However, at 4:45, Tommy arrived with a(n)  47  collection of butterflies in glass cases. After his  48  had admired them and helped him to arrange them on a table in the classroom, she was surprised to see Tommy  49  them up again and begin to leave.
"What are you doing, Tommy?" she asked. "Those things must  50  here until tomorrow afternoon. That's when the parents are coming to see them."
"I know  51 ," answered Tommy, "and I will bring them back tomorrow; but my  52  doesn't want them to be out of our house at night in case they are  53 ."
"But what has it got to do with your brother?" asked the teacher. "Aren't the butterflies yours?"
"No," answered Tommy. "They belong to him."
"But Tommy, you are  54  to show your own hobby here, not somebody else's!" said the teacher.
"I know that," answered Tommy. "My hobby is  55  my brother collecting butterflies."

Scientists in Canada say big ocean fish have almost disappeared from the world since the start of industrial fishing in the nineteen-fifties. The scientists found that population of large fish like tuna; swordfish and cod have dropped by ninety percent in the past fifty years.
The study took ten years. The researchers gathered records from fishing businesses and governments around the world. The magazine Nature published the findings.
The scientists say the common method called longline fishing is especially damaging to populations of large fish. This method involves many fishing lines connected to one boat. These wires can be close to one-hundred kilometers long. They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks to catch fish.
Longline fishing is especially common in the Japanese fishing industry. Records showed that Japanese boats used to catch about ten fish for every one-hundred hooks. The study says longline fishing boats now might catch one fish per hundred hooks.
The scientists say industrial fishing can destroy groups of fish much faster than in the past. The study suggests that whole populations can disappear almost completely from new fishing areas within ten to fifteen years.
Ransom Myers of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia led the study with Boris Worm of Dalhousie and the University of Kiel in Germany. Mister Worm says the destruction could lead to a complete re-organization of ocean life systems. Mister Meyers says the decreased number of large fish is not the only worry. He says even populations that are able to reproduce do not get the chance to live long enough to grow as big as their ancestors(祖先). He says not only are there fewer big fish, they are smaller than those of the past.
American government scientists say even with the best efforts to protect fish populations, decreases are to be expected.
小題1:Where is the passage probably taken from?
A．A story book.
B．A business magazine.
C．An environment report.
D．An economic survey.
小題2:Big fish have gradually been disappearing especially because ________.
A．longline fishing method is used
B．sea water is getting polluted
C．mankind destroys the environment
D．governments don’t make the best efforts
小題3:Which of the following shows the fact that the populations of large fish have dropped?
A．Today’s “l(fā)arge”fish are smaller than those of the past.
B．Longline boats now might catch fewer fish every one-hundred hooks.
C．Fish even able to reproduce don’t have the chance to live longer.
D．Japanese boats could catch about ten fish for every 100 hooks.
小題4:What can be the best title?
A．Discoveries Canadian Scientists Have Made
B．Japanese Fishing Industry
C．Losses of Big Fish
D．Modern Fishing Methods
小題5:When did the researchers begin to survey the decreasing of large fish?
A．In the 1960s.B．In the 1970s.C．In the 1980s.D．In the 1990s.

It is only during the last few years that man has generally realized that in the world of nature a balance exists between all forms of life. No living thing can exist by itself. It is part of a system in which all forms of life are joined together. If we change one part of the nature order, this will almost certainly bring about changes in some other parts.
　　The cutting of forests reduced the supply of oxygen. The killing of weeds and insects by chemicals led to the wide-spread poisoning of animals and birds. The throwing of waste products into the ocean hurt life in the sea, while waste gases changed the chemical balance of the atmosphere and shut out some of the sun’s necessary life-giving rays.
　　And so we could go on adding more examples until in despair(絕望) we might feel like giving up the struggle to control these harmful human activities. Man is very clever at changing the world around him to satisfy his immediate needs, but he is not so clever at looking far ahead, or at thinking about what the future results of his action might be. Man may well destroy himself because of his silly action.
小題1:The first paragraph tells us that _____.
A．a(chǎn)ll living things in nature depend on each other
B．everything in nature can’t exist without the help of man
C．man has known the importance of the balance of nature for a long time
D．no living thing can live naturally
小題2:In the second paragraph the examples given are used to prove that _____.
A．a(chǎn)ll forms of life belong to a system in which all the parts can be changed for one another
B．it is only during the last few years that man has generally known the balance of nature
C．there are some living things which can exist by themselves without change
D．we can’t change one form of life without destroying the balance of nature
小題3:The last paragraph suggests that in order to get his immediate benefits(利益) _____.
A．man is always anxious to control his activities within limits
B．man is always too eager in planning for distant future
C．man often fails to think about their future results of his action
D．man often feels that he will have to give up in despair
小題4:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Cutting down woods does little harm to human beings.
B．Man has to pay much more attention to the future results of his present action.
C．Oxygen comes from forests.
D．The passage tells us to try our best to get as much as possible immediately.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Nuclear energy has always been controversial. But since the tsunami and nuclear disaster in Fukushima (Japan) last year the issue is back in the headlines. And the world is divided— some countries are planning more nuclear plants, while others have promised to shut theirs down.
After Fukushima, Germany decided to switch off all its nuclear plants by 2022. Switzerland and Italy are also phasing out nuclear power. But France and the United States remain staunch supporters of atomic energy. In fact, almost 80% of France’s electricity comes from nuclear power, the highest percentage in the world. And in the US, the Obama administration said it “continues to support the expansion of nuclear power, despite the crisis in Japan.”
Nuclear supporters claim nuclear power can help the environment. Unlike fossil fuels, nuclear power doesn’t create greenhouse gases. So, pro-nuclear countries argue that nuclear power allows them to generate energy without contributing to climate change. Britain’s chief scientific adviser (John Beddington) supports this view. He recently said that the world doesn’t have the luxury of ignoring nuclear energy.
Nuclear power is also relatively cheap. Renewable energy sources such as solar, hydro and wind power may be clean, but they’re expensive; and right now, they require a lot of investment. This higher cost of using “green energy” is usually passed onto the consumer. So, while many people may prefer their energy to come from a renewable source, not so many are prepared to pay higher energy bills. This is of particular concern while the world economy is in such bad shape.
The main argument against nuclear energy is that it isn’t safe. For a start, nuclear waste is very difficult to dispose of, and remains toxic to humans for thousands of years. And even before Fukushima, there were several high-profile nuclear disasters. The most famous is probably the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, in the Ukraine. The radiation from the meltdown spread all over Europe, affecting thousands.
The nuclear energy issue is very complex. And it doesn’t look like it’ll be resolved anytime soon. As a Japanese commentator recently said, “it’s been a bad year for the ‘nuclear village’, but I don’t think they’re down and out yet.” The battle continues.
小題1:Which of the following may NOT be the advantage of nuclear energy over other energy sources?
A．Nuclear energy doesn’t produce any greenhouse gases.
B．Nuclear energy can help prevent the climate damage.
C．Nuclear energy is more environmental-friendly than other green energy sources.
D．Nuclear energy can save the consumers some money, compared to other renewable energies.
小題2:What does the underlined word “this” refer to in paragraph 4?
A．The fact that many people prefer to use the green energy sources while unwilling to pay higher bill.
B．The cost of using renewable sources
C．The fact that the nuclear power is cheaper.
D．The investment of renewable energy sources
小題3:We can learn from the last paragraph that _______.
A．the Japanese commentator is positive about the future of nuclear energy
B．the nuclear energy issue will be soon settled
C．a(chǎn) battle will break out in the future
D．Japan is considering to build a nuclear village in the future
小題4:What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A．To highlight the danger of using nuclear energy.
B．To introduce some serious nuclear disasters.
C．To show the argument between nuclear supporters and protesters.
D．To give some advice on how to use nuclear energy safely.

