The African elephant,the largest land animal remaining on earth ,is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统).Unlike other animals,the African elephant is to a great degree the builder of its environment.As a big plant-eater,it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives,therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地). It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat.In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day,it kills small trees and underbushes,and pulls branches off big trees.This results in many open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas.In these open spaces are many plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters. Take the rain forests for example.In their natural state,the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor.By pulling down trees and eating plants,elephants make open spaces,allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor.In such situations,the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well. What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species.If the elephant disappears,scientists say,many other animals will also disappear from large areas of forest and savanna,greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem. 1.What is the passage mainly about? A. Disappearance of African elephants. B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants. C. The effect of African elephants' search for food. D. The eating habit of African elephants. 2.What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean? A. Fixing the time. B. Worsening the state. C. Improving the quality. D. Deciding the conditions. 3.What do we know about the open spaces in the passage? A. They result from the destruction of rain forests. B. They provide food mainly for African elephants. C. They are home to many endangered animals. D. They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds. 4. The passage is developed mainly by________.. A. showing the effect and then explaining the causes B. pointing out similarities and differences C. describing the changes in space order D. giving examples

Their grandmothers fought for the vote, and their mothers have battled to have it all. Now the upcoming generation of girls have decided to turn the clock back and stay at home with their babies. According to a survey of more than 5,000 teenage girls in Britain, their main ambition (追求的目标) is to complete university then stay at home. More than nine out of ten of the girls believe it should be up to their husbands to provide for them. And although 43 percent of those questioned believe they should continue with their education until they have achieved a university degree, one in four say getting married is the most important thing for them. The supposedly super-modern, “fun comes first” teenage generation has proved to be very traditional in every area of their beliefs, with over 50 percent saying they would not dream of having children before seeing a ring on their finger. The desire to have children is beginning earlier too. On average, teenage girls plan to have their first child at 26, and most plan to have one or two more children over the following four years. The national average now is 1.64 children per couple. “This survey doesn’t show that the battles of feminism (女权运动) have been lost,” said author Claire Rayner, “Feminism was never opposed (反对) to marriage or children. On the contrary, feminism was about to equal opportunities for women to do what they wanted to do, when they wanted to do it, and this is exactly what these girls are choosing to do.” 1.The passage is mainly about ________. A. the result of the battles of feminism B. women’s struggle for independence in the society C. the girls’ desire to stay at home after they graduate D. women’s social status in the modern society 2.Girls prefer to be housewives rather than independent women because _______. A. it’s hard for women to find jobs B. men would rather their wives look after babies at home C. girls want to live a more comfortable life D. women have a low salary 3.. From the last paragraph we can see that Rayner thinks ________. A. women should stay at home with their babies B. women should find jobs and support the family C. women should be offered more job opportunities D. women should live the life they like

Michael Lewis writes about the inner strategies of sports to fans’ delight, and yet describes the personalities and worlds of his real-life characters with such depth that nonfans will enjoy his writing just as much. He looked successfully at baseball management with Moneyball. Now The Blind Side examines the increasing value placed on the left tackle(左后卫)position in football, the high pressure world of college football recruiting(招收队员), and in particular, the life of one promising young left tackle, Mike Oher. Oher’s story’s attractive. The big boy was silent to the point that many people thought he was mentally disabled. Then, in a lucky break, Oher and a friend are admitted to a very white, private high school, far across town from their own poor African-American neighborhood. Oher is unbelievably far behind academically, but he’s taken under the wing of Sean Tuohy, one of the school’s coaches, a wealthy man whose family Oher eventually joins. Before long, though Oher almost completely lacks football experience, he leads him to new athletic heights and brings on a fierce competition from eager college coaches. Lewis’s book brings on many interesting questions: How did a kid like Oher get so lost in the college recruiting system at first? How far should the system bend to meet the needs of a few student athletes? Are the Tuohys the most selfless, or are they using Oher themselves? If so, does it matter, if it benefits him? And what should we think of the college recruiting system that comes after him? These are just a few subjects raised by this highly readable book. No fan of football should pass on this good one, but even if your interest in sports is only mild, consider tracking down the works of Michael Lewis. 72．Michael Lewis is ________. A. a football player B. a high school student C. a book writer D. a football coach 73．People thought Oher was mentally disabled because ________. A. he was too tall and heavy B. he seldom spoke with others C. he was too academically poor D. he was an African-American 74．The third paragraph is intended to ________. A. explore deep meanings of the book B. tell how hard it is to understand the story C. question the poor quality of the book D. show what a hot topic the book becomes 75．Which of the following would be the best title? A. The Blind Side: Progress of a Game B. Michael Lewis: Thinker of Real Life C. Where Is College Recruiting System Going? D. Where Are the African-Americans Going?
