They walk in the sea in the middle of the dark Antarctic water. They choose their wives in the dark.They can only hear themnot see them.Then the female penguins lay their eggs and go away for about two months.The males take care of the eggs.If the eggs get cold，there will be no chicks.There is no food.The snow falls heavily and the wind blows stronglysometimes at 150 kilometers an hour.The penguins do not move.When the females return from the sea，they will not remember their husbands.It does not matter.Only one thing mattersthe eggs.Male penguins never fightunless a penguin leaves a chick for a minute.They then fight because they all want it.They are strange and wonderful birds.26It seems interesting and unusual that the male penguins choose their wives _.Awhen the female penguins return from the seaBjust by hearing in the darknessCeach time they see the lovely femalesDafter they have had their own grounds27Male penguins fight when _.Athey choose their wivesBthey see a chick left aloneCthey want to get something to eatDthey walk through their neighbors ground28From the passage we know that _.Apenguins live a hard lifeBpenguins live in pairsCpenguins will fight if one walks through others ground without permissionDeach penguin has a little piece of ground of its own29The penguins choose their wives in the dark. We can infer that _.Apenguins like nights very muchBthere is no daytime in that place at allCthe weather is cloudy and rainy all the year aroundDthe sun cant shine there for nearly half a year every year30Which of the following is NOT true?AFemale penguins take care of the eggs.BFemale penguins often have their new husbands.CMale penguins use their ears to choose wives.DMale penguins dont move when they take care of eggs，even though the wind often blows strongly.（B）Although April did not bring us the rains we all hoped for, and although the Central Valley doesnt generally experience the sound and lightning that can go with those rains, its still important for parents to be able to answer the youthful questions about thunder and lightning.The reason these two wonders of nature are so difficult for many adults to explain to children is that they are not very well understood by adults themselves. For example, did you know that the lightning we see flashing down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earth? Our eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when its actually the other way around. But then, if we believed only what we think and we see, wed still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night.Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud, and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two clouds or between earth and a cloud. But, with about 2,000 thunderstorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night, theres enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on earth every second.Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them. When children understand that the light of the lightning flashing reaches their eyes almost at the same moment, but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile, they can begin to time the interval (间隔) between the flash and the crash to learn how lose they were to the actual spark (闪光).31. According to the author, in the area of the Central Valley_. A. rains usually e without thunder and lightning. B. it is usually dry in April C. children pay no attention to the two natural wonders. D. parents are not interested in thunder and lightning.32. We believe that lightning is a downward motion because_. A. we were taught so by our parents from our childhood.

Only a small number of lightning flashes occur on earth. B. Lightning flashes usually jump from one cloud to another. C. Lightning travels 5 times faster than thunder. D. There are far more lightning strikes occurring on earth than we can imagine.34. The underlined word “activity” is most closely related to the word (s) _. A. cloudB. lightning strikes C. lightning flashesD. thunderstorms35. It can be concluded from the passage that _. A. we should not believe what we see or hear. B. things moving downward are more noticeable. C. people sometimes may have wrong ideas about ordinary phenomena. D. adults are not as good as children in observing certain natural phenomena.（C）LONDON (Reuters)New faces given to a Chinese man after a bear tore off part of his face and a FrenchCaribbean man disfigured by a rare tumor show that such transplants can work and are not medical oddities (怪异)，researchers said.The findings give hope to some people with severe facial disfigurement and suggest the transplants could prove longlasting without major problems.Despite the tissue rejection in the first year after their transplants，neither men had psychological problems accepting their new faces and have been able to rejoin society，they reported.Only three people have received face transplants.The worlds first was carried out on French woman Isabelle Dinoire in November xx after she was disfigured in an attack by her dog.In xx，her doctors reported that she had recovered slowly and steadily，overing two periods of rejection.In xx，Chinese doctors performed a face transplant on a 30yearold hit by a bear.While there were some plications with tissue rejection following the operation，two years later the man was doing well，his doctors said.“This case suggests that facial transplantation might be an option for restoring a severely disfigured face，and could enable patients to bring themselves back into society，” Shuzhong Guo and colleagues at Xijing Hospital in China wrote.A French team described their work on a 29yearold man who suffered from Von Recklinghausen disease，an illness that changes the shape of his face.“The man，who was not named，was given a new nose，mouth and chin in a xx operation.He began to work 13 months after the transplant has more function in his face and has not rejected the new tissue，” his doctors said.“Our case confirms that face transplantation is practical and effective for the correction of specific disfigurement，” Dr.Laurent Lantieri and colleagues at the HenriMondor hospital outside Paris wrote.36Whats the main idea of this passage?AFace transplants can work.BFace transplants help regain confidence.CThree people have received face transplants.DDisfigured people need face transplants.37What happened to the Chinese patient mentioned in the passage?AHe got a strange illness when he was young.BHe received several operations in hospital.CHe was the first person to receive a face transplant.DHe was once attacked by an animal.38From the passage we can learn that _.Adoctors have different opinions on facial disfigurementBpatients could regain selfconfidence after face transplantsCthe new face of every patient has more functions than expectedDit is easy for disabled people to be accepted by society39The underlined word “restoring” in Paragraph 4 means “_”Aremoving BrecoveringCrepairing Drejecting40What problem resulted from the facial operations?AThe patients wouldnt accept the facial change.BIt was hard for the patients to get along with others.CIt took some time for the patients to recover from the operation.DThe patients usually suffered from tissue rejection.（D） When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldnt understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laughs turned into crying. So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing are controlled by the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so does crying. Whatever helps us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying. Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us bee kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and fort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we dont even know were very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them. Just as crying can be healthy, not crying-holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering-can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can 1ead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illness. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, dont fight it. Its a natural, healthy and emotional response.41. Why didnt the author cry when her grandmother died? A. Because her father did not want her to feel too sad. B. Because she did not love her grandmother. C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time. D. The author doesnt give the explanation.42. It can be inferred from the text that _. A. there are two ways to keep healthy B. emotional health has a close relationship to physical health C. crying and laughing play the same roles D. crying does more good to health than laughing43. According to the author, which of the following statements is true? A. Crying is the best way to get help from others. B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems. C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry. D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure44. What might be the most suitable title for the text? A. Why We Cry B. How to Keep Healthy C. Power of Tears D. New Scientific Discovery45. What is the authors attitude to crying? A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Touched. D. Upset.（二）信息匹配请阅读下面出现在英国报刊的有关课程招生的广告信息:A.
