Come over, we need someone who know s what they’re doing in goa l!” I yelled.“I can’t! I have to do something/’ he shouted hack, as he continued to walk down th e dusty road. The village shops were in the other direction and, as far as I knew, this road went through the jungle.“It won’t take long. Just half an hour! They’re killing us! It’s 3-0 already, we really need you,” I begged. It was unlike Decha to turn down a game of football.“Where are you going anyway?” I asked as I fell into step with him.“It’s just a …” he was looking over his shoulder at the other boys, but they weren’t p aying us any attention. “You can come if you like.” he whispered. I don’t know what it w as, but suddenly my interest was aroused. Decha was a football addict. I knew my friend was up to something.“OK,” I said casually, trying to hide my curiosity.We walked along in silence for a few minutes until we went into the jungle. The temperature dropped instantly. There were no pathways, but it was clear that someone had passed through recently.“We need to be really quiet.” Decha warned suddenly. “We don’t want to frighten them.” He shifted a bag that I hadn’t even noticed onto his shoulder. My heart was beating wildl y.Eventually, we stopped at a pile of fallen leaves. Inside the pile, four small furry bodies lay there with their mouths wide open. Taking out some bread from his bag, Decha said, “Their mother is hurt and can’t feed herself, but she’s getting stronger every day.”24. What made the author think Decha’s behavior was unusual?A.

UnfriendlyCScientists have been studying how people use money for long. Now they’re finding some theories may apply to one group of monkeys.Researchers recently taught six monkeys how to use money. They gave the monkeys small metal disks （圆片）that could be used like cash and showed them some yummy apple pieces. The monkeys soon figured out that if they gave one of the disks to a scientist, they’d receive a piece of apple in return.If you think that is all the monkeys can figure out, you are wrong. Two researchers, Jake and Allison, acted as apple sellers in the experiments. The monkeys were tested one at a time and had 12 disks to spend in each experiment. Jake always showed the monkeys one apple piece, while Allison always showed two pieces. But that’s not necessarily what they gave the monkeys. The number of apple pieces given for a disk was determined at random.Experiment One: Allison showed two pieces of apples but gave both piece only half the time. The other half, she took one piece away and gave the monkey just the remaining piece. Jake, on the other hand, always gave exactly what he showed: one piece for each disk. The monkeys chose to trade more with Allison.Experiment Two: Allison continued to sometimes gave two pieces and sometimes one piece. But now, half the time, Jake gave the one apple piece he was showing, and half the time he added a bonus. Guess what? The monkeys chose to trade more with Jake.In the first experiment, the monkeys correctly figured out that if they traded with Allison, they’d end upwith more treats. In the second one, when a monkey received two pieces from Jake, it seemed like a gain. When Allison gave the monkey only one piece instead of the two she showed, it seemed like a loss. The monkeys preferred trading with Jake because they’d rather take a chance of seeming to win than seeming to lose.We also sometimes make silly business decisions just to avoid the feeling that we’re getting less, even when we’re not. Would you have made the same choices?28. What conclusion might experts draw from the first experiment?A. People are smarter in terms of finance.B. It’s easy to teach monkeys how to trade.C. Business theories can apply to all monkeys.D. The monkeys show certain business sense.29. What does “a bonus” in paragraph 5 refer to?A. A coin.B. A chance.C. A metal disk.D. An apple piece.30. Why did the monkeys choose to trade more with Jake in the second experiment?A. Because they didn’t like the feeling of losing.B. Because they get more apple pieces from Jake.C. Because Jake always gave them two apple pieces.D. Because the apple pieces from Jake were yummy.31. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Disk for Apple: Who to Trade with?B. Shopping for Bargain: Same or different?C. Moneky’s Business Sense: Smart or Silly?D. People’s Business Decision: Lose or Gain?DJapanese researchers made a botanical announcement on Monday that quickly circled the world. They had developed a banana with an eatable peel（皮）—the Mongee banana.The technique used by scientists at D&T Farm is called “freeze thaw awakening”. The process involves starling banana trees out in an environment that’s nearly minus-80 degrees Fahrenheit, then moving the treeswith their still-ripening bananas to a climate of around 80 degrees - an environment banana trees typically grow in the entire time. The extrem e temperature change puts the banana’s growth into a superfast-speed mode. I n this case, the fruit ripens before the skin can catch up. The result is soft and thin skin that hasn’t fully developed.The banana has been produced only in small amount so far, so customers face a steep bill to save themselves the bother of peeling their bananas: it is currently priced at 648 yen（$6）a piece. There’s also the question of whether a banana peel is actually worth eating and whether regular banana peels had, rather suddenly, become too big a problem for people who slip on them to bear anymore.And what about shipping? For most of the fruit’s history, the peel has provided protection, allowing it to travel long distances from where it’s grown to nearly every country on Earth. A softer banana would be a step back from regular banana varieties that travel thousands of miles.But the banana in the news is arguably good, particularly for a fruit that rarely receives its share of attention. Bananas are the most consumed fruit in Japan, and also in the U.S. So even if eatable-peel bananas don’t ensure plentiful bananas, or even ne cessarily nutritious bananas, they still look great on Instagram, which probably ensures them a future in Japan’s famous luxury（奢侈）fruit markets.32. What do we know about “freeze thaw awakening”?A. It allows the banana skin to be as ripe as the fruit.B. It leaves the banana skin thin and partially-developed.C. It forces banana trees to grow more slowly than usual.D. It provides an environment banana trees typically grow in.33. What might be the major problem for the export of the Mongee banana?A. Its weak market.B. Its unreasonable price.C. Its small amount.D. Its inconvenient transport.34. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. There is potential market for the Mongee banana.B. Japanese have become fans of eatable-peel bananas.C. Eatable-peel bananas are healthier than regular ones.D. The Mongee banana doesn’t receive enough attention.35. What is the author’s attitud e towards the eatable-peel bananas?A. Positive.B. Cautious.C. Doubtful.D. Objective.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。
