When the movie was over, the crowd made for the exits. A theater employee had just finished mopping the hallway and dutifully placed the “wet floor” sign in the slippery area. No one slipped due to the wet conditions, but someone did manage to knock over the sign. And by the time Ms. Brown got to the area, the sign was lying on the floor. And shortly thereafter, so was she. Her foot got caught in the sign, in a bad way, and she fell. Unfortunately Ms. Brown had undergone a back operation, and the fall caused more damage than it otherwise would have. So she and her husband sued (提起诉讼)AMC argued that the entire point of the “wet floor” sign above was to warn of danger, and therefore, courts should encourage the use by not allowing Browns case to proceed (继续进行). AMC referred to a case about a December, xx incident, where a “wet floor” sign, not in use, fell to the floor causing another tripandfall. In that case, Georgias Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the store, but didnt go so far as to say that “wet floor” signs couldnt give rise to legal liability (责任) in tripandfall accidents. In the Brown case, the Supreme Court therefore rejected AMCs argument that the former case applied.But the Browns argued something surprising that the “wet floor” sign was, itself, dangerous, because “using this type of sign in areas passed by lots of customers creates an unreasonable risk of foreseeable harm to the public in the form of tripping hazards (危险)” Thats right the safety sign, used in the way it was designed, was itself dangerous. The court thankfully didnt accept that argument, at least not entirely. But it did conclude that Browns case could continue to a jury (陪审团) “a merchants selection and use of equipment designed to warn customers of one danger that has the potential to expose them to a different one” 21According to the text, Ms. Brown _.Aslipped on the wet floorBtripped over a warning signCknocked over warning signDwas knocked down by the crowd22AMC mentioned the xx case in order to _.Aaccept its legal liability for Ms. Browns lossBprove Ms. Brown had some physical problemsCstress that it had no legal liability for the accidentDprove other customers were responsible for the accident23What can we learn about the Browns case from the last paragraph?AIt would be judged by jury.BIt would not be allowed to proceed.CThe court would rule in favor of AMC.DThe court accepted all the arguments of the Browns. There once was a dad and his son. In one holiday they went hunting one day at their deer shack in Spooner, WI. The son and the dad were on their way to their tree stands when the son saw a bobcat (美洲野猫). They saw it standing up on its hind legs looking for something to eat. The dad told his son to try to walk slowly around the bobcat but they stepped on a branch when they saw the bobcat. When they stepped on the branch the bobcat saw them and started to charge(猛冲) after them. The bobcat took down the dad, so the son ran as fast as he could to get to his tree stand. The son grabbed his deer rifle, put a bullet in it, looked at the bobcat, and shot it in the heart. The son got out of his tree stand to go check on his dad. When he got over to his dad he removed the dead bobcat. Then he called the EMTs (急诊医士) because he thought his dad was really hurt from when the bobcat stomped on him and bit him. The EMTs told the son they were 10 minutes out. Before the EMTs got there the son took his dad into the hunting shack to clean out his cuts. After the EMTs arrived at the deer shack they looked at the sons dad. They said he will be in the hospital for 10 days. He had ten broken ribs and 5 broken neck bones, so after the son heard this he started crying. The EMTs said, We can take you to your grandmas house. The ten days were up now so the son went back to the hospital and the doctors explained that his dad would be paralyzed(瘫痪) from the waste down. Then the son asked the doctors, Can we could still go hunting and fishing together. They replied no, but you and your grandma can do those things together. The dad had to go into physical therapy treatment for 2 years. Then the dad got back home and the son and he did things together like they used to do. 24. Why did the bobcat find the son and his father?A. Because it had an excellent smell.B. Because they made a noise at that moment.C. Because they missed the first shot.D. Because it had a very good eyesight. 25. Why did the son phone the EMTs?A. Because the EMTs could help them hunting.B. Because the EMTs could deal with the dead bobcat.C. Because the EMTs could send him home.D. Because the EMTs could cure his injured father. 26. It can be inferred that the father was .A. badly woundedB. slightly woundedC. not wounded at allD. already dead 27. What can you infer from the last paragraph?A. The dad pletely got well after 10 days.B. The son and the father did no hunting any more.C. The son and the father continued hunting as before.D. The doctor agreed to the sons hunting request. CTigers in Nepal seem to be taking night shifts in order to avoid their human neighbors, a study has shown. The big cats generally move around at all times of the day and night, to monitor territory, mate and hunt. But the study of tigers in Chitwan National Parkwhere humans and tigers walk the same pathsshowed a night shift in activity. The results challenge the traditional wisdom. Its traditionally thought that tigers need lots of people-free space. This can lead to people removing to make way for tigers. Tigers need resources, people need the same resources. If we operate under the traditional wisdom that tigers only can survive with space devoted only for them, there would always be conflict. If your priority is people, tigers lose out. If your priority is tigers, people lose out. Chitwan is home to about 121 tigers. People live on the parks borders, but rely on the forests for wood and grasses, venturing in on roads and narrow footpaths. Mr. Carter spent two seasons setting motion-detecting camera traps for tigers, their prey(猎物) and people who walk the roads and trails of Chitwan, both in and around the park. His analysis of the thousands of images show that people and tigers are walking the same paths, yet at different times of the day. The cameras documented a clear shift towards night activity in the tigers. People generally avoid the forests at night, so dusk would seem to provide a signal for tigers to e out and play. Mr. Carter said that conditions for tigers in Chitwan were good, with high prey numbers, low levels of poaching(偷猎), and forests that are spreading outside the boundaries of the park. But, he explained: People of different kinds, including tourists and local residents, frequent the forests of Chitwan. Tigers need to use the same space as people if they are to have an existent long-term future. What were learning in Chitwan is that tigers seem to be adapting to make it work. Weve found something very interesting is happening in Nepal that holds promise for both humans and nature to thrive. 