Many people often lose their friends and they don’t know how to keep a long friendship. So how can you keep a long friendship？The following passage explains very well about this matter.
The first thing you need to do is become a good listener. In this way，you show your friends that you are interested in their lives. You want to know more about them and you want to help them solve their problems. They will cherish the friendship more if they know you care about them.
The next thing is that you should respect other people’s privacy. People usually don’t like others to know about their private life，so you should show respect toward their privacy. Sometimes，they need some suggestions from others，but this does not mean that others can know about their entire life. So respect for privacy is a must for keeping a long friendship.
The third important thing is that you need to be able to forgive. You must remember that nobody is perfect in this world. It is important to forgive others and not to blame them for the mistakes they have already made. You are not perfect either. Thus you need to apologize to others for the mistakes you may have made.
Pay attention to the three things above，and you will be able to have long friendships.

There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington D.C. has the National Gallery of Art (美术馆); Paris has the Louvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.
FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.
You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically (采用电子手段) by artists in their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.
Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their work.
A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs (软盘), to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures in paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser (激光) printer.
Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Shostak says the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists will enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.

A. floppy discs
B. a computer and a printer
C. pictures and drawings on paper
D. a computer connected to the museum by telephone line

Fish cats are a kind of cats that love water and love to fish. They are like tigers and lions, only much smaller, around twice the size of our average pet cats. They live in wetlands of South Asia and mangrove forests （红树林）of South and Southeast Asia. Like many endangered species, fish cats were in danger of dying out more than twenty years ago, mainly because of the great international need for fish food and the people's cutting of the mangroves at an extremely fast speed.
Mangroves of Southeast Asia are home to a great many fantastic species, like fish cats, turtles, shorebirds and others. Mangroves can protect soil, and they can be the first line of protection between storms, tsunamis and the millions of people who live next to them. The fact is that mangroves can store almost five to ten times more CO2 than other forests. So protecting mangroves may well be like protecting five to ten times more of other forests.
Ten years ago, in South India, many people came together to change the future of their home. In less than 10 years, with international support, the state forest departments and the local people worked together to restore over 20,000 acres of unproductive fish and shrimp farms back into mangroves. Now experts are working with them in helping study and protecting the mangroves as well as the species living in them. Fish and shrimp farmers are now willing to work with experts to test the harvest of nature protection like fishes, turtles and other species in mangroves. The local farmers are encouraged to protect and plant mangroves where they have been lost. A win-win-win for fish cats, local people and the global ecosystem（生态系统）is being built.
12. What made the fish cats endangered
A. Natural enemies and environment pollution.
B. Cutting of mangroves and lack of water.
C. Being too large and need for fish food.
D. Less fish and overcutting of mangroves.
13. Why are mangroves so important
A. They can prevent extreme weather.
B. They can take in more CO2 effectively.
C. They help plants grow better on the soil.
D. They are perfect home to all species.
14. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Ways of turning farms into forests.
B. Changes of South India in 10 years.
C. Efforts to protect the mangroves.
D. Work in protecting shrimps.
15. What's the best title for the text
A. Fish Cats and Mangroves Protection
B. The Importance of Mangroves
C. Ways to Protect Fish Cats
D. Man and Nature
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Teenagers who start the school day really early are likely to weigh slightly more than those who start later. That's the finding of a new study of nearly 30,000 ____41____(Canada) between the ages of 10 and 18.
Getting too little sleep can put kids ____42____ risk for a number of problems. Sleepy teens are more likely to be overweight, to have trouble ____43____(concentrate)and to struggle in school. Genevieve Gariepy, who works at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, wanted to know ____44____ earlier school start times might be connected with weight. So she decided to home in on the impact of school start times.
Her team collected start times for 362 Canadian schools. Then they asked students at those schools ____45____(give) their height and weight. In all, they collected data from nearly 30,000 10-to 18-year-olds. Among 6th-to 10th-graders, those who started school earlier were likely to be slightly ____46____(heavy) for their height. Every 10-minute delay in school start time ____47____(connect), on average, with a slightly lower weight among students who were ____48____ same sex, age and height. ____49____, the difference is slight. Healthy eating and getting enough exercise will play a bigger role in keeping a healthy weight.
Because the study compared kids who already started school at different times of day, it's not clear that changing school start time would help heavier kids lose weight. To know for sure, researchers would want to compare the same kids before _____50_____ after changing to a later school start time.

