So itcomes as a surprise to learn that giant fish are terrifying the divers on North Seaoil rigs. Oil rigs have to be repaired frequently and divers, who often have to workin darkness a hundred feet under water, have been frightened out of their wits bygiant fish bumping into them as they work. Now they have had special cages made toprotect them from these monsters.The fish are not sharks or killer whales, but favourite eating varieties like cod and skate which grow to unnatural sizes, sometimes as much as twelve feet in length. Three factors have caused these fish to grow so large: the warm water round the hot oil pipes under the sea; the plentiful supply of food thrown overboard by the crews on the rigs; the total absence of fishing boats around the oil rigs. As a result, the fish just eat and eat and grow and grow in the lovely warm water. Who eats who36.The following the title with the meaning and most the most novel（新颖的）A.About the seaB.What's for supperC.Don't overfish in sea!D.Attack people by fish37.Why now to take cage（笼子）divers in the waterA.Because they will use the cage to catch fish.B.Because they will use from the big fish cages attacks.C.Because they will use the cage with food.D.Because they like the cage with me increased buoyancy（浮力）.38.The picture of the word "terrifying" passage in Chinese is what meanA.亲吻B.防御C.袭击D.扑咬39.This paper mentioned（提及）which XiangYing americans favourite dishesA.Fish and watermelon.B.Chili fry meat.C.Pumpkin bread and milk.D.Fish and chips.40.Which of the following statements（叙述） is a correct（正确的）A.In people overfishing, the fish has become more and more expensive, but now and falls.B.Here the ocean fish can grow so big is all caused by human factors（因素）.C.The damage of the big fish is people sharks.D.People and animals should be peaceful coexistence（和谐相处）.BPumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously. However, as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar. ?The hunt for the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw 'a large cat' only five yards away from her. It immediately ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered（adj.被困得走投无路的）. The search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place twenty miles away in the evening. Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape. The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think thata dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.41.Where are pumas fromA.China42.Why then London zoo on the puma paying attention to the newsA.Because they are afraid of American lion ate them.B.Because there is more and more relevant evidence.C.For a country to enforce（强迫的）their investigation（调查）.D.Puma at that time has appeared.43.Investigation begin from whereA.a small villageB.a big cityC.a Huge forestterrible（可怕的）laboratory.44.When often see in point puma at A land（甲地）A.In the morning.noon.the raining.the wind blows at night45.Why do people think this mountain lion is private raiseA.Because the lion will not bite.B.Because there is not a zoo report lost lion.C.Because the lion's body have private mark（记号）.D.Because lions said one word with human.CHow important is your appearance Although everyone want to be good-looking ,are beautiful people always’s happier peopleFor example,it must be a problem to be a really beautiful woman,because some people may be more interested in looking at you than talking to think of you as a picture rather than a are also some people who think that women who are exceptionally（格外地）pretty and men who are particularly handsome must be believe that only unattractive（无魅力的）people can beintelligent.On the other hand,no one wants to be really ugly,and have a face that even your mother doesn’t want to look at ;and no one wants to be plain,either-that is ,to be neither attracvive nor unattractive ,and have a face that is easily forgotten.Being attractive is like being rich it can help you find happiness,but it doesn’t always make you maybe the best thing is not to worry too much about how you look,but simply try to be a interesting person .For interesting people have interesting faces,and interesting faces are almost always attractive.根据短文内容，判断正（T）、误（F）wants to be attractive.on likes to talk to a very pretty woman.people think that handsome men are unintelligent.plain face is easily forgotten.many interesting people are also attractive.TFTTFDA recent report from Dazhou Daily says about 18% of Dazhou teenagers can have problems with their minds（内心，精神）.
