If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play it until their hands were burnt away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear did not, a child would burn itself again and again, because fear would not warn the child to keep away from the fire that had burnt him or her before. A really fearless soldier--and some do exist--is not a good soldier because he is soon killed and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.In o ur first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly useD．If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not absolutely safe: a plane may crash on your house, or ants may eat away some of the wood in your roof, and she latter may fall on you, or you may get cancer!The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers；then you have to decide what action to take.In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you, fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is OK.In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you cannot prevent a plane crashing into your house, and you may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no plants. In this case, fear has given you its warning ；you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it.44．Children would play with fire until their hands were burnt away ifA．they were given no warning beforehandB．they didn’t have any sense of pain at allC．they had never burnt themselvesD．they felt afraid of the fire45．A really fearless soldier .A．is of a little use to his army B．is not afraid of battles at all C．is nothing but a dead soldier D．is easy to get killed in a battle 46．People sometimes succeed in timely avoiding danger because .A．they are warned of the danger and take quick actionB．they are quick both in mind and in actionC．they are calm in face of dangerD．they have gained much experience47．It is implied but not stated that .A．fear is always something helpfulB．too much fear is harmfulC．fear should be used as a servant and guideD．fear is something strange and particularDDoctors’ moonlighting is becoming popular in hospitals around China. It has not only raiseda lot of heated discussions in the media, but also caught the attention of the central governmentin Beijing.On December 26, a spokesman of the Ministry of Health stressed that the ministry was firmlyagainst doctors’ moonlighting, while strict regulations should be applied to doctors takingpart-time jobs, the Xinhua News Agency reported.Last year, the Ministry sent out a notice to a variety of health organizations to speed upthe reform of their personnel （人事） system. According to the notice, medical organizationscan hire medical experts as part-time doctors but such activities should take place under thehospital’s management and regulations（规定）.As for moonlighting--meaning that the doctor provides medical service without the permissionof the original hospital--such activity goes against China’s Practicing Doctor Law, Xinhua reported.In China, doctors used to be controlled by hospitals and they could work for only one hospital. However, as China’s medical personnel system reform developed, it has been recognized thatmedical human resources, just like human resources in other areas, should be shared by the wholesociety. But on the other hand, doctors’ taking part-time jobs s hould follow the relative regulations applied in the medical field.First of all, they should follow relative government laws and regulations. They should alsofollow the rules and regulations set by the medical organizations they work for. In addition,they should pay taxes for their income from the part-time jobs. What matters most is that theyshould first finish their regular jobs as required and be responsible for patients to ensurequalified and safe medical treatment.48．What is the greatest difference between moonlighting and taking part-time jobs?A．Doctors can earn more money by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs.B．Doctors pay fewer taxes for the money made by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs.C．Taking part-time jobs is permitted by hospitals while moonlighting is-against the present regulations.D．Doctor’s part-time jobs, instead of moonlighting, are encouraged by health organizations.49．From this passage we know that doctors are allowed to nowadays.A．only work for one hospital B．work for more than one hospitalC．work any time when they are free D．be out of control of hospitals50．The passage is taken most probably from .A．a notice sent out by the Ministry of HealthB．regulations made by health organazationsC．China’s Practicing Doctor LawD．a magazine or a newspaper51．According to the passage, we have got to know that .A．all doctors around China prefer moonlighting to part-time jobsB．moonlighting has been permitted by China’s practicing Doctor LawC．taxes should be paid for the money doctors get from their part-time jobsD．strict management policies have been adopted to direct the moonlightingEThe cane toad（癞蛤蟆）was introduced to northern Queensland 70 years ago to control sugarcane beetles（甘蔗害虫）.But the toads failed in that duty and spread across Queensland and into neighboring northern areas.Now it calmly invades the states of Western Australia and New South Wales（NSW）. NSW wildlife experts fear the amphibians —— which have poisonous backs that kill hungry predators（食肉动物）—— will have a terrible effect on native animals.Those fears may be about to be realized. Australia’s Common wealth Science and Industry Research Organization（CSIRO）, predicts that a rise in average temperatures will make NSW an ideal living place for the cane toads.Tony Robinson, head of CSIRO, said, “Climate change is increasing the amount of suitable living place for the cane toads. With climate change, the cane toads might go down as far as Sydney and some areas of Western Australia,”Robinson also noted, “More southerly cities, such as Melbourne and Adelaide, would likely remain too cold and dry to ever suit the toads, but Perth could expect cane toads in five years’ time. Sydney could see their arrival in the next 20 years. ”The cane toads already cover at least half of Queensland and most of the northern country.A new virus was tried in the 1990s but was given up after it was found to also kill native frogs. Scientists believe a national approach is needed.The main threat the toads cause to species such as dingoes, and crocodiles is the poison contained in their bodies. The poison sprays out when the toads are threatened or handled roughly and it is made up of 14 different chemicals.Cane toads also compete, and usually win the hunt for food and living space.52．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Poison Toads Is Covering AustraliaB．Ways to Keep the Toads under ControlC．The Main Threat the Cane Toads CauseD．Climate Favours the Spread of Cane Toads53．It can be learnt from the passage that .A．the cane toads are strong enough to kill dingoes or even crocodilesB．the cane toads were taken to Australia 70 years ago to kill pestsC．the cane toads move westward and northward because there is plenty of foodD．with 14 different kinds of poisons in its body, a cane toad usually wins the hunt for food54．The underlined words “the amphibians” in the second paragraph refer to .A．hungry predators B．sugarcane beetlesC．the cane toads D．dingoes55．According to the passage, the cane toad is the least likely to live in .A．Queensland B．PerthC．Sydney D．Melbourn e参考答案36—40 ABDBC 41—45BBCBD 46—50 ABCBD 51—55 CABCD。
