The earth seemed to shake. The woman didn’t look for shelter (庇护处) . Instead, she drove on. She seemed to be in a big hurry. Suddenly her car broke down. It was 11:30 pm! She stood on the side of the highway, needing a ride. She was wet through. A car passed by but didn’t stop. The helpless woman had to flag down (挥手拦下) the next car. At last a young white man stopped to help her. This was generally unheard of in those days as there was a conflict (冲突) between black people and white people. The man took her to safety, helped her and put her into a taxi. She wrote down his address, thanked him, and left in a hurry. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man’s door. To his surprise, a big color TV was delivered (邮递) to his home. A special note said: Thank you so much for helping me on the highway the other night.

She looked up, and found the White Rabbit was still in front. She was close behind it when she turned the corner, but she no longer saw the Rabbit. She found herself in a long, low hall. There were doors all around the hall, but they were all locked (锁上). Alice walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she got out again. Suddenly, she came upon a little three-legged table. There was nothing on it but a tiny (极小的) golden key, and Alice’s first idea was that this might belong to one of the doors of the hall. But, alas! Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain (帘子) she had not noticed before and behind it was a little door.

Colors help them know how far the place is and what it is like so that they can catch flying things in the air or land on something they think safe. Birds can “tell” the differences between colors. But for some other animals, such as wolves, the world looks like a black and white photo. Wolves look for food mainly by listening. They can hear clearly when the animals they hunt move. But other animals seem to know this. For example, a rabbit will stop moving when it finds there is something dangerous. Then the wolves may not find it at all. However, birds are better than wolves in these ways. They can see dead insects (昆虫) from far away. Some birds’ eyesight is better than people’s. They can see small insects when they fly in the sky. Because they are able to see colors, they can find food easily and find out if there are other animals that are dangerous to them. 47. Which is true about birds according to the passage? 　 　 ①Colors can help them to find places to land. ②Colors can only let birds know how long the place is. ③Colors can let them catch flying things in the air and land safely. A. ①②③ B. ①② C. ②③ D. ①③ 48. What is the difference between birds and wolves? A. Birds can tell the differences between colors, but wolves cannot. B. Wolves can just see black and white things, but birds can see all kinds of colors. C. If other animals stop moving, wolves may not see where they are, but birds are better than wolves in this way. D. Wolves can see insects although they are far from them. 49. From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A. Birds can hear more clearly than wolves. B People’s eyesight may be not good as some birds’. C. If birds cannot see colors, they will not be able to find food. D. Birds will never be attacked (袭击) by other dangerous animals because they can see colors. Bottle gourd pyrography (葫芦烙画) is an art of burning pictures on the surface of the gourds (葫芦). The skill known as pyrography dates back more than 2,200 years ago to the Qin Dynasty. The gourd has long been considered to bring good luck, because in Chinese the word for “gourd” sounds like the words for “blessing and wealth”. It was often used to store food, ladle water or hold water when people went out. Its shape made it a perfect tool in the past. In ancient times, many doctors used it to hold medicine and hung it in front of their clinics (诊所). Skilled artists can turn common gourds into artworks. The first step is to pick a golden gourd. Then the artist draws a creative picture on the gourd. Finally, he usually takes advantage of (利用) the natural shape of the gourd, burning the pictures with electric category pens. This is the most difficult step. If there is any mistake in this step, all the work will go back to the beginning. Zheng Xiaoliang from Anhui has been working on the gourd art for more than 40 years. “The gourd pyrography is difficult with a pyrography brush to create a wonderful picture and it requires skills in painting,” Zheng said. “If you want to learn this kind of art, you need to...” 50. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The medicine. B. The bottle gourd. C. The clinic. D. The picture. 51. Which step might be the most difficult to finish a gourd pyrography? A. Picking. B. Drawing. C. Burning. D. Copying. 52. What may Zheng talk about in the last paragraph? A. The future of the bottle gourd pyrography. B. The value of the bottle gourd pyrography. C How to spread the bottle gourd pyrography. D. How to learn the bottle gourd pyrography. 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题后面的词数要求）。 Jenny used to get angry at everything. Once she found if she tried to work out one problem, another one followed at once.

