14．Zoology（動物學(xué)）is the part of science that deals with the study of the animals'growth，home and behavior．It has nothing to do with people，so many students are left wondering why they have to learn it．
   Our nature includes not just humans but plants and animals as well．Everything in our environment is connected in a complex cycle．If you have a better understanding of how animals would behave and work with us，then you would value nature better．
   Some animals are actually misunderstood by people like sharks and snakes．These creatures are thought of as human killers，and this is mainly because we don't understand why they behave that way．In zoology you would be able to learn natural behavior as well as their homes so you would completely understand why they would behave in a defensive（防御的） manner when they seem to be threatened．Studying zoology would help people achieve clearness over the common myths we have on different wild animals．
   Studying zoology would help people know the real facts about animals．One of the negative facts is the decreasing numbers of some species of animals．It makes people realize that there is a need for nature to be always balanced．We need animals to keep the balance in our environment and for humans to survive as well．It would help us learn the needs that animals lack and we can respond by thinking of solutions we can give to the endangered species of animals．
  Modern progress is needed for a country to grow in terms of its economy； however，it should not force us to destroy our rainforests and oceans．People should realize that our modern lives should include the lives of the animals that live with us．They should not be contained in zoos but in their natural homes as well．We will learn that every living creature on the earth has the right to own a home and we need to fight for them to have permanent（永久的） homes．

分析 很多人都認(rèn)為動物學(xué)和人類沒有關(guān)系，為什么我們要學(xué)習(xí)動物學(xué)呢？本文接著就對這個問題進(jìn)行了回答．也就是說本文是說明研究動物學(xué)的重要性的．

解答 BDAB
60．B 推理題．根據(jù)文章第二段Everything in our environment is connected in a complex cycle．If you have a better understanding of how animals would behave and work with us，then you would value nature better．可知自然界里的一切都是聯(lián)系在一起的，所以我們一定要認(rèn)真對待我們的大自然．故B正確．
61．D 推理題．根據(jù)本段2，3，4行It makes people realize that there is a need for nature to be always balanced..We need animals to keep the balance in our environment and for humans to survive as well．可知在這個大自然里，我們需要動物來保持平衡．動物的作用也就是幫助人類維護大自然的平衡．故D正確．
62．A 推理題．根據(jù)文章最后3行They should not be contained in zoos but in their natural homes as well．We will learn that every living creature on the earth has the right to own a home and we need to fight for them to have permanent（永久的） homes．可知我們不應(yīng)該把動物關(guān)在籠子里，我們應(yīng)該關(guān)注每一種動物的發(fā)展，做關(guān)心動物的有心人．故A正確．
63．B 主旨大意題．根據(jù)文章第一段最后一句It has nothing to do with people，so many students are left wondering why they have to learn it．可知很多人都認(rèn)為動物學(xué)和人類沒有關(guān)系，為什么我們要學(xué)習(xí)動物學(xué)呢？本文接著就對這個問題進(jìn)行了回答．也就是說本文是說明研究動物學(xué)的重要性的．故B正確．

點評 做閱讀時經(jīng)常犯錯的主要原因是，僅憑讀過文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來勾選答案，這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設(shè)布下的題目陷阱．所謂閱讀理解，對于題目的理解一定要忠實于原文，因此，每一道題都應(yīng)該與原文作全面的對比與核查，再得出答案．也就是說，閱讀理解的每一道題目，在原文都應(yīng)該有明確的出處，我們把這一出處叫做原文相關(guān)句，（1）排除與原文相關(guān)句主題不一致的選項（2）排除與原文相關(guān)句態(tài)度相反的選項  （3）排除用于過于極端或負(fù)面的選項（4）注意結(jié)合文章主旨和主題去排除．

