其次部分 阅读理解 （共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The hand, the eyes, and the brain work together to make human beings different from other animals. No other animals have all three parts to work together. No animals can do what human beings can do. Humans can do many things and feel many things with the hand. The hand can hold onto things and make things because the thumb works with the fingers. This fifth finger is strong. Most animals don’t have thumbs. The thumb can press against the other fingers. Without a thumb to press against the fingers, it is difficult to hold onto anything. The thumb and fingers can also fit the flat surface of a box and the curved (不平的) surface of a pencil. We can feel that something is hot or cold, soft or hard, smooth or rough. The hand, with thumb and fingers, is one of the best tools we have. Most animals see a flat picture. Their eyes can only see how high and how wide something is. Some animals see a different picture with each eye. Some don’t see in colour. Humans see one picture with both eyes working together. We can see how high and how wide something is. We can also see how far in front of or in back of something a thing is. The brain tells other parts of the body how to work. Some of the things the body does are automatic; that is, we don’t have to think about them. For example, we don’t have to think to make our heart eat or our stomach work. The brain tells the eyes and hands how to make useful and beautiful things. That is how human beings become tool makers and artists. That is how human can have richer and better lives than other animals.
21. Human beings are different from other animals because ___________
A. human beings have the hands, the eyes, and the brain working all the time
B. the hands, the eyes, and the brain of the human can work together

D. you have it in your hand and keep it there by putting your fingers firmly round it
23.The author tells us that no animals can do what humans can do. He gives quite a few facts to support the idea. One of them is that _____.
A. most animals don’t see in colour
B. the humans see a thing with both eyes working together

Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don’t know them so well as their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.
However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice” is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions?
Who chooses your friends?

A Narrow Escape
Shortly after the war, my brother and I were invited to spend a few days’ holiday with an uncle who had just returned from abroad. He had rented (租) a cottage in the country, although he hardly spent much time there. We understood the reason for this after our arrival: the cottage had no comfortable furniture in it. Many of the windows were broken and the roof leaked (漏水), making the whole house wet．
On our first evening, we sat around the fire after supper listening to the stories our uncle told of his many adventures in distant countries. I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed; but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle’s exciting stories. He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had once had when there was a loud crash(倒塌声) from the bedroom above, the one where my brother and I were going to sleep．
When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door, a strange sight met our eyes. A large part of the ceiling had fallen right onto the pillow（枕头）of my bed．

Drinking water is so important for good health. When in school, you learned what water is made up of. 36 However, what you may not have learned is how much water you need in order to be a healthy human being.
As we all know, 60% to 70% of the body is water. Your body needs water to control body temperature and to carry nutrients(养分素) to all parts of the body. 37_ When you are very active, for example, playing football, you’ll lose more water. If you don’t drink water immediately, it will do harm to your health.
38 Take your body weight in pounds and divide(划分) that number in half. That gives you the number of ounces(盎司) of water that you need to drink per day. For example, if you weigh 160 pounds, you should drink at least 80 ounces of water per day. If you exercise you should drink another eight-ounce glass of water for every 20 minutes you are active. As you can see, your daily need for water can add up to quite a lot.
Twenty percent of your water need will come from the foods you eat. 39 Water is the best choice. Sodas have a lot of sugar in them, so if you drink sodas, you may take in more calories(卡路里)than you need.__40__
A. Why do you need to drink water?
B. The rest should come from what you drink.
C. How much water do you need to drink every day?
D. Juices are good because they have lots of nutrients.
E. Now let’s take a look at where your water need come from.
F. Water can also play an important part in protecting your body.
G. You also learned how it is important to our body.
