23、 “Indeed, like the recent alternative childrens book【 46】 _(adapt) , Fantastic Mr. Fox, this is more like an adult film【 47】 _childrens clothingor rather in Jim Henson monster suits. When rambunctious (无法无天的 ) nine-year-old Max feels【 48】 ig_by his busy single mum and her new boyfriend, and runs awa

24、y【 49】 _ home, he finds himself on an island populated by huge, hairy, scary Wild Things. Here, he gets himself crowned king, and he and the monsters fight and play, and throw mud at each other (which the younger viewers will love). They return home. Thats it. And thats your problem.

25、nt【 50】 de_its disappointing. Despite whimsical (异想天开的 ) imaginative and heart-tugging moments, Jonze and co-writer Dave Eggers inevitably lose the wonderful subtlety(精妙之处 )of Maurice Sendaks well-loved 338-word picture book just by【 51】 _(spin)it out into a full-length feature.

27、ing magic. Section A 55 56 To have a holiday in a delightful hideaway cottage, you should contact Mrs. S Edwards. 57 In the Criccieth Five Star Hotel, free tennis, game fishing, riding and golf are available. 58 Short breaks are available out of season in the Llyn Peninsula. 59 If you plan to have a

28、 holiday with your children, what is the best place? 60 What will you enjoy most in Bron Afon Self Catering? Section B 60 The giant panda, the creature that has become a symbol of conservation, is facing extinction. The major reason is loss of habitat, which has continued despite the establishment o

29、f 14 panda reserves. Deforestation, mainly carried out by fanners clearing land to make way for fields as they move higher into the mountains, has drastically contracted mammals range. The panda has disappeared from much of central and eastern China, and is now restricted to the eastern flank of the

30、 Himalayas. Satellite imagery has shown the seriousness of the situation; almost half of the pandas habitat has been cut down or degraded since 1975. Worse, the surviving panda population has also become fragmented; a combination of satellite imagery and ground surveys reveals panda “islands“ in pat

31、ches of forest separated by cleared land. The population of these islands has become isolated because the animals are loath to cross open areas. Just puting a road through panda habitat may be enough to split a population in two. The minuscule size of the panda population worries conservationists. T

32、he smallest groups have too few animals to be viable, and will inevitably die out. The larger populations may be viable in the short term, but will be susceptible to genetic defect as a result of inbreeding. In these circumstances, a more traditional threat to panda-cycle of flowering and subsequent

33、 withering of the bamboo that is their staple foodcan become literally speciesthreatening. The flowering prompts panda to move from one area to another, thus preventing inbreeding in otherwise sedentary populations. In panda islands, however, bamboo flowering could prove catastrophic(灾难性的 ) because

34、the pandas are unable to emigrate. The last conservation management plan for the panda, prepared by Chinas Ministry of Forestry and the World Wild Fund for Nature, aims primarily at maintaining panda habitats and ensuring that populations are linked wherever possible. This plan will change some exis

35、ting reserve boundaries, establish 14 new reserves and protect or replant corridors of forest between panda islands. Other measures include better control of poaching, reducing the degradation of habitats outside reserves and reforestation. The plan is ambitious. Implementation will be expensive and

36、 will require participation by individuals ranging from villagers to government officials. The survival of the giant panda is being seriously【 61】 _. This is largely because the overall size of their habitat has been reduced. As a result, pandas are more prone to problems and are unable to【 62】 _aro

37、und freely, following the growth cycles of【 63】 _ plant. A new plan aims to protect existing panda【 64】_and to join some of them together. This plan also involves reforestation and the creation of new reserves. To succeed, everyone,【 65】 _both the government and individuals, will have to cooperate.

38、Section C 65 Honda has developed a way to read patterns of electric currents on a persons scalp as well as changes in cerebral blood flow when a person thinks about four simple movementsmoving the right hand, moving the left hand, running and eating. 67. _ In a video shown at Tokyo headquarters, a p

39、erson wearing a helmet sat still but thought about moving his right handa thought that was picked up by electrodes attached to his head inside the helmet. 68. _ Honda said the technology wasnt quite ready for a live demonstration because of possible distractions in the persons thinking. Another prob

40、lem is that brain patterns differ greatly among individuals, and so about two to three hours of studying them in advance are needed for the technology to work. The company, a leader in robotics, acknowledged the technology was still at a basic research stage, with no immediate practical applications

41、 in the works. 69._ Japan boasts one of the leading robotics industries in the world, and the government is pushing to develop the industry as a road to growth. Research on the brain is being tackled around the world, but Honda said its research was among the most advanced in figuring out ways to re

42、ad brain patterns without having to hurt the person, such as embedding(植入 )sensors into the skin. Honda has made robotics a centerpiece of its image, sending Asimo to events and starring the walking, talking robot in TV ads. 70._ “ Our products are for people to use.

45、future. “ （ B） Among the challenges for this brain technology is making the reading-device smaller so it can be portable, according to Honda. （ C） After several seconds, Asimo, programmed to respond to these brain signals, lifted its right arm. （ D） Honda succeeded in analyzing these thought pattern

46、s, and then relayed them as wireless commands to Asimo, its human-shaped robot. 68 Chose the most appropriate of the following paragraphs that fit into questions 67 to 70 in the passage. （ A） Im talking about dreams today, said Yasuhisa Arai, executive at the Honda Research Institute in Japan, the c
