They were there all the time: early morning, noon, and evening. There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces. “e on!” My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening. “Youll feel great.” Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army. Im not alone in my opinion. First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. Your legs and feet a real pounding（沉重的脚步） ruining down a road for two or three miles. I developed foot, leg, and back problems. Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to worry about. Jogging doesnt kill hundreds of people, but if you have any physical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me. Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging. Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isnt my idea of fun. Jogging is also a lonely pastime. Some joggers say, “I love being out there with just my thoughts” Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were on how much my legs hurt. And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasnt just the first weekit was practically every day for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isnt fun. What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog? I dont jog any more, and I dont think I ever will. Im walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. Im getting exercise, and Im enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and Ive found a lot of better ways to stay in shape. 56 From the first paragraph, we learn that in the writers neighborhood _ A jogging became very popular B people jogged only during the daytime C Alex organized an army of joggers D jogging provided a chance to get together 57 The underlined word “them”（Paragraph 3） most probably refers to _ A heart attacks B back problems C hundreds of peopleD physical weaknesses 58 From the writers experience, we can conclude that_ Ajogging can help people keep fitB many physical problems result from joggingC not everyone enjoys joggingD jogging makes people feel greater BIn the mid-1940s, the young ambitious Ruth and Elliot Handler, owned a pany that made wooden picture frames.

Bees live almost everywhere in the world except in the Arctic areas.Many kinds of agriculture depend on these small, social insects. Without bees, fruit and nut growers as well as many other farmers would not have a crop.There are more than 20,000 kinds of bees. But only honey bees make enough honey for people to use. Honeybees are highly-organized social insects. They work together in a group, called a colony（群体）. Each colony lives in a hive（蜂房）. It contains one queen bee - she lays all the eggs from which the members of the colony e. Each colony has only a few hundred males, called drones. The majority of all bees in a colony are workers, which are all females.Bees even have a special stomach, called a honey stomach, which is used to store sweet fluid that the bees gather from flowers. Bees also have long hairs on their body and legs. These hairs capture pollen（花粉） as bees go from flower to flower. Some of the pollen is taken back to the hive. Some, however, is passed to the next flower. This is how many plants are fertilized. Pollen is the reproductive material of plants. Many important agricultural crops depend on bees for fertilization. Inside their hives, bees store sweet liquid from flowers and pollen as well. They may even gather sweet liquid from some other kinds of insects. These kinds of sweet liquid are also stored in the hive.Bees make honey through a process. They add liquid from their own mouths to sweet liquid into simple sugar. As the honey is stored, it dries. It bees thicker and darker.Although bees are often thought of as honey makers, they provide a surprising number of products. Also, their greatest economic value is in fertilizing crops-not in making honey.67The passage is mainly about .Abees and their colonyBthe way for bees to pass pollenCbees and agricultureDthe process for bees to make honey68Honeybees are social insects because .Athey work in groupsBthere is queen bee in every colonyCthey live in a hiveDeach of them does the same job69The most valuable thing honeybees do for people is in .Amaking honeyBfertilizing cropsCmaking flowers grow betterDproducing pollen70The word “fertilize” in the sentence “This is how many plants are fertilized.” probably means “ ”.Ato make plants strong and productiveBto make soil rich for plantsCto start the development of young flowersDto introduce pollen into plants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 do you, the trees, and a bird have in mon? 71 All living things must have water to survive, whether they get it from a water fountain, a rain cloud, or a little bottle attached to the side of a bird cage72 Water makes up more than half of your body weight and a person cant survive for more than a few days without itWhy?
