Soon the Nautilus itself was stuck in the ice. The Nautilus dived to about eight hundred meters and travelled quickly under the icecap. Conseil and I looked for fish, but there were none. We travelled under the ice for two days. On the third day, we rushed onto the deck to see water and a small island. The crew caught some fish in their nets and we ate some for dinner. Captain studied his instruments and announced we were at the South Pole. We all cheered. Then the Nautilus dived and began its return voyage. Suddenly I felt a shock. The Nautilus had stopped moving and was leaning to one side. It was stuck under an iceberg. Captain Nemo was clearly worried. We were in a kind of tunnel with ice above and below us. Both ends of the tunnel wereblocked with more ice. Captain Nemo told us there were two ways of dying in that situation. We had enough air for two days, but we might be crushed before that. Captain Nemo and his crew used a long pole and found we were lying on ten meters of ice. The men began to cut the ice under Nautilus. It would take five nights and four days to remove enough ice to free the Nautilus. However, there was only enough air for two days.( ) 34.What life did Dr. Aronnax and Conseil see underneath the icecap?A.Vegetation.B.Lots of birds.C.Fish .D.Nothing.( ) 35.What happened when the Nautilus got stuck in the tunnel?A.It moved back and forth.B.It stopped on top of the iceberg.C.It leaned to one side.D.It was crushed by pressure tanks.( ) 36.What did Captain Nemo say might happen to them?A.They may starve to death.B.They may be crushedC.They may freeze to death.D.They may run out of electricity.( ) 37.How did the men know how much ice was underneath them?A.They used tools.B.They used a long pole.C.They used an arrow.D.They used an instrument panel.CWe often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there's always something staring at us right under our nose but we don't see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst.When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult.The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视)it.Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so, but because we realize it's for our own good.Happy people don't just accept change, they embrace(拥抱) it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.Jane always tells everyone that she doesn't have the courage to be around groups of people. She hears her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!Self-improvement may not be everybody's favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we're beginning to take things light and become happy.( ) 38. The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that .A.we learn our lessons when we experience pain.B.we are responsible for the problems we meet.C.life fails us when we get into the wrong wayD.life is a long journey full of ups and downs.( ) 39. What is the key to solving Jane's problem?A.She needs to remember why she started.B.She has to know how to get on with people.C.She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.D.She needs to understand the importance of confidence.( ) 40. The writer probably agrees that .A.the world tells us how to improve ourselves.B.people change when they find it easy to do that.C.welcoming change in life is a drive to become better.D.enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life harder.( ) 41. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Is it important to take things light?B.Is it necessary to embrace challenges?C.To hold on to the last moment or to give up?D.To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?DBreaking world recordsFrom eating the largest serving of noodles to traveling to the highest point on Earth, Guinness World Records has been encouraging people to test their limits since 1954. This year, the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged people all over the world, but they didn’t stop pushing the boundaries （界限）of the human experience. Here are three of this year’s feats （壮举）．Most times to visit the deepest point in Earth’s oceansWhich destination （目的地）would you most like to travel to? It may be a modern city like New York or a historical site like the Palace Museum in Bei-jing. But as an extreme explorer, Victor Vescovo in the US chose something different.In June, Vescovo, along with former NASA astronaut Kathryn Sullivan and adventurer Jim Wiggin ton, journeyed 10,927 meters underwater to the Challenger Deep. The Challenger Deep, located in the southern end of the Pacific Ocean’s Mariana Trench, is the deepest known spot in the world’s oceans. That was Vescovo’s eighth trip, earning him the Guinness World Record for most times to visit the Challenger Deep.