Imagine,John Lennon’s most famous song was recently voted “Britain’s favourite song of all time”. It’s an idealistic song about peace and hope for a better world. ‘Imagine all the people living life in peace’. The song was a big hit in 1971 and again in 1981 Lenn on was murdered in New York. It became a hit for a third time after the terrorist attacks of september 11th , 2001.But who really wrote the song? Until recently the answer to this question was always John Lennon. But on a TV program this week, Lennon’s wi fe, Yoko Ono, spoke for the first time about how she in fact helped to write the song.Ono said that the idea and inspiration (灵感) for imaging came from some of her poems that John Lennon was reading at that time. The poems began with the word ‘Imagine’. O no said during the Second World War, my brother and I were terribly hungry. I imagined delicious menus for him and he began to smile.In an interview just before he died, Lennon admitted that Yoko deserved credit for imaging. He said a lot of it came from her, from her book of poems. Imagine this, imagine that.Ono said that some of the song was written when they were flying across the Atlantic, and the rest was written on the piano in their bedroom at their home in England. Ono said, “The song speaks about John’s dream for the world. It was something he really wanted to say.” Imagine became a popular song for peace activists everywhere.In March 2002, the airport in his hometown of Liverpool was renamed John Lennon Airport. A sign above the main entrance has a line from Imagine‘Above us only shine’.1. What does the author say about the song?A．Imagine a is closely related to Lenon’s death.B．It’s the most popular song in the world.C．It encourages listeners to use their imagination.D．It expresses Lenn on’s wish for world peace.2. Lennon came up with the idea for Imagine because of _________.A．people’s smiles on their facesB．his anger over World War IIC．his wife’s poemsD．some delicious menus3. The underlined word “credit” in Paragraph Four probably means ________A．praise B．attentionC．consideration D．support4. What’s the best title for the text?A．Why Was Imagine Written?B．Who Wrote ImagineC．The Reason Behind Imagine’s Success.D．The Unknown Secret of John Lennon3. All parents tell their children little white lies from time to time. For example, they always say, “Of course father Christmas comes down the chimney!” It is all part of the magic of childhood. However, there is one lie that’s bigger than all the others. It’s “I don’t have a favorite child”.American writer, Jeffrey Kluger writes, “95% of parents in the world have a favourite child, and the other 5% are lying.” He may be exaggerating (夸大) the figures for dramatic effect, but scientific research shows that Kluger is not far off the truth, although every parent refuses to admit that they have a favorite child.According to one recent study by the researchers from the University of California, which followed 384 sibling (兄弟姐妹) pairs and their parents for three years, 65% of the mothers and 70% of the fathers showed a preference for one of their children. As this study was among families that knew they were being monitored, there is a strong possibility the true figures could be significantly higher.Generally, parents would say there is no favoritism in their families. But interestingly, a lot of personal stories from parents shows that they or their siblings were indeed their mother or father’s favorite children. It seems everyone knows favoritism exists, but nobody wants to put their hand up and say they are guilty of it themselves.Another research suggests that mothers do tend to show a preference for their first-born son, while fathers often choose their youngest daughters as their favorite. Parents will often be drawn to the child who is easiest to get along with, or the child that share similar features to them. For example, mum will have a special bond with their sensitive, arty son while dad focuses attention on his sporty daughter.Professor Scott says being least f avoured in a family can colour our behaviour as adults. “Children who feel they are less loved within their family are more likely to develop anxiety, depression and low self confidence.” But some experts believe being less favoured can have positive conse quences. Professor Scott agrees that favored children can sometimes find life difficult when they have to live in the real world without their parents.1. The passage mainly tells the readers about_______________.A．parents’ preference for their childrenB．different ways of raising childrenC．people’s love for their parentsD．parents’ influences on their children2. What can be learned from Paragraph One and Two?A．There was no father Christmas or chimney at all.B．People remember the magic of their childhood.C．Parents really want to lie to their children.D．Few parents admit they have a favorite child.3. Who is most likely to become a mother’s favorite child?A．The son who shares similar features with his father.B．The most beautiful youngest girl in the family.C．The son who loves art and has a sensitive feeling.D．The daughter who plays basketball very well.4. What might happen if someone is the least favoured in a family?A．His behavior as an adult will be affected.B．He will have a colorful life in the future.C．He will become more confident.D．He will find that life is difficult.4. Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to all the buildings in the historic area of the city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons for example, economic (经济的) reasons why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should you do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoiled (破坏) the area they have in. But the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative (保守的) and do not like change.Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If you always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.1. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A．Most of them are too expensive to preserve.B．Some of them are not attractive.C．They are more pleasing than modern buildings.D．They have nothing to do with the historic view of an area.2. Which of the following is true according to the author?A．We should reproduce the same old buildings.B．Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C．No one understands why people speak against new buildings.D．Some old buildings have spoiled the area they are in.3. By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means _________.A．destroy old buildingsB．put things in a different placeC．respect people’s feelings for historical buildingsD．choose new architectural styles4. What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To explain why people dislike changeB．To warn that we could end up living in cavesC．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areasD．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings5. The idea that you either read for pleasure or for learning is misleading. 1 Still, you shouldn’t necessarily approach academic reading the same way you approach a beach read. In order to read and comprehend a book or article for school, you need to be much more intentional and strategic.2 It is important to know something about the type of text you’re reading, whether it is a nonfiction or a work of fiction. Understanding the style of a book helps you make predictions about the action and thus helps you comprehend it.Read with tools. Any time you read for learning, you should be reading actively. To do this, you’ll need some extra tools. For example, you can use a pencil to make comments in the blank space of your text without doing any permanent damage to the book. 3 Use your notes to take down thoughts, impressions, predictions, and questions as you read.Develop new vocabulary. 4 But it’s important to make a log book of those new words, and revisit them long after you’ve finished reading that book. The more you study a subject, the more it sinks in.Analyze the title. Once a text is completed, the writer may reflect on the true message or purpose as a final step and come up with a new title. It means you can use the title as a clue to understand the message or purpose of your text. 56. This first day of school can be stressful for both parents and children. But for Connor Crites, an eight-year-old Kansas boy living with autism(自闭症), it was _________ terrible until another child _________ in. Connor Crites was beginning his second grade at Minneha Elementary School in Wichita, Kansas.

There was a pool at the YMCA offering exactly the opportunity. My mother continually warned against it, and kept fresh in my mind the details of each drowning in the river. But the YMCA pool was safe.I had a childhood fear of water. This started when I was three years old and my father took me to the beach. The huge waves knocked me down and swept over me.The pool was quiet. I was afraid of going in all alone, so I sat on one side of the pool to wait for others. Then came a big boy. He yelled, “Hi, how’d you like to be ducked?” With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end. I landed in a sitting position, and swallowed water. But I was not frightened out of my wits—when my feet hit the bottom, I would make a big jump to come out of the surface. It seemed a long way down. I gathered all my strength when I landed and made what I thought was a great spring upwards. Then I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water. I tried to yell but no sound came out. I went down, down, endlessly.When I came to consciousness, I found myself lying on the bed in the hospital.I never went back to the pool. I avoided water whenever I could. This misadventure stayed with me as the years rolled by. It deprived (剥夺) me of the joy of boating and swimming. Finally, I decided to get an instructor. Piece by piece, he built a swimmer. Several months later, the instruction was finished, but I was not. Sometimes the terror would return.This went on until July. I swam across the Lake Wentworth. Only once did the terror return. When I was in the middle of the lake, I put my face under and saw nothing but bottomless water. I laughed and said, “Well, Mr. Terror, what do you think you can do to me?”I had conquered my fear of water.11．What was the author’s original fear of water caused by?A．His poor skill in swimming.B．His mother’s warning of drowning.C．An outing to the beach with his father.D．An unpleasant memory of the pool.12．Why was the author not scared to death when he was thrown into the water?A．He knew how to swim in the pool.B．He felt that the YMCA pool was safe.C．He was waiting for others to save him.D．He came up with an idea to go upwards.13．What does the author probably mean by expressing “but I was not” in paragraph 5?A．He was still a poor swimmer.B．He hadn’t overcome the fear yet.C．He hadn’t finished the instruction yet.D．He was not satisfied with the swimming training.14．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Goodbye, Mr. Terror B．Hello, Childhood FearC．A Swimming Adventure D．My Passion for SwimmingGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject wellenough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.15．How does the author explain the law of overlearning?A．By using examples.B．By making a comparison.C．By setting down general rules.D．By presenting research findings.16．What do we know about being able to use multiplication tables?A．It’s a skill to deal with math problems.B．It’s a special case of cramming.C．It’s a result of overlearning.D．It’s a basic step towards advanced studies.17．What is the author’s opinion on cramming?A．It leads to failure in college exams.B．