13. I still remember the place ______ I met her for the first time.

A.that
B.which
C.what
D.where

Ⅳ. Reading Comprehension
Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage One
Years ago, a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more, but enjoying it less. That describes the way many of us live today. We are doing more, but enjoying it less. And when that doesn't work, we get the problem. In our extremely hurried search for satisfaction, we try stuffing still more into our days, never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach.
The truth is simple; so simple it is hard to believe. Satisfaction lies with less, not with more. Yet, we pursue the myth that this thing, or that activity, will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek.
Arthur Lindman, in his very effective book, "The Harried Leisure Class," described the uselessness of pursuing more. His research focused on what people did with their leisure time. He found that as income rose, people bought more things to occupy their leisure time. But, ironically, the more things they bought, the less they valued any one of them. Carried to an extreme, he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety. That was more than twenty years ago, and his prediction seems more accurate every year.
Lindman of course, is not the first to discover this. The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago. It is better, he wrote, to have less, but enjoy it more.
If you would like to enjoy life more, I challenge you to experiment with me. How could you simplify your life? What could you drop? What could you do without? What could you stop pursuing? What few things could you concentrate on?
The more I learn, the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things. The more I give up, the more I seem to gain. But words will never convince you. You must try it for yourself.

1. Lindman wrote his book ______.

A.ten years ago
B.twenty years ago
C.more than twenty years ago
D.thousands of years ago

A B C D

[解析] 第三段最后。Arthur Lindman预言，巨大的无聊存在于极度的丰富之中。而这还是20多年前的预言，并且，他的预言越来越准确。选项D是第四段中另一本书的时间。

2. We can make our life happier if we ______.

A.get rid of useless things
B.buy more things
C.sell things we do not need
D.give up more

A B C D

[解析] 通篇都在讲我们做得越多、获得的越多，我们就越不满足。所以应当学会放弃。

3. The best title for the passage is ______.

A.Simplify Your Life
B.Enjoy Your Life
C.Smoking Less
D.Satisfaction

A B C D

[解析] 文章通过抽烟越多享受越少为引子点明主题：获得的越多，并不意味着就越满足。又以两位作者的书为观点支持，说明要放弃一些东西，使我们的生活简单一些，才能获得真正的满足。

4. Arthur Lindman wrote ______.

A.a popular novel
B.a research paper
C.Ecclesiastes
D.The Harried Leisure Class

A B C D

[解析] 第三段。第一句就明确点明Arthur Lindman写了一本很有影响的书，其书名是The Harried Leisure Class。

Passage Two
The phenomenon is becoming more and more popular that human beings have developed a closely relationship with the most dangerous of animals—Kevin Richardson treats lions like kitty cats, Andre Hartman has a special bond with Great White Sharks and now there is 79-year old Werner Freund who has spent the last 40 years of his life in the company of wolves.
While details about how and why the former paratrooper (伞兵) became attached to these beautiful wild animals are a little summary, he has been tending them in his 25-acre Wolves park located in the German province of Saarland, since 1972. While he currently has a group of 29, over the years he has raised almost 70 wolves belonging to all breeds (种属) ranging from Siberian to Arctic, Canadian, European and even, Mongolian. The wolves treat Werner as if he were one of their own. They nuzzle (依偎) against him, play with him and are generally sheeplike when he is around, just like they would be around a head wolf!
This, however, is not accidental—It is a position that Werner works on establishing and maintaining with a simple act, every single day—Whenever it's feeding time, he calls his wolves to come for the raw meat by howling. As the hungry animals rush to get their food, they are always met with this scene—Werner sinking his teeth into the raw meat first. While this may sound a little rude, that is how the position of hierarchy (等级) is established in the animal world. It is always the leader male that gets the first meal and only when he signals, can the rest join in. Werner's wolves know this rule quite well and never challenge his authority.
While wolves, the largest member of the dog family, are believed to be dangerous, they rarely attack humans. Werner says that in reality, they are beautiful gentle souls, whose reputation has been tarnished, by fairy tales like Red Riding Hood!

1. We can know ______ from the first paragraph.

A.all lions like Kevin Richardson
B.Great White Sharks are dangerous animals
C.only some specialists can live animals together
D.Werner Freund accompanies wolves day and night

A B C D

2. What's the main idea of this passage? ______

A.Human beings can get along well with animals.
B.Werner Freund and his famous Wolves park.
C.Werner Freund treats his wolves like friends.
D.Ex-paratrooper shares special bond with wolves.

A B C D

[解析] 文章第一段第一句“The phenomenon is becoming more and more popular that human beings have developed a closely relationship with the dangerous of animals...”是文章的主旨句，通过该句我们可知文章的主旨是讲人类和危险的动物之间可以相处得很好，故选A。

3. We can infer that the wolves treat Werner Freund ______.

A.peacefully
B.respectfully
C.fearfully
D.fondly

A B C D

[解析] 根据第二段最后两句话中的“...one of their own...generally sheeplike...just like they would be around a head wolf!”可知，群狼把Werner Freund当成狼群的首领看待，因此它们对待他是充满敬意的，故选B。

4. When Werner Freund leeds his wolves, ______.

A.he whistles loudly
B.he bites the meat firstly
C.wolves challenge his authority
D.wolves eat all their foods

A B C D

[解析] 根据第三段第二句“...Werner sinking his teeth into the raw meat first.”可知，Werner总是第一个咬住生肉，故选B。

The flying fox is not a fox at all. It is an extra large bat that has got a fox's head, and that feeds on fruit instead of insects.

Sometimes several hundreds of them occupy (占据) a single tree. As they return to the tree toward sunrise, they quarrel among themselves and fight for the best places until long after daylight.
Flying foxes have babies once a year, giving birth to only one at a time. At first the mother has to carry the baby on her breast wherever she goes. Later she leaves it hanging up, and brings back food for it to eat. Sometimes a baby falls down to the ground and squeaks (尖叫) for help. Then the older ones swoop (俯冲) down and try to pick it up.

Passage Five
What's the best way to protect a tender, green seedling from the hungry stomach of deer? Give the seedling bad breath!
The same chemical that gives people bad breath after they have eaten garlic can save small trees from being eaten by animals.
A kind of chemical selenium (硒), which is also found in garlic, is planted in the soil near a young tree. The tree's roots absorb the selenium which is then carried to the leaves.
From there the selenium is used to form a chemical called dimethyl selenide (乙烷硒化物)—the same chemical made in the human mouth after eating garlic. As deer wander around looking for food, they smell the seedlings' leaves and leave the plants alone.
The selenium is important. Why? Because each year deer eat millions of dollars' worth of trees farm seedlings.
So far, selenium has been tested only on Douglas fir (枞树) seedlings, but researchers think they could protect fruit trees and garden plants, too.
