A
He was the baby with no name. Found and taken from the north Atlantic 6 days
after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, his tiny body so moved the salvage (救
援) workers that they called him “our baby.” In their home port of Halifax, Nova
Scotia, people collected money for a headstone in front of the baby's grave (墓),
carved with the words: “To the memory of an unknown child.” He has rested there
ever since.
But history has a way of uncovering its secrets. On Nov. 5, this year, three
members of a family from Finland arrived at Halifax and laid fresh flowers at the
grave. “This is our baby,” says Magda Schleifer, 68, a banker. She grew up hearing

stories about a great-aunt named Maria Panula,42, who had sailed on the Titanic for
America to be reunited with her husband. According to the information Mrs. Schleifer
had gathered, Panula gave up her seat on a lifeboat to search for her five children
-- including a 13-month-old boy named Eino from whom she had become separated during
the final minutes of the crossing. thought they were all lost in the sea,says
Schleifer.
Now, using teeth and bone pieces taken from the baby's grave, scientists have
compared the
DNA from the Unknown Child with those collected from members of five families who
lost relatives on the Titanic and never recovered the bodies. The result of the test
points only to one possible person: young Eino. Now, the family sees: no need for
a new grave.

56. The baby travelled on the Titanic with his___________.
A. mother B. parents C. aunt
57. What is probably the boy's last name?
A. Schleiferi
Panula.
58. Some members of the family went to Halifax and put flowers at the child's grave
on Nov. 5__.


59. This text is mainly about how______________.
A. the unknown baby's body was taken from the north Atlantic
B. the unknown baby was buried in Halifax, Nova Scotia
C. people found out who the unknown baby was
D. people took care of the unknown baby for 90 years

Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year
falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants
to survive (存活)if the rain is
spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of
the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.
Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and

weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across
the desert. Bit by bit, the
dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most
of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.
There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the
southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick
mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries,
the water dried up. Wind, sand , rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining
rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing –-very, very slowly
---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.
Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and
insects that :have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor
may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening,
the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert
once again becomes quiet and lonely.
60. Many plants may survive in deserts when__________________.
A. the rain is spread out in a year B. the rain falls only
in a few weeks
C. there is little rain in a year D. it is dry all the
year round
61. Sand dunes are formed when___________________.
A. sand piles up gradually B. there is plenty of
rain in a year
C. the sea has dried up over the years D. pieces of rock get
smaller
62. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert
there is____________.
A. too much sand
C. nothing except sand


B. more sand than before
D. something else besides sand
B. life exists in
D. rocks are worn away
63 It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.
A. there is no rainfall throughout the year
C. all sand dunes are a few feet high

Whoever has made a voyage up the Hudson River must remember the Catskill
Mountains. They are a branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to
the west rising up to a noble height and towering over the surrounding country. When
the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue and purple, and print their
beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, gray
steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the setting
sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory (华丽的皇冠).
At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from
a village.
In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was
sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple,
good-natured fellow by the name of Rip Van Winkle.
第 10 页 共 16 页

Rip's great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor.
It could not be from lack of diligence (勤劳), for he could sit all day on a wet
rock and fish without saying a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single
bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking through woods and fields
to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor, even
in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such
little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip
was ready to attend to everybody's business but his own.
If left to himself, he would have whistled ( 吹口哨) life away in perfect
satisfaction; but his wife was always mad at him for his idleness (懒散). Morning,
noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape
to the outside of the house -- the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked
husband.
68. Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?
A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.
B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.
C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.
D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.
69. The hero of the story is probably_____________.
A. hard-working and likes all kinds of work
B. idle and hates all kinds of jobs
C. simple, idle but very dutiful
D. gentle, helpful but a little idle
70. The underlined words
a man who
.
A. likes hunting
C. loves his wife
B. is afraid of hens
D. is afraid of his wife
71. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Catskill Mountains.
C. Rip Van Winkle.
E
Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport.”
Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching,
and only those few who take part realize the cruelty and destruction.
第 11 页 共 16 页
B. A Mountain Village.
D. A Dutiful Husband.

The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop
proper judgments through independent thought are led along way away by their gunning
parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting
as good for their health and guncarrying as a way of putting redder blood in the
veins (血管). They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase
and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach
them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate (刺
激) a desire to own a gun. Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because
of the loss of wildland habitat (栖息地). Habitat loss will continue with our
increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There
doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved.
Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people
do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or
nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting
to the great majority of people.
Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do
and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless
and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as
character- building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the
agony of dying can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying
and killing improve human-character, then perhaps we should encourage war.
72. According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting
because___________.
A. they have little knowledge of it B. it helps to build
human character
C. it is too costly to stop killing wildlife D. they want to keep
wildlife under control
73. The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means______________.
A. form
sadness
74. According to the text, the films children watch at school actually__________.
A. teach them how to deal with guns safely
character-building
C. describe hunting as an exercise
have guns of
D. encourage them to

B. praise hunting as
B. Condition C. pain D.

75. It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to_____________.

A. blame the majority of people B. worry about the existence of wildlife
C. be in favour of war D. be in support of character-building
