Scientists have puzzled over this question for a long time. Now they“re starting to fill in the blanks.

18、 Not long ago, experiments showed that birds use the sun to guide them during daylight hours. How do birds fly at night? Tests with artificial stars have proved that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights. A dove had spent its lifetime in a cage and ha

19、d never flown under a natural sky. But it had an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird“s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the artificial stars caused a

20、 change in the direction of his flight. But the stars are apparently their main means of navigation. When the stars are hidden by clouds, they apparently find their way by such landmarks as river courses, mountain ranges, coast lines. But when it“s too dark to see these things, the doves circle help

21、lessly, unable to find their way.（分数：12.50）(1).The reasons why birds don“t get lost on their long flights _.（分数：2.50）A.have been known to scientists for yearsB.have only recently been discoveredC.are known by everyoneD.will probably remain a mystery(2).During daylight hours, birds _.（分数：2.50）A.fly a

23、A.birds have to be taught to navigateB.a bird that has been caged will not fly long distancesC.some birds cannot fly at nightD.some birds seem to follow the stars when they fly at night(5).In total darkness, doves _.（分数：2.50）A.use landmarks to find their wayB.don“t know which way to flyC.cannot easi

24、ly find their way homeD.wait for the stars to appear四、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.50)When Jane was in 7 th grade, she found that there was a lot of trouble in reading. Her mother used to sit by her side, and explain each paragraph of each school reading assignment to her because she didn“t understand wh

25、at she was reading. In class, Jane tried to hide the fact that she couldn“t read. Her teachers gave them the last ten minutes of class to start their reading homework, and she would sit there for the last ten minutes of class staring at the page, pretending she was reading it. She had to wait until

26、she got home so her mother could explain it to her. (82) By 8th grade she started comprehension a little on her own, but She still read very slowly at that time. She went out and took a course on speed reading. Then she developed her own way to read faster with better results. She started practicing

27、 these techniques every day, and as she started to read faster, her comprehension increased. So she was able to read faster with better comprehension. She found that when you read slowly, word by word, you get lost in the words, lose the bigger picture, and your comprehension drops. When you read fa

28、ster, your comprehension goes up because, instead of getting lost in the words, you can get the general idea.（分数：12.50）(1).The main problem Jane had in reading in her 7 th grade was that _.（分数：2.50）A.she had a poor vocabulary and very bad grammarB.she often forgot her school reading assignmentsC.she

29、 had difficulty in reading and comprehensionD.she always looked elsewhere when asked to read(2).Jane would pretend to be reading in the last ten minutes of class because _.（分数：2.50）A.she had to do what others were doingB.she was afraid of her trouble to be found outC.the reading class was terribleD.

31、分数：2.50）A.one does not pay enough attention to information if one reads fastB.one“s comprehension drops if one reads too slowlyC.in order to understand better, one has to read slowlyD.many people read fast in order to save time(5).The purpose of the writer is to prove the importance of _.（分数：2.50）A.

32、different reading skillsB.higher educationC.mother“s helpD.fast reading for comprehension五、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.50)Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the friendship for granted, we often don“t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a

33、 number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few for example, the average among students is about six per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy(亲密) between them and the reasons f

34、or their shared interest vary enormously. As we get to know people we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of prime importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in ag

35、e and background. Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, and to have attitudes and interests in common. They often talk about “being on the same wavelength“. It generally takes time to reach this point.

36、 (83) And the more intimately involved people become, the more they rely on one another. People want to do friends favours and hate to break a promise. Equally, friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to tolerate differences of opinion. In contrast with marriage, there are no friend

37、ship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful relationship, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barrier of age, class or ra

38、ce.（分数：12.50）(1).According to the author, _.（分数：2.50）A.all those who get on well with each other are friendsB.friends are closer than people who just get on well with each otherC.everyone understands clearly how to make friendsD.every student has six friends(2).When we make friends, we consider such

39、 things as age, race, and background, because _.（分数：2.50）A.it is not easy to have a friendly relationship with people when there is a marked difference in age and backgroundB.the degree of friendship between two people and the reason for their shared interest vary greatlyC.friends need to know all t

40、hese thingsD.these are the most important factors to make friends(3).“Being on the same wavelength“ in Paragraph 2 means _.（分数：2.50）A.using the same frequency while talkingB.keeping the same friendly relationships as other people doC.having similar ideas, beliefs, attitudes and interestsD.having the

41、 same background(4).Which of the following is NOT implied in the passage?（分数：2.50）A.Even friends may have differences of opinion.B.Friends never argue with each other.C.It generally takes time for people to become close friends.D.Someone“s habits may annoy his friends.(5).To strengthen friendly rela

42、tionship, people _.（分数：2.50）A.must hold friendship ceremoniesB.have to eliminate differences in backgroundC.should make friends with those who are of the same age and of the same raceD.should support and understand each other through shared experiences and emotions六、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.50)(84)

43、It is often difficult for a man to be quite sure what tax he ought to pay to the government because it depends on so many different things: whether the man is married; how many children he has; whether he supports any relatives; how much he earns; how much interest he receives; how much he has spent

44、 on his house during the year, and so on and so forth. All this makes it difficult to decide exactly how much the tax is. There was a certain artist who was always very careful to pay the proper amount. One year, after posting his check as usual, he began to wonder if he had paid enough. And after a

45、 lot of work, with a pencil and paper, he decided that he had not. He believed that he owed the government something. He was just writing another check to send to the tax-collector when the postman dropped a letter into the box at front door. (85) Opening it, the artist was surprised to find inside

46、it a check for five pounds from the tax-collector. The official explained that too much had been paid, and that therefore the difference was now returned to the taxpayer.（分数：12.50）(1).According to the passage, it is _ to decide the exact amount of tax to be paid.（分数：2.50）A.simpleB.easyC.difficultD.i
