阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳答案。
We’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They are in their shells (壳) —sleeping.
Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into his shell. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.
In the spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (触角), are very weak. But its sense (感觉) of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens.
A snail’s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can’t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.
51. A snail _________.
A. moves more slowly at night B. has thousands of feet
C. doesn’t move at all D. sleeps much of the time
52. In the sentence “A snail draws its body into its shell”, the word “draw” means _____.
A. to make with a pencil B. to push C. to pul D. to move away
53. From the story, we know _________.
A. a snail’s shell is very thin B. a snail can’t see well
C. a snail’s nose is quite short D. a snail’s body changes in different seasons
54. A snail goes to sleep when _____.
A. it feels hungry B. it is put into a paper box C. spring is coming D. it rains heavily
55. Which of the following is wrong?
A. In winter the snail doesn’t eat or move.
B. A snail doesn’t like living under the sun.
C. The snail’s teeth can’t be worn out.
D. The snail’s nose helps to find food.

举一反三
The Olympic Games are seen as the greatest test of an athlete’s ability and are supposed to celebrate the spirit of fair play. But in fact, sportsmen have been using drugs to cheat their way to victory since the Games first began.
In the early years, athletes ate mushrooms(蘑菇)and plant seeds to improve their performance. Nowadays, this kind of cheating has a name doping(服用兴奋剂).
Just last month, Britain’s top sprinter(赛跑选手) Dwain Chambers and several American athletes tested positive(呈阳性)for the drug THG. Until a coach secretly gave a sample of THG to scientists, no one knew how to test for it.
“We’re like cops(警察)chasing criminals—athletes are always adapting and looking for areas we haven’t investigated,” said Jacquew de Ceaurriz, a French anti-doping expert.
Since the first drugs test was carried out at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, many cheats have been caught out. The most famous case in history is that of Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson.
He broke the 100 meters world record in winning gold at the 1988 Seoul(汉城)Olympics. But days later, he tested positive for drug use, lost his gold medal and was banned from the sport. Five years later, he returned to action—only to be found positive again and banned forever.
China has also had problems with drug cheats. At the 1994 Asian Games, 11 Chinese athletes—seven of them swimmers—tested positive for banned drugs. Sports organizations promised that cheating on this scale would not happen again.
Experts are also worried that doping can damage a person’s health. It is believed to increase the risk of liver and kidney(肝肾)diseases, and women may experience reproductive(生育) problems. As long as they can stay ahead of the scientists, it is unlikely the cheats will stop. But experts say there is a limit to what can be achieved and that athletes will not be able to change their bodies using gene(基因)technology.
“For the moment, genetic doping does not exist,” said de Ceaurriz. “Even in 10 or 15 years it will not be done easily—the scientific community(界)will not let it happen.”
( ) 60. Which of the following is not the way that some athletes cheat to their better sports achievements?
A.Eating mushrooms. B Taking drug THG.
C. Taking genetic doping. D. Eating plant seeds.
( ) 61. How many countries are mentioned in the passage in which there were athletes doping?
A. Two. B. Four. C. Sic. D. Eight.
( ) 62. We can infer from the passage that ____.
A.scientists get a lot of information about drugs before the athletes take doping
B.taking doping will never happen again because of the serious test
C.few athletes used drug cheats before the first drugs test was carried out at the 1968 Olympics
D.problems with drug cheats are still serious though they are severely tested
( ) 63. Which statement of the following is true?
A.Many police are sent to chase criminals of taking doping during the Olympic Games.
B.The drug test was carried out until the 1968 Olympics.
C.There is the possibility that women athletes taking doping will give no birth to a child.
D.Ben Johnson was banned from sports forever for being tested positive for drug use at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

Flying first class was a new experience for me.I had a sense of 21 to be flying in such luxury(奢侈).

As the stewardess walked by our seats near the 24 of the flight, I looked at her and said, “Thank you and I hope you have a great night”.She stopped with a look of 25 , bent down, looked at me and said, “Excuse me?” I repeated my words and she smiled in a rather 26 way, almost as if I had asked her a question that she did not know how to answer.

When I was learning calligraphy my teacher told me a story.
A calligrapher taught handwriting.One or his students who often practised handwritihg with old sheets of newspaper complained that he made very little progress though he had learned it with the calligrapher for a long time.His teacher said to him,“Try to use the best paper.Maybe you’ll write better.”
The student did as he was told.It really worked.He made headway not long afterwards and felt curious.He asked his teacher about the reason.The calligrapher answered,“When you used old newspaper to practise handwriting ,you would think you were writing a draft.It didn’t matter if you wrote badly as old newspaper was plenty in supply.In that case you wouldn’t pay much attention to it.Now you use the best paper and you ’ll treasure it.Each time you write you feel strongly about the rarity of chances and you’ll devote to it with all your heart and soul ; you’ll do the handwritihg much more attentively than practising.Of course you’ve made rapid progress.”
Indeed , we spend our ordihary days just as they are worthless “ old newspaper ”.We don’t care if we scrawl and waste it ,thinking that it will come endlessly---the “ old newspaper ” is inexhaustible.In such a mood we may each day pass by opportunities but fail to catch any of them.
Life is not a military exercise but an actual war in which real weapons are used .In everyday life there’s no chance for us to draft.That’s because what we call“draft” actually is the answer sheet we write that cannot be changed.
Every day of our life is something new.Let us take every day as a sheet of the best paper.
46.The calligrapher in the story told the student to write on the best paper because he thought .
A.the student would practise more carefully on the best paper
B.it was comfortable to write on the best paper
C.the student had enough money to buy the best paper
D.the student could write more on the best paper
47.The student didn’t make much progress at first because .
A.he regarded his writihg on old newspaper just as a draft
B.he was too poor to buy better paper to write on
C.he didn’t follow his teacher’s advice
D.he was not used to the calligrapher’s teaching manner
48.We learn from the passage that .
A.the student finally gave up
B.the student made rapid progress by practising more carefully
C.the caligrapher was strict with his students
D.old newspaper is not useful
49.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.What teachers say is always true.
B.Success calls for attentiveness.
C.Handwriting is easy to practise.
D.New things are always better than old ones
50.The writer want to tell us that .