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是几天前作者吃了室友买来的零食而食物中毒的事情。
【详解】1.考查副词。句意：几天前，我的室友李华从超市买了一包零食。通篇时态是一般过去时，因此文章讲述的是过去的事情，因此是“几天前”，即several days ago，故将later改为ago。
2.考查被动语态。句意：我们被邀请去享受它们。我室友买的零食，因此我们是被邀请去享受它们，句子用被动语态，即was/were done，主语We是复数，时态是一般过去时，因此We后的be动词是were，故在invited前加were。
3.考查时态。句意：然而，饭后，我们都中毒了，胃痛，我们的脸苍白。通篇时态是一般过去时，get应用过去式got。故将get改为got。
4.考查名词的复数。句意：然而，饭后，我们都中毒了，胃痛，我们的脸苍白。我们的脸不止一张，因此face应用复数，故将face改为faces。
5.考查副词。句意：我们很快被送到附近的一家医院。修饰动词sent应用副词quickly，故将quick改为quickly。
6.考查代词。句意：医生检查了我们，给了我们一些药。由A doctor examined us可知，医生检查完我们后给我们药，gave后的宾语是“我们”，且用宾格，即us。故将them改为us。
7.考查副词。句意：幸运的是，我们服药后不久就脱离了危险。由we were out of danger可知，我们脱离了危险，这是幸运的，即Fortunately。故将Unfortunately改为Fortunately。
8.考查使役动词的用法。句意：这次事故使我意识到食品安全问题的严重性。make作使役动词，其后跟不带to的不定式，即make sb. do sth.，故去掉to。
9.考查名词。句意：这次事故使我意识到食品安全问题的严重性。我们中毒是“食品安全问题”，是food safety problem，故将safe改为safety。
10.考查固定短语。句意：我真诚地希望全社会都应该注意食品安全。take notice of是固定短语，意为“注意”，故将in改为of。

Niagara Falls The maid of the mist boat tour may leave you fully wet, but it won’t wet your spirit on your trip. When you’re not admiring the falls, enjoy the blossoms at the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens. Or, visit the Aquarium (水族馆) of Niagara, which has more than1,500 species of aquatic animals.

Many people often lose their friends and they don’t know how to keep a long friendship. So how can you keep a long friendship？The following passage explains very well about this matter.
The first thing you need to do is become a good listener. In this way，you show your friends that you are interested in their lives. You want to know more about them and you want to help them solve their problems. They will cherish the friendship more if they know you care about them.
The next thing is that you should respect other people’s privacy. People usually don’t like others to know about their private life，so you should show respect toward their privacy. Sometimes，they need some suggestions from others，but this does not mean that others can know about their entire life. So respect for privacy is a must for keeping a long friendship.
The third important thing is that you need to be able to forgive. You must remember that nobody is perfect in this world. It is important to forgive others and not to blame them for the mistakes they have already made. You are not perfect either. Thus you need to apologize to others for the mistakes you may have made.
Pay attention to the three things above，and you will be able to have long friendships.
4. This passage is written to tell us ________.
A. why a long friendship is important
B. what we can do for our friends
C. how to make friends with others
D. how to keep a long friendship
5. According to the passage，what is the first thing that we need to do
A. To know more about our friends.

D. To help our friends solve their problems.
6. From Paragraph 3 we know that ________.
A. we should never share our private lives with others
B. some people never care about their privacy
C. it is important to respect other people’s privacy
D. some people like sharing their privacy
7. The writer most probably thinks that ________.

There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington D.C. has the National Gallery of Art (美术馆); Paris has the Louvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.
FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.
You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically (采用电子手段) by artists in their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.
Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their work.
A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs (软盘), to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures in paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser (激光) printer.
Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Shostak says the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists will enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.

A. floppy discs

Fish cats are a kind of cats that love water and love to fish. They are like tigers and lions, only much smaller, around twice the size of our average pet cats. They live in wetlands of South Asia and mangrove forests （红树林）of South and Southeast Asia. Like many endangered species, fish cats were in danger of dying out more than twenty years ago, mainly because of the great international need for fish food and the people's cutting of the mangroves at an extremely fast speed.
Mangroves of Southeast Asia are home to a great many fantastic species, like fish cats, turtles, shorebirds and others. Mangroves can protect soil, and they can be the first line of protection between storms, tsunamis and the millions of people who live next to them. The fact is that mangroves can store almost five to ten times more CO2 than other forests. So protecting mangroves may well be like protecting five to ten times more of other forests.
Ten years ago, in South India, many people came together to change the future of their home. In less than 10 years, with international support, the state forest departments and the local people worked together to restore over 20,000 acres of unproductive fish and shrimp farms back into mangroves. Now experts are working with them in helping study and protecting the mangroves as well as the species living in them. Fish and shrimp farmers are now willing to work with experts to test the harvest of nature protection like fishes, turtles and other species in mangroves. The local farmers are encouraged to protect and plant mangroves where they have been lost. A win-win-win for fish cats, local people and the global ecosystem（生态系统）is being built.
12 What made the fish cats endangered
A. Natural enemies and environment pollution.
B. Cutting of mangroves and lack of water.
C. Being too large and need for fish food.
D Less fish and overcutting of mangroves.
13. Why are mangroves so important
A. They can prevent extreme weather.
B. They can take in more CO2 effectively.
C. They help plants grow better on the soil.
D. They are perfect home to all species.
14. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Ways of turning farms into forests.
B. Changes of South India in 10 years.
C. Efforts to protect the mangroves.
D. Work in protecting shrimps.
15. What's the best title for the text
A. Fish Cats and Mangroves Protection
B. The Importance of Mangroves
C. Ways to Protect Fish Cats
D. Man and Nature
