| A soldier named John Blanchard struck up(建立)a pen pal friendship with a woman, Sally Maynell, who he had never met in the months before World War II. When the fighting began, their correspondence still continued. Over the next year or so the two got to know each other through their letters. Even so, when Blanchard asked for a photograph, the woman refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn't matter what she looked like. When the day finally came for him to return from Europe, they scheduled their first meeting - 7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New York. "You'll recognise me," she wrote, "by the red rose I'll be wearing on my suit." At the station a beautiful young woman approached him. She was wearing a green suit and was everything that he hoped Miss Maynell would be. But there was no red rose. There was another woman. She was well past 40 and had her hair tucked(塞)under a worn hat. She was more than plump, her fat feet thrust(挤)into shoes. Her pale face was gentle and her gray eyes had a warm twinkle(闪光). On her coat, there was a red rose. He did not hesitate. His fingers gripped the small worn copy of the book that was to identify him to her. "This will not be love, but it will be something precious, something perhaps even better than love, a feeling for which I have been and must ever be grateful." he thought. " I'm John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me. May I take you to dinner?" he asked. The woman's face broadened into a smile. "I don't know what this is about, son." she answered, "But the young lady in the green suit who just went by begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should go and tell you that she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. She said it was a kind of test!" |

| A. disappointed B. excited C. indifferent D. expectant |

| In 1952, on the island of Koshima(越谷,日本某地), scientists were providing monkeys with sweet potatoes dropped in the sand. The monkey liked the taste of the raw sweet potatoes, but they found the dirt unpleasant. An 18-month-old female named Imo found she could solve the problem by washing the potatoes in a nearby stream. She taught this trick to her mother. Her playmates also learned this new way and they taught their mothers too. This cultural innovation was gradually picked up by various monkeys before the eyes of the scientists. Between 1952 and 1958 all the young monkeys learned to wash the sandy sweet potatoes to make them more palatable(美味的). Only the adults who imitated their children learned this social improvement. Other adults kept eating the dirty sweet potatoes. Let us suppose that when the sun rose one morning there were 99 monkeys on Koshima Island who had learned to wash their sweet potatoes. Let's further suppose that later that morning, the hundredth monkey learned to wash potatoes. Then it happened. By that evening almost everyone in the tribe was washing sweet potatoes before eating them. The added energy of this hundredth monkey somehow created an ideological breakthrough! But notice: A most surprising thing observed by these scientists was that the habit of washing sweet potatoes then jumped over the sea colonies of monkeys on other islands and the mainland troop of monkeys at Takasakiyama(高岐山)began washing their sweet potatoes. Thus, when a certain critical(关键的)number achieves an awareness, this new awareness may be communicated from mind to mind. Although the exact number may vary, this Hundredth Monkey Phenomenon(现象)means that when only a limited number of people know of a new way, it may remain the conscious property(个人意识性属性)of those people. But there is a point at which if only one more person comes to a new awareness, a field(能量场)is strengthened so that this awareness is picked up by almost everyone! Your awareness is needed. You may be the "hundredth monkey" |
| 1. The passage may be adapted from __________. |
|
A. a text book |
| 2. It was __________ that found the way to make potatoes clean by washing them. |
| A. a young clever female monkey B. an old experienced monkey C. an 18-year-old mother monkey D. a monkey finding a potato in the river |
| 3. The last sentence of Paragraph 1 "This cultural innovation was gradually picked up by various monkeys before the eyes of the scientists." implies that __________. |
| A. monkeys have learnt the new way unconsciously(下意识地) B. monkeys like picking up things on the ground C. it is very difficult for monkey to learn a new way D. monkeys learnt the new way from scientists |
| 4. According to the writer, the hundredth monkey __________. |
| A. is the last one to learn to wash potatoes B. is the most stupid in learning C. makes a great difference in spreading a new way D. plays a small part in the breakthrough |
| 5. The write wrote the last paragraph __________. |
| A. to draw a conclusion that one day monkeys will become human beings B. to predict that one day every reader can turn into the hundredth monkey C. to encourage people to learn more knowledge D. to emphasize the importance of each person's contribution to spreading a new method |

| Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road. "Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads," the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U. S. today. The main reason? Road kill. "Eco-passages" may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. "These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents," said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society. But do animals actually use the eco-passages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage. Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders(火蜥蜴)and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses. The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animals overpass! |
| 1. The writer uses the example of "ocelots" to show that __________. |

| 2. From the news story, we know an eco-passage is __________. |
| A. an underground path for cars B. a fence built for the safety of the area C. a pass for animals to cross the road D. a bridge for animals to get over a river |
| 3. When the writer says that animals seem "to be catching on", he means __________. |
| A. animals begin to realize the dangers on the road B. animals begin to learn to use eco-passages C. animals are crossing the road in groups D. animals are becoming safer |
| 4. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because __________. |
| A. wild animals may cause danger B. wild animals may jam the road C. they may kill the animals D. they may see wild animals on eco-passages |
| 5. This passage is written to __________. |
| A. protect the endangered animals B. call on drivers to be careful when seeing animals on roads C. introduce a new way to help protect animals D. tell us the main reason for the killing of animals in the US |

| Our boat floated on between walls of forest. It was too thick to allow us a view of the land we were passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through chains of hills which crossed the jungle plains. Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed: where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us form going ashore. In any case, what would we have gained by landing? The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance slowly, cutting one's way with knives the whole way. So we stayed in the boat, hoping that when we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization. As for water, there was a choice. We could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst. We drank the water. Men who have just escaped from what appeared to be certain death lost all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result. One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us. We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time: we might not be so lucky as to escape in a stolen boat again. |

| A. they were lost without a map B. landing was of little help C. the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river D. they were afraid of the snakes and other dangerous animals in the jungle |
| 4. Which of the following statements is true? |
| A. They stole a boat and tried to escape from an uncivilized world. B. They ware taken prisoners for a second time. C. They cut their way in the jungle with knives the whole way. D. They were careful so none of them suffered from any illness. |
