The 18-year-old star with some o

11、ther surfers sailed out to reach the dolphins in order to stop them from being driven into a nearby pool and killed, but the six surfers, from Australia and the United States, were stopped by a fishing boat before they could reach them. The fishermen blocked their way with a boathook (鉤篙). It was an

12、 ugly, unfriendly and life-threatening struggle before the surfers were forced to return to the beach. It is believed that the dolphins were later taken into a pool and killed. Panettiere, who is a brave surfer and loyal animal protector, made up her mind to save the dolphins of Japan and said, It w

13、as really frightening. Some of us were hit by the boathook, but in the end all we were really worried about was the dolphins. It was so sad. We were so close to them and they were jumping out of the water to see us. Breaking down in tears, she added, One little baby dolphin stuck his head out and lo

14、oked at me and the thought that its no longer with us is really hard to take. The surfers left the country to avoid arrest (逮捕)by the Japanese police. Panettiere is now back in Los Angeles. More than 22,000 dolphins are killed by fishermen in Japan every year. Many Japanese believe dolphins should b

15、e treated like fish. They have been hunting dolphins for centuries and see any criticism (批評) of this as an attack on their culture. 56. Why did the surfers get into trouble with the fishermen in Japan?A. They said something that hurt the fishermen. B. They entered a pool which wasnt allowed to go i

16、nto.C. They attacked Japanese culture.D. They tried to stop the fishermen from killing the dolphins.57. From Paragraph 3, we can learn that Panettiere _. A. was really frightened and sadB. succeeded in saving the dolphinsC. cried when they were hit by the boathookD. didnt like the Japanese fishermen

17、58. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. What Happened While Surfing in Japan B. Hayden Panettiere Cried in the Sea of Japan C. People Worldwide Are Against Killing Dolphins D. Protect the Wild Animals BThe influence of America is increasing in my country. Spanish peopl

18、e drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day. I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs

19、 and documentaries (紀錄片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood. In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from ot

20、her countries in Europe. American culture is a part of Spanish life now. Its certain that many things from America are as much a part of peoples lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. Ive known about Coca Cola for my whole life. Ho

21、wever, its different with Western fast food. For example, I dont think McDonalds is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home. On the other hand, maybe McDonalds hamburgers

22、 will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. Its true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonalds, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, its obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day. 59. From

23、the first paragraph we can know that _.A. the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhereB. most Spanish people dont like to listen to their own musicC. fast food spreads from Spain to the United StatesD. some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills 60.

A certain kind of food.CDo you like seahorses? What do you know about them?The seahorse is actually not a horse but a

26、fish, and much smaller than any regular horse. In general, a seahorse is about an inch long. It is a beautiful fish that likes warm waters, swims upright (直立的), and looks a little like a chess piece. Seahorses are an unusual kind of animal because the males (雄性) give birth to babies. Mating (交配) tak

27、es place in cooler waters on spring and summer nights with a full moon. The females (雌性) put their eggs into the bodies of the males, and the males give birth to baby seahorses. The seahorse can use each eye separately, which allows it to search for food without moving the rest of its body. Seahorse

28、s situate themselves near deep, fast-running channels rich in plankton, a kind of life on which they feed. They can catch food from an inch and a half away. Seahorses can change from gray or black to yellow or purple within seconds to fit in with their surroundings, and in this way escape from most

29、of their enemies. One of the surprising facts about seahorses for most people is that they are vertebrates (脊椎動物). They can turn and curl freely, and like to swim in pairs connected by their tails. Their tails are powerful, and they can use them to grasp the surrounding seaweed (海藻) to keep themselv

30、es from being swept away. So seahorses are usually found in warm water filled with seaweed. Now that you know all these facts about seahorses, dont you find them more interesting? 63. We can learn from the passage that seahorses _.A. are beautiful, and live on seaweed B. are as big as regular horses

B. Hold. C. Make. D. Handle.D When Joan gave birth to the first boy in her family in three generations,

33、 she and her husband were overjoyed. So were her parents. Joan expected her elder sister, Sally, to be just as delighted as them. Joan had always admired Sally-the beauty and the star of the family-and felt happy about her achievements. But since the babys arrival, the sisters have become distant. J

34、oan feels hurt for Sally seems completely uninterested in her baby. Sally, who has no children, claims that her younger sister acts as if no one ever had a baby before. Neither Sally nor Joan understands that the real cause of the current coldness is that their family roles have suddenly changed to

35、the opposite. Finally Joan seems to be better than her elder sister-and Sally doesnt like it! Their distance may be temporary, but it shows that childhood competition dont fade easily as ages grow. It can remain powerful in relationships throughout life. In a study of the University of Cincinnati, 6

36、5 men and women between ages 25 and 93 were asked how they felt about their brothers and sisters. Nearly 75 percent admitted having hidden competitive feelings.

38、inner. Happily, despite these small failings, we have been an important resource for each other.