It’s helpful only in a limited way.C．It increases students’ learning interest.D．It’s possible to result in poor memory.It’s surprising how much simple movements of the body can affect the way we think. Using expansive gestures with open arms makes us feel more powerful, crossing your arms makes you more determined and lying down can bring more insights.So if moving the body can have these effects, what about the clothes we wear? We’re all well aware of how dressing up in different ways can make us feel more attractive, sporty or professional, depending on the clothes we wear, but can the clothes actually change cognitive performance or is it just a feeling?Adam and Galinsky tested the effect of simply wearing a white lab coat on people’s powers of attention. The idea is that white coats are associated with scientists, who are in turn thought to have close attention to detail.What they found was that people wearing white coats performed better than those who weren’t. Indeed, they made only half as many errors as those wearing their own clothes on the Stroop Test (one way of measuring attention). The researchers call the effect “enclothed cognition,” suggesting that all manner of different clothes probably affect our cognition in many different ways.This opens the way for all sorts of clothes-based experiments. Is the writer who wears a fedora more creative? Is the psychologist wearing little round glasses and smoking a cigar more insightful? Does a chef’s hat make the restaurant food taste better?From now on I will only be editing articles for PsyBlog while wearing a white coat to help keep the typing error count low. Hopefully you will be doing your part by reading PsyBlog in a cap and gown (学位服). 18．What is the main idea of the text?A．Body movements change the way people think.B．How people dress has an influence on their feelings.C．What people wear can affect their cognitive performance.D．People doing different jobs should wear different clothes.19．What did Adam and Galinsky’s experiment test the effect of clothes on?A．Their wearers’ insights.B．Their wearers’ attention.C．Their wearers’ movements.D．Their wearers’ appearance.20．How does the author sound in the last paragraph?A．Formal.B．Hopeful.C．Academic.D．Humorous.四、其他21．将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序，构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。

广东省佛山市南海一中高二第一次月考高二年级英语测试卷高二年级英语测试卷第二部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2 分，满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C﹑D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AI was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take yo ur shoes away!Why under m y bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even di dn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.21. What made Kate so angry one evening?A. She coul dn’t find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the auth or’s shoes beneath her bed.22. The author tidied up the room most probably because ________.A. she was scared by Kate’s angerB. she hated herself for being so messyC. she wanted to show her careD. she was asked by Kate to do so23. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By showing differences.C. By describing a process.D. By following time order.24. What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesBThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Som e people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths: I’ll never lose weight—I come from a fat familyWrong!W hile we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. Th ere’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercising too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong!Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism (新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they alsofail to realize how much they eat!Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong!Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong!Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exe rcise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your life-style and the aches should disappear relatively qui ckly. If they don’t, rest and seek medical advice.25. What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D. It is the consequence of people’s unbalance d life-style.26. According to the author, how can we make exercise more interesting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercise.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.27. What is the author’s opinion about “No pain, no gain” in exercising?A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.28. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid—we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus , a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we’d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to creat e adequate “hitting.”But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you cancr eate a “non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles (粒子) in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may s ound, it’s still rather mess y and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink—and take a shower afterward!29. Walk ing on water hasn’t become a rea lity mainly because humans ________.A. are not interested in itB. have biological limitationsC. have not invented proper toolsD. are afraid to make an attempt30. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.31. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.32. What is the autho r’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.DOne moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire—crackling, snapping, trail-blazing.But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again—the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadows-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive.

