tiger suddenly attacked its trainer and had to be shot dead. as the circus packed up and left, circus officials said the show would go on, even without tigers. however, the officials cant simply turn a blind eye to the ethical problems left behind. even before this tragedy(悲劇), animal rights activists protested against keeping wild animals in unnatural conditions and forcing them to suffer for the profit(利潤(rùn)) of circus organizers. it is now time for us to take effective steps to make sure that circus animals are treated properly.*circus safe for animals our circus recently suffered a most tragic event in its history. while we are thankful for the pity from the public, we are also astonished by the opinion expressed in “tragedy at the circus.” first, our performing animals are not taken from the wild. as to the ethical problems. we always believe humans and animals canand shouldlive together nicely. to us, the performing animals are representatives of their species(物種), and our circus is one of the only places left willing to support this special role of performing animals in the existence of the species. those who argue that circus life is harmful to animals show little knowledge of these facts. life in the “wild” is unsafe, but a continuous struggle for existence. to overlook these realities is the greatest fault against the animal kingdom. this circus has proven that animals are stronger and smarter than we could imagine. within the circus is a joyful atmosphere for both animals and humans: people are educated, and species saved.67.what is the main purpose of the first passage?a.to show pity for the performing animals. b.to express worries about animal trainers safety. c.to deal with the difficult situations of the circus. d.to call for action to protect circus animals.68.what will the circus most probably do?a.take no notice of the tragedy.b.continue its performances.c.use fewer wild animals.d.limit its profit.69.what does the circus think of its performing animals?a.they are as clever as human beings.b.they struggle continuously with human beings for existence.c.they are helpful in saving their species.d.they have equally natural living conditions as wild animals.70.what is the most probable relationship between the two passages?a.a public request and a newspaper report.b.a newspaper article and a reply to it.c.two parts of a newspaper article.d.two newspaper reports.答案 67.d 68.b 69.c 70.b

church on a sunday cost a us citizen 10,000 for breaking washingtons strict new security（安全）rules. the expensive trip to church was a surprise for richard albert, who lives right on the canadian border. like the other half-dozen people of township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for albert. the nearby quebec village of st. pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church. there are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5,530-mile border between canada and the us-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings. as a result, albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the us after attending church in canada, as usual. the us customs（海關(guān)）station in this area is closed on sundays, so be just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last may, following a tightening of border security. two days later. albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him be had been caught on carnera crossing the border illegally（非法）. ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 us citizens in that area so they can enter the country when canadian customs stations are closed, but the us stopped a similar program last may. that forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint. albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a sunday church since. “i feel like im living in a prison,” he said.59we learn from the text that richard albert is . aan american living in township 15ba canadian living in a quebec village ca canadian working in a customs stationdan american working in a canadian church60albert was

daily occurrence for albert.”告訴我們r(jià)ichard albert是一位住在township 15的美國(guó)人。60.解析：這是一道細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段“two days later，albert was told to go to the customs office，where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally.”可判斷出albert受罰的原因是他違反了美國(guó)安全條例。61.解析：這是一道猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)這段的內(nèi)容可判斷出由于美國(guó)停止了ottawa使用的方法，使得人們不得不迂回200英里通過(guò)山回家。62.解析：這是一道主旨題。這篇短文講述了一位美國(guó)人為了去教堂而違反了美國(guó)安全法，而被罰款$10

a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun. “my grandmothers didnt do anything but keep house and serve everybody. they were programmed to do that,” said emily cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old red hat society. while men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. but the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old. if you take into consideration feminism(女權(quán)主義), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the red hat society looks almost inevitable(必然的). in this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple(紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing. “the organization took the idea from a poem by jenny joseph that begins: “when i am an old woman, i shall wear purple. with a red hat which doesnt go,” said ellen cooper, who founded the red hat society in 1998. when the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention. “the point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” cooper said. “women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” this is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “were a ladies play group. it couldnt be more simple,” added coopers assistant joe heywood.44the underlined word “chapter” in paragraph 2 means _. aone branch of an organization ba written agreement of a club cone part of a collection of poems da period in a societys history45from the text , we know that the “baby boomers” are a group of people who ahave gradually become more noticeablebare worried about

like to appear more attractive cthey would like to have fun and live for themselves dthey want to be more like their parents 答案 44.a45.d46.c47.b48.c44.解析：這是一道猜義題。根據(jù)其定語(yǔ)“of the 7yearold red hat society”可猜測(cè)出這個(gè)詞的意思是“某個(gè)組織的一個(gè)分部”。45.解析：這是一道細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。第三段“but the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers，and the same people who refused their parents way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.”說(shuō)明她們想過(guò)一種新的生活。46.解析：這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)這篇短文的內(nèi)容可推斷出這個(gè)組織的成員相信男女平等。47.解析：這是一道細(xì)節(jié)題。從倒數(shù)第二段“ellen cooper，who founded the read hat society in 1998”可知，ellen cooper創(chuàng)建了這個(gè)組織。48.解析：這是一道細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)第一段“enter the red hat societya group holding the belief that old ladies should have

cheat (詐騙). either way , it could be the perfect crime (犯罪), because the criminals are birdshorning pigeons ! the crime begins with a telephone message to the owner of a stolen car : if you want the car back, pay up then, the car owner is directed to a park, told where to find a bird cage and how to attach money to the neck of the pigeon inside . carrying the money in a tiny bag , the pigeon flies off . there have been at least four such pigeon pick-ups in changwa. what at first seemed like the work of a clever stay-at-home car thief, however , may in face be the work of an even lazier and more inventive criminal mindone that avoid (避免)not only colleting money but going out to steal the car in the first place . police officer chen says that the criminal probably has pulled a double trick: he gets money for things he cannot possibly return . instead of stealing cars , he lets someone else do it and then waits for the car-owner to place an ad (啟事) in the newspaper asking for help . the theory is supported by the fact that , so far , none of the stolen cars have been returned . also, the amount of money demanded-under 3,000 taiwanese dollars seems too little for a car worth many times more . demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped as soon as the press reported the story. and even if they start again, chen holds little hope of catching the criminal . “we have more important things to do, ” he said .49after the car owner received a phone call. he awent to a certain pigeon and put some money in the bag it carried bgave the money to the thief and had his car back

inventive”的盜賊是鴿子的主人。51.解析：這是一道細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。第四段“the theory is supported by the fact that，so far，none of the stolen cars have been returned.”表示chen的想法是對(duì)的。52.解析：這是一道所指題。根據(jù)上文“demands for