4．It is not a good idea to stop the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play．During the past year he had stopped performances many times at the National Theatre when mobile phones rang，and he threw out one member of the audience because she failed to turn off her phone．
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance in Alan Bennett's The History Boys，he spoke angrily to the theatergoer，"I am not going to compete with these electronic devices （裝置）．"
Griffiths'actions led to a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres．Actors have already asked the govern-
ment to legalize the use of an electronic device that stops mobile phone signals in theatres．
Technology companies have"stopping"devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency as a mobile phone，stopping the mobile phone signals．
However，these are forbidden in many countries because they might stop emergency （緊急情況） calls from being made．
Rosemary Squire，president of the Society of West End Theatre，said，"Phones are one of the biggest problems theatres face．We should look at equipment that could stop phones or make a London-wide theatre rule．"
Nick Allott，the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group，said，"We would all welcome some ways of keeping phones from ringing but doctors and emergency workers need to be connected in a theatre and we mustn't stop that．"What can we do to solve the problem？
66．The first two paragraphs are written toC．
A．tell us some information about the famous actor Griffiths
B．introduce the topic of whether or not to forbid phones in theatres
C．blame Griffiths for his rude behavior
D．give us advice on mobile phone use
67．What can we know from the second paragraph？B
A．Surely Griffiths did better than mobile phones in the theatre．
B．Griffiths didn't want mobile phones to affect his performance．
C．Griffiths was jealous that mobile phones attracted the audience's attention．
D．Griffiths taught theatergoers a lesson in the performance as a teacher．
68．According to the passage，"stopping"devicesC．
A．have the same functions as mobile phones
B．cause the biggest problem theatres have to face
C．prevent the mobile phones signals from being received

69．According to Nick Allott，D．
A．"stopping"devices can make the sound of mobile phones disappear
B．no one except doctors and emergency workers should have mobile phones
C．phones are one of the biggest problems theatres face
D．We can't totally stop the use of phones in theatres．
70．What is the passage probably going to talk about next？C

5．Youngsters who have no regular bedtime or who go to bed later than 21：00 have lower scores for reading and maths．Lack of sleep may influence how well the brain learns new information．
The findings on sleep patterns and brain power come from a UK study of more than 11，000 seven-year-olds．
Theygathered information on the children at the ages of three，five and seven to find out how well they were doing with their learning and whether that might be related to their sleeping habits．
Establishing （制定） a good bedtime routine early in childhood is important．Irregular bedtimes were most common at the age of three，when around one in five of the children went to bed at varying times．By the age of seven，more than half the children had a regular bedtime of between 19：30 and 20：30．
Children with irregular bedtimes tended to be less successful than their playmates in terms of test scores for reading，maths and spatial awareness（空間想象）．The influence was more obvious throughout early childhood in girls than in boys and appeared to be increasing．
The researchers said it was possible that irregular bedtimes were a reflection of chaotic （無秩序的） family settings and they had an influence on cognitive （認(rèn)知的） performance in children．The children with late and irregular bedtimes came from more socially disadvantaged backgrounds and were less likely to be read to each night and，generally，watched more TV．After controlling for such factors，the link between poorer mental performance and irregular bedtimes remained．
67．The text mainly deals with the relation between children'sD．
A．reading abilities and their sleeping habits
B．mental development and their sleeping habits
C．behaviour and their studying habits
D．performance in learning and their sleeping habits
68．The underlined word"They"in the third paragraph refers to"B"
A．the findings                     
B．the researchers
C．the seven-year-olds             
D．the sleep patterns             
69．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text？C
A．About one third of the three-year-olds go to bed at irregular bedtimes．
B．Irregular bedtimes were most common before the children were three months old．
C．More than half the children didn't have a regular bedtime until they were seven years old．
D．Teachers should help their kids establish a good bedtime routine early in childhood．
70．We can know from the text thatD．
A．boys with irregular bedtimes do worse in reading than their playmates
B．girls with regular bedtimes perform better in learning than boys
C．girls with irregular bedtimes do worse in reading than boys
D．the gap between girls with and without regular bedtimes is larger than that between boys．

