第一節(jié)閱讀理解(共15小題;每小題2分,滿分30分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D項(xiàng)中,選出最佳答案。
We’ve talked about snails (蝸牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They are in their shells (殼) —sleeping.
Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into his shell. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all  the winter months in its shell, asleep.
In the spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail  looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (觸角), are very weak. But its sense (感覺(jué)) of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens.
A snail’s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大頭針). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can’t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.
51. A snail _________.
A. moves more slowly at night        B. has thousands of  feet
C. doesn’t move at all                     D. sleeps much of the time
52. In the sentence “A snail draws its body into its shell”,  the word “draw” means _____.
A. to make with a pencil        B. to push      C. to pul     D. to move away
53. From the story, we know _________.
A. a snail’s shell is very thin           B. a snail can’t see well
C. a snail’s nose is quite short        D. a snail’s body changes                                    in different seasons
54. A snail goes to sleep when _____.
A. it feels hungry   B. it is put into a paper box  C. spring is coming   D. it rains heavily
55. Which of the following is wrong?
A. In winter the snail doesn’t eat or move.

A Magical Experience
One hot August afternoon, Deena Hoagland and her son Joe sat on a floating platform at Dolphins Plus, a marine(海洋)center near their home in Florida. Nearby, a large, powerful, six-hundred-pound dolphin circled to study the mother and her child. Suddenly, it splashed the Hoaglands with water. That is when something amazing happened. Three-year-old Joe Hoagland smiled. Sitting with Joe on her lap, Deena smiled, too, as her heart leapt with joy. It was the first sign of hope she had seen in Joe since his stroke(中風(fēng))six weeks earlier.
Joe Hoagland was born with a rare heart condition that had forced him to spend much of his first three years of life in hospitals. After a series of open-heart surgeries, Joe seemed to be doing better, but the last surgery on his heart resulted in a stroke, which left him unable to move one side and to see out of one eye.
Worse still, the spirit of the child, who had bravely battled his illness until then was seemingly broken. Afraid of his doctors and unwilling to participate in efforts at physical therapy(治療), Joe grew listless, losing interest even in his favorite toys.
Having heard of a new therapeutic approach termed “dolphin-assisted therapy,” Deena phoned Dolphins Plus and asked permission to bring her son along. There Joe met Fonzie, the playful dolphin. With each passing visit, Joe seemed to make more progress. Before long, he was regaining some movement on his left side. Dolphins Plus trainers urged Joe to get into the water and swim with his new friend. Joe, however, was reluctant. Gradually, though, Joe became more comfortable with the large dolphin, and by mid-September, Joe was swimming with his friends.
Over the next two years, Joe fully recovered from the paralysis and partial blindness that his doctors thought irreversible. Now a healthy, active teenager, Joe lives a life similar to any of his friends. He visits and swims frequently with his friend Fonzie and helps his parent with Island Dolphin Care. Deena started Island Dolphin Care to work with Dolphins Plus to share the benefits of dolphin therapy with other special-needs children and their parents.
41.Deena Hoagland smiled when Fonzie splashed Joe with water because             .

C.she was affected by Joe’s joy               D.she realized Joe recovered
42.Paragraph 2-4 are written to           .
A.expose the dangers of strokes
B.identify the problems Joe faced
C.describe Joe’s recovery from beginning to end
D.show readers the process of “dolphin-assisted therapy”
43.What does the underlined word mean in paragraph 3?
A.a(chǎn)ngry and inflexible                        B.more mature and silent
C.lacking energy and concern                  D.cautious and shy
44. Which statement about Joe is Not True?
A. Joe received several surgeries on the heart when he was a little child.
B. Joe was the first one to receive dolphin-assisted therapy.
C. Doctors used to think that Joe could not recover.
D. Now Joe worked with his parents in the Island Dolphin Care.
45.We may conclude from the passage that            .
A.dolphin therapy has helped many children to improve their lives
B.Joe recovered faster because of his desire to live with Fonzie
C.doctors’ mistake during his surgeries brought Joe great pain
D.his mother’s company contributes greatly to Joe’s recovery