They were asked which they liked reading most among the four categories of English articles - news, stories, popular science articles andarticles about learning methods.The survey shows that more than half of the students like to read news most. Twenty-six percent of the students say that English stories are their favorite. Only seven percent of the students are most interested in reading articles about learning methods. However, the number of students who enjoy reading popular science articles doubles that of those who prefer reading articles about learning methods.As for my reading interest, news articles are my first choice. For one thing, Ican get to know the current affairs abroad; for another, I can enlarge my vocabulary. More importantly, it broadens my horizons.听力原文：Question1-2W: G eorge! It’s so lovely to see you again! It’s been ages since we last met.M: Oh, I suppose it is. But weren’t you at Michael’s when he had his twenty-first birthday party last August?W: No, I wasn’t. I got the flu at the last minute. I think the last time I saw you was three years ago in December, when we all had dinner together in that Indian restaurant...M: No, surely we’ve met since then...wait a minute...it was at Peter’s place, when he and Jenny got married in March.W: Yes, of course it was!Questions:1.Why did the man go to Michael’s?2.When did the speakers meet last time?Question3-4W: Hi Paul. I’m so sorry, but I can’t pick you up from work this afternoon. I’ve just learned that I’m working outside the city today and I’ll get back just in ti me to pick up Toby from his after-school club before they close at 5:00.M: OK. I’ m not very happy to hear that, but never mind. I’ll take a taxi again.W: Wait. Wait. Don’t get upset. After I pick up Toby, I’ll drive him straight to his guitar lesson. The music school is on the same subway line as your office, just two stops away. So you could take the subway and meet me in the café opposite the music school. We’ll wait for Toby there and then I’ll drive us all home together.M: Darling, that’s a great idea. I’ll be there. It’s not too far so I’ll walk.Questions:3.What will the woman do after work?4.How will the man get home?Question5-6W: Hi, Bill. I’m having trouble deciding which class to take this term. Last term, I had a really horrible teacher for art history-Ms. Taylor.M: If you like art history, why don’t you do art? Mr. Harris teaches that, and he’s really easy-going.W: Yeah, but I’m hopeless at drawing and painting I like looking at it more than actually doing it...Maybe a foreign language? I’ve always wanted to learn French.M: Well, there’s a new teacher for French this term —Mrs. Brown. I can’t tell you what she’s like, but she looks okay.W: I don’t really want to risk it...M: How about Miss Williams? I’ve had her for geography before, and she’s really interesting.W: But her class is already full. I guess that really just leaves German. Doesn’t Mr. Smith teach that? He seems friendly enough.M: Yeah, but he only teaches the advanced classes. If you wanted to do level oneGe rman, you’d end up with Mr. Jones, and he’s very strict.W: Oh. dear. I guess I’ll do the same class as last year. At least, the subject’s OK. Questions:5.Who teaches art?6.What class will the woman take?Question7-10This week so far has been very warm, but from tomorrow, Thursday, I’m afraid this is going to change. It’s going to get a lot more cloudy on Thursday morning. You can forget about the lovely days we’ve been having as temperatures are going to drop by six to ten degrees! From the early hours of F riday morning, there’s going to be heavy rain over much of the country. However, it’ll have dried up by the evening, but it’ll still be quite coldNow let’s see how the weekend looks. Saturday will be sunny all day, but Sunday won’t be quite as pleasant. I t’s not going to rain, but strong winds will be blowing from the north. If you’re thinking about going for a bike ride on Sunday, be extremely careful; road conditions could be dangerous because of this. And camping is not a good idea. It’ll be a great day for windsurfing though! Whatever you do, take care and have a great time!Questions:7.What day of the week is it today?8.How will the weather change on Friday morning?9.What will the weather be like on Saturday?10.What is considered to be the best activity for Sunday?。

We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill.

Some people believe that they can't help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:I come from a fat familyI'll never lose weight—Wrong!While we can't change the body type we are born with, we can't blame our genes forthat fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that making us fat.

Sadly, biologicalfacts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid—we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure thatHowever, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is thecommon basilisk Basilicus basilicus , a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water's surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward.For humans to do this, we'd need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to createBut fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickeningagent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a “non-Newtonian”liquid that doesn't behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles (粒子) in the watergroup together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour. Fun though all this may sound, it's still rather messy and better read about in theory than carriedout in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink—and take a shower afterward!29. Walking on water hasn't become a reality mainly because humans ________.A. are not interested in itB. have biological limitationsC. have not invented proper toolsD. are afraid to make an attempt30. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.31. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.32. What is the author's attitude toward the idea of humans' walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire—crackling, snapping, trail-blazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again—the tell-页 - 3 - 第I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest.
