One day, when Gluebeard, the famous captain, came to town in search of young sailors, Tom made sure he was the first in line. On Gluebeard’s ship, every minute of every day was spent looking for treasure and if anyone was found reading or studying, they would be locked in a small room full of mice. And so Tom began his life as a treasure-hunting sailor, but it wasn’t easy. They hardly had enough money to buy food and clothes. One day, someone on the ship stole the only food Tom had left. Two days later, Tom was so hungry that he secretly went to the room full of mice to find one and eat it. But when he entered, he couldn’t find a single mouse. He did find a secret room, one that was full of... books! Suddenly he heard some voices and he hid away to listen... Tom was very angry. He heard Gluebeard laugh at how stupid the crew (全体船员) were, how easy it was to fool them, and how foolish and poor they would always be after leaving their studies behind. From that day on, Tom waited every night until everyone was asleep. Then he visited the room full of books, where he spent his time studying all kinds of books. Soon he found that learning about so many things gave him better ideas. After a few years, he left Gluebeard’s ship, used the money he made to buy his own boat and found his own crew. Unlike Gluebeard, however, he only chose people who studied. And instead of fooling them, he encouraged them to search for treasure with him. With so many clever people, ________. 41.

Tom first walked into the small room to ________. A. read a book B. hide away C. catch a mouse D. find the secret room 43. Why didn’t Gluebeard allow his crew to read or study? A.

Travel broadens the mind. B. Knowledge is power. C. Better late than never. D. Every coin has two sides. 6 C When you think of the sea, you may not think of Xinjiang or Inner Mongolia. But recently, the “seafood” produced in these places has become popular, especially after Japan put nuclear- contaminated water (核污染水) into the sea, reported China Daily. In Nilka county in Xinjiang, about 6,000 tons of rainbow trout (虹鳟鱼 ) will be produced this year. Rainbow trout belongs to the same family as salmon, which is a kind of well-known seafood. It tastes like salmon too. Why do farmers there choose to grow fish? The weather in some parts of Xinjiang is seldom hot, and the rivers are fed by meltwater from the Tianshan Mountains. Water deeper than 6 meters always stays at 10℃. As the meltwater is very clean and cold, it’s a “comfortable” home for fish, Li Chunyu, a worker at a fish company in Xinjiang, told China Daily. To make sure the river stays clean, the company uses machines to clean fish waste in the water. They also use net cages (网箱) that are good for the environment. The nets are about 51 meters wide and lie 25 meters deep in the river. Meanwhile, in Inner Mongolia, whiteleg shrimps, another kind of seafood, grow well. In this area, saline soil (盐碱土) covers a large part of the desert where few plants are able to grow. Farmers used to put water from the Yellow River onto the farmland to wash away the salt. This was a waste of salty water. Scientists then decided to create “seawater” with the salty water by adding in some other components (成分). Whiteleg shrimps can live well in this kind of water. They taste no different from the same kind of shrimps that grow in the sea. 46. Rainbow trout comfortably live in ________. A. any open water area B. warm and clean rivers C. salty and warm ocean D. cold and clean rivers 47. The underlined words “fed by” in the passage can be replaced by ________. A. stopped by B. connected with C. polluted by D. provided with 48. To avoid water pollution caused by growing fish, the company ________. A. feeds the fish with machines B. grows fish in certain water areas C. grows one kind of fish once a year D. cuts down the fish production 49. Why are whiteleg shrimps introduced in the passage? A. To show the importance of rivers to a country. B. To introduce the safety of eating inland “seafood”. C. To compare it with common whiteleg shrimps. D. To show another “seafood” grown without using the sea. 50. What is the hidden message of the passage? A. Life will not be different without seafood. B. Xinjiang is rich in natural resources. C. China won’t be short of fishery products. D. Few plants can grow in the desert of Inner Mongolia. 7 D Can plants talk? Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals (化学物质) to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked (攻击) by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: I’m being attacked! These chemicals can’t be noticed by people but can be picked up by other plants. When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps (黄蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. That’s why the first plant is usually found hurt while the neighbors stay well. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system so that we can use it to grow more crops. More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Corn and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water. Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can connect nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. The wood wide web is connected underground by fungi (霉菌). It connects the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it can lead to bad effects. Plants can use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web. Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to talk with them ourselves. 51. What will plants do when they are being attacked by insects according to the passage? A. They will kill the insects by themselves. B. They will control the wasps to kill the insects. C. They will let their neighbors know what’s happening. D. They will produce chemicals to drive the insects away. 52.What do we know about the system of communication of plants in a forest? A. The plants in a forest are connected by the Internet we use. B. The “wood wide web” is built by joining the roots of the plants. C. Scientists hope to make a “firewall” to protect the system from being attacked by insects. D. The “wood wide web” can be both helpful and harmful to the connected plants. 53. What is the writer’s purpose of the last paragraph? A. To give people hope for further studies. B. To praise scientists for their great achievements. C. To call on people to do deeper research on nature. D. To encourage people to talk to plants. 54. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about plants according to the passage? 8 A. Some trees make clicking sound when they need water. B. Scientists suggest that people should create a better environment for plants to grow well. C. Usually the same harm cannot be seen on a plant and its neighboring plants. D. All the plant communication methods mentioned in the passage can hardly be noticed by people. 55. How does the writer’s “surprise” about the plant communication develop? A. B. C. D.
