accounts.
Jeongsoo's Account
I had looked ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )forward to our Cape Cod whale-watching trip all year. When we finally got on the ship, I thought, "This is it!" After a year of studying everything about whales, we were finally going to see them. Being on the ship was great. It was sunny and windy, the waves were very high, and it wasn't long before we noticed our first whale a huge finback that spouted (喷射) water up through its---- nose- just a few feet from the ship. We saw 12 whales altogether, including minke whales, humpbacks, and the endangered right whales. I recorded them all! They were the most amazing creatures I'd ever seen.
Samuel's Account
All year ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )our class had studied whales, and I worked really hard learning about them and the ocean. I could hardly wait to see the whales in their own habitat, and I was excited when we finally got on the ship. The waves were huge, though, and when the ship started moving, I began to feel strange. Then I got terrible - really, really terrible. For the whole day, I was uncomfortable with seasickness, seated in a chair in the ship's cabin. I heard everyone shouting as the whales jumped out of water and spouted, but I missed it all. Luckily, Jeongsoo recorded the whales, so I got to see his video. The whales were really wonderful.

In 1995, members of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the Sutton family were enjoying a relaxing visit and drinking beer with their good friend Billy Ray Taylor. Billy decided to go out and get a drink of water from the nearby well. As he went there, he ran back to tell everyone that he'd seen some bright lights in the sky and that everyone should go to look at the impressive scene. All the members of the Suttons stepped outside the house.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
Billy and Clan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )told the reporter, "It was a shining, three-and-a-half-foot-tall being with an oversized head, big and pointed ears, shining eyes, and hands with talons (爪) at their ends. The figure was either made of or simply dressed in silvery metal with its hands raised."
After seeing the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se figures coming out of the woods and showing the universal sign of attacking, the Suttons could not think of anything else and tried to kill the creatures.
As they shot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at the creatures which had no protection with their guns, they said that they had heard some sounds as if the aliens (外星人) were wearing some kind of metal coat. They said that the aliens turned round quickly and escaped into the darkness when shot at.
No one knows wha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t exactly happened to them, but since the Sutton family was high in spirits, they might have seen another creature. As Ufologist Renaud Leclet stated, it could be misidentification (误认) of a pair of owls (猫头鹰) which appear at night, fly silently, have yellow shining eyes and defend their nests.

34. Which of the following is Renaud’s opinion
A. The Suttons drank too much.
B. The aliens are like owls.
C. The Suttons maybe saw two owls.
D. Owls often build their nests at night.
35. The passage above is probably taken from________.
A. travel diaries
B. an entertainment magazine
C. animal stories
D. popular science
C
There are many great tourist attractions in England. Here are some.
Stonehenge is on ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e of the top tourist attractions in England. It is one of the most important prehistoric (史前的) sites in the world. It was produced by a culture that left no written records. Evidence shows that the large stones were put up around 2500 BC.

The clock has become a symbol of London and England and has appeared in many films.

It is one of the official living places of Queen Elizabeth II. She has spent many weekends of the year in the castle, using it for entertaining.

The Tower of L ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ondon served as a prison from 1100 to the mid-twentieth century. It is now home to the British Crown Jewels.

A third-grader in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Dubuque, Iowa, has become the driving force behind the installation (安装) of a "buddy bench (玩伴长凳)” activity in her school. By sitting on the bench, children can signal to others that they'd like a playmate. The bench would help students find a friend during a break. Students can ask the one on the bench if the or she needs to talk or play.
“Sometimes, durin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g a break, I see students sitting out, and they are too shy to ask people (to play)," Clare told the newspaper. Clare said she was inspired by a second-grader, Tonny, in Pennsylvania, who helped get a buddy bench in his school. She was also inspired by her elder sister, Madie, a sixth-grader who had a brain operation as a baby. Clare said her sister had little time to make friends because of medical treatments.
The effort has t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urned to the social media to ask for support. A Facebook page has encouraged community members interested in this activity to make benches in every Dubuque school. For now, Clare is focusing on getting the first one in place. Kathleen Walech-Haas, head teacher at Hoover, said she was excited to meet with Clare. "It's certainly something that I think will be a great addition to Hoover," Walech-Haas said. "Clare is a kind young girl, and I think she is a role model for a lot of people." 21·cn·jy·com
Clare said she ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) will seek some support from the community once she gets approval for the bench from the school district. At the same time, she also hopes to have monthly play events in the Dubuque area. She's working with ResourcesUnite, a community organization.
"She's an a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mazing 8-year-old, and I think it's rather inspiring," said Jash Jasper, who works with ResourcesUnite.
41. What can we learn about this "buddy bench" activity
A. It can help more students have seats.
B. It is helpful for students to make friends.
C. It can encourage students to study hard.
D. It makes students relaxed and happy at school.
42. Clare had the idea of getting a buddy bench from ______.
A. Iowa and Tonny
B. Iowa and Madie
C. Tonny and Madie
D. Madie and Walech-Haas
43. We can infer from Walech-Haas' words that ________.
A. Care's opinion will get her school's support
B. there are other things to do at Hoover
C. the school will give Clare an award
D. lots of students have to learn from Clare
44. The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )word "approval" in the fourth paragraph refers to "________".
A. some money collected
B. permission given by sb or an organization
C. monthly play events
D. praise from sb or an organization
45. What is the main idea of the passage
A. A kind girl helps her schoolmates.
B. Clare tries to get a buddy bench for students.www-2-1-cnjy-com
C. A "buddy bench" activity takes place.
D. Clare's plan has been accepted by her school.2-1-c-n-j-y

It is 50,000 meters long, 15, 000 meters wide and 306 meters deep at its deepest point. The Dead Sea, which is about 427 meters below sea level, is generally considered to be the lowest place on earth.

