26、   At night, when you go to bed, many birds and animals are getting ready to sleep too. But others are just waking up and beginning their day, because they are nocturnal: they sleep during the day and then come out at night. Have you ever heard an owl hooting in the night? Owls are nocturnal. They spend the night looking for rabbits, mice and other small animals to eat. Bats, pangolins, moths, spiders, and many kinds of frogs come out at night to look for food too. And even in the oceans, some fish sleep at night while others, like sharks, become active.

So why do these animals live so differently? For some of them, it is safer, because there are fewer predators that want to catch and eat them. For others, it is easier to find food because the animals that they eat come out at night too. Some animals are nocturnal because the temperature is better for them at night. Slugs and snails, for example, can easily dry out in the daytime sun, so they hide in dark wet places and wait for the night. Many desert animals are also nocturnal to avoid the heat of the day.

Many nocturnal animals have special senses to help them to move around, stay safe and find food at night. Some have very big eyes that let in a lot of light, so that they can see in the dark. Some, like the fox, can smell things very well or, like owls, have an amazing sense of hearing. And some use echolocation to help them move around and find food in the dark. They make special noises that echo back, telling them what is nearby What other animals do you know about that are nocturnal? Try and find out about one.

Why does it come out at night, and what special senses does it have for night-living?

【1】Why do owls come out at night?

A.To stay safe. B.To hunt for food.

【2】What's the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A.Why some animals are active at night. B.When different animals come out.

C.Where food is easy to find at night. D.How desert animals get away from heat

【3】Where can slugs and snails live in the daytime?

A.On the dry rocks. B.In the water.

C.On the rooftop. D.In the wet grass.

【4】What is the purpose of the text?

A.To voice opinions. B.To offer advice.

C.To show some facts. D.To spread love and joy.

27、The principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately. In the past, people preferred a hand­written application letter. However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet. You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs. Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.

The importance of body language is often mentioned, but doesn't always get the attention it deserves. After all, before a word has even been spoken, your body language will have already given people their first impression of you. Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information. Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident. It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not. Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person, someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time. The members of the application committee will ask you questions, but your answers won't only be oral. The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it! Body language will determine first if it “clicks”， and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds. Everybody uses body language, but it takes place mostly at a subconscious (下意识的) level. Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.

【1】What kind of people is the text mainly meant for?

A．Interviewers B．Job­hunting people

C．Employers   D．Lay­off workers

【2】We can learn from the first paragraph that________.

A．hand­written letters are not used in finding a job

D．the Internet is of significance in applying for a job

【3】Using body language well in a job interview will probably ________.

A．get rid of the interviewers' prejudice

B．determine what position one will get

C．increase the possibility to get the wanted job

D．help one remove nervousness

【4】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Those using body language are usually confident.

C．Body language is a mirror to reflect one's personality.

D．People enjoying jokes are preferred in a job interview.

28、   Koalas in Australia could disappear from New South Wales state (NSW) by 2050, unless the state government immediately acts to protect them.

Koalas are among Australia’s most beloved animals. A report released on Tuesday said that land clearing for agriculture, urban ( 城市) development, mining and forestry are threatening the koalas’ survival in NSW, since such operations destroy koala habitat. Koalas live in eucalyptus（桉树）forests, where the trees provide shelter and food for the koalas. But, the state’s recent fire season, aided by severely dry weather this year, was unusually long and proved disastrous for koalas. The research found that about 25 percent of koala habitat across the state was destroyed. The report also said that, in some parts of NSW, fires destroyed as much as 81 percent of the habitat. “The evidence could not be more disturbing,” the report reads, adding, “The government’s action on the report’s suggested measures is the only way our children’s grandchildren can see a koala in the wild in NSW.”

The report advises that the government take 42 actions to deal with the problem. One calls  for immediately counting koalas in NSW. Another advises that the government place the protection of the animals above urban development. And it calls for more money to support the efforts to save the environment.

