【題目】 A great Loss-Shirley Temple dies at 85

February 12,2014

BY DERRIK J. lANG, Associated Press

Shirley Temple Black, who died on February 10th at age 85,wasn’t just a child star. She was THE child star—the sweet little girl whose shining smile helped illumine some of the darkest days the US has known during the Great Depression.

It’s hard today to imagine the super star Shirley was once “America’s Little Darling”. She sang and danced her way to the top of the box office in such films as Bright Eyes, Curly Top and Heidi. By 1940, she had appeared in 43 films. Temple teamed with Bill Robison in four movies, and their dance on the stairs in The Little Colon is still a legendary film moment.

In the 1930s, her name on a movie introduction assured (保證) a packed house. She inspired dolls, dresses, dishes—even a drink (alcohol-free, of course).

US President Franklin D. Roosevelt once famously said that “as long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right.”

Unlike so many of today’s child stars, Temple didn’t end up with her name appearing across the headlines for bad behaviors. Instead of getting her photos on front pages or struggling with drugs and alcohol, Temple went on to a second career in diplomacy (外交) , including presidential appointments as ambassador to Ghana.

She surprised a lot of people who doubted her with her grace, knowledge and eagerness to serve. In fact, her career in public service (20 years) was longer than her career in movies (19). The role she valued most, however, was as wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

The world has lost a treasured Hollywood legend. But her movies will allow that little dynamic figure to continue charming audiences for a very long time.

【1】The word “illumine” in Paragraph l means ________.

A. shorten B. sweeten

C. strengthen D. brighten

【2】Temple, as a child movie star, can best be described as ________.

A. sweet and lively B. gentle and kind

C. smart and knowledgeable D. shy and attractive

【3】What part did she regard as the most important in her life?

A. A top movie star. B. A businesswoman.

C. Her family role. D. Her diplomacy career.

【4】Where does this passage possibly come from?

C. A magazine. D. A poster.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】C

【4】B

【解析】

Dear Editor,

I’m a middle school student named Li Hua. I’m written to tell you something I don’t think is good. Recently I have noticed very many of my classmates often go to the Internet bar near our school. The other day, I go there, too. I was very shocking to see many students playing games there. In my opinion, the Internet bar should be a place that we can find much useful informations. The Internet is good if we make well use of it. Otherwise, it will do we great harm. So the local government should take measures make sure that the students use the Internet bar correct.

Yours,

Li Hua

【題目】Sydney’s Royal Botanic Gardens are to start a war on gray-headed flying foxes. These super bats have invaded one of Australia’s most famous public spaces. Officials have said the animals are destroying trees and have to move on.

These unwanted guests at Sydney’s Royal Botanic Gardens look like tiny foxes with wings. Officials have estimated there are about 11,000 of them living in the harbor-side park. After inspecting damage to dozens of trees they now believe there are twice as many as previously thought. Branches have been breaking under the weight of these furry invaders and their droppings have been poisoning plants.

Help may well be at hand, however, in the shape of the ordinary garbage bin. The gardens’ director Dr. Tim Entwistle hopes the unpleasant sounds of crashing bin lids will agitate the flying foxes and force them to move on. “The way to disturb them is to use noises, so we’ve used the loud noises made by rubbish bins in the past. You can also use speakers as long as you move the noise around, and what we’ll do is to have a series of noises, at the beginning and end of the day. What we’ve found in the past is that the flying foxes leave the gardens and go somewhere else,” said Tim.

The gray-headed flying fox is Australia’s largest bat. It flies around at night using its eyes and a powerful sense of smell to search for fruit and flowers. Officials at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney have said they’re optimistic the unwelcome colony can be uprooted. If and when the bats do move to other parts of the city they will of course then become someone else’s problem.

【1】Why do people want to get rid of the flying foxes?

A. Because the gardens are important public places.

B. Because they are polluting the city.

C. Because many garbage bins have been damaged by them.

D. Because they’re threatening the survival of trees and other plants.

【2】What are people doing to get rid of the flying foxes?

A. Shooting them. B. Making loud noises.

C. Shaking the trees hard. D. Cutting some trees down.

【3】Which of the following can replace the underlined “agitate” in Paragraph 3?

A. excite B. kill

C. disturb D. discourage

【4】What does the writer imply from the last paragraph?

A. The bats will still stay in the gardens.

B. Some other areas will have to deal with the bats.

C. The grey-headed flying fox often eats trees.

D. The damage caused by the bats is serious.

【題目】Careers in zoology are extremely varied and unique, and can provide incredible learning and work opportunities for anyone devoted to animal studies and welfare. Zoology, or the study of animals, is a wide field with many specialties, including research, conservation, veterinary (獸醫(yī)的) medicine, and the care of animals. For people with a love of animals and some training, dreams of careers in zoology may come true.

Some careers in zoology focus on research and scientific studies. These careers may allow those with a good theoretical science background to develop and run studies that improve human understanding of the animal world. Research in zoology can help create safer and more effective products for animals or can teach humans more about animal behavior in order to aid in conservation, breeding programs, and habitat preservation.

Careers in zoology that focus on conservation attach great importance to the continued survival and increased protection of animal species. Conservationists may work with political groups or governments to help make laws to protect and preserve animals, or may work in the field gathering information on potential threats to the health of global ecosystems. Some conservationists work in educational fields, trying to improve human efforts to save animals from extinction.

Animals are subject to illness and injury, and some careers in zoology help to create a safe, stable animal population. Veterinary medicine is an important specialty field, and may take several years of intensive training to qualify as a certified veterinarian. While many veterinarians focus on the small-animal practice of domestic pets, vets in rural areas often work with large farm animals and more adventurous veterinarians may work with exotic species in zoos and wildlife preserves. .

Humans love to observe animals, and modern-day zoos and wildlife preserves help meet that interest while providing facilities to assist with conservation programs. Zoology careers in zoos can range from overseeing breeding programs, to creating the proper diet for a deer, to cleaning the tiger’s cage. Many volunteer and entry-level jobs are available for people that love animals.

【1】What is the purpose of researching on animals in zoology?

A. To help governments make laws.

B. To improve researchers’ scientific knowledge.

C. To create safe and effective products for humans.

D. To educate people to protect animals.

【2】What can careers in zoology that focus on veterinary medicine help?

A. Better understand animals. B. Protect animals’ health.

C. Clean the animals’ cages. D. Increase the number of animals.

【3】Which of the following shows the structure of the whole passage?

(P1=paragraph 1; P2= paragraph 2; P3= paragraph 3; P4= paragraph 1; P5= paragraph 5;)

A. B.

C. D.

【4】What does the passage mainly present?

A. Volunteers’ passion for zoology.

B. A new idea of careers in zoology.

C. Different types of careers in zoology.

D. Effective measures of animal protection.
