16．Like any good mother，when Karen found out that another（11）babywas on the way，she did what she could to help her three-year-old son，Michael，（12）preparefor a new life．They found out that the new baby was going to be a girl，and every day Michael sang to his （13）sisterin Mommy's tummy．
The days went by．The little girl got（14）worseafter the birth．The doctor told the parents，"There is very（15）littlehope．Be prepared for the worst．"They had fixed up a special（16）roomin their home for the new baby，but now they（17）planneda funeral．
Michael kept begging his parents to let him see his sister．"I want to（18）singto her，"he said．If he didn't see sister now，he might never see her（19）alive．She dressed him in an oversized suit and marched him into ICU，but the head nurse（20）recognizedhim as a child and shouted．"Get the kid out of here now!No children are（21）allowed．"The mother rose up strong，and the （22）usuallymild-mannered lady glared steel-eyed into the head nurse's face．"He is not leaving（23）untilhe sings to his sister!"Karen towed Michael to his sister's bedside．He gazed at the tiny infant （24）losingthe battle to live，and he began to sing．In the pure （25）heartedvoice of a 3-year-old，Michael sang：
"You are my sunshine，my only sunshine．You make me happy when skies are gray…"
Instantly the baby girl（26）responded．The pulse rate became calm and steady．
"You never know，dear，how much I love you．Please don't take my（27）sunshineaway．"
"The other night，dear，as I lay sleeping，I（28）dreamedI held you in my arms…"
Michael's little sister relaxed．
The medical staff just called it a miracle．Karen called it a miracle of God's （29）love!
NEVER GIVE UP ON THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE．LOVE IS SO（30）UNBELIEVABLYPOWERFUL．

解答 11-15．ACBAD       16-20．BACDD       21-25．BBDCA      26-30．CADCB
11．A  baby嬰兒； relative親戚；boy男孩；girl女孩．根據(jù)本空所在的句意可知凱琳懷了另一個孩子，結(jié)合下文中"They found out that the new baby was going to be a girl"可知懷孕時不知男女，故選A．
12．C delight使…高興；play 玩耍；prepare準備；study學(xué)習(xí)．根據(jù)本空句意可知凱琳要幫助3歲的大兒子麥克為一個新生活做準備，結(jié)合選項詞意prepare for，故選C．
13．B  mother媽媽；sister妹妹；parents父母；father爸爸．根據(jù)本空句意可知他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這個胎兒應(yīng)該是個女孩，所以麥克摸著媽媽的肚子給他的妹妹唱歌，故選B．
14 A  worse 更糟糕；well好；better更好；terrible可怕．根據(jù)前后句意可知這個孩子生下就患有疾病，從下文
"Be prepared for the worst"可知隨著時間的推移女孩的情況變得更糟糕．故選A．
15．D much 很多；big大的；some一些；little 很�。�(lián)系前后語境可知小女孩的情況越來越糟糕，醫(yī)生并且說要為最糟糕的情況提前打算，所以本空句意用小孩子治愈好的希望很�。蔬xD

17．Prague
Prague is an ancient European city，featuring one of the most magnificent Old Towns in Europe，along with delicious food，inexpensive shopping and friendly people．Prague is also famous as being home to one of the most famous 20th century writers，F(xiàn)ranz Kafka．The famous Czech beer is also one of the reasons to visit Prague．
The narrow streets of the older parts of the town are appealing the visitors to take nice long walk and settle in some of the many restaurants，which offer top-quality foods at a low price．The buildings there are mostly tower-shaped，and so Prague is called"city of a hundred  spires．"
Mauritius
Also known as the Paradise on Earth，Mauritius lies about 560miles （900km） east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean．It is a place of magnificent natural beauty coupled with excellent customer service，which makes for an unforgettable romantic experience at the edge of the world's warmest ocean．
There are lots to see and do in Mauritius：the coral reefs （珊瑚礁） surrounding the island offer stunning beauty and great underwater adventures to those who want to dive into the precious waters．The nature of Mauritius mostly resembles that of Paradise，allowing every couple visiting this island to feel like Adam and Eve．That is an experience nobody would want to miss!
Cyprus
The very name Cyprus，it has been said，glitters with an age-old myth．Today，history and hedonism （快樂論） are comfortably mixed on the island．Some five-star resorts within walking distance of well-preserved Greek and Roman ruins offer the convenience the modern traveler has come to expect．
Cyprus features a romantic history，as it was Anthony's gift to his beloved Cleopatra during the glorious days of the Roman Empire．Maybe that is why you feel always a little special once you set foot on Cyprus．

