Almost 20 percent of this area is well below sea level, and Badwater, a salt water pool, is about 280 feet below sea level and the lowest point in the United States. Long ago the Indians called this place “Tomesha” the land of fire. Death Valleys present name dates back to 1849, when a group of miners ing from Nevada became lost in its unpleasantness and hugeness and their adventure turned out to be a sad story. Today Death Valley has been called a National Monument (遗迹) and is crossed by several well-marked roads where good services can be found easily. Luckily the change created by human settlement has scarcely (几乎没有) ruined the special beauty of this place. Here nature created a lot of surprising sights, almost like the sights on the moon, ever-changing as the frequent wind moves the sand about, showing the most unusual colors. One of the most astonishing and changeable parts of Death Valley is the Devil s Golf Course, where it seems hard for one to tell reality from terrible dreams. Sand sculptures (沙雕) stand on a frightening ground as evening shadows move and lengthen. ( )25. According to the first paragraph, _ is the lowest place in the United States. A. Tomesha B.

Perhaps you cant answer that question quickly. In 1900 the worlds use of paper was about one kilogram for each person in a year. Now some countries use as much as 100 kilograms of paper for each person in a year. The amount of paper a country uses shows how far advanced the country is, some people say. It is difficult to say whether this is true: different people mean different things by the word “advanced”. But countries like the United States, England and Sweden certainly use more paper than other countries. Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very monly used before the year 1400. The Chinese first made paper about 2,000 years ago. China still has pieces of paper which were made as long ago as that. But Chinese paper was not made from the wood of trees. It was made from the hairlike parts of certain plants. Paper was not made in southern Europe until about the year 1100. Scandinavia which now makes a great deal of the worlds paper did not begin to make it until 1500. It was a German named Schaeffer who found out that trees could be made into the best paper. After that, the forest countries of Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the United States became the most important in paper making. Today in Finland, which makes the best paper in the world, the paper industry is the biggest in the land.( )28. The underlined word “advanced” in the first paragraph probably means _.A. big B. small C. developed D. beautiful( )29. Paper was first made in _.A. China B. Egypt C. the West D. southern Europe( )30. The man who first made paper from trees was a (an) _.A. ChineseB. Egyptian C. CanadianD. German( )31. Which country makes the best paper in the world today?A. Canada.B. Finland. C. Sweden. D. Norway.D“After four days in hospital, a 35-year-old woman died of bird flu in the western part of Indonesia on Tuesday, raising the countrys deaths to 57, and the source of infection (传染) was still unknown,” a senior health ministry official said. The H5N1 virus has killed at least 153 people worldwide since it began hitting Asian poultry (家禽) in late 2003, according to the World Health Organization, with over a third of the human deaths in Indonesia. Most of those killed have been infected by house-kept poultry, but WHO fears the virus could turn into a form that easily spreads among humans, causing a nationwide disease with the possibility to kill millions. Indonesia, the worlds fourth most populous (人口稠密的) country and home to millions of backyard chickens, is looked upon as a possible hot place for that to happen. The government came under fire for moving slowly to get rid of the virus when it first appeared in chickens and ducks, but has worked hard in recent months to make the public know about the dangers of bird flu. It has also increased vaccinations (接种疫苗) and killing of birds in infected areas. But no one knows whether the action will work. After all, bird flu has been there for more than two years and killed so many people.( )32.
