A Sam and Joe were astronauts(宇航员). There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced astronauts knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive. Sam and Joe, however, thought it would be exciting though a little dangerous. We're the best men for the job, they said to the boss. There may be problems, but we can find the answers. They're the last people I'd trust, thought the boss. But all the other astronauts have refused to go. Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs. When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again no answer came.

B Nowadays more than half of ail Americans eat more than half of their meals away from home. This new American way of eating has given rise to the rapid development of the fast food industry. The reason is that they are fast, filling, cheap, tasty and attractive to people. However, many of these fast foods have been attacked by scientists. The main problem with most fast food meals is that they're not nutritionally balanced. Those of chicken or beef usually contain more than enough protein for a person in one meal. They tend to supply you with too much fat and sugar but too little vitamins and iron. Pizza, a well-balanced fast food, however, is especially high in salt content, a factor for developing high blood pressure. And potatoes are a nutritious food, but when fried in fat they also become a high-fat food. Fast food meals also sadly lack of vegetables and fruit. Thus it is good to eat vegetables and fruit at your other meals on the days when you eat fast food.

A.fast food is very cheap

C No other capital in Europe has more charm(迷人) or a richer past than Vienna, the capital of Austria. Green woods, mountains, and the large Danube River give the city beautiful surroundings. Vienna has more than 1 600 000 people. Almost one-fourth of all the people of Austria live there. Vienna is sometimes called "a city without a country". It is so big that it does not seem to be suitable (适合的) in so small a country as Austria. Vienna was a center of science and art and music, too. Many great musicians lived there. It had the name of being a city of spirits, partly because of the dance music and operettas(轻歌剧) written by Viennese musicians. After World War I, Vienna found itself the capital of a rather poor country of less than 7 000 000 people. World War Ⅱ made Vienna even worse than it was before. Since 1955, however, Vienna has been fast regaining its past greatness.

D Recent fires have destroyed much of Indonesian forests and pose the latest threat to the survival of the endangered orangutans. Thirty orangutans fleeing their burning forest home have been killed by villagers, who see the animals as crop raiders(掠夺者). Orangutan mothers have been killed so that their young can be captured and sold into the illegal(非法的)wildlife pet trade. Orangutan experts continue to receive orangutan infants whose mothers have been killed while searching for food in plantations and fields. The fires, caused by drought and coupled with fire-setting methods to clear forests, have destroyed more than two million acres. When fire gets into the rain forests' layer of dry peat(泥炭), it can bum slowly off and on for months or years after the original fire. These fires continue until heavy rainfall soaks the peat through and through. Orangutans once numbered in the hundreds of thousands, but their population has dropped to roughly 25 000 due to fire, the destruction of forests from falling trees for timber and agriculture, and losses linked to the live-animal trade. Before the fires, only two percent of the orangutans' original habitat remained, and now, their habitat has become even smaller.
1. Which of the following is NOT a reason for the decreasing of orangutans in Indonesia?
A.The forests have been burned to get land for agriculture.
B.Most of orangutans' forests have been destroyed.
C.Mother orangutans have been sold into the live-animal business.
D.Trees have been cut down for human profits.

2. According to this passage, fires in Indonesia ______.
A.will not end until it starts to rain
B.will be eventually put out by human efforts
C.will die out in a few days when the trade winds blow
D.can only stop when the peat is totally wet
A B C D
D
解析:由文章第二段“These fires continue until heavy rainfall soaks the peat through and through”可以得知必须等到泥炭湿透后火才会熄。
E France, England, and Spain were the three European powers in the New World. Each had come for different purposes. The first Spanish came to the New World searching for wealth, power, and glory. There they explored(探险) and conquered much of North, South, and Central America. The English, on the other hand, generally came to build new land. They built settlements(殖民地) along the coast. Different from both Spain and England, the French were less interested in conquest(征服) than in trade. Their first settlements were trading posts(贸易区) where they sold cloth, knives, and guns to the Indians for the skin of the beaver(河狸). Like the Spanish, they seldom brought their families. Unlike the English, they didn't fight against the Indians for the possession of the land. Because there were far fewer French than English in America, they did not threaten the India way of life as the English did.
1. "The New World" refers to ______.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Cross, I'm Jane, a first year student of Beijing University. I'm twenty years old. I'm from Baoding City, Hebei Province. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of reading your advertisement in the newspaper. It really attracted me because I had been looking for an odd job during my university vacation to pay for the next term's tuition. I am glad to tell you I like children very much, just as my mother does. She has worked in a kindergarten for about 20 years. I have a younger brother. I always take care of him. My father is a good cook. I learned to cook from him. When my mother wasn't in I also had to cook, and the whole family enjoyed eating the dishes I made. Could you please tell me whether you have a spare room for me to live in and how much I will get for the job? I'm eager to hear from you.
