AWhen I was in medical college,I went camping with some of my friends.The season was summer;therefore,we chose to go to the seaside.After arriving there,we rented a room and left our luggage there.We finished lunch and then decided to rent a boat because the sea and the weather were beautiful.We started to row,but about one mile out,the weather suddenlychanged.Although the weather was not good,we didn’t want to give up.But finally my friends and I agreed that we should go back.We tried to change the boat’s direction,but as soon as we changed it,the oarlock(桨架) broke.Therefore,we were unable to turn back.We had to wait for help because we couldn’t do anything.After seeing the change of weather,we shouldn’t have continued to row,but it was too late.We regretted it.The sea changed a lot,the waves got very high,and the boat began to shake like a cradle.One of my friends started to cry;another started to vomit(呕吐).Three hours passed,but nobody came to help us.We were just praying.Fortunately,after five long hours of waiting,two big boats came to rescue us and we escaped.If they hadn’t e to get us,we would have crossed the border between Turkey and Greece because the border was very close.This is the most exciting story of my life because we could have been dead,but luck was with us and we escaped.21.What does the author mainly tell in this passage?A.A scary experience at sea.B.An exciting experience when swimming.C.The changeable weather at the seaside.D.It is dangerous to boat at sea.22.They were not able to turn back because .A.the weather was bad for them to do soB.they couldn’t change the boat’s directionC.they couldn’t row the boatD.they didn’t know which direction to go in23.What they regretted was that when the weather changed.A.they went camping at the seasideB.they went on rowingC.the waves got very highD.they started too lateBI was hungry because after a full day of exploring the German town,I hadn’t eaten anything more than a pizza.I’m fortable travelling through a country where I don’t speak the language,but I would almost rather go hungry than sit in a restaurant eating alone.After wandering around the town for another half an hour,I finally chose an Italian restaurant that seemed friendly enough.I know I should have gone for more traditional German food,but the idea of a plate of Italian noodles for only six euros was too much to pass up.So I nervously entered.As I stood there,I noticed all the happy families and friends eating together.The hostess found a small table for me next to the front entrance.“Great,”Ithought,“now people can look at this friendless traveller as they enter.”Then I started to wonder how many of the customers might mistake me for the hostess and how much this would interrupt(打断) my meal.Then a woman,whose name is now lost to memory,invited me to have dinner with her and her family.I couldn’t believe it!This was the German friendliness I had read about.I walked to their table.I can be quite shy when talking to new people.I also started to wonder how this would work.Do I have to talk to them the whole time?Do they even know English?The meal began awkwardly.The woman’s two children mostly stared at me.Fortunately the parents spoke enough English and I knew a little German.I came into this restaurant afraid of eating alone and I ended up conquering my shyness.Separate bills came for each of us;we paid and went our own ways.The family probably ended up discussing their day while I just walked back to my hotel with a smile on my face.24.The author chose an Italian restaurant instead of a German one probably because .A.the author didn’t like German foodB.the food in the Italian restaurant was cheapC.the Italian restaurant was popular in the townD.the German restaurants in the town were closed25.When invited to have dinner with the family,the author was .A.happy26.We can conclude from the passage that the author .A.couldn’t speak any GermanB.was outgoing and enjoyed talking to peopleC.didn’t like to travel in a foreign countryD.had an enjoyable dinner with the family27.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?A.To share her experience in Germany.B.To encourage readers to travel in Germany.C.To explain why Germans are friendly.D.To express thanks to the German family.COceanNoisePollutionSome scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.The noise that affects sea creatures es from a number of human activities.It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions,oceandrilling,and ship engines.Such noises are added to natural sounds.These sounds include the breaking of ice fields,underwaterearthquakes,and sounds made by animals themselves.Decibels(分贝)measured in water are different from those measured on land.A noise of 120 decibels on land causes pain to human ears.Inwater,a decibel level of 195 would have the same effect.Some scientists have proposed setting a noise limit of 120 decibels in oceans.They have observed that noises above that level can frighten and confuse whales.A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals.The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing.This seriously affected the whales’ability to exchange information and find their way.Some of the whales even died.The explosions had caused their ears to bleed(流血) and bee infected(感染).Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to a limit of 120 decibels.They say such a limit is a greater danger than they believed.They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.28.According to the passage,which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?A.The sound of a car.B.The sound of voices.C.Man-made noise pollution.D.The sound of steps.29.According to the passage,natural sounds include all of the following EXCEPT .A.sounds made by animals themselvesB.ocean drillingC.underwater earthquakesD.the breaking of ice fields30.Which of the following is TRUE of whales?A.They won’t be confused by noises.B.They are deaf to noises.C.Their ability to reproduce will be lowered by high-level noises.D.Their hearing will be damaged by high-level noises.31.According to the passage,what will scientists most probably do in the future?A.They will work hard to reduce land noise pollution.B.They will protect animals from harmful noises.C.They will try to set a limit of 120 decibels.D.They will study the effect of ocean noise pollution.DA young emperor penguin(帝企鹅) won’t be getting a free ride all the way back to its Antarctic home,but the bird’s human friends in New Zealand will help it to get a little closer.The penguin is recovering well at Wellington Zoo,where it had a medical procedure on Monday to wash out much of the beach sand it had swallowed apparently mistaking it for snow.It may need a few months to recover,but wildlife officials have been trying to figure out how the 3-foot-tall bird will get home.Transporting it to Antarctica is near-impossible in the southern winter,and there are fears that the penguin may have acquired infections(传染病)in the warmer New Zealand environment that could spread to other penguins.On Wednesday,a group headed by the Department of Conservation decided officials will help the penguin get part of the way home by releasing it into the Southern Ocean,southeast of New Zealand-and letting it swim the rest of the way.“The reason for not returning the penguin directly to Antarctica is that emperor penguins of this age are usually found north of Antarctica on pack ice and in the open ocean,”the department’s biodiversity spokesman Peter Simpson said.The bird is estimated to be about two and a half years old,a juvenile(幼雏)in a species that reaches breeding age at around four or five.It will be released on thenorthern edge of the region where young emperor penguins are known tolive.Simpson said he was unsure how far the penguin would have to swim before reaching its final destination.The logistics for the trip haven’t been set and the penguin won’t be released until it has recovered,which could be months.Untilthen,it will remain at the zoo.“The bird is isolated in an air-conditioned room filled with large blocks of ice,”said zoo spokeswoman,Kate Baker.32.What is the passage mainly about?A.The warm environment of New Zealand.B.Transporting an emperor penguin directly home.C.An emperor penguin found in New Zealand.D.The group that saved an emperor penguin.33.What can we learn from the second and third paragraphs?A.The penguin will have a medical examination.B.The penguin might be transported home.C.The penguin is now in good health.D.The penguin ate sand instead of snow by mistake.34.According to the passage,Peter Simpson .A.is an official working at Wellington ZooB.is the spokesman of the Department of ConservationC.is the head of the Department of ConservationD.knows exactly the distance the penguin has to swim home35.The underlined word “logistics”in the passage means .A.practical arrangementsB.designed symbolsC.skilled expertsD.strong