4．The Zebra Finch：An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet
The zebra finch，a native of Australia，is a popular domestic pet in the United States．The bird has many attributes （特性） which allow it to be kept at home，though there are also a few negative aspects．The attributes are nest-building，breeding and a lively attitude．The potential negatives are over-breeding and the wildness of the birds．
One of the main attributes of zebra finches is their ability to breed．They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world．Once you have two birds，male and female，you will soon have six，as they breed quite easily and have strong babies，usually four at a time．An added attribute is their ability to build their own nests．You can place branch in their place along with some kind of structure，and they will create a nest on their own．It's very pleasant to see the ways males and females divide some labors and share others，and the babies grow up quickly．Overall，zebra finches are energetic birds，and they can make every place where they live delightful lives．
On the negative side，they will breed and in-breed．Often，in-breeding does little harm and does not cause genetic defects （缺陷），as happens more often in other species．However，no one can tolerate just any population level．One has to either remove their nests altogether，which basically removes their personal living place，or check for eggs regularly once a week （the gestation period is 13days，so even a one-week neglect can lead to births）．Eggs can be replaced with false plastic eggs，and this prevents females from laying too many．If they do lay too many，they will die from mineral loss．Since these birds do not tame well，removing eggs can be an unpleasant process of repeatedly invading their personal space．
Overall，it is unfortunate that zebra finches are inexpensive birds due to their high level of breeding．They require considerable care to live happy lives．The best care-takers are true avian fanciers-people who have appropriate space for the nests and enough time to allow them to nest-build and breed without over-breeding．

70．What is the passage mainly about？C
A．Zebra finches over-breed by nature and its consequent ill effects．
B．Only people who love birds can take care of Zebra finches．
C．Domestic zebra finches require a lot of care to live happy lives．
D．Zebra finches never become completely tame．
71．By saying"They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world"，the writer means that both rabbits and Zebra finchesA．
A．have good ability to breed  
B．a(chǎn)re difficult to be raised
C．live delightful lives    
D．share responsibilities
72．In paragraph 3，the word"gestation"probably meansD．
A．the period when eggs remain fresh
B．the time when finches build up their nest and lay eggs
C．the time required for the parents to create a nest
D．the time required for baby birds to develop and to be born
73．According to the passage，attributes of domestic zebra finches includeB．
A．their rareness and easiness to be tamed
B．their nest-building，sharing of responsibilities and delightful personalities
C．their in-breeding，which does not cause as much genetic harm as in other species
D．the fact that they are from Australia and have difficulty in adapting themselves．

4．Much meaning can be conveyed，clearly，with our eyes，so it is often said that eyes can speak．
Do you have such kind of experience？In a bus you may look at a stranger，but not too long．And if he is sensing that he is being stared at，he may feel uncomfortable．
The same in daily life．If you are looked at for more than necessary，you will look at yourself up and down，to see if there is anything wrong with you．If nothing goes wrong，you will feel angry toward others'stare at you that way．Eyes do speak，right？
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive．But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex．If a man glances at a woman for more than 10seconds and refuses to move his gaze，his intentions are obvious，that is，he wishes to attract her attention，to make her understand that he is admiring her．
However，the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time，in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking，to tell him that he is attentive．
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking，as if he tries to dominate you，you will feel uncomfortable．A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim，since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication．Quite the contrary．
