Three-hour use per day is the minimum58.A student can rent a locker in the library if he.A. can afford the rental feeB. has earned the required creditsC. has nowhere to put his booksD. attends certain courses B In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens to humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They dont get to see the soft side of others often; we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending were brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness thats in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, honking (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty four years of drivingI put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can. And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldnt get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we dont feel that way. But those are few and far between (稀少的).More often, it would be better if we dont pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or that we are brave when we are scared.59.The author has discovered that people will feel happy when.A. they receive others help B. they show their weaknessC. they offer their help D. they feel others kindness60.The author feels sad sometimes because.A. some people pretend to be kindB. some people fail to see the kindness in othersC. he relies much on othersD. he has a soft heart61.What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A.

They speed up to pass.62.In this passage, the author advises us to.A. accept help from othersB. show our braveryC. handle problems by ourselvesD. admit our weakness CRecordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says.Beehives(蜂窝)一either recorded or realmay even prevent elephants from damaging farmers crops. In xx, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmers to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away. Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next, Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family. From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of awaterfall(瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place. Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasnt tested enough groups yet to know, but herinitialresults were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.63.We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of _.A. loud noises B. angry beesC. some crops D. video cameras 64.As mentioned in the passage, Lucy _.A. works by herself in AfricaB. has stopped elephants eating cropsC. has got farmers to set up beehives on their farmsD. needs to test more elephant groups 65.Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive?A. To make a video of elephants.B. To find out more about the behavior of bees.C. To record the sound of beesD. To see if elephants would run away66.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Young elephants ignore African honeybees.B. Elephants do not go near trees with bees living in them. C. Farmers do not allow Lucy to conduct tests in their fields.D. Waterfalls can make elephants stay in one place. DWhen I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from china. When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now. Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.” As long as I can remember she didnt even drink Indian tea. I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses. At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian. It was a strange country. How things change! And how soon! Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China. The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”. Butits a two-way street.

It has attracted an investment of US$15 billionC.It caught up with the US IT industry in xx.D. It is seeking further development in China 70.In the text the author expresses _.A. his concern for his mothers healthB. his surprise at Chinas recent developmentC.his wonder at the growth of Indias IT industryD. his support for drinking Chinese green tea 第II卷 非 选 择 题 （共35分）第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格中只填一个单词。Teenagers today live in a very petitive world where people are always running after something or another.
