Dongning County , were put into prison for the crime of ille gally hunting and killing endangered wild animal species, according to the People ’s Court of Dongning County. The Siberian tiger, mistakenly trapped but intentionally （故意的） eaten by the farmers, was an endangered animal which is under the first-class state protection in the country . The farmers, living in a village very close to forests, used to trap wild animals like roe deer and hares when the dy ing tiger unfortunately caught in their trap in February 2003. Knowing that tiger trade was illegal, Zhang and Gong, however, thought eating a dead tiger ’s meat was not breaking the law. They decided to cover it up and therefore did not report to the relevant authorities, the court said. Six days later they secrectly carried home the tiger that had died of hunger as they had expected.The two farmers burnt the tiger ’s skin, ate its meat and hid away the bones, according to the court. The crime was uncovered and reported to the police about a year later and the transgressors （违反者） were arrested on Jan.16, 2004. 64. When the two farmers found the tiger trapped, they ______________. A. wanted to kill it for its skin B. were pleased to have the chance to eat its meat C. hoped to sell it at good price D. reported the case to some departments of the government 65.

China values the protection of endangered animals D. farmers in Dongning County won ’ t like endangered wild animal species any longer 66. What is the best title for the passage? A.

D Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there ’s no need for a lot of s cientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children ’s curiosity . Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven -year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “ textbook questions ” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, “ Now that we ’ ve finished with y our lists, do you have questions of your own about science? ” After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “ Have you ever seen what a grassshopper（ 蚱蜢）eats? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why? ” This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours. Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 y ears have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “ wait time ” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers. Thirdl y, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don ’ t jump in with “ That ’s right ” or “ Very good. ” These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick going by saying “ That ’s interesting ” or “ I ’d never thought of it that way before, ” or coming up with more questions or ideas. Never push a child to “ think ” . It doesn ’ t make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling him what to do. What ’s more, this can turn a con versation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target for your disagreement. Lastly, show, don ’ t tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than an y lessons children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnify ing glass （放大 镜） , and they ’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates （蒸发） , set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop. 68. According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is ___________. A. to let them see the world around B. to share the child ren ’s curiosity C. to explain difficult phrases about science D. to supply the children with lab equipment 69. Children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults _______. A. ask them to answer quickly B. wait for one or two seconds after a question C. tell them to answer the next day D. wait at least three seconds after a question 70. The author mentioned all of the following techniques for adults to share with their children ’s curiosity EXCEPT that adults should _______________. A. tell their children stories instead of reciting facts B. offer their children chances to see things for themselves C. be patient enough when their children answer questions D. encourage their children to ask questions of their own 第二节（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。 What is your favorite color?

They think that fresh water comes from such a variety of sources that it is alway s sufficient for use. Such an opinion leads to shocking waste of water. As a matter of fact, the earth is short of fresh water. Furthermore, with rapid growth of the world ’s population, the rising demand for water by industry , and the serious pollution of our surroundings, the world is facing the danger of running out of fresh water. Actually , in some big cities, fresh water cannot meet the daily needs. Therefore, to find new way s to save water is an urgent task. First, we should pass strict laws to control any waste of water. Second, scientists must work even harder to purify sea water and polluted water, and try to find substitutes to reduce the use of fresh water.
