         Although it is less often read than such Wells' novelsas The War of the Worlds,the basic
    story of The Island o fDr Moreau is very well known through several extremelyloose film
    adaptations (改编 ). Prendick, aBritishscientist,has an accident at sea and by chance finds
    himself on amysterious island where Dr Moreau and his assistant Montgomery are engaged
    in strange experiments of turninganimals into humans.
         Wells was a social reformer,and his novels reflect(反映) his thoughts and theories about
    human society. Much of  Wells'writing concerns ( either directly or indirectly) socialclass,
    but Moreau deals with the then-newly advanced theoryof evolution (进化)-and then works
    to relate how that theory influences man' s belief in God. Wells sometimes mentioned this in
    his novels,but nowhere in his work i.s this line of thought more clearly and specifically seen
    than here.
         Sometimes Wells tries to influence his readers strongly, while on other occasions,he does
    it gently. But in The Island of Dr Moreau,Wells achieves a perfect balance of the twoextremes.
    It is an impressive achievement,and in this sense I consider Moreau possibly the best of
    Wells' works. The novel is as interesting for the story it tells as it is for its themes that are still
    very important today.
         Moreau is not as horrific as Wells' many other novels--- he often included horror and
    cruelty in his science fiction. Still,this is not a book that you can read and then put away: it
    stays in your mind in a most disturbing way. Stronglyrecommended.

    1.We learn from Paragraph 2 that Wells ______.
    A. expressed his ideas about society in his novels
    B. didn't mention the theory of evolution in Moreau
    C. used his pen to fight for human rights
    D. paid little attention to social developments
    2. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?
    A. Most of Wells' novels remain unknown.
    B. Wells was a science fiction writer.
    C. The Island o f Dr Moreau is a horror story.
    D. Wells' writing style is humorous.
    3. The author's attitude towards The I.sland o f Dr Moreau is that of ______ .
    A. doubt
    B. unconcern
    C. praise
    D. respect  
    4. The passage is probably taken from.

    A. an official document
    B. a scientific article
    C. a newspaper report
    D. a book review

         As computers become all the morepopular in China, Chinese people areincreasingly
    relying on computer keyboardsto input Chinese characters. But if they usethe computer
    too much, they may end up

    forgetting the exact strokes(笔画) of each Chinese characterwhen writing on paper. Experts
    suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.
         Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing,students start using a computer
    as early as primary school.And computer dependence is more wide-spread among

    though I feel I'mfamiliar with it. "
         "I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a penand paper. "
         Many students don't feel this is something to worryabout. Now that it's more convenient
    and efficient to writeon a computer, why bother to handwrite? Many educators think
    differently. Shi Liwei, theheadmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said"Chinese
    characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的 )value.But those character styped
    with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artisticbeauty of the
    characters is lost. And handwriting containsthe writer's emotion. Through one's handwriting,
    peoplecan get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautifulwriting will give people a better
    first impression of them. "
         To encourage students to handwrite more, manyprimary schools in Beijing have made
    writing classescompulsory(必修的 ) and in univery,ities,some professors areasking students
    to turn in their homework and essayswritten by hand.

    1. Which of the following can best serve as the title of thepassage?

         MIT researchers and their colleagues are working tofind out whether energy from trees
    can power a network ofsensors(传感器)to prevent spreading forest fires.
         What they learn could also raise the possibility of usingtrees as silent guards along the
    nation's borders to discoverpotential threatssuchassmuggled (走私的 ) radioactivematerials.
         The U. S. Forest Service currently predicts and tracksfires with a variety of tools,
    including remotc automatcdweather stations. But these stations arc expcnsive andsparsely
    (稀疏地) distributed. Additionalsensors could savetrees by providing better local climate
    data to be used in fireprediction models and earlier warnings. However,rechargingor
    replacing batteries by hand at very hard-to-reach locationsmakes it impractical and costly.
         The new sensor system seeks to avoid this problem bydeveloping trees into a
    self-sustaining power supply. Eachsensor is equipped with a battery that can be slowly
    recharged using electricity produced by the tree. "A singletree doesn't generate a lot of
    power, but over time thetrickle (细流 ) chargeaddsup, justlike '-', saidShuguang Zhang,
    one of the researchers on the project andthe associate director of the MIT' s Center for
    Biomedica}Engineering( CBE). "
          The system produces enough electricity to allow the temperature and humidity sensors
    to wirelessly send outsignals four times a day,or immediately if there's a fire.Each signal
    spreads from one sensor to another, until itreaches an existing weather station that sends
    the data bysatellite to a forestry command center in Boise,Idaho. Scientists have long
    known that trees can produceextremely small amounts of electricity. But no one knew
    exactly how the energy was produced or how to takeadvantage of the power.
    1. What are the disadvantages of the remote automatedweather stations?
    a. They cost too much.
    b. They are of poor quality.
    c. They are not enough.
    d. They can't reach remote places.
    A. a,b
    B. b,d
    C. a,c
    D. b,c
    2. Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in theblank?

    A. Far water does not put out near fire.
    B. All rivers run into sea.
    C. Many a little makes a miracle.
    D. It never rains but it pours.

    3. What would be the best title for the passage?
    A. Preventing forest fires with tree power
