| 阅读理解 The Channel is the name given to the stretch(伸展) of water which separates England and France. Ferries(轮渡) operate all year round to carry people across the Channel, and they are busy most of the year. January is the only quiet month nowadays. As well as summer holiday-makers, there are day trippers and coach traffic, not to mention lorries and other commercial vehicles. Some ferries carry cars and their passengers, while others also connect train passengers with the continental rail network. The biggest hazard for the ferry is the wind. The crew listens to BBC weather reports four times a day. Or they sometimes get gale(wind) warnings from local radio station. Crossing the Channel by ferry is a bit like trying to cross Oxford Street on a busy afternoon, according to one ferryboat captain. The ferries from Folkstone and Dover to Calais and Boulogne have to cross the main flow of traffic. This consists of ships traveling through the Channel to and from Northern Europe. There may be four hundred ships making the journey at any one time, and they all pass through a "choke point" which is only fifteen miles (twenty-five kilometers) wide. The cross-channel ferries have to sail right through the middle of all this traffic. 1. The passage is mainly concerned with _____. A. cross-channel ferries B. the weather on the Channel C. the English Channel D. what crossing the Channel by ferry is like 2. You may find the Channel not so busy on __________. A. May 1st B. February 25th C. January 2nd D. September 5th 3. The word "hazard" is closest in meaning to ________. A. friend B. danger C. enemy D. safety 4. We can infer(推断) from the passage that _______.

| 阅读理解 Thomas Edison was one of ten said to be the greatest genius of his age. There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. "There is no such thing as genius, " Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard work. But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them. Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure. Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he had about life. "Work," he answered. "Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier." He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work. 1. The passage is mainly about _________. A. great genius in history B. a great inventor C. Edison's inventions D. love for nature 2. Edison thought _______. A. he could be happy if he was a genius B. genius plays the most important part in one's success C. hard work could do better than genius D. genius could do better than hard work 3.

A. thinking can supply people with enjoyment and pleasure as well as help B. people's success lies mostly in genius C. hard work is the second important thing in making people successful D. there are few secrets for him to discover later 5. The last sentence in the passage most probably implies . A. life is too short for Edison to invent more for human beings B. Edison made 100 inventions in his life C.

| 阅读理解 What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories. In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond l20 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on-in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones. It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future. 1. The author thinks the question how people die in the future __________. A. is simple B. is funny C. has something to do with bio-technology D. has something to do with environment 2. According to the passage, human death IS now mainly caused by . A. diseases and aging B. accidents and war C. accidents and aging D. heart disease and war 3.In the author' s opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in . A. medicine B. the Internet C. brain cells D. human organ 4.Humans may live longer in the future because . A. heart disease will be far away from us B. human brains can decide the final death C. the basic materials of cells will last forever D. human organs can be repaired by new medicine 5.We can learn from the passage that . A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the future B. humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells now C. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer life D. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells |
