In the north of Scotland there is a lake called Loch Ness．It is the biggest 21 in Britain．It is over thirty kilometers 22 and in some places nearly 300 meters deep ．It is cold and dark and not many people went there until after 1930．Then a road was made 23 the lake．Holiday makers began to use the road, and this was when the 24 began．Someone said that he had seen a monster(怪兽) in the lake．He said it was twelve meters long．It had a long 25 and a small head．Then someone else said he had seen 26 ．Others said the same thing and in 1933 a London doctor took a 27 ．It 28 like a monster with a long neck and a thick body but the photo was not too 29 ．The newspapers printed the picture and 30 it the Loch Ness monster, or "Nessie"．
Then the argument(争论) began．31 people, however, were certain there was something living in the lake．Others said there was 32 there．
In 1961, a lot of people joined together to make a real 33 to see and photograph the monster to find 34 there was one! Several times people thought they saw something but after ten years there was 35 no real proof (证据)．
Later underwater television cameras were used, but 36 found any real proof．However, they 37 find something interesting: a huge underwater cave．It was big enough to be 38 of a monster, but of course, this was not a proof．
In 1975, however, some American scientists 39 a search group．They used an underwater camera．It took pictures every seventy seconds．Some of the pictures seemed to show a red-brown creature．Its body was about four meters long 40 had a very ugly head on the end of a four -meter neck．Many people then began to believe in the monster．But even today we can't be certain．

III阅读理解。

（每小题2分，共40分）
阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案。

A
Do you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed．
China has banned (禁止) free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets, and people have to pay for using plastic bags．The rule started on June 1．It came because our country tried to make litter less．Making super-thin (超薄) plastic bags has also been banned．
The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day, and they have caused pollution of the environment ．The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there．So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring their own bags for shopping．
What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Anhui have a good idea．They make their own shopping bags．They use old clothes to make cloth bags (布袋), and
send them to their parents as presents．They also ask their parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones．They think it is their duty to protect the environment．

As young students, you have many dreams．These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class．Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?
Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us th at making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge．You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer．Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream．In fact, everyone can realize his dream．The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is．Don’t let it leave your heart．Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster．You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams．
You must also never give up your dream．There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams．But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself．You need to decide what is the most
important．Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book．
As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little．This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies．
51．The biggest difficulty on the road to your dreams comes from _____________________．A．yourself B．your friends C．your school D．your parents．52．Which of the following isn’t mentioned in this passage?
A．You may think you’re not good at some school subjects．
B．Making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge．
C．You must never give up your dream．
D．Listening to English more can help you realize your dream．
53．If we have dreams in our hearts and work hard, our dreams __________________．A．can’t be realized B．can be very small
C．will come true D．can be very big
54．How do you make your dream come true faster?
A．Remember what your dream is．
B．Don’t let your dream leave your heart．
C．Keep telling yourself what you want every day．
D．A, B and C．
55．The best title (标题)of this passage is _________________________．
A．How to become a writer
B．How to make your dream real
C．A big dream is made up of small dreams
D．Everyone can realize his dream
D
Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes(基因)decide．In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent．If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall you're going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out．
But genes don't decide everything．For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential(潜力)．Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height．
No doubt(怀疑) you're wondering how fast you should grow．It depends．There's no perfect or right answer．Generally speaking, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up)．
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years．Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height you're at now, how you've been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through．Don't be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time．Everyone has a growth spurt（高峰）during puberty．The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys．But it can be earlier or later ——between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys．You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty．
56．The Chinese for the word “puberty” is __________．
A．童年时期B．婴幼儿时期C．习惯养成期D．生长发育期57．If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, ____________．A．you should have enough exercise
B．you can ask doctors for help
C．you should save the environment
D．You can record your growth during puberty
58．This passage is mainly about ____________．
A．how the genes work in your body
B．when is the time you grow fast
C．why you look like your parents
D．how you grow to a certain height
59．After reading this passage, we can explain ___________．
A．how good it is to be a doctor
B．how much sleep time we need
C．why genes can’t decide everything
D．what healthy diet is
60．Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Your height most probably depends on how high your parents are．
B．Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys’．
C．The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed．
D．You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast．
