B By April,I thought myself quite set indeed.My home was neat and I even had an accidental farm.I shot birds and goats.I saved one goat,and it became a pet. I was in my cave one day when the roof began to fall'down.I was very frightened and ran out and over the fence.As soon as I was out,I realized that an earthquake was happening.The ground shook many times.Suddenly, a huge rock about half a mile from me split in two.A great piece tumbled down the mountain.My fear grew to my heart.Rock could fall on me at any moment.I thought all my work would be destroyed.

There is the case of Ivan Mishukov,a 6-year-old boy from Moscow.Police found him living with dogs in the city's streets in 1998.There,he had been begging for two years.Ivan found food to feed the dogs.And in return, the dogs kept him warm and protected him while he slept.When he was saved,he could hardly speak.Luckily,he later joined the army and lived like a normal adult. But not all children who are raised by animals can adapt to human society.In 1848,British soldier Colonel William Sleeman found a little boy living with many wolves in India.He took him to a village,taking care of him and trying to teach him to speak.But nothing worked.The boy still behaved like a wolf,eating raw (meat and refusing to wear clothes,no matter how cold the weather was.About two years later,he got very sick and passed away. Some animals are believed to have strong maternal instincts(母性本能)，which guide them to care for young animals,even those of other species ()However,people need to know that children raised by animals may experience long-term negative effects when they enter human society,according to Daily Mail. 39.Ivan Mishukov was raised by A.wolves B.monkeys C.dogs D.bears 40.What could the dogs do for Ivan? A.They begged food for him B.They warmed him C.They talked with him D.They took him to join the army CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描Ap 41.The case of the boy raised by wolves shows us that children raised by animals A.can learn from animals B.can live longer C.can speak animal language D.may harm human beings 42.What did the Daily Mail say? A.Animals can take good care of human babies. B.Some animals have strong maternal instincts. C.Some animals can't tell themselves apart from other species. D.Children raised by animals are stronger than other people. Most people around the world are right-handed.This also seems to be true in history.In 1799,scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C.to the 1950s.Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed,so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history.Today,only about 10%to 15%of the world's population is left-handed. Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones?Scientists now know that a person's two hands each have their own jobs.For most people,the left hand is used to find things or hold things.The right hand is used to work with things.This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain.The right side of the brain,which makes a person's hands and eyes work together,controls the left hand.The left side of the brain, which controls the right hand,is the centre for thinking and doing problems.These findings show that more artists should be left-handed,and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs. No one really knows what makes a person become right -handed instead of left-handed.Scientists have found that almost 40%of the people become left-handed because their brain is damaged at birth when they are born.However,this doesn't happen to everyone,so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed.One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents.If a person does not receive the gene (for right-handedness,he/she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with. Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness,people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual.A long time ago,left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children,but today they don't have to. 43.How many people in the world are left-handed now? A.Less than one sixth. B.More than half. C.About 40%. D.The passage doesn't tell us. 44.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true? A.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed. B.Left-handed people are cleverer than right-handed people. C.Today children are not made to use their right hands only. D.Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed. 45.The best title for this passage is A.Scientists'New Inventions B.Left-handed People C.Which Hand D.Different Brains,Different Hands 第二部分 非选择题（共40分） CS扫描全能王 可壁3亿人都在用的扫描Ap 一、词汇（每题1分，共13分） 第一节根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。 每空限填一词。 1.As a result of the long joumey,their (were so empty that even a piece of dry bread seemed tasty. 2.Those who are blind to beauty will never feel its charm.He who has never visited here would never feel its beauty, (也). 3.We shouldn't （期待)to leam a new language well without practicing every day. 4.The old man never uses an (when he makes mistakes;instead,he learns from them and makes progress 5.My little brother has f over many times since he started learning to ride a bike. 6.To my surprise,huge a of volunteers came to clean up the beach every week. 7.It is n for us to wait in line and keep quiet in the library. 8.A true friend is someone who can understand your feelings without any words.Sometimes silence is the best e 第二节请认真阅读下面短文，从方框中选择适当的单词或短语，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，填入其正确形 式。每个单词或短语仅用一次。 achieve avoid volunteer kind success Volunteering at a local old people's home has changed my life a lot.Last year,I was a shy student who didn't like to talk with others.One day,my teacher asked us to do some community service.I chose to go to the Sunshine Nursing Home.
