Here I’d like to talk about how to develop your curiosity and make use of it to make discoveries. Asking questions is the first step to make discoveries and find interesting answers when you are curious about something and want to know more about it.
   Firstly, write down the subject that you are interested in on a note card or piece of paper. Just put the main idea down, such as “Discover more about dinosaurs.”
   Next, think for a moment about what you already know about your subject and list information  like the sentences below:
1. Dinosaurs lived long before human beings appeared.
2. Dinosaurs lived on the earth for more than 150 million years.
3. Some dinosaurs fed on plants, some on meat.
    Thirdly, ask yourself “What can I do with what I want to learn?” On your paper, start writing down questions about the dinosaurs as you think of them:
1. What’s the best weather for dinosaurs to live in?
2. How many kinds of dinosaurs are there?
3. Have dinosaurs really disappeared?

Fourthly, armed with your list of questions, you can now visit the nearest library or turn to computer to begin your research. As you learn more about your subject, you’ll probably discover some new questions.
   For example, you might discover that dinosaurs disappeared about 65 million years ago. Why? What happened? Asking new questions can help you research your subject more deeply.
   The next time you find something interesting to research, take time to organize your thinking by asking good questions. And remember—learning more always bring more questions.
68. While doing some research, you should take the following steps__________ .
   ①list what you want to know 

②choose a research subject
   ③list what you already know 

④discover new problems
   A.①④③②      B. ①②④③     C.②③①④       D.②①④③

69. What does the underlined sentence “Armed with your list of questions” mean?
   A.Taking your list of questions with you to do more research
   B.Writing down your list of questions before turn to the computer
   C.Discussing your questions with your classmates for solution
   D.Putting your questions aside before going to the library

70. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
   A. You can find all the answers online.
   B. Learn more, and you’ll have no questions.
   C. Asking questions is the only way for research

   D. During the research, more questions may arise.
71. The best title for this passage is_______________ .
   A.Discovering Dinosaurs                    B.Asking Good Questions
   C.Finding Suitable Subjects                     D.Having Interesting Answers

科目:高中英語 來源:2012屆江蘇省高二下學期期末考試(英語) 題型:閱讀理解

In this voyage I visited my new colony on the island, saw the Spaniards(西班牙人), had the whole story of their lives and of the villains(罪犯) I left there; how at first they treated the poor Spaniards badly,·how they afterwards agreed, disagreed, unired, separated, and how at last the Spaniards were forced to use violence with them; how they gave in to the spaniards, how honestly the Spaniards used them ---- a history, if it were entered into, as full of variety and wonderful accidents as my own part ---- particularly, also, as to their battles with the Caribbeans, who landed several times upon the Island, and as to the improvement they made upon the Island itself, and how five of them made an attempt upon the main land, and brought away eleven men and five women prisoners, by which, at my coming, I found about twenty young children on the Island.

Here I stayed bout 20 days, left them supplies of all necessary things, and particularly of arms, powder, shot, cloths, tools, and two workmen, which I brought from England with me, namely a carpenter and a smith.

Besides this, I shared the Island into parts with them, reserved to myself the property of whole  but gave them such parts resoeetively as they agreed on; and having settled all things with them and encouraged them not to leave the place, I left them there.

From then on I landed the Brazils, from where I sent a bark, which I bought there, with more people to the island; and in it, besides other supplies, I sent seven women, being such persons as I found proper for service, or for wives to such as would take them. As to the Englishmen, I promised them to send them some women from England, with a good cargo(船貨) of necessaries, if they would apply themselves to planting ---- which I afterwards could not perform. And the fellows proved very honest and diligent after they were mastered and had their properties set apart for them. I sent them also from the Brazils five cows, three of them being big with calf, some sheep, and some pigs, which when I came again were considerably increased.

But all these things, with an account how 300 Caribbeans came and invaded(入侵) them, and ruined their plantations, and how they fought with that whole number twice, and were at first defeated, and one of them killed; but at last a storm destroying most of their enemies’ boats, they destroyed almost all the rest, and renewed and recovered the possession of their plantation, and still lived upon the Island.

All these things, with some very surprising incidents in some new adventures of my own,  for ten years more, I may perhaps give a further account of the story.

 

1.From Paragraph l, we know _______ .

A. the Spaniards were always getting along well with the villains

B. the Spaniards were always the rulers of the island

C. the Spaniards and the villains both ruled the island peacefully

D. the Spaniards and the villains once had battles witll each other

2.In Paragraph 2, the place where I stayed was probably ________.

A. a wild island                     B. a deserted downtown

C. a primitive supermarket           D. a new city

3.The underlined word “respectively” in the third paragraph probably means ______ .

A. separately      B. particularly    C. specially         D. surprisingly

4.The writer of the story once went to _______.

A. Japan and Brazil                  B. England and Brazil

C. France and Spain                  D. Korea and Caribbean

5.From the story, we can judge the Writer might be _______ .

A. an invader      B. a carpenter     C. an adventurer       D. a prisoner
