四.閱讀理解。(共15小題，每小題2分，滿分30分)
A
Many animal and plant species have become extinct(滅絕的)and many more are in critical danger. Finding ways to protect the earth's wildlife and conserve(保護(hù))the natural world they inhabit(居住)is now more important than ever.
Dodo
The Dodo is a classic example of how human caused damage to the earth's biology. The flightless Dodo was native to the Island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. It lived off fruit fallen from the island's trees and lived unthreatened until humans arrived in 1505. The easily controlled bird became a source of food for sailors and was attacked by animals introduced to the island by humans such as pigs, monkeys and rats. The population of Dodos rapidly decreased and last one was killed in 1681.
Rhinos
The Rhino (犀牛) horn is a highly priced item for Asian medicine. This has led to the animal being hunted in its natural habitat. Once widespread in Africa and Eurasia, most rhinos now live in protected natural parks and reserves(保護(hù)區(qū)). Their numbers have rapidly decreased in the last 50 years, and the animals remain under constant threat from poachers(偷獵者) .
The Giant Panda
The future of the World Wildlife Fund's symbol is far from certain. As few as 1000 remain in the wild. The Chinese government has set up 33 panda reserves to protect these beautiful animals and mad e poaching them punishable with 20 years in prison. However, The panda's distinct black and white patched coat fetches a high price on the black market and determined poachers still pose(造成)one of the most serious threats to the animals continued existence.
Whales
The International Whaling Commission is fighting to ensure the survival of the whale species. Despite the fact that one-third the world's oceans have been declared whale sanctuaries(保護(hù)區(qū)), 7 out of 13 whale species remain endangered. Hunted for their rich supply of oil, their numbers have decreased to just 300. Collisions(碰撞)with ships, poisonous pollution and being caught in fishing nets are other major causes of whale deaths.
Tigers
The last 100 years has seen a 95% reduction in the numbers of remaining tigers to between 5000 and 7000 and the Bali, Javan, and Caspian tigers are already extinct. The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing, with only 20 to 30 still alive. Like the Rhino horn, tigers’ bones and organs are sought after for traditional Chinese medicines. These items are traded illegally along with tiger skins.
36. It implies that _______.
A.The Dodo lacked the ability to protect itself from other animals
B.Sailors to the Island of Mauritius lived mainly on the Dodo
C.The Dodo used to be a strong animal that liked fighting
D. The Dodo, pigs, monkeys and rats were the natives to the Island of Mauritius
37. Which group of the following animals has already ceased to exist according to the text?
A.The Dodo, Rhino and Giant Panda.
B.The Rhino, Whale and South China Tiger.
C.The Rhino, Panda, Whale and Tiger.
D.The Dodo and the Bali, Javan, and Caspian tigers.

British newspapers are among the oldest and most famous in the world. But recently big changes have seen these traditional publications try to fit the modern world. After 221 years, The Times has changed its size to become much smaller. In fact, the paper has cut its size in half from a broadsheet to tabloid (小報(bào)).
In Britain the newspaper market is divided between t he larger broadsheets and the smaller tabloids. These terms refer to the size of the papers’ pages but there is also a clear difference in content. Broadsheets such as The Times, the Guardian and Daily Telegraph are serious papers. They cover a broad range of political, economic and international issues. Their stories are also reasonably long and use quite formal language.
Tabloids have far more stories about less serious issues such as celebrities’ (名人) love lives. Their stories are shorter and use more simple language. Tabloids often have bigger pictures. Britain’s best-selling newspaper, the Sun, is a tabloid and has a naked girl on Page Three every day.
By changing to the size of a tabloid, The Times is following in the footsteps of a less famous broadsheet paper the Independent . It changed to tabloid last year and saw its sales increase greatly. Although both papers have switched to the smaller size the content of the papers has remained the same. They are both still serious papers.
The two papers claim that people find the smaller size easier to handle when they travel to work on the bus or the train in the morning. Instead of calling the new style of their paper tabloid, the paper says its new size is “compact” (緊湊型).
46.In which year was The Times born?
A.1782 B.1785 C.1788 D.1786
47.Which of the following statements can best describe broadsheets and tabloid?
