11.I'm not an animal lover.Cats make me sneeze.When our daughter left home it never occurred to me to fill the empty home with a dog.But with Turkey now considering a law that would gather Istanbul's about 150,000 homeless cats and dogs,I may well change my mind.
It wouldn't be possible to live in a neighborhood here and be against all animals.Hairy dogs walk down our main street,and my garden is home to lots of wild cats.The animals are wild in the sense that they don't belong to any single person.
These animals lead a good life.Self-appointed protectors put out food and water all year around.The doctor's wife is forever nursing a sick cat."live and let live"is the motto.The dogs bark at night defending their area,and if we tried to get rid of them,we'd only get a pack of unfamiliar ones in their place.
Senpolat,one of my neighbors,is the head of the Animal Rights Federation.He angrily complains about the illegal pet trade,the badly---run zoos and the failure to criminalize animal cruelty.
This summer the government suggested taking homeless animals off the streets and put them in"wild life parks"."Death camps"is how Senpolat described those,imagining a real dog-eat-dog world.The scheme reminds people of the great animal disaster of 1910,when a new,modern government forced thousands of dogs to live at a small island off Istanbul.The wind would carry the frightening howls(嚎叫) of the starving animals back to the city.
Other voices rose last Sunday when thousands of people in cities across the country walked through the streets to protest against the new law.First thing Monday morning,the government cancelled the law.Civil protest is not unusual in Turkey,but it's unusual for the government to listen.
66.What lead to the author's changing her mind about animals?B
A.Her daughter   B.The new considering law in Turkey  
C.Her neighbor   D.Her family
67.According to the text,the writer thought thatC.
A.most people enjoyed the barks of dogs at night
B.it was good to put homeless animals in wild life parks
C.it is normal that homeless animals live in the neighbor
D.the government always tended to listen to civil protest
68.Why did Senpolat describe"wild life parks"as"Death camps"?B
A.Because it was illegal to trade I animals.
B.Because homeless animals would starve to death.
C.Because animals can't adapt to the new environment.
D.Because animals can't live at peace with each other.
69.What did the author feel when the government cancelled the new law?D
A.Thrilled.B.Sad.C.Concerned.D.Unexpected.
70.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A
A.Live and Let Live            B.Bad Living Conditions of Animals
C.Leave Dogs and Cats There    D.Limit the Activity of Animals.

分析 本文主要講述政府對無家可歸動物實施了一項新的法律,但最后取消了,引起極大的反感.

解答 BCBDA
66  B  細節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章第一 段with Turkey now considering a law that would gather Istanbul's about 150,000 homeless cats and dogs,I may well change my mind可知改變作者想法的是The new considering law in Turkey  故選B.
67  C  細節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章第二 段It wouldn't be possible to live in a neighborhood here and be against all animals. 可知住在這里不可能反對所有動物,故選C.
68  B  細節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章第五 段The wind would carry the frightening howls(嚎叫) of the starving animals back to the city.可知無家可歸的動物會餓死,故選B.
69  D  細節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章最后一段 Civil protest is not unusual in Turkey,but it's unusual for the government to listen.可知作者沒有預料到政府會取消這個法律,故選D.
70  A   主旨大意題.  通讀全文可知本文主要講述政府對無家可歸動物實施了一項新的法律,但最后取消了,引起極大的反感.故選A.

點評 做閱讀理解時要快速的瀏覽全文,把握文章主旨大意,帶著問題回到原文,尋找細節(jié)或概括相應的答案,最后要理清作者寫作思路.

20.When I was about 12,I had an enemy,a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺點).Week by week her list grew:I was very thin,I wasn't a good student,I talked too much,I was too proud,and so on.I tried to hear all this as long as I could.At last,I became very angry.I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly,and then he asked,"Are the things she says true or not?Janet,didn't you ever wonder what you're really like?Well,you now have that girl's opinion.Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true.Pay no attention to the other things she said."
I did as he told me.To my great surprise,I discovered that about half the things were true.Some of them I couldn't change (like being very thin),but a good number I could-and suddenly I wanted to change.For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy.He refused to take it."That's just for you,"he said."You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself.But you have to learn to listen,not just close your ears in anger and feel hurt.When something said about you is true,you'll find it will be of help to you.Our world is full of people who think they know your duty.Don't shut your ears.Listen to them all,but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do."
Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments.In my life,I've never had a better piece of advice.
21.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter's complaint?D
A.He refused to take the list and have a look at it.
B.He told her not to pay any attention to what her"enemy"had said.
C.He was angry and told her to overcome her shortcomings.
D.He told her to write down all and pay attention only to the things that were true.
22.What does"Week by week her list grew"mean?A
A.Week by week she discovered and pointed out more shortcomings of mine.
B.She kept on adding new ones to the list so it was growing longer and longer.
C.I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.
D.Week by week,my shortcomings grew more serious.
23.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?C
A.My Father
B.My Childhood
C.The Best Advice I've Ever Had
D.Not an Enemy,but the Best Friend.
