I stood in the doorway, watching my older brother carefully putting clothes into his bag. I coughed uneasily. Finally 41 that I was there, Rocky turned toward me with a sad smile.

A)阅读下列短文,根据短文内容从每题所给的ABCD四个选项中选出最佳答案。(每小题2分)

A

Killer bees started in Brazil in 1957. A scientist in Sao Paulo wanted bees to make more honey (蜂蜜). So he put forty-six African bees with some Brazilian bees. The bees bred (繁殖)and made a new kind of bees. But the new bees were a mistake. They didn”t want to make more honey. They wanted to attack. Then, by accident, twenty-six African bees escaped and bred with the Brazilian bees outside.

Scientists could not control (控制)the problem. The bees increased fast. They went from Brazil to Venezuela. Then they went to Central America. Now they are in North America. They travel about 390 miles a year. Each group of bees grows four times a year. This means one million new groups every five years.

Why are people afraid of killer bees? People are afraid for two reasons. First, the bees sting (叮)many more times than usual bees. Killer bees can sting sixty times a minute non-stop for two hours. Second, killer bees attack in groups. Four hundred bee sting can kill a person.

Already several hundred people are dead. Now killer bees are in Texas. In a few years they will reach all over the United States. People can do nothing but wait.

Most children with healthy appetites (食欲)are ready to eat almost anything that is offered to them. A child often likes food unless it is badly cooked. The way a meal is cooked and served is most important and an attractively served meal will often improve a child”s appetite. Never ask a child whether he likes or dislikes a food and never discuss likes and dislikes in front of him or allow anybody else to do so. If the father says that he hates fat meat or the mother refuses some vegetables in the child”s hearing, he may copy this action. Parents should agree to the fact that he likes everything and he probably will. Nothing healthy should be go out of from the meal because of a supposed dislike. At meal times it is a good idea to give a child a small part and let him come back for a second helping rather than give him as much as he may eat all at once. Do not talk too much to the child during meal times, but let him get on with his food; and do not allow him to leave the table at once after a meal, or he will soon learn to eat his food hurriedly so he can hurry back to the toys in his room. On no condition (任何情况下都不)must a child be coaxed(哄骗)or made to eat.

63. A child with a healthy appetite will eat _______ if it is not badly cooked.

A. only a little of the food

B. all the food

C. some of the food

D. almost all the food

64. _______ can make a child like eating more.

A. Offering as much as possible

B. Playing with toys

C. The way a meal is well cooked and served

D. The way parents eat

65. Which of the following is a good action before a child during meal times?

A. To discuss the food a parent dislikes.

B. To ask a child what food he likes or dislikes.

C. Never to discuss likes or dislikes of food.

D. To talk a lot to the child.

66. If a child is allowed to leave the table at once after a meal, he will _______.

A Japanese toy maker says that they”ve developed a gadget (小器具)that translates dog barks(吠)into human languages and plan to begin selling the gadgets-under the name of Bowlingual-in the US pet stores and present shops this summer.

People laughed when the Japanese toy maker Takara company made the world”s first dog-human translation machine last year. But about 300,000 of them have been sold since it was on sale in Japan last year. Far bigger sales will be expected once an English language translation machine for dogs comes to America in August. The United States is home to about 67 million dogs, more than six times the number in Japan.

We know that the Americans love their dogs so much, so we don”t think they”ll mind spending $ 120 on this gadget, the Takara marketing manager said before the journalists at a meeting in Atlanta. Bowlingual, one of US Time magazine”s coolest inventions of 2002, has two parts. A microphone is tied to the dog”s collar(项圈)and sends out sound information to the gadget held by the owner. Then the translation is done in the gadget by a database(数据库)with every kind of barks. Those barks show six feelingshappiness, sadness, disappointment, anger, declaration and desire. Each of the feelings is then translated into words like Let”s play. ”“Look at me! or Spend more time with me.

Takara says it has spent millions of dollars developing the gadget. One thing that seems certain is that the markets for animal translation machine will probably be a dog”s world since Takara has no plans to develop such a gadget for cats. They are too unpredictable(反复无常), the marketing manager said.

67. The first three paragraphs of the passage mainly tell us that Bowlingual ______.

A. was invented in Japan

B. has developed quickly

C. will be sold in America

D. sells well for its price

68. The underlined word theyin the last sentence refers to _____.

A. markets

B. dogs

C. plans

D. cats

69. When was this passage most probably written?

A. In the winter of 2002.

B. In the spring of 2003.

C. In the summer of 2002.

D. In the autumn of 2003.

70. From the passage, we can see that Takara is ______ the sale of its new gadget in the US.

A. proud of

B. pleased with

C. confident of

D. worried about

Guangzhou Zoo is the largest one in our city. The ticket for an adult is 80 yuan. The children over 1.20 m in height can pay only half of it, and the ones under 1.20 m can enter the zoo for free. The zoo opens from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm on weekdays and from 8:00 am to 5:30 pm on weekends.

By the way, while visiting the zoo, you”d better not feed the animals with the food you take. And don”t get too close to or even touch the animals. That would be very dangerous. Please keep the zoo clean as well.

Wish you a good time!
