四. 阅读理解（每小题2分，共30分）
A
When I first went to Britain, a lot of things seemed strange to me. For example, people drove on the left side of the road and many people carried an umbrella all the time. There were also many other things that I found really ▲ .
The first thing I noticed was how polite British people were. When I got on the bus, the driver would greet me; when people got off the bus, they would say “Thank you” to the driver; when I went into a shop, I would be greeted by a smiling salesman who wo uld say, “Can I help you?”
The family I stayed with were very nice, but their house was full of oddities (怪现象). Firstly, there were carpets (地毯) everywhere, even in the bathroom. Also, the bathroom was full of surprises. The first time I tried to wash my hands I burned myself. The cold and hot water came out of different taps (水龙头)! Then, when I tried to dry my hair I couldn't find a socket (插座) for my hairdryer. Maybe that wasn't such a big surprise. More surprising was the fact that British people didn't take their shoes off when they went into a house — can you imagine?
I guess that for British people all of these things are normal. It's only when you visit a foreign country that you realize that what you think is normal is not. Normality depends on where you are. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

( )1. The best word for “▲” is “______”.
A. successful
B. traditional
C. exciting
D. surprising
( )2. How many examples are given to show that British people are polite?
A. 1.
B. 2.
C. 3.
D. 4.
( )3. What happened when the writer first tried to wash his hands in his host family?
A. He burned his hands.
B. He couldn't find the tap.
C. There wasn't any water in the tap.
D. There was only cold water in the tap.
( )4. What does the writer think it is normal to do when entering a house?
A. To take your hat off.
B. To wash your hands.
C. To take your shoes off.
D. To leave your umbrella out.
( )5. How does the writer develop the passage?
A. By telling a short story.
B. By providing some examples.
C. By showing different opinions.
D. By comparing research results.
B
One of the hottest places on the earth is Death Valley. It's a desert valley in North America. The animals in Death Valley don't use technology to keep cool. They have special abilities that help them live there.
The kangaroo rat is one animal that lives in Death Valley. During the day in Death Valley, it gets hotter than 100°F. The kangaroo rat rests all day in a hole in the ground. It covers the hole with grass to keep out the heat. The kangaroo rat comes out at night when it is cooler. This little rat is also very good at conserving (节约) water. It gets all the water it needs from the food it eats. Some kangaroo rats never take a drink of water in their whole lives!
The sun makes the desert sand very hot. Animals, like snakes, get too hot if they lie on the hot sand too long. One snake, called the sidewinder, can solve this problem. When it travels, the sidewinder bends (使弯曲) its body into a “W” shape. Then it uses the bottom (底部的) parts of the “W” like legs and walks sideways (向一侧). That way it touches only a little of the sand at a time, so the hot sand doesn't burn the snake. This strange way of moving is how the sidewinder got its name.
A lot of water in the desert is too salty for most animals to drink. All water has some salt in it. As the desert heat dries up pools of water, the salt is left behind. The remaining water in these pools can be much saltier than the ocean. One kind of fish, the desert pupfish, can live in these salty pools because it can drink the salt water.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

( )6. Why does the kangaroo rat cover its hole with grass?
A. To make it safe to live in.
B. To make it look beautiful.
C. To keep it cool.
D. To keep it dry.
( )7. The kangaroo rat gets all the water it needs from ______.
A. rain
B. rivers
C. its food
D. tree leaves
( )8. The sidewinder is named after ______.
A. a place
B. a person
C. the food it eats
D. its way of moving
( )9. The desert pupfish can ______.
A. live in salt water
B. use water wisely
C. live without drinking water
D. turn dirty water into clean water
( )10. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. How animals live in Death Valley.
B. How Death Valley got its name.
C. The weather in Death Valley.
D. A trip to Death Valley.

Reporter: Steven, we've been talking about Costa Rica and how beautiful it is and how important it is to protect it. (11)__________
