二、阅读理解
A
When a man admitted he pretended to be Bigfoot，many thought the question was answered.However，others disagree.
Since the late 1800s，more than 3,000 sightings of Bigfoot have been recorded in the United States and Canada.The reports describe a tall and hairy creature that walks on two feet and has long arms and a short neck.The tracks show that their feet are around 16 inches long and 7 inches wide on average.
Jeff Meldrum，a professor at Idaho State University，has collected more than 200 tracks.He admits some of the tracks are false.But the majority，he says，are quite similar—five toes(脚趾)on each foot.
The fact that the Bigfoot skeleton(骨骼)has never been found doesn’t discourage the researchers.“We’re finding new fossil species all the time，”Meldrum says.“It only takes one to convince people Bigfoot exists.”
Many Bigfoot researchers say the 1967 video of a tall and hairy creature proves that Bigfoot exists.But in 2002，a man said he was the Bigfoot in the video.Could Bigfoot be descended from Gigantopithecus(是巨猿的后裔)？Researchers say yes.But its fossils are found only in Asia，and there’s no evidence it lived anywhere else.“We have no fossils of this creature in North America，”says Professor David Daegling of the University of Florida.
In fact，tracks are the only physical evidence of Bigfoot，but many scientists say they can’t be trusted.“There are three­，four­，and five­toed varieties，”Daegling says.And considering the number of the reported sightings，critics say that humans should have had some unpleasant meetings with the creatures，such as hitting one while driving a car.“The biggest argument against Bigfoot is that we don’t have a single body，”Daegling says.
“What we have to ask about the Bigfoot evidence is，‘Is it possible that a human being could have produced this？’”Daegling says.
大脚兽(Bigfoot)是否存在？一些人认为大脚兽存在，但他们没有找到令人信服的证据；一些人则认为大脚兽并不存在，他们怀疑大脚兽是人们捏造出来的。
1．The underlined part in the first paragraph suggests that“______”．
A．few people would trust the man again
B．few people were confused about the question
C．many people no longer cared about Bigfoot
D．many people didn’t believe Bigfoot exists
解析：句意理解题。根据文章首句可知，当有人承认是他伪装了大脚兽的时候，许多人都认为这个问题的答案已经揭晓了；再根据后文可知，这个问题指的即是大脚兽是否存在。因此可知，画线部分暗示的意思为：许多人相信大脚兽并不存在。
答案：D
2．What can we learn from the passage?
A．No Bigfoot fossils have been found yet.
B．The tracks of Bigfoot were made by people.
C．Jeff Meldrum has found 3,000 tracks of Bigfoot.
D．Gigantopithecus once lived in North America.
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段“‘We’re finding new fossil species all the time，’Meldrum says.‘It only takes one to convince people Bigfoot exists.’”可知，杰夫·马尔杜姆(Jeff Meldrum)说道他们一直在寻找新化石种，只要他们能找到一块大脚兽的化石，就能说服人们相信大脚兽是存在的。由此可以推知，人们还没有找到大脚兽的化石。
答案：A
3．What attitude does David Daegling hold towards the existence of Bigfoot?
A．Sceptical.　　　　　　B．Curious.
C．Positive. D．Subjective.
4．The best title for the passage could be“______”．
A．Does Bigfoot Exist?
B．Where does Bigfoot come from?
C．How many toes does Bigfoot have?
D．Is Bigfoot the descendant of Gigantopithecus?
解析：标题判断题。本文主要谈论的话题是：大脚兽是否存在。
答案：A
B
Would you like to have a 1.5­meter­long alligator(短嘴鳄)drop in as a guest？If not，then surely you will sympathize with this Brazilian lady who found a terrifying alligator beside her 3­year­old son in her living room.Picking up her child，the frightened woman immediately called the firefighters who helped her get rid of the uninvited guest.
The heavy rains in the north central town of Parauapebas city in Para state of Brazil have caused flood water to enter the residential area(住宅区)．The Para state is located in the northern part of the country near the Amazon River and the tropical rainforest(热带雨林)．The climate of this area is classified as tropical rainforest climate in which there are no dry seasons.It is usually hot and wet throughout the year and the rainfall is both heavy and frequent.Thus it is not uncommon for creatures like snakes and alligators to enter people’s homes with flood water.
The firefighters trapped the 5­foot­long alligator alive and later released it in a nearby environmental preserve.According to the firefighter，Luiz Farias，the alligator had obviously been washed inside the house by the high water after the heavy rainfall in the area.
When the lady returned home，she noticed the presence of the unwelcome guest behind the sofa by her little son.Her son was busy petting(爱抚)the alligator on its head.Luckily for the family，the alligator seemed to have a full stomach while it played with the boy.Otherwise，the child could have been seriously hurt or even killed by his newfound friend，because a hungry alligator would eat just about anything.

一位巴西女士在家中发现了一条短嘴鳄，她立即打电话向消防队员求救，请走了这位不速之客。
5．Why did the Brazilian lady feel frightened?
A．Because her house was on fire due to an alligator.
B．Because she couldn’t find her child in her house.
C．Because there were only she and her son at home.
D．Because she thought her child was in danger.
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段“...this Brazilian lady who found a terrifying alligator beside her 3­year­old son in her living room.”可知，这位巴西女士发现她儿子身边有一条短嘴鳄，她觉得她的孩子有危险，因此而感到害怕。
答案：D
6．What is the weather usually like in Parauapebas?
A．Bright and warm. B．Cloudy and windy.
C．Hot and rainy. D．Snowy and cold.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“The heavy rains in the north central town of Parauapebas city in Para state of Brazil...The Para state is located in the northern part of the country...The climate of this area is classified as tropical rainforest climate in which there are no dry seasons.It is usually hot and wet throughout the year and the rainfall is both heavy and frequent.”可知，帕劳阿佩巴斯(Parauapebas)是巴西帕拉州(Para)的一个城市，帕拉州的气候属于热带雨林气候，这里炎热、潮湿，降雨大而且频繁。因此可知，帕劳阿佩巴斯市的天气经常炎热、多雨。
答案：C
7．What can we know about the alligator?
A．It might enjoy the boy’s company.
B．It was killed by the firefighters at last.
C．It was caught after much of the firefighters’effort.
D．It didn’t do the boy any harm although it was hungry.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“Her son was busy petting the alligator on its head...Otherwise，the child could have been seriously hurt or even killed by his newfound friend...”可知，这个小男孩儿爱抚了这条短嘴鳄的头，但短嘴鳄却没有攻击他。因此可以推知，这条短嘴鳄可能喜欢这个小男孩陪着它。
答案：A
8．The passage can be classified as ______.
A．a news story