“I love that there is still this huge unexplored region of our world and having the opportunity to voyage （航行）into the unknown and help to fill in the blank spaces on the map,” Vescovo told UPI.Tallest teenager in the worldBeing tall not only makes someone stand out in a crowd, but can also help them set a world record. Ren Keyu, 14, from Leshan city, Sichuan province, is 221 cm tall. In October, he earned the Guinness World Records title of “Tallest Youth (Male）”According to Red Star News, he was already 130 cm when he started kindergarten and has been growing taller ever since. His height may have something to do with heredity（遗传），as his grand-father and mother are both over 1.9 meters tall.Ren has a customized desk, chair, and school uniform to match his height. Most desks are about 75 cm tall, while most chairs are 45 cm. Ren’s desk and chair are 1 meter and 70 cm, respectively. For Ren, being tall has many advantages. “I can better help to clean the windows in my classroom，” said Ren.The most side jump push-ups in one minuteWhat can you do in one minute? Maybe solve a math problem or finish a snack（小吃）. But Suli-man Abdeljwaad from Saudi Arabia can do 40 side jump push-ups in one minute. This earned him the Guinness World Records title in September.According to the UPI website, his intense（高强度的）training helped him achieve the goal. ( ) 42. What does the article tell us about Vescovo’s travel?A.The Challenger Deep is located in the Dead Sea.B.He traveled to the Challenger Deep alone in June.C.He enjoyed exploring this mostly unknown place.D.He and his friends had different goals for the visit.( ) 43. What does the underlined word “customized” in paragraph 7 probably mean?A.Special.B. Advanced.C.Heavy.D.Handmade( ) 44.What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?A.How Abdeljwaad kept fit.B.What workout tips Abdeljwaad gave to others.C.How Abdeljwaad won the Guinness World Records title.D.What difficulties Abdeljwaad overcame for the record.( ) 45. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article?A.To push people to test their limits.B.To admire those who break records.C.To encourage people to fight against difficulties.D.To introduce a few Guinness World Records第Ⅱ卷（60分）四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分,计10分根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空,在答案卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。

Mary's house provides the following things except ________．A. a TVB. a computerC. a refrigeratorD. a washing machine53. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. If you are Mary's housemate ,you can surf the Internet for free.B. People who take the 4-week language course can all get a job overseas.C. The cost of the artist training course is $75 each hour.D. Someone who w ants to be Mary’s housemate should pay $3600 a year.BThis was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famouspeople having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts（花生）, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; let the coin decide. I flipped(掷) a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I deserved a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster’s office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.54. The task I received was to find information about ________.A. uses for peanutsB. American War of IndependenceC. George WashingtonD. my headmaster Miss Lancelot55. I ________ after I failed the subject.A. worked harder to prove my abilityB. started to study from the 7th gradeC. was so frightened at the awful resultD. was given a second chance to redo the work56. We can infer(推断) from the passage that ________.A. the headmaster didn’t like the writer at allB. the writer’s classmates felt sad at his mistakeC. the writer knew little about American historyD. the wr iter’s grandpa was a very wise man57. Which of the following proverbs can best describe the main idea of this story?A. Seeing is believing.B. Where there is a will, there is a way.C. One is never too old to learn.D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.CWhen you are on a long road trip or in a traffic jam during a daily commute, it may seem harmless to connect your phone to your car's USB port. But unless you really need to use your phone, charging(充电) your iphone during your commute could be a big mistake.Why? For starters, the USB port in our car probably provides less electricity than your phone really needs to charge. As a result, your phone might stop working while it charges.“Many people may notice that on their way home from work their phone charged very little during their 30～60 minute commute，” says Brad Nichols, an engineer at Staymobile. “It is mostly because that the phone is using more power than the car charger is providing it.”Nichols also says that your phone could receive too much power, especially if you are using a cigarette lighter port to charge up. Most cigarette lighters can provide more power than most chargers can afford. If a charger cannot keep providing the proper power, it may make the phone broken.Charging your phone could do harm to your car's battery(电池), too. This usually isn't a big deal for those who own new cars with healthy batteries, Nichols says. But if your car is older, you might not want to charge your phone through its USB port.Most importantly, it's not safe to use your phone while driving. “Anytime a person's hands leave the wheels or eyes leave the road, it becomes dangerous for them and the other people around them，” Nichols points out. Bottom line: Play it safe, and wait until you get home to charge your phone.58．The underlined word “commute” most probably means ________ in Paragra ph 1.A．