27、 in the United States. The rest of his family remained in Europe. When World War I broke out, he seemed to have become another man, downhearted. Such obvious change was not born out of concern for his welfare, but out of fear: if his only son, my uncle, had to go to war, it would be cousin fighting
28、against cousin.One day in 1918, my Uncle Milton received his draft notice. My grandparents were very upset. But my mother, at the age of 10, felt on top of the world about her soldier brother going off to war. Realizing how he was regarded by his little sister and all of her friends, my uncle bought
29、 them all service pins, which meant that they had a loved one in the service. All the little girls were delighted.The moment came when my uncle and the other soldiers, without any training but all in uniforms, boarded the train. The band played and the crowd cheered. Although no one noticed, Im sure
30、 my grandmother had a tear in her eye for the only son. The train slowly pulled out, but not about a thousand yards when it suddenly paused. Everyone stared in wonder as the train slowly returned to the station. There was a dead silence before the doors opened and the men started to step out. Someon
31、e shouted, “The war is over!” For a moment, nobody moved, but then the people heard someone bark orders at the soldiers. The men lined up in two lines, walked down the steps, and with the band playing, marched down the street, as returning heroes, to be welcomed home. My mother said it was a great d

34、est describe the ending of the story?A. Disappointing.B. Unexpected.C. Uncertain.D. Inspiring.BThree years ago, five parrots were set free in a wild place of Arizona, thousands of miles from the Channel Islands in Jersey where they had been looked after by zookeepers. No evolutionary strategies info
35、rmed them how to behave in this new landscape of mountainous pine forest unoccupied by their kind for 50 years. To the researchers surprise, they failed to make contact with a group of wild parrots imported from Mexico and set free at the same time. Within 24 hours the reintroducing ended in failure
36、, and the poor birds were back in cages, on their way to the safety of the Arizona reintroduction programme .Ever since then, the programme has enjoyed great success, mainly because the birds now being set free are Mexican birds illegally caught in the wild, confiscated (没收) on arrival north of the
37、border, and raised by their parents in the safety of the programme. The experience shows how little we know about the behaviour and psychology(心理 ) of parrots, as Peter Bennett, a bird researcher, points out: “Reintroducing species of high intelligence like parrots is a lot more difficult. People li
38、ke parrots, always treating them as nothing more than pets or valuable collectables.”Now that many species of parrot are in immediate danger of dying out, biologists are working together to study the natural history and the behaviour of this family of birds. Last year 嘉兴市高中英语学科基地 http:/第 8 页 共 15 页
39、was an important turning point: conservationists founded the World Parrot Trust, based at Hayle in Cornwall, to support research into both wild and caged birds.Research on parrots is vital for two reasons. First, as the Arizona programme showed, when reintroducing parrots to the wild, we need to be
40、aware of what the birds must know if they are to survive in their natural home. We also need to learn more about the needs of parrots kept as pets, particularly as the Trusts campaign does not attempt to discourage the practice, but rather urges people who buy parrots as pets to choose birds raised
41、by humans.55. What do we know about the area where the five parrots were reintroduced?A. Its landscape is new to parrots of their kind. B. It used to be home to parrots of their kind. C. It is close to where they had been kept. D. Pine trees were planted to attract birds.56. The reintroducing experi
42、ence three years ago shows that man-raised parrots _. A. can find their way back home in JerseyB. are unable to recognize their parents C. are unable to adapt to the wildD. can produce a new species57. Why are researches on parrots important according to the passage? A. The Trust shows great concern
43、 for the programme.B. We need to know more about how to preserve parrots. C. Many people are interested in collecting parrots.D. Parrots intelligence may some day benefit people.58. According to the passage, people are advised_.A. to treat wild and caged parrots equally B to set up comfortable homes
44、 for parrotsC. not to keep wild parrots as pets D. not to let more parrots go to the wildCWhen I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and havent had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I dont need one. I have a mobile phone a
45、nd Im always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices(装置)tell the time-which is why, if you look around, youll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007.But while the wise have realized that they dont need them, others-appar
46、ently including some distinguished men of our time-are spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices, up to 250,000 for a piece.This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. 嘉兴市高中英语学科基地 http:/第 9 页 共 15 页 Expensive watches come with extra functions-but who needs them?
