三、阅读理解
1.When Iain Douglas-Hamilton first started studying elephants in Africa,he had to invent ways of tracking the big animals. Over the course of 40 years in the field, the zoologist learned how to fly airplanes and use some high-tech means to follow their movements. He also learned how to get out of the way fast. "I learned how to climb trees very quickly," says Dr. Douglas-Hamilton, winner of the 2010 Indianapolis Prize.
As co-founder of Save the Elephants, he has also learned to be an activist, author, and politician. When Douglas-Hamilton left Tanzania, in East Africa, in 1970 to study at Oxford University in Britain, he left behind "an elephants' paradise (乐园)."But when he returned in 1972, the country's national parks looked more like a war zone. Douglas-Hamilton often found more dead elephants than living ones.
Dr. Douglas-Hamilton now lives in Kenya with his wife, Oria, who co-founded Save the Elephants. Together they have written two books, "Battle for the Elephants" and " Among the Elephants".
During the height of the ivory poaching (偷猎),Douglas-Hamilton flew in small planes, helping bring back elephants in Uganda from the edge of extinction. He's been repeatedly shot at and has survived plane crashes, floods and diseases. He fought for years for a worldwide ban on ivory sales, which finally took effect in 1989. Douglas-Hamilton pioneered the scientific study of elephant social behavior. Among his discoveries: Elephants have a society controlled by female elephants and travel in families. In 2009， he worked to save a rare group of desert elephants in Mali from the worst dry weather in Mali's history. There have been other successes, particularly in East and Southern Africa. Douglas—Hamilton has proposed (提议) the idea of a mobile national park, where the protected land would follow elephants as they travel. No country has yet accepted it.
Even after decades of research, Douglas-Hamilton still enjoys the company of elephants. "I love to sit with them and be with them, "he says. "I have the greatest joy just to be with elephants at peace."
【1】What is the passage mainly about?
A．Douglas-Hamilton's winning the Indianapolis Prize.
B．Douglas-Hamilton's devotion to protecting elephants.
C．Douglas-Hamilton's research into African animals.
D．Douglas-Hamilton's fight for a mobile national park.
【2】Before Iain Douglas-Hamilton left Tanzania for Oxford University ，________.
A．ivory poaching was common
B．elephants were well protected
C．elephants often died strangely
D．the ban on ivory sales had been introduced
【3】Douglas-Hamilton did the following to protect elephants EXCEPT________.
A．building mobile national parks
B．saving desert elephants in Mali
C．founding Save the Elephants
D．demanding a ban on ivory sales
【4】The underlined word "it" in Para. 5 refers to the________.
A．national park B．protected land
C．idea D．elephant
2.When I paid for the bicycle repair, the repairman told me, “ No change, Professor Pan. We’re friends.”
“I’d rather pay,” I replied. “If it’s free, I can’t afford it.”
Chinese often refuse payment for professional services, insisting, “We’re friends now!” But then they show up later to ask me to tutor them in English, or get them into an American university, and I wish I’d have just paid the 30 yuan I owed them in the first place.
According to the Americans, “There’s no free lunch,” meaning that there’s a price for everything, and I’m always looking around to figure out what this means.
Many of our neighbors have given us fruit or flowers or costly teas, never asking anything in return. For years, a bicycle repairman has repeatedly refused to let me pay him. “Wait until you have something major to fix!” he insists.
Chinese generosity is a real education for Americans like me, who would rather avoid social entanglements (纠纷) and just hand over the money. But cash can’t make up for the greatest gift – friendship.
When an American saw some of my friends sitting on bamboo stools under the trees, sipping tea, he sai d, “They must have nothing better to do.” “Actually,” I said, “they are professors, with plenty to do. But probably you’re
right in saying that, at this moment, they have nothing better to do. And neither do I.”
And I joined the group. We chatted about tea and Chinese cooking and how much my boys have grown since we arrived. One man said, “They were pocket-sized when you came here. Now they’re taller than you. How time flies.”
How life flies. And Chinese are smart enough to share what they know they cannot keep. They freely give of their time, never too busy to help a friend. And they are teaching me, slowly, to both give and receive. So the next
time someone says, “No charge. We’re friends.” I will thank them heartily. But if they show up later asking me to tutor them in English, I’ll make sure they tutor my son in Chinese as well, because there’s still no free lunch.
【1】Why did the author insist on paying the repairman while he was offered free repairs?
A．Because he was an upright man.
B．Because he didn’t know the repairman.
C．Because he thought it natural to pay for other’s service.
D．Because he didn’t want to help others in return.
【2】Generally, the author thinks that ___________ .
A．Chinese are generous and always ready to help their friends
B．Chinese are good at exchange of equal values
C．Chinese are free enough to drink and chat with their friends
D．Chinese are helpful but don’t treasure time
【3】The best title for the passage should be “_________ ”.
A．Still No Free Lunch B．A Good Lesson from Chinese
C．True Help or Not D．Learn to Both Give and Receive
【4】Which of the following is TRUE?
A．All the Chinese help foreigners on purpose.
B．Chinese like to ask for help.
C．The author thinks little of the Chinese way of life.
D．The author thinks that Chinese are wise enough to enjoy the limited life.
3.“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.”
You probably heard those lines in grammar school, but do you really agree that harsh(严厉的) or negative words do not harm us? Words have power. Surely we all have had our feelings hurt by something someone said.
