Far from the land of Antarctica, a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod. For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer. Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fish’s blood and measured its freezing point. The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88℃ and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05℃. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture. The scientists’ next research job was clear: Find out what in the fish’s blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein(蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point. Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules(分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content. It is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein. Or AFGP. 1. What is the text mainly about? A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic. B. A special fish living in freezing waters. C. The ice shelf around Antarctica. D. Protection of the Antarctic cod. 2. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature? A. The seawater has a temperature of -1.88℃. B. It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture. C. A special protein keeps it from freezing. D. Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05℃. 3. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. A type of ice-salt mixture. B. A newly found protein. C. Fish blood. D. Sugar molecule. 4. What does “glycol-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean? A. sugar B. ice C. blood D. molecule

Rescuers have found the bodies of over 130 people killed in two ferry disasters in Bangladesh．The accidents happened during a storm that hit the country on April 21st．Hundreds more are missing or feared to be dead． The two ferries sank in different rivers near the capital city of Dhakfi as strong winds and rain hit the South Asian country．The government has since banned all ferries and other boats from traveling at night during the April-May stormy season. One of the ferries，MV Mitali，was carrying far more people than it was supposed to．About 400 passengers fitted into a space made for just 300，police said．The second ferry carried about 100 passengers． “The number of deaths is certain to rise．”said an official in charge of the rescue work．“No one really knows how many people were on board the ferry or how many of them survived.” Ferries in Bangladesh don’t always keep passenger lists，making it difficult to determine the exact number of people on board．Besides the ferry accidents，at least 40 people were killed and 400 injured by lightning strikes．falling houses and trees and the sinking of small boats．Storms are common this time of year in Bangladesh，as are boating accidents．Ferry disasters take away hundreds of lives every year in a nation of 130 million people．Officials blame these river accidents on a lack of safety measures, too many passengers in boats and not enough checks on weather conditions． Ferries are a common means of transport in Bangladesh．It is a country covered by about 230 rivers．Some 20,000 ferries use the nation’s Waterways every year．And many of them are dangerously overcrowded．Since 1977, more than 3,000 people have died in some 260 boating accidents． 1.The two ferry disasters occurred_______.

One in five American families will move every year. Moving is one of the most stress-producing events a family has to go through. Experts say it can be harder for children. How do you help your child adjust to the changes? The Ricardos moved from their old house to a new home. Same family, same dog-but it was harder for 9-year-old Elena. She hated the room, the house and everything. She hated leaving her friends the most. “ I was so emotional. I mean, saying goodbye to all my friends…..my very close friends, who was my neighbor, made me so sad,” says Elena. For some children, the emotional stress of moving is not much more different from the emotions when someone has died. “There’s that sense that, ‘I’ve lost my friends, my friends, my base, my school, my teachers-everything I knew that made me feel safe is all gone now. I have to start over,” says Dr. Tim Jordan. Starting over is exactly Dr. Tim Jordan’s advice. Make new friends, enter the new school and enter the new neighborhood. And here are some other pieces of advice. ● Explain clearly to the children why the move is necessary. ● Familiarize(使熟悉) the children as much as possible with the new area with maps, photographs or the daily newspaper. ● After the move, got the children to join in activities in the place. ● Help the children keep in touch with friends from the neighborhood before through telephone, letters, e-mail, and personal visits. 1. Which of the following is useful to reduce the children’s stress before the move? A. Let doctors give children some advice. B. Try letting children accept the fact of moving. C. Let children keep in touch with their former friends. D. Copy the new environment in the old home. 2. What can we know from the passage? A. Most American children can get used to the changes in moving. B. Dr. Tim Jordan lost his family, friends, teachers after moving. C. The emotional stress of moving is the same in some way as that of knowing someone’s death. D. the Ricardos lost their dogs after moving to their new house. 3.

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I had an experience which occurred merely two feet away from me. Trying to locate my friend among the passengers coming through the jet way, I noticed a man walking toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family. First he kissed his three children one by one and said, “It’s nice to see you. I missed you so much!” Then he hugged his wife, “I’ve saved the best for last!” giving her the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing. They stared at each other’s eyes, smiling at one another, while holding both hands. For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds（新婚夫妇）, but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. Full of admiration, I asked, “Wow! How long have you two been married?” “Being together for fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” He replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well, then, how long have you been away?” I asked. “Two whole days!” “Two days?” I was astonished. By the intensity (热烈) of the greeting, I had assumed he’d been gone for at least several weeks --- if not months. I knew my expression betrayed me, so I turned away my eyes and said quietly, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after so long!” The man suddenly stopped smiling and looked me straight in the eye. With forcefulness he told me something that left me a different person. “Don’t hope, friend…decide!” Then he smiled again, shook my hand and said, “God bless!” With that, he and his family turned and walked away together. I was still watching that man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without hesitation, and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “My future!” 1. The best title of the passage may be _______. A. Long Loving Hugs B. My Future C. Don’t Hope. Decide D. Love Is Everywhere 2. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. The man replied to the author, with his eyes still fixed on his wife’s face. B. After being away for several weeks, the man missed his family very much. C. It was fourteen years since the couple had got married. D. Their three kids reminded the author of newlyweds. 3. By saying “my expression betrayed me” (in Paragraph 4), the author means that ____. A. he failed to express his ideas to the man B. the man sensed his real feelings from his expression C. he didn’t believe in his expression any more D. his expression was not faithful to him 4. From the passage, we can infer that __________. A. the experience may be easily forgotten by the author B. the author will live a passionate life from now on C. the author will be away from his family and hug them passionately upon his return D.