a talk on the phone B．the task about businessC．the time of using the phone D．the journey to and from work59．How many disadvantages does the passage tell us on charging the phone in the car?A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.60．W hat does the underlined word “them” refer to in the last paragraph?A．The drivers. B．The hands. C．The cars. D．The roads.61．The passage mainly tells us ________.A．when is the best time to charge the phoneB．what we should do when we are driving our carsC．why we'd better not charge the phone while drivingD．how charging the phone in the car does harm to the car's batteryDAnother rich man in Venice was Shylock. He made money by lending money to others and making them pay interest. While Antonio did not make them pay interest. He thought it was wrong to make people pay interest. He said the rich should help the poor. Shylock was very angry about this because people went to borrow money from Antonio instead of borrowing from him. And Antonio and Shylock didn't like each other .They disagreed about a lot of things and did not talk to each other.When Bassanio visited Shylock. He asked Shylock to lend him thirty thousand dollars and said he would pay it back in three months.“How do I know you can pay it back?"asked Shylock. “My friend Antonio will help me. If I do not pay you in three months, he will do it for me.” Bassanio said.Shylock turned to smile. Perhaps this would be a chance for him . Shylock went to visit Antonio.When he saw him, he remembered how much he hated him. However, he did not show his hatred. He tried to be friendly.“It's thirty thousand dollars for three months, isn't it?" Antonio and Bassanio agreed. “What interest will you pay?”Shylock asked.Before long, Antonio and Shylock were arguing about interest. Antonio called Shylock some bad names. Bassanio was worried. Perhaps Shylock would not lend him the money, so he spoke to Antonio. Antonio was sorry.“If you lend us this money,”pleaded A ntonio,"I will not call you bad na mes.” Shylock pretended to be surprised. “Come with me to the judge,” said Shylock, “so that he can write the contract.I will lend you thirty thousand dollars for three months.You will pay no interest. Just for fun, however , let's agree that if you do not pay me on time, you will give me one pound of your flesh from wherever I choose to take it!”Antonio agreed. He even told Bassanio that he thought Shylock was kind because he was not making them pay interest. Antonio agreed to the penalty, and they planned to meet at the judge's house.62.From Paragraph 1 ,we can know_______________.A. Poor people in Venice often liked to borrow money from ShylockB.

I moved to the small, busy town of Edison in New Jersey six years ago. It was during the second term o f my fifth grade. My parents got new jobs and higher income（收入）, so they decided it was time to move from Woodbridge to a better, more educational town.In the US, it is unnecessary to take a test to get into a “good” middle or high school. You just attend the school close to where you live. So, many parents will think about the quality (质量) of the local school when they decide to buy a new house. My parents did the same. We finally chose Edison mainly because of the high quality of its school.In New Jersey, an area w ith a good school usually means a concentration of Asian people. There are about 300 students in our school. 55% are Asians and just under half of that are Chinese. There are so many Chinese people nearby that we even have our own Chinese school.Edison is an old town, just like thousands of others in the United States. However, I have treated it as my hometown. That’s where I spend much of my youth, and the memories there can’t be moved at all.54. Why did the writer’s parents move to Edison?A. Because they were born there.B. Because it was a better educational town.C. Because the writer began his fifth grade.D. Because the writer didn’t need to take a test.55. How many students are from Asia in the writer’s school?A. About 80.B. About 160.C. About 220.D. About 300.56. What does the underlined expression “a concentration of” mean in Paragraph 3?A. None ofB. The whole ofC. A large number ofD. A small number of57. Why can’t the writer forget Edison?A. Because he regards it as his hometown.B. Because his parents got new jobs there.C. Because there are many Asians there.D. Because it is in the state of New JerseyCSpring will soon be upon us and a new term is here. All over the world spring is the season of new life: flowers bloom, baby animals are born, and the weather becomes warmer．During this time of year, people usually walk around with a spring in their steps and a feeling of fresh beginnings．However, for a fresh beginning it takes more than the bright colors and fresh air of spring．We need to look at ourselves, set new goals（目标）, and decide how to improve ourselves．In England ,people usually do this on the first day of the year. We look at the past year and think about what we' d like to change or improve in our lives, and we call this a New Year' s resolution（决心）．These can be anything from improving one' s health through exercise or giving up bad habits, to studying harder for better grades or trying to find a good work or life balance．