Why did Erard Louw attach the phone-like device to the sheep he raises? A. Because he thought it was fun to do.B. Because the police there didnt care about animals.C. Because he liked hi-tech very much.D. Because he wanted to protect them against thieves.22. What does the underlined expression in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Try very hard to remember or think of something.B. Have a headache.C. Make the brain bigger.D. Shake the brain from side to side.23. You can most probably read this passage_. A. in a book B. in a dictionaryC. in a newspaper D. in a novel BScientists know of more than 1,000 volcanoes on the surface of Venus, Earths “sister” planet. A big question has been: Are they still active? The scientists say yes.Their evidence for recent volcanic activity on Venus es from a lava(熔岩) flow in the planets northern hemisphere. The flow is hotter than the rocks around, which means the lava might still be cooling off. “The flow we studied seems to be very young-it is still warm inside,” Nataliya Bondarenko said.Venus is a difficult planet to study from Earth because it is surrounded by thick clouds. Telescopes on Earth cant see through these clouds, so the best information about Venus es from spacecraft orbiting it.Bondarenko and her colleagues studied the lava flow using data from NASAs Magellan mission. That spacecraft spent four years in orbit around Venus and used radar to make a map of 98 percent of the planets surface. On October 11th, 1994, the mission ended, and the spacecraft plunged (跌落) through Venus heavy cloud cover and crashed onto the planet below.While in orbit, the Magellan craft sent microwaves, which can go through Venus clouds, to the surface. Microwaves are invisible and can be as long as three feet. These waves are a kind of energy, like light. And like light, they bounce off surfaces. The way the waves bounced off the Venus surface and back to the craft supplied information that the scientists used to estimate the temperature of various parts of the planets surface. Bondarenkos team found that the lava flow was hotter than its surroundings-which may mean the lava flow is in the process of cooling.The scientists say the lava flow cant be very old because if it were, it would have cooled off enough that Magellan wouldnt have noticed the difference in microwaves. She adds that the flow appears in a 1978 view of the surface that a craft called the Pioneer Venus Orbiter captured.24. What happened to Magellan in the end?A. It was floating in space forever.B. It flew into heavy clouds.C. It returned to the Earth.D. It fell onto Venus.25. How could Bondarenko judge the temperature of the Venus?A. By looking at it with a powerful telescope.B. By measuring the thickness of clouds over Venus.C. By calculating the microwave bouncing off Venuss surface.D. By orbiting Venus for 4 years in a spacecraft.26. The best title for the passage may be “_ ”.A. Warm lava on Venus B. More volcanic eruptions on VenusC. Venus is just like a big active volcano D. Lava flows are first found on VenusCHow to Get What I Want?Theres an expression: “What you see is what you get.” My grandfather used to say: “If you looked at a tree long enough, it will move.” We see what we want to see. Psychologists tell us that nothing controls our lives more than our self-image. We live like the person we see in the mirror. We are what we think we are. If you dont think youll be successful, you wont. You cant be it if you cant see it. Your life is limited to your vision. If you want to change your life, you must change your vision of your life.Arnold Schwarzenegger was not that famous in 1976 when he met with a newspaper reporter. The reporter asked Schwarzenegger: “Now that youve retired from bodybuilding, what do you plan to do next?” Schwarzenegger answered very calmly and confidently: “Im going to be the No. 1 movie star in Hollywood.” The reporter was shocked and amused at Schwarzeneggers plan. At that time, it was very hard to imagine how this muscle-bound bodybuilder, who was not a professional actor and who spoke poor English with a strong Austrian accent, could ever hope to be Hollywoods No. 1 movie star! So when the reporter asked Schwarzenegger how he planned to make his dream e true, Schwarzenegger said: “Ill do it the same way I became the No. 1 bodybuilder in the world. What I do was create a vision of who I want to be, and then I start living like that person in my mind as if it were already true.” Sounds almost childishly simple, doesnt it? But I worked! Schwarzenegger became the No.1 highest paid movie star in Hollywood. Remember: “If you can see it, you can be it.”Theres a successful businessman who often wears a shirt with these words on it: “Dont just pursue your dreams. Chase down and tackle! ” you only get one life to live, so why not live the best life possible? So you can be fully satisfied at what you see and get.27. What did Arnold Schwarzenegger do before he became a Hollywood star? A. He worked for a newspaper. B. He was a man working on bodybuilding. C. He worked in a small film pany. D. He was a businessman.28. Why was it hard for the reporter to believe that Schwarzenegger would bee a star one day? A. Because he was not famous. B. Because he was not professional and spoke poor English. C. Because he was good at nothing except bodybuilding. D. Because he only spoke English fluently. 29. What did Schwarzenegger plan to do to make his Hollywood star dream e true?A. He continued to build his body. B. He went to make more movies. C. He lived a life like a movie star. D. He tried his best to meet the movie directors.30.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Have a dream and make it e true. B. Stop your dream and find realistic things to do. C. You can just daydream alone. D. Theres nothing to do in the world but dream.第二小节：（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。Diets arent the way to go when it es to losing weight.
