Not just because of the bright lights of the shelter or peoples constant voices, it was the happening repeatedly nightmare that caused him to stay awake, to fear sleep. Donald was back in his small house. He did his best to ignore the howling winds outside his window. Yet he could not turn out the fearful whimpers (哽咽) of his little dog, or the uncomfortable sounds of his mother anxious in her room next door, unable to sleep through the storm despite her insistence they would be all right.Donald did not want his mother to be upset, but on some level, he was glad to hear she was awake. It meant he was not alone in the dark. Though he was 12, until recently it was impossible for Donald to fall asleep unless his mother lay down by his side.Suddenly there was a crash. Their living room window was shattered (打碎) by 125 miles an hour winds. Troy rushed to Donald and sat anxiously on the edge of his bed. He did his best to calm his mother, and she had to comfort him. Soon water was seeping (渗入) into the single floor house. Quickly it rose from ankle level to leg level. At Donalds insistence, they pushed their way through the water - now chest high - toward the front door. When they fought their way into the living room, water rose to their chins.It was a struggle for the boy and the mother to stay afloat. In a total panic, desperate to hold on to something, Troy caught a curtain rod. She was breathing hard, shouting that she couldnt swim.Donald cried out, “Mom! Hold on!” Just then Donald also caught a floatable wood board.1.

It was the third shark attack along the coast of Australias largest city in a month. The 15-year-old boy and his father were in the water off Avalon, on Sydneys northern beaches, around dawn when he was attacked. The citys beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months. “The father heard a scream and turned to see his son thrashing (激烈扭动) about in the water,” police said. “Fortunately, the shark swam away and the boy was helped to the shore by his father.” Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller said, “It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged him out of water.” He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to the shore. “There was a lot of pain, as you can imagine.” The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries. Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”, but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures (骨折). He was in a stable condition now. Several beaches were closed after the attack. Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark, while police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks. But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy. “I dont even know if he saw it,” Miller said. Many shark species live in the waters off Sydneys beaches, but attacks on humans are still relatively rare. However, there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month, one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor, not far from the famous Opera House, and the other on a surfer at the citys world-famous Bondi beach. Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise. There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor, which has increased fish stocks. Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment, attracting sharks closer to the shore as they chase fish. Many shark species are protected in Australian waters.4.The report mainly tells us _.Ashark attacks on humans are on the riseBsharks attacked humans three times in one monthCa boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beachDshark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydneys beaches5. What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?AIt is one of the largest cities in Australia.BSydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.CThere are many locals and tourists on its coast all the year round.DThere are few shark species in the waters off Sydneys beaches.6. About the injury of the boy we know that_.Ahe was losing much blood when he was dragged outBhe was very nervous when he was sent to hospitalChe may be in danger of losing his legDhe was injured in the right leg7. All the following are the causes of Australias sharks increasing except that_.Aenvironmental protection has created a cleaner environmentBa ban on commercial fishing has increased fish numbersCmany shark species are protected in Australian watersDthe film Jaws has made the Great White famousCEat nuts, live longer. Researchers have found that those who eat a handful of peanuts every day significantly decrease their risk of dying from all causes compared to those who do not eat nuts. A new study concludes that all types of nuts seem to be protective. Researcher Ying Bao is with the Department of Medicine at Brigham and Womens Hospital and Harvard University Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. She and her colleagues looked at the impact of nut consumption by analyzing two huge studies that began in 1980 -the Nurses Health Study, which tracks the well-being of more than 76,000 women, and 42,000 men enrolled in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study. Among the questions asked at the beginning of the studies was, “how frequently do you eat nuts?”The information was updated every two to four years. Bao says the participants were followed for three decades. “What we observed is that people who eat more nuts are less likely to die over the next 30 years,” said Bao. “So, for example, if a person eats nuts once per day, that person has a 20 percent lower risk of dying.” Bao says eating a handful of nuts five or more times per week is associated with a 29 percent reduced risk of dying from heart disease and an 11 percent lower risk of cancer death. A serving size is 28 grams. Nuts contain nutrients, including high quality proteins, vitamins and minerals, all of which have anti-cancer effects and may help protect the heart. Bao says researchers are planning studies to find out how nuts are beneficial to human health. The study on the health benefits of nuts was funded by the International Tree Nut Council Research and Education Foundation.8. People who often eat nuts _.A. are more likely to live longer than people who often eat fruitsB. dont need to go to hospitalC. may live longer than people who dont eat nutsD. dont have to do sports9.

Her research was based on two studies.C. Her research lasted about three years.D. People should eat all kinds of nuts every day.11. The passage is most probably from a journal of _ .A. entertainmentBdietCsportsDscienceDDriving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination (协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving link, driving will be affected. Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption(吸取) rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speeditup with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee. The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is: 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath; or 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine (尿液). Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested. Any driver found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving. The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) for breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse. Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.12. The first paragraph is mainly about _.A. the introduction of driving skills B. the damage of drinking to your bodyC. the effect of drinking on driving D. the process of alcohol being absorbed13. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “_”.A. alcohol B. absorption C. blood D. process14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.B. Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice.C. Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit.15. A driver suspected of drink driving _.A. should provide specimens for testingB. will be forbidden to drive for 3 yearsC. will be punished for 10 driving-offence pointsD. should pay a maximum fine of HK $25,000其次节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） 据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Going to college is a new experience full of excitement of the unknown.
