20、8 . Ive always been glad about that. It was Christmas time, and although there wasnt 39 for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 40 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 41 . They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 42 what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately,

21、I had saved $120 for 43 to share by all five of us. The big 44 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 45 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered (散开 ). We had two hours to shop; then we would 46 back at the Santas Workshop. Driving home, everyone was in

22、high Christmas spirits, 47 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 48 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didnt say anything 49 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, 50 to be angry again. This is what she tol

23、d me. I was looking 51 thinking of what to buy, and I 52 to read the little cards on the Giving Trees. One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 53 for Christmas was a doll (玩具娃娃 ).

Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑 ) in Japan because most streets there dont have names; in Japan, people use landmarks (地标 ) in their d

28、irections instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop. In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. Th

29、ere are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile. People in Los An

30、geles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. How far away is the post office? you ask. Oh, they answer, its about five minutes from here. You say, Yes, but how many miles away is it? They dont know. Its true that a person doesnt know the answer to

31、 your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, Sorry, I have no idea. But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers I dont know. People in Yucatan believe that I dont know is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in

32、Yucatan! 56. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually _. A. describe the place carefully B. show him a map of the place C. tell him the names of the streets D. refer to recognizable buildings and places 57.

33、New York. B. Los Angeles. C. Kansas. D. Iowa. 58. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _. A. in order to save time B. as a test C. so as to be polite D. for fun 59. What can we infer from the text? A. Its important for travelers to understand cultural differences. B. Its useful for tr

34、avelers to know how to ask the way properly. C. People have similar understandings of politeness. D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors. B Far from the land of Antarctica (南极洲 ), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic co

35、d. For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer. Research was begun by cutting holes in the i

36、ce and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fishs blood and measured its freezing point. The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of 1.88 and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to 2.05 . That sm

37、all difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture. The scientists next research job was clear: Find out what in the fishs blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质 ) never before seen in the bl

38、ood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point. Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules (分子 ) held in special positions within eac

39、h big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein. Or AFGP. 60. What is the text mainly about? A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic. B. A special fish living in freezing waters. C. The ice shelf arou

40、nd Antarctica. D. Protection of the Antarctic cod. 61. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature? A. The seawater has a temperature of 1.88 . B. It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture. C. A special protein keeps it from freezing. D. Its blood has a temperature lower than 2.05 . 62

41、. What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. A type of ice-salt mixture. B. A newly found protein. C. Fish blood. D. Sugar molecule. 63. What does glycol- in the underlined word glycoprotein in the last paragraph mean? A. sugar B. ice C. blood D. molecule C Trees are useful to man

42、in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood. Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees,so he has cut the

43、m down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear. This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there ar

44、e trees, their roots break up soil-make the rain in-and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left b

45、ut useless desert. 64. The most important points of trees to man is _. A. they help him to make money B. they give him cool C. they give him wood and other things D. they help him to stop drought and floods 65. In many places forests slowly disappear because _ . A. many trees have been cut down by m

46、an B. new trees are not well looked after C. man has not paid enough attention to planting trees D. all the above 66. Land becomes desert after all trees are cut down because _ . A. roots of trees break up the soil B. there are too many rainfalls C. strong winds bring a lot of sand D. there are no l

47、onger trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil. 67.Which title best fits the passage? A. Trees and Man B. The Function of Tree Wood C. How do People do with Trees? D. The Usage of Tree Roots D How can I learn English well? This is a question many students ask. In my opinion, the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart.
