31、根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容,回答31-35題。 Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergence alert (警報(bào)) system using text messages delivered to cell phones. Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people .The wireless industry's trade association, CTIA, estimates(估計(jì)) more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month. The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that re-quires improvement to the nation's emergency alert system.The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alert the public about emergencies. "The ability to deliver accurate and timely warnings and alerts through cell phones and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during ,disasters and other emergencies," FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan .Participation in the alert system by carriers telecommunications companies is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry. The program would be optional for cell phone users.They also may not be charged for receiving alerts. There would be three different types of messages, according to the rules. The first would be a national alert from the president, likely involving a terrorist attack or natural disaster.The second would involve "approaching threats," which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings.The third would be reserved for child abduction (綁架) emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts. The service could be in place by 2010.

Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer.He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk.He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up--how to catch wild elephants. Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle.After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city.But Parbati never got used to being there and many years lat-er she went back to her old fife."Life in the city is too dull.Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase," she says. But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun."My work," she says, "is to rescue man from elephants, and to keep elephants safe from man. " And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land.It is now fighting back.Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill. The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion.A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. "Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them.They are also more loyal than humans." She said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal.An elephant princess indeed! For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to__________.

The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green.It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside.But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the |fit-and-miss pineapples we had known.In no time, the De]Monte Cold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world' s best-selling pineapple variety ,and delivering natural levels of sweetness .in the mouth, up until then only found in tinned pineapple .In nutrition (營(yíng)養(yǎng))it was all good news too.This nice tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C (維生素C)than the old green variety.Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins, but also good against some diseases.People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit.The new type of pineapple was selling fast, and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater. Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep market to itself .But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples. Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those companies argued successfully that Del Monte' s attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out the market. We learn from the text that the new type of pineapple is A.green outside and sweet inside B.good-looking outside and soft inside C.yellowy-gold outside and hard inside D.a(chǎn) little soft outside and sweet inside
40、 Why was the new type of pineapple selling well? A.Because it was rich in nutrition and tasted nice. B.Because it was less sweet and good for health. C.Because it was developed by Del Monte. D.Because it was used as medicine.

43、根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容,回答43-47題。 1.Why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east? It can take five hours to go west-east from New York(NY) to London but seven hours to travel east-west from London to NY.The reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon known as the jet(噴射) stream.The jet stream is a very high altitude wind which always blows from the west to the east across the Atlantic.The planes moving at a constant air speed thus go faster in the west-east direction when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite direction. 2.What would happen if the gravity on Earth was suddenly turned off? Supposing we could magically turn off gravity .Would buildings and other structures(建筑物)float away? What happened would depend on how strongly the things were attached to the Earth.The Earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hours.If you turn something around your head on a string( 細(xì)繩), it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string.Then it flies off in a straight line. Switching off' gravity would be like letting go of the string.Things not attached to the Earth would fly off in a straight line.People in buildings would suddenly shoot up-wards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling.Most things outside would fly off into space. What information can we get from the first passage? A.It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly B.Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind C.It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY D.The jet stream always blows from the east to the west across the Atlantic
44、 The underlined word "shoot" in the 2nd passage probably means A.send for B.move quickly C.come out D.grow quickly
45、 It can be inferred that without gravity A.buildings and other structures would float away B.trees and buildings would not easily fly off C.something around your head would not fly away D.everything outside buildings would fly off into space
46、 Where can we most probably read this text? A.In a research paper B.In a short story C.In a travel magazine D.In a student's book

"Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day.Get some paint brushes.We are fixing to paint." She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work.We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard.There on the road in front of my house, we painted bit stripes (條紋) of colors across the pavement (人行道 ).

I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now!" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute ,angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art. "Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement. Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone.I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.

43、根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容,回答43-47題。 1.Why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east? It can take five hours to go west-east from New York(NY) to London but seven hours to travel east-west from London to NY.The reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon known as the jet(噴射) stream.The jet stream is a very high altitude wind which always blows from the west to the east across the Atlantic.The planes moving at a constant air speed thus go faster in the west-east direction when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite direction. 2.What would happen if the gravity on Earth was suddenly turned off? Supposing we could magically turn off gravity .Would buildings and other structures(建筑物)float away? What happened would depend on how strongly the things were attached to the Earth.The Earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hours.If you turn something around your head on a string( 細(xì)繩), it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string.Then it flies off in a straight line. Switching off' gravity would be like letting go of the string.Things not attached to the Earth would fly off in a straight line.People in buildings would suddenly shoot up-wards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling.Most things outside would fly off into space. What information can we get from the first passage? A.It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly B.Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind C.It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY D.The jet stream always blows from the east to the west across the Atlantic

47、根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容,回答題。 When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground.I was living in Conyers, Georgia, the summer it all happened.I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade.Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way .It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement.As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls ,and old clothes.I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can.It was paint.I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green. "Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day.Get some paint brushes.We are fixing to paint." She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work.We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard.There on the road in front of my house, we painted bit stripes (條紋) of colors across the pavement (人行道 ). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow.It was fantastic! The sun was starting to sink.I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car .It was my mother.I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece.The car pulled slowly into the drive-way and from the look on my mother's face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble. My mother shut the car door and walked towards me.Her eyes glaring, she shouted, "What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now!" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute ,angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art. "Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement. Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone.I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.