Birds need to see colors when they fly because they need to find places to land (着陆). Colors help them know how far the place is and what it is like so that they can catch flying things in the air or land on something they think safe. Birds can “tell” the differences between colors. But for some other animals, such as wolves, the world looks like a black and white photo. Wolves look for food mainly by listening. They can hear clearly when the animals they hunt move. But other animals seem to know this. For example, a rabbit will stop moving when it finds there is something dangerous. Then the wolves may not find it at all. However, birds are better than wolves in these ways. They can see dead insects (昆虫) from far away. Some birds’ eyesight is better than people’s. They can see small insects when they fly in the sky. Because they are able to see colors, they can find food easily and find out if there are other animals that are dangerous to them. 47. Which is true about birds according to the passage? 　 　 ①Colors can help them to find places to land. ②Colors can only let birds know how long the place is. ③Colors can let them catch flying things in the air and land safely. A. ①②③ B. ①② C. ②③ D. ①③ 48. What is the difference between birds and wolves? A. Birds can tell the differences between colors, but wolves cannot. B. Wolves can just see black and white things, but birds can see all kinds of colors. C. If other animals stop moving, wolves may not see where they are, but birds are better than wolves in this way. D. Wolves can see insects although they are far from them. 49. From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A. Birds can hear more clearly than wolves. B. People’s eyesight may be not good as some birds’. C. If birds cannot see colors, they will not be able to find food. D. Birds will never be attacked (袭击) by other dangerous animals because they can see colors. 【答案】47. D 48. C 49. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍鸟类的视力。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Birds need to see colors when they fly because they need to find places to land. Colors help them know how far the place is and what it is like so that they can catch flying things in the air or land on something they think safe.”(鸟类在飞行时需要看到颜色，因为它们需要找到着陆的地方。颜色帮助他们知道这个地方有多远，它是什么样子，这样他们就可以抓住空中飞行的东西或降落在他们认为安全的地方。)可知颜色可以帮助鸟类找到着陆的地方、颜色可以让它们抓住空中的飞行物，安全着陆。故选D。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“For example，a rabbit will stop moving when it finds there is something dangerous.Then the wolves may not find it at all.However，birds are better than wolves in these ways.They can see dead insects(昆虫) from far away.”(例如，当兔子发现有危险时，它会停止移动。那么狼群可能根本找不到它。然而，鸟类在这些方面比狼更好。他们可以从很远的地方看到死昆虫。)可知如果其他动物停止移动，狼可能看不到他们在哪里，但鸟类在这方面比狼更好。故选C。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Some birds’ eyesight is better than people’s.”(有些鸟的视力比人好。)可知人的视力可能不如某些鸟类。故选B。 Bottle gourd pyrography (葫芦烙画) is an art of burning pictures on the surface of the gourds (葫芦). The skill known as pyrography dates back more than 2,200 years ago to the Qin Dynasty. The gourd has long been considered to bring good luck, because in Chinese the word for “gourd” sounds like the words for “blessing and wealth”. It was often used to store food, ladle water or hold water when people went out. Its shape made it a perfect tool in the past. In ancient times, many doctors used it to hold medicine and hung it in front of their clinics (诊所). Skilled artists can turn common gourds into artworks. The first step is to pick a golden gourd. Then the artist draws a creative picture on the gourd. Finally, he usually takes advantage of (利用) the natural shape of the gourd, burning the pictures with electric category pens. This is the most difficult step. If there is any mistake in this step, all the work will go back to the beginning. Zheng Xiaoliang from Anhui has been working on the gourd art for more than 40 years. “The gourd pyrography is difficult with a pyrography brush to create a wonderful picture and it requires skills in painting,” Zheng said. “If you want to learn this kind of art, you need to...” 50. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The medicine. B. The bottle gourd. C. The clinic. D. The picture. 51. Which step might be the most difficult to finish a gourd pyrography? A Picking. B. Drawing. C. Burning. D. Copying. 52. What may Zheng talk about in the last paragraph? A. The future of the bottle gourd pyrography. B. The value of the bottle gourd pyrography. C. How to spread the bottle gourd pyrography. D. How to learn the bottle gourd pyrography. 【答案】50. B 51. C 52.