A spokesperson for NSW said the government would comment on the report after a period of consideration. The official added that the state had already provided more than $30 million to protect koalas.

【1】What is paragraph 2 mainly about?

A.The loss of Koalas’ habitat. B.The causes of fire season.

C.The effect of climate change. D.The measures of state government.

【2】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “aided” ?

A.Weakened. B.Caused. C.Worsened. D.Improved.

【3】What is the state government’s attitude towards the report?

A.Supportive. B.Uncaring. C.Serious. D.Negative.

29、Leonardo Da Vinci is most famous for his paintings, especially the Mona Lisa. The woman in the painting is best-known for her mysterious smile. But who was she?

Experts say she was Lisa di Antonio Maria di Noldo Gherardini, the third wife of a nobleman (贵族) from Florence. He invited Leonardo to paint the portrait (肖像画). Leonardo started to work on this painting in 1503. At this time "Mona Lisa" was 24 years old. He worked on the portrait for the next four years. However, Leonardo didn’t sell the painting; and when he left Florence in 1507, he kept it for himself. Why? Several believe it was because he had never managed to finish it on time, while others say he had fallen in love with the painting.

The Mona Lisa spent the next few hundred years traveling around the world. Leonardo finally sold the painting to King Francis I of France, who put it in his castle at Amboise. After the French revolution, the painting ended up in the Louvre. Napoleon took it away from there and hung it up in his bedroom. When Napoleon was driven away, the Mona Lisa returned once again to the Louvre. On 21 st August, 1911, the Mona Lisa was stolen by an Italian thief, who took the painting to Italy. It appeared two years later in Florence and was taken back to the Louvre. An acid (酸) attack in 1956 damaged the lower half of the painting, and the repair work took several years. In the 60s and 70s, the Mona Lisa was on show in New York, Tokyo and Moscow.

Today the painting is behind bullet-proof glass in the Louvre once again, and is no longer allowed to travel. Her journeys are over.

【1】What can we learn about the Mona Lisa from paragraph two?

A．Leonardo Da Vinci finished the painting when he was 24 years old.

B．Leonardo Da Vinci kept the painting for himself due to his love for it.

C．It was probably a portrait of the young wife of a nobleman from Florence.

D．A young woman from Florence asked Leonardo Da Vinci to draw the painting.

【2】What happened to the Mona Lisa after Leonardo finally sold it?

A．It was sent to the Louvre immediately after that.

B．An acid attack took people two years to repair it.

C．Napoleon once took it from the Louvre for himself.

D．It has been on show around the world since the 1960s.

【3】The passage is probably taken from ________.

A．a magazine

B．a news report

C．a travel brochure

D．a science book

31、Directions: Complete the passage with the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Most people assume that life in the rat race is bad for your health.But reversing the traditional gender roles is a stressful 【1】, according to the latest research by American scientists. By giving up their jobs in order to become house husbands, men 【2】their risk of heart attacks by as much as 82%, according to research based on a 10-year study of 2,500 people in Boston, USA.

According to Dr Eaker, the key to the problem is that some man became 【3】 about performing a role not 【4】 assigned to them by society. Men who stay at home tend not to have the same levels of support from fiends and family as women who do the same. Jack O’Sullivan, of the Father’s Direct group, was quoted as saying: “Society expects the main carer to be a woman, and society is 【5】 around that. Daycare is called mother and toddle groups and some men feel 【6】 about belong to those groups.”

Professor Gary Cooper, a psychologist at the University of Manchester, said many men tend to 【7】 the task of caring for a family. He said:“Most men think being a house husband involves putting on a bit of washing , taking the kids to school and then putting their feet up with a cup of coffee. They are crazy. Most men are not used to performing a 【8】of activities at the same time-the kind of multi-tasking which is second 【9】 to most of women.”

It is estimated that men have taken over the main homemaker’s role in one seven homes, as increasing numbers of women become the main breadwinner. The study also found that women in high-powered jobs were more likely to develop heart disease than those in more 【10】 positions.
