IV 阅读理解 ( 共10 小题,每小题 2 分 ,满分20分)

A

Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.

Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits, honey and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season.

Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.

41.We can infer from the text that humans and animals ____________. A. depend on one sense in choosing food B. are not satisfied with their food C. choose food in similar ways D. eat entirely different food

42.Which of the following eats only one type of food? A. The white butterfly. B. The small bird. C. The bear. D. The fox.

43.Certain animals change their choice of food when ___________. A. the season changes B. the food color changes

C. they move to different places

D. they are attracted by different smells

44.We can learn from the last paragraph that __________.

A. food is chosen for a good reason B. French and British food is good

C. some people have few choices of food D. some people care little about healthy diet

B

Artificial flowers are used for scientific as well as for decorative purposes. They are made from a variety of materials, such as wax and glass, so skillfully that they can scarcely be distinguished from natural flowers. In making such models, painstaking and artistry are called for, as well as thorough knowledge of plant structure. The collection of glass flowers in the Botanical Museum of Harward University is the most famous in North America and is widely known throughout the scientific world. In all, there are several thousand models in colored glass, the work of two artist-naturalists, Leopold Blaschka and his son Rudolph.

The intention was to have the collection represent at least one member of each flower family native to the United States. Although it was never completed. It contains more than seven hundred species representing 164 families of flowering plants, a group of fruits showing the effect of fungus(真菌) diseases, and thousands of flower parts and magnified details. Every detail of these is accurately reproduced in color and structure. The models are kept in locked cases as they are too valuable and fragile （易碎的）for classroom use.

45.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. An Extensive Collection of Glass Flowers B. The Lives of Leopold and Rodolph. C. Flowers Native to the United States. D. Material Used for Artificial Flowers

46.It can be inferred from the passage that the goal of Leopold and Rudolph was to ___________. A. created a botanical garden where only exotic United States flowers grew B. do a thorough study of plant structure

C. make a copy of one member of each United States flower family D. Show that glass flowers are more realistic than wax flowers

47.Which of the following is NOT included in the display at the Botanical Museum of Harvard University?

A. Models of 164 families of flowering plants. B. Magnified details of flower parts. C. Several species of native birds. D. A group of diseased fruits.

The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phones text messages. Text messages (also called SMS)through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other.