Does this sound familiar? It’s 3:00 am and you’re still awake and staring at the clock. You can’t sleep , and you’ve already tried all the familiar tricks – taken a warm bath , drunk a glass of heated milk ,tried counting sheep, and read a book –all with no success. If you are such a sufferer, remember you’re not alone. Experts said that one in every four Americans have trouble falling or staying asleep.
Lack of sleep can hurt your quality of life in so many ways. Short temper, impatience, poor decision-making, and mood swings are common among those with sleeping problems. Besides, relationships with family, friends, and co-workers may suffer as a result. Improper sleep can also put your safety at risk by reducing your awareness.
When you’re awake in the middle of the night, you can start to feel desperate for a way out . However, it makes sense to weigh the available treatments before choosing the one that’s right for you. Other sleep aids may seem like a quick fix, but it turns out that there are many disadvantages of these drugs. For one thing, they may require expensive, time-consuming trips to your physician. They may also be habit-forming or have unpleasant side effects like dizziness( 眩暈) dry mouth, and next-day sleepiness. Plus , they become less effective over time.
So what is the best sleep aid available on the market today? The answer is Somnapure , a product that represents nature and science coming together. This all-natural sleep aid which comes from Peak Life allows you to fall asleep quickly and remain asleep through the night . With Somnapure, you wake up feeling refreshed and energetic.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Farming is moving indoors, where the sun never shines, where rainfall is irrelevant (無(wú)關(guān)的) and where the climate is always right. The perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light, temperature，humidity，air quality and nutrition. It could be in a New York high- rise or a complex （建筑群） in the Saudi desert. It may be an answer to the world’s food problems.
The world already is having trouble feeding itself. Half the people on Earth live in cities, and nearly half of those – about 3 billion – are hungry or ill–fed. Food prices, currently increasing, are badly affected by dryness, floods and the cost of energy required to plant, harvest and transport it. And prices will only get more unstable. Climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain. Farmers in many parts of the world already are using water available to the last drop. And the world is getting more crowded: by mid-century, the global population will grow from 6.8 billion to 9 billion.
To feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness, or finding ways to greatly increase crop output.
Gertjan Meeuws and three other Dutch bioengineers grow vegetables and house plants in closed and regulated environments. In their research station, water flows into the pans when needed, and the temperature is kept constant. Lights go on and off, creating “day” and “night”, but according to the rhythm of the plant.
Meeuws says a building of 100 square meters and layers of plants could provide a daily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables for the entire population of Ken Bosch, about 140,000 people. Their idea isn’t to grow foods that require much space, like corn or potatoes.
Sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful. Plants need only specific wavelengths of light to grow. Their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions. They use about 90 percent less water than outdoor agriculture. And city farming means producing food near the consumer, so there’s on need to transport it long distances.
小題1:According to the text, Gertjan Meeuws’ farming _______.
A．can be used for corn production
B．is much like greenhouse farming
C．is adaptable to any environment
D．uses more water than outdoor farming
小題2:What is the second paragraph mainly about ?
A．The effect of climateB．The hungry people in cities.
C．The world’s food problem.D．The world’s increasing population.
小題3:What is the purpose of the text ?
A．To compare traditional and indoor farming.
B．To discuss the influence of climate change.
C．To explain the world’s food problem.
D．To introduce a new model of farming.
