28、 Jiangxi Province, an official said Monday. The earthquake, measuring 5.7 on the Richter scale, rocked Ruichang and Jiujiang on Saturday morning, killing at least 15 and injuring around 400. Thousands of houses collapsed or were badly damaged. Tremors were felt in neighbouring Hubei Province, where
29、one was killed and nearly 100 injured; and in Anhui Province, where dozens of homes were damaged. Tents were the focus of relief efforts in the hardest-hit Ruichang city as hundreds of thousands of wary(谨慎的) people continued to stay in the open. In the city, more than 420,000 people had left their h
30、omes because of some aftershocks every now and then; and most of them lived in tents put up in open spaces or on wide streets. Hundreds of patients were being treated in tents because hospital buildings suffered structural damage. The hospital is treating about 100 who were injured on Saturday. Ruic
31、hang Peoples Hospital, with makeshift tents and plastic shelters serving as wards(病房), was treating dozens of injured but was already much too crowded, local media reported. About 6,300 tents yesterday reached Ruichang and Jiujiang, which were near the epicenter (震中); and 1,500 more were on their wa
32、y from Hubei, said Liu Yongfa, an official with the Ministry of Civil Affairs in charge of disaster. Zhang Xiao, a Ruichang citizen whose two-storey house was damaged, has to share a tent with his neighbours because of the limited number. “Children and the elderly get priority,“ said Zhang. As local
33、 government officials said more tents were needed. People there also received instant noodles, cakes, milk and bottled mineral water. 56.

36、e disaster D. help from other areas B It began when Peter Parker was attending a high-school demonstration of radiation technology. A spider crept into the beam of radiation and bit Peters hand. This gave him superhuman spider- like abilities. Every boy may want to be a hero like him. But how much d
37、o you know about a real spider? Why can spiders walk up walls? Spider-Man can stick to almost any surface. Many spiders do this by producing a little bit of sticky silk onto their feet as they move across the surface, fixing their feet in place. Others have millions of specially shaped, microscopic
38、hairs on their legs that slip into all tiny spaces of a ceiling or window. This also explains why you find spiders in the bath - they cant hold anything on the smooth surface to climb out. Stronger than steel Anyone who has ever walked into a spiders web knows that the silk is extremely strong. Drag
39、line silk, which spiders use to crawl down from ceiling to floor, is the strongest of all. Weight for weight it is actually stronger than steel, holding over 280,000,000kg per square metre (400,000 pounds per square inch) without breaking. Unfortunately, its very difficult to farm spiders for their
40、silk because they tend to eat each other. So some scientists try to steal the spiders silk gene and put it into something more friendlylike a goat. Spider-Goats In an unlikely coupling, genetic engineers have now bred goats that have spider silk genes inside them. By doing this, they can harvest the
41、 silk proteins from the goats milk (silky milk, anyone?). The silk gene was just one of 70,000 that make up the DNA blueprint for building a normal goat. In adult female goats, the silk gene is made active only while the animal is producing milk. Called bio-steel, the silk could be used in medical s
42、upplies, space equipment and bullet-proof vests. So theres a new superhero in town. Swinging from skyscraper to skyscraper, fighting crime! Its - Spider-Goat! 60. The passage above is mainly about _. A. a very famous movie Spiderman B. some experiments made on spiders C. features of spiders D. a new
43、 creature - spider-goat 61. A spider-goat is an animal _.

Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. A sp
44、ider can walk on any surface with its silk and hairs. B. Scientists create the spider-goat by putting the spiders silk gene into a goats body. C. People cant farm spiders for their silk. D. Goats are more friendly than spiders. 63. “Bio-steel” mentioned in the passage is _. A. the steel produced by
45、animals B. the silk which can take the place of steel C. the steel which can be used in medical supplies D. the silk which is stronger than steel C Summertime: the smell of the barbecue, the roar of holiday crowds at events throughout the land, family, picnics and the beach. Its Americas birthday pa
46、rty and everyone is invited. Although July 4th is celebrated as the day on which America broke away from Britains rule and the beginning of the American Revolution, the actual series of events show that the process took far longer than a single day. The original resolution (决议案) was introduced by Ri
47、chard Henry Lee of Virginia on June 7, 1776, and called for the Continental Congress to declare the United States free from British rule. Three days later a committee headed by Thomas Jefferson was chosen to prepare a suitable writing for the occasion. The document that we know as the Declaration of
48、 Independence was adopted by Congress on July 4th although the resolution that led to the writing of the Declaration was actually approved two days earlier. All of this had occurred with some of the delegates(代表) to the Congress not even present; New York, for example, did not even vote on the resol
49、ution until July 9th. Even more interesting is the fact that not a single signature was appended(签署) to the Declaration on July 4th. While most of the fifty-six names were in place by early August, one signer, Thomas McKean, did not actually sign the Declaration until 1781. Nevertheless, July 4th was the day singled out to mark the event of the United States founding itself as a nation. 64. The first paragraph gives us