Luckily, we don' t have to wait for the beginning of a new year to try and b ecome better people．We can do this whenever we like．The milestone of a new term is just a good place to start.Sometimes it' s difficult to take the first step in achieving newly set goals, but an old saying is "to begin is to be half-way there．" I agree with this because taking on a new task or changing habits can seem daunting at first, but once we begin, they get easier．The trick（技巧）with deciding on a resolution for a new term is not to set unrealistic(不实际) goals. If we do this, it's easy to lose heart, because the final goal seems so far away. Try to make many small goals that you want to reach on the way to your final goal. This way, you can see your progress easily.58. In Paragraph One, the writer wants to tell us that spring is a time _________．A. to take a walk around outdoorsB. to enjoy fresh air and bright colorsC. to set goals for a fresh beginningD. for animals to have babies59. According to Paragraph Four, the writer agree with ________.A. Be swift to hear, slow to speak．B. All that ends well is well．C. Well begun is half done．D. All roads lead to Rome．60. What does the underlined word "daunting" probably mean in Paragraph Four?A. changeableB. difficultC. lovelyD. dangerous61. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?A. If you see no progress, you'll be sad.B. Whatever happens, stick to your dreams．C. Never lose heart when meeting with difficultiesD. Your goals should be realistic and small．DIf the population of the earth continues to increase , there will not be enough resources (资源) left to keep life on the planet. We will use up all the oil that drives our cars sooner or later .One possible way to work out the problem, has recently been suggested by an American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan.Sagan believes that before the ea rth’s resources are completely used, it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus(金星) and create a new world almost as large as Earth itself. The difficulty is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a little water there.Sagan suggests that algae organisms(海藻组织) can live in very hot or cold temperatures and at the same time produce oxygen. They should be bred(养殖) in conditions similar to those on Venus. When this has been done, In a short time, the algae will break down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon.When the algae have done their work, the atmosphere will become cooler, but before man can set foot on Venus it will be necessary for the oxygen to produce rain. The surface of the planet will still be too hot for man to land on but the rain will finally fall and i n a few years something like earth will be reproduced on Venus.62. The population growth on Earth will cause the lack(缺乏) of _________.A. foodB. oilC. spaceD. resources63. What is one of the difficulties for the human race to live on Venus?A. The shortage of the algaeB. The shortage of carbonC. The much hotter weatherD. The much cooler weather64. Whic h of the following statements about the algae is NOT true according to the passage?A. It can live in very hot temperatures.B. It can live in very cold temperatures.C. It can break down the carbon dioxide.D. It can provide enough food for man.65. This passage is mainly about __________.A. the possibility of living on VenusB. the population of the earthC. the American scientist SaganD. the weather of other planets答案：CCA BBCA CCBD DCDA江苏省扬州中学教育集团树人学校2018-2019学年九年级上学期期中考试英语试卷四、阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分,计30分)阅读下列内容,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案.AI really enjoyed this movie.

It’s so well made--- some of the scenes are so beautiful. ——JohnI went to see this movie with my 8-year-old daughter this Tuesday, really without knowing too much about it.

According to the passage, the movie most probably tells a _______ story.A. funnyB. sadC. terribleD. trueBI was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, " Son, remember: Be slow and steady ( 镇定的), and that will win the race. Don't you think there's something to learn from the tortoise?"Sonny opened his eyes wide, "Do you mean next time when I'm entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?"I was shocked, "But the tortoise didn't wish that the hare would fall asleep!""He must have wished that," Sonny said, "Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.""He didn't have such a wish," I insisted. "He won the race by perseverance, by pushing on steadily."Sonny thought a while. "That's a lie," he said. "He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn't happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he'd never have won the race. That's for sure."I gave up. Today's children are not like what we used to be. They're just hopeless.( ) 54. What does the underline word mean ________________.A. 侥幸的B. 自然的C. 坚忍不拔的D. 乐观向上的( ) 55. According to Sonny, it was the tortoise's wish that ____________.A. the hare would be as steady as he wasB. he could run faster than the hareC. the hare would fall asleep during the raceD. he would have a sleep during the race( ) 56.