A.Broadsheets are larger in size while tabloids are smaller.
B.Tabloids are less serious than broadsheets.
C.Broadsheets contain more news than tabloids.
D.They are different in size, content and the style of language.
48. Which of the following newspapers would you read if you are interested in lives of film stars ?
A.The Sun B.The Times C.The Independent D.The Guardian
49. According to the passage we can infer the main reason for The Times' changing into the tabloid is that_____.
A.it wants to become convenient for people to carryw
B.it wants to increase its circulation (發(fā)行量)
C.it intends to copy what The Independent has done
D.it is unlikely to stay in business if it does not change
50.Which of the following statements is true according to the given information?
A.There are more tabloids than broadsheets in Britain at present.
B.After the change, there will be no differences between The Sun and The Times.
C.Although The Times has cut its size, it remains a serious paper.
D.All the papers will tend to have the same style in the future.

這是一篇生態(tài)類短文。文章介紹了五種比較典型的“已經(jīng)滅絕的和瀕臨滅絕的動(dòng)物”并探究其原因。
41.答案：B 解析：文章最后一句話提到The most famous award given out at Cannnes is the “Palme d’Or” (Golden Palm) for the best film; this is sometimes shared by multiple films in one year可以得知夏納電影節(jié)最著名的獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)“金棕櫚獎(jiǎng)”有時(shí)可由一年中的多部影片共同獲得。
42.答案：D 解析：奧斯卡獎(jiǎng)是美國(guó)最著名的獎(jiǎng)，不是法國(guó)的。
43.答案：D 解析：從第三段最后一句話Recently, a new award has been added, the San Marco Award for the best film看出最佳影片San Marco Award獎(jiǎng)是最近才增加的一個(gè)新獎(jiǎng)，所以歷史最短。
44.答案：C 解析：從第二段最后一句話The awards are called Golden and Silver Bears (as the Bear is the symbol of Berlin.)看出，柏林電影節(jié)的獎(jiǎng)名叫金熊獎(jiǎng)和銀熊獎(jiǎng)是因?yàn)樾苁前亓值南笳鳌?/p>
45.答案：A 解析：本文主要是對(duì)著名電影節(jié)以及著名電影獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)的介紹。
這是一篇新聞?lì)惗涛�。英�?guó)報(bào)紙是世界上最古老的、最著名的報(bào)紙之一。最近各大小報(bào)都在對(duì)傳統(tǒng)的出版進(jìn)行改變。報(bào)紙的大小、內(nèi)容以及語言的風(fēng)格都有所不同。
46.C 計(jì)算題。根據(jù)第一段第三句“After 217 years, The Times has changed its size to become much smaller”可得出2005—217=1788。
47.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。ABC項(xiàng)都只說明 了報(bào)紙的某一方面的改變，D項(xiàng)概括得比較全面。
48.A 推斷題。根據(jù)第三段可知。小報(bào)較多地登載一些不太 重要的事情，比如名人的愛情故事等。此段還特別提到The Sun是一種小報(bào)，它每天都刊登姑娘的裸體照。故A項(xiàng)正確。
49.B 推斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段的第一、二句“By changing to the size of a tabloid, The Times is following in the footsteps of a less famous broadsheet paper the Independent. It changed to tabloid last year and saw its sales increase greatly.”可知：泰晤士報(bào)由大報(bào)變成小報(bào)的原因是增加發(fā)行量。
50.C 判斷題。根據(jù)第倒數(shù)第二段最后兩句“Although both papers have switched to the smaller size the content of the papers has remained the same. They are both still serious papers.”可知：泰晤士報(bào)由大報(bào)變成小報(bào)之后，它仍然是份嚴(yán)肅的報(bào)紙。
參考范文：
Some people consider that some numbers will bring luck to them, such as 6, 8 and 9. So when they choose the car numbers or the telephone numbers, they would rather spend high fees getting these numbers. But I don’t think these so-called lucky numbers will bring success and fortune to people without any pains. In fact, the true success as well as fortune is the result of hard work. Therefore we should believe in ourselves and fight for the success by all mea ns.
