九、单词填空

30. 难度：中等

    We may think today that Donald Trump invented the term, but “fake news” has been around for a while. In the early 19^th century, small regional and local papers made their product known and i1. their sales with a lot of made-up news articles. The Central Park Zoo Escape, reported on November 9, 1874, is one such event.

The front page of the New York Herald that day reported that v2. animals had escaped from the Central Park Zoo. A rhino had fallen into a sewer（下水道） and a lion had been seen walking slowly through a church. The article said that, while the police and National Guard were doing what they could, twenty-seven people had already died and many others had been injured. Readers were scared and armed men were seen in the streets, preparing to p3. their loved ones and property by battling the wild animals of the zoo. In their upset, they clearly hadn’t read to the end of the article: the l4. line stated that ‘the whole story given above is a pure lie’!

But why was it done? The article was the creation of a reporter named Joseph Clarke. Working alongside his editor, Clarke wanted to highlight the dangerous conditions at the zoo by showing the readers what could happen, not what a5. had. They had no idea of the fear it would cause. The paper never apologized for the upset to New Yorkers. I6., they ran a short statement requesting that safety conditions at the zoo should be improved.

The l7. to learn? Always read right to the end!

The whole story given above is not a pure lie!

十、回答问题

31. 难度：困难

    Our Great Ocean Road Adventure

By Donna Waverley

My family and I recently went to Australia, to see my grandparents. But before we visited them, we went sightseeing along the Great Ocean Road, on the Australian coast.

Dad had planned to drive, but even though he was used to driving miles without getting exhausted, he then read on the website that the road wouldn’t be an easy drive. Anyway, we thought he deserved to enjoy the fantastic views too, which he couldn’t do as our driver. So instead, we booked discount bus tickets and off we went.

Our first stop was where wild kangaroo lived – and Dad and I were taking a walk when a big one appeared! For a moment, it seemed to consider coming towards us, which made me a little nervous – but then it went off along the road and into the bushes.

That wasn’t the only wildlife we saw. I thought it unlikely we’d see famous Koala bears during our short visit. In fact, at our next stop, we saw roughly six million in that area! Sadly, some gum trees they were in had very few leaves left, which people told us was because of the Koalas, although I’d read that lack of water is indeed the problem.

Dad had booked a campsite for the night, with ready-made tents – for an adventure! I wasn’t sure about that, but they were really luxury tents, within walking distance of some famous rocks and other places we hoped to visit. However, Dad also said the sounds of wild creatures would help us sleep. That sounded worrying – until the “wild creatures” turned out to be frogs! So I was embarrassed by my fears – and kept awake by the frogs! But we had fun making meals together – we’d brought food, as we knew there’d be nowhere to eat.

In fact, this whole trip was fantastic!

1.The passage is mainly about Donna’s visit to his grandparents, isn’t it?

2.Why did Donna’s Dad decide not to drive the Great Ocean Road himself?

3.How was Donna when she saw a big kangaroo along the route?

4.What has caused the gum trees to be in such a bad state?

5.Where did Donna’s family spend the night?

6.What did Donna like and dislike about the place where they stayed?