Its seawater has a density of 1.240 kg/L, so one in the sea cannot sink down but can get floating on the sea!

accounts.
Jeongsoo's Account
I had looked ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )forward to our Cape Cod whale-watching trip all year. When we finally got on the ship, I thought, "This is it!" After a year of studying everything about whales, we were finally going to see them. Being on the ship was great. It was sunny and windy, the waves were very high, and it wasn't long before we noticed our first whale a huge finback that spouted (喷射) water up through its---- nose- just a few feet from the ship. We saw 12 whales altogether, including minke whales, humpbacks, and the endangered right whales. I recorded them all! They were the most amazing creatures I'd ever seen.
Samuel's Account
All year ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )our class had studied whales, and I worked really hard learning about them and the ocean. I could hardly wait to see the whales in their own habitat, and I was excited when we finally got on the ship. The waves were huge, though, and when the ship started moving, I began to feel strange. Then I got terrible - really, really terrible. For the whole day, I was uncomfortable with seasickness, seated in a chair in the ship's cabin. I heard everyone shouting as the whales jumped out of water and spouted, but I missed it all. Luckily, Jeongsoo recorded the whales, so I got to see his video. The whales were really wonderful.

In 1995, members of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the Sutton family were enjoying a relaxing visit and drinking beer with their good friend Billy Ray Taylor. Billy decided to go out and get a drink of water from the nearby well. As he went there, he ran back to tell everyone that he'd seen some bright lights in the sky and that everyone should go to look at the impressive scene. All the members of the Suttons stepped outside the house.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
Billy and Clan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )told the reporter, "It was a shining, three-and-a-half-foot-tall being with an oversized head, big and pointed ears, shining eyes, and hands with talons (爪) at their ends. The figure was either made of or simply dressed in silvery metal with its hands raised."
After seeing the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se figures coming out of the woods and showing the universal sign of attacking, the Suttons could not think of anything else and tried to kill the creatures.
As they shot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at the creatures which had no protection with their guns, they said that they had heard some sounds as if the aliens (外星人) were wearing some kind of metal coat. They said that the aliens turned round quickly and escaped into the darkness when shot at.
No one knows wha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t exactly happened to them, but since the Sutton family was high in spirits, they might have seen another creature. As Ufologist Renaud Leclet stated, it could be misidentification (误认) of a pair of owls (猫头鹰) which appear at night, fly silently, have yellow shining eyes and defend their nests.

34. Which of the following is Renaud’s opinion
A. The Suttons drank too much.
B. The aliens are like owls.
C. The Suttons maybe saw two owls.
D. Owls often build their nests at night.
35. The passage above is probably taken from________.

C. animal stories
D. popular science
C

A third-grader in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Dubuque, Iowa, has become the driving force behind the installation (安装) of a "buddy bench (玩伴长凳)” activity in her school. By sitting on the bench, children can signal to others that they'd like a playmate. The bench would help students find a friend during a break. Students can ask the one on the bench if the or she needs to talk or play.
“Sometimes, durin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g a break, I see students sitting out, and they are too shy to ask people (to play)," Clare told the newspaper. Clare said she was inspired by a second-grader, Tonny, in Pennsylvania, who helped get a buddy bench in his school. She was also inspired by her elder sister, Madie, a sixth-grader who had a brain operation as a baby. Clare said her sister had little time to make friends because of medical treatments.
The effort has t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urned to the social media to ask for support. A Facebook page has encouraged community members interested in this activity to make benches in every Dubuque school. For now, Clare is focusing on getting the first one in place. Kathleen Walech-Haas, head teacher at Hoover, said she was excited to meet with Clare. "It's certainly something that I think will be a great addition to Hoover," Walech-Haas said. "Clare is a kind young girl, and I think she is a role model for a lot of people." 21·cn·jy·com
Clare said she ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) will seek some support from the community once she gets approval for the bench from the school district. At the same time, she also hopes to have monthly play events in the Dubuque area. She's working with ResourcesUnite, a community organization.
"She's an a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mazing 8-year-old, and I think it's rather inspiring," said Jash Jasper, who works with ResourcesUnite.
41. What can we learn about this "buddy bench" activity
A. It can help more students have seats.
B. It is helpful for students to make friends.
C. It can encourage students to study hard.
D. It makes students relaxed and happy at school.
42. Clare had the idea of getting a buddy bench from ______.
A. Iowa and Tonny
B. Iowa and Madie
C. Tonny and Madie
D. Madie and Walech-Haas
43. We can infer from Walech-Haas' words that ________.
A. Care's opinion will get her school's support
B. there are other things to do at Hoover
C. the school will give Clare an award
D. lots of students have to learn from Clare
44. The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )word "approval" in the fourth paragraph refers to "________".
A. some money collected
B. permission given by sb or an organization
C. monthly play events
D. praise from sb or an organization
45. What is the main idea of the passage
A. A kind girl helps her schoolmates.

It is 50,000 meters long, 15, 000 meters wide and 306 meters deep at its deepest point. The Dead Sea, which is about 427 meters below sea level, is generally considered to be the lowest place on earth.

Its seawater has a density of 1.240 kg/L, so one in the sea cannot sink down but can get floating on the sea!
