In 1971, readers around the world were astonished by some photographs which appeared in newspapers. Hidden deep in the rainforests of an island in the Philippines, was an ethnic (種族的)  36 called the Tasaday. Not until that moment did anyone have any   37   of these people. They didn’t have an agricultural economy; they hunted animals and   38  fruit from the plants in the rainforest. They carried tools made of stone, lived in   39  and wore clothes made of leaves. Unknown until 1971, they   40  became world famous. After that, there were TV   41 and books about them; people said their simple lives showed that human beings could be good and kind if they were not  42 by modern life. Then after 1974 the region was closed by the government and the world   43  about them.
In 1986, a Swiss journalist, Oswald Iten, decided to visit the Tasaday. The journey   44  thick rainforests and across rivers was hard and dangerous. Mr. Iten was   45  killed by the soldiers, villagers and businessmen who wanted to take the wood from the rainforest. Finally, Mr. Iten   46  and found the caves of the Tasaday   47 . The people were living in nearby huts and they were all   48  jeans and T-shirts, not leaves. He thought that perhaps they were not an ethnic minority   49  .
When he   50  to Switzerland, Mr. Iten wrote about the Tasaday people in the newspapers. He said he thought that they were just ordinary farmers, poor, but not   51  from anyone else. He believed that in 1971, the government told “the Tasaday” to   52  they were native people from thousands of years ago, so that tourists---and money---would start   53  into the region.
One group of experts said that they really were people who had no   54  with modern life before 1971; another group said they were just   55  the part. So who are these people, really? Perhaps we’ll never really be sure.

When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”. But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness？?
Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever  36 the wolves' world? If you had, you would  37 the wolves.?
In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about  38 than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to 39 full use of the shape of land to  40 sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be   41  experts good at fighting.?
The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand  42 . Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A  43 wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves  44 nothing. All the wolves obey the rules.  45  they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork  46 makes wolves powerful.?
The wolves also have great self-respect and won't  47 to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book “The Wolf Totem”,  48 stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his 49 , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with  50 wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was  51  and he never gave in, fighting  52  his death. The little wolf died as a glorious fighter.?
I was shocked by this kind of  53 : wolves are one of the most respected creatures on earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a  54 way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and  55  in this not simple and dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!

Feeling blue about world ? “Cheer up.” Says science writer Matt Ridley.”The world has never been a better place to live in, and it will keep on getting better both for humans and got nature.”
Ridley calls himself a tat ional optimist—tactical .because he’s carefully weighed the evidence optimistic .because that   offence shows human progress to be both unavoidable and good .And this is what he’s set out to prone from unique point of view in his most recent book. The Rant anal Opting  .He views mankind as grand enterprise that .on the whole .has done little but progress for 100.000 years. He backed his finding with hard gathered though years of research.
Here’s how he explains his views.
Shopping fuels invention
It is reported that there are more than ten billion different producers for sale in London alone. Even allowing for the many people who still live in poverty .our own generation has access to more nutritious food .more convenient transport .bigger houses, better ears .and of course, more pounds and dollars than any who lived before us .This will continue as long as we there things to make other things, This more we specialize and exchange, the better off we’ll be.
2) Brilliant advances
One reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer-lived and freer than ener before is that the four most basie human needs -food, clothing, fuel and shelter- have grown a lot cheaper. Take one example. In 1800 a candle providing one hour’s light cost six hours’ work. In the 1880s the same light from an oil lamp took 15 minutes’ work to pay for. In 1950 it was eight seconds. Today it’s half second.
3) Let’s not kill ourselves for climate change
Mitigating(減輕) climate change could prove just as damaging to human welface as climate change itself. A child that dies from indoor smoke in a village, where the use of fassil-fuel(化石燃料) electrieity is forhidden by well meaming members of green polucal movements trying to save the world, is just as great a tragedy as a child that mes in a flood caused by climate change. If chmaic change proves to be xxxx, but cutting carbon canses realparn, we may well find that we have stopped a nose bleed by putting a tournquet(止血帶) around our necks.
小題1:What is the theme of Ridley’s most recent book?
A．Weakness of human nature.
B．Concern about climate change.
C．Importance of practical thinking.
D．Optimism about human progress.
小題2:How does Ridley look at shopping?
A．It encourages the creation of things.
B．It results in shortage of goods.
C．It demands more fossil fuels.
D．It causes a poverry problem.
小題3:The candle and lamp example is used to show that     .
A．oil lamps give off more light than candles
B．shortening working time brings about a happier life.
C．a(chǎn)dvanced technology helps to produce better candles.
D．increased production rate leads to lower cost of goods.
小題4:What does the last sentence of the passage imply?
A．Cutting carbon is necessary in spite of the huge cost.
B．Overreaction to cliamate change may be dangerous.
C．People’s health is closely related to climate change.
D．Careless medical treatment may cause great pain.

