IX. Reading comprehension （阅读理解） (共50分)
A. Choose the best answer.（根据短文内容, 选择最恰当的答案）: (共12分)
I recently spent two years in the Arctic(北极) filming the series(连续剧) Blue Planet. I love being in an environment that hasn’t changed for 20,000 years. Of course it’s freezing, but it must be a healthy place because you never catch a cold.
When I am filming, I like to really feel how lonely the environment is. Filming underwater involves cutting through thick ice. When diving in, you should tie to a line. The person at the other end of the line has to pull you out fast if necessary.
At first I was a research diver for the British Antarctic Survey Project, but for me, science isn’t exciting enough. I’d always enjoy photography, and whenever camera teams passed through, they encouraged me to watch and learn. I was then able to move into filming in 1985 and have concentrated on Arctic and Antarctic wildlife ever since.
I prefer to be face to face with the animals I’m filming. I haven’t been in the water with killer whales yet, but I plan to . Of course, it’s dangerous if you choose the wrong moment. They’re big animals and can move fast, so I’d be stupid to film them when they are searching for food!
I have never had problems with polar bears, although once I was frightened when one tried to get into my tent. Polar bears are bold, clever and dangerous. But I made the bear understand I wouldn’t hurt it.
Now I come back home, I work in the mornings and spend the afternoons swimming to keep fit. Now I’m fifty, and filming is harder. The challenge（挑战）for me is to go on with the high-quality work.
( )74. The writer loved the Arctic because ______________.
A) it’s freezing B) it’s changeable
C) it’s a healthy place D) it’s an exciting place
( )75. From the third paragraph we know that at first the writer was a______________.
A) research diver B) scientist C) a photographer
D) film-maker
( )76. The underlined phrase “the wrong moment” refers to the time when the whales are _____________.
A) hungry B) meeting strangers
C) having a rest D) moving fast
( )77. Talking about his experience with a polar bear, the writer said_____________.
A) the animal was much more afraid than he was
B) he felt excited, having no idea that the bear might attack him
C) the bear seemed to know that he wasn’t dangerous
D) he realized he was wrong to trust polar bears
( )78. What does the writer think of his job as a cameraman now?
A) It’s dangerous. B) It’s boring.
C) I t’s for young people. D) It’s difficult.

D) the beautiful scenery of the Arctic
B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage. (选择最恰当的单词或词组完成短文): (共12分)
I was cute, active, happy…until that day when I was 15 months old. I had a bad fall. I landed
on a glass rabbit and it cut my eye badly enough to blind it. The doctor said if the eye was taken out, my face would become out of ___80__, so my scarred（有疤痕的），blind and grey eye lived on with me.
People often asked uncomfortable questions about my eye or ___81___ played jokes on me. When the kids played games, I was always the “bad guy”. I grew up imagining that everyone looked down on me.
Yet every time Mom noticed I was unhappy, she would say to me, “Hold your head up high and face the world.” It helped me move on in life.
As a child, I told myself, “Be careful or I will fall down or knock into something because I am not looking.” As a teenager, I always looked down to hide my shame, but I found that people liked me when sometimes I held my head up high.
In high school I was even made monitor, but outside I still felt like a freak（怪物）. All I really wanted was to look like ___82___. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mom and she would look at me with loving eyes and say, “Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the love that is inside.” That is ___83___ Mom taught me pride.
Mom’s love and encouragement gave me the confidence to remove my own doubt. ___84___ I was able to look people in the eye. I learned not only to appreciate(欣赏) myself but to have love for others.
“Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home. Each of my children has felt its ___85___. The gift she gave me lives on in my children.

When I came out of my office, it was dark. In order to get home as soon as possible, I took a taxi. The car was flying along the road, but later it was in a traffic jam in darkness.

“Nine o’clock. I’ll go home after this t___87_____.”
“Then when do you come out in the mornings?” I threw out another question.
“Nine o’clock, too. And I go home for lunch and dinner, just as if I worked at an office.”His words s____88____ me, because every time I ride in a taxi, what I hear from the driver is only complaints. They complain that they have to work from morning till night, that it is hard to earn money, that they are bullied(欺负)by the police, or that the leaders enjoy the fruits of their work. It s___89__ they are not satisfied with everything. But this driver told me, “I find it tiring to be a section chief as I was before. I don’t like management work. I like driving, just out of pleasure. It’s lucky that I s___90____ drive without a passenger. So I can earn three or four thousand yuan a month easily. Any trick? Yes, I never follow an e___91____taxi. If it goes southward, I go northward. If it goes along the highway, I turn into a narrow street. In this way I always get customers.”
His words showed his satisfaction with his life and the pride he took in his job. Such feelings are so rare among people nowadays just as oxygen in high mountains. How many people nowadays can show high ideals(理想；完美) by s____92____ living and go with a calm mind? I couldn’t help feeling moved when I found such a state of mind in a stranger on a cold winter night.
D. Answer the questions. (根据短文内容回答下列问题): (共12分)
A clever pigeon（鸽子）just wants a chance to drive a bus or eat a hot dog. Will he succeed?
A young girl loses her favourite toy in the park. What will she do? These are just a few of the questions raised in the books of award-winning author Mo Willems.
His picture book Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! has been named a Caldecott Honor book. Willems has also written The Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog! and many other books.
Before writing books, Willems spent many years writing for television. He is now the head writer for Cartoon Networ k’s program: Kids Next Door. The reporter asked Willems about his writing.
Reporter: What makes the great picture book attract readers of all ages?
Willems: The difference between adults and kids is that kids are shorter. They are exactly the same.
They don’t like being talked down to. And they like funny stories. I’m not writing things
that I think kids will like. I’m writing things just I like and I believe that’s good enough for kids and for everyone else to enjoy.
Reporter: What a strong character! How confident you are! What five words would you use to describe yourself?
Willems: I can do it in three: I like fun.
Reporter: Do you have any words of wisdom for kids?

don’t have super powers but you can do some things. If you work hard enough, and figure
out what those things are, you can do them.
Reporter: Actually, you share a common journey through life with readers in your books. Your humor can be a good way of developing better relationships among various people. Thank
