Crouch said a groomer tied Gooch up with a collar，and then she and a man sat on the dog to trim its nails.Gooch died after one claw was trimmed.Crouch yelled at the groomer to stop when she saw Gooch was struggling to breathe，but she said she was ignored.“If I could have walked，I would have put my hands on her and pulled her off my dog and physically stopped her，but I cant do that.” Gooch was not a trained service animal，but naturally helped Crouch by picking up things for her.“This case is absolute animal abuse(虐待)，” Larry Obrecht，division manager of the Oakland County Animal Shelter in Auburn Hills，said.People who read the story contacted Oakland Press to offer help.A message，from Rebecca Amett of Giggles N Wiggles PuppyRescue，in Roseville，said，“We have puppies to donate and want to help the young woman who lost her service dog.”“When Gooch was with me，I was happy，” Crouch said.“I think I can be happy again but no animal can replace Gooch.Theres never going to be another Gooch out there but I think I will find a dog that can bring me joy again.”36.

What do we know about Crouchs dog?AIt was a specially trained service dog.BIt was trained to do many things for people.CIt could offer some help to Crouch DIt was Crouchs only friend.40. We can infer from the passage that _.ACrouch refused to take another dogBCrouch must be sad after losing her dog CCrouch has accepted another dog from a strangerDCrouch can live well without a dogs company B Late in the summer of 1992, Scot Kraus and Moira Brown were in Canada , eating pizza with some coworkers. Suddenly , the restaurants owner came into the dining room and asked :“Is there a Scott Kraus ? There is a phone call for you .” They were in southern Nova Scotia , about 150 kilometers( 93 miles ) southeast of Maine. It was practically the middle of nowhere ,Kraus thought. Who could possibly know he was there, and what could be so important ? After taking the call , he returned with terrible news. A dead right whale had been seen near Grand Manna Island , on the western side of the Bay of Fundy . This is near the border between Maine and Canada. Kraus and Brown are biologists with the New England Aquarium in Boston . They study the North Atlantic right whale , one of the worlds rarest species. Some cruise ( 巡航 )along the coastlines of North America ; other live off of Europe. Together , their numbers totaled fewer than 350 in 1992 , so losing even one was troubling. The next morning , the scientists set sail to view the whale, hoping they could figure out how it died. As her carcass came into view, they sadly recognized that they knew this whale . It was one they had earlier named Delilah. It appeared the 13-meter-long animal had been accidentally hit by one of the ships that regularly sail through the Bay of Fundy. The biggest ones can be as tall as 10-story buildings, span more than 300 meters and weigh tens of thousands tons . These ships cruise much faster than a 37-metric-ton right whale can swim. Even if a captain saw a right whale in his path, it could take a half hour to bring the ship to a stop. Delilah never stood a chance. Later that day, Brown and Kraus talked to others who had seen the dead whale. One storekeeper brought out pictures he had taken. The biologists could make out a small calf(幼鲸) in the photos . It had been swimming beside Delilahs body. 41. What did Kraus feel when hearing a call for him ? A. Worried B. Angry C. Excited D. Puzzled 42. Which word has the same with the underlined word in paragraph 5 ? A. dead body B. baby whale C. storekeepers picture D. the big ship 43. What caused the death of the right whale ? A. the hunt of sailors B. the water pollution C. the bad weather D. a big ship 44. If the passage continues, what will be the following topic ?A. To protect the right whales. B. To deal with the dead whale. C. To collect some information about the calf . D. To call on the ships reduce their speed.四、短文改错（共10分）假段定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号()，并在其下面写出该加的词。 删除：把多余的词用()划掉。 修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。 注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词； 2 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。My mother is in her forty and has long curly hair and big bright eyes. She often wears a happy smile on her round face. Whenever I met with difficulty she always offers me advice and encouragements to get through them Once I failed in a math exam, I was terrible upset and also worried what she would be very angry. Not blamed me, she helped me find out the reasons, then chose some similar examples to explain me. With her help, I made many great progress in my math.

According to a recent survey, about 85.5 percent of middle school students think that their handwriting is poor. Yet for various reasons, many students dont want to improve their handwriting. 51.5 percent of the students think that they can just use a computer, so there is no need to waste time improving their handwriting, and 32.3 percent believe that they are so busy with the study that they do not have time to practise. 10.9 percent think that practising handwriting is useless. As the saying goes, writing style shows the man. Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial, especially for middle school students. Therefore, in my opinion, more emphasis should be placed on this aspect in future
