Ⅲ.阅读理解

第一节

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

Elephants might be the most well­known and well­loved animals in African wildlife.But conservation(保护) of the African elephant faces special difficulties.While the elephant population is half of what it was 40 years ago，some areas of Africa have more elephants than populated areas can support.That's why AWF scientists are studying elephant behavior，protecting habitats and finding ways for humans to live peacefully with elephants in Africa.

Years ago，overhunting and the ivory trade were the biggest threats to elephants' survival.Luckily，bans(禁令)of ivory，hunting rules and protected areas protect elephants from these dangers today.

The 21st century brings a different challenge to elephant conservation—land­use.Elephants walk across borders and outside parks and other protected areas.So they often destroy crops，causing conflicts(冲突) between local farmers and these big animals.

Successful conservation strategies(策略) must allow elephants to walk freely in their natural habitats while reducing conflicts between elephants and local people.

AWF researchers are searching for a way to give both elephants and people the space they need.The AWF is collecting information on elephant habitats and behavior.The information they gather will help to develop the widest possible space for elephants.

The AWF is helping elephants by protecting their habitats.And they also work with local farmers to improve their life in order to encourage them to protect rather than destroy elephants.

36．The first paragraph of the text is mainly to tell readers ______.

A．African elephants are endangered now

B．there remains a lot to do to protect African elephants

C．African elephants are popular animals

D．the number of African elephants has increased over the years

37．What is the biggest difficulty in protecting African elephants now?

A．They are still being killed.

B．Their habitats are being destroyed.

C．They don't have enough food.

D．They can't live in peace with farmers.

38．To protect elephants，the AWF does all the following EXCEPT ______.

A．keeping elephants

B．protecting elephant habitats

C．doing research on elephants

D．helping farmers improve their life

39．The underlined word“them”in the last paragraph refers to “______”．

A．members of the AWF   B．local farmers

C．conservation strategies   D．other big animals

B

An elderly carpenter(木匠)was ready to retire.He told his employer of his plans to leave the house­building business and live a more comfortable life with his wife and children.

He would miss the paycheck,_but he had to retire.The employer was so sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor.The carpenter said yes，but it was easy to see that his heart was not in the work.He showed poor worship and used materials of low quality.It was bad to end his career.[来源:www.shulihua.net]

When the carpenter finished his work，the employer came to inspect the house，and he handed the door key to the carpenter.“This is your house，” he said，“my gift to you.”What a shame！If he had only known he was building his own house，he would done it differently.

Think of yourself as the carpenter.Think about your house.Each day you hammer a nail，place a board，or create a building wisely.It is the only life you will ever build.Even if you live in it for only one day，that day deserves to be lived graciously with dignity.The plaque(牌匾)on the wall says，“Life is a do­it­yourself project.” Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

40．The underlined word “paycheck” probably means “______.”

A．job    B．company   C．salary    D．colleague[来源:www.shulihua.net]

41．Why was the employer so sorry to see the carpenter go?[来源:www.shulihua.net]

B．Because the carpenter would work for another employer.

C．Because the carpenter was too old to work for him.

A．He would forget the idea of retiring.[来源:www.shulihua.net]

B．He would try his best to build a good house.

C．He would do the same thing as what he did.

D．He would ask for money instead.

43．How do you understand the underlined sentence “Life is a do­it­yourself project.”？

第二节

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Psychologists(心理学家) tell us that there are four basic stages that human beings pass through when they enter and live in a new culture.This process，which helps us to deal with culture shock，is the way our brain and our personality react to the strange new things we encounter(遇到) when we move from one culture to another.

Culture begins with the “honeymoon stage”．__44__ We are excited to be in the new environment，seeing new sights，hearing new sounds and language，eating new kinds of food.__45__

__46__ After we have settled down into our new life，we can become very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family，friends，pets.All the little problems in life seem to be much bigger and more disturbing when you face them in a foreign culture.This period of cultural adjustment(调整) can be very difficult and lead to the new arrival rejecting or pulling away from the new culture.

The third stage is called the “adjustment stage”．__47__ Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you realize that you are becoming stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place.Things are still difficult，but you are now a survivor!

The fourth stage can be called“at ease at last”．Now you feel quite comfortable in your new surroundings.__48__ You may still have problems with the language，but you know you are strong enough to deal with them.

A．You can cope with most problems that occur.

B．This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the host culture.

C．It is extremely difficult to get through the first stage of culture.

D．You may feel sad，anxious，frustrated，and want to go home.

E．Unfortunately，the second stage can be more difficult.

F．This stage can last for quite a long time because we feel we are involved in some kind of great adventure.

G．This is the period of time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture is strange and exciting.

参考范文：

As is known to all，the number of wild animals is decreasing quickly and some of them are in danger of dying out.There are many reasons for this.

Firstly，some people are still hunting wild animals.Secondly，the habitat of wild animals is being destroyed.Lastly，the pollution of the environment also leads to wild animals' dying.

What should we do to help the animals？On the one hand，we should stop hunting wild animals and destroying their habitat at once.On the other hand，we must take measures to stop pollution.Only working together can we protect wild animals better.