We may not say words to hurt others, but the way we interpret (解释) them and how we say them may cause great harm. Here’s an example
An ancient king dreamed all his teeth had fallen out. He sent for a wise man to explain his dream to him the dream means that all your relatives will die and you will be left alone! The king was very angry and threw the interpreter into prison. He then sent for another interpreter who said, “Congratulations! King! You will live many more years. In fact, you will survive all your relatives. Long Live the King!”
Both interpreters gave the same interpretation, but there was a huge difference in the way they said it.
Our speech must be understood by those who hear our words, but the way we say things and the intention behind them have as much power as the words themselves. Words can cause anger or appreciation. Which would you rather receive?
People who say harsh and negative things may not mean to harm, but have you ever known anyone who is a naysayer? They often look at the dark sides of things. They always see the glass as half empty rather than half full. How do you feel when you are around this type of person? Remember words have power. Use them wisely. 【1】The author mentions the story of the ancient king to show that _____.
A．one dream sometimes has different explanations
B．good words can bring good luck to people
C．people should be careful when talking to a king
D．different ways of saying things have different effects
【2】The underlined word “naysayer” in the last paragraph refers to a person who always _____.
A．has a negative attitude
B．likes to be praised
C．talks big
D．likes to repeat what others say
【3】According to the text, how can people understand each other better?
A．By sharing different life experiences
B．By accepting different habits.
C．By properly using words
D．By recognizing different values.
【4】The passage mainly talks about ______.
A．the power of words
B．the cruelty of the king
C．how to understand others
D．how to build good relationships
4.Neither television nor radio nor magazines nor books nor any other medium can begin to match newspapers for depth and breadth of coverage (新闻报道). In fact, all these media themselves depend on newspapers to bring them information that they then process and distribute as their own brand of news.
Now many newspapers are locked in a struggle for survival. If they lose—which is by no means impossible—we all lose.
The great task for editors and publishers is to respond to the competitive challenge caused by online news, and
at the same time use their own online news to increase their profits (利润). As yet，they haven't figured out a smooth and sure way to do that.
So they cut some more to get profit. The cuts in size that they are making are in some cases risky and in others without considering the results. With every cut, publishers tirelessly argue that readers won't even know the difference. The trouble is that by the time customers do notice that they are getting less for their money，it will be too late—too late to notice the reduction in the number of readers.
The other big cuts, of course, are in staff (员工). The victims would be the oldest and most experienced workers because they are the highest paid.While there is plenty of tired deadwood among them，there is also a lot of talent.
When experienced staff leave in large numbers—as they often do now—the newspaper loses great professional memory. But the real loser is the readers, who are suddenly robbed of the insights (见识) that only the experienced reporters can bring.
As for the future, there is at least one big, bright sign：intelligent young people will continue to flood into journalism in urgent search of jobs, despite its high demands and modest (不太高的) pay.
【1】The underlined word “deadwood” in Paragraph 5 may refer to “”．
A．the staff who are going to retire
B．people who are no longer useful or needed
C．workers who are experienced
D．reporters who are tired of covering events
【2】According to the passage，which of the following can best describe the author's attitude towards the ways the editors and publishers have adopted to get profit?
A．The author has no objection.
B．The author is against them.
C．The author has not shown it clearly.
D．The author regards them reasonable.
【3】The author seems to agree with the view that .
A．experienced workers are the last to be laid off
B．journalism is a job offering highest pay for high demands
C．the challenge of newspapers is that there are not enough intelligent young people
D．it is possible that newspapers may not survive in the end
【4】It is stressed by the passage that the most important quality for a journalist is .
A．patience B．selfishness C．insights D．sensitivity

三、阅读理解
1.When Iain Douglas-Hamilton first started studying elephants in Africa,he had to invent ways of tracking the big animals. Over the course of 40 years in the field, the zoologist learned how to fly airplanes and use some high-tech means to follow their movements. He also learned how to get out of the way fast. "I learned how to climb trees very quickly," says Dr. Douglas-Hamilton, winner of the 2010 Indianapolis Prize.
As co-founder of Save the Elephants, he has also learned to be an activist, author, and politician. When
Douglas-Hamilton left Tanzania, in East Africa, in 1970 to study at Oxford University in Britain, he left behind "an elephants' paradise (乐园)."But when he returned in 1972, the country's national parks looked more like a war zone. Douglas-Hamilton often found more dead elephants than living ones.
Dr. Douglas-Hamilton now lives in Kenya with his wife, Oria, who co-founded Save the Elephants. Together they have written two books, "Battle for the Elephants" and " Among the Elephants".
During the height of the ivory poaching (偷猎),Douglas-Hamilton flew in small planes, helping bring back elephants in Uganda from the edge of extinction. He's been repeatedly shot at and has survived plane crashes, floods and diseases. He fought for years for a worldwide ban on ivory sales, which finally took effect in 1989. Douglas-Hamilton pioneered the scientific study of elephant social behavior. Among his discoveries: Elephants have a society controlled by female elephants and travel in families. In 2009， he worked to save a rare group of desert elephants in Mali from the worst dry weather in Mali's history. There have been other successes, particularly in East and Southern Africa. Douglas—Hamilton has proposed (提议) the idea of a mobile national park, where the protected land would follow elephants as they travel. No country has yet accepted it.
Even after decades of research, Douglas-Hamilton still enjoys the company of elephants. "I love to sit with them and be with them, "he says. "I have the greatest joy just to be with elephants at peace."
