Along a long path we came to a deep valley, on the far side of which the path led into some very thick bushes. Rather than push through up again and rejoin the path on the far side of the bushes.
As I climbed down into the valley a bird flew off h rock on which I had put my hand. On looking at the spot from which the bird had risen, I saw two eggs. They were the kind that I did not have in my collection, so I placed them carefully in my bag, wrapped in a little dry grass.
As we went further down the valley the sides became steeper and not far from where I had entered. It came to drop of about twelve to fourteen feet. The water that rushed down all these small valleys in the rainy season had worn the rock as glass. As it was too deep to climb down, I handed my gun to one of the men and slid down it. My feet had hardly touched the sandy bottom when the two men jumped down, one on each side of me. They quickly gave me the gun and asked me if I had heard the tiger. In fact, I had heard nothing; possibly because of the noise I made sliding down the rock. The men said they had heard a tiger growling somewhere nearby, but they did not know from which direction the noise had come.

答案

小题1:B
小题2:B
小题3:B
小题4:C
解析

小题1:综合推理题。整篇文章向我们介绍了作者如何穿越山谷的探险经历。A,C,D三项只是在他旅途过程中的小插曲,并不是他探险的最终目的,所以应排除。
小题2:句意理解题。答案见第二段最后一句。
小题3:细节理解题。由最后一段倒数第三句可知道那两个人开始听到了老虎的声音,后来觉得声音近了,但是他们始终没有看见老虎。
小题4:内容排序题。文章第一段提到了穿越灌木丛,然后走到山谷,在山谷中发现鸟蛋,然后又听到老虎的叫声,所以正确的顺序应是“bushes”、“valley”和“find eggs”,最后是“hear the sound of tiger”。

Life on-line can be a much richer experience when you aren’t restricted to just written words and still pictures.Even if you’re new to the Net,you’ve probably heard about multimedia on-line—listening to audio,watching animations and videos,even playing in three-dimensional space.Sound and movement make information come alive.
To experience it,you’ll need special pieces of software called plug-ins.The term “plug-in” refers to a small,add-on piece of software which extends the capabilities of your web browser,like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer,turning your computer into a radio or TV.
When you arrive at a web page which contains a file requiring a plug-in which you don’t have,you will usually receive a message asking if you want to get it by downloading it and installing it into your computer.Most of the time,the installation will be automatic.
Occasionally,you’ll run into a downloaded file which needs to be decompressed or un-zipped before installation.Once installed,plug-ins run automatically,without you having to do anything.
Many multimedia controls still need to be obtained from the developer but are installed automatically.
Shockwave is a good example of this.All you need to do is go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the ActiveX control.The rest happens automatically.The next time you go to a “Shocked” website,the Shockwave control loads and plays the movie.
Most plug-ins and controls can be downloaded for free on the Internet,although not all will work with every system.Some of them,for instance,only work with Windows 95.
小题1:Plug-ins can help us to do all of the following except _________.
A.listening to music
B.watching animations and videos
C.playing three-dimensioned games
D.searching for information on the net
小题2:The correct explanation about “plug-in” is _________.
A.a radio or TV connected with a computer
B.a small,add-on piece of hardware which improves your web browser
C.a small,add-on piece of software which can turn your computer into a radio or TV
D.a small,add-on piece of software like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer
小题3:When we go to a “shocked” website a second time,_________.
A.we should go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the Active X control
B.the shockwave control loads itself and plays the movie for us
C.we will be asked whether to download the shockwave control or not
D.we have to buy the shockwave control and load it
小题4:Most of the time,how can we get a plug-in before automatic installation?
A.We have to buy it from the developer.
B.We have to borrow it from the developer.
C.We have to rent it from the developer.
D.We can obtain from the developer without paying.

Some time people call each other “scared-cat”,but have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense,and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream.Although the cat doesn"t realize this,its body is getting ready for action.If the danger continues,the animal will do one of two things:It will defend itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.
Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry,scared,or aroused by other emotions (feelings),our bodied go through many physical changes.Out hearts beat faster,and our muscled get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings,however,have a problem that animals never face.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger—or hit somebody—and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher,told somebody you were lonely,or said you were in love,and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn"t always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it"s smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger,sadness,and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illness can develop,and you can feel churned up inside.It can actually be bad for your health.(It isn"t good to keep pleasant feelings inside either;all feelings need to be expressed.)
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don"t just go away.It"s as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you"d smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are you"d see little fruit flies hovering all over them.They"d be rotten.
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don"t exist,but they"ll still be around.And at last you"ll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.
小题1:The best title for this article is _________.
A.Emotions Affect Our BodiesB.What Happens to a Frightened Cat

小题2:The underlined words “churned up” in the fourth paragraph mean _________.
A.gradually they"ll disappearB.they won"t exist any more

A.tell us that it isn"t good to keep feelings inside
B.give us some advice on how to express our feelings
C.make us face the problem that we have to deal with feelings
D.make us know that it isn"t always wise to express our feelings freely

Interview With God
I dreamed I had an interview with God.“So you would like to interview me?”God asked.“If you have the time,”I said.“My time is eternity.”God smiled,“what questions do you have in mind for me?”“What surprises you most about humankind?”God answered,“That they get bored with childhood,they rush to grow up,and then long to be children again.That they lose their health to make money... and then lose their money to restore their health.That by thinking anxiously about the future,they forget the present,such that they live in neither the present nor the future.That they live as if they will never die,and die as though they had never lived.”God’s hand took mine and we were silent for a while.And then I asked,“As a parent,what are some of life’s lessons you want your children to learn?To learn they cannot make anyone love them.All they can do is to let themselves be loved.To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others.To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love,and it can take many years to heal them.To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most,but is one who needs the least.To learn that there are people who love them dearly,but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings.To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently.To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another,but they must also forgive themselves.”“Thank you for your time,”I said humbly.“Is there anything else you would like your children to know?”God smiled and said;“Just know that I am here always.”
