This is partly because there is practically nothing left
14、 to kill, and partly because some steps have been taken, mainly by banning tiger-shooting, to protect those animals which still survive. Some people say that Man is naturally a hunter. I disagree with this view. Surely our earliest forefathers, who at first possessed no weapons, spent their time dig
15、ging for roots, and were no doubt themselves often hunted by meat-eating animals.I believe the main reason why the modern hunter kills is that he thinks people will admire his courage in overpowering dangerous animals. Of course, there are some who truly believe that the killing is not really the im
16、portant thing, and that the chief pleasure lies in the joy of the hunt and the beauties of the wild countryside. There are also those for whom hunting in fact offers a chance to prove themselves and risk death by design; these men go out after dangerous animals like tigers, even if they say they onl
17、y do it to rid the countryside of a threat. I can respect reasons like these, but they are clearly different from the need to strengthen your high opinion of yourself.The greatest big-game hunters expressed in their writings something of these finer motives. One of them wrote:“You must properly resp
18、ect what you are after and shoot it cleanly and on the animals own territory. You must fix forever in your mind all the wonders of that particular day. This is better than letting him grow a few years older to be attacked and wounded by his own son and eventually eaten, half alive, by other animals.
19、 Hunting is not a cruel and senseless killing not if you respect the thing you kill, not if you kill to enrich your memories, not if you kill to feed your people.”I can understand such beliefs, and can compare these hunters with those who hunted lions with spears and bravely caught them by the tail.
20、 But this is very different from many tiger-shoots I have seen, in which modern weapons were used. The so-called hunters fired from tall trees or from the backs of trained elephants. Such methods made tigers seem no more dangerous than rabbits.24. There is no more hunting in India now partly because
21、 _.A. it is dangerous to hunt thereB. hunting is already out of dateC. hunters want to protect animalsD. there are few animals left to hunt25. The author thinks modern hunters kill mainly _.A. to make the countryside safeB. to earn peoples admirationC. to gain power and influenceD. to improve their
22、health26. What do we learn about the big-game hunters?A. They hunt old animals.B. They mistreat animals.C. They hunt for food.D. They hunt for money.27. What is the authors view on the tiger-shoots he has seen?A. Modern hunters lack the courage to hunt face-to-face.B. Modern hunters should use more
23、advanced weapons.C. Modern hunters like to hunt rabbits instead of tigers.D. Modern hunters should put their safety first.解题导语本文介绍了我们的祖先和我们现代人捕猎的不同方式和不同动机。难度系数:424D 根据第一段的第二句可知正确答案。25B 根据第三段的第一句可知答案。26C 根据倒数第二段的描述可知大猎物捕杀者的目的是为了猎食。27 A 从最后一段中“ modern weapons were used. The so-called hunters fired fro
24、m tall trees or from the backs of trained elephants”可以说明现代捕杀者缺乏面对面狩猎的勇气。CAn idea that started in Seattles public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In additio
25、n to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched the “If Al
26、l of Seattle Read the Same Book” project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television t
27、o announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the “One Book, One Chicago” program. As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on
28、the bus about plot and character.The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity (一致)can be achieved. Or it
29、may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.Ultimately, as Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by
30、the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.28. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service.D. To promote the f

They came from many different backgrounds.D. They lacked support from the local government.30. According to the passage, where wou
32、ld the project be more easily carried out?A. In large communities with little sense of unity.B. In large cities where libraries are far from home.C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population.D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.31. According to Nancy, the degree of success
33、 of the project is judged by_.A. the careful selection of a proper bookB. the growing popularity of the writersC. the number of people who benefit from readingD. the number of books that each person reads解题导语本文是一篇说明文,讲的是美国人Nancy发起的“If All of Seattle Read the Same Book”这个项目的目的、发展状况以及在开展的过程中遇到的问题。难度系数
34、:428B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的第一句话可知Nancy发起这个项目的目的是鼓励人们阅读并进行分享,故答案选B项。29C 细节理解题。根据文章第四段的第一句可知Nancy的这个倡议在纽约很难推行是因为纽约人口众多,他们有着不同的背景,不可能就读哪一本书达成共识。故选C项。30D 推理判断题。根据文章第四段第二句中的 “ the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致) can be achieved”可知答案选D项。31C 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段
35、Nancy的话“不是看有多少人读同一本书,而是看有多少人在读书的过程中充实了自己”可知该项目成功的程度取决于“有多少人能从读书中获益”,故选C项。DBlind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive; to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.In the early stages of skill or character develop
36、ment, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone elses way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle; they help you get going, but
37、once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to foll
38、ow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you a
39、re going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because
40、their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material;
41、it is what to do with all the material knocking at the door of imagination.Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve you. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors tragedies and declare victory, and know that they are cheering me
42、 on.”32. To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should _.A. forget daily fear and painB. choose the right exampleC. ask others for decisionsD. stay away from stars33.

44、at is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A. To highlight the importance of creativity.B. To criticize the characters of role models.C. To compare imitation with creation.D. To explain the meaning of success.解题导语本文是一篇议论文,告诉我们不要盲目模仿,要有自己的创造力。难度系数:432B 推理判断题。根据文章第三、四段的内容可知,为了避免模仿的负面作用,我们应该选对模仿

Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into one enormous obligation (责任). 36 We say this to one another with great pride. 37 We
47、 are unavailable to our friends and family, unable to find time for the sunset, to finish off our obligations without time for a single mindful breath. This seems to have become the model of a successful life.Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the relaxation that gives us help. 38 Pois
48、oned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest. This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young. But how did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility, yet it lacks joy and delight? 39 Sunday is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good, time to sing songs, give thanks, and walk. It is time to be refreshed as we stop our wor
