An explorer named Samuel De Champlain is regarded as the first person to see a monster in it. This is reported to have happened in 1609, but this may not have been the first sighting of the monster known as Champ.A reporter in the 1960s found that the sighting may not have been in the lake at all. It is more likely that the first sighting was off the coast of the St. Lawrence estuary (河口). In all likelihood, the first sighting of the lake monster in the lake itself took place at Port Henry, New York, in 1819 by settlers in the territory. The sightings continued, and in 1883 the sheriff (州长) of Clinton County, Nathan Mooney, described witnessing “ an enormous snake that was 25 to 30 feet in length”. Sandra Mansi and her husband were vacationing in Vermont. When the lake monster appeared, they took a picture of Champ. The picture was analyzed and it was concluded that the photo was real. It has been speculated (推测) that the monster may be a creature known as a plesiosaur (颈项龙), which lived many centuries ago. Lake Champlain has depths of up to 400 feet, and is an outlet to the Atlantic Ocean. There is plenty of food there, which supports the existence of such a creature. Lake Champlain also has a water temperature that is ideal for such a creature. In recent years a smaller creature has been seen with the large one. Could there be a family of these creatures in the lake reproducing their yet unknown species now? Only time will give us the answers that we seek.66. Where did the first sighting of Champ in the lake most probably happen?A. Off the coast of the St. Lawrence estuary.B. At Port Henry.C. In the Clinton County.D. In Vermont.67. Which of the following have the scientists concluded?A. That the monster belongs to a known species.B. That the picture taken by Sandra Mansi is real.C. That the monster is the offspring of the plesiosaur.D. When and where the lake monsters were first seen.68. What can we learn from the passage?A. The snake-like monster may have swum there from the Atlantic Ocean. B. Champ has had so many babies that they can be seen everywhere in the lake.C. The first recorded story about the Lake Champlain monster was in 1609.D. Enough food and a suitable water temperature is evidence that Champ can live there.BEnglish is fast being the language of science around the world, but what is its future among everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage of native English speakers is declining(降低) while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important.However, British language scholar David Graddol says English will probably drop in dominance(主导) by the middle of this century to rank, after Chinese, about equally with Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu. “The number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise, but it isnt rising nearly as fast as the numbers of many other languages around the world, simply because the main population group has been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken,” he says.In a recent article in the journal Science, Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali, Tamil and Malay, spoken in south and southeast Asia.David Crystal, the author of The Cambridge Encyclopedia(百科全书) of the English Language, says about 1.5 billion of the worlds six billion people speak it as a second tongue pared to the 400 million native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the future of its dominance. “All the evidence suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill and is getting faster, but nobody quite knows whats going to happen because no language has been in this position before.” He said.69. In David Graddols opinion, English will _. A. remain widespread and important B. be more important than any other language C. lose its dominant position D. die away in the near future.70. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that _. A. snowballs will roll down faster than language balls B. the English language snowball is rolling down faster than any time in the past C. the English language will soon drop in dominance D. more and more language user will choose English71. According to David Graddol, which of the following will possibly be one of the languages that will be most widely spoken? A. Malay. B. Arabic. C. Urdu. D. German.72. What should be the best title for the passage? A. English Remaining the Dominant Position B. The Future of English? Who Knows? C. Opinions from Different Experts D. The English Language Snowball Rolling DownC BUKHANNON, West Virginia Two rescue teams slowly moved along a two-mile path in Monday night to the site of a coal mine explosion that trapped 13 miners, who had not been heard from since the early morning accident. Meanwhile, at a nearby church, more than 250 family members and friends gathered, waiting for updates(最新报道) on the rescuers progress. The miners were trapped at about 6:30 a.m. and many families werent informed of the accident until about 10 a.m.more than three hours after it happened. “Its very upsetting, but youve got to be patient, I guess,” said John Helms, whose brother, Terry, was trapped in the mine. The trapped miners were about 260 feet underground and about 10000 feet from the Sago Mines entrance, said Roger Nicholson, general counsel from International Coal Group. At a late night news conference, Nicholson said one team had advanced about 4800 feet in the four hours since entering the mine just before 6 p.m. Another team entered the mine about 30 minutes later. He said the crew was very experienced, with some members having worked underground for 30 to 35 years. The miners were equipped with about one hour of breathable oxygen each. The pany has not released the names of the miner. The teams test the air about every 500 feet, and have to disconnect (remove) the power to the phones they use to municate with the surface before doing that. “We dont want to be energizing anything if its in an atmosphere with burnable gases,” Kips said. The cause of the explosion was not immediately known. High level of carbon monoxide were detected shortly after the explosion, which delayed rescue efforts, but those levels have since subsided(减退), authorities said.73. According to the passage, we can infer that _. A. all the miners who were trapped underground were still alive B. munication with the trapped miners was cut off C. the two rescue teams entered the mine at the same time D. the rescue started as soon as the accident happened74. If the first team advanced at an average speed, they could dig about _ per hour. A. 1000 feet B. 2400 feet C. 1200 feet D. 4800 feet75. Where can the passage be seen? A. In a magazine. B. In a newspaper. C. In a science book. D. In an advertisement. 第二节：任务型阅读。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，请把答案写在答题卡上。 Do you sweat, chew your pencil, and feel butterflies in your stomach as your teacher hands out a test?
