18、ard to look at. Why should it stand so high at the shoulders? Why have so long a head?” The 19th-century writer of those words, Henry David Thoreau, was hardly alone in his comment of the moose. Mooses funny appearance makes us think that it is clumsy and slow witted. Is that true? Researchers in No
19、rth American have uncovered many facts about this unusual animal. No one denies that the moose is a giant. Adult moose can grow as high as 1.5 to 2 meters, and weigh as 816 kg. Although is has long legs that make it seem foolish, it can run up to 55 km per hour, and those legs can kick off an entire
20、 pack of wolves. Moose is vegetarian. It feeds on woody plants, leaves and water plants. It learns to swim within days of birth, and they have been observed swimming for miles and diving to a depth of nearly 6 meters to feed on water plants! A moose can move its eyes and detect motion almost directl
21、y behind it without turning its head. Its nose is also effective tool. Researchers suggest that because the mooses nostrils (鼻孔) are far apart , they may give it the unusual ability to locate the objects on a 3D scale. The mooses hearing adds another merit to its sensory package. Its ears can turn t
22、o all directions, and they can pick up sounds from other moose as far as 3 km away!Baby moose tend to be curious and carefree. Their mothers protect them by providing tender and loyal care. They will attack any who are too close to there young, including wolves, bears, and even humans. Finally, when
23、 the young is about a year old and its mother is newly pregnant, the mother aggressively drives it away so that it can begin caring for itself. 31. The moose looks odd and awkward, so _. A. many people make fun of it B. many people consider it foolish C. many researchers study it D. many people are
24、afraid of it 32. The word “vegetarian” (Para. 2) probably means _. A. lovely B. kind-hearted C. huge D. plant-eating 33. We can learn from Paragraph 3 that the moose _. A. is a gentle animal B. is an aggressive animal C. has very sharp senses D. lives far apart from one another 34. We can conclude f
25、rom the last paragraph that mother moose _. A. take good care of their kids only for a short time B. take those approaching their young as a threat C. give birth to only one baby once in a year D. prefer younger babies to older ones 35. This passage is intended to tell us that _. A. the moose is rea
26、lly a giant and quite animal B. we should protect the environment for the moose C. the moose is not clumsy and foolish at all D. people should not disturb the mooses life Passage two I have a vegetable garden and every summer I enjoy eating my own vegetables. One day last summer I picked a dozen car
27、rots. Usually, as soon as I have picked the carrots, I clean the dirt off them by washing them in a bucket of water. But this day, as I was getting up from the ground with my twelve carrots, I tripped (绊) and fell over the bucket. The water spilled out of the bucket, so I decided to wash the carrots
28、 quickly in the kitchen sink. I put the carrots in the sink, washed them with water, and watched all the dirt washed away down the drain. The next day, when I was washing dishes, I noticed that the water drained out of the sink much more slowly than usual. It drained so slowly that I called a plumbe
29、r (水管工) to come and fix my drain. The plumber tried a lot of different cleaners and equipment, but nothing worked. He had to cut a hole in the floor where the drain pipe was in order to try to find the problem. While he was cutting the small hole, he accidentally cut the hot-water pipe. Hot water sp
30、rayed over the plumber, onto the floor, under the refrigerator; water went everywhere. My refrigerator stopped working because the water had affected the electrical wires. I called an electrician to come and fix the refrigerator. The electrician had to move the refrigerator to work on the wires. As
31、she was balancing it, she tripped over the plumbers tools. She fell down and the refrigerator tipped over. It crashed into the wall, resulting in a huge hole in the wall. I called a carpenter to come and fix the wall. In order to repair the hole in the wall, the carpenter had to tear down half of th
32、e entire wall. Meanwhile, the plumber was still looking for the source of the drain problem. Since the kitchen was in a terrible mess anyway, the plumber decided to remove part of the floor to look at the pipe there. In the middle of the floor, he found the problem: the dirt from the carrots was stu
33、ck in the pipe and nothing could go through. Now I had a sink that did not drain, a refrigerator that did not work, a wall that was half gone, and part of a floor that was missing. I looked at this disaster and decided that what I really needed was a new kitchen. Finally, I called a house builder to
34、 come can fix my kitchen. Three weeks later I had a new sink, a new refrigerator, new cupboards on a new wall, new tiles on a new floor, and $10,000 less in my bank. 36. The carrots were washed in the sink instead of the bucket because _. A. the water bucket fell over B. dinner needed to be made soo
35、n C. carrots were always washed in it D. they could be washed more cleanly 37. The plumber did all the following EXCEPT _. A. cut a hole in the floor B. cut the hot-water pipe C. try different cleaners D. tear down part of the wall 38. Which of the following caused the hole in the wall? A. Water tha
36、t sprayed on it. B. The electrician who worked on the wires. C. The refrigerator that crashed into it. D. The plumber who used a wrong tool. 39. Which of the following items was NOT damaged? A. The wall. B. The ceiling. C. The hot water pipe. D. The floor. 40. The best title of the passage would be
37、“_”.A. How a dozen carrots cost $10,000 B. What the dirt from carrots could doC. Carrots can be very expensive D. A careless homeowner Passage Three More boys than girls are born all over the world, but a new study has found that the closer people live to the equator (赤道), the smaller the difference
38、 becomes. No one knows why. The imbalanced sex ratio at birth has been known for more than a hundred years, and researchers have found a large variety of social, economic and biological factors that relate to the sex ratio at birth-war, economic stress, age, diet, selective, abortion and more. But l
39、atitude (纬度) is a natural phenomenon, unaffected by cultural or economic factors. To look at the effect of latitude, Kristen J. Navara of the University of Georgia used the latitude of the capital city in 202 countries, as well as 10 years of data on sex ratio at birth and annual variations in day l
40、ength and temperature. Dr. Navara performed a statistical analysis which showed that there was a significant relation between sex ratios in favor of boys and latitude. African countries produced the lowest sex ratios-50.7 percent boys-and European and Asian countries had the highest with 51.4 percen
41、t. There are some possible explanations, but none entirely satisfactory. It could be that there is some survival value in producing more girls in warmer regions, but it is unclear what this might be. There may be genetic or racial differences that could explain it, but the connection persists over s
42、o many varied populations that this seems unlikely. Mice also produce more male offspring during shorter days or colder weather, but the reasons in these animals are just as mysterious as they are in humans. “Theres a possibility that humans might be responding to factors they were programmed to res
43、pond to a long time ago-not cultural or socioeconomic, but climate and things like latitude,” Dr. Navara said. “Whats interesting is that we may be seeing something that connects us with our animal ancestry.” 41. What can be learned from the first paragraph? A. The closer to the equator, the more boys are born. B. Boys are more used to colder places.
