题型:不详难度:来源:
My friend, Victor, is a zoo keeper in the National Zoo. His work is very interesting but it is hard. Sometimes it is dangerous, too. Every morning the zoo keepers have to get up at five to prepare the food for the animals. Each kind of animal is given special food. For example, the lions must be given meat; the deer must be given grass and leaves; and the parrots must be given fruit and nuts. Sometimes some animals won"t let the others eat their food. If this happens,  each of them must be fed separately(分离地) .
Every morning each cage must be washed by the zoo keepers. This can be dangerous, especially with lions and tigers. To make the work easier, the animals are locked in the sleeping compartments (隔间) while the cages are being washed. When the animals are sick, the zoo keepers must look after them. Each sick animal is kept in a separate cage and given medicine. Sometimes they must be given injections. It is not easy to inject(打针) a sick lion!
All the keepers live near the zoo. Each of them has a small house. There he lives with his family. They do not have holidays on Sundays and public holidays. Instead, each of them has a day off during the week. Each keeper has a holiday on a different day from that of the other keepers.
The most important job of the keepers is to look after the safety of the visitors. People must be prevented from doing dangerous things. Many people have been injured because they did careless things, like putting their hands into the lion"s cage.

The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转) of the earth. At the equator(赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted(倾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.
小题1:How many meanings does the word “day” have?
___________________________________________________________________
小题2:At the equator(赤道),are day and night sometimes the same length?
___________________________________________________________________
小题3:By what of the earth is a place moved from day into night and from night into day over and over?

You either have it, or you don’t-a sense of direction. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:
If you are using a map, turn it so that it relates to(与……有联系) the way you are facing.
If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree-something easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
Simplify(简化) the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or wells in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as towerblocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you will never get lost again!
小题1:Children have the ability to find the way around when they are ______ years old.
A.5B.6 C.7D.8
小题2:Which of the following things cannot be used as landmarks?
A.Tower blocks.B.Hills.C.Wells.D.Bikes.
小题3:What does the underlined word “emphasize” mean in the passage?
A.To give special importance to something.
B.To express thanks for somebody.
C.To understand or become aware of a fact.
D.To admire somebody.
小题4:Scientists believe that __________.
A.some babies are born with a sense of direction
B.people learn a sense of direction as they grow older
C.people never lose their sense of direction
D.everybody has a sense of direction from birth
小题5:What may be the best title of the passage?
A.A research on direction.
B.A sense of direction.
C.People’s ability of finding the way.
D.Scientists’ research on skills.

“I can’t believe what I’m hearing!” I thought to myself. Jeff was the last candidate (候选人)for president of Student Council. My best friend Tony came to me and said, “I’m sorry, Mike. I really thought you should be  1 .”
Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the dining room. I offered him a   2 “Congratulations” and walked to my usual table. To my surprise, Jeff put his plate beside mine.
“I’m, er…I’m just wondering if you would …consider coming to work on my team,” he said  3 . “You are really smart, and you would be a great manager.”
“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling unsure.
“Well, if you change your mind, we are meeting tomorrow,” he said before moving to another table.
All that night, I thought about the offer from Jeff. Maybe being a part of the election process(选举过程) would give me a   4  to make important changes at our school. I decided to join them.
My first goal was to   5  an attractive advertisement. Within a few days, we designed a poster with Jeff’s pictures showing him in a number of activities. No one could walk through any hallway  6  passing Jeff’s smiling face.
My next step was to   7  which new activities students would like to have at our school. Many of them wanted a chess club and a volleyball team.
With the information I had collected, Jeff met with the headmaster. The headmaster   8 to add these activities to our school program.
An eighth grader said, “It’ll be like attending a new school with Jeff as president.”
Hearing these words made my heart filled with   9 . I had wanted to become president of Student Council to make a difference. I achieved that and more by working as a member of Jeff’s team. He became the most popular candidate and I was large part of his   10 . The fact that it has made a difference in other people’s lives is the real prize. What a great feeling!

The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know how   1  you have worked to prepare for this test,” he said. “And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to offer a B to those who   2  not to take the test.”
Many students thanked the teacher and left. The teacher looked at the students left and said, “Does anyone else want to get a ‘B’? This is your last   3 .” Two more students decided to go.
Only seven students were still in the classroom. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just   4  an ‘A’ in this class. Keep believing in   5 .
I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a test that any teacher could give. Students who are not  6  in what they have learned are ‘B’ students at most.
The same is   7  in our daily life. The ‘A’ students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have   8  both successes and failures. They have got life’s lessons, not only from normal education, but from events in their   9 , and have become   10  people. You see, one should always believe in himself.