Popular breakfast foods in the United States, as in many other countries around the world, include coffee, milk , juice, eggs, and bread. Some other breakfast items served in the United States are thought by many to be traditionally American. However, they actually come from other cultures.
A very popular breakfast food in America is the pancake--- a thin , flat cake made out of flour and often served with maple syrup. The idea of the pancake is very old. In fact, pancakes were made long ago in ancient China.
Bagels, a round thick bread with a hole in the middle , are also popular for breakfast in America. Polish people in the late 1600s came up with the idea for the first bagels and this new kind of bread soon took off across Eastern Europe.
In the late 1800s, thousands of Jews from Eastern Europe travelled to the United States and brought the recipe for bagels with them. Today, New York bagels are said to be the best in the world. Many people have them with cream for breakfast on the go.
Doughnuts (usually spelled “donut” in the United States) came from France. They were served to American soldiers in France in the World War Ⅰ. After the war, American soldiers asked cooks in the United States to make doughnuts for them. Now , served with coffee, they are a very popular breakfast food across the United States.
小題1:This reading is mainly about ________

Of the 7,000 languages spoken in the world today, linguists (語(yǔ)言學(xué)家) say, nearly half are likely to disappear this century. In fact, one falls out of use about every two weeks.
Some languages die out in an instant, at the death of the only surviving speaker. Others are lost gradually in bilingual (雙語(yǔ)的) cultures, as local tongues are edged out by the dominant (占主導(dǎo)地位的) language at school, in the marketplace and on television.
New research, supported by the National Geographic Society and the Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages, has found the five regions where languages are disappearing most rapidly. They are northern Australia, central South America, North America's upper Pacific coastal zone, eastern Siberia, and Oklahoma and the southwestern United States.
K. David Harrison, an associate professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College, US, said that more than half the languages had no written form and were vulnerable to loss and being forgotten." Their loss leaves no dictionary, no text, or no record of the accumulated knowledge and history of a disappeared culture.
Harrison and other researchers started their rescue project last year. They have been trying to identify and record endangered languages. They interviewed and made recordings of the few remaining speakers of a language and collected basic word lists. The individual projects, some lasting three to four years, involve hundreds of hours of recording speech, developing grammar and preparing children's readers in the obscure (逐漸沒(méi)落的) language. The research has concentrated on preserving entire language families.
"These are probably languages that cannot be brought back, but at least we made records of them," said Gregory Anderson, director of the Living Tongues Institute, in Oregon, US.
小題1:What does the passage mainly tell us?          
A．Many languages are quickly disappearing.
B．Some languages are disappearing because they are hard to remember.
C．Chinese is one of the languages that are disappearing.
D．Thanks to some researchers, many endangered languages have been rescued.
小題2:What does the word vulnerable in the fourth paragraph mean?  
A．easy to remember.B．easy to forget.
C．likely to be damaged.D．likely to be protected.
小題3:Which of the following is true according to the fifth paragraph?  
A．Harrison and other researchers are trying to find out why some languages died out.
B．Harrison and other researchers tried to start a rescue project.
C．Harrison and other researchers have concentrated on preserving all the languages.
D．Harrison and other researchers have done some rescue work on the obscure languages.
小題4:One of the things that Harrison and other researchers did was         .   
A．to have more people speak the disappearing language
B．to make records of the disappearing language
C．to limit dominant languages
D．to publish a dictionary of the disappearing language
小題5:What do you think is the suggested reason for some languages disappearing?     
A．Local tongues are gradually edged out by the dominant language at school, in the marketplace and on television.
B．The number of people who speak the languages are small.
C．There are no dictionaries for the languages.
D．No one make records of the languages, so they gradually disappear.