2．A blue hole is a flooded sea cave with a hole that opens up at the land's surface．These cave systems form in carbonate rock，often on islands．Some blue holes have very special rock formations and water chemistry．Far below sea level，they contain some of the harshest environments on Earth，with no oxygen and no light．Yet these areas are filled with life forms that have adapted to the extreme conditions．
Information gathered from these blue holes is helping scientists to increase their understanding of biology，archaeology and geology．But exploring these blue hole environments brings danger as well as discovery．
Blue holes get their name from the color some have when seen from the air．The color is usually a reflection of the sky on the water．But not all of these cave systems have blue surfaces．Some contain dark or muddy water．
Blue holes are the result of erosion in which water breaks down rock．Rain falling thousands of years ago contained chemicals which slowly wore away at the limestone landmass．These holes were later filled with sea water as the sea level changed．The rising and falling of sea levels and the mixture of salt and fresh water further wore away at these cave formations．Blue holes are vertical caves．But they can also have horizontal cave formations that may be hundreds of meters long．
These flooded cave systems can be found in the ocean，or they can be found inland．Ocean caves are affected by tides，so they always have water movement．But blue holes on land are very still．They have several layers of water，chemicals，and bacteria．The top layer of fresh water comes from rainfall．This layer acts like a cap on top of the layered mixture，and keeps out oxygen from the atmosphere．The fresh water floats on a denser layer of saltwater．Underneath this is a layer of poisonous hydrogen sulfide，produced by bacteria living in the water．Underneath this layer is anoxic seawater--water that does not contain any oxygen．
Underwater caves are probably one of the least explored ecosystems on the planet．One reason blue holes have not been fully explored is that they can be extremely dangerous．There are many safety rules that divers must follow to help ensure their survival．
First，divers must have training and experience to swim in these caves．Those who explore a cave for the first time must establish a thin rope called a guideline．This line helps them to safely enter and bring more than one set of breathing equipment in case one device fails．Meanwhile，they must pay careful attention to their air supply．The rule is to use a third of their air to enter the cave，a third to exit，and a third for emergencies．
    For most explorers，though，the possibility of discovery in these cave environments makes the experience worth the risk．You can jump into what looks like an insignificant little hole in the ground，and come out with information that's of value to many different disciplines，Scientists are interested in these caves because oxygen-free conditions there are similar to those on Earth long ago，before oxygen existed on our planet．，as well as similar to space．
50．According to the Passage，blue holesB．
A．a(chǎn)re now a popular choice for tourists
B．a(chǎn)re flooded caves found mostly on islands
C．have appeared as rocks pile up year by year
D．can give off bright blue light deep in the caves
51．It can be inferred front the passage thatD．
A．quantities of advanced life forms exist in blue boles
B．blue holes are not fully explored due to their low value
C．blue holes are vertical caves because of strong currents
D．the chemicals in the rain lead to the formation of blue caves
52．The fifth paragraph mainly talks aboutA．
A．two different types of blue holes    
B．how a blue hole comes into being
C．why scientists are interested in blue holes       
D．rules for divers exploring blue holes
53．When exploring blue holes，divers mustD．
A．have a thin rope as a guideline anytime           
B．wear glasses in case of bright blue light
C．swim as quickly as possible to save time          
D．learn to make good use of their air supply
54．The exploration of blue holes can help usB．
A．discover moue energy resources  
B．understand the origin of life on Farth
C．learn about the movements of seawater
D．get ready for the exploration of the ocean．

9．Like human beings，dogs may catch cold because of cold weather，wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs．If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes，coughs or sneezes（打噴嚏），then it is quite probable that the dog has caught cold．
A dog's cold can get over after a few days without treatment but it totally depends upon the owner to treat it with medications or improve its immune power （免疫力） to get rid of the cold naturally．Following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold．
You can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet．Healthy food can really do wonders．Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet（獸醫(yī)） or is healthy for your pet．Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A，C and E．
Keep your dog warm．The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house．Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet．At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets．This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast．
Increase the fluid（流質(zhì)）intake as it helps a lot．Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth （肉湯）in water which will give your dog strength．Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections（呼吸道感染）．
Steam treatment is considered to be effective in getting rid of cold．It makes the nasal（鼻的） passage wet，which helps proper breathing．Just fill your bathroom with steam and leave your dog inside the bathroom for 15 minutes．Do it nearly 2 to 3 times a day and you will see your dog recovering．
These are some of the things you can do to help your dog recover from cold．However，if you are not able to find any improvement in its health，then turn to the vet for help immediately．Take your dog for regular checkups so as to avoid complications（并發(fā)癥）．
64．From the first paragraph we know aboutD．
A．the difficulty in keeping a dog as a pet