28. Why do tigers in Nepal move out at night?A. They like the darkness.B. They want to avoid their natural enemy.C. They want to avoid humans.D. They can share the same path with humans. 29. Whats the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Traditional idea on the peaceful life between people and tigers.B. Traditional idea on the conflict between people and tigers.C. People should protect tigers at the cost of their own benefit.D. People should protect themselves without caring for tigers. 30. How did Mr. Carter learn tigers activities?A. By personally watching their activities on the spot.B. By spending two seasons living with the tigers.C. By analyzing the images of motion-detecting camera.D. By asking the information from the park staff.31. What will do harm to tigers life according to Carter?A. Enough wild animals.B. Almost no poaching.C. The thick forests.D. Humans activities in the forest. D New archaeological discoveries suggest that trade between Europe and Asia along the Silk Road probably began many centuries earlier than once thought. The findings, coupled with a range of scientific and historical research, could add a fascinating new page to the epic of the Silk Road. The latest and most surprising discovery is pieces of silk found in the hair of an Egyptian mummy from about 1,000 BC, long before regular traffic on the Silk Road and at least one thousand years before silk was previously thought to be used in Egypt. The official origin of East-West merce along the road is usually placed in the late 2nd century BC when an agent of the Chinese Emperor Wudi returned from a dangerous secret mission(使命) across the western desert into the remote Central Asia. The agent, Zhang Qian, travelled as far as Afghanistan and brought back knowledge of even more distant lands such as Persia, Syria and a place known as Lijien, perhaps Rome. Historians have called this one of the most important journeys in ancient times. His journey opened the way for what have been thought to be the first indirect contacts between the ancient worlds two superpowers, China and Rome. Chinese silk, first traded to central Asian tribes for war horses and to the Parthians of old Persia in exchange for acrobats and ostrich eggs, was soon finding its way through a network of merchants to the luxury markets of Rome. But the new discoveries show that Chinese silk was apparently present in the West long before the Han emperor started organized trade over the Silk Road. The research could change thinking about the early history of world trade and wonder the mystery of just when and how Europe and the Mediterranean lands first became aware of the glorious culture. 32. The underlined word coupled in the first paragraph could best be replaced by .A. producedB. continuedC. doubledD. bined 33. The silk thread found in the hair of an Egyptian mummy suggests that .A. Egyptians had probably travelled to China to buy silkB. trade along the Silk Road began earlier than once thoughtC. historical research often achieves fascinating resultsD. new light can now be thrown on ancient trading practices34. Until recently most historians officially believed that trade along the Silk Road .A. originated in the 2nd century BCB. extended human migration into eastern AsiaC. began a million years agoD. primarily benefited the Egyptians35. Historians have always considered Zhang Qians journey important because they believe .A. he brought back knowledge of Rome to the emperorB. he discovered the Silk RoadC. he helped establish East-West tradeD. he travelled as far as Afghanistan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。Giant Panda Is No Longer Endangered A leading international group has taken the giant panda off its endangered list thanks to decades of conservation efforts, but Chinas government is unwilling to accept the change, saying it did not view the status of the countrys beloved symbol as any less serious. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) said in a report that the panda is now classified as a “vulnerable” instead of “endangered” species, reflecting its growing numbers in the wild in southern China. _36_That is the result of work by Chinese agencies to carry out hunting bans and expand forest reserves. In a statement, Chinas State Forestry Administration said that it doubted the classification change because pandas natural habitats have been mainly separated by human causes. The animals live in small, isolated groups of as few as 10 pandas that struggle to reproduce and face the risk of disappearing altogether. If we relax our conservation work, the populations and habitats of giant pandas would still suffer a great loss. _37_ Therefore, were not being alarmist (危言耸听的) by continuing to emphasize the panda species endangered status. _38_John Howard, a senior official at World Society for the Protection of Animals, expressed his satisfaction over the effective measures taken by the Chinese government. The Chinese government and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) first established the Wolong NationalNature Reserve in Sichuan province in 1980. Wild panda numbers have since slowly recovered as China punishes the skin trade. _39_ Over the last few decades, international groups and the Chinese government have worked tosave wild pandas and breed them in face of their extinction. It is not surprising that the WWF,whose logo has been a panda since 1961, celebrated the pandas re-classification. _40_A. As a result, our achievements would be quickly lost. B. The wild panda population jumped to 1,864 in xx from 1,596 in xx. C. Still, other animal protection organizations praised the recovery of the pandas. D. Panda has long been a symbol of China and the global conservation movement. E. And China gradually expanded its protected forest areas to cover 1.4 million hectares now.F. Some pandas have been sent to zoos around the world as a gesture of Chinese good will.G. It says that long-term efforts do pay off when political will and engagement e together.第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面的短文,掌握其大意,从各题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。 What are the chances of a 100-year-old chocolate candy falling in your treat bag this Halloween?