“Dinning out” and “eating out” are phrases people use in Britain when they eat in a restaurant or pub（小酒館）. Eating out is more popular in Britain today than it has ever been. In 2006, for the first time ever, British people spent more eating out than cooking for themselves and eating at home. It seems that many British people are becoming increasingly interested in how good their food tastes, and also how healthy it is.
However, eating out can also be expensive. As British people do not eat out every night of the week, eating in a restaurant is often seen as a special occasion. When going on a first date and wanting to impress him/ her , or if celebrating an anniversary or a birthday, many people like to go to a restaurant to eat, and people often also eat in a restaurant before going to the cinema or the theater.
As in all cultures, there are many rules of etiquette(禮儀) surrounding food and eating. The knife and fork should be used in the correct way! It is also impolite to have your elbows(肘部) on the dinning table when you are eating.
Almost all British cities have a vast range of food as well as traditional British food, and all from the very cheap to the very expensive---French, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Greek, Thai, Japan and many, many more. In fact, when asked which was their favorite food, more British people said an Indian curry(咖喱菜肴) than any other dish !
As well as dining in a restaurant, when people are too tired to cook after work they often get a “take-away”. This means that they order from a take-out restaurant by telephone, and then go to collect it and take it home to eat. Many take-out restaurants also deliver it your house. While you can normally find a take-out restaurant for almost any food, the most popular are Italian, Indian and Chinese and then all of you have to do is to open the door, pay and eat !
小題1:On which of the following occasions are British people likely to eat in a restaurant ?
A．After watching a play.B．Before watching a movie.
C．When they’re too tired to work.D．When they want to have natural food.
小題2:From the passage we can know that_______.
A．eating out is not expensive in Britain
B．eating at pubs doesn’t have so many rules in Britain
C．British people are not aware of nutrition while eating out
D．the British spent more eating at home more than eating out
小題3:We can learn from the last two paragraphs that________.
A．French dishes are very expensive
B．take-out restaurants only deliver pizza
C．British people are fond of foreign food
D．people can eat take-out food first and pay later
小題4:What is the passage mainly about ?
A．Restaurant culture in Britain.B．Table manners.
C．Traditional British food.D．Eating and health.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Thanks to the huge success of Harry Potter, many teenagers dream about living in an ancient castle. These dreams may include beautiful silk dresses, delicious food, servants and of course, magic. However, real life in an English castle was not easy. With thick stonewalls and high towers, castles were built for defence(防御). So they were not good places to live in. In medieval times, castles must have been noisy and smelly places. Horses, cattle, chickens and sheep walked free, blacksmiths did ironwork, soldiers practised sword (劍) fights, and children of all ages played around them. Castles did not have central heating; the only heat came from the fireplace. Even in summer the castle was cool. People living in the castles had to use blankets to keep warm while at work.
Life during the Middle Ages began at sunrise. Servants lit the fire, swept the floor and cooked the morning meal. The mid-morning meal was the main meal of the day and often included three or four courses (一道菜). After dinner, everyone continued his or her work. The owner of the castle, the lord, sometimes took his guests hunting or shooting. His wife, the lady, spent much of the day watching the maids (女仆) work, as well as people working in the kitchen. She also kept an eye on the weavers and embroiderers who made clothes for the family. Supper was simple and eaten late, just before bedtime.
You may find some old magic books in a castle as Harry Potter once did. Read them before you go to bed, because when you fall asleep the magic of castle life may appear before your eyes.
小題1: For what purpose were the castles built in England?
A．To defend the city or country against enemies.
B．To provide a working place for blacksmiths.
C．To raise poultry (家禽) and livestock (家畜).
D．To provide a place for teenagers to learn magic.
小題2: Why were the ancient castles noisy?
A．Because soldiers practiced sword fights there.
B．Because blacksmiths did ironwork there.
C．Because children of all ages played around them.
D．All of the above.
小題3: Which of the following about family life in castles is true according to the passage?
A．The servants in castles lived an easy life.
B．The wife spent much of the day at home.
C．Supper was eaten before sunset.
D．Dinner was eaten in the middle of the day.
小題4:The main idea of this passage is ______.
A．castles were not good places to live in
B．castles in novels are different from those in history
C．Harry Potter's story in a castle affected people
D．what real life was like in an ancient castle