It is clear that the writer___________ in the end.A. learned a lessonB. won the argumentC. became impatientD. was satisfiedCSmall drones（无人机）can help carry packages to your home. For two years, Google has been working hard in their secret research lab. They have made great progress. Their latest project is called Project Wing. Project Wing is Google’s invention of a drone delivery service. It is half plane and half helicopter（直升机）and is slightly bigger than a seagull. It can deliver packages to customers’ doors.The first drone test was made on a farm in Warwick, Australia. It sent sweets and dog treats to a farmer. The drone flew to the farm, hovered（盘旋）, and released the package with a wire. Delivery is here!The best thing about drone delivery services is that delivery times will be greatly cut down. You’ll be able to order online in the morning. And by noon, the delivery drone will deliver you package.Throughout history, there have been a series of inventions that have helped people move things around, said Astro Teller, lead scientist of Google Wing, to CNN. Teller thinks Google drones will be the next big step in the series.Interestingly, drones are not that young. The USA has been using armed（武装）drones since 2002. But drones may also get another use. Film companies have asked to use drones to shoot videos from the sky.Google’s delivery drones won’t be able to fly to customers any time soon. However, Google has proved that drone delivery is possible. And with Amazon announcing their drone delivery service last year, the heat is on to make safe and suitable drones to fly the skies for customers.( ) 58. Paragraph 2 of the reading is mainly about ______.A. what a drone isB. how a drone worksC. how a drone is producedD. how a drone is designed( ) 59. According to the reading, Project Wing ______.A. flies very highB. releases the package without a wireC. is not big in sizeD. flies faster than birds( ) 60. According to the passage, drones have been in use in the following fields except______?A. military (军事)B. filmsC. deliveryD. education( ) 61. Which of the following is NOT true about the invention?A. The new invention can cut down the time of delivery.B. Astro Teller is the lead scientist of Project Wing.C. Google drones are the next big step in helping people move things around.D. Drones will take a long time to deliver a package.DMany expressions that we use in American English come from novels. Today we will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll’s famous novel “Alice in Wonderland” in detail.The story is about a young girl falling down a rabbit hole. When she finally lands, she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters.The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit, who runs past her and says some strange words. Alice runs after him, and that is where her adventures begin.In English, chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation.Then, as she runs after the rabbit, she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland.To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a situation which makes people feel puzzled. However, usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distractions(分神). It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful.Later in the story, Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party. Hares have long been thought to behave excitedly in March, which is their mating（交配）season. Scientifically, this may not be true. But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad, or crazy. The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy. Of the two, mad as a Hatter is more common.Near the end of the story, Alice meets the Queen of Hearts. A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her.( ) 62. Which of the following situations best fits the expression “to fall down a rabbit hole”?A. When Jack was sitting in the study, he got bored with the homework and felt sleepy.B. When Sue turned On the TV, she chose to watch her favourite programme as usual.C. When Jim was looking for a sport book online, he lost himself in reports on superstars.D. When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem, she came up with a good idea. ( ) 63.According to the passage, the expression “to be mad as a March Hare” .A. describes how hares behave in MarchB. shows hares’ characteristics in a funny wayC. is used more often than the expression mad as a HatterD. has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter( ) 64. Which of the following characters wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation?A. Alice.B. The March Hare.C. The Hatter.D. The Queen of Hearts.( ) 65. The writer mainly wants to ________in this passage.A. introduce a famous novel and its language styleB. introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novelsC. explain some English expressions from a famous novelD. explain why many expressions in English come from novels答案：51---53 DDA 54---57 CCBC 58---61 BCDD 62---65 CDDC。

In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?■ Listen—Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.■ Help them—If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. Y ou should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything the y want you to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.■ Be there for them—Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control, but if you can’t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve （应得）to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to be with them when they’re having a good time!■ _________—Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!54.

Y ou turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists (灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受试者）were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”58. The aim of the two experiments is to ________.A. explain when people can have a sixth senseB. show how people act while being watched in the labC. study whether humans can sense when they are stared atD. prove why humans have a sixth sense59.

What can be learned from the passage?A. People are born with a sixth sense.B. The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.C. The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.62.
