I live in a very over populated beach area in the Los Angeles, and I love the beautiful scenery! But because of many people, lots of things are easy to be out of order, and sometimes it’s also easy to lose your cool. Today was a day I wish I did not get out of bed. I mean that if I did not have to wake up and deal with all the things that I deal with on a daily basis, it would have been wonderful. I had a cup of coffee this morning and that was my meal for breakfast, not healthy I know. Anyway, my stomach was sounding like a truck. So, I jumped in my car and decided to buy some food. I was in line at Taco Bell (一家墨西哥速食店) and the line was like a long snake! Finally I got to place my order, but a young girl in nice clothes pulled in and was stuck in such a way that unless I moved for her, she wouldn’t be able to get out. So I backed up and waved her into my place in the front of the line. To my surprise, this young girl did not say thanks. I was cool with it because I thought that I had done something nice for a change. After the girl received her food and pulled away, I pulled into the ordering spot, not mad, but hungry, and the employee said, “Hi, that girl just paid for your food.” That food was the most satisfying nourishment (营养品) my body had ever taken!

Whales, like dolphins, belong to a group of mammals (哺乳动物) called “cetaceans”. This namecomes from a Latin word meaning “large sea animal”. There are at least seventy-five kinds of cetaceans. Scientists divide the various kinds into two major groups - baleen whales, which do not have teeth, and toothed whales, which have teeth. Whales have the same basic shape as fish, but they differ from fish in many ways. The most noticeable difference is the tail. Fish have vertical (垂直的) tail fins(鳍), but whales have horizontal tail fins. Fish breathe by means of gills (腮), while whales have lungs (肺) and must come to the surface to breathe. But they can hold their breath for long periods. Like other mammals, whales give birth to live young and feed them with milk produced by the mother’s body. Most fish, however, lay eggs and do not feed their young. Whales are also warm-blooded - that is, their body temperature remains about the same all the time. Almost all fish are cold-blooded. Their body temperature changes with changes in the temperature of the water. Whales have a highly developed brain and they are highly advanced life forms. They sing to their young, engage in complex family relationships, and their communication skills are fine. In December 2005, a whale, after being rescued from fishing nets, didn’t just swim back to deep water. It hung around and touched each of the divers with its mouth. “Knowing that it was free, it stopped about a foot away from me, pushed me around a little bit and had some fun,” said dive master James Moskito. He thought it was “one of the most fantastic moments” of his life. |
1. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following shows the correct relationship? |
A. Mammals are a type of cetacean. B. Cetaceans are not a type of mammal. C. Whales belong to the cetacean family. D. Mammals are a type of whale. |
2. Which of the following is NOT a difference between whales and fish? |
A. Whales breathe by means of lungs. B. Whales have tail fins. C. Whales feed their young with milk. D. A whale’s body temperature nearly doesn’t change. |
3. What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about? |
A. How whales catch their food. B. How whales live in the ocean. C. The differences between whales and fish. D. Whales are highly advanced life forms. |
4. Why didn’t the whale swim back to the sea after it was saved? |
A. It lost its way in the sea. B. It was seriously wounded. C. It was frightened by the divers. D. It wanted to thank the divers |

On a one-acre site alongside many shrimp boats stands a $2.2 million assembly(组合体) of pipes, sheds , and humming machinery - a plant in Texas to make sea water suitable to drink. The plant is an experimental project built as the former of the state’s $150 million, full-scale sea water desalination (脱盐)plant planned for construction in 2010. Desalting sea water is expensive, mostly because of the energy required. The cost runs at about $650 per acre-foot, but it only costs $200 to purify(净化) the same amount of fresh water. However, it is a growing field around the world as drinkable water becomes less and less in the earth. About two-thirds of the world’s desalinated water is produced in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and North Africa. Perth, Australia, is looking to meet a third of its fresh water demand by removing salt from sea water. In March, Israel showed off its plant at the Mediterranean port of Ashkelon that can process 87 million gallons of fresh water a day. Singapore opened a sea water desalination plant in 2005 hoping it will meet at least 10 percent of its water needs. Two months ago, General Electric Co. announced a $220 million contract to build a plant in South Africa. Global output is still relatively minute - less than 0.1 percent of all drinking water. But according to a recent report by Global Water Intelligence, the worldwide desalination industry is expected to grow 140 percent over the next ten years, with $25 billion in investment by 2010, or $56 billion by 2015. |
1. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? |
A. Some countries stopped desalinating sea water because it’s too expensive. B. Singapore is the only country that has put desalinating sea water into practice. C. Purifying fresh water is much cheaper than desalinating sea water. D. Desalinating sea water should be controlled by the government. |
2. What is the passage mainly about? |
A. Many countries are trying to desalt sea water. B. How sea water is turned into fresh water. C. The present and future of desalting sea water. D. The world is in great need of fresh water. |
3. The word “minute” underlined in the last paragraph most probably means “_____”. |
A. exact B. close C. real D. tiny |
4. The author’s attitude towards the desalination industry can be described as _____. |
A. pessimistic B. optimistic C. satisfied D. worried |
