The wolves have gone. The bears have been hunted to extinction. Fortunately, there are a few badgers (獾)Oh, well, actually, not for long as the British government has just decided to kill them too! But why?Badgers are fascinating creatures. The black and white mammals live underground in “setts”， which they dig out of the earth. They are extremely brave, fighting off larger animals such as bears and wolves. The problem is that some badgers carry “Bovine Tuberculosis”(BTB), an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium Bovis (M. Bovis) which can cause TB in some other animals, including cattle.For farmers, this is a serious issue. In 1998 in the UK, almost 6 000 cows were killed to control the disease. And in 2010, more than 30 000 animals were destroyed. Its expensive too. Bovine TB costs the UK about 100 million per year. And some believe that the disease could end up costing the economy 9 billion over the next 40 years if nothing is done about it.Experts say that badgers are responsible for about 50% of the infected cattle. So, after much debate, the government has agreed to a badger cull (杀戮). This will mean about 30 000 of the innocent creatures will be wiped out to fight the disease. Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman admitted that there was “great strength of feeling” about it, but said, “I believe this is the right way forward.”Of course, many are against the measure, including conservationists and animal rights activists. They claim that killing the badgers in controlled zones wouldnt work because badgers from neighboring areas would simply move into the empty setts and become infected too. Furthermore, they believe that the way cattle are raised intensively, and transported around to lots of different farms during their lives is probably the biggest cause of the spread of the disease.Most ordinary people are against the measure too. A survey suggests about twothirds are against killing the badgers, with majorities against killing them regardless of age, region and gender. One of the alternatives to the cull involves using vaccine (疫苗) on badgers. However, this costs an average of 2 250 per year per square kilometer. Trapping and shooting badgers costs 2 500 per year, but shooting freerunning badgers only costs about 200 per year (per square kilometer)So, with that in mind, its easy to see how the government arrived at their decision. Money talks!文章大意：本文是一篇新闻报道。在英国，一些獾身上携带TB病菌，这种病菌会传播给牲畜，从而给农夫带来巨大的损失。政府不顾多数人的反对，打算实行行动来杀掉獾，由于对他们来说，这样做的代价相对来说较低。16Why does the government want to kill the badgers?ABecause there is no other choice to cut the spread of the disease.BBecause badgers carry TB, a disease which can infect other animals.CBecause they almost wiped out an entire population of cattle.DBecause it might be an effective way to fight TB at the least expense.答案：D细节理解题。依据文章其次段中第四句“The problem is that some badgers carry Bovine Tuberculosis (BTB).”及倒数其次段最终一句“. shooting freerunning badgers only costs about 200 per year (per square kilometer)”可知，杀死獾可能是以最低价来对抗TB传播的有效方法。故答案选D。17Which of the following statements is TRUE?ASome people object to culling because it costs much more to trap and shoot badgers.BIn the following four decades, 9 billion will be spent on TB.CBased on the survey, people of different age groups, regions and both genders are against killing the badgers.DCaroline Spelman thought badgers should be culled despite peoples strong reaction.答案：C细节理解题。依据倒数其次段其次句“A survey suggests about twothirds are against killing the badgers, with majorities against killing them regardless of age, region and gender.”可知，一项调查表明来自不同年龄、地区和性别的人，大多数都反对屠杀獾。故答案选C。18Who is strongly for killing the badgers according the passage?AThe government. BMost ordinary people.CConservationists. DAnimal rights activists.答案：A细节理解题。依据文章第四、五、六段及文章最终一段中“its easy to see how the government arrived at their decision. Money talks！”可知，政府对屠杀獾是格外支持的，由于这样做的代价最低。故答案选A。19What is the authors attitude toward governments decision?ASupportive. BCritical. CObjective. DUnconcerned.答案：B推理推断题。依据文章第一段最终一句中“actually, not for long as the British government has just decided to kill them too！”及最终一段“So, with that in mind, its easy to see how the government arrived at their decision. Money talks！”可知，政府不顾多数人的反对，只考虑钱的问题。从中可以看出，作者对政府的打算是持批判态度。故答案选B。20Which is the best title for the passage?AThe Control of TB BThe Voice of the BadgersCBadger Danger DThe Threat of the Badgers答案：C标题概括题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲了英国政府不顾人们的反对，已经打算杀死獾，从而使獾处于危急之中。因此，短文的最佳标题应是Badger Danger。故答案选C。【阅读理解】An 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 tome.In addition 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 (发起）the If All 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(市长）appeared on television to 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 neighbourhood 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 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(全都）can be achieved .Or it 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.Ultinatel was Nancy points out,the level of sucicess is not meastured by how many people read a book,but by how many people are enriched by the process.or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.1.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 communnity service.D.To promote the friendship between cities.2.Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the projict?A.They had little interest in reading.B.They were too busy to read a book.C.They came from many different backgroundsD.They lacked support from the locat government3.According to the passage,where would the project be more easily carried out?A.In large communities with little sense of unityB.In large cities where libraries are far from homeC.In medium-sized cities with a diverse populationD.In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached4.The underlined words“shared a word”in Paragraph 5 probably mean A.exchanged ideas with each otherB.discussed the meaning of a wordC.gamed life experience D.used the same language5.According to Nacy,the degree of students 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 reading.D.the number of books that each person reads.【参考答案】1-5、BCDAC
