However, one tiger, which lives in an English zoo, turne

18、d out to be more cowardly( 胆小的 ) than his keepers could ever have imagined. Tanvir, a two-year-old Bengal tiger, got stuck at the top of a new 5m-high activity tower in the zoo, after climbing it for the first time. The wooden tower had been designed to provide mental exercise for Tanvir by testing

19、his ability of dealing with troublesome situations, but after climbing it in just a few seconds, he lost his courage when it came to coming back down. Tanvir went on to spend nearly two days at the top of the tower trying to collect the courage to attempt to get down. A spokesperson for the zoo said

20、 that several days before Tanvir had taken half an hour to get down a lower tower only 1.5m high, and the taller tower had clearly been too much challenging for him. “Every time he got to the edge, he looked out, put a paw over, and thought, no, I cannot make it!”laughed Samantha Cordrey, Tanvirs ke

21、eper. In the end Tanvirs hunger defeated his fear, and after almost 48 hours he made his way down. Burying himself in a big meal just like a hungry pig, Tanvir seemed to forget such a shameful experience for a while. It appears that his experience would not be the worst in Tanvirs life if he continu

22、ed to act like a chicken. It is not known whether he will take courage to go back up his exercise tower again.

B Because Tanvir is so cowardly that he has little courage to meet greater challenges. C Because Tanvirs bad health will

25、bring him much trouble in practice. D Because Tanvir is always careless and often causes trouble by accident. 【小题 4】 The zoo designed the 5m-high activity tower to_. A make Tanvir become brave B improve Tanvirs performance skills C let tourists watch Tanvir better D improve Tanvirs living ability 答案

26、： ACBD When you have a question about something, where do you go For many people the answer is simple as they can go online to a search engine like Google or Yahoo. But what about people in rural or underdeveloped areas who may have no way to get on the Internet A business and international developm

27、ent professor in California, Rose Shuman, found an answer for them: Question Box. Question Box is a service that provid es answers-free of charge- for people who cannot search the Internet directly. The users of Questions Box might be those who might not be able to read, or simply have no access to

28、the Internet. Question Box began three years ago in India. People used a metal call box with a push-to-talk button to connect a live operator. Rose Schuman explained,” You just need to push a big green button on the box which will connect you directly to our operators who are sitting in front of com

29、puters, and speak your language. You can ask them any sort of question you want, and theyll look it up in English or in Hindi, or whatever the main language is, and translate the answer back for you.” The service is currently offered in two villages. The latest version of the box uses mobile phone t

30、echnology, and solar panels in case the electrical power fails. Rose Shuman says the aim was to make the box as easy as possible for users, “It is very efficient (效率高的 ). Rather than try to bring a lot of difficulties to them and expect them to spend a lot of time to learn how to use the Internet, t

31、he idea was to make a technology that even Grandma could use.” In April 2009, Question Box was introduced to Uganda. Forty community workers with mobile phones connected villagers to call center operators in Kampala. The community workers went around telling people about the service. They wore T-shi

32、rts that said “Ask me.” But Internet service in Uganda proved slow and undependable. So Question Box teamed up with a local technology company to store information on a local server. That way, the researchers in Kampala could quickly search the database for answers. 【小题 1】 The best title for the pas

33、sage is _. A Question Box -taking the place of the Internet B Needing an answer -asking Question Box C Question Box -A great invention in the world D Rose Shuman- A professor helping the poor 【小题 2】 In Rose Schumans opinion, the greatest advantage of Question Box is that_. A It is the most advanced

34、in the world B It is more convenient to carry. C It is much easier to use D it saves much more energy 【小题 3】 The underlined word “them” in the fourth paragraph refers to_. A the users B the operators C the researchers D Question Box workers 【小题 4】 What can we know from the passage A Question Box cos

35、ts the users much less than the Internet. B Question Box operators can look for information in any language. C Question Box is more efficient in solving problems in underdeveloped areas. D Question Box can work without the help of the Internet in Uganda. 答案： BCAC Ask someone what they have done to h

36、elp the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way poss

37、ible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice wi

38、th plastic and cardboard. Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of areas for burying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the pro

39、cess itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to r

40、euse their plastic bags, for example. But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to connect packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of cons

41、umer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary. There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb. 【小题 1】 What

42、does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to A Using too much packaging. B Recycling too many wastes. C Making more products than necessary. D Having more material than is needed. 【小题 2】 The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _. A the tendency of cutting household waste B the

43、fact of packaging overuse C the rapid growth of supermarkets D the increase of packaging recycling 【小题 3】 What can be inferred from Paragraph 4 A Unpackaged products are of bad quality. B Supermarkets care more about packaging. C It is improper to judge quality by packaging. D Other products are bet

44、ter packaged than food. 【小题 4】 What can we learn from the last paragraph A Needless material is mostly recycled. B Fighting wastefulness is difficult. C People like collecting recyclable waste. D The author is proud of their consumer culture. 答案： DBCB Cities in Europe and around the world may be gro

45、wing “bike trees” in the near future. Invented by Japans JFE engineering Corp., the invention proved useful in the busiest parts of this nations crowded cities. Local governments of Japan have struggled for ways to encourage people to park their bikes considerately, particularly close to big station

46、s, but that may block some roads and entrances to home and businesses. “Our cities do not have a lot of space for any kind of parking, including bicycles.” said Mitsuharu Oshima, a spokesman for JFE Engineering. The bike tree comes in two types; one in a tower that is above ground, and on the contra

47、ry, the other in a subterranean structure. A cyclist registers（登记） with the operator of the equipment, pays a monthly fee and pushes the wheels of his bicycle into restraints at the base of the bike tree. Each bicycle is fitted with an electronic card with the owners details. A mechanical arm then p

48、ulls the bike into the base of the tower and moves it to a free location inside. To collect the bike later, the cyclist puts his card through a reader and his bike is automatically (自动地 )returned to him in seconds. “The science of the equipment has been difficult-even though they may look simple -because bikes come in many different shapes and sizes.” said Oshima. As well as clearing away the road, bicycles cannot be stolen from a bike tree. There
