AAfter Mom died, I began visiting Dad every morning before I went to work. He was weakand moved slowly, but he always had a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice on the kitchen table for me, along with an unsigned note reading, “Drink your juice.” Such a note, I knew, was as far as Dad had ever been able to go in expressing his love. In fact, I remember, as a kid I had questioned Mom, “Why doesn’t Dad love me?” Mom frowned, “Who said he doesn’t love you?” “Well, he never tells me,” I complained. “He never tells me either,” she said, smiling. “But look how hard he works to take care of us, to buy us food and clothes, and to pay for thi s house. That’s how your father tells us he loves us.”I nodded slowly. I understood in my head, but not in my heart. I still wanted my father to put his arms around me and tell me he loved me. Dad owned and operated a small scrap (片)metal business, and after school I often hung around while he worked. Dad handfed scrap steel into a device that chopped (剁碎) it as cleanly as a butcher chops a rack of ribs. The machine looked like a giant pair of scissors, with blades thicker than my father’s body. If he didn’t feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. “Why don’t you hire someone to do that for you?” Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. “Why don’t you hire a cook?” Dad asked , giving her one of his rare smiles.Many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me, I walked over, hugged him and said, “I love you, Dad.” From then on I did this every morning. My father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when I gave them.21.The author’s father always prepared a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice for himbecause ______.A. that was the author’s favoriteB. he was sure the author would be thirstyC. the author was always complainingD. that was a gesture of love22.The author’s father didn’t hire a helper because ______.A. his job was too dangerousB. his job required high skillsC. he wanted to save moneyD. he was not good at communicating with others.23.What would be the best title for the passage?A. I Just Couldn’t Understand my FatherB. My Father Never Loved MeC. Silent Fatherly LoveD. My Hard-working FatherBMany of the Earth's creatures die because of humans' choices. These choices have nothing to do with food or shelter or anything else that helps humans survive. What kills millions of animals all over the world is that humans want to make money by doing so.People use parts of animals for everything from hats to handbags, from jewelry to ashtrays and to make powders that supposedly improve a person's life. Deciding that a species is endangered and protecting it by law are not always enough. People who kill wildlife illegally rarely get caught.During the late 1980s, saving elephants became a popular cause. Wildlife protection groups made sure everyone saw pictures or films of elephants with their faces cut off for their ivory. These groups also proved that certain populations of elephants were decreasing As a result, most people stopped buying objects made of ivory. Laws against poaching (偷猎) were made stronger. Many countries made importing ivory illegal. Killing elephants for their Ivory became more risky and less profitable (有利可图的).However, concern for certain species will become weak after a while. In the late 1970s, people protested (抗议) against the killing of seal babies. Everyone was shocked to see young seals being killed in their icy habitat. The cruel activity stopped. But ten years later, the number of seal babies killed was higher than ever.Other animal protection movements have come and gone, such as saving the whales and protecting dolphins. The whale population appears to have increased for now. And the laws are finally changed in America to protect the dolphins that swim with tuna fish in parts of the Pacific OceanIn the years to come, people's attention will probably turn to some other endangered species. Plenty of them urgently need attention. During this time, will the elephants be forgotten?24.What leads to the disappearance of millions of wild animals?A. The growing human populationB. Humans’ hope for making a fortuneC. Humans’ too much need for wild foodD. Not having enough laws on wildlife protection25.What can you infer from the text about what happened in the late 1980s?A. Wildlife protection groups did make great effortsB. Importing ivory in all countries is illegal.C. Those who killed elephants all got caughtD. Hunting was completely not allowed26.Why are seal babies mentioned in Paragraph 4?A. To show the effort to protect seal babiesB. To show an increasing number of seal babies.C. To show the decrease of worry about certain speciesD. To show people’s protest against the kil ling of seal babies27.What does the author mean by using the underlined sentence?A. Humans should choose some rare animals to protectB. Attention must be paid to saving some endangered wildlifeC. Success has been achieved in quite a few cases of wildlife protectionD. Concern and movements for animal protection should be always keptCNature has created many ways to protect creatures’ eyes. The most common protection is the eyelid —a fold of skin that closes over the eye, protecting it from damage. Eyelashes are useful for keeping out dust and other things, and tears wash away any small pieces that get through the other defenses.Some creatures, including most birds, have three eyelids. The upper and lower lids act like human lids and keep out little tree branches, dirt, and sand. The third eyelid, however, is a semitransparent tissue(半透明组织) that crosses over the eye from the inside corner to the outside corner. Because of this protective membrane(隔膜), birds seldom have to blink. They close their eyes only when they go to sleep. For ducks, this third eyelid serves as an underwater diving mask that helps the ducks find food.Most fish and snakes have no eyelids at all. Instead, a hard glassy covering protects their eyes. For fish, water constantly sweep s away dirt from the covering. And a snake’s eyesight is usually so bad that a little dirt obscuring its vision does not disturb it greatly.Eyelashes defend(保护) the eye by shading it from strong light. They also act like mini brushes to remove dust. Camels have eyelashes that are four inches long to protect theireyes from wind-blown sand in the desert.28.Birds don’t often blink because _______.A. they don’t need to sleep a lotB. their upper and lower lids can keep away little branches, dirt and sandC. eyelashes act like mini brushes to remove dustD. they have a kind of tissue to cover the eyes29.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage?A. Ducks don’t close their eyes even when they go to sleep.B. A little dirt doesn’t disturb a snake’s eyesight badly because its eyesight isvery good.C. Eyelashes help to keep away small pieces that get through the other two defenses.D. Some creatures have a hard covering to protect their eyes instead of eyelids.30.It can be concluded from the passage that ________.A. eyelids are more important in protecting creatures’ eyes than other devicesB. creatures develop different modes of eye protection in different environmentsC. birds often close their eyes in the daytimeD. a fish’s eyelid is a har d glassy covering.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
